The Danger of MoralityThe man who remains bound by personal or social ideas of duty, necessary as they
are for the ignorant to tame their clamorous desires, will be indeed a "good" man, but he will never attain to the fulfilment of this
yoga [taught in the Gita]. He will only replace the desire for one
kind of fruit by the desire for another kind; he will strive, even more
passionately perhaps, for these higher results and be more bitterly grieved by
not attaining them.
There is no passion so terrible as the passion of the altruist, no egoism so
hard to shake as the fixed egoism of virtue, precisely because it is justified
in its own eyes and justified in the sight of men and cannot see the necessity
for yielding to a higher law. Even if there is no grieving over the results,
there will be the labour and strife of the rajasic kartA¢, struggling nd
fighting, getting eager and getting exhausted, not trigunA¢tI®ta, always under
bondage to the gunas.
It was under the domination of these ideas of personal virtue and social duty
that Arjuna refused to fight.
Sri Nagaraj Tanguturu has kindly provided the following information about obtaining the pravachanams
in this page.
If you do like, please try to purchase these from
the source so that you will be contributing to the noble cause (Sri Ayyappa
Temple). Here are the contact details so that you can order whole lot of MP3
cd's. Also another set you can get is from Hyd. I am giving both here.
First source:
BramhaSri Malladi Chandra Sekhara Satri gave excellent talks on Bhagavatam,
Ramayanam, Mahabharatam and Kartika Puranam at Sankara Matt, Hyderabad. He
was their Asthana Kavi and retired at the age of 70 (after 50 years of
excellent service to community by doing research and conveying the
information in the form of Pravachanamulu). Each purana is for 9 days
spanning 10+ hours of talk. Also Sankara Mutt made it very economical.
Each CD with 10+ hours of MP3 cost only 100 rupees. (These talks came to
my life as God Given gift to me, when I visited India).
