Publisher's Synopsis
Most of the precious words of the great sage Maharshi MahaManas compiled here have been collected from the greatest doctrine of this time 'MahaVad' (Mahaism).Summary of 'MahaVad': The greatest doctrine of the time written by Maharshi MahaManas. Blind faith or superstition is one of the main causes of most of the problems in the human world. At the root of most complex humanized problems are ignorance, blindness, and physical and mental illness. Lack of adequate consciousness and lack of knowledge or ignorance are the main causes of most human suffering and problems.'ManavDharma' or basic Human religion does not only mean becoming honest and kind and compassionate, 'ManavDharma' is the innate religion of man, the fundamental religion. Religion of spontaneous self-development. We have forgotten that human religion and are obsessed with various imposed religions and iniquities.It is very difficult to express the words 'Dharma' and 'Manav Dharma' correctly in English. Yet I have tried my best. Although 'Dharma" and religion are not one thing, in the conventional sense 'Dharma' is called religion.Just as the 'Dharma' (quality) of water, the 'Dharma' of fire, so in the case of man, 'Dharma' is the religion or quality of his simple behavior or disposition. Man, through his nature, simple behavior, spontaneously acquires knowledge, experience and consciousness, progresses along the path of development of the mind and at one time attains maturation or full human being. Became a man of full developed mind. 'ManavDharma' or Human religion is the way forward for the development of human mind.In the case of imposed 'Dharma' (religion), by holding or adopting which system people can live well and develop quickly, that is 'Dharma' (religion). It is not a 'Dharma' (religion) to pursue miracles or false temptations, it is 'Adharma' unrighteous act.You are human because you have a 'Conscious Mind'. But your (conscious) mind is not yet developed enough. You have to develop this mind to become a well-developed human being. And this is your primary religious work.The development of the country and the entire human race is possible only through the development of the individual mind. The development of the country and the human race will be possible only if the right mind- development education system can be introduced for the purpose of real mental development of the people universally.The root causes of poverty are ignorance, blindness, and blind-faith which are due to lack of knowledge and consciousness with physical and mental illness.People have so many problems, sorrows and misery due to lack of sufficient consciousness. And the biggest obstacles to the development of this consciousness are religion, monarchy (now politics), and the business system. They never wanted the development of human consciousness in their own interest. Rather, they are always trying to make people ignorant and blind fools.You have born as a human being, so the first and foremost goal of your life is to become a full-fledged human being. Your main 'Dharma' (religion) is to know yourself and this worldly system and always moving forward consciously to become a real developed human being. It is not your 'Dharma' (religion) to run after an imaginary god for the sake of gaining grace or something else.We came here for a short time on an educational trip. Gaining high to higher consciousness is the underlying purpose of human life. Here we will benefit as much as we can become richer in consciousness through the experience of knowledge.
