In the progression of the soul we reach the human stage, and to unpattern all the patternings of the mind a human being has to use the power of discrimination. That is why he has been given the gift of reasoning. Because of the patterning of past associations and past experiences our reasoning becomes warped. […]
Throw your guru into the river!
There was a small village by a river; and on the other side of that river was a city. Every day people had to travel by ferry boats across the river to go to work. On this one ferry there was a peasant and a pundit. Now, a pundit is a man who is learned […]
«I am not alone»
