You may note that space (akasa ) is also one of the five elements of prakriti and hence subject to destruction/creation/ replacement. Akasa is the source of other elements as per our our philosophy. Whatever is contained in space is subject to change. That is why when the Christian tends to say his God is in Heaven, we are prompted to ask, where is it ? When he says, it is in the space , we smile. That God, if He is in space, will be subject to change and must be subject to birth and death.<br /><br />Our position is that elements are part of prakriti, which is nothing but a mixture of three gunas. The prakriti is conjoined by the purusha, then we see all types of moving and stationary lives. This concept is variously taught as Siva sakthi in PuraNas, prakriti - purusha in Gita.Venkatasubramanianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13118766889489405275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538384764175537872.post-84481286902464570232012-08-09T01:57:43.060-07:002012-08-09T01:57:43.060-07:00Shri Venkatasubramanian,

Interesting writeup. Though I ...Dear Sri Venkat ji,<br />Interesting writeup. Though I cannot claim to be even a % of as learned you are, I would just put in a few thoughts on the subject<br />1. We do have birth dates of all avtaars. The only possible discussion is on the time period. However even for that there are some indications in scriptures, probably that is how the time was recorded in those days<br />2. As many other people visiting your site state - it is the message that is more important rather than who delivered the message. I read somewhere - Ramayana is more valuable than Ram<br />3. There are people who will always ridicule but that is not because something is missing somwhere. It is because there own mind is so narrow that they are unable to understand these scriptures....God bless them<br /><br />VineetVineet Bhatiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04373047854123607037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538384764175537872.post-55391945280331454002009-05-03T04:07:00.000-07:002009-05-03T04:07:00.000-07:00Well, I think that your deep explanation is fruit ...Well, I think that your deep explanation is fruit of your natural wisdom for you being from India. I would explain saying that your ancestors hoped that people believed without "historical prove", just seeing the logical and beauty of their teaching. This belief would be the first condition to attain new degrees of spiritual knowledge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538384764175537872.post-27394406823159957812009-04-29T09:08:00.000-07:002009-04-29T09:08:00.000-07:00Welcome Anil ji, Supply chain guru ji

But not rest of the population. Even Jesus Christ doesn't talk about history or timeline.Neverthless, Christians (who created the religion after Christ) kept the history live through recorded timeline and that is one important criteria for Christianity to have spread across 2/3 the planet in such short time-span of 2000 years. Hindu way of life, all its incarnations, and its history dates back to more than 15000 years B.C. (using Gregarion calendar for common basis), yet due to lack of sense of history, all our scriptures are now mere epics and mythology. The development of human life through advancements of science and technology at exponential rate has depleted the Indians of their spiritual consicousness due to lack of historical proof which depletes faith and belief. Not all are born with faith & belief in God naturally. Even if so, the up-bringing in this fast materialistic world, it fades away. Everyone is now thinking logically and looking for rationale and reasoning behind happenings. Without solid recorded proof future generation will not carry forward the belief. Osho's (who is not a good reference anyway due to his failure as a spiritual master)justification is simply a demonstration of his inability to be dhoor dhristi. Our ancestors couldn't keep the future generations in mind. But I am glad that research based on astronomy (which are luckily recorded as star, planetory and constellation positions in our age-old scriptures) is now ready to reveal the historical basis. It is our moral duty to keep the record for the benefit of future generations. Trying to justifying the mistakes and inabilities of our ancestors simply portrays the repetition of mistakes.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01714313125106931489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538384764175537872.post-62373189537018394082009-04-24T08:02:00.000-07:002009-04-24T08:02:00.000-07:00Absolutely beautiful explanation.

What all written on Masters Philosophy the disciple wish to submitt at the master's feet and put master's name as author as a mark of respect and love to the guru which is unthinkable and "immoral" to the westerner! For instance, it is said that some of the writings attributed to Bhagawan Shankaracharya were in fact written by his disciples and in some cases after the masters demise under the name of Sri Shankaracharya!Thimmappa’shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07379292651026338024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538384764175537872.post-22722958007127178282009-04-23T22:22:00.000-07:002009-04-23T22:22:00.000-07:00You are right.
