A turbulent or sense-bound mind may derive little benefit from solitude. We are inseparably bound with our mind. It does not let us alone despite a change of place, influencing our behaviour all the time. Our mind and senses are by nature outward-going: the mind is ever eager to be in contact with the sense organs, which in turn are happy to meet their sense objects. We are accustomed to living in company and relish talking to others, sometimes possibly on no subject. The mind loathes retreating into solitude, leaving its accustomed outward mode.

Adhyayana Vidhi – Injunction Enjoining Vedic Studies

Adyayana Vidhi is an injunction enjoining Vedic studies. Traditionally, adhyayana is defined as committing the chosen Vedic texts to memory by repeating the teacher’s recitation. A student would live in the house of the teacher for a prescribed number of years. Generally, there could be many who would like to study a text out of interest or curiosity. So the question is – why should there be a specific injunction prescribing its study? The discussion on this need of the injunction forms the first topic of the discussion of Mimamsasutra of Jaimini,where the purvapakshin (the school of opponents) suggests that the injunction refers to the need for committing the entire text to memory as Vedas are authority texts. The austerities prescribed to be followed during Vedic studies, too, would make sense as they are to be followed during the period of the Vedic study alone. Mimamsakas opined that the injunction includes enquiry into the meaning of the texts. The texts must necessarily commu

Why Does Man Look For God?

Simple straightforward answer to the question why does man look for God is because of fear and fulfillment of desires. Another reason for the search of god is fear of death. Insecure future, every growing list of desires, health issues… are some of the other reasons. But very rarely some want a perfect ideal – a perfect being that fits into all the definition of goodness or social ideals. The child want a god for everlasting delivery of chocolates, youngster for his or her love, adult for a secure future and wealth and the old want god to skip death.

Desires are product of human mind which itself is wrongly tuned. Thousands of years ago man prayed to god for food and survival. Today man prays for costly cars and gadgets.
