Go beyond the Vedas means
thinking beyond the scriptures. Thinking beyond the scriptures means thinking
beyond religion.
Thinking beyond religion means getting rid of ignorance.
Getting rid of ignorance is the end of Vedas. That is Veda –antha.
When one goes into the annals
of history it looks like the true Advaita expounded by Sage Sankara and Sage Goudpada was lost or mutilated by the
orthodoxy because the orthodox preaching and practice are dualistic and they do
not match with Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom.
It is necessary for the seeker
to do his homework, and verify the validity of all the claims, rather than
blindly believe, what others expound as knowledge, till; the un-contradicted
truth is obtained.
The seeker must have the courage of Bhagavan Buddha to accept the truth and
reject the untruth. Since Bhagavan Buddha rejected religion, the idea
of God and scriptures, therefore, it is evident that he has gone through every
aspect and verified and found them to be inadequate and useless for the pursuit
of truth.
Even Buddhism is mixed up
with regional culture and traditions of the local religion, wherever it
existed. Thus, to get the full essence of Bhagavan Buddha's wisdom
is very difficult.
The scriptures are for the
ignorant masses, who wholly accept the material world as it presents itself.
Wisdom is for those who have begun to realize that things are not what they
seem. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
