Quote from the True Charm and Power of Vedanta
A view of Vedanta
Yes this is the great game . Something is there
because of which the one reality appears as manifold. But i am not convinced
that the individuals in this manifold difference in the quality of Divinity
that they manifest. in this , all are the same . There are difference but they
are differences of kind only . For example there is a kind of consciousness. Let
us say tree consciousness, which is different from human consciousness, but it
is equally effective, equally great. I can imagine also along the same train of
thought, that there is a kind of consciousness known as stone consciousness which
is equally as important , as significant , and as high as human consciousness
or as ANGELIC consciousness- it is just different in kind. As long as I am completely
identified with human consciousness or tree consciousness or lion
consciousness, but if i could become pure consciousness, separating myself form
the human ingredients in me. I could then identify myself with any type of consciousness
and perceive it intuitively, directly. I myself have known some who have done
that, and they say that tree consciousness, for instance , is an equally high
state of consciousness , but completely different from human consciousness, but
completely different that when the hour
passed in which their consciousness was beyond the limits of its own kind of knowing
and they had indentified once more with human consciousness, they could not
express what they had experienced in that state of elevation in terms of their
human existence.

Prayer is an earnest hope or a wish, a request
for help or expression of thanks made to God. Petition is the kind of prayer
that begs for determinate objects. Supplication is when things sought are
indeterminate. Obsecration is a solemn adjuration, asking a favour.
Thanksgiving is the returning of thanks for benefits received.
By reading and meditating, we learn a lot, but
by prayer, we obtain the grace to do it. Worldwide, the tradition of prayer has
been a source of immense faith and strength. Brahma got the Gayatri Mantra, by
akashvani, divine voice. It is said that because of this, Brahma got the power
of creation.
The holy rosary of Mother Mary is a profound
and meaningful form of prayer. Therein we contemplate the central mysteries of
Christian life — the redemption of humankind through the incarnation, passion,
death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God’s son born of the blessed Virgin
Mary. The rosary is a powerful form of traditional prayer; it involves our
whole person.
The rosary employs repetition, an essential
element in the language of love. As a result, we identify with our Lord and his
blessed Mother by applying their saving deeds to our own life with its joys,
sorrows and triumphs.

But, if He exists?
I drive joy There was a doctor in Benaras who
spent 7 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this,
his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting
ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The
doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten
minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire
lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you
grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive 4m.
