Guest guest Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Q : Can a jnani help not only those who follow his pathbut also others who follow other paths such as yoga?A :Undoubtedly. He can help people whatever paththey choose to follow. It is something like this.Suppose there is a hill. There will be many paths to climb it.If he were to ask people to climb by the way he came ,some may like it and some may not.If people who do not like it are asked to climbby that path only, they will not be able to come up.Hence a jnani helps people following any particular pathwhatever it may be.People who are midway may not know about the meritsand demerits of other paths, but one who has climbedto the summit and sits there observing others coming upis able to see all the paths.He will therefore be able to tell people who are coming upto move a little to this side or that or to avoid a pitfall.The goal is the same for all.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~BE AS YOU ARE, The Teachings of Ramana Maharshiedited by David Godman~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
