(Spoken on Bhagavadgita Jayanti) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sri Matsya Narayana Temple is uniquely located near the ocean and offers comfort and peace in Uthandi, Chennai. Chinmaya Tarangini was inaugurated by Pujya Guruji Swami Tejomayananda on 24th May, 2015 during the Birth Centenary year of Swami Chinmayananda. 8.17.2021 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is a supremely friendly power operating in this universe. We are not likely to be aware of this fact always. We have a natural feeling, mostly, that we are totally friendless in this world. Wh...

Chapter 7:The Entry of the Absolute into the Relative - 5. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Na buddhibhedam janayed :  : Do not go on telling, “You are wrong.” Nobody is wrong. They are all in one category, one degree, and you are also in one condition. They are like a baby crawling, and why should you condemn that crawling baby as if you are now superior to it? Everybody is on a level of evolution, and every level of evolution is a compulsory stage; therefore, nobody is superior, nobody is inferior, and no work is bad, no work is good. There is dignity in every work, and every relationship is divine in its meani...

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Saturday, August 14, 2021. 7:40. PM. Chapter 10: The One Supreme Absolute Alone Is - 5. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Bhagavadgita accepts the Samkhya principles of the dualism of prakriti and purusha, with a great proviso that there is something beyond these two principles which are like the two wings of the bird of the Supreme Being, but the wings themselves are not the bird. We have a similar thought in Spinoza in the West, who had a notion of the Supreme Being by way of what we call substance, with two attributes of space and time. The attributes of Spinoza are something like the purusha and prakriti of the Samkhya according to the Mahabharata, the Manu Smirti and the Bhagavadgita – not Kapila's or Ishvarakrishna's Samkhya. There is a practical utility in ...

PM.  Chapter -12. God and the Universe - 3. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is, again, the ahamkara, the Cosmic Self-Sense. The mahat, the Cosmic Understanding, or Intelligence, is above the ahamkara, according to the Samkhya, and beyond that the indescribable continuum, the avyakta, as it is called, the prakriti of the Samkhya, beyond all which is the Supreme Resplendence of the Absolute—call it purusha or by any other name according to the schools of thought. These are, broadly speaking, the constituents of the entire layers of the cosmos. These are the eight forms of prakriti, according to the Bhagavadgita, though the Samkhya classification differs here in the manner of the gradations and specifications of these principles. B...

PM. Discourse 11: The Fifth Chapter Begins – Knowledge and Action are One -3. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intense motion sometimes looks like no motion. If we see an electric fan moving at high speed, it looks as if it is not moving at all. We do not see any motion, though it is at the greatest speed. If we put a finger into the fan to see whether or not it is moving, we will know the answer. Otherwise, from a distance it looks as if it is at a standstill. Hence, intense activity is like no activity; and so-called activity has its visible form when individuals are the medium of movement. The smaller, grosser and more limited the individual, the more visible is the action and the more limited is its effect. But the larger the di...
