Mockery for the false :

-





To,


All Members,




Look! While God is bearing the responsibility of the whole world, it is a mockery for the false jiva to think that it shoulders these responsibilities, like the sculpture which appears to carry the temple-tower.

Whose fault is it if a passenger in a train, which is hauling a heavy load, suffers by keeping his luggage on his head instead of placing it on the rack?

Sri Ramana Maharishi

In the same way, there is a very dire and demoniacal tradition called vendetta in a part of Italy called Sicily. If one member of a family has been injured or killed by a member of another family, the first family will not rest until they have taken revenge. Then the other family retaliates; it can carry on from one generation to the next—an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. This is also continuing perseverance, but it is dire, destructive in nature, tamasic. It is the same principle—never give up—but its results are destructive in nature. Again, in the same way, the human too can also be persevering—in the pursuit of one’s desires, the circumstances one wishes to create for oneself. And they may say, "Whatever the gurus may say, whatever our ancestors said, whatever illumined sages and seers may have said, that may apply to some antiquated age, but now it no longer holds good. At that time it might have been very wise, but times have changed. Things are d...

 ============================================================ ============================================================== Friday, February 25, 2022.6:00.AM. (Spoken on February 11th, 1973) Post-11. ============================================================= The more I read the Bhagavadgita, the more I am wonder struck because I continue to realise how little I know about it. This discovery concerning the four conditions of being occurred to me only yesterday. After thirty-five years of reading it, this idea struck me. It contains many more treasures which even in a hundred years we cannot discover. It was spoken by the Virat. How can we have any measure of the extent of the knowledge of the Gita? So I appeal once again that everyone study the Bhagavadgita thoroughly – not like a parrot, but with tremendous devotion toward the word of God that is before us. It is spirit. “My words are not words but spirit,” said Christ. “They are flesh and blood. They are literally true.” If th...

  Chinmaya Mission: On the morning of 28 June 2025, Chinmaya Vibhooti came alive with divine festivity as it hosted Jeevan Hai Sangeet, a grand celebration marking the 75th birthday of Swami Tejomayananda, fondly known as Guruji. The atmosphere, blessed with cool rains and lush greenery, beautifully mirrored the devotion and joy that permeated the three-day event envisioned by Swami Swaroopananda, Global Head of Chinmaya Mission. Devotees from across the globe gathered in love and gratitude. In the inaugural session, Guruji humbly acknowledged the outpouring of affection, urging everyone to extend that love to one another, echoing the Chinmaya Mission pledge—“We stand as one family…” He reminded all that Self-Knowledge is the most precious wealth, fulfilled through Bhakti, and expressed deep gratitude to “2G”—God and Guru—whose glories must be sung with devotion. The first day featured a powerful story-theatre performance Avatarana by Ramaa Bharadvaj, exploring the divine origins o...
