Holidays are coming

[Guest guest]

Welcome back Greg-ji! For those who may not know, Sri Greg-ji is one of the

most brilliant and wise philosophers and has just returned from an

international satsang tour.

 

I am still catching up with the e-mail. Thank you Andrew for that

description of Ramanaashram at Nova Scotia. Now I want to go visit that

place. And thank you Mace for that stunning photography and poetry. Is the

photography your own? It is very clear and beautiful.

 

Thanks Robert for the post on diffused awareness. I invite you and Mike and

Annette, and Pham, and Mark, Bruce, and Greg, and Jessica, Jan, Wim, David,

Mary, Jerry, Wim, Michael and all who are interested in writing something

for the HS Magazine. Of course stuff from the very brilliant Ivan is

expected as well. Thanks by the way for posting about Ramana Maharshi a

couple of weeks ago Ivan and I enjoyed reading it. We have had some

wonderful submissions from great authors which are much appreciated and it

looks like things are more or less on schedule and we should be ready to

release the website and magazine by January 1, 2001, the second anniversary

of .

 

Thanks Gloria and Amanda and Linda and Holly, and Jerrysan Rinpoche and Mace

for keeping things on track here. The Holiday season is approaching and

probably people will get more busy with personal and family things. The

underlying theme among the great religions has always been universal love,

compassion, and nonviolence. The Jain sage Mahavir, the prophet of

nonviolence, advised humanity to prosper through mutual help and support for

each other. Mahavir's contemporary Buddha emphasized compassion as a key

principle for living. Jesus (I think said), "Love your neighbor as yourself

for God is Love." I am not familiar with all major religions but one can

find similar sentiments among most of their founders. Saints and men and

women of God of different times and different religions have arrived at the

same conclusions about how it is best for people to relate to each other.

 

I pray that we all reflect on and understand the deeper meaning of the

teachings of our various religions and understand the common message for

mutual learning, teaching, acceptance, and support for each other.

 

Love to all

Hi Harsha-ji,

 

Thanks for the great welcome! I too appreciated Andrew's description of

the Ramanasramam in Nova Scotia, and it was very much like my stay there

about 4 years ago.

 

I think I'll write an article about another way of (self)inquiry - called

the Sevenfold Reasoning. It's been discussed a little bit on Moller-ji's

intense and practice-oriented Advaita-Ashram list.

 

Harsha-ji, I appreciate the utter sweetness and flawless wisdom of the

ahimsa method that you and your electronic Satsangh articulate and embody

so well. How great it is to have this deceptively simple but vastly

profound Jain teaching right in the midst of the cyber-verse!

 

Love to all,

 

--Greg

All paths go somewhere. No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights,

perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside

back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than

the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of

Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It is

Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the Finality

of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of Self-Knowledge,

spontaneously arising from within into It Self. Welcome all to

a.
