"Thanks, but the hard reality is ''knowledge gained out of extensive studies of scriptures '' will not ''culminate in experience of the indwelling presence.....''since '' the indwelling presence....'' is in the realm totally beyond the range of the intellect , all scriptures are the detailed expression of the one truth , ie summed up in the for maha vakyasaham brahma asmithath thvam asi,sarvam khalvidam brahmaayam atma brahma knowing all these and the extensive details about these , understanding and interpreting these will not provide that experience of ''brahma '' the supreme, it will give only may give detailed maps, but will not take to the destination, unless one undertakes the journey and persists till one reaches that state so our wise spirituals have instituted the ''upanaana'' , manthropadesha, initiation in the process art of meditation , that too in the earliest part of life, that too thru a live guru parampara to enable one to reach that blessed state thru this experience of '' being'' one becomes able to access the store house of the essence of all knowledge, and gain insights and come out in the form of cognitive expressions, ie scripturesso scriptures is not the means, but it is the end products of realization and the advice has been '' go forward not to get stuck in the jungle of scriptures , including vedasone must be able to access and express the vedas that exist in one's inside, not from books and lectures and recitations finally, simply, guru shows the way , but he shows only the way , shishya has to do the journey himself and find the ultimate for himself"

"We need not be particular on ''who'' is the composer, let's focus on ''what'' the content, and its beauty and it's effect on the readers.in shankaras expression i find mostly abundance of ''unmanifest'' in his stuthis on devi devathas, a freedom, a relief from the ''manifest'', a liberation, and a finality, nothing more to aspire..... all in the state of advaitic , kaivalya, union in this jagannath astakam i find the proportion of ''manifest'' is more than the ''unmanifest'', and leads us to be in the glories of manifest , rather , in a sweet bondage in the rasa aspect, tyet wanting to be in the quest of ''object'' as per this prayer ''Oh! Lord! Jagannātha! May you be (bhavatu) the object of my (‘me’) vision (nayanapathagāmī), indicative that he is yet to reach him and the followers, like ISKCON are more intent on the nama roopa guna s , where as lord has said one has to reach his transcendental divinity, not be on the relative level, in the duality of '' me and thou '' however glorious the duality may be that is how i perceive that this astakam is from chaitanya only this is just my feeling, truth remains what ever it is , god knows"

"If some considers that he has some ''goods'' he has infinite choices to pass on them to the world , one can donate, exchange, sell, make a living out of it, he can also do aggressive salesmanship, offer free gifts, discounts, door to door marketing, advertise, or cheating on poor quality, or push though it though obsolete outdated and even see that other fellow does not come in his way by any of means fair or foul, all knowingly or innocently or by compulsion , he may denigrate with loudmouth that others goods are inferior , though of superior quality .finally the consumer is the ultimate factor in deciding the real worth, though he may enjoy the fun for a while time proves , sathyam eva jayathe"

"Yes, i too do not mean to negate material world. but to gain the ability to engage in conscious decisions and actions while being in material world. , he asked to rise in higher consciousness, ''nishthraigunyo bhava'' It also means, achieve the most in all the 4 varnas in life which is dharma, artha, kaama and moksha.., but key is to be '' nitya sathvastho niryogakshemamamaathmavaan ''."

"We must raise ourselves to that level of divinity where there will not be a need to fight at all.that level of divinity makes one saturated with sweetest divine love which does find any other than oneself in the universe , one becomes the universe whole, lives his vishva roopa india became weak and confused lapsed into inaction, and into degeneration for the one single reason that indians lost the access to sathya , for which the means is tapasya the enemy is within, so the solution for all the problems is to raise ourselves first foremost, earliest in life , and lead a life of vishva vijetha any other solution is ineffective , so let's not get distracted by any number of encounters from outside"
