On the other hand, as you all know, the modern physical researches are tending more and more to demonstrate that what is real is but the finer; the gross is simply appearance.

However that may be, we have seen that if any theory of religion can stand the test of modern reasoning, it is the Advaita, because it fulfils its two requirements.


It is the highest generalisation, beyond even personality, generalisation which is common to every being.

A generalisation ending in the Personal God can never be universal, for, first of all, to conceive of a Personal God we must say, He is all-merciful, all-good.



But this world is a mixed thing, some good and some bad.

We cut off what we like, and generalise that into a Personal God!

Just as you say a Personal God is this and that, so you have also to say that He is not this and not that.

And you will always find that the idea of a Personal God has to carry with it a personal devil.



That is how we clearly see that the idea of a Personal God is not a true generalisation, we have to go beyond, to the Impersonal.

In that the universe exists, with all its joys and miseries, for whatever exists in it has all come from the Impersonal.

What sort of a God can He be to whom we attribute evil and other things?

The idea is that both good and evil are different aspects, or manifestations of the same thing.

The Essence of Dharma-23.

23/02/2018 Spoken on February 11th, 1973) This is the concept of dharma, of the duty of man in the universe, the nature of which is thus explained. Dharma has sometimes been regarded as one of the four purusharthas: dharma, artha, kama, moksha. This is the sum and substance of Hinduism. The essence of the religion of India is summed up in a phrase: dharma, artha, kama, moksha. If you are asked by anyone what is Hinduism, simply say, “Dharma, artha, kama, moksha.” This is Hinduism: a blend of these four concepts of duty. Hinduism is always a blend. It is never a one-sided affair. It has no name. ‘Hinduism’ is not the name of this religion. It is the name that is foisted upon it by Westerners, not knowing what it is. We have no name for our religion. It is not founded by any person. It is universal, capable of absorbing everything into itself like a menstruum. It is sanatana dharma, eternal dharma. It is eternal religion forever applicable to all persons of all creeds and sexes.
