Theory and Practice

Whichever path one follows, the thing is to follow it,not to argue about it.

A Christian priest once toldBhagavan that he considered the goal of mystic unionenvisaged by Christians to be different from the Hindugoal of moksha[liberation] and superior to it, and Bhagavan replied,"All right, attain that first and then see whether youstill find any difference or anything to criticize".

That was always his reply - to turn the critic fromtheory to practice. Argument did not interest him,only understanding and sincere effort.
