Fw: Tri Basic View Of Life - Questions unanswered

Except my extempore ramblings, I have not seen any reply from our beloved prabhuji-s to the below mail ...I think Sri Srinivasa Murthy prabhuji's questions need a special consideration & to be answered...He wanted to know whether it is possible to get our svarUpa jnAna or realization of Atma jnAna by merely doing the *manana* on the avasthA traya prakriya ( he calls it tri basic view of life) outside the frame of shAstra-s..In short, how can an outsider, who does not have any belief in shAstra & traditions but wanted to know the real nature of his self would get the knowledge of the same...

 

Being a follower of vaidika dharma, I donot want to see this knowledge outside the scope of our shAstra-s...But at the same time I am curious to know whether this Atma jnAna is religion restricted!!?? how can an alien to our shAstra-s would get this svarUpa jnAna ...if at all he wanted to know this truth & approach us for the guidance, is it appropriate on our part to say first, you have to take shelter under Hindu dharma & follow the injuctions of our shAstra-s?? or is it possible to teach him the methodology of avasthAtraya prakriya (examination of three states) with impartial logic but without the aid of shAstra-s and AchAryOpadeSa??

 

I think this is what Sri Srinivasa Murthy prabhuji is trying to find out...Sri Murthy prabhuji kindly correct me if your intention is something else.

 

Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!

Tri Basic View Of Life

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From : H.N.Sreenivasa murthy

Pranams to all members.

 

Dear learned members,

A vedantic friend of mine asked me the following questions:

 

[a-1] : The states of waking, dream and deepsleep, are these states that are events that occur in time?

 

[a-2] Do these events occur in space ?

 

[a-3] Do these events occur in the same time/space series?

 

[a-4] I appropriate these events to myself. Then who is that 'I' that is common to all these states ?

 

[a-5] Is it possible to get answers to these questions

from LIFE only without referring to any scriptures ?

 

I request the members to throw light on these questions.

With warm and respectful regards,

Sreenivasa Murthy.
