| Evolution of Love Part 2 |
| Most people just want to have an image and adore it, be it Ramana, Robert or Jesus. How much reality that image has is of little interest to them but much more the moods created by it. This kind of 'devotion' is still immature and selfish and closed-minded, unable to see facts and even getting angry when such facts are disturbing their pet emotions! This is the result of the statements our page made regarding Robert. There were many, and still are, who cannot even for a moment question their set of beliefs. And i replied to them that everyone should feel free to follow his or her intuition. But there were many others also, who wrote to me, or the page and really inquired, interested to hear facts even if these present a new angle. Bhagavan himself often pointed out that it is not sufficient to focus on his person as this would never reveal the fullness of one's own inner integrity. He even said sometimes to some mature devotees that they could stay at home as there was no need to come. He sent his master-disciple Annamalai Swami away, cutting all outer dependence and connection with him. Of course, we are most grateful to have all these wonderful photos and reports about Bhagavan, his teachings and stories of devotees interacting with him. But let us not get stuck on this outer level of devotion- which is still the realm of the mind, of religion, of change. Let us do our best to give all emphasis to the immutable stillness at the core of it all. |
