Opis

From the time immemorial man is in the quest to know himself, his source and the destiny. The analysis of philosophical research started with the external nature. The search for the cause of creation was linked into the search of nature of a man himself. Is the man only a physical being? Or has a spiritual base? The new vista was opened with the study of man. How does he think? Is the power to think inherent in the mind itself? Does any extra power impel it to think? They wondered whether there was any first principle or Ultimate Reality underlying the world outside and also whether there was such a thing underlying man himself. If so, were two the same? They worked out the answers through the most rigorous way. They sought answers to the Truth in the depths of meditation. In the process man found God, religions and the spiritual system, in order to know & experience the true self. "Death is certain to come one day to all that is born" Whichever undergoes the process of birth has to meet the contrary phenomenon of death. It is the Matter that perishes. The individual Spirit will continue its journey with its level of performance (Karma) again. There is no difference as far as the soul. The death cannot be hindrance for his spiritual growth towards perfection. What is Death? Everyone knows for certain that all of us will have to take leave of our body we loved so much, one day sooner or later. The end can come in any form, illness or accident or some other way. There are no much questions about the death. But the confusing question is, what is that die? Is there anything remaining after death? Does death means the complete annihilation of a man? Is there something within him that survives? What is the meaning of death and how is it related to life? If there is no relation, why is he born in the first place? It is true that these questions are raised in very few people. Some don't want to think, some don't like to think, few are afraid to think, few don't have time to think, with their busy schedules of day to day life. However, we must admit that, almost everyone is afraid of the death. Majority of the people, knowing that they cannot escape death, they wish, it happens without pain, induced out of chronic illness or the accident. Many are the thinkers who have been tantalized by the horrid beauty of this tearful incident in life, called death. Even today death is a fascinating idea with all writers and thinkers, authors and philosophers in all climes and conditions. But often we find that men of the required caliber rarely come to solve this serious problem. It is only the sages (Rishis) of ancient, who in their quietude had prepared their instruments of understanding and feeling to the required efficiency to soar into the sublime Realms of the Beyond, that have really succeeded in observing coolly, in analyzing scientifically and in concluding truly the what, how and why of the phenomenon called Death. This question whether there is existence after death or not is not one which belongs to the Realm of the mental Mind and the Intellect. These instruments of feeling and knowing do, at their best, give us only some vague directions pointing towards a world of Knowledge that actually lies spread out beyond their own frontiers. In order to travel towards that land of pure knowledge the ordinary mortal, however intellectual and sensitive he may be, has not the necessary vehicle. It is only the great Masters of renunciation and wisdom who have specially developed their intuitive faculty that can at will take one into these Realms Beyond. In short, such transcendental questions cannot be explained by words and established through any of the ordinarily known 'proofs of knowledge' such as direct-perception, Inference, comparison etc. The only way to solve them is through the scriptures, which are the words of Wisdom given out by men of greater realization, the Saints and Sages.
