Theos-Talk Archives (July 2003 Message tt00017)

Hi Bart and all of you,

I agree. Your words are good.

Except for this: "We can never be 100% certain of anything."

My knowledge tells me, that this is not a true statement theosophically
speaking.
To me as a Theosophist - ParaBrahman is real, and is 100% certain on
everything.
I know I can become one with ParaBrahman.

Bhagavad Gita also states this as a fact:
"When all created things have passed away;
This is that Life named the Unmanifest,
The Infinite! the All! the Uttermost.
Thither arriving none return. That Life
Is Mine, and I am there! And, Prince! by faith
Which wanders not, there is a way to come
Thither. I, the PURUSHA, I Who spread
The Universe around me -- in Whom dwell
All living Things -- may so be reached and seen!"
(Bhagavad Gita: "The Song Celestial" by Sir Edwin Arnold)
Other translations gives the same.

When we reach there we never return as humans again.

That is my knowledge. Others might disagree.

Feel free to comment or do your best...

from
M. Sufilight with peace and love...
