Guest guest Posted September 9, 2001 Report Share Posted September 9, 2001 rajat, I liked this. There is a point in growing where instead of trying to find all the answers, you try to ask better questions. you give them time to rise in your mind. you already might be a teacher, but you start to listen more. you find people coming to you who want answers and you help them ask better questions. or you simply tell them to go somewhere and be quiet. instead of anxiousness about learning, it turns into a natural rhythm of observing and watching and 'soaking in' through the silence and through contemplation or reflection. i find when i can enter into that state that the knowledge that comes is vibrant and alive and not mere facts and figures to file away. it is the knowledge that is experiential and has impact in my life. also, this way the humble person who gains knowledge is not trying to use it for his own ends, but his sense of wonder is constantly aroused and everything becomes an adventure. these are my thoughts after reading your post. bill ******************* , younghornycpl wrote: > RESPECTED MEMBERS, > PRANAAM, > for the last some days i ad been thinking about wat could be the > different stages of ones life( of soul) towards spirituality & > came to these four conclusions... > 1) learner(well everybody is a learner till 3rd stage ,but cud'nt > find another word)/listner/reader: those who are not verrry much > completely inclined but are not the ones who get bored when someone > talks on the topic, they led their ears with full > interest,read at times etc. .. > 2)THINKER: those who start thinking deeply ,trying to get answers to > unknown & so on > 3)SPEAKER (WAQTA in hindi): those who have read ,thought & now > discuss & speak about the thoughts ,analysis etc. > 4) WATCHER (DRASHTA): Those who have passed all th above ,are > complete knower yet devoid of all knowledge ,they > are one with BRAHMA as such they justt watch the others ,how they > walk towards it & fall & rise & so on & keep laughing > knowing its all THE MAYA & PRARABDH (HMMMM what is bound that way) & > in course they wud soon be one with > him. > > now today ,i just felt like reading KAULARNAVA TANTRA & as soon as i > opened the first page came thru thses verses .... > > 1)AAGAMOT THAM VIVEKOT THAM DWIDHA GYANAM PRACHAKSHATEY , SHABD > BRAHMAGAMYAM > PARAM BRAHM VIVEK JAM. > > Knowledge is of 2 types ,one derived from scriptures other born out f > mental reasoning.
