- Perfection
Integral perfection alone is perfection. To be almost perfect is absurd. If one of your limbs is perfect and healthy and strong, and you are blind, stricken with paralysis of the other limbs - of what value is the strength of that limb?
- Fragrance
The Mahamrityunjaya Mantra describes Lord Siva as Sugindhi - which is "fragrance".
It is obvious: after He leaves this body, it smells foul!
- Good Nor Evil
There is neither good nor evil, only thinking makes it so - said Shakespeare.
There are three streams of which Creation is composed : Divine or Satwic, Human or Rajasic, Animal or Tamasic.
We have been given the choice by God to swim in any of the currents. When we swim in the Tamasic current we see evil.
- Guru Training
Guru training an obedient disciple.
It is often a mystery - He creates paradoxical situations.
It is like the cosmonaut being put into a simulated space flight in a lab.
- Sabda-Brahman
What is needed is to look within and enquire - not to judge, to condemn, nor to condone - and that is what Krishna meant when He said "Jijnasurapi Yogasya sabda brahma-ti vartate. Even the seeker or enquirer into Yoga goes beyond Sabda-Brahman.
