Our sins are our mirrors

Have you ever stopped and really considered your sins? Our sins are often so shameful to us that we wish to rid ourselves of their ugly stain and rightly so. However, before we so hastily “bury” them under the blood, perhaps we ought to take a moment and ask ourselves why we did what we did. Our sins tell us things about ourselves. We usually sin because we want something good, we just go about it in the wrong way. Finding out what we want—and why we want it—can help us find an effective way to deal with the problem according to God’s plan and design. Usually we will find there is some underlying symptom—a deeper root—that needs to be dealt with.

Does Buddha portrait Divine Power?

The refutation of the notion of a supreme God or a prime mover is seen as a key distinction between Buddhism and other views. Hence, Buddhism is often aptly described as a "spiritual philosophy" whose sole aim is the complete alleviation of stress in samsara, called nirvana. The Buddha explicitly rejects a creator, denies endorsing any views on creation and states that questions on the origin of the world are worthless. Some theists beginning Buddhist meditation believe that the notion of divinity is not incompatible with Buddhism, but belief in a Supreme God is eminently considered to pose a hindrance to the attainment of nirvana, the highest goal of Buddhist practice.

conscious detachment

Life is full of conscious happenings that steer our mental perspective about religion. If someone says you don't do idol worship, where will you bury your conscious attachments with the Baby Krishna Idol in your Devotion Room. I personally trouble myself a lot to get my detachments. Time to rethink Swami Vivekananda's golden words "the key to any religion is the development of conscious attachment and conscious detachment". Highly applies to our modern world, can we detach ourselves from the mobile phone we attached ourself to the much root of ease and comfort, for a week to test our stain of saintliness.

Recently came across this audio work, Science & Buddhism, its not fantastically descriptive on Buddhist Theories, but definitely a good start for anybody.

reaction to scandals in saintism

I literally feel, to be precise, spiritually feel: the last sect of monk and saint-ism ended with Swami Vivekananda. I understand there is not true life of saint or monk or buddha after him. A monk is a being of high spiritual composure, one who has extreme control of all his senses. Sadly, lately no spiritual guru has been the way  Swamiji was/is!! 


I understand there are many meditators and fellow monkologists, but still all these men walk across the thin line of Saint and a Sinner..... may be thats a curse to the modern world.....

I dont get it!!

God is a cool guy with hippy philosophy, but Scientology never looks general. When someone comes to you and say there some 12 trillion years ago God created these valcano holes. It needs a daring heart like ed hardy art on black tshirts. I done get it. There are only 2 categories of people, Religious People and Sane People!!

Monkish!!

I don’t exactly look like a Monk, but my friends call me that way, since they felt I’m influencing them that way. I’m not sure. But I realize I have a whole bunch of things to give the world. Probably I look forward for the world to take it from where I leave.

Love is my Religion

If you want to be identified by a Religion; Donot want to say you belong to no religion; Do need a bunch of people united in a community or society; Why not, you say "Love is my Religion". Love is God, when hatred is Devil. Juice out your demons, lock them in your basement, bring love back to this world. Let you say "Love is my Religion" - Love Wins - Love ends War - Love unites - Love saves - Love's All.
