"Can Reason Alone Lead to Truth?" - The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita

[DwayneBSapling]

Once again, thank you, Wise One. My over reasoning mind is always trying to (often successfuly) trick me into avoiding the practice my Heart knows I need. Your teachings help me to maintain awareness of this. "Blessed is he that knows the thief will come, for that one can prepare his house" - Jesus Christ (I believe)

Swamiji forgive me if this is wrong....but isn't praying to god just like an addiction???Even though it is good but would'nt u agree that it is like an addiction??

Always right to the point, Kriyananda makes it so simple, even I sorta understand. Check out the last minute or so if your listening time is short.

I also liked it about a third in where Swami says, 'If ya wanta get to Heaven just knock on the door and say 'my house is your house.'

I can almost hear God saying 'come on in, I got plenty of room.'

I love what Swami Kriyananda says at the end, "When you know in your heart, follow that feeling. It will lead you aright."

Though the argument here regarding the color green would not meet the requirements of a "rational" argument in a philosophy classroom, I get the drift: Sometimes its necessary to just follow the heart. While it may sometimes be necessary to "drop everything" and go somewhere to advance one's evolution and progress, in the final analysis, it's not really necessary to go anywhere to find Spirit, because it's always Here and Now.
