Namaste Benji,et al,

 

As you realise this is impossible, moksha eliminated death and the

jiva.

 

However until that stage we are all aspiring advaitins. For example

people are devoted to images, ishtadevatas and even sankara.

So it is real whilst one is in it, even the after life which is part

of the dream world has relative validity. However even extending this

validity there is no room for Jivanmukta for the person no longer

exists or the delusion has dropped so to speak.

So you will see many people who strongly claim to be Advaitins still

worshipping and using different means of concentration. For in the

end result the only Advaitin is the Jivanmukta.......ONS...Tony.

I believe that there is something very profound to this

Advatin/Nonduality stuff. I really do ... I am not playing mind

games.

 

However, I still can't help asking myself a rather silly question,

"Are there any flowers after Moksha?"

 

I think Dennis might say, "Of course, that was never the issue."

Harsha too, probably, being a poet and all. But I'm not so sure

about the more 'purist' Advaitins, such as yourself perhaps. How far

does this apparent antipathy to form go?

 

But if there are 'flowers', or the illusion of flowers, even after

Moksha, then there is a world with sky, trees, people, etc.

 

Or maybe I'm missing some essential point.

 

So maybe that could be a month's topic: Are there flowers after

Moksha? Or maybe that is too silly...

 

Anyhow, I've got to go, since there is a big bad vyavaharic hurricane

coming right at me!

 

Hari Om!
