          Dear Children of this Holy Nation -

Another lofty ideal is perseverance!

Lord  Buddha struggled with his mind and overcame the conflicting thoughts that were pulling as harsh strings: memories of his young wife, memories of his little child Rahul, and the thought of all those wonderful enjoyments that he had as a young man when he was surrounded by all sensual attractions, naturally all this put his mind in a turmoil.

Thus tormented, Lord Buddha takes a vow that he will not stir from his seat until he attains illumination: “The flesh may shrivel, the skin may dry up and fall, all my bones may crumble into dust, but Siddhartha will not leave this seat unless he has attained illumination!”

Such was his firm resolve and determination!

He became an illumined Muni and a sage!


We’re most fortunate to have such grand ideals as part of our heritage from the sublime culture of Bharatavarsha.

We have considered them during these past three days.

May we be inspired to live a life of idealism and be an asset to our nation and through such an ideal life may we make our spiritual Sadhana also fruitful in God-realisation. May God and all the saints bless us to attain success in this worthy endeavour!

Hari Om Tat Sat!
END.

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

1. We have the famous immortal metaphor of the chariot explaining the Atma and the Body.       2. In the chariot sits the Sarathi ( driver), and the Yodha ( warrior).       3. In the body stays the Paramatma, the Self and the Jeevatma, the Ego and the entire technique of the Adhyatma Yoga is explained.     4. Here the Ratham ( chariot) represents our body,       5. Five horses are our five sense-organs ( Panchendriya),     6. Lagan ( kadjnan/saddles) of the horses is our Buddhi(intelligence),     7.  The Sarathi is our Mind,     8. Yodha is our Atma.
