RE: [mukto-mona] Prof. Kamal Das

WRT: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mukto-mona/message/50183


The aroma of India's
spiritual and philosophical qualities was known to the far flung lands on earth
during the antiquity. Perhaps this was the reason why Romaine Rolland once said;
Only a sage can understand India.
Although Krishna was also a deity in ancient Egypt
and Greece but
the Indian romantic mysticism has bestowed its best on Krishna.
The beautiful premise that, ekoker shathey ditiar milon na holey leela hoi na, aar
leela na holey atmoupalabdhi hoi na, aar atmoupalabdhi na holey mukti hoi na. I
could not translate this into English because it will not carry the real
meaning. This unique brew of philosophical spiritualism is a pure Indian
product.

The Upanishads have long interested students of philosophy
in the West. The English philosopher Hume translated some of them into English
in the eighteenth century. Later he travelled to America
where he taught Sanskrit to Thomas Jefferson and together they studied the
Upanishads in their original form. Almost all the prominent western
philosophers, especially Max Muller were absorbed by the beauty of the Upanishads.
