Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 Dear Sriman Ramkumarji, Ref:: Reply to brahman and "ugly" things Digest No. 681 The terms Ugly/Stinking etc are only relative things. Nothing is ugly/stinking in the absolute terms. A pig may look ugly to human beings (though some even eat it) but it is a sweet heart to its mate. One should realize that everything undergoes a cycle. Whatever ugly/stinking we see is converted to manure which promote the growth of plants/food which is again consumed by living beings. All the stink/feces referred in the email, is in fact is generated in one's body as a wastage in the last compartment till it is excreted. If an architect builds a house for his client he designs kitchen, bedrooms and toilets everything for the clients comfort but the client does'nt highlight his work with toilets. Similarly Brahman constitute the whole universe and we don't start highlighting Him through the stink which is only to us. Finally scientifically speaking all the matter constitutes the standard elements/atoms of the periodic table with protons/electrons/neutrons etc and it is known that how much energy is released from an atom bomb; and how this is possible if everything is not a part of the Brahman. JaiSrimannarayana Kilambi Ramakrishna Ramanuja dasan Message: 4 Fri, 16 Aug 2002 14:45:10 -0000 "tg_ramkumar" <tg_ram brahman and "ugly" things Please bear with me on this stinker question. A queston to those that think "the brahman is verily everything". How would you explain pervasiveness of the brahman in ugly, disgusting matter such as animal faeces ? //Ramkumar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
