Who is hurting whom ? Ask Those Who Know!

[Guest guest]

Sreenivasaji,in a recent post.apologized at the end of his post

saying 'i hope i am not hurting anybody's fellings

 

WHO IS THIS 'I THAT IS GETTING HURT BY SREENIVASAJI REMARKS ?

 

if one is real 'vedanti' , no one can hurt you - for what is

this 'I' -

it is the 'self ' which is an Akarta - actionless ! The 'i' in you

in

pure awareness- It is not a storehouse of Memory of Guilt and hurt !,

 

Sreenivasaji , Sri Aurobindo's 'Savitri' is a beautiful poem - i

am

glad chose to share a few lines from it! Thanks! AUROBINDO WAS A

GREAT PHILOSOPHER TOO! His 'integral yoga' is popular and the

Auroville Ashram in Pondicherry attracts thousands of visitors

everyday ... Next to Goa, it is the most popular retreat for many

westerners!

 

Sreenivasaji , if you don't mind , may i please share a poem by a

Sufi

poet Yunus Emre with you ? They say an apple a day keeps the Doctor

away -may i say a poem a day keeps all 'Hurt' away?Smile!

 

Yunus Emre

Timeline (1238 - 1320)

 

Ask those who know,

what's this soul within the flesh?

Reality's own power.

What blood fills these veins?

 

Thought is an errand boy,

fear a mine of worries.

These sighs are love's clothing.

Who is the Khan on the throne?

 

Give thanks for His unity.

He created when nothing existed.

And since we are actually nothing,

what are all of Solomon's riches?

 

Ask Yunus and Taptuk

what the world means to them..

The world won't last.

What are You? What am I?
