Why does God snatch something that we hold so dear to us? How can I understand God?πŸ™„

Asked by a 33 year old

God does not snatch anything nor does He want to play a spoilsport and make us unhappy. Suffering comes to everyone because we do not know the right way to live. We are attached to things and people which by their nature do not last or even if they remain, the joy we get from them passes away. This is the fate of all earthly life until we turn away from transient joys and seek lasting truths and permanent source of joy. Pain and suffering invariably come to remind us that the joys we are experiencing is limited and imperfect. This is meant to spur us to seek the Permanent. Indeed suffering comes to open an inner door for us and if we use the moment and the opportunity then we can discover the permanent Source and Joy within us.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

In Gita while revealing the secrets of Vibhuti and even later in eleventh chapter Krishna says to Arjun that what you are experiencing is not accessible even to Gods and Maharshis. And the vision of Vishwarup is not of exclusive oneness where multiplicity is lost but rather there is the totality of world, God, creation, destruction combined.

This is an alternate version which is clearly suspect. The original story is clearly symbolic of the triple forces of Nature, Sattwa, Rajas and Tamas, the three chariots of three asura brothers, notably of gold, silver and iron. The three modes of nature are never aligned. If and when aligned, the Asuras die and the Self is liberated. To do that …

In Book 2 Canto 10, Section 4 (68) ‘The Kingdoms and Godheads of Little Mind’, Sri Aurobindo talks about dwarf three-bodied trinity. Are they Thought, Desire and Reason? Is it right? If wrong then which are they?πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ“œβœ’οΈ

The dwarf triple bodied trinity are the three levels at which the present human mind operates. They are, in evolutionary sequence, the physical, vital and the mental mind or the mind proper.Β 

The physical mind is heavily dependent upon the senses and the raw data they provide. It trusts only that which can be seen and measured. Then there is the vital mind that takes flights of imagination, thereby escaping from the ‘sensory reality’ in search of that which is hidden. It is the mind that fantasises, and in the process, might hit…
