Guest guest Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 OM NAMAH SIVAYA like you i read this group to learn more about honoring Siva from all learned souls here. it is said that Religion can be compared to swimming in the ocean while Spirituality is like diving. Siva is about the diving deep. i think that Siva, being the unattached Yogi he is, would destroy any and/or all external symbols, including mountains, if that is what it took to get us to dive deep. as a generalization Religion in the world today is stuck on the surface, which is causing many conflicts. a quote that made me think of this ongoing discussion from Swami Vivekananda, "He who sees Shiva in the poor, in the weak, and in the diseased, really worships Siva." may we see Siva not in the temples, but in the downtrodden that we pass on our way to the temple. we know the ocean's treasures are always on the floor while garbage tends to float on its surface. may the world strive to dive.
