Guest guest Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 SOME LESSONS FROM THE MAHABHARATA: The mind is an energy field; it allows you to go up or down. Knowledge gives you the insight to know the right direction to take, but ultimately only the wisdom helps you to choose. The Mahabharata is a depiction of this psychodrama. The Kauruvas are a symbol of powerful energy choosing to go down. The Pandavas symbolize the choice to use the powerful energy to go up. We can learn from the psychological imprints left behind by Krishna, Duryodhana, and Arjuna.Krishna symbolized the energy of joy, beauty and love; flexible and firm, playful and committed. Duryodhana was stubborn and jealous. Arjuna was committed and skillful but he also knew the power of surrender. What energy field you are entertaining in your life? One has to be constantly aware of this. The battlefield at Kurukshetra is reflected in the individual mind. There is a war of these patterns and energies in us. – Swami Sukhabodhananda prof laxmi narain (prof_narain) Source and courtesy: Sri Ramana Kendram, Hyderabad This article was published in Sri Ramana Jyothi, monthly magazine of the Kendram.
