In the Regeneration and Divinisation of Human Beings

Chapter 4: The Nature of Reality : 5.10. 5. Brahman as God or Ishvara-10. All reality known to us is limited to this Self. We love and possess things, we speak, act and think, because we are the Self of that which is loved, possessed, spoken, done and thought. The world subsists in our Consciousness which is the Great Self of all. Aught else than our Self is nothing; the Self is the “Vaishvanara”, God of all, and all are, because He is. Our Self and His Self are one; whatever is outside us, is also inside us : - “In reality, great as this external space is, so great is this space within the heart; in it are contained both the heaven and the earth, both fire and air, both sun and moon, lightning and stars, whatever is here, and whatever is not here—everything thereof is contained within it.” —Chh. Up., VIII. 1. 3. Swami Krishnananda   To be continued  ..

Democracy has certain weaknesses. Some of these are discussed below:    Ref : The demerits are also many but the worst is the hoards of parties that are mushrooming in the country. Anybody disgruntled from the party bosses, starts his own party. Likewise, having some ideological differences with the party line, may also lead to formation of a new party. Can you imagine, India has got more than 2000 parties on date? The result is that no party is able to gain majority in the true sense of the word.Sometimes it look like a mockery of the system. 1. Quantity rather than Quality: It lays emphasis on quantity as opposed to quality. Every person whether stupid or genius is treated equal while inequality is ...

We came here to sip the honey, and we find our hands and feet sticking to it. We are caught, though we came to catch. We came to enjoy; we are being enjoyed. We came to rule; we are being ruled. We came to work; we are being worked. All the time, we find that...

Chapter 4: The Nature of Reality : 5.9 5. Brahman as God or Ishvara-9. This does not suggest that God can be divided into aspects or cut into parts, but only means figuratively that God is not in any way limited but is above manifestation, though He is also the Self of all that is manifested. God is both immanent and transcendent, for He is present in every speck of the universe, and yet transcends it to an inconceivable extent. Truth is neither a pantheism nor a deism which consider God as either wholly exhausted in the world or existing wholly beyond the world. The universe is one organic unity sustained by the single being of God, of whom everything is a part, and who is the inner and outer reality of everything. Absolutism is the highest point, the culmination of all true philosophy, according to which the Absolute Spirit or the Absolute God is the only Reality. The accidental attributes, the tatastha-lakshanas of the Absolute, make it appear as Ishvara, whose existenc...

The realization of the ideal is the effect. The means are the cause: attention to the means, therefore, is the great secret of life. We also read this in the Gita and learn that we have to ...
