Man's Quest and HinduismBrahmajnana, Yoga
and Dharma are the three essentialities of Hinduism; wherever it
travels, these three must
spread. Shankara's
philosophy may compel the homage of the intellectual, Sankhya attract
the admiration of the analytical mind, Buddha capture the rationalist
in search of a less material synthesis than the modern
scientist's continual Annam Brahma [Matter
is Supreme], but these are only
grandiose
intellectualities. The world
at large does not live by the pure intellect... A goal
of life, a practice of perfection and a rational, yet binding law of
conduct, - these are man's continual quest, and in none of these
demands is modern Science able to satisfy humanity. In reply to
all such wants Science can only cry, Society and again Society and
always Society. But the nature of man knows that Society is not the
whole of life. Yajnavalkya's universal
dictum
stands: a man loves and serves Society for the sake of the Self and not
for the sake of Society.
What Science could not provide, India offers:
Brahman for the eternal goal, Yoga for the means of perfection, dharma
(swabhava-niyatam karma) for
the rational yet binding law of conduct.
Therefore, because it has something by which humanity can be satisfied
and on which it can found itself, the victory of the Indian mind is
assured.

Food for thought
When you said "Yes" to Me, you gave up the right to be like everyone else. That
is why you draw experiences to yourself that will cleanse yourself of that which
does not fit who you are. Over and over, again and again, until I make you see
that the past no longer works. I challenge you and tempt you every day with your
past, so that you may see that the past is the ultimate delusion. When you said
"yes" to Me you gave Me your body, your thoughts and your actions. When they
don't suit the new you, the uncomfortableness is unbearable. It will be so EVERY
time and when you realize this fully, then and only then will you completely
give up desire. For this is the only way man will learn. Very seldom does he
learn by quiet reminders. Man's desires and pitfalls are placed there so that I
may do My work. When you give up totally, then the temptations will fade. I will
never give up on you. Every slip will become harder and harder to bear and less
easy to remedy. You will tire of your foolishness because I love you and though
not completely aware of it, you did say "Yes".
