Guest guest Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Dearest Devotee, Can you say more about what it means to "persist in inviting the deluding power of maya into your life?" I could easily assume that this speaking about the importance of living with awareness, wisdom, and living in a state of detachment for instance, but am wondering more about how, at a deeper and practical level, "inviting the deluding power of maya into your life" relates to daily living in this world. Can you say more about Ramakrishna's instruction in this matter? Thank you.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 OM NAMAH SIVAYA i read your post and was actually thinking the same thing. i ramdomly opened The Nectar of Eternal Bliss to page 261. and coincidently enough i wanted to share what it said; "In this world of objects and and relationships, we want to surrender our soul. This is God's desire. He has placed us in this world of objects and relationships. What can we do? We want to surrender it all to God, even our own souls. If we do so, there is no more confusion or conflict. Then you will see that He is doing everything. Everything is God's desire."
