Flaming Moral Purpose

Fire A (by premasagar)

You must have a flaming moral purpose so that greed, oppression and exploitation shrivel before the fire in you.

Who Can Be A Guru?

Not far from heaven (by Photochiel)

Who can be a guru? An enchained person cannot liberate others from bondage. Only a liberated soul deserves to be a guru, who can help others in attaining their salvation.

A person who is free from bondages is a liberated person. Judged in this light, only the Supreme Entity is a real liberated soul. So only that Entity is liberated in the true sense of the term, and it is only that Entity who can be a guru.

No One Is Low

Give us this day...

No one is insignificant, no one is small, no one is low. Suppose there is a drunkard, a fallen man. You have no right to hate him. You talk with him, persuade him - if necessary scold him for his regression. All these efforts are alright, but you have no right to hate him.

Hating is not a courageous quality or a creditable tendency. When every being is His own creation, how can you hate anyone? How is it possible that you meditate upon one form of the Supreme and abuse another?

Neohumanism

Take the plunge...! (by carf)

Explaining humanity and humanism in a new light will widen the path of human progress, will make it easier to tread.

Neohumanism will make people understand that they are not merely ordinary creatures. This philosophy will liberate them from all inferiority feelings and defects and make them aware of their own importance; it will inspire them to build a new world.

The Real Yoga

Shapes in the Snow (by peter bowers)

When the unit consciousness merges itself fully and is finally identified with the Supreme Consciousness, that is called yoga.

Here, the microcosmic drop merges into the vast ocean of Consciousness. What is the supreme goal in the life of a spiritual aspirant? To merge the individual existence into Parama Purusa, Paramatman, the ocean of Macrocosmic Consciousness. This is the real yoga.

Ascribing Godhood

Abandoned - II (by carf)

In this universe, there are so many people who do not get any respect from others - the downtrodden, half-fed, half-naked humanity. You are to pay respect to those downtrodden people. You are to elevate their standard, their socio-economico-cultural standard.

If you do not pay respect to them, how can you serve them? You are serving the downtrodden people by ascribing Godhood to them.

Devotion is Identical With Love

revised orison (by s e l v i n)

That which makes the mind soft and strong and strenuous, so it may keep itself in a balanced state even in the condition of pain - that which perpetually creates a pleasant feeling within, is called love.

Devotion is identical with love. The moment devotion is aroused, the love of the Supreme comes.

Fighting at Each and Every Step

Sat, 19/01/2008 - 12:22

twas a dark and stormy night (by darkmatter)

When a spiritual aspirant tries to enlarge his mind, naturally debasing forces become very active. The aspirant is to enlarge his mind and spirit by fighting at each and every step, each and every stage of life.

In his mind there will be those two belligerent forces. That is, the spiritual force and the debasing material force will start fighting amongst each other in the mind. One force will try to exalt you towards the Supreme Self, another force will want to degrade you, goad you towards crude materialism.

He who wants to keep himself away from fight is unknowingly committing suicide, mental and spiritual suicide. Each and every man should be ready for fight - fight in the mental stratum, fight in each and every stratum of life. This is Tantra.
