Guest guest Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 SAI RAM Dear Brothers and Sisters, SWAMY ON MOKSHA From Summer Showers 1974 P63 " The word Moksha does not represent something which is exhaustible and which you can purchse from a shop. Moksha is regarded as a limitless entity. So long as there is attachment in you, the world will appear permanent. On the lotus of your heart, this attachment always moves like mercury. This kind of mercurial lust which is continually moving from place to place should be removed and this process of Moha-kshaya is Moksha. Once this attachment goes, what remains is simply Ananda. To convert our lives to some extent in this manner is the path of Brahman. " From Sanathana Sarathi, June 2000 " Liberation(Moksha) can not be attained by the study of texts. It can not be attained by listening to the teachings of others. Moha Kshaya is Moksha(annihiliation of desire is liberation). " From Sutra Vahini P23 " An aspirant eager to attain the Mansion of Moksha , the abode of freedom, needs renunciation and Wisdom, renunciation of wordly desires and wisdom to become aware of the Atma. " ...... " The sense of 'mine; is the bond of deluding attachment. How long can one cling to what he fondles as mine? Some day he has to give up all he has and leave alone and empty handed. This is the inescapable destiny. One has to give up such assumed relationships and artificial attachments through rigorous analysis of their nature and give them up as quickly as possible. This is what the world teaches as the lesson of renunciation. " (to be continued) With Loving SAI RAMs, G.Balasubramanian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
