Guest guest Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 What is the path to self-realization? Knowing something mentally is different from knowing something in the heart. MYSTIC -------------- Original message from Divakara Tanjore <div_tan >: -------------- From my experience self-realization makes us see ourself as sparks or light of the supreme. This happensthrough acquiring knowledge, bhakti, .., andcompassion. All knowlwdge and energy etc.. will leadto compassion. That is the reason all great people inthis world are very compassionate people, they havethe unbelievable power like god. For example, MahatmaGandhi, a very simple and ordinary person from hislooks, just wearing a dhoti, but look at what heachieved, can you believe he brought independence withnon-voilence. how could he convince the people ofnon-voilence principle. I just cannot understand, thatis the power of love and compassion, nothing can stop.Mahatma's self realization led him to believe he canachive the impossible.he had no ego, he gradully gave up ego, he is full oflove.Om namah shivaya,Divakar.
