Gita: Action is better than Inaction. |
I thought to burn down gita or sale it in scrap. Anyway i am going to
do it someday. I never read it because of its repitetive illogical
texts.
But in the end, just one message of gita impress me.
You must perform your duties however hard and unpleasant it may be,
bravely and with selfless dedication.
Because when there is no win or defeat, action is better than inaction.
It does make sense.

One day I will burn the kindergarten, but then I remember, there are more
children following on.
Perhaps I'll just "let go of it" ;-)

Tim,
"But then you wouldn't be a wanker :-| "
Then again what good would the classroom be without some good natured humor
which beams through genuine personality?
Thinking of burning of books may scorch the heart in some way, but as long
as the incineration is done for purification it can be of assistance in
leading the mind to even better acts for existence.

NeoJeet,
I smiled with great delight on reading your message. Metaphor and genuine
thought with the potential to leave the need of storage of information,
through books, journals, testimonies, and hard drives, forever.
That said:
"I recall a scene from movie, day after tomorrow in which people burned
books in library to protect from cold."
I remember this too from one movie I saw: "Day After Tomorrow." Just
pointing out the potential of the Universal Experience. ;-)
"They knew the religion very well. Jaan hai to jahaan hai (world exist
because you are alive)."
How true. And simply clinging to religion as a life raft in the ocean will
never get you to shore. It will only make you more religious. :-)
And *very* interesting comment as to the "world exists because you are
alive." Most certainly the *potential* for world-making exists in the hearts
and minds of travelers in space and time, who choose to dance the dance of
life together. And your comment speaks worlds beyond that. Thank You. :-)
"Gita states soul does not die. May be soul of this book will not die if i
burn down it -:)."
So true. The soul is eternal, and created by God. We are spiritual beings
having a human existence. The material world is of value only for its
symbolic nature in bringing our minds back to God.
See the signpost ahead? No? Then it is gone.
"Shutdown soul and reboot it. We lost RAM(random access memory, not RAM of
ramayan)."
One of my best friends calls it re-making your life. Having the courage to
let the present screen view crash due to lack of RAM, reboot, and then
utilize the opportunity to start anew.
As a matter of fact, every circumstance opens a gateway for heart and mind
to return to an awareness of God in one's life.
"Does ROM (read only memory) exist in soul? Is subconscious mind ROM and
conscious mind RAM?"
I would agree with the matter of ROM in regards to the soul.
The subconscious is a gateway to the collection of Thoughts, Universal Laws,
and Spiritual Truths, whereby we become recipients of all that is eternal,
and divine Knowledge, as well. The Book of Life is opened and we view it,
time collapses and we know experience quiet differently. And all of this is
initially motivated by a single decision to let RAM do what it needs to do,
while we enter into a communication, and Enlightened field, whereby
temporary memory serves little.
The conscious mind is a gift, if you will, a place to explore all we see and
enjoy, and simply dwell in the happiness right before us, if we choose. The
conscious mind is RAM, for sure, with an opportunity to delight in the Now,
and yet, be a gateway for entering the subconscious and superconscious, too.

I think the point was to not get hung up on the question of action itself.

Correct. We should act instead of just talking on action. But also
Krishna-Arjuna just talked in Gita. I see no action at the end of Gita.

posting to talk.religion.course-miracles?
You all seem to know each other and don't realize you're showing up on
another group, like the Twilight Zone.
Ghosts images from another group.
Anyway, hello and welcome to our board....

NeoJeet,
"so what is a 'course in miracle'?"
In a nutshell:
A very long commentary as to how young, initiate minds, learn to view the
world using abilities beyond the senses, and also a pathway towards
understanding how allowing your mind, through deliberate decision, to change
its views, can potentially be miraculous.
It's a document written in Christian terminology describing the sequence of
events taken from inner denial to revelatory recognizance. It also focuses
on God being the Authority, and the student never being alone in the
process.
Many have taken it to be an extension of religious philosphy, and enhanced
Christianity; others have received the intent of the words to simply be
another form of the description of metaphysical transcendence.

As i always say, there are 6.5 billion worlds on single planet earth.
Everybody has his/her own vies, state of mind. A zone.
I am living in zone of specific office work, physics, philosophy, net.
People who sit just next to me live in different zone. You people on
net live in different zone. When i mentally try to live in your zone,
it is indeed miraculous to feel that zone, world.
But we are not going to live in another world forever because we will
have to change our memories, nature, self and also circumstances.
That is impossible.
You can mould steel. You can not change it to oxygen, gold or uranium.
Every element and person has different atomic/personal configuration.
Let me take bath. I will feel fresh. I will wash away my mind with
dettol soap. Miracle!

You must perform your duties however hard and unpleasant it may be,
bravely and with selfless dedication.
Because when there is no win or defeat, action is better than inaction.
It does make sense.
Gita does not have all the answers, but it has far more of them than
you perhaps understood.
Burn the kukuran - it claims to have all the answers and yet, all it
has are useless fantasies.

Personally I believe that some events in Mahabharat and Ramayan indeed
happened but with time, fantasies are added in these epics. Krishna,
Rama really existed. It happened with Siddharth, Mohammad etc.
There is some truth in every religion. Rest are twisted fantasies.

Think of it this way, if you aren't doing anything, then YOU are
probably dead.
On the other hand, an idiot can get OTHER people dead when he decides
to "take action."
I always imagine ***** Cheney and W. Bush have that bumper sticker, "if
you don't like the way I drive, stay off the sidewalk!" on their
personal vehicles.
Or DDAMM: Drunk Drivers Against Mad Mothers.
The Iraqi quagmire actually serves my core interest, increasing
equality of conditions in the U. S.
Conservatives are, in fact, starting to think they've been had by AwOL
Bush. This is somewhat true but most of the destruction of
conservative habitat is coming from the internet.
Conservatism cannot coexist with cheap communications.
The Iraqi quagmire is like 9/11, a small event. I only attack it here
because it is soooo easy.
Not a top ten reasons it's stupid, not a top 100, but a top 1000. I
could generate thousands of pages of text on why it is ultramoronic.

- Pre Katrina W Bush
"The increase in equality of conditions is, therefore, a providential
fact. It has all the chief characteristics of a law of Nature. It is
universal and enduring. All men and all events contribute to its
progress."
-- DeTocqueville
