HEART DISEASE CURE:-

-

1.) IGNORANCE, 2.) DESIRE, & 3.) ACTION. :- 

If only man is fully aware of his all-perfect omnipotent, omniscient nature! But, he is ignorant of his real spiritual identity and, because of his ignorance, he feels himself imperfect, and the revolt against this sense of imperfection manifests itself as desires in the mental zone. Desires throw open the volcano-peaks of the mind, and they erupt to throw out the scorching lava of thought-currents. Without a desire behind it, no thought can rise. None of you, is thinking now either of a wheel-barrow or the National Flag. But, some of you may be thinking of a fan because in the sweltering heat, you may have the desire to have a fan for yourself ! Without desire, no thoughts can rise up; a thought-current means a desire behind it. And when a desire gets fully established in the mind, in the onward flow of thoughts generated by it, the very desire in self-expression manifests as our actions in the outer world. 

THE CURE:-

Thus, ignorance at the spiritual level itself is the desire rising in the mental zone, and the desires are amplified in the grosser sense-world of objects, as our actions express themselves in the quality and nature of their desires, which in their turn, advertise the degree and depth of ignorance.  

RELIGION & SPIRITUAL PRACTICE TO GAIN LIGHT OF WISDOM:-

The attempt of religion is to eliminate ignorance through spiritual practices until             the devotees come to gain light of wisdom. The ignorance in man, manifesting as desires in his mental plane, comes out into the world as actions. Therefore, the kind and gracious  Rishies advised all seekers, first of all, to purify, control, and regulate the texture of their actions. "Be good; be tolerant; be merciful; be selfless, "are some of the advices common in all great religions of the world.


It must be the experience of all of you that a discipline of action, though in itself pretty difficult, is to the majority of you very easy compared to the endless strain in bringing about similar discipline in your world of thoughts. For example, the vow of Brahmacharya  though difficult, is not impossible for man of will and determination. But  to accomplish and perfect Brahmacharya of the mind is, you will all certainly admit, almost impossibility. We may, due to the values of decency included in us through education, good breeding, culture, and social pressure, desist from vulgar animal isms like rape or arson or looting; but how few of us are innocent of these criminality's in our minds! ( look through recent happenings in Bharatham, yes large numbers are still animals in Bharatham)[ to be cont--d]

The Mahabharata -  Speech by Swami Vivekananda - Delivered at the Shakespeare Club, Pasadena, California, February 1, 1900)   The other epic about which I am going to speak to you this evening, is called the Mahâbhârata. It contains the story of a race descended from King Bharata, who was the son of Dushyanta and Shakuntalâ. Mahâ means great, and Bhârata means the descendants of Bharata, from whom India has derived its name, Bhârata. Mahabharata means Great India, or the story of the great descendants of Bharata. The scene of this epic is the ancient kingdom of the Kurus, and the story is based on the great war which took place between the Kurus and the Panchâlas. So the region of the quarrel is not very big. This epic is the most popular one in India; and it exercises the same authority in India as Homer's poems did over the Greeks. As ages went on, more and more matter was added to it, until it has become a huge book of about a hundred thousand couplets. All sorts of

CHAPTER 2. HINDU SCRIPTURES : 1.5     1.The Scriptures : 5 5. The Ramayana The Ramayana, the Adi-Kavya or the first epic poem, relates the story of Sri Rama, the ideal man. It is the history of the family of the solar race descended from Ikshvaku, in which was born Sri Ramachandra, the Avatara of Lord Vishnu, and his three brothers. The ideal characters like Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, Bharata and Sri Hanuman that we find in Ramayana firmly establish Hindu Dharma in our minds. The story of the birth of Rama and his brothers, their education and marriages, the exile of Sri Rama, the carrying off and recovery of Sita, his wife, the destruction of Ravana, the Rakshasa King of Lanka, and the reign of Sri Rama, are described in detail in Ramayana. How a man should behave towards his superiors, equals and inferiors, how a king ought to rule his kingdom, how a man should lead his life in this world, how he can obtain his release, freedom and perfection, may be learnt from this excellen
