Guest guest Posted November 19, 2002 Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 3. When we ask something about spirituality that we dont understand from ppl who know. Why do these ppl always say that "You shall know when u come to our age" or "why do they get angry and get annoyed on cross querying." How can we understand anything if our basic fundamentals are not clear. WHy dont they answer the fundamental basic questions raised by ppl who want to understand? That is because they have never dared to ask the questions themselves. Many of us so called scientists or engineers too (ME INCLUDED) just assume asset of rules and churn information. People like Einstein who can question the basic rules are very few. This tendency is exaggerated several times over in religion and spirituality. While logic in science is linear, "scientific explanations" given to explain supernatural phenomena are parabolic or sometimes even totally random. Ever wondered why astrology is a science, but science is not astrology?? That said no one is obliged to answer anyone's questions and faith works a great deal in religion, and vivekanada always said – do not disturb the faith of another person, as his faith will take him to the other sure. But there is difference between faith in God and superstitions and we all have to work on our own basic premises. My teacher (of physics) who is a very wise man (boy, will he be happy if he reads this!) once said if you have it in you the capacity to ask a question, you are also supplied with the ability to answer it yourself if you try enough. "4. I would also like to know a bit about the academic backgrounds of the ppl participating in this group, however, this is not very important. I felt really happy and surprised when i saw ppl with similar fields and interests as mine, sharing information about spiritualism, Gods and Tantra Mantra" Spiritual accomplishment and being intellectually / academically strong are unrelated independent sets. If we are sitting in front of a PC punching keys, we must be having some sort of an education. "Please dont take this query otherwise." Sure, manuj. I understand your point, its fine, you may ask. And people may wish to share theirs like you shared yours. "5. I felt very scared and uneasy when i read about Mr. Raghu's Sister. That her in laws have done some totka on her and she has suffered from paralysis due to that." Unfortunately, there are ugly sides to everything and raghu's suffering may bean expression to this ugly side of tantra as ashish pointed out. You can also make the atom bomb by using E= mc^2. "6. I read about powers like 'Walking on water' and 'Flying in air' and 'Seeing the past and Future like vision'. Can these powers REALLY be achieved by kundalini activation? Has anyone ever seen any such powers in a human being in person with his / her own eyes." I believe this is possible though I have never been fortunate enough to witness such a demonstration. Arun bhaiyya who answered queries when guruji was alive once told me how he had seen an ugly woman transformed into a beautiful one in matter of mintues by guruji. If anyone other than arun bhaiyya would have said this I would have totally ignored this, but I believe arun bhaiya. A sadhak I met once also told me how he is able to communicate with guruji as and when he wishes to and its like talking on the phone. I believe this man too and have my reasons for it. "Can these powers not be used to control the sufferings of the life forms like in Kashmir, Gujrat, Andhra, Iraq, Russia, Afganistan etc. if not eliminate them OR to find the solutions of unknowns like Scientific / Mathematical / Space Research problems / Genetics problems etc." Manuj, you cannot add or subtract suffering to this world. The energies in this world are in perfect balance. If you try to remove it in one form it will find another expression. The only person you help in helping others is yourself. And getting the opportunity to do this is like a double promotion in school. That said we should do what we can. But ever wondered why the already illuminated souls never do anything about all this? Suffering like happiness is the natural consequence of being born. You can call it karma but I call it just an endless learning process. You are being taught something in ahppiness and being taught something in pain. And each soul will have to walk on the path destined for it until the lessons are driven in – you or me or whoever. "7. Can we somehow invite some independant agency like 'DISCOVERY CHANNEL' or 'NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC' or 'BBC' or someone like them to help us in the re-search and popularize this vidya scientifically. Indian Science Museum have kept some problems to be solved using these powers in order to remove 'andh-vishwas' from the people. We can really do a great service to our world by making them aware of spirituality in this better, easier and more scientific way." you sure do have the innocence of a child. Before convincing others you have to be convinced yourself and the only way to do so is prove it works. Do not think, sit and do some sadhana and see for yourself.
