Guest guest Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Wrestle against Finitude Note how Vairagya arises in the mind. The transitory and perishable nature of all things creates a sort of disgust in all minds, and in proportion to the depth and subtlety of nature, this reaction from the world works more or less powerfully in the mind of every individual. An irresistible feeling arises in our mind, viz., that the finite can never satisfy the Infinite within us, that the changing and perishable cannot satisfy the changeless and deathless nature of ours. When you are fully aware of the magnitude of human sufferings in this miserable, relative world, you will naturally begin to discriminate between what is Real and what is unreal.
