Prologue
This work is an attempt to elaborate further on a notion
introduced in our earlier book “The God Principle”, where it was stated that
Life is perfect. The book also provided a perspective on why this is so,
but did not cover detailed ground where the reader may understand this
better.
The book also said that for human beings the world appears imperfect
and plagued with ills, and that this view is only ‘human’. From higher
perspectives one may actually begin to see quite differently - where all
the ills, troubles, evils and so forth appear in quite a different
light.
Before the reader jumps to any conclusions, let us also state that a
higher perspective does not invalidate everyday realities. Rather it
provides meaning and context to those realities. Indeed, we will
categorically point out the paramount importance of human striving, and assert that true individual progress is impossible without also striving for the progress of one’s brethren. ‘The law of striving’
is something that is fundamentally inherent in manifestation. We do not
intend to negate any of the work of the various groups who are
actively working for humanity, for we fully and whole-heartedly
encourage them further on. In fact we would also point out that enough is not being done. These might appear contradictory but the reader will find why they are not, in further pages.
Also, this is not a new perspective. The Upanishads, Swami Vivekananda, Lao Tzu and others have expressed more or less the
same sentiment as the title of this blog, though detailed explanations
on those view points have been generally lacking.
It is the task of this writing to help the reader explore these
perspectives. We will take a while to get there, exploring various ideas
and discussing some uncommon perspectives, till we can finally tackle
this perspective fully.
