axiomatic truth -- simply hear and act accordingly

[Guest guest]

There are certain axiomatic truths which is called Vedic injunction. The

axiomatic truth, as I have given you several times example that cow dung is

pure... Now, your reason is, "Oh, you say the Vedic injunction that if you

touch stool of any animal you have to take your bath, purify yourself. And

the Vedic injunction says cow dung is pure. Oh, this is contradictory." No.

Not contradictory. This is injunction. People are actually accepting this,

no argument, and they are benefited by it. So axiomatic truth. How it is

truth? You may not have sufficient intelligence, but if you go deep into the

matter you will find it is all truth: "Yes, it is all right." That is called

Vedic injunction. So you cannot argue. You have to accept as it is. You

cannot interpret. What education we have got, what intelligence, that we can

interpret on Vedic injunction? No. It should be accepted as it is. That is

called Vedic injunction. This is called sruti. You have to simply hear and

act accordingly.
