Success is the accomplishment of one's aim. To decide what is the ultimate success we have to know what is that which endures success for the longest time. As a comparison let us take the ultimate entity of advaita which is nirguna brahman. It is in a state of perfect bliss and is in that state forever, that is an ideal state lasting forever. That is the ultimate in success. That should be the yardstick on which success should be measured.

Dear Sravna,

In a state of Nirguna Brahman...there is no knower..there is no known too and this state is unknowable.

So who is present to measure anything and label it ultimate success?

I feel it is the ultimate failure to think that Nirguna Brahman can be used as a yardstick.

Who is measuring??

No Renuka, what I mean is, an enduring desirable state should define success.

Sravna..Nirguna Brahman is an Unknowable Experience..to call it a state too is not very accurate in my opinion becos a state is definable.

Yesterday I was having a conversation with a 14 year old who told me that he feels that God does not have the innate capability to create or destroy anything and what we see is just a modification of that which was always present.

Ok..this was his explanation..An entity that is capable to create or destroy should also be subjected to being created or destroyed and since till today no one knows what or who created God that only shows that God was always present and not subject to creation or destruction and neither does God create or destroy and all that is seen by us is a modification of the ever present state.

Well I think I had to agree that theory made a lot of sense!

One should be very respectful, very humble & almostfearful of what tomorrow can bring… and of course pray as always…

I agree with the gist of what JK had written in the quoted link...

A humble, healthy and modest life style is what is required. But have no fear, just be cautious.
