Vasanas are spoken of as latent desires and samskaras as impressions. However they are all impressions/tendencies that build the personality and cause rebirth..........ONS... --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love to all Harsha * Dear sir, There is a verse in mandukya karika to the effect: " Brahman is a totally fearless state; but all yogis are afraid of it. J.Krishnamurthy says, " It is not the various objects that cause fear, but the very flight away from, ' What is.' As long as we have a single motive in life, there will be fear. It is the constant interpreting process, not being aware choicelessly of that which is, that causes fear. Fear is the symptom of the disease of individuality. We are dealing with the various objective manifestations of fear, but are not aware of the actual feeling without the interference of the past. Actually, when something overwhelming takes place, there will be immedate action; as when one sees a deadly cobra. would one conceptualize then? It is the perception of the danger of thought in any form psychologically that will release the brain from this. Another paradox is that we think we can live individually when freed of fear, little realizing that the very individuality is fear. We want experiences to know this. But no experience can teach this except the swift understanding that thought is our enemy. with warm regards, Sankarraman Blab-away for as little as 1¢/min.
