4. noble truths (s primerjavo z bhakti-hindujci)
We are working under the force of our karma (aktivnosti). The seeds we have sown, we are reaping the fruits, and we are working accordingly. Karma means we are working out of necessity born of material identification (poistovecamo se s telesom/umom). When we identify with matter, for example, this body, that gives birth to a necessity. What is that necessity? I have to struggle to live, because this body won't endure. When I identify with it, when I see it as myself, necessity is born, and I have to labor. You have to eat to live, you have to work, and we are threatened with nonexistence, in terms of bodily identification, at very moment (smrt). We are haunted by misidentfication with matter and we have to struggle hard on acount of that. And in the course of our labor, we're sowing seeds, and the fruits will come later, and we'll be bound up life after life under the influence of this karma. So we will think, let me be free from karma and that forced movement. I will be peaceful. I will rest. If we stop the mind and get off, so to speak, like the Buddhists tell us, stop the mind and be peaceful, stop thinking that you are ("nisem", anaatman), then you won't have a problem. This is the Buddhist advocacy. Four noble truths. First noble truth is dukha (trpljenje). Jiva Gosvami (bhakti-hindujc) agrees. The world is about suffering. Second noble truth, trsna (pozeljenje), we agree. It means thirst, desire born of material identification.That is a problem. That is keeping me in the experience of dukha, of misery. What is the third truth? Nirvana (osvoboditev). Because Buddhism says, ultimately, that consciousness is empty, it doesn't exist, Jiva Gosvami says, to qualify that, brahmanirvana (budisti recejo "praznina", hindujci recejo spirit, trancendent, brahman). Because Vedanta (zakljucek in esenca Ved) says there is consciousness, and you are that, a unit of that (tko kot je povdarju sankaracarya), Jiva Goswami says brahmanirvana, and beyond. And the fourth noble truth of the Buddha is the eightfold path, right action, right living and so forth. Jiva Gosvami would say, the fourth noble truth is the path (praksa, proces) of entering into brahmanirvana, which is the bhakti path, the school of devotion (bhakti-yoga). What is the difference between bhakti and the Buddhist ideal? The difference, in regard to the third and fourth truth, is how we arrive at brahmanirvana.
Jiva Goswami is saying, "ultimate reality" is not merely the cessation of material suffering. It's not just stopping the wheel of samsara, and going 'ahh', and calling that joy. Relief, 'ahh'. If someone is chasing you down the street, and to get away from them you run into a room and close the door and go 'ahh, what a relief'. But after a while of sitting in that room, you'll get bored. Forever, can you sit in that room alone? We want to do something. So, how can we do something that is not born out of necessity from material identification, but born out of what we are (soul, dusa)? This is the idea of lila (sport, proslavljanje). Karma means we are working out of necessity born of material identification and it is a struggle. And lila means we are acting because of what we are (ko ze ugotovimo kdo smo, bodisi "nematerialni, praznina" ali spirit). And what we are is a unit of joy. And when a unit of joy meets joy personified (bog), that is the idea of lila (sport) and of Radha Krishna (Absolutna resnica). se prav ce se zmotno poistovecamo s stvarmi ki nismo, potem trpimo. ko pa ze ugotovimo kaj smo, takrat se nase gibanje, oblika, ime itd. ne konca, ampak se nadaljuje, vendar v drgacnem okolju (spiritualnem) kot ga mi zdej tukile vidmo, ki je samo iluzija (materialnem). ta materialno okolje je sam reflekcija spiritualnega.
samo z resnim spiritualnim prakticiranjem se da dosezt in realizirat kar je gor napisan. da pa res obstaja to, loh pa cist logicno do tega pridemo z vsakdanjimi izkusnjami in opazovanji (mam en angleski text, sam je kr dolg, a ga postam v vecih postih?)
