Theos-Talk Archives (October 2004 Message tt00157)

Pantanjali's Yoga Sutras is the basic book from which all I have heard and read here so far, is the clear instruction to not get involved with "phenomena" (bells, whistles, imaginaries) of any kind that is off the path of purification and service, however one practices, of which there are many practices, according to the needs, cultures, development and sincereity of the student, seeker, disciples et. al.(Of course, there MANY versions of the YS, according to the different schools. I h ave enjoyed studying in a agroup with sveral versions and trying to find common ground. 

The bugaboo is lanaguage. Even the Zodiac is an imaginary projection on the sky. So, what we believe, or wish for or see, is what we get??? Or, as we have discussed, there is an objective, subjective and an actual, which when merged gives us access into IT, whatever IT may be. 

We seem to need a universal language that brings all the different ways of talking about the same thing together.

Perhaps, when we get the theory of everything together, as a scientific expression, with the necessary philos/metaphoric/symbolic visuals, it will help us out of latterday ruins of the tower of babel.
