- synopsis
- (Translated as in Krishna: The Man and His Philosophy on CD-ROM)
- Question 1
- Yajnas or rituals have an important place in spiritual discipline, and there are many forms of yajnas or sacrificial rituals mentioned in the scriptures. But the Geeta attaches special importance to japa-yajna and jnana-yajna -- the rituals of chanting and knowledge. Talking about the significance of japa or chanting, you mentioned ajapa or wordless chanting. So please explain to us the significance of japa-yajna, jnana-yajna and ajapa as envisioned by the Geeta.
- Question 2
- Krishna says a man of wisdom, who gives up attachment to the fruit of action, is released from the bondage of birth and death and becomes one with the ultimate. How is it that Krishna believes that life is a bondage? You don't believe so, you say this very life is freedom, this very world the nirvana. Please explain.
- Question 3
- You have said that a man is sixty percent male and forty percent female, and a woman is sixty percent female and forty percent male. In case the ratio is altered and equalized, do you think male and female energies will neutralize and sterilize each other? And how is it God has been called Ardhanarishwara, half man and half woman?
- Question 4
- Why do Jaina scriptures say that there is no liberation for women?
