Ascetic or lunatic ?

Hello Baba,

 

it all depends upon our perpective of seeing things. If that swami was

so realized and newly ended up in such a bliss state of ananda, he

must have had a different way of seeing things. I dont reject the

possibility of everything he said being correct and true.

 

His words are symbolic though and hide meanings which we could

analyze. For example when he says that he did nothing, he might have

done a lot. Either he takes his enlightment as a gift of god or he did

not identify himself with the actions he did, thus there was no ego

nor action of his side involved.

 

It is widely known that people who raise their kundalini or are on the

spiritual journey are a bit weird. LOL.

 

Practically, people do benefit more from practicing the spiritual

techniques. They are free to practice and claim that god is practicing

through them... as long as they practice ). So, we can use many ways

to express the same things. The concepts behind them are more

important in this case.

 

Enlightment is not something that can be proved to anyone by the depth

of specific knowledge. Only other enlighted people can recognize other

as such. But we can use our instict and the little god hidden within

us, to judge a teacher for example, before trusting him or accepting

as one. So generally, small amounts of objective and practically

useful knowledge, are much more apreciated than "wooden-language" and

repetition of scriptures without understanding the true meanings.

 

Hari Om!
