Perhaps Sri DVN Sharma prabhuji might have written that mail directly to my e-mail Id.  By mistake I might have thought it was his reply to the forum because I had written my mail to the list…Sorry.

Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!

There appears to be something wrong with the thread. Sri Bhaskarji appears to be answering certain observations of Sri DVN Sharma, but these have not appeared in the thead at all.

Is moksha a saadhya?


Ø  No, it is svayaM siddha.

What do your scriptures say?


Ø   I think same as above prabhuji.  ‘your’ scripture!!??  Is it not ‘our’ scripture prabhuji ☺

You need not make any effort to be in a natural state.


Ø   If we want to reach that natural state from our current abnormal / unnatural state effort is required in the form of sAdhana.  As you said below, after realizing our natural state, we would come to know the effort was not required. But till that time, effort (sAdhana)  is required, don’t you agree with me prabhuji??  And what is that sAdhana??  shamadamAdi samskruta mana which is enable to grasp the shAstOpadesha, AchAryOpadesha is karaNam instrument.  And advaita tradition says to realize that effortless state, shAstraeva pramANam, though this pramANa does not categorically figure out that effortless state.

This is
what all the realized souls say. Perhaps all sadhana is for realizing that sadhana is useless.


Ø    Yes, running is required to realize that running was actually not required to ‘reach’ the destination ☺

Be quiet is the teaching of Ramana Maharshi. சும்மா இரு.


Ø     If every realized souls literally keep their silence intact, then there would have been no brahma jnAna teaching whatsoever prabhuji ☺
Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!
