Discussions On ramanan50 Posts

I was curious to find out who discusses on the posts I have  written.

I searched under discussions for my posts.

Some discussions are very interesting.

I am posting some .

“

Time as we have seen is relative. Time in Indian philosophy is an Attribute of Reality, so is Space.
The Cyclic Theory of Time overcomes the Non Linear Theory of Time in that there is no seeming contradiction in comprehending different time scales. to illustrate,; you take a snap of an action, say a cricket match with two different cameras, one with a higher speed and another with ultra slow speed. If a catch has been under dispute, the ultra slow motion camera will show the exact action, that is, whether the catch has been taken cleanly by the fielder. The same information will not be available in a High speed camera. One camera shows an action and another does not show it. Which is True in relation to Time? That is to say, one instrument recording the event for the same period does not show it, though it should have passed the time at which the event has taken place and the other shows the same event, which it has passed. Recordings provide us with two projections. If it is due to the quality of instrument, then can we not say each one of them is correct or both of them are wrong? So when we talk about Perception, Time factor is one of the coordinates we do not know much about, if we accept Linear Theory. If we accept Cyclic Theory, we can say the event has happened and also not happened. The difference is the relative positioning.
Again, an event is a form of energy. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. If we accept the Theory of Linear Time, we have to say the event is no more or is destroyed. Under Cyclic Theory, this does not happen as everything happens, happened and will happen at the same time.

Recent researches on Human Brain have shown that the Brain anticipates action yet to take place and keeps the senses like eyes to receive the message and in fact receives (ref. TOI Aug 08) the message ahead of the event.

Time moves both forwards and backwards .Time is a Stream; so is Space. Per se they are Absolute. They are Relative to the observer. To put it in simpler words ,things exist in Space and Time at all times irrespective of your positioning and what we say to day has happened ,is right now happening at another level for an observer positioned to observe it. For them, our Universe is Past. Similarly for another observer, what we see as future, may be Present.

If we accept the Linear Theory of Time, we can not account for the time factor.

This actually makes more sense, that time isn’t linear. It’s only linear relative to my perception as the viewer. An attribute of reality.”

Sringeri,Kanchi Periyava- Unseemly Controversy.

The discussion among people who call themselves as Devotees of Kanchi and Sringeri is disgusting.

 

Kanchi adherents say that Sringeri Acharya travels by Car, ostentatious and does precious little for the Community.

 

On their part ,Sringeri Mutt followers say that Sri.Adi Sankara did not establish a Mutt at Kanchi at all as there can be one South Mutt and that’s Sringeri.

 

It is also added that Kanchi gets into unnecessary controversies that do not befit the Offices of an Acharya, much like the Pope.!

 

Kanchi retorts that Sringeri is the Asthana Peda of The Mysore Maharaja and Kanchi is for the common man!

 

Sringeri quotes JayendraSaraswati Episode and Kanchi had to squirm .

 

Are these people real Devotees, who are after the Truth and Realisation?

Kanchi Periyava.

Let’s get the facts .

 

True that there is no historical evidence that the Kanchi Mutt was established by Adi Shankaracharya direct.

 

So what?

 

If some want to get a vicarious pleasure in criticising Kanchi , Be it.

 

On their part ,Kanchi need not attempt to justify the Petam by trying to twist  History.

 

Kanchi Periyava is an incarnation of Compassion and a reflection of what a Real Sanyasi should be.

 

He advised Arthur Osbourne , who had come to  ask him to accept him as his Disciple hie advised him that his Guru is Ramana Maharishi;he will return dissatisfied with him at the first instance and later become Ramana’s  ardent Devotee.(Osbourne records this.I have posted on this)

 

As to Sringeri the dignity and the beauty of the Pooja of the Swamiji is to be felt to believed.

 

Sri Abhinava Vidyatheertha,Sringeri.

Contrary to what people think he was/ is very pragmatic.

 

His approach to the Duty of Sannyasa is ‘Perform duties as a Sanyasi  by Poojas and Bhashans and leave the Empirical to the worldly.

 

“He Is There’

 

Not many people know how humble and  Gracious he  is.

 

I had an argument(!?) with him (Abhinava Vidyatheertha) on the interpretation of a sentence in The Vedas and was down right rude.

 

He sent for me latter , explained me(where he told me I was Right!) and taught me Vedas for about eight long years( though I attended intermittently)

 

When I went to seek a Darshan of Kanchi Periyava for the first time, he picked me from the Crowd(( I do not believe in getting recommendation in having Darshan in Temples or The Acharyas) and said’

 

” you are learning from the Sringeri Periyava, make sure you follow what he says”

 

He had no chance of knowing this.

 

This the mutual respect these great souls had for each other.

 

Our goal is Realisation and we are not qualified to comment on these Sages.

 

Let me quote Excerpt for MahaPeriyava site;

 

Sringeri Periyava said about Mahaperiyava::

Mahaperiyava speaks highly about Sringeri Periyava’s thapas::

Below is what Sringeri Periyava advises to all – I can’t agree anymore.

Last but not the least, Mahaperiyava admits that Kanchi Vs Sringeri is not going to end anywhere sooner…

Kanchi Maha Periyavar a Rare Video

 

A rare video of Kanchi Periyavar,Sri Chandrasekarendra Saraswati from http://www.periva.org/, a site dedicated to him where one can view rare videos and listen ti his Upanyaasams.

 

“During the childhood of the Acharya, his father consulted an astrologer who, upon studying the boy’s horoscope, is said to have been so stunned that he prostrated himself before the boy exclaiming that “One day the whole world will fall at his feet”.In 1906, the 66th Acharya of Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham performed the annual Chaturmasyam (a forty-day annual ritual performed by Hindu ascetics while remaining in one place), in a village near Tindivanam in Tamil Nadu. This was Swaminathan’s first exposure to the Math and its Acharya. Later, Swaminathan accompanied his father whenever he visited the Math where the Acharya was deeply impressed by the young boy.

In the first week of February 1907, the Kanchi Kamakoti Math had informed Subramanya Sastrigal that Swaminathan’s first cousin (son of his mother’s sister) was to be installed as the 67th Peetathipathi. The presiding Acharya was then suffering from smallpox and had the premonition that he might not live long. He had, therefore, administered upadesa to his disciple Lakshminathan before he died. Sastrigal being away in Trichinopoly on duty arranged for the departure of Swaminathan with his mother to Kanchipuram. The boy and his mother started for Kalavai (where Lakshminathan was camping) to console his aunt who, while also being a widow, had just given up her only son to be an ascetic. They traveled by train to Kanchipuram and halted at the Sankara Math. By then, Lakshminathan had fallen ill:

I had a bath at the Kumara Koshta Tirtha. A carriage of the Math had come there from Kalavai with the people to buy articles for the Maha Puja on the tenth day of the passing of the previous 66th Acharya. One of them, a hereditary maistry (mason) of the Math, asked me to accompany him. A separate cart was engaged for the rest of the family to follow me. During the journey the maistry hinted to me that I might not return home and that the rest of my life might be spent in the Math itself. At first I thought that my elder cousin having become the Head of the Math, it was his wish that I should live with him. But the maistry gradually clarified matters as the cart rolled on. The acharya had fever which developed into delirium and that was why I was being separated from the family to be taken to Kalavai… I was stunned by this unexpected turn of events. I lay in a kneeling posture in the cart, shocked as I was, repeating “Rama… Rama,” the only prayer I knew. My mother and other children came some time later only to find that instead of her mission of consoling her sister, she herself was placed in the state of having to be consoled
