Durante short, the acts by which the paradigm was born sopra me, or is born per any one giving birth preciso an original text like the Rg Veda, is not the written text

Those who disagreed kept silent and those who agreed, the majority, repeated my theory as participants mediante a ritual. The act of creation is silent. The text of the Rg Veda, however, as written down is only per theory of itself, an invitation to a ritual. It is not even one text, or one language, but several and can only be expressed con plural linguistic wholes. Paradigms may be tested; they leave invariant epistemologies, but they can never be taught; they are sheer creation. Theories, as short hand of possible paradigms, on the other hand, we learn mediante the classroom.

Paradigm, Theory, Ritual

It is now twenty five years since Meditations Through the Rg Veda: Four-Dimensional Man was first published durante the United States. My earlier sistema on the Rg Veda come utilizzare kik was published durante 1971 per Bangalore, India. Though the structures of the book were born during my twelve years of consecutive living mediante India, these structures did not become verso paradigm until later. The structures I refer esatto are the word things and the order of their arrangement I was embodying as I lived there, a context at per time. It was the way the sun rose or the dawn arrived, the slow-motion for the sun sicuro servizio and the sudden night; the lines of movement, of people, animals, wind or rain; the sudden appearance of forms, by the river, verso well, mediante the sky; the dissolution of familiar and unfamiliar names, con the rhythm of language, Gujarati, Sanskrit, even English or Spanish names; but above all, the new habit of listening with my eyes sicuro the movements mediante the sky, the forest, the streets, the homes; for the world, and my body, were per cabaret string plucked at every turn, con every silence , per every sight, sound, smell, touch and movement.

Hidden geometries became human flesh, unnoticed. It was verso silent world longing puro become language, but can per multiplicity of embodied languages be expressed as one? After a while it was life mediante the twilight; which was the shadow, which the real object? One has esatto gain distance, and none farthest than an American Ph. D. Nonetheless, dispite the distance, and dispite the academic language, verso new paradigm was born, mediante the Bronx, of all places. The structures I embodied gave way sicuro an experienced, embodied geometry, sustaining all the structures, texts and statements I silently learned sopra India. Of course, when I arnesi down this paradigm per writing, be it the Rg Veda or the Movimento, the actual written text was already a theory, per niente longer per paradigm, though perhaps the most accurate translation of the paradigm.

Integral Philosophy of the Rg Veda: Four Dimensional Man Meditations Through the Rg veda: Four Dimensional man was published in 1976

They are the easy ones puro repeat. Those who follow the path of creation, of embodied-vision, follow the path of the gods. The others follow the path of the fathers, the path of pro-creation, the path of ritual, as the Rg Veda indicates. One leads preciso immortality, the other onesto rebirth. On which of these two paths stands the author of the text, rsi, commentator, priest or scholar? Besides, the Rg Veda is the sruti (revelation) tradition of India. As such, it is earlier than any other claim of revelation from any of the canonical texts, from the East, Middle East or West. The paradigm of the interpreter, if it coincides with that of the Rg Veda, should also give birth to those gods that gave humans sensation, inspiration and immortality, not just life puro a priesthood that changes ritual as the mood strikes, bent on the act of per-creation for, after all, the immortality of the ritual is more important than the immortality of the soul.
