Some Thoughts in the World

[SS91]

Some Thoughts  in the World

Brahman, the eternal Trimutri, or Three-in-One God:

Brahma, the Creator;

Vishnu, the Preserver; and

Shiva, the Destroyer;

Submission to Fate, since man is not outside,

but part of Brahman;

The Caste System, determined by the laws of Manu;

The Law of Karma, that from good must come good,

and from evil must come evil;

Reincarnation, as a chain of rebirths in which each soul,

through virtuous living, can rise to a higher state;

Nirvana, the final stage reached upon the emancipation of the soul

from the chain of rebirths;

Yogas, the disciplines which enable the individual to control the

body and the emotions; and Dharma, the Law of Moral Order,

which each individual must find and follow to reach nirvana.

Vegetarianism (vegan lifestyle)

Ahimsa ("no injury", avoidance of all animal products)

Yoga exercise

Astrology and horoscopes

Gurus and swamis (monks and spiritual leaders)

Shanti Paath (Prayer for Peace)

AUM dyauh shantir antarikshagwam,

shanti Prithivi shanti rapah,

shanti roshadaya shanti vanapastayah shantir,

vishwe devah shantih,

brahma shantih

sarvagwang shantih

shantireva sama shanti redhi.

AUM SHANTIH SHANTIH SHANTIH

May there be peace in Heaven
Peace in the Atmosphere
Peace across the waters
May there be peace on Earth
May peace flow from herbs, plants and trees
May all the celestial beings pervade peace
May peace pervade all quarters
May that peace come to me too

MAY THERE BE PEACE PEACE PEACE
