Namaste all
This is to draw your attention to what I think is important
material for all seekers of spirituality along the path of
SanAtana Dharma and therefore for the members of this list.
I am referring to the ongoing thread (of which some of you
may be aware) on an English translation of Kanchi
Mahaswamigals discourses on Advaita Saadhanaa in the
other list Advaitin. In this series, from #51 onwards
which appeared (on Aug.16, 06) in
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/advaitin/message/32575
the subject matter is the Role of Bhakti in Advaita
SadhanA. And in the ongoing sections, he is going to
discuss the Inner Organ (AntaHkaraNaM) and the heart, the
spiritual heart, the target for the Bhakti (Love) of an
Atma-Sadhaka, nirguNa Bhakti and saguNa bhakti, how the
higher-grade bhakti dissolves the ego, how the jnAnis
physical body rests and how those of the others leave the
mortal coil, the exact role of Brahma Loka, the myth of
the Uttarayana
time for leaving the body, etc. etc..
To my knowledge these matters are found only here in their
most elaborate and authentic expository form. Of course the
Tamil Original is found in
http://www.kamakoti.org/tamil/dk6-109.htm
and in succeeding web pages. For those who cannot read
Tamil I would recommend the reading of these posts by all
members on this list. You may start from post #51 (titled
Section 35: What is Bhakti?) of advaita-sAdhanA mentioned
above.
If the moderators of this list have no objection I shall
post the advaita SadhanA posts from #52 onwards on this
list also.
PraNAms to all followers of SanAtana Dharma.
