Bishadi 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 If the Vishnu/Brahman is of all mankind, then the teachers can be of many cultures and understanding. The duty of each is not to isolate a set of literature but to find the theme Vishnu represents in each. such as 'In the beginning there was 'light' ..... so to honor existence and know that light is the life upon mass, in time. Then the trinity of combining mass, energy, time; reveals itself as the 'total' of existence. We are 'light' in the midst of things (mass) observing in time (our period of life). As we experience, we can understand life and put to mass (write) the words; we (sentience) do create. The total is what we exist within (God/Vishnu/Brahman) so in a sense all words are of God, but experienced within the period we observe them; knowledge. The over all objective in as time progresses knowledge evolves. Eventually God's children will be able to comprehend existence in total; Equally. Such is the promise of all faiths. As to know "GOD" and how each choice we make is alive in existence, and then that each choice is our ever lasting life, as energy we impose that continues, beyond our period of choice; then responsibility to existence can be a made of 'continuing life'...... Good! So the idea is to share a premise of light being the life upon mass. In which brings an 'understanding' of life within the existence of experiencing, personally. Is this the mind of truth? <!-- google_ad_section_end --> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bishadi 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 The One Power that illumines everything and every one is indivisible. It is the Ear behind the ears, Mind behind the mind, Speech behind speech, Vital Life behind life. The ears cannot hear it; it is what makes the ears hear. The eyes cannot see it; it is what makes the eyes see. You cannot speak about it; it is what makes you speak. The mind cannot imagine it; it is what makes the mind think. It is different from what all we know; yet it is not known either. Those who feel they know Him know Him not. Those who know that anything amenable to the senses is not Brahman, they know it best. When it is known as the innermost witness of all cognitions, whether sensation, perception or thought, then it is known. One who knows thus reaches immortality. Then in story Once the divines won a victory over the evil forces. The victory must have been credited to the power of the Absolute Brahman. Instead the divines thought it was theirs. Brahman appeared before them in a visible form of a spirit (yaksha) but they did not recognize the Absolute. One by one, Agni the God of fire and Vayu the God of air, came to challenge this new appearance in and tried to show off their powers. The God of Fire could not burn even the straw placed before him. The God of air could not blow even the straw placed before him. Finally Indra the God of all the divines came nearest to that spirit to find out who it is that is presenting these challenges to the divines. And before him stood a highly adorned woman in the name and form of Uma who finally reveals to Indra that the Spirit is the Absolute Brahman summary This is the truth of Brahman in relation to nature and Man. Whether it is the flash of lightning, or the wink of the eyes or the thinking of the mind, the power that is shown is the power of Brahman. For this reason should a man meditate upon Brahman all the time. The sudden Reality that strikes Man as the power behind everything, must be transformed into a permanent Realization Knowledge! It is part of what we as a species (Brahman) is all about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
