Introduction to Vedas and Vedanta - Part 30

Dear All,


Let us summarize what we learnt in the earlier posts after we were clear about the classification of Indian scriptures.



JIVA (INDIVIDUAL)





And, the Guru throws light on Sadhana Chatushtaya to the sincere aspirant thus:-




We have learnt about the three qualifications in detail in few earliest posts till yesterday's post.

They were viveka, vairagya and the shad sampat.

Through viveka, we could discard/ eliminate our age old attachments to all ephemeral objective pleasure when we developed vairagya towards the unreal.

This was about DISCARDING.

And, upon discarding our attachments/ attraction/ slavery to all that were unreal, what did we actually acquire???

We developed 6 virtuous qualities.

And, the last block with a question mark is all about what we ultimately acquire, after gaining the 6 virtues.

Let us learn about the missing block in detail in the upcoming posts 

Love.





Sri Sathya Sai Baba
