Guest guest Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 Dear Guru Bhaies, When I asked the question " Why is Brahman deluded by Maya " to my Guruji, His Holiness Swami Chidananda of the Chicago Vedanta ashram, he answered " When there is darkness in a room, our first thought should be how to bring light rather than analyzing why there is darkness. When u bring light to the dark room, u will not have the question of why there is darkness, as it's already gone because of the light. " . In the same way, this question is answered by realizing the self rather than by intellectual arguments. In the book " Sri Ramakrishna - the great master " , Thakur was trying to explain some devotees how kundalini is aroused and how he feels when it is ascending. He was able to explain his experience till he reached the chakra at the throat. He couldn't explain how it fees when this energy crossed the chakra at the throat and he mentiones " Even though I want to tell u how it feels after this, Mother is closing my mouth. " In essence, as some one in the group has already mentioned, this question is best answered when u realize the self.
