Guest guest Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 RELEVANCE AND ACTION PLAN FOR US Kashmir Shaivism inspires us for both material and spiritul progress. It stresses positive acceptance of material world rather than the philosophy of escapism. Thus it can serve as a sound basis for organising our lives. We can rather say that God has made man in His own image. It is His Own Maya Shakti which makes man to see differently. Therefore, real joy can be gained as we live in this world and go about our work. Avoiding suppression and denial like great puritans, we should exercise moderation in living and turning away from the ambition of wealth, power and pleasures of senses. This will prepare us for the inward journey to realize God The youth should remember that no problem of individual, society or nation is to be ignored. A person can not succeed in any aim of life if he shuts his eyes towards these problems. The whole life of Lord Krishna as depicted in Mahabharta is a glowing example of practical Shaivism. We may enjoy tasteful worldly objects as per the tradition but consider or ponder over their origin from “the Divine Glory”. This will enable us to look for God in every individual, see everything as His creation, etc., leading to maximum love and harmony. \r\n Even as elderly person we should be totally in world yet totally liberated from within. This example incorporated in our lives will definitely create an inspiration for others. \r\n We have emphasised the personal experience for self-recognition leading to self-realisation. One may chose to continue with present tradition and slowly try to orient to some of blissful methods. The various means present versitility so that one develops rapport and discovers thrill with this philosophy. \r\n Concluding, let us work for upliftment as our goal. With our own effort we should change and strive for enlightenment. Let this change permeate from person to family, to state and nation as a whole. Leading to universal good this will usher in a peaceful and conflict free world.

For our sadhana Kashmir Shaivism emphasises the personal experience for self-recognition leading to self-realisation. One may chose to continue with present tradition and slowly try to orient to some of blissful methods. The various means have been prescribed in Vighanbhairav. Indeed, these present versitility so that one develops rapport and discovers thrill with this philosophy. Concluding, let us work for upliftment as our goal.
