Guest guest Posted August 16, 1999 Report Share Posted August 16, 1999 Hello Everyone ! Swami Yogeshananda Hari Om! RE: Message: 7 Mon, 16 Aug 1999 01:01:01 EDT Premadevi (no subject) On the question of his own Enlightenment the Master always remained reticent, even though the disciples tried every means to get him to talk. All the information they had on this subject was what the Master once said to his youngest son who wanted to know what his father felt when he became Enlightened. The answer was: " A fool. " When the boy asked why, the Master had replied, " Well, son, it was like going to great pains to break into a house by climbing a ladder and smashing a window -- and realizing later that the door of the house was open. " Anthony de Mello, SJ __________ Dear Jody, There is only ONE MASTER on the Ramakrishna Digest....and that is Sri Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsadeva ! Father Anthony's 'master' is unknown to us. Let him remain so. Let us not confuse the members of our list, especially those who are more familiar with another tongue, by submitting stories about 'masters with sons'. I am begging you to stop, om shanthi om, tom ____ 123India - India's Premier Search Engine Get your Free Email Account at http://www.123india.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
