KEEP IT IN MIND WHILE INTERPRETING THE SCRIPTURES

KEEP IT IN MIND WHILE INTERPRETING THE SCRIPTURES

It is not expected that the interpretations of any single sutra/sloka given by various persons are going to match in toto.

But that interpretation among the all interpretations is going to prevail which is in conformity of most of the natural laws in force and the evidences are supporting that interpretation. This interpretation is going to prevail so long as the next interpretation does not come into picture which is more in conformity with natural laws in force and is supported by more no. of evidences compared to the prevailing one.

If your interpretation of any sutra/sloka of any scripture is such that it cannot be understood by a simple ordinary human being, understand that your complete understanding of that sutra/sloka has still not happened in you.

Further understand that you are still not competent enough of "reading in between the words or lines" which is the foremost requirement before one starts expressing his/her own interpretation which makes sense.

If the interpretation seems not in conformity with the established natural laws in force (logic and evidence supported) directly or indirectly, "put your interpretation on hold for the time being" and "continue your contemplation/effort in order to increase the level of understanding required to clearly understand the sutra/sloka."

If the situation demands/requires make changes in meaning of the words/phrases used, so that your interpretation/understanding finds itself in conformity with the contemporary natural laws in force.

There is no harm in it as "there is no guarantee" that what we are reading in the scriptures are not the modified ones i.e. they are original ones.

WHO CAN BE SAID A REAL FOLLOWER

WHO CAN BE SAID A REAL FOLLOWER

Anyone who is engaged in fulfilling the divine desire (unfulfilled task) of his Master i.e. "trying to awaken him or others".

He may or may not be a an enlightened person, but must not be blindly following his Master's command as no Master has ever desired that his suggestions should be followed blindly.

But the sad part (hard/bitter truth) is that so called followers are engaged in just opposite (blindly following) to what their Masters had desired.

The state of affairs of """the so called religions/spirituality of the world"""" and the resulting quality of present society speak volumes about this fact.

This same state of affairs weas there even in olden days including so called Treta, Dwapar, etc. as Mahabharta and Ramayana are like proofs.

Attention

Every life form requires/needs attention to experience/know/realise its existence.

In the case of humans the demand of attention is much more than what is required/needed.

This may be termed as "greed for attention or EGO."


"The persons who hanker for more than required/needed attention gets maximum superficial attention (from mind) for the longest or shortest possible time period as the case may be depending upon the quality

while

the persons who do not want more than required/needed attention, get maximum deeper attention (from heart) for the longest possible time period."



Buddha, Mahavira, Jesus, Mohammad, Osho, Raman Maharshi, Nisargadatta Maharaj, Ranajit maharaj, Bagawath, J.A.Krishnamurthy, U.G., Mirabai, Tukaram, Namdev, Kabir, Jnyaneshwar, Rahim, Sirdi Sai, Kiranji, Neemkaroli Baba, Eckhart Tolle, Pappaji, etc . falls under the second category of persons.

BE HERE NOW IS THE GOAL WHICH IS NOT A GOAL AT ALL (Modified)


Whatever (including consciousness,experiences,expressions, etc.) we know are just informations about (...).

The so called knower we generally refer and emphasise upon appears to be more important.

But as you know the knower and the known (informations) and the process of knowing last as long as the beautiful and intelligent body lasts.

There is no report after so called death whether so called consciousness or whatever you name it, remains/continue or not.

But the concept of eternity of so called consciousness is very much liked by the mind as it (we) requires continuity because of JIVESHNA (desire to continue living). We never want to die. We(mind) cannot think of our discontinuation/death due to fear.

We feel satisfied with the concept of eternity of us.

Just think if somebody (especially a Master) says you there is no such thing as eternity about your existence or whatever you have known are all illusion/false, then what will be your reaction.

In case if you get somehow convinced with this( non existence of eternity of consciousness) , the mind will loose interest in anything whatsoever, except the basic needs of the body for living.

By this you will concentrate more in living naturally rather than what will be in future as there does not remain a goal.

This is the purpose of spirituality, i.e. BE HERE NOW.

Spirituality has nothing to do with concepts like present, past , future , eternity, soul, consciousness, God, Almighty, Brahman, Ishwara, etc. as all are nothing but mental entertainment which is more luxurious than physical luxuries.

The body which is already living in the moment has nothing to do with all these concepts or so called truth.

To transport a person to this state (BE HERE NOW) is the whole purpose of a Master and for that the Masters plays various tricks by giving a no. of methods to practice knowing fully well that they are of no use.

They want us (mind) to get convinced on our own about this fact (uselessness of practices).

After that what happens , it is said by all Masters without an exception that , that is beyond expression i.e. inexpressible.

This is said as I understand, because the mind does not come into picture in the moment (living in present or here now) which we can say is the only time and cannot be caught by us.

If there is no mind how can you say anything, because to say anything you require data (past and projections) and that does not exist in the moment or in other words you cannot catch hold of the data as moment is passing very fast.

Hence inexpressible/unknowable.

Thus you are established in """HERENOW"".

All the entertainments (including spiritual) comes to NOT.

This is also known as NATURAL STATE in which all animates and inanimates except humans are staying.

It is not that we are not in that state, only thing is that we are not aware of that.

That is all.

BE HERE NOW IS THE GOAL WHICH IS NOT A GOAL

Marina Barbari, whatever(including consciousness,experiences etc.) we know are just informations about (...). The so called knower we generally refer is more important. But as you know normally the knower and the known(informations) last as long as the beautiful and intelligent body lasts. There is no report after so called death whether so called consciousness or whatever you name it remains or not. But the concept of eternity of so called consciousness is very much liked by the mind as it(we) requires continuity. We never want to die. It cannot think of its discontinuation/death.

By this you will concentrate more in living naturally rather than what will be in future as there does not remain a goal. This is the purpose of spirituality, i.e. BE HERE NOW. Spirituality has nothing to do with past ,future,eternity,soul,consciousness, as all are nothing but mental entertainment which is more than physical luxury. The body which is already living in the moment has nothing to do with all these concepts or so called truth. To transport a person to this state (BE HERE NOW) is the whole purpose of a Master.

Misunderstanding is worth

Thanks to our misunderstanding(especially about ourselves) because of which only we are interacting with each other in order to understand the things in so called right perspective.

Imagine a world where there is no misunderstanding at all i.e. all are enlightened.

Will it not be a boring/dull place as there will be nothing to interact with. No food for thoughts.

There will be no sign of life as recognition of life is possible only where differences at mental level are there.

Further in order to level the differences by way of reaching to a common understanding (which appears to be impossible especially in so called spiritual matters) people are engaged in (life expressing in different forms).

In a sense it is good that differences continues even after long interactions leaving further room for interaction so that we can remain in touch with each other , otherwise you can imagine...

TRUTH

"There cannot be any absolute statement on TRUTH and which can be said to be the true representative of TRUTH."

"There cannot be any discussion whatsoever on "TRUTH AS SUCH"."

"This has never happened in the past and will never happen is the future."

All that is possible is discussion about the TRUTH i.e. after effects of realisation of Truth i.e. what changes can be visible/seen in the realised person (this is the most important).
