UNIVERSAL RELIGION !

" I view goodness as universal religion,goodness that one's heart admits and approves,goodness that feels,heals and soothes,goodness that doesn't tolerate hypocrisy and yet is not violent in retaliation,goodness that bridges gulfs of distrust,goodness that forgives and doesn't forget to continue collaboration,goodness that bears the stamp of soulful love and bliss,goodness that shares the blessings and secures the suffering silently and goodness that reminds the kind God at all odds and evens of life ... .If all religions that humanity has met with so far were taken away and replaced by goodness alone the world could be a virtual paradise that potentially it is.
Goodness is true religion. "

ALL FOR THE GOOD !

"The last thing that everything boils down to is finally goodness and this comes from true humility,self-effacement and renunciation.Only then could one be peaceable with oneself and the world around.

The goal of civilisations,cultures and spiritual penances, including thereby all thought, speech and deed is the good which we pine for day after day and life after life !

And the ultimate good is God and until one has become That one can neither be nor have nor do good in an integral manner.

All life is an aspiration, howsoever distorted it may appear to be on the surface,to find God and be Him.True religion is to have discovered that Godhood within and without."

BEING NOT A BURDEN , A JOY !

"To be and at the same time transcending the being,almost in a spirit of 'this yes but not this and beyond too' not betraying escape from the given,could be an ideal disposition where one would have freed oneself of the entailing baggage even though carrying the same in all humility and joy.Being,not being and beyond in the same cup of tea like tea leaves,milk and sugar !"
S M Mishra

THE THREE MODES OF BEING

" I call them as civilization,culture and spirituality.the first two everyone would agree to,the third for one not believing in spirit or self is obviously redundant.Let him or her call it the core of one's being which is nurtured or clothed with culture and civilization.

Civilization will always be the outer details of execution.mores and chores,titbits,gadgets, trophies and even nuclear warfare - all our advances to pose and post ourselves to show off,not bereft of meaning and purpose but limited and always confused.

Culture is above physicality,it pertains to the mind and intellect,deeper values like non-violence,truth,art,aesthetics that elevate one to distinct heights,it's nurture of nature within man to lead him on further expanses and possibilities,stabilising him in beatific experienceslike never before.The Vedic seers saw this aspect as 'samskriti'that they spread over the world for lasting good.

Spirituality or Realisation of the core essence or being is at the root and the stem and branches are culture and civilization.This is the bedrock of our holistic design of universal life.The Vedas assure : yasmin vijnaate sarvam vijnaatam bhavati.Know this as matter,shunya,vijnaana or brahman or God and carry the eternal force of visualised conviction following a definite tradition or independent of it in your just own light and set yourself free to be an incessant worker for the establishment of greater good on all the planes of existence.
See,the branches could be chopped off,the stem axed and brought down,but sooner or later the deep laid root will come to life again with new stem and branches.Her is what we call the Sanaatana Dharma !

This Dharma cares for our needs both sacred and profane as they call it for being and becoming.This is more than global in natuire,it's universal.You can't conceive of global weal with neglecting the universe outside !"
