Not that other cultures neglect spirituality,

 

Not that other cultures neglect spirituality,

but it is only the Indian culture in which spirituality permeates life,

in which spirituality is the pivot around which all other activities revolve.

 

---------but i find contemporary events unfolding deteriorated values in practice, indicative of the very thin spirituality, nominal or nonexistent

 

 During its glorious period, India produced great religion, great philosophies,

 great literature, art , poetry, great science and medicine,

and has also been great in its organization, politics, trade and commerce.

But all these activities stretched beyond the mental level, and reflected the vital contact that the Indian mind has always had with the spirit.

 

 -----this light of self realization is now missing This has often been misunderstood, and our ‘other-worldliness’ has been blamed for many of our problems.

The peculiarity of the Indian culture is that it has not placed worldly life and spirituality in two neat compartments, but has sought to spiritualize worldly activities.

 

The ideal of Indian culture has been a balanced pursuit of kama (desire), artha (the means to fulfill desire), dharma (right conduct, within the framework of which kama and artha have to be pursued) and moksha (liberation), which is the ultimate aim of life, for which worldly life is a vehicle and an aid.

It was also understood that the emphasis on different aspects of this quartet would vary at different stages of life.

 

----due to absence of the light of self realization, all misinterpretations and misunderstanding is now prevailing"

 

Happiness due to the compromise, is called alpa santosh, of a simpleton

 

 ''na alpe sukhamastu''---there is no real happiness in small gains

man in india has missed the track , been left behind he has dropped all attempts to rise to the true divinity, just losing all opportunities to live as a master of the universe, his birth right as the son of supreme all mighty god"

 

"Happiness can be a result of compromise, accepting defeat, failures , inadequacies, incapacitates, in the name of fate, karma, surrender , self deceptive escape route to avoid challenges , from inside or from outside. in effect, it is living a just death like vegetative life lacking in initiative, impulse, enterprise, which are characteristics of a dynamic purposeful life

all due to misunderstanding the true spiritual principles which can be known only thru the light of self realization which is significantly missing despite all available best teachings , and in spite of the best glorious golden past

 

 

 

"During most of the 16th and 17th centuries, fear of heretics spreading teachings and opinions that contradicted the Bible dominated the Catholic Church. They persecuted scientists who formed theories the Church deemed heretical and forbade people from reading any books on those subjects by placing the books on the Index of Prohibited Books. A type of war between science and religion was in play but there would be more casualties on the side of science.

 

Nicholas Copernicus and Galileo Galilei were two scientists who printed books that later became banned. Copernicus faced no persecution when he was alive because he died shortly after publishing his book. Galileo, on the other hand, was tried by the Inquisition after his book was published. Both scientists held the same theory that the Earth revolved around the sun, a theory now known to be true. However, the Church disapproved of this theory because the Holy Scriptures state that the Earth is at the center, not the Sun. As the contents of the Bible were taken literally, the publishing of these books proved, to the Church, that Copernicus and Galileo were sinners; they preached, through their writing, that the Bible was wrong."

 

all controversies perceived or appear to have been created , are the reflections of one's own inner unreconciled, unresolved controversies and chaos that persists as a conditioning of the mind, unable to see something new or different this is the inability on the part of the receiver to '' sync'' different streams of thoughts, flowing in different directions, in different hues, conforming, confirming, contradicting, opposing, repelling, rebelling, revolting, repulsing but all trying to reach a common destination, the one truth it is like, water, going as vapor, cloud, rain , streams, rivers, all different, trying to reach the ocean which is silence, the truth , the one real entity i see everything , every blog, poem, dialog, repartee, fun, ridicule, all wonderfully happening ,simply as an attempt to reach the oceanic silence , the non changing one truth, within one side as long as that all- synchronizing silence is not established in one's system, one will get disturbed, perturbed, annoyed, excited, incited, consulted , insulted, crushed, crashed , defeated, frustrated, outwitted, by anything, by any one with whom one encounters so one needs to gain that ability to sync, then one sees order in disorder , solutions in controversies, universities in diversities, beauty in the filth, wealth in the waste"

 

Someone ,if do not have essential value will create nuisance value.??

it's individual reader's ability to make essential value out of all values presented, whether it is sense, nonsense, nuisance, new sense, new science, absurdity, obscenity, divinity, devilish, foolish , trivial, profound, intelligible, idle scribble, i make the meaning and take home the essence , not from the stuff given, but from the way i explore myself within with the stuff encountered good or bad"

 

no negativity or pessimism at all , in any of the blogs , and particularly, in the controversial blog referred with 2000 plus conversations do people select such topics----1.Knowingly or unknowingly to irritate others,??no ---not at all ---i see no such intentions, do people select such topics--2.just to promote their or their Teacher's path breaking ,revolutionary philosophy.

no ---not at all --------none can truly promote or sale or do door to door marketing on any philosophy on the other hand , in fact , every saint/ philosopher/thinker, writer, seer, have discovered fresh angles of truth, and just did their loud thinking, which did create flutters , did made people to relook revise improve their frozen ideas and update

pioneer just moves forward, does not wait for commoners' approval / acceptance, / ,permission that is how progress is made in the world"
