Re: Losing Hope
Dear Dhanya,
I'll tell you a secret.
If curiosity is not what guides you in life, if it is "wealth", "peace", "safety", "success", "acceptance" - then all this dharam karam & jazz is not for you.
You are then indeed wasting your time. Infact Shri Vishnu may be proactively doing you harm.
So much for this "double edged" legacy called Hinduism!
P.S.
An erroneous explanation about Sat says: "truth is One." But as we know, truth = satya, not Sat. Satya comes from Sat, it is not the other way around.
What is Sat?
Sat is : going out of your cocoon, venturing outside, letting fresh air come in, communicating with the "other". And, all this requires the same thing: curiosity.
Things to remember:
1. Life = yajña
2. Depth of Āstika knowledge is directly proportional
to the richness of Sanskrit it is written in
3. Āstika = Bhārata ("east") / Ārya ("west")
4. Varṇa = tripartite division of Vedic polity
5. r = c. x²
where,
r = realisation
constant c = intelligence
variable x = bhakti
