Dear Members,
Respected family members of this great holy Nation.

Dear Parents, Teachers, children are our future, do not throw them to the beasts who promote evils to break this Nation, Do not allow children to fall prey to these demons such as urban naxals, communists and all wretched anti social political parties; keep vigilant, ....

#Philosophers have stumbled upon this difficulty and have gone to the extent of finding out if there is any qualitative superiority in our reason, in our intellects, in our rationality, beyond what the senses give us as a quantity of information. We have failed utterly. We have found nothing; we see nothing. But there is a peculiar feature in our reason, or rationality; and our question that is refusing to be ignored finally, whatever be the difficulty in answering it.
##The process of human history is nothing but the insistence of this question to receive an answer and the failure of humanity to provide an answer. If humanity had provided an answer to this insistent question, the world would have vanished altogether by this time. But no one has been able to provide an answer to this question, and the question refuses to be ignored. It is persisting in wanting an answer.
###So there is a tug of war going on in the form of human history or natural history – namely, the conflict between an insistence for an answer to the question, and the inability of the world to answer it.

#These sessions, The Divine Life Conference or whatever you may call it, are not leisure hours where you can listen to tales and stories from old men. Evidently, some serious questions in your minds have driven you here from different corners of the world, and I am sure you are seeking answers to these questions. You will not be able to receive these answers by merely moving about on the surface and hunting for gurus, reading books, and jumping from place to place.
##Nothing of the kind will be a solution. You will find that you are not yet ready to receive this answer. This is the reason why you are not able to find it, though the answer is pouring itself forth on your heads like a flood in the form of the meaning that is hidden behind the vicissitudes of nature. The transiency of things carries within it a meaning that is beyond the transiency of things.
###The ugly sight of nature’s activities secretly enshrines a beauty which can be visualized by an eye which is also your endowment, together with the physical eyes or fleshy eyes that you have, but which you have thrown aside and on which you have thrown dust and rubbish on account of a persistent habit of listening to the clamorous pressures of human society which has its own rules and regulations, falsely carrying the insignia of an answer to these questions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#And, we have religions before us. Religions tell us that they have an answer to these questions, but they have failed to give an answer.
#They have become mockeries.
#They have become only showpieces.
#They remain only as placards in conferences.
#Religions have become a part and parcel of this phenomenon of transiency.
##They have themselves got drowned in the flood, and instead of finding an answer, we have to give an answer to the question of why they drowned themselves at all.
###So pitiable is the state of affairs of man, of anything in this world.

#It is difficult within a few minutes to go into even a minor detail of this major problem – to unlock the mysteries before you or inject a vision of intuition into your heads – inasmuch as it involves various factors which have to be considered and aspects which have to be solved.
##You have to spare a lot of time for going deep into this mystery without getting prejudiced or having a premeditated conception in your head, or being under the notion that you are already on the right path and that every other person is a fool.
###All these ideas may have to be shed. You may have to be Reborn, with a capital ‘r’, if you are to receive an answer to this tremendous question of what the aim of human existence is.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.
#In an introductory remark to this main subject, I have used all the time, and I feel it is worthwhile. I postpone this theme for another day when it will be possible to continue the subject.
##Then we may be in a position to receive a brighter light in the midst of this tremendous darkness of oblivion and confusion which we call the world, which we call humanity, which we call anything worthwhile in this world.
###I conclude with these words, and I hope to see you again another day for the same purpose.

The End.

NOTE : IN YOUR HEART
#SATSANGAM :- Satsang, Satsanga, Satsangam - ( Sat = True, Sanga = Company. ) In Indian philosophy, it means : -
*(1) The company of 'Highest Truth',
*(2) The company of 'Guru,'
*(3) Company with an assembly of persons, who listen to, talk about, and assimilate Truth.
##This typically involves listening to, reading scriptures, reflecting on, discussing and assimilating their meaning, meditating upon the source of these words, and bringing their meaning into one's day to day life.
###CHILDREN OF HOLY BHARATHAM :
This Manushya Janmam is a gift of Lord, blessed to human beings, due to sat-karma of previous birth :
# Living Divine in Sanatana Dharmam is the need of the hour, to achieve Moksham in this janmam;
##Here Satsangam guides every one to march in the Righteous path; Education helps to discriminate right and wrong, good and evil;
###So keep away from student politics generated by urban naxals, communists, congress like evil groups;
####Follow :
*The great Rishi-s, great Acharya-s, great philosophers, who lived and shown the righteous divine path to us;
*The great men who sincerely honestly dedicated and sacrificed their life to build BHARATHAM FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.
