Guest guest Posted January 12, 2002 Report Share Posted January 12, 2002 sorry i thought this was the key of the letter and if this got messed up in the post, the purpose wouldnt be served so trying to resend the post .... my friend pls try to understand that states are universal and paths leading to that are multitude. love is a state, nirvana is a state all these can be reached by various ways.You have to recognise 3 things 1) CONTEXT 2) STATE 3) ACTION , Now we will formulate some rules, 1) A CONTEXT belongs to a STATE. 2) A STATE has 'N' contexts. 3) A STATE can be UNDERSTOOD/EXPRESSED by CONTEXT. 4) EVERY CONTEXT has an ACTION element. 4) An ACTION can belong to more than One state. you cant substitute each with other, both are complementary. .. we will take a case for ex person A killing a person B, this is an action ,so we will apply 3 contexts and 2 states this action ACTION a person KILLING b person CONTEXTS 1)Rama killed ravana2)bombay police killed some henchman in fire exchange 3) A Brother killed his other brothers for attaining kingship ( iam unable to think any particular example) STATES 1) welfare of the people 2) greed for power let us apply all the 3 STATE----------------CONTEXTS------------------------ACTION 1)welfare----------> 1a) Rama Killed Ravana----> KILLING ---------> 1b)police killed henchmen --->KILLING 2)greed for power--> 2a)a brother killed other brothers-->KILLING SEE ACTION IS SAME IN VARIOUS CONTEXTS AND STATES SO TRY GET EVERY THING IN THIS FRAME AND START COMPARING.... intention = state. action = stateless. rest of the detail = context. you may argue that action should be a state , its more appropriate to say that action is stateless because it cant be just tied to one state. Now you can see the difference, so dont apply one to each other,SOUL IS A STATE WHICH HAS DIFFERENT NAMES CALLED NIRVANA/BUDDAHOOD/BRHAMTVA so when ever you want to analyse some thing identify this 3 imp elements thing would be clear for you So understand the intention behind the acion in a context you will have and basically your intention/motive should be genuine...if u are not able to decide that on ur own with some effort take the help of some trusted person, if you dont have a sadguru,turn to scriputres read some examples. i know that we have in past done a bad job of misinterpreting scripures, it dosent mean that scriptures are bad only the people that misinterpreted are bad. so u and i have to make an effort other wise our posterity would suffer, so feel responsible for ur children. who wants to think all these. ........
