Guest guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 I think when a person's realization about self and cosmos and being part of it becomes high, the understanding of other's as part of self seeps in. He/she wishes to help others, cannot see others in pain. He becomes more humble in nature. Even at that state when anyone calls him/her god he/she doesn't accept it,because he/she knows it's not true and because his longing for knowing the unknown is very strong. The brightness of goodness is so clear that he can see the spots(of what is not true) very clearly. I feel all human beings are bounded in limitations. God is independent of this. We have his ansh (i.e. goodness) which can free us from limitations. Regards, BRIJ. no_reply Thu, 5 Mar 2009 11:04:14 +0000 RBSC : To Chandran / Who is GOD? Dear Mr Chandran: Where did you learn about the 72000 cells and 72000 dieties? And what about the other animals? Any idea on how many cells do they have? Just curious... As far as the question of GOD goes, all our ancient scriptures, to my understanding, considered the COSMOS as GOD. And various parts of cosmos, i.e. various anshas of cosmos is considered different devatas. Since we are also part of the cosmos, we are also part of God. That is where, as I understand, the older traditions e.g. Hinduism was very advanced. But slowly, man is losing his ability to comprehend beyond himself and his surroundings. And so idol worship came into more and more practice. E.g. Siva and Shakthi is nothing but the power of Creation. Even if you pay attention to the Linga and Yoni. But to a common man, Sivalinga is treated as the idol of Siva. Just my penny worth thought and learnings from different sources. I am not yet fortunate enough to be receiving these knowledge from any renowned Gurus. And so I may be grossly wrong. Thanks again for reading this. Best regards, Sreevidya.
