Moment to Speak

Life after life circulates in the samsāra chakra, or the wheel of birth, growth, decay, death, and reincarnation. It is because of life's attachments to sense perceived objects emanating from insatiable desire clouded by a veil of ignorance that propels a being to move in a continuous cycle to satiate the insatiable desires through the cycle of action, reaction, and fruits arising from that. No one can remain away for a moment without karma or action, says Śrimad Bhagavad Gita. The issue pertinent here is the degree of attachment or detachment to karma and the consequential reactions and fruits thereof. As a consequence, attachments to objects of the senses tie one to karmic action, reaction, and resultant fruits. It also shows the importance our actions have on our existence, or what we like to call karma . Vedic literature also discusses rebirth; the Sanskrit word "bhavavhakra " is a synonym for the word s amsāra . Bhava , which means origin or worldly being, and ...

Existence has value as It is the infinity of the infinitude, absolute, imperishable, and beyond comprehension of the finite mind. Nothing is absolute in the cosmic order except Absolute Existence, which is Non-Relative. In the cobwebs of cosmic order, everything is relational, limited, and transitory. That way, the conception of value is also relational if it is related to something else other than Absolute Existence. Value is limited, ascribed, derivative, relational, and graded. It gets its valuation in relation to its existence. Further, the relative qualities are limited to space-time-causation. It can never be Absolute nor ever was it. At any time, it is tied up to a situation with other limited adjuncts. For example, gold or a currency note has a certain relational, or empirical value at a certain time or in a certain situation, as long as it is generally accepted as a medium of exchange. But air and water have intrinsic value beyond certain situational adjuncts but are subject...

The Subject is Infinity and Absolute Existence. The manifested universe, from the Absolute Existence, is the object and subject to finite finitude. The Subject does not require sense perception or recognition for Its existence, as It is Self-existent, Absolute, Self-luminous , Self-effulgent, Infinite, and Imperishable. Objects require It for their validation and existence.  Yoga-Vasistha (3.86.51) teaches that it is the subjective view of the objective that forms what is truly meant by yoga meditation and nothing else. This encapsulates a central philosophical insight that true spiritual meditation is not about escaping reality but about "taking this subjective view of the objective world" by transforming one's internal perspective of the external world.  This perspective refers to everything outside being yourself—the phenomenal universe and its contents. The standard sense perception views the objective dimension as independent, separate, and permanent entities. The ...
