Guest guest Posted November 9, 2002 Report Share Posted November 9, 2002 Food for Thought "Man's essential nature is Bliss Absolute and total Freedom like the sky. Therefore he longs for it at all times but out of ignorance he feels lacking, and thus he tries to achieve freedom through fulfillment by acquiring things and beings around him. In the process he gets bound and entangled instead, like a cocoon, never be able to get out of it birth after birth, until at last he comes to realize the worthlessness of his acquisitions. Eventually after many many births, by the Grace of the Lord Almighty, he starts questioning the purpose of his human existence." radhakutir ****************************************************************** Greetings from Sri Radha Kutir, please visit our websites on Vedanta: http://personal.vsnl.com/vedanta or http://www.geocities.com/radhakutir ****************************************************************** Vedanta is not a religion or a dogma, it is the total philosophy of life, the life that is pulsating alike through humans, animals, plant kingdom and the rest of it. This life principle is variously known as the Self, God, Truth, Consciousness etc. and is of the nature of Bliss Absolute. It is none other than I the Self and is my own essential nature. Discover this Truth through Vedanta, Who am I?, and free yourself from the shackles of repeated births and deaths. ************************************************************************ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
