Vidya vinaya sampanne / braahmane gavi hasthini
Suni chaiva swapaake cha / panditah samadarshina:
The scholars, highly educated people, or
who gained more and more worldly knowledge, or we experienced problems etc., realise that things are like that, like
as created by the god, or nature. They are ready to accept things as they are.
If we accept them there won’t be any problem.
A lemon is
sour. Why?
If people used to fight in “why” only then
it is meaningless? They should search for answer.
No. The age is such. In that age youth
will be arrogant, having aimless questions, strengthless arguments etc..
They are not ready to accept that they
were like it, they are like it and they will be like it.
But as ours age increases understanding
develops. Peace of mind develops.
If we cross that stage also, then we may
become a sage like.
Then we will come to that standard where
we can see all equal. There won’t be any up and down seeing things.
He is called Brahman. Brahman does not
mean a caste but a great scholar. Whoever
has that much knowledge and understanding can be called a Brahmin?
Manu said
that a Brahmin should have the following norms to be followed;
1.
Adhyayanam
2.
Adhyapanam
3.
Yajanam
4.
Yaajanam
5.
Tadhadanam
6.
Prathigraham
Bharathvadh Maharshi said that, “he
who always speaks only truth is called Brahman”.
Uttamam
vyavasaayam
Madhyamam vyaaparam
Adhamam udyogam.
Shankara
= sham karoti iti shankara.
Chandala,
who came face to face of Adi Shankara
asked whom he wanted to go away.
Whether it
is his body? or
Whether it
is his soul?
If it is
soul, how can it be because it is universally prevalent? It is deathless. It is
formless.
If it body
to get it away, how can it be? Because it is nimitta maatram.
Shankara
realised that it was none other than Shiva himself.
Bhakta
= he who follows truly. /
he who has unquestionable faith /
sincere, committed and dedicated.
If a manta
is simply recited then there is karma. There is no bhaavam.
A tape
record can also repeat whatever is recorded.
If a man is
doing the same, then what is the difference between TP recorder and human
machine?
Except some who are born destined with a
purpose, most of the youth cannot understand all these things.
There is no question of educating them.
Today’s people or students have only two
things in life
1.
Money
2.
Sex.
They don’t
need anything.
Most of the fathers are accumulating
money in such a way that their children should not suffer.
The next
generation will not be going to work hard.
Just like
copy and paste, they too get certificates and get jobs.
It will be the bad luck of those
companies to train these students to employ them for a single purpose.
They do not have vidya but certificates,
they do not have vinayam but arrogance, they
are not sampanne but empty vessels, etc.
Generation gap can be easily seen.
There is nothing like step by step but
only jumps. There are many loops or limitations but pulling on. Most of the
people are not living but enduring.
This looks
very nice.
If people
treat equal except in roti, kapada aur makaan, then comes the problems.
This
goodness became badness or inefficiency.
For one
thousand years the so called great India was ruled by foreigners.
When they
came to rule India our people went to get jobs from them.
When Babar came to India, in his army there were only
10,000 soldiers and canons. With that he could easily defeat 1,00,000 soldiers of Ibrahim Lodi. Why?
The Indian
were simply looking at the fights but could not drive all the foreigners from
the surface of our India.
When Robert
Clive, after conquering Calcutta, was marching in the streets with only
1,000 British soldiers. On either side of the road, at least more than 1,00,000
soldiers stood to see the march-past. Clive wrote in his diary, “whoever was
there, if each one had taken one stone and threw at us I should not have
established the British Empire in India”.
The ultimate aim of the Indians is to
get a seat in the Heaven. Nothingelse.
