Satsangam

I should be very glad to see a man who could show me something which is good all the time, and something which is bad all the time. The storm that kills my friend I call evil, but that may have saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people by killing the bacilli in the air. The Impersonal God we propose is not a relative God; therefore it cannot be said that It is either good or bad, but that It is something beyond, because It is neither good nor evil."

         Ref : Students duty to study, and not politics; Teachers duty to teach, and not politics, Today, few teachers and students take stupid lessons  from some foolish  political parties and leaders, such as Communists, Congress, and  stupid  bunch; Listen What  Swami Vivekananda  says -

    26.

Such a Personal God can be established with a great deal of reason.
Such a Personal God is explicable as the highest manifestation of the Impersonal.

You and I are very low manifestations, and the Personal God is the highest of which we can conceive.
Nor can you or I become that Personal God.

When the Vedanta says you and I are God, it does not mean the Personal God.
To take an example.

Out of a mass of clay a huge elephant of clay is manufactured, and out of the same clay, a little clay mouse is made.
Would the clay mouse ever be able to become the clay elephant?

But put them both in water and they are both clay; as clay they are both one, but as mouse and elephant there will be an eternal difference between them.
The Infinite, the Impersonal, is like the clay in the example.

We and the Ruler of the Universe are one, but as manifested beings, men, we are His eternal slaves, His worshippers.

Thus we see that the Personal God remains.
Everything else in this relative world remains, and religion is made to stand on a better foundation.
Therefore it is necessary, that we first know the Impersonal in order to know the Personal.

Thank you for reading
      JAIHIND.
     To be continued...

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.
