The Ram Gita - The Crest Jewel Of Vedanta

Dr. Arun Madhavan
Yoga Vasistha

The entire web of the Universe exists in the ideation of Mind. Nothing happens in the absence of ideation, without desire. Those who wish to realise the non-absence of the world, should be without desire and ideation!

We saw earlier in Sage Vasistha’s narrative of the story of Sukra - when his father Brigu was in Samadhi, Sukra with his subtle mind followed the celestial nymph and reached the heavens. Thereafter, he assumed himself to be a celestial being and sported various pleasures according to his sankalpas. When his karmic merits were exhausted, he was cast upon the earth, his godly body disappearing en route. He had to undergo numerous births thereafter.
