- Fear
When not worrying about the past, you are worried about the distant future.
"A famine may come and I may not have food to eat" - you create the famine now and suffer.
Fear of disease creates it.
Fear of death kills you several times a day.
- Soma
Freshly pressed juice could not intoxicate - this English word is unfortunate!
"Toxic"- intoxicate - is to introduce some toxic matter into the system.
Soma invigorated the performer of the Yajna.
- Purify
You cannot recognise God until your heart is purified.
Better purify your heart first - then you will see God in all names and forms.
- Con-fusion
Without confusion there is no fusion.
- Self-Justification
Self-justification is one of the worst of evils and perhaps the greatest of our obstacles.
Even Rogue Ratnakar justified his actions!
And, there is nothing that can save us from that evil as Guru-seva or surrender to the Guru can.
When Ratnakar surrendered himself to the Maharishi, he "saw" the truth about the world and, eventually, God.
