Easy to misunderstand – Ashtavakra Gita

I have to warn you – reading the next statements may shatter your faith in Advaita

Ashtavakra Gita is not for children. Even the most spiritually advanced would struggle trying to explain it

Finds no fault with himself – himself is not the personal body but refers to the vision that everything is Atman – God pure consciousness. Now comes the more ” Earth shattering” He sees it as perfect. Without fault. Now, how can you or anyone see the evil in the world as perfect? All the slavery, theft, rape, murder, children getting abused, unfairness in life, the atrocities of rulers etc. And the person of knowledge or wisdom sees it as perfect / without fault?????

Therin lies my problem with all religions. All these religions and speakers, orators, guides, and wise people, priests, etc how can they ever say that all is without blemish?

On the other hand Ashtavakra Gita is one of the highest. This is the teaching that Janak Raja ( king ) got after he had constant realization that he is pure consciousness!

So my humble request is please try to purify yourself first. Get rid of the evil in you. Your anger is the evil in you. Your selfishness is the evil in you. Your love for money is the evil in you. The lack of faith in God is the evil in you. The doubts are the evil in you. The impatience in reaching God is the evil in you. Oh the list is long

Reading my blog is a total waste of time. I have not written anything important or worthwhile. So please take your interest elsewhere. Someday I will stop.
