dattaswami Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Nivrutti is the subject of realization of God as ultimate The difference between Bhagavatam and Bharatam is the difference between nivrutti and pravrutti. Nivrutti is the subject of realization of God as ultimate with highest value. Pravrutti is the subject of the realization of ethics (justice) as ultimate with highest value. Pravrutti is true as long as God does not enter. When there is a competition between God and ethics, God should be voted against ethics. God is the protector of ethics and not reverse. If this truth is understood, in pravrutti itself, the real background of pravrutti is realized. Then, nivrutti is very easy and will not contradict pravrutti. If you have not realized the true background of pravrutti, nivrutti is also not understood. Therefore, Gita says that ignorant people do not understand both pravrutti and nivrutti. It means that if either is not understood, the other is misunderstood. However, nivrutti should not be misinterpreted and misused. Thinking that a cheat is God, ethics should not be violated. You have to confirm the human form of God and should not violate the ethics misunderstanding an ordinary human being as God. You should not tell a lie based on the advice of an ordinary human being. www.universal-spirituality.org Universal Spirituality for World Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
