The Whole or the Fullness is not
concerned with religions
From one religion's perspective, it could be true
that everyone should follow or convert to their religion
in order to establish their God's order in this world.
From another religion's perspective, it could be true
that everyone should be allowed to follow their own religion
in order to establish their God's order in this world.
For God's sake, how could both of these conflicting
positions can be true from their own perspectives?
How could Dvaitam, Vishishtadvaitam and
Advaitam
can all be true in their own perspectives?
Either, they all could be true or all could be false
There cannot be in between unless I take a certain position
In a dream, all the characters or events are totally false
and immaterial and this attitude sets me (I AM) free
For a toddler who is listening to a fantasy story, all the
characters and events are totally true, no matter how
illogical the plot or content of the story is and this
attitude
gives me (I AM) immense happiness listening to the story
Either totally false or totally true is possible only when
You consider dream or fantasy story as one single entity
If you dissect and divide the dream or fantasy story, then
the division of right and wrong, truth and false are
inevitable
By looking at the dream or fantasy story as one single
entity
I have an option to either totally accept it or totally
renounce it
The truth is, you are the reality, in which all these dreams
and imaginations appear and disappear in the matrix of your
consciousness. The
appearances shines, thanks to the light
from your consciousness, you simply witness them and either
totally renounce all of them as false, the fleeting
appearances
or accept all of them as the truth (as nothing but God)
The conflict arises only when some of them are considered
as the truth and the others as the false. Remember, you cannot
consider certain portions of the dream or the fantasy story
as false and other portions as the truth and the divisions
only
appears in the dream or in the fantasy and not outside of it
Therefore, it is either all or nothing and no in between.
Based on the vasanas, time to time, the thought, speech
and the action may continue to take a position and attempt
to
divide the cosmos into truth and false, right and wrong, but
remember that too is nothing but appearance in your
consciousness
You are the whole in which vasanas and its projections -
thought,
speech and action are shined by the light of your
consciousness
Bottomline, you either take all of them as the truth (as
God) or take
all of them as the false (just an appearance you cannot hold
on to)
It cannot be either partially true or partially false. It is all or nothing
In either case, you stand as the whole for all (all
creations)
or the whole for nothing (no creation at all), simply put,
you
are the whole in which all the apparent divisions seem to
exist.
All the things, concepts, religions & interpretations - Dvaitam,
Vishishtadvaitam and Advaitam, can be taken as the truth,
as the same fullness is present as the substratum and
pervades
all of them. On the
other hand, even if one or some of these are added
or removed, the fullness the Existence-consciousness
principle (I AM)
remains as it is without any change, thus rest of them can
be taken as false
This is beautifully explained in the following mantra on the
fullness (Purnam),
Then there is no conflict about the things, concepts,
religions and their
interpretations within oneself (Adhyatma), with the universe
of objects
(Adhibhuta) and with the superintending Divinity
(Adhideva). The peace
(shanti three times) exists with all of them, by the
attitude of appreciating
the presence of fullness in all of them or just taking only
the fullness alone
Om poornamadah poornamidam poornaat poornamudachyate
Poornasya poornamaadaaya poornamevaavashishá¹£yate
Om shaantih shaantih shaantih
