- Wisdom
If you have X amount of knowledge and you reduce it by X amount, you arrive at wisdom - X minus X is nought!
In the analysis of Evil-Live-Love, we discovered the same principle: the antithesis of "I" or the ego-principle is 0 or Wisdom which expresses itself as Love.
- Bhagavad Gita
(a) Man must do his duty. If he does not, the social structure is disrupted. It is God's mission to uphold righteousness, that God is within each man. Hence Man should pursue Dharma and take measures as His Instrument to establish Dharma on earth.
(b) Dharma is the power of God which upholds creation and sustains and preserves life. Man should understand this and thus free himself from the feeling that he carries a burden of responsibility and from the sense of want which 'compels him to acquire and hoard'. Dharma works through him and others for mutual sustenance and protection.
Dharma is Love - which is unselfishness - Swaha.
- Suffer
You ask why a good man suffers.
I ask, "Do only good men suffer?"
The wicked ones suffer, too, because it is the nature of life here.
Just because you think you are good, you feel that no suffering should come to you!
- Do Nothing
"None of the Incarnational activities affects me", says Krishna.
Yet He came to destroy the wicked, often by means which seem to us unenlightened people to be unethical! Arthur Osborne argues that it was necessary for Krishna to do what He did. Yet, perhaps the solution to the problem is simpler. He did nothing at all - the evil doers' own evil reacted on them!
- Death
The Hindus anticipate the triumphant conquest of the world by the Lord as Kalki. The Christians believe in the
imminent second coming of Jesus. The descriptions of these two events strangely tally with each other. And they
together agree with the description of the explosions of the hydrogen bomb and what Oppenheimer thought when the first bomb was exploded - 'I am the all-destroying death - Gita.
The inference is forbiddingly horrid. Yet, we have to face the Truth. The Buddhists, especially the Chinese and
Tibetans believe that the next Buddha will be Maitreya, the Cosmic Friend. This is the silver lining in the atomic cloud!
