earthly evolution

Miracles are happenings where we see the result only without the process that leads to the result. It is like a mathematical problem where the solution only is given and not the gradual steps that lead to the solution. The steps may be shortened or totally suppressed, it looks like the puzzle, a riddle or a paradox.

Ignorance is usually equated with innocence. A child is ignorant, therefore he is innocent. spiritually however, ignorance does not mean innocence. Ignorance or unconsciousness or inconscience different degrees of the same thing that is to say lack of consciousness mean, at bottom, falsehood. It is through the ignorance that maya, the great illusion, was born. Ignorance is false apprehension, it begins with the same separation, "I am other than the Divine." That is how jiva is born through the ignorance. The world is separate from the Divine. that is how matter is born as or in inconscience. And the creation appears as evil. this sense of separation is a falsehood for in reality nothing is separate from the supreme consciousness, all is that.

To regain the Truth-sense, to move upward in the cycle of ignorance and falsehood towards this Truth-sense is the world-labour and also human labour.

Even in the state of separation under conditions of the inconscience and falsehood, in spite of all appearances the Unity, the Truth-consciousness remains intact behind. It is never effaced or obliterated.

the sense of earthly evolution is the gradual unfolding of the Divine, the Supreme Consciousness in and through the gradations of consciousness from the inconscience through unconsciousness and consciousness to supra consciousness- Matter wholly transmuted into Light.

God above and God within.

God is not only above or beyond the creation. He is also here within the creation. He is not only over our head looking down upon us. He is within our heart inspiring us, enlightening us, loving us, this is the dynamic Divine the Supreme consciousness concealed within the apparent inconscience of the material existence. It is that which pushes creation upward in its evolutionary course. It is that which lies behind man's ignorance purifying his obscurity leading him to a more luminous revelation.

In the Vedic image above shines Surya, here below burns Agni Both are aspects of the same truth.

Emptying and Replenishment.

The body is composed of cells, living cells. these cells from the standpoint of consciousness are desire cells, that is to say particles of desire, concrete and consolidated packets of hunger and thirst. A string of such innumerable packets of hunger and thirst is life. 

buddha said the cells are to be emptied completely. Emptiness of cell is Nirvana.

Not necessarily. For one may empty the cells of their obscure contents but replenish them with something of a purer order. this is a possibility we envisage and which we are working for. The Divine life empties the cell of desire but fills it with the energy of solar Light.

EGO.

To renounce is a greater delight than to enjoy.

To give is greater joy than to take.

To love is greater ravishment than to be loved.

In one it is ego, man's self centredness that limits, dilutes, and even perverts his happiness. In the other it is precisely the egolessness that brings the pure felicity. It is the ego, the personal shift that cuts the Infinite, obscures the consciousness which otherwise in its natural condition is always the supreme bliss and beatitude.

Ego turns reality into unreality, light into darkness, immorality into death.

And whatever the interim necessity and utility of the ego, originally and also ultimately it has no space or standing. For originally and ultimately and absolutely, it is the Divine that exists in and through the Divine, moves in and through the Divine to the Divine.

It is the Divine that knows the Divine through the Divine.

It is the Divine that dynamises the Divine through the divine.

It is the Divine that enjoys, loves the Divine through the Divine

Consciousness and Dimensions of View.

material world is three dimensional. every material object is three dimensional. but another dimension Time can be added to create the fourth.
