synopsis
(Translated as in Krishna: The Man and His Philosophy on CD-ROM)
Question 1
A part of our previous question remains unanswered: it is about Shree Arvind seeing visions of Krishna. You had once said at Ahmedabad that such visions are mostly nothing more than mental projections. Is it a mental projection or a real mystical experience in the case of Arvind?
Question 2
If Arjuna is just an instrument in the hands of existence, what about his individuality?
Question 3
We would like to return to Arvind seeing visions of Krishna, which you think to be a case of mental projection. In this connection we recall what you once said about the Tibetan lamas, that on a particular day of each year some competent lamas gather together and establish contact with Buddha. On another occasion you had said something about Gandhi and on being further questioned you said that you had your fact from Gandhi himself. And we have heard that till recently there were lamas in Tibet who traveled astrally from one place to another where they again appeared in their physical bodies. Will you please shed some more light on this matter?
Question 4
Can it be a case of collective auto-suggestion?
Question 5
Is there a way, apart from occultism, to know intellectually about the soul and its rebirth? In other words, can the existence of the soul and the fact of rebirth be proved philosophically without the help of a practical discipline? How is it that a bodiless spirit knows all about its previous life? Is it that only a soul that leaves its body with awareness comes to remember its past life?
Question 6
It may be a communication on the mental level, not on the level of the soul.
Question 7
To find out if there is something like a soul in man, scientists have carried out experiments by placing a dying man in a glass casket. Please say something about this experiment.
Question 8
You said that Arjuna was surrendered to Krishna, and yet he was a free individual what have you to say about Vivekananda who was similarly surrendered to Ramakrishna? Why could he not be enlightened?
