question

however a story first

ramakrishna displayed his stillness immobile stance in public many times i hear
i also read all his dialogs on daily basis written down by one of his disciple known was masterda in 1500 pages in bengali called kathamrita. it was then abridged and translated in english. that was chief source of all the books on ramakrishna and his disciples we come across. I read ramakrishna never referred to his guru by name. he referred to him as nangta, naked. It was regarded as traditional indian custom never refer to your object of worship by name.

I have often talked about yagyavalkya and his erudition - his knowledge of brahman and superiority over all knowers. he shut off gargi rebuking her not to ask ancestry or origin of brahman. But he asked instead a question that shut off all opposition to accept him having superior knowledge of brahman. he asked: do any of you instead tell me how one is reborn when life is snuffed out and there is no root for human like plants from a new plant may sprout! what is your root? he then quizzically answered his question with a riddle 'that' says a knower of brahman. he refused to say the same in first person.

we living in this plant is bursting with knowledge - logic mathematics astronomy politics psychology physics chemistry biology genome medicine cosmology language human nature finance economics commerce ... and it is ever growing. we also know the most important in my life is activity that is going on hear beating in my heart even when my mind is absent.

i also often talked about the lecture by vivekachudamani written by adi shankaracharya. the treatise on truth and false. literally translated it is the apex gem in heart.

my question is two in one. what is more important for a human - life mind faith god devotion money family offspring knowledge ... the invaluable without which the world is not worth living and cannot be lost no matter how many lives one may live.

a window that cannot be shut no matter what ...... my innocence - the crown jewel at the center of my heart

i know i do not know now

it does not matter how many times i have seen similar
i heard similar
or I witnessed similar
i have no idea
i cannot recollect
i cannot anticipate
i am an idiot
i am happy being an idiot

i do not know and i have no need to know
even if i must know the almighty and show respect if i meet again
i have no desire to reduce my suffering because of not remembering almighty

i do not learn
i forget
i do not recognize
there is no need to learn
not even any or all
