Guest guest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 HARI AUM Is it really difficult to recognize right and wrong? Cannot we generally agree upon that a particular action/thought is right or wrong? YES WE CAN and we DO most of the times too. Latest reports says that this discriminative ability is encrypted in our brain. Inspite of that the atrocities continue. Answering Arjuna, Bhagavan had said: ‘kamaeshakrodhaesha..(verse 37 chapter 3). Once we know that the ‘vasanas’ are the culprit, we can work out how to stop new ones and deplete the existing ones. In this verse (23 chapter 13) he has shown a very simple, easy and practical way to move towards ending the ‘duality’. “upadrushtanumantha cha bhartha bhoktha maheswaraha paramatmeti chapyuktho deheasmin purushaha paraha” So if we want ‘him’ within us exactly as ‘he’ is (maheswara), then what we do shall be exactly in consonance with ‘him’. That is, it shall be 100% ‘dharmic’. It is then we attain what we call ‘realisation’. We ‘realise’ that ‘i’ and ‘he’ is one ..THAT THWAUM ASI. AHAM BRHAHMASMI. As the degree of ‘dharma’ decreases ‘his’ presence within us shifts from that of ‘maheswaraha’ to that of ‘bharta’, ‘bhoktha’ and ‘anumantha’ and lastly when our actions are totally ‘adharmic’ ‘he’ sits silently as a ‘witness’(upadrushta). Next time we do something just check –we want 'him' within us as: –A WITNESS ? (upadrushta)(kill,plunder,loot,rape..100%adharma) –PERMITTER ? (anumanta)(some what legal, ethical and moral) -FULLFILLER ? (bharta)(legal,but not fully ethical and moral) –ENJOYER ? (bhoktha)(completely legal,ethical and moral) -GOD OF GODS ? (maheswaraha)(exactly as our Bhagavan acted, thought and lived) ….and then go ahead and do accordingly. Stop the long lists of excuses we invent conveniently, the ‘ifs’ and ‘buts’ … and all those we put together to rationalise and compromise on the ‘dharma’. The Choice is ours.
