There is a
basic difference between the static philosophy and moving philosophy, static
God and moving God, static science and moving science, static tradition and moving
tradition. Basavanna says, “There is
destruction for what stands but not for that, which moves”.
Whenever
nature gives birth to new wonders in the world, be it in science, religion,
tradition, or in something else it represents a moving character. Nevertheless,
this moving character will not last for a long time because of our own static
way of thinking. Whenever new research emerged in the history of humanity, it
has maintained moving character in the beginning, but slowly it has lost the
beauty of the moving character because of the orthodox interaction of our own
finite mind. Nevertheless, the transformation of moving character to static
character occurs only in human mind, not in nature.
In the
western world, now there is a spiritual madness to dig out all the static
philosophies of the ancient history. Some are talking on Tantra,
some are talking on Yoga, some are talking on Vastu,
some are talking on mediation and some are talking on UFO’s and so on. In fact,
they are searching for the static shelter to compensate or to define their own
lethargic way of life. Nevertheless, our ancient Sages, Buddha,
Vivekananda says, “Faith is not a belief; it is the grasp of the ultimate as
illumination”.
