Guest guest Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Namaste, How can one truth be always perfect underneath, although it seems so imperfectly and so conflictingly expressed -- in various different personal beliefs and cultural picturings through which we describe a common world? A piece of verse on this question is appended below. Ananda --------------------------- PerfectionThis seemingly conflicted world --with all of its competing ills --yet perfectly expresses truthbeyond all taint of compromise.Through partial bodies in the world,our senses and our minds constructtheir many different picturingsbuilt up from personal belief.Our differences of bodied sense,interpreted by different thoughtsand feelings in our changing minds,produce these varied picturings.Are they then different picturingsof one same world where we all live?They seem to show such different worlds.Can they be views of one same thing?How can our different pictures showone truth or one realityconceived with such varietyat different times, in different minds?

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Anandaji - PraNAms Interesting thoughts. Here is the beauty. Pure, all pervading illumining light of consciousness - the so-called perfection cannot be seen or noticed to be perfect without the presence of the imperfect minds to reflect the lights. The same goes for the space. Without the light of consciousness we can never knows perfection from imperfection. We need the minds to see the light of reflection. we need objects for the all pervading light to manifest in forms and we need the all pervading light of consciousness to see the objects that is the BMIs. We cannot see the mind without the light of illumination. At the same time, we cannot recognize the all pervading perfection without the imperfect minds. For saakshii, saakshyam is required to fulfill the role of saakshii. That is the beauty of perfection in the imperfection. That is the wonder of all wonders. Hari Om!
