Staying in this world, whichever way you look at it, you cannot understand, because you are bound by time and space. When there is no time and space there are no physical quantities. This world, as you understand it today, as you see it today, as you experience it today, is a complete falsehood. It seems to be there, but it is not really there. It just seems to be there, including yourself, just seem to be there. Now the whole struggle is to see that it is just nonsense. The whole thing is just an illusion. What it means by ‘maya’ is just this. It just seems to be there. Today your physics is proving it beyond any doubt that there is no such thing as matter in existence. Everything is relative. It just seems to be there but not there. But it is so real, isn’t it? It seems very real. Who is going to believe this story that it is not there? It is there, very much there. The whole existence, the many forms of creation, can you say it is not there? It is very much there. It is there only as long as the intellect is there. The moment you dissolve your intellect, everything dissolves into one.

Date: 3 December 2019 Student number: u12083802 __________________________ 2 Foreword I started my MTh and was unsure of a topic to cover. I knew that Hinduism was the religion I was interested in. Dr. Sukdaven suggested that I embark on the study of the concept of Maya. Although this concept provided a challenge for me and my faith, I wish to thank Dr. Sukdaven for giving me the opportunity to cover such a deep philosophical concept in Hinduism. This concept Maya is deeper than one expects and has broaden and enlightened my mind. Even though this was a difficult theme to cover it did however, give me a clearer understanding of how the world is seen in Hinduism. 3 List of Abbreviations AD Anno Domini BC Before Christ BCE Before Common Era BS Brahmasutra Upanishad BSB Brahmasutra Upanishad with commentary of Sankara BU Brhadaranyaka Upanishad with commentary of Sankara CE Common Era EW Emperical World GB Gitabhasya of Shankara GK Gaudapada Karikas Rg Rig Veda SBH Sribhasya of Ramanuja Svet.

  • I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou

We knew only that they were different, to be feared, and in that fear was included the hostility of the powerless against the powerful, the poor against the rich, the worker against the employer; and the poorly dressed against the well dressed. This is Stamps, a small town in Arkansas, in the United States, in the 1930s. The population is almost evenly divided between black and white and totally divided by where and how they live. As Maya Angelou says, there is very little contact between the two races. Their houses are in different parts of town and they go to different schools, colleges, stores, and places of entertainment. When they travel, they sit in separate parts of buses and trains. After the American Civil War (1861—65), slavery was ended in the defeated Southern states, and many changes were made by the national government to give black people more rights.

Ideal example of Dhriti is Shri Ram Root “Dhri” Finish what you start – unwavering commitment to the goal/cause; undaunted, focused, clarity; FORTITUDE Sustaining Power: ONLY Vishnu can sustain; Maintenance (house) requires resources to enhance, preserve and protect (Saraswati, Lakshmi and Shakti) Strength --- only the resourceful can sustain! 4 Kshama – Forgiveness A person who forgives others creates no enemies and adversaries. Sign of stable mind, peaceful heart, and awakened soul. An ideal example of forgiveness is Swami Dayanand. Only the strong can forgive “meaningfully” Only the one who is focused on the larger good, a larger goal, who is unmoved by small disturbances can forget and forgive Kshama implies strength, resourcefulness and commitment to a larger cause Only those who do not feel violated, who have plenty (abundance), have wisdom and vision can see the bigger picture (Vyas, Vishnu & Bhrigu ...) 5 Damah- Control over Mind and Desires It is not possible to overcome wickedness with thoughtless, vengeful approach A person with “damah” quality remains attuned to the noble urges of his self and protects it from ignoble thoughts and rogue desires.

  • Maya Civilization Was Much Vaster Than Known, Thousands of Newly Discovered Structures Reveal
    The Washington Post Speaking of Science Maya civilization was much vaster than known, thousands of newly discovered structures reveal By Cleve R. Wootson Jr. February 3 Archaeologists have spent more than a century traipsing through the Guatemalan jungle, Indiana Jones-style, searching through dense vegetation to learn what they could about the Maya civilization that was one of the dominant societies in Mesoamerica for centuries. But the latest discovery — one archaeologists are calling a “game changer” — didn't even require a can of bug spray. Scientists using high-tech, airplane-based lidar mapping tools have discovered tens of thousands of structures constructed by the Maya: defense works, houses, buildings, industrial-size agricultural fields, even new pyramids. The findings, announced Thursday, are already reshaping long-held views about the size and scope of the Maya civilization. “This world, which was lost to this jungle, is all of a sudden revealed in the data,” said Albert Yu-Min Lin, an engineer and National Geographic explorer who worked on a television special about the new find. “And what you thought was this massively understood, studied civilization is all of a sudden brand new again,” he told the New York Times Thomas Garrison, an archaeologist at Ithaca College who led the project, called it monumental: “This is a game changer,” he told NPR. It changes “the base level at which we do Maya archaeology.” The findings were announced by Guatemala's Fundación Patrimonio Cultural y Natural Maya (Mayan Heritage and Nature Foundation), also known as PACUNAM, which has been working with the lidar system alongside a group of European and U.S.
