Dear Brother,
Topic itself changed.
You cannot call the vision stereotypic, because it is not visible in pratical, it is possible that these ideas are not new and are there in the scriptures, but I have never met them, or in the way I can meet them now easy to understand.
In the history there are example of Indian queens burning themselves when the husband dies. It is a matter of purity, when her husband is over she cannot be with anyone else. This has even become a tradition later on, but initially it should have been out of own wish. Also it is said in India on the path of bakti to the woman – your husband is your everything, God, guru etc. It is not correct because not every husband is god. It is also a memorial of the Confluence Age, but strong devotion, faithfulness and commitment of a woman to her husband is not seen in practical. It is the woman that supports the family. Now she is ashamed and afraid to bind herself completely to one. She does not sing songs for deep love for only one anymore, but for freedom, freedom of choice, freedom of relationships. She runs away from the family in seek for entertainment.
Now the woman does not care for the family /I speak out of observing the circumstances where I live/ she prefers a career. For her it is waste of time to care for her baby, but takes a baby sitter. She can even appear on a billboard naked and this for her is success. What would her child think that my mother is there in front of eyes of everyone? OK what would the husband think? The more attractive to many a woman is the more successful she things she is. But it is like the prostitute the ways she does, is it not.
Man has no more authority. He cannot control his own self. What is common is to suppress the woman with desire.
Husband and wife to live together like Brothers is very new conception. Baba via Virendra Dev Dixit says Brothers are free to take any course in their life. We can of course say this is good, this is bad, but nothing more…we cannot fight.
For me there are very fine ideas because here we are very far from them. To try to close a shop for alcohol and cigarettes, because it is close to a spiritual place or school…no one would dare do this here. Here this shop is not seen as something bad. To have to have a license so to produce and serve meat…meat is not considerd bad here. Or to censor a film …such high moral standards are very much needed. We all very well know what is good or bad, the smoker knows it is not good, but is so used to it, it has become natural for him.
The concept that a woman is weak and is influenced and the more influence the more her purity suffers, at all that woman is pure, here we don’t have such conception. Here woman are respected as with the same vices as men, and they start acting like that, without control. She does not like to be controlled, the man does not like to control his wife. She likes to act as she please. It is normal to have a lover, to like many, to meet many, to talk to many, to have vision for many….this knowledge at least makes me see the difference, realize the state we are in. Here we think we are progressing etc. Also the conception that all men are vicious…it is also new.
It is a noble act to respect woman. One can get a Noble prize for this. It is said wherever woman is respected deities live there.
It is not normal to protect her..Here. It is normal to attack her.
Also here it is not considered that lust and anger are great enemies and one should conquer them. Lust is considered as big achievement, anger is just normal.
So for these Indian women it is said that they are like cows that to whichever stake you tie it it stays there for the whole of her life. It is concerning the matter of marriage. Here when there is a little cross, the woman is not ready to tolerate, she shows her ego and goes away or chase the husband. She does not consider the family as a value. She is ready to brake it at every moment. When she comes home from somewhere /where does she have to go at all…however/ when she does come home from time to time she does as if out of great virtue of generosity. “See...I came to you”. She does not like to rely on one husband, and be beside him whatever he is rich or poor, good or bad. She has her own desires. Her own persona. Her own life.
It is said that BapDada are ready to go, but why don’t they go. It is a family. They wait for the children. I like so much what Baba via Virendra Dev Dixit says, be it as God or ordinary person that he cannot do anything alone, a mother is needed, a couple is needed, it is a family. It is so different to all those gurus who were single and were great. This is so ordinary – a family.
To live together without desire is in fact natural, but we have the bad habit of bodyconciousness and lust appears.
Why the family is called mud? no one accepts it like that. It is because it is something worldly, connected to the body, the bodies are together. The intellect can be pure if it is occupied with spirituality.
So many things of this world are extra and with this knowledge become useless, like romances, poetry, songs, films, pain, separation, jealousy, forgiveness, if we renounce bodyconciousnes we won’t need fashion, show business etc.
You say it is hard. What is hard? Reality is our own internal reality we create on the way we see the world. We have done the world like it is now.
There is a memorial of the philosopher stone. Whatever gets in contact with it becomes gold. It is a memorial of the Confluence Age and the practical company of the Supreme Soul, but also we can do that whatever we see through the eyes, we continue to produce thoughts of knowledge inside, everything becomes instrumental to cause our internal churning where we finds essence.
The One? Who is the one?
OK. See. I’m an ordinary human being, but can I behave ordinarily if I think I have found God? I think like this in this point of time. If he is not God but an ordinary human being still I would like to support him. If the ideas are only his, then fine, for me the ideas are fine, they resonate, so for me this is God.
Whether The Knowledge is true or false, we can find something for us there. For me life has no meaning if we don’t dedicate ourselves to some meaningful purpouse. I would fight with all of my heart to remove poverty and suffering from the world, but I can only stay with this idea, without The Knowledge how to make it in practical. Now I see it entirely possible. I’m completely convinced each soul has a right to peace and happiness. One should not labor for food. I’m happy that there is this task going on, I’m carefree, with or without me it will be successful. I may as everyone fall and turn the opposite, who knows the depths of our nature, we are doing just that – exploring our own self, so I can also fall, but even falling I can understand I have fallen, I can know what is good and what is bad and that I have gone on the wrong side. At least we can know what is good and what is bad. It is some kind of a beginning. Then we may stick to what is good.
Whether in India is like this, or like how it is, it is not important now. How we create our world according to our own internal world if important. We change and the world changes. We change our world inside of conceptions created by us with our visious mind and by others with their vicious mind. How is India like today...we see how it will be like a "Golden Sparrow", we see it possible , because the potentiality is there. In the Murli it is said that we become instrumental to uplift Bharat, is not it?
