First Teaching—The Supreme Teaching
Commentary: The teaching presented is called the Supreme Teaching, for if this lesson is ignored, seekers will remain in the Forest of Errors bound by their ignorance. Here, ignorance is not meant to refer to a lack of information. Rather it relates to the human tendency to accept the unproven speculations of friends and authorities regarding Creation and Liberation. Such acceptance and closed-mindedness the leading cause of much unnecessary pain and suffering in our world.
[Father] Children of my joy, here is the first teaching. Listen and heed it well.
In the beginning, the tribes of men could not understand each other as languages were many.
Men were in perpetual conflict over land and women.
So, Lord Krishna, calling upon His Bhagavats to goeth forth, gathering all tribes of humanity, and settling the many as one on the plane of Kurukshetra, making sure each group had the land, and the women needed.
Our Lord gave to each group a Bhagavat learned in their language. Using such intermediaries, our Beloved instructed all the adult males and females to work together in unity to build a great stupa to heaven. Such stupa was to contain one window
for each adult man and woman.
As the tower grew in height, so did the comradery of the builders. And as our Lord commanded, so the people did.
One day, the tower was high enough, and the Lord commanded the Bhagavats to situate each man and woman behind a window fit to gaze upon the plain below, a plain stretching far beyond imagination.
And then, our Beloved Lord commanded the Bhagavats to write upon clay tablets what each person saw, gazing out his or her window. After this task was accomplished,
the people left the stupa, returning to the plain.
The Lord commanded that the clay tablets remain within the stupa, for it was a grand library.
Then Lord Krishna commanded the Bhagavats to proclaim to each group, “Children, by nature, you speak different languages and have different customs, and so you fight with each other. Our Lord commanded you to build this great library, and you did as told.
If someday, you choose to come together as one grand family to be with your Lord, then go into the library and read the many clay tablets residing within. By reading and contemplation, you see that each person’s view of the plain of Kurukshetra was mainly an illusion, but all possessed a ray of truth.
If you read and contemplate, your minds will remove what is false and keep what is true; then you understand the Lord’s plan and wishes. You shall all speak one language, the language of the enlightened heart.
Explanation: The library’s accurate tale at Kurukshetra moves us beyond the ‘the law of the excluded middle’ and into a more user-friendly logic system consistent with the operational rules of neuronal circuits of the brain. In the neuronal-based system, both linear causality and God is finite, and associative causality permitted, i.e.,
God is finite,
God is infinite.
God is both finite and not finite,
God is neither finite nor not finite.
Comes X comes Y,
Goes X goes Y,
With X is Y,
Without X is without Y.
In modern terms, the Library at Kurukshetra represents a typical human central nervous system’s signal-averaging capacity to process ongoing data to eliminate random noise or error. A realized human being is as Brahman, identity-in-difference. What is Divine will understand the Divine.
The ‘take-home message’ is that no one truly understands how the Unborn manifests to create a universe. Are there just forces and energies, or do divine beings exist, is there an afterlife, who reincarnates, and so on? Your sole hope to study as much metaphysics as you can, not believing, but with discursive thought, experiment with meditations of all persuasions, and learn how to sort simple misperception from falsehood. Signal averaging is your best plan. God is wise, I would say!
