Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 What will become of the world then? What good shall we do to the world? Such questions do not arise " What becomes of my gingerbread if I become old? " says the baby! " What becomes of my marbles if I grow? So I will not grow, " says the boy! " What will become of my dolls if I grow old? " says the little child! It is the same question in connection with this world, it has no existence in the past, present, or future. If we have known the Âtman as It is, if we have known that there is nothing else but this Atman, that everything else is but a dream, with no existence in reality, then this world with its poverties, its miseries, its wickedness, and its goodness will cease to disturb us. If they do not exist, for whom and for what shall we take trouble? This is what the Jnana-Yogis teach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
