Over the ages, unqualified people have been handling, reciting, discoursing, rewriting parts, reproducing, analysing and doing all sorts of gymnastics with the holy scriptures. Down the line, complex religious rites and other attributes that have got attached to the scriptures have acquired prominence, leaving behind the esoteric truths in the darkness of ignorance. Even the scriptures now need to be liberated from the dust of time and sullied minds. Such a sacred task requires a highly advanced, pure and divinely inspired being.
The spiritual master, H. H. Swami Paramananda, gave a talk on Self-Education at Saddul College, Vacoas (Mauritius) on Wednesday 24th February from 11:00 to 12:30 hrs. Some 150 students aged between 17 to 20 yrs attended the session with much interest.
Is the public prepared?
Humans beings are not machines, therefore they cannot be controlled or regulated by laws. But unfortunately, modern education, religion and society as a whole have reduced mankind to a machine, therefore law becomes necessary. However, fundamentally, we remain human beings; we are both human and machine, thus the conflict. Without laws we are barbarous, but then laws suppress us and make us become slaves and robots. We are indeed in a mess.
If people were really awakened and thus responsible – only awakened people can be responsible – then we would not need any law. But are we awakened? No! With our present conditionings, if we remove all the laws in our society, then the situation will become unimaginably chaotic. Legalise gandia, Subutex, abortion or any other social sickness and the situation will be catastrophic. No, I am not a moralist or a religious leader. In fact, I belong to no religion for I am beyond religions. I simply want to say that people are not prepared for that.
