Consciousness is defined as the state of being conscious, and that simple definition sounds so obvious but obviously it isn’t the case, as simple as it may sounds so.
Dawkins argues that there is no doubt that Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection is true and, unlike some other scholars of the subject, says belief in evolution is not compatible with faith in religion. In fact, he argues, science and religion undermine each other...

About: In this fast-paced age, the often overwhelming realities of daily life may leave you feeling uncertain about how to realize your life’s true purpose—what spiritual teachers call dharma. But yoga master Stephen Cope says that in order to have a fulfilling life you must, in fact, discover the deep purpose hidden at the very core of your self. In The Great Work of Your Life, Cope describes the process of unlocking the unique possibility harbored within every human soul. The secret, he asserts, can be found in the pages of a two-thousand-year-old spiritual classic called the Bhagavad Gita—an ancient allegory about the path to dharma told through a timeless dialogue between the fabled archer, Arjuna, and his divine mentor, Krishna...

Life came into existence because there was this great amount of “colossal chaos” during the origin of universe, and we exist today because there is greater degree of order in the world. Life is a complex product of the cycle of chaos and order of life. We cannot bring order into our life without give space for the chaos to settle down.
Well-being is most commonly used in philosophy to describe what is non-instrumentally or ultimately good for a person. The question of what well-being consists in is of independent interest, but it is of great importance in moral philosophy, especially in the case of utilitarianism, according to which the only moral requirement is that well-being be maximized...

Writing is Healing Killing the Wrong Billings of Life!!!
Writing is catharsis. Writing is transformative. Writing is reflection of our past. Writing is a projection of our imagination. Writing is thinking. Writing is creating.
Writing makes us live life richly where profound thoughts matter more than the powerful things that we possess.
Happiness is an ephemeral condition. It is rapidly fleeting. Here one moment and gone the next. One day when all is going well with your business, your bank account and your family, happiness is there. But how about when something unwanted happens? What about when something entirely outside of your control happens to disturb your happiness and harmony?...
Nihar
Happiness is omnipresent; it is everywhere, just that we find ourselves nowhere. It is an intriguing conundrum that keeps revolving between these two planks of nothingness and everything. We get wrapped up. We get knotted. This typically is a classic case of being entrapped in the paradox of life.

shri dattaswamiUniversality of God of all religions
The same unimaginable God exists as the single Actor in different roles (Avibhaktaṃ vibhakteṣu—Gita). The external medium alone changes and not the God who is common to all Human Incarnations.

The same unimaginable God exists as the single Actor in different roles (Avibhaktaṃ vibhakteṣu—Gita). The external medium alone changes and not the God who is common to all Human Incarnations. This concept establishes Universal Spirituality. It establishes that all world religions were given by God because the entire world is created and ruled by the single unimaginable God. He is called by different names such as Parabrahman, Jehovah, Allah and so on. All religions finally lead to the same God. The religions are like rivers flowing in straight or curved paths to finally merge into the same ocean. There is no need to convert to a different religion. Imagine that all houses are arranged in a circular fashion around the city center. There is a road from each house to directly reach the center.
There is no point in moving tangentially from one house to the other. Each person must move radially inwards from his or her own house towards the center. One must follow the religion in which one is born until one dies and the soul unites with the unimaginable God.
If you follow your religion without any hatred towards other religions, it is sufficient. Be assured that all religions lead to the same ultimate unimaginable God. There is absolutely no need to change your religion.
You can treat the fathers of your friends to be equal to your father and respect them as you respect your father. But you need not reject your father and call the father of your friend as your father! If you change your religion, you will adopt the external culture of the other religion too. Then, your kith and kin will revolt against that new external culture adopted by you since they are accustomed to their specific culture for a long time. Such resistance from your kith and kin will lead to your isolation. You will then feel insecure and fearful (Paradharmo bhayāvahaḥ—Gita). Instead, you can follow the culture of your own religion. You can worship the same unimaginable God existing in the form accepted by your religion. Your worship can follow the external culture of your own religion. If you do this and finally die, you will get salvation (Svadharme nidhanam śreyaḥ—Gita).
It is sufficient if you do not criticize the unimaginable God existing in a different form and following a different culture. You must realize that the same unimaginable God exists in the various divine forms which follow the specific cultures of different religions. If you have criticized Krishna, you have also criticized Jesus, Mohammad and all other Incarnations, simultaneously. Krishna, Buddha, Jesus, Mohammad and so on, might differ in their external physical forms and in their external way of dressing, but the unimaginable and omnipotent ultimate God present in them is one and the same. The same Divine Actor has appeared in all those different roles wearing different costumes. He has made His face appear different in each role, as if by plastic surgery.
ViswanathanMerging with God actually meant, realizing one is indeed the immortal soul (Atman) within the body and giving up the false belief that one is the perishable body.
That is the reason why Hindu Salvation is known as Moksha or SELF REALIZATION
Meaning REALIZING one is indeed the SELF --- the immortal soul within the body.
Lord Krishna discusses about merging with God in the Bhagavad Gita chapter 8:13.

Ravi ChandranWell, you have rightly mentioned the word oneness. GOD is the omnipresent and omnipotent . In chapter 11 of Bhagvad Geeta, Arjuna sees the whole universe in one body of LOrd Krishna.He could see Lord Brhama, Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva and all other demigods in that universal form of Lord Krishna. In Bhagvad Geeta Lord Krishna has reiterated in different contexts and connotations that HE is the ultimate source of origination of the universe and HE resides in the heart of everyone monitoring... moreWell, you have rightly mentioned the word oneness.

<br />
Arjuna sees Lord Krishna at every nook and corner be it Gujarat, be it Australia be it America. Lord manifests himself in incredible forms but the transcendental veracity is that there is one supreme GOD and surrender towards him and by dedicating every every deed of yours to Lord Krishna would open the door of the real knowledge of GOD obliterating all obscurities , misconceptions and erroneous beliefs that we have created about the GOD who is one but the human race has diversified the GOD for their comforts and convenience. <br />
<br />
To make it more pellucid, Lord Krishna is the PM of the entire cosmos and the other demi Gods are the delegated ministers who are endowed with various limited powers in order to fulfill the tenable desires of human beings but all boons granted by the demi Gods are actually ratified by the Supreme GOD because GOD also evaluates the quality of one's aspirations.
The ultimate goal of meditation and in fact, all Yoga practices, is to have a mind that is peaceful, clear, and one-pointed. One of the greatest impacts on the quality of mind is our diet...
Like to avoid diseases you should avoid bad food, similarly, swami ji is referring what to avoid for healthy spiritual growth.

If you won't avoid what is not beneficial, then why you are at first place, avoiding these words said by swami ji ? it is also part of god? why to avoid this, please accept it also?
See, the contradictory nature of your own thoughts? for this, it is said,
"Seek a learned one, for, you can advance on right path then".
"But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness." says bible.
One's own inability to give up lust or whatever not beneficial for growth is direct signal of one's own weakness propelled by attachments, which is to be worked upon.
By the way,
You should personally agree to one thing, that is to search about
Swami vivekanada and Ramakrishna Math.
Good days
One more thing,
Yes god is light but it is light devoid of 'Evil', if you say, it is light which includes evil, then you are utterly confused between "being aware about god" and "being not aware about god" concepts.
What is evil is ignorance of nature of god, what is good is knowledge of nature of god, however, you cannot say that, evil which is ignorance is also justifiable, for, then knowledge of god renders useless then, why to put spiritual efforts then?
Then, those ones, who commit murder are doing well?
Why then your bible says
"Thou shalt not Kill?"
Flawed concepts like these, that "evil is part of god" are reasons of greater disasters then natural ones trust me.
Lastly, i will leave, beautiful words of your own bible:
"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows."
God indeed is freedom, freedom to move anywhere, everywhere, it is state of liberation it is true but with flawed concepts, one cannot taste the nectar of him, one cannot, it is like trying to lick sand despite knowing water that i saw was mere mirage.
Yogi Ricky MathiesonInteresting quote. I would not agree with this personally. Evil should never be ignored or rejected. For the evil we see in others is the same darkness that is within each of us. And if we reject a part of ourselves, we cannot understand that aspect of ourselves.
Reject something and ignore it, and we make ourselves vulnerable to it.
Evil does not lead us to lust and anger. Lack of self-control leads us to lust and anger. If we accept that the things, people and energies in our environment... moreInteresting quote.

Evil does not lead us to lust and anger. Lack of self-control leads us to lust and anger. If we accept that the things, people and energies in our environment control our thoughts and actions, we give ownership of our thoughts, feelings and actions to that which we blame.
This is quite a dis-empowering state of being to accept within oneself. We should remember that God is Light, and so too is God the Darkness in the world. Both Darkness and Light exist within the Consciousness of God.
To be fully aware of God therefore, we should not reject any part of it. We should be mindfully aware of all parts of the same whole.
