Dear Group and Arjun,

 

This is a wonderful discussion but I think the list

and Arjun is accusing baselessly of Sri Ramakrishna of

indulging in sex. This is Sri Ramakrishna's statement

in the Gospel. " I have never enjoyed any women

sexually, yes not even in my dreams, I have always

maintained the attitude of a child towards my Mother".

Please Please dont accuse baselessly without reading

his Shakta Sadhana and the Gospel. There are many

devotees (me included) who are on the list who are his

devotees and follow his method of sadhana and we get

hurt by such baseless accusations. He did perform some

of the tantra sadhana's(under bhairavi brahmanis

tutelage) wherein he watched a couple making love and

he found that it was the Divine Mother who was the

real enjoyer.

 

But as the Group has discussed, for kaulas who are

initiated into the practise this is a path not for

everyone. For the rest who are not initiated its best

to follow Sri Ramakrishna's advice wherein to a tantra

sadhaka intent on following Vira sadhana he said "Its

a very difficult path and prone to failure, best is to

have an attitude of Mother towards all women and see

the Divine Mother". He never ever said that treating

Divine Mother as a lover was an invalid path (when

making love to a woman) but it was very difficult. So

Arjun can you please refer me to sources wherein it

said that Sri Ramakrishna had sex, he never did. Dont

dissapoint me by saying you heard somewhere. You are

gossiping on a person of Iconic status whose life and

sadhana is well documented. Its not that its bad, its

just that in your overzealousness of defending your

practises you are doing blasphemy.

 

Again I totally accept the kaula way of sadhana just

dont slander meaninglessly to prove your point.

He is born in vain, who having attained the human birth, so difficult to get,

does not attempt to realize God in this very life.

93,

 

It is not that i was speaking about Ramakrishna with no respect. I do

respect him very highly.

And with that i say that he had practised sex. It isn't my own guess

only. At least two persons told me the same - my kula-guru in

Tara-vidya, direct successor of Sri Vamakshepa, and a Sri-vidya priest

in Malaysia. I have seen some suggesting lines in some lifestory of

Ramakrishna also.

 

Best regards,

A.
