Guest guest Posted July 17, 2001 Report Share Posted July 17, 2001 Reading through Swami Ashokananda's " How to cultivate love for God " I came across a very lateral presentation of the traditional pathways... Jnana Marg " Jnana Yoga - the path of knowledge, the philosophical path. There, also, analysis is called for, not exclusively of the mind but of all the reality that is presented to oneself. By such analysis, all erroneous ideas about reality are given up, and there remains only the true idea. And when this true idea has been most clearly defined, it becomes an experience. You, see, when thinking, or thought, becomes very intense, it becomes tinged with emotion, and very soon it bring us to an actual experience of reality; it does not remain merely conceptual. That is the path of knowledge, the philosophical path. " Commentary: Look at the wordings " When the thought becomes very intense - it becomes an experience.... " Such usage can only come from one who is Self realised. None else can speak in such a manner.. The lesser exponent will fall back on standard rhetoric.....
