________________ 64/Meditation and Enlightenment : Chandr Prabh strong, there the satan is scarce. The satan is there where a person is weak. 'Mar' is just there. The weaker a person, the more influenced he will be by ‘Mar'. Only those are suffering from sex-diseases and AIDS who are weak. He who bas known his strength and sources of his strength, his mind would never be shaken by mind. AIDS is weakness. Weakness will be promoted in the company of the weak; strength will brighten up in the company of the strong. Just make a piece of glass face the sun, electricity will be produced even in that. If you focus its rays on the eyes of some other person, he will become blind in a moment. In fact, 'Yoga' is the name of becoming strong. Becoming strong is becoming restrained from all sides, and a life full of restrain is the biggest achievement of existence. The manliness of the weak is to fight against darkness. Whatever is seen by him is tantamount to a blind man's seeing. What an irony is this that a blind person can see distant things in the darkness. When this mind is moved by 'Ram’, then it is certain that 'Mar' has become lustreless in front of him. 'Mar' can sound a little in front of 'Ram’. Both 'Ram' and 'Mar' are the smells of life. But 'Ram' is the fragrance of life, whereas 'Mar' is the odour of life. 'Mar' over powers ore who is weak. The conscience of the weak remains buddled up under the blanket of ‘Mar'. A strong man is a yogi, and yoga is the name of becoming strong. Therefore, don't ever think that women are foul, or they are the entrances to hell. This mistake is being committed for centuries gone-by. Man did not recognise his own weakness, and therefore he considered women to be obstacles in attaining salvation. This mistake of the men folk, did immense good to the womenfolk. Whether it was a sage or a scripture, whoever dared to say so, did not recognise human weakness. It is an unpardonable crime towards the womenfclk. For salvation, or for 'Sadhana' (seeking the real truth) neither the man nor the woman becomes an obstacle A sadhaka (seeker) is the weakness of himself, powerlessness of Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.orgPage Navigation
