Understanding the Eternal Bipartite System
India, the world’s largest democracy, is poised to elect its next government. With a population exceeding 1.4 billion and 970 million eligible voters, the country is gearing up to exercise its democratic rights. But amidst a myriad of contenders, many may find themselves pondering over whom to choose.
Interestingly, India boasts a population deeply rooted in the ancient Vedic principle of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam – One World, One Family. Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, hailed as the greatest spiritual master of the modern era and a leading proponent of eternal Vedic philosophy, often shed light on the eternal bipartite system whenever questioned about his preferred political party.
According to Shri Maharaj Ji, the Vedas proclaim the existence of only three entities since time immemorial: Jiva (individual souls), Brahm (God), and maya (illusion). Excluding the individual souls, we are left with just two entities – God and maya. Thus, every individual soul has only two parties or paths to choose from: the spiritual path (God) or the material path (maya). There is no third option. Those who recognize themselves as pure souls, part of God, align with the spiritual party. Conversely, those who identify solely with their material bodies follow the material party.
The crux of the issue lies in the prevalent identity crisis among us, the majority of individuals. Lost in the labyrinth of worldly pursuits, we drift further from our true essence, trapped by the illusion of maya, leading to a perpetual state of restlessness and suffering. But, “What exactly is maya? How can one overcome its influence? Why is maya so important?” are some immediate queries that shroud our minds.
In a series of enlightening discourses, Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj uniquely reconciled the realms of spiritualism and materialism as outlined in the Vedas. By delving into these reflective teachings, readers will gain profound insights into navigating the complexities of life and finding true fulfillment.
Stay tuned as we delve deeper into Shri Maharaj Ji's teachings, exploring the path to liberation from the clutches of maya and embracing the timeless wisdom of the Vedas.
