Guest guest Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 Thus Spake The Lord When Maya prompts us into the saatwik mood of that Will, we become progressive seekers of spiritual wisdom that reveals the Unity. When we are overwhelmed by the raajsik quality of that Will, we are deluded into the pursuit of worldly victories and ephemeral wealth and renown. The taamsik nature of that Will seeks the quickest and easiest ways of happy living. There are the reflections in our minds of the basic modes of the Will that the Supreme Being assumes when It is moved by the primal urge to express Itself. The facets of the Will are called Jnana Shakti (Power of wisdom), Iccha Shakti (Power of the Will) and Kriya Shakti (Power of Action). The three modes affect beings and things in various proportions and permutations, and so we have all the variety and diversity of the objective world. Atman, whether individualized or universalized, is One only. The individual soul and the Supreme Soul are One and Indivisible. Reference: Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. XIV, P. 157-162.
