Why Do We Want to Dominate Or Be...

Jiddu Krishnamurti

"Why do we want to dominate or be subservient to another? - 20 August 1949  
• Why is it that we dominate, consciously or unconsciously? 
• To submit oneself to another is the negative form of domination. We shall not 
be able to solve this problem by thinking in terms of opposites. 
• Is not domination a process of isolation, which denies relationship? 
• Can there be relationship between two people if there is any sense of 
domination or submissiveness? 
• Q: Is not the experience of the past a help towards freedom and right action in 
the present? 
• Q: Is my believing in survival after death a hindrance to liberation through self- 
knowledge? 
• Q: Why is it certain individuals identify themselves with you or with your state 
of being and thereby gain authority for themselves?"

Ramayana of valmiki the

Valmiki Ramayana

Narrated by Matthew Schmitz of Altrusian Grace Media, this English prose version of the Ramayana is told in a story form capturing the true and authentic spirit of the original Sanskrit and which makes it easy and enjoyable to listen to. The Ramayana is one of the greatest epics of ancient literature, a monumental work that has transcended the boundaries of time and culture to become a story cherished across generations and geographies. Composed by the sage Valmiki, it is not just a tale of heroism and divine adventure, but a profound reflection on the complexities of dharma, the power of devotion, and the triumph of good over evil. Set in a world imbued with gods, demons, and the forces of nature, the Ramayana follows the journey of Lord Rama, the prince of Ayodhya, who embodies the virtues of righteousness, honor, and compassion. His exile into the forest, the abduction of his devoted wife, Sita, by the demon king Ravana, and the epic battle that ensues form the narrative’s core. Yet, within its grand scope, it is also a story of friendship, loyalty, and the resilience of the human spirit. At its heart, the Ramayana presents universal themes that resonate with readers across eras—the struggle between light and darkness, the moral dilemmas faced in the pursuit of justice, and the ultimate victory of truth. Rama’s unwavering adherence to dharma, Sita’s unparalleled faith, Hanuman’s boundless devotion, and Ravana’s tragic ambition are all rich in lessons that continue to guide and inspire. This ancient epic is more than just a chronicle of divine exploits; it is a mirror reflecting the ideals and failings of humanity. The Ramayana offers insights into values that have shaped human civilization and provides a compass for navigating the complexities of life. Its verses are steeped in poetic beauty and layered with allegorical meanings, inviting listeners not only to witness an extraordinary saga but also reflect on their own journey.
