Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Namaste All, One of the problems when dealing with diverse philosophies is the different stages or paths people are on. This is why there are several yogas in the Gita. I use the word ultimately a lot because I understand that people attribute a relative validity to creation, whilst they are in it. The mind is ultimately unreal, and everything is mind or thought stuff. What is that? So in this unreal mind there are infinite possibilities of beliefs, such as energy, kundalini, goddess, devas, angels, people, animals, plants etc. All just moving pictures on the screen of Brahman. Even physics is reaching the same conclusion!!! Even Saguna is unreal because of the attributes. If people want to use goddesses and energies to help them on the road to one-pointedness that is fine, it is a different path. There is no attack by me on people who want to take that path, and I expect no attack on me for the path I have taken. Mansour and Jesus suffered death for daring to contradict religious dogma. I'm not in their league and only a neophyte in comparison to the Vipassana of the Buddha, but I don't suffer from delusion, except for the ultimate one, the false ego. If this list cannot bear the enquiry into 'religion', then where is the freedom? It is based on Ramana's 'Who am I?' after all. Which is essentially no different from the Buddha's Vipassana method, which finds out we are just changing vibrations. A particle accelerator does the same thing in science! I will say again ultimately there is no God, Goddess, or even ourselves or the world........ONS........Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
