Dear all :

 

i am a little puzzled by the term 'human consciousness'? ! Do you

for a moment think 'animals ' or for that matter even the

green 'grass' have no cosnciousness or 'feelings' ? ...

 

Once , Sri Ramakrishna Pramahamsa was meditating in the Panchavati

garden when he heard some cows grazing on the green grass. Sri

Ramakrishna Paramahamsa was disturbed by the sound of the cows

grazing nearby and he came out of his meditation session - Sri

Ramakrishna then summoned the Dakshineshwar Temple servants

to 'shoo' away the cows and asked them to feed the cows ! Then

Thakore removed his shirt and the temple servants saw 'red red

marks' on Thakore's back - the servants were taken aback -and the

reason for all those 'red marks ' on Takore's back was he felt

the 'pain' the Grass was suffering when so many cows trampled on the

Grass , crushing them under their feet! After i read this story, i

never like to walk on the 'Grass' anymore nor do i like to pluck a

flower from a plant ! Believe me , plants or trees do

have 'cosciousness ' of sorts ! ( We honor Maa Prakriti in any

form) ! so, from this i learned even grass has 'consciousness' ! (

is it *inhuman* to think so? )

Namaste DhyanaSaraswatiji,

Good to hear from you in

your own words about the continuum

of consciousness. Anything that exists is Consciousness. People seem to

be shy about engaging in a discussion about the Vedas and Darwinism which

is odd as by repute most of the expats are of the engineering class with

background in science. Do you see any conflict there yourself?

Best Wishes,

Michael.

PS. Tell Swami Ramdev I will accept a seer of Brinjal Oil in liue of fee

for the propagation of my thoughts.
