Guest guest Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 Someone enquired of Bhagavan : " People talk on Vaikunta,Kailasa,Indraloka,Chandraloka,etc. Do they really exist ?"Bhagavan replied:"Certainly. You can rest assured that they all exist.There also a Swami like me will be found seated,and disciples like this also be seated around.They will ask something and he will say something in reply.Everything will be more or less like this.What of that ? If one sees Chandraloka, he will ask forIndraloka,and after Indraloka,Vaikunta and after Vaikunta,Kailasa,and then this and that,and the mind goes onwandering. Where is shanti ? If shanti is required,the one correct method of seccuring it is by self-enquiryand through self-enquiry self-realization is possible.If one realizes the Self, one can see all these worldswithin one's self. The source of everything is one's own self,and if one realizes the Self,one will not find anythingdifferent from the Self. Then this doubt will not arise.There may or may not be a Vaikunta or a Kailasabut it is a fact that you are here, isn't it ?How are you here ? Where are you ?After you know about these things,you can think of allthese worlds.- Letters from Sri Ramanasramam - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
