spoke on , who preceded and revived vedic learning and overwhelmed the opponents of vedic ritual in those days. They are now arranging here the serpent-like couch (). The programme called the Conquest of Three Worlds (), for which and others have been planning, will start soon. I had no idea of speaking today but since you will all be disappointed if I do not, I shall fill up the interval. The two spoke very well, because their authority for all their statements is the , nothing less. Their purpose was also praiseworthy: to elevate man through the spread of the vedic teaching. When the mind is so pure and the brain so full, the words will certainly be sweet and nourishing. It is a very difficult task to dive into the deep sea, the beginingless and the endless , and bring up such precious pearls - not because the pearls are few but because the sea is so deep. The teaches man lessons that take him beyond the ken of the three qualities (): the dull, the active, and the calm; the black, the red, and the white. The also speaks the language of symbols, and one has to be well versed in vedic vocabulary and the technique to be able to interpret it, as and do. For example, in explaining a mantra, they said that all men are children of (the Sun God). The meaning of that is: All those who have eyes to see are specially blessed by the sun, for the sun is the presiding deity of the inner and the outer vision. The mantra does not mean that all men belong to the Sun dynasty! There are seven suns and seven types of rays, and that is why you are advised to have half-closed eyes when you meditate on the form of the Lord. Then the first three rays will try to penetrate the upper eyelid and the last three the lower eyelid, but the eye will receive only the fourth ray, the fourth colour. Such subtle secrets are also hidden in the hymns to the various Gods. It is not correct to say that each vedic God represents a force of nature that is patent to man: the rain god, the thunder god, the sun god, the dawn goddess, etc. The glory and the majesty of the One God is visualised in various contexts and praised; that is all. The have far deeper meanings.
