Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 I thought I have seen a post somewhere online about God and Self, by OSHO. Amma Saranam! Regards Ramesh Bhaskar <rajiventerprises Tuesday, 29 July, 2008 5:55:33 PM GODS ? ARE WE ONE ? Dear Friends, We cannot be Gods or we cannot say that God is within us. We can only say that we are in God but He is not in us. How can God be in these terrosists, rapists and criminals of societies ? No He possibly cannot be. It is like a Earthern Pot filled with space. The space outside cannot be fillled in the Pot. But only when the Pot breaks can we say that the space is One, and not before. Till the time the sapta koshas with which the human soul is enshrined with is existing the soul cannot be said as to become God. It can be a part of God but not the whole. Who am I ? I cannot be my Head only or the hands only or the feet only ? The complete body only can be called by my name. And this body and name is also subject to change in different births. But certain souls like Telanga Swami who have become One with Him within this body can be called as a Real Part of God. Till the soul sparkles with His Divine Light we ordinary mortals cannot say that God is within us. So we can say that God is everywhere, but God is not necessarily within us till we realise actually that all is God. And its not easy to realise so. Bhaskar. N.B. I have purposely not connected this post to any other post as do not wish to enter any controversy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 Dear friends, To those who do not believe in God, Karma or Lord Krishna, we cannot put forth any arguments, because it would be hitting ones head against a stone wall. To those who do believe, must not get swayed by opinions contrary to what have been taught to us, and instead of wasting time in fruitless discussions which are not going to help anyone but only create heat, must re-read the sacred books and then ruminate on what has been read. Bhagavad Gita Chapter 9 Shloka 4 " The whole of this universe is permeated by Me as Unmanifest Divinity , and all beings rest in the idea within Me. Therefor really speaking, I am not present in them. " Talking is different and practising is different. We say that God is everywhere. but would one see him in the neighbours dog ? Would one see him in the person who owes him money but is not paying him ? Would one see him in the vomit spat by a pregnant lady ? Or in a guests small baby who has just shit in the Drawing room ? We are not Aghoris to have acquired that sama Bhava, so talking that God is everywhere is wasteful indulgence of time and unnecessary trying to make believe that one is doing satsanga. This is not satsanga. A stone pillar would be a stone pillar would be a stone pillar would be a stone pillar , unless it is facing a person like Bhakta Prahlad. I bow out from this thread. regards, Bhaskar. , "Bhaskar" <rajiventerprises wrote:>> > Dear Friends,> > We cannot be Gods or we cannot say that God is within us.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Dear Bhaskar ji, May be that is the beauty of Osha, and Osho in us. He talked for us - the true us within, which seeks the ultimate. That is why he is a buddha. :)Love and regards,Sreenadh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
