Guest guest Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 I haven't read much of UG and haven't been too impressed by what I have read of him. I have found him to use very negative, provocative and even abusive and insulting language. Maybe, he uses it to draw attention! Many people in past have used shouting, abusing and negativity to gain attention when they think, their ideas are not original, fresh and innovative and may not gain attention on its own! Here is some of UG that I have come across (I especially found his comments about *God* Very *Suspicious*... meaning, perhaps, he doesn't Know!!!): -------------------------------- If I had ever me Einstein and if he had enough intelligence to understand what I am talking, I would have finished him on one minute. ~UG talking to Katie and someone else. http://www.well.com/user/jct/ ( UG' Official /unofficial site ) .... Q: But the government that is elected represents a particular class. UG: Rich people, you see -- " I want my five acres of land to be assured. " I have none, so it doesn't matter to me -- the land ceiling -- nothing affects me. Even if the communists come into power, I have nothing to lose. Not that the communists can solve the problems; nobody, no party, can solve the problems of India; GOD ALONE, IF THERE IS A GOD, and even that if He can. HE IS SINGULARLY INCAPABLE OF SOLVING (Laughs) the problems of India. It is not a pessimistic evaluation of the problems of India, but I don't see how it is possible. I don't see any hope for this country. I want this country to play a very important role in the affairs of the world. I would be most enchanted (Laughs) if India could play an important part. Even God cannot do it. THE ALL- POWERFUL, ALMIGHTY GOD, IF THERE IS ONE -- I don't know if there is any -- if he can't do it, what can I and you do? ~ UG AC: [ Look at the statements. Look at CAPITALIZED parts. What does it tell you ? ] ..... Devotional Music ----------------------- I listen to the devotional music every morning -- not that I'm interested in that or anything; because I am here and the radio is there, I tune in. Those devotional songs -- what are they? Do they know the meaning of those things they are singing? It is pornography, I am sorry to say -- really, it is pornography. I have come to the conclusion that the composers of all those stotras (verses) were sex-starved people, so they externalized it and put it on the goddess. They do not leave out even one part of the anatomy of the woman in those stotras. I am not condemning. You can give mystical explanations for all those things -- I am not interested in the mystical explanations -- that's only a cover-up, a hush-hush policy on the part of those who want to put down the questioning attitude of some of the people, who want to know why these things are there. I was just telling the people here: the worship of the bull there in the temple, and the worship of Siva -- you know that yoni and lingam business -- has come down from THE ORIGINAL MAN, TO WHOM SEX WAS THE HIGHEST KIND OF PLEASURE that he knew. Later on man experienced the bliss, the beatitude, and all that moved over; but, originally, sex was the most important thing. EVEN THE CROSS IS A PHALLIC SYMBOL. In the church they give wine and bread -- what does it actually mean? You see, they have copied it from the days of the savages -- WHEN A HERO DIED THERE, THEY ATE HIS FLESH AND DRANK HIS BLOOD hoping that they would acquire the great traits of the hero. So, that is passed on from generation to generation. ..... ~ UG Q: The Upanishadic seers, I think, were all people who blossomed individually. U.G.: Sir, if there was anything to the teachings of the Upanishads, there wouldn't have been any need for Buddha to come. Why did he? They created the opportunity, the need for a man like Buddha -- he came after the Upanishads. You see, the Vedic stuff deteriorated, then the Upanishadic seers arrived on the scene; and they messed up the whole thing, so Buddha came; and afterwards, so many people. Buddhism deteriorated in this country, so Sankara had to come; and Sankara's followers did exactly the same thing, so there arose the need for Ramanujacharya to come -- it's the same thing, you see -- and, after him, Madhavacharya. Where is the room for all these teachers? So, probably there is again a need for another teacher -- GOD ALONE KNOWS. IF HE IS THERE AROUND THE CORNER, I DON'T KNOW. Even the avatars we have in our midst seem unable to perform this miracle which is necessary to save this country and the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
