Guest guest Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 MAX WRITES: ; I love the avadhutas. When they spit on someone, it is prasad. When >they strike a blow, it takes away negative karma, or lifts awareness >in some way. However, I've never heard of one who was concerned to >protest that others did not recognize their enlightenment, accept >their teachings, or for that matter, gave a damn what anyone else >thinks of them. Quite the opposite. RAJI'S REPLY I have also read that sometimes they use the above method to keep away the crowd, But AS YOU mentioned that it becomes a PRASAD and it can turn other way round OR sometimes they use the above method to choose thier disciple - For Example:- it can be an elimination process - the one who could withstand all their abuses is indeed the one who is in real search OF GOD and fit to be their disciple. RAMAKRISHANA also used the method of ignoring Vivekananda to test his sincerity.. I have never read that an avadoot wandering naked to exihit that HE OR SHE IS A REALISED SOUL l. A realised soul do attimes carry out some miracles - it is the way to enforce faith in the mind of THIER disciple. >MAX WROTE; >Illusion or not, paradoxical behavior notwithstanding, anyone merged >with the Divine Source is acting out of love.

There is no form >there, nor name, neither Krishna nor Rama nor incarnations." iN STANZA 63-64 of Lalitha Sahasranamam - where goddess says that she ALONE is BRAHMA, VISHNU AND SHIVA. I hope Nora can post its meaning in detail. I read her positng on LS. > >> > > >Dear Moderator, My question is regarding ARDHA NARISHWAR. As we proceed towards the inner circle of SRI CHAKRA, goddess becomes ARDHA NARISHWAR (If I understand correctly). If so, then where does sex comes, she is the one who is a male as well as a female - inturn she who makes love to herself. LOVING ONESELF where does love between devi and shiva comes. sECONDLY, wHEN goddess can create as many shiva's then how can she make LOVE TO THE ONE WHOM SHE HAS CREATED FROM WITHIN. In fact, are we suggesting that AS BAKTHA proceeds towards his sadhana focused on reaching THE inner circle , he experiences the oneness WITH HIMSELF THAT IS TRUE HAPPINESS. OR BLISS (WHERE everything vanishes other than happiness. when does or at what stage physical sex PLAYES a part in devi worship. I have also read that when KUNDALINI is awakened then sexual urge increases - if so, how a sadhak handles it. what are the symptoms of KUNDALINI BEING AWAKENED. How, does he proceed further. Sri Ramakrishana who himself is a devi Bhakta strongly recommends CELIBACY. He had incorporated many faith and concluded that all leads to the same and universal path. When I read your article, I did gather the same meaning. Please guide me if my understanding is wrong. raji. _______________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar – get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
