On 2001/04/30  09:33, Harsha \(Dr. Harsh K. Luthar\) posted thus to the K-list: Thank you Nina for raising some excellent questions. I will post a response 
in the evening to both the Kundalini List and HarshaSatsangh. Our own Heart 
is the True inner guide. All the Sages, and teachers and men of God say that 
only. It is of no use trying to copy anyone. We are the same in our humanity 
but also all utterly unique. Buddha said, "Be a light unto yourself." We are 
Light. How life is lived is the outer manifestation of form and different 
for each. The Great Teachers simply remind us of the Light Within. The Same 
Light of Awareness that shines through their eyes shines through yours.
 
Love to all 
Harsha

Subject:  Re: [K-list] Ramana Maharshi
 Oh, Pepper, words of my heart! I second the questions you ask.
 
I have wondered a great deal about the abuse of the given body to sit in 
enlightened limbo. To what end? Why not death? Though, had that "selfish" 
bugger of a begger not come along to take care of that given body, that 
certainly would have been the result. Suicide through indifference?
 
I have been wondering, also, about how the emulation of Ramana Maharshi can 
in any way be practical. Anyone who wishes to respond to this question is 
invited to give hard evidence direct from their own life. I'm talking about 
jobs, family, fights with the spouse. I'm not talking about a review of 
what Ramana Maharshi said.
 
Harsha gently and in a round about way has pointed to the ability to remain 
in a state of constant equanimity and awareness of (). Acceptable. But I 
still don't know how this is applied in a practical sense.
 
Furthermore, I still don't understand if this is real or right.
 
Where does passion sit in the devotees day to day? 
Where does the body? 
Where does the dealing with injustice? 
Oh, and what of sex and pregnancy and birth and life?
 
This world as we know it, the world that fed the master, would crumble if 
we all played out his life in our own.
 
stirring the pot, 
not feeling a great deal of equanimity, 
not feeling the need to, :) 
Nina
 
Oh, where could we be without this notion of enlightenment? /lament
