Religion and Social Values-1.7.

-
"READ CAREFULLY, AND THEN KEEP THE ESSENCE IN YOUR MIND EVER; THIS IS THE ANSWER FOR PAKISTAN AND OTHER TERROR SPONSORING ISLAMIC COUNTRIES; MAJORITY OIL RICH MUSLIM COUNTRIES MIS-USE RELIGION; THEY ARE IGNORANT ABOUT THE SOCIAL VALUES OF RELIGION; OTHERWISE THEY WHY THEY ARE SPONSORING TERRORIST, AND EXPORT TERROR TO PEACEFUL LIVING COUNTRIES."

 "BHARATHAM REALIZED THE TRUTH OF RELIGION AND SOCIAL VALUES, SINCE ANCIENT DAYS FROM GREAT MAHARISHI-S"


Chapter 1: The Circumstances in Which We Have to Live in the World-7.

This very difficult-to-understand situation of our own mental operations is perhaps the background of very bitter analyses which were ruthlessly conducted by psychoanalysis about the nature of man in this world.

Medical examination is not always a pleasant thing to undergo.

Very unpleasant it is, for various reasons.

And even to find time to go deep into our own mental makeup is not a happy thing.

When we go into the corners of the citadel in which we are living, we will not scent fragrance, and perhaps we will not find even a clean floor to sit upon.

Within ourselves is a world of dustbins, cobwebs, and undiscovered, uninhabited abysmal niches which refuse to come to the surface, or into the daylight of understanding.

There are corners in our own selves which we do not want to see.

Swami Krishnananda

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.
