The Lord and I

[Guest guest]

Vinaire: " The individual creates the mind for its play. "

 

M: " No, the Lord does. "

 

Vinaire: " What is the Lord but I...? "

 

Please note the following quote from Swami Vivekananda,

 

" All the gods are here, the prototypes of man. The gods did not

create man after their type, but man created gods. We have been

projecting our little doubles and we are the originals of these gods,

we are the real, the only gods to be worshipped. This is the view of

Vedanta and this its practicality. When we have become free, we need

not go mad and throw up society and rush off to die in the forest or

the cave; we shall remain where we were, only we shall understand the

whole thing. We do not see what this world is yet, it is only through

freedom that we see what it is. "
