  1. "It is creation of maya or illusion. The

    material world in mithya in the same way.

    Dreams are real as long as we are

    dreaming but their unreality becomes clear

    when one wakes up. Similarly the world is

    real in the conditioned state. It is empirical reality.

    But when one wakes up by the light of Brahmajnana the world's relativity is realized. This does not mean that the world would cease to exist. Dreams are called pratibhasikasatta or illusory existence, material would is vyavaharika satta or empirical existence and Brahman is called Paramarthika satta or Absolute reality.

    Sankhya does not recognize God as the

    creator of the Universe. Prakriti is the

    material cause and Purusa is the efficient

    cause of the universe. Sankhya makes no

    explicit mention of God and therefore

    some scholars count them atheists. Others

    argue that they are not atheists because

    they do not deny the existence of God.

    The later Sankhyites say that God is not

    mentioned in the Sutras because God is

    not needed as an ontological reality to

    explain the world and the goal of human

    life.

  2. DAa egale is a fascinating animal. it flys. HUNTS for fish (salmon good). it builds it's nest in high pressure areas in the air above where few predators can attack it. Itz livz in caves.

     

    I beleive they're in Alaska. been There once in cruise vacations with f&f's. Alaska is not a cold area. At least the Juneau in summer time. however, it is not beautiful. there is not much facemarks of human civilization there. not good for spiritual development.

     

    more info on egale appreciatez. also how to get inside earth from Alaska interesing &&& appreciatedd.


  3. There is a major war ahead. Boeing just slashed 20k-30k jobs in a millisecond. USA is thinking of stacking up on military spending. NOt for nothing...;D

     

    Shvu

    Far from that. There are many scientists in ISKCON itself, but the difference is these

    people search for the truth and don't want to restrict themselves to doctrines. On the

    other hand, many mainstream scientists are highly dogmatic and have agendas. A case in

    point is the recent opposition to Astrology courses in the Universities, by Indian

    scientists.end shvu

    I like the first point. lot of goods cholars came out of the iskcon fallout (prabhu's death).

     

    All scientists have an agenda. Just like all devotees have an agenda. becauset hey both have conviction.

     

    pleaes explain on that astrology subject more. 10% of what? how do you predict 10% of the future.


  4. originally posted by kc dasaI suppose you have read the Mahabharat, as I have. Basically, every Pandava was capable of invocing different types of special weapon with their bow and arrow.

    This is nothing special. Anyone who knows how to speak Sanskrit can invoke different types of special weapon with their bow & arrow.

     

    According to modern history, bow & arrow was invented by Native Americans...

    Interesting.


  5. Does OSAMA Bin Laden even exist?

    The name itself sounds like a spell-bounding mantra.

     

    For all we know this could be another moon-hoax via the camera. The space program was justifiable for military build-up. Now OSAME is another excuse for the latter. Will America ever learn?

     

    Another thought.

    America has had more than enough time to destroy Sadam and OSAMa. The last 20 years for that matter. Are you telling me United States was not able to destroy a wandering terrorist in the last 20 years.

     

    Does not make sense to me. Conspiracy theory.


  6. Bush as had more than enuff time to safeguard the Pentagon from Clint's adminstration. There is no excuse for such an Embarrasing attack such as what happened on Tuesday the 11th.

     

    Anyway, the more subtle happenings. Bush 1 had problems in Middle East. 8 years of Clinton with no solutions. Bush 2 now sends an amary into Afghanistan. I have no heard anything from the VicePrez yet. I have no heard India voice yet. Or CHINA's. This all confusion points to a large conspiracy!...
