Synthesis is the art of shravana in the mind, manana for the intellect, nididhyAsana for the soul.<br /><br />Everywhere you look there are dualities in need of synthesis. But only when one has gone beyond them is it possible to do so without mental or intellectual effort. <br /><br />That is where we aim.<br /><br />Jagadananda Dashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887720845815026518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31351038.post-88017809771911895472017-09-15T07:00:15.155-04:002017-09-15T07:00:15.155-04:00
Jagadananda Das said: “Being driven to DO SOMETHI...<br />Jagadananda Das said: “Being driven to DO SOMETHING is dharma.”<br /><br />Śrīmaccidānandanātha: Let us open this comment by just saying the phrase “Chit Heads!” <br /><br />It’s amusing how language is perceived relative to the mind’s every-day immersion to Pavlovian conditioning (after all, did this opening statement almost make you decide to immediately not publish this comment without the instantly perceived burden of reading any further…). The Sanskrit word Chit (चित्) of course means “true awareness” in Sanskrit, but by its phonic association (by the minds conditioning) in the English language evokes (the immediate thought of) an entirely different message (a foot in each camp can sometimes cause one to limp a little [smile]).<br /><br />Words are very important, equally, the true sense of a word should be free of any constraint imposed by social conditioning of its perception (“all is relative to the mind of the observer”).<br /><br />My person would agree to disagree with your statement “Being driven to DO SOMETHING is dharma”, because the lens of my perception is focused from a different point of view afforded by practice, where in truth “being driven to DO NOTHING is dharma (Sanskrit: धर्म, from the √ dhṛ).”<br /><br />See: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E0%A4%A7%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%A4%E0%A4%BF<br /><br />And it is the dharma of doing nothing which actually drives the something (i.e., where something comes from nothing). <br /><br />Quote:<br /><br />“Apart from this distinctive feature of the Mālinī School, the other characteristic of the system is its practical yoga. The Mālinī culture understood theory and practice or philosophy and religion as two aspects of one thing. Theory without the inner experience can not live long. Religion with out the theoretical support is lame. In the system, both, jñāna and practice, go side by side.”<br /><br />Source:<br /><br />https://archive.org/stream/MaliniVijayottaraTantraEngTranslation1956VishnuDattShastri/Malini%20Vijayottara%20Tantra%20Eng%20Translation%201956%20-%20Vishnu%20Datt%20Shastri#page/n51/mode/1up<br /><br />What is my person trying to say? <br /><br />Sometimes a foot in both camps can cause one’s perception to become a little divided in order to look where both feet are (upon the ground) at any one time; the unity of both feet placed firmly elevated upon one’s own head can afford a completely unobscured view when both feet are placed firmly together…<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31351038.post-60759979165941202372017-09-15T05:19:19.806-04:002017-09-15T05:19:19.806-04:00Here is a Gaudiya Math version, without harmonium....Here is a Gaudiya Math version, without harmonium.<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsnAq-pxYasJagadananda Dashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887720845815026518noreply@blogger.com
