Ciao starkeeper e grazie !!!
Purtroppo il link... non funziona... 
Sono convinto che in passato l'amato Maestro sia stato Arjuna... vedi nel libro "God talks with Arjuna" a pg.216 (che non so come sia in Italiano) parla di come Krishna sia la figura dell'anima mentre Arjuna sia l'ego... ossia il piccolo sè. Il tutto si basa si questo
Ecco cosa dice la parte di preciso:
"The Soul Krishna, says to the ego, Arjuna: "O my lower self, you must lift yourself to my plane of higher Soul consciousness! Even if you destroy the wicked attachments of the senses, you are foolish to think that the senses themselves will be destroyed! Your higher Self only purifies the lower self; it does not destroy it."" (God Talks With Arjuna - pp. 216, last paragraph).
Ciao! |

Tra l'altro in questo libro Yogananda dice esplicitamente di essere stato Arjuna in passato. Cito la parte:
Citazione:
In that precious time, Master asked me,
"Who do you think I was in the distant past, who could have better written the Gita in this life?"
Several years before I had asked Master if he was Arjuna, but he did not answer for he was not ready to
divulge his secret yet. By the way, Master asked the question, I answered, "Vyasa, the writer of the
Gita." Master said, "No, but I remember you had asked me years ago if I was Arjuna," then I joyfully
exclaimed, "You were Arjuna," he smiled his, "Yes." I then asked him if Rajasi was with him at that
time. He answered, "Yes, he was one of the twins, the positive one, Nakula. He was my favorite
brother and I loved him more than I loved anyone else. I was also his Guru then too. Krishna was my
guru and Babaji, being Krishna, is still my guru, Sri Yukteswarji was my guru by proxy for Babaji."
Then I asked him if I was also with him at that time, he looked at me and said, "Sure, you were." I
asked him if I was a man or a woman, he answered, "You were a woman, you have been a woman for a
long time and you will continue to be, a long time to come." I then asked who I was, he answered, "I
don’t have to tell you everything." I just said, "I suppose I was one of the mothers who went around
looking for her loved one who had fallen on the battlefield."
Si, è un peccato che molto materiale sia andato perduto o cmq sia introvabile. Anche io avevo perso la speranza di leggere questo libro di cui avevo sentito parlare da altre parti ma con un pò di fortuna sono riuscito ad averlo. :P Ve lo passo volentieri. :) |
