 ======================================================================== ======================================================================== Sunday, September 25, 2022. 06:00. Chapter 26: Being Spiritually Alone to Oneself-3. ======================================================================== The law of the higher self, therefore, is a protector of the lower self. Hence, the higher is the friend of the lower, but law can also look like a terror. The disobedient may feel that law is an enemy. The obedient feels secure in the face of law. The one who is obedient to law is ever secure, always protected, guarded by the strength of law. But the disobedient is always in fear of law. The rods of administration are frightening. The arms of law reach up to the corners of the earth, and so the thief has no place to stay anywhere. So the law, the administration, is an enemy sometimes, but we know very well it is really not an enemy. Thus is the meaning here.  The higher self i...

Is it to be absorbed totally? And do we have to see to the deathbed of the entire objective existence, or is it necessary to strike a lesser note and come to an agreement with factors which are far below this level of extreme expectation? Yudhishthira was wavering, he could not come to a conclusion; and we too are wavering. It is ...

========================================================================= Saturday, 28 Oct 2023 07:00.  Chapter 13: Cosmology and Eschatology-7. ========================================================================= But the path of Darkness is the path of return. Whatever good we do in this world is repaid in its own coin and our good deeds bear fruit in the afterlife. Just as our bank balance can get exhausted one day if we go on drawing cheques continuously, our good deeds can exhaust themselves by experience; and when the momentum of our good deeds is spent out by experience in our future lives, we are supposed to revert to the condition from where we started. Hence, actions should not be performed with any personal motivation. Even when we perform a charitable deed, it should not be done as if it is a prerogative of our effort. The great point made out in the statement, “Let not the left hand know what the right hand does,” has a philosophical meaning behind it, apart from i...
