Dharma 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2001 Following is an excerpt from a new age newsletter with Acharya Samadarshini of Satyaloka Monastery. The rest of her interview is posted at http://www.skyboom.com/ddasa/index38.html I thought is was appropriate to post during these turbulent times for the USA as it tells of the impact mukti would have on the world. Basically that an enlightened being cannot create war. "For a person who is Enlightened he has no suffering in his life, therefore he also does not create suffering for the rest of the world. In his life the psychological & spiritual suffering ceases forever. And also such those physical problems that are arising in our day-to-day life, which are basically arising because of our wrong thinking patterns, the way our mind is structured, and the negative merits that we are acquiring through our thought, word and deed, all these would come to an end in the life of a person who is enlightened. If you look at the world you find that happy person gives happiness to others and such of those people who are constantly mad at others, hurt others, curse others are the ones who are themselves suffering within. No happy person can give unhappiness to another and No unhappy person can give happiness to another and Love is not something that can take side in an unhappy person. By your Enlightenment you are saving society from there. A human being who is suffering is a danger to the world he is living in. So when you are Enlightened not only have you acquired a state of bliss & joy but you are also helping the rest of the mankind live in peace. That is the first thing you’ll have to do. A person who is enlightened would naturally know how to develop his child, would naturally know how to help his friend who is in crises, how to share his life with his spouse. These are things that would naturally come to him. An Enlightened person in a house, his consciousness would be affecting his family, office colleagues, work place, town, city, and it is the greatest bliss that can happen to any body, to have an enlightened being in ones place and that the Foundation is giving to mankind. I think any body should run for it now. [This message has been edited by Dharma (edited 10-01-2001).] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
