Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 hello friend I hope you have not read the whole message. You have to completely read the message and try to understand it. Latter on we can have conclusions. mantra, puja etc are of one level. higher level is service to Lord in human form. Jnana Yajna is higher than Dravya Yajna. Jnana Yajna means learn and participate in the propagation of divine knowledge under the guidance of Satguru only. For this you have to identify the Lord in human form and then only you can serve Him. A sanyasi who has renunciated for the sake of Lord to propagate His divine knowledge is the highest. Like Swami vivekananda, Adi Sankara etc.. If you don't want to follow this path, atleast continue in some worship. Don't leave the worship of Lord all together. If you don't want to go to higher classes, does not matter but don't come out of school and sit idle. This is the satsang. so please don't be funny and conclude illogically. at the lotus of shri datta swami surya www.universal-spirituality.org lalu_yadav_bhai <no_reply> wrote: So you are saying no need to do mantra, puja etc. So I can kill, steal lie, then become "saint" at feet of my guru Fatwa Swami, and goto heaven, while my neighbour who prays, gives to poor, is a kind person is going to hell.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 Are we remembering the reason for these different types of worship that have been practiced for so much since before this moment? I have seen that so much everyone is seeming to take this rituals as literally as they find posible. Why is it that we are so focused on completing the "spiritual" act at hand to the very letter of its instructions that is written down? When is it that the focus on God is remembered to be had? During ritual mind was focused on speaking perfectly and moving perfectly, on mind and body. After ritual one says: " I am finished with doing this for now. I can let my mind be free of something other than the rituals now." This is almost akin to a child shouting: "Pops, hey pops!" when they'ed want something from their father and running off as soon as they see their friends or the icecream truck. God will say to His children: "This life you are to keep nothing with you and wander around the country. But I will have your brother here be very rich." So we have one man who becomes a wondering sanyasi with maybe four or five basic possessions, meditating much, traveling often and begging for his dinner. The other man is so rich he has absolutely no clue what to do with all his money and most of our mouths would be gaping if he said how much he spends in a day. Neither of the sons fall out of favor with the Father. Why is this? "Remember me always. For where ever you go there I am." Be always in the remembrance of the Lord. Sacrifice yourself. Do your best to lead a good and prosperous life and be fair to others as best that can be had, but give everything to God. We offer experiences, thoughts, objects whole heartedly to our Father and remember Him in every act. "Whenever you need me, you know where to find me. I have never left you. I'm right here by your side." This is true. I do not think it will make a saint out of everyone over night, but too often we forget God and without that beacon of light get a bit lost. As for the world: something we forget to do is take things in moderation. Acting and taking things in moderation is also something that is imporant to remember to do. The Lord granted us gifts of these bodies so take care of them. Try not to bounce from on extreme to the other. But we are all given different tasks to complete, so I do not say that my words should make anything concrete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
