Guest guest Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 WOW! even in the olden days , Great sages were seduced by celestial nymphs .. sage vishwamitra by Menaka , the beautiful apsara... His problenm was no so much 'lust' his problem wa more in the domain of a bloated 'ego and false pride ... and i like your approach! And to be honest there is nothing wrong if a guru is asexual entity !!! Sage VASISHTA was married to a beautiful lady named Arundati and he wrote the Yoga VASISHTA - He was no ordinary rishi- he was a brahmarishi ... Lord Dattatreya - a tantrik guru - an avadhuta - a 'free spirited 'self realized soul ' wrote the Dattatreya gita a wonderful book ... He was often swimming in the river woth a bunch of naked women ... He roamed around 'naked too' ... Nakedness was never considered 'bad' in those vedic times... IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, TO BE CELIBATE IS EASY- it is not that hard .. but what is hard to LET GO OF THIS FALSE E-GO LOVE AND (((((((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))) Ffor a onderful soul-ful post that comes from one's experience instad of parroting platitudes and cliches , "Emanuele De Benedetti" <e.debenedetti@t...> wrote: > Dear Shivani > do you really know what you state here > or is it just your concept and hope? > And if you know how do you know? > It would be nice if it were true, > but in my experience even the perfect avatar > has some human weakness, > and to me that is his strength, > a real human is human, > a real divine is fully incarnated in a human body, > what a marvel, what a mystery! > May be in the old times of the Vedas > beings like you describe were possible and useful to that society. > Today the evolutionary process of this particular manifestation > is going in another direction and that kind of perfection > is not needed. > At least is not needed in the western world. > Many people awaken without satisfying that standard of perfection. > And still they are a perfect embodiment of Truth, > I can feel it in my Heart. > > in love > marifa > > > - > "*~ ShiVaNi SaNnYaSiNi ~*" <mysticambrosia333> > <> > Sunday, April 25, 2004 7:00 AM > ~*~ Re: Let us play ... here is a word game ... > ~*~ > > > > ~*~ Shivani Sannyasini Wrote: > > > > ~*~*~*~ Namaste Adi Shakti! ~*~*~*~ > > > > An truely Illumined Guru is not a 'person' nor a 'human' but Pure > > Divinity~Spirit unsullied. > > > > A truely Illumined Guru is established in Nirvikalpa Samadhi and has > > the merging of Saguna Brahman And Nirguna Brahman as his/her Being. > > > > A truely Illumined Guru is Sat~Chit~Ananda Brahman Absolute and Knows > > that naught else than the Pure Brahman Absolute exists. > > > > To regard a truely Illumined Being~Guru as a 'person' or 'human' is a > > mistake.
