Understanding Through Various Masters

If I am supposed to suggest the names of Masters to a person of normal intelligence for his search of self or so called spiritual search, I will suggest the name of OSHO, Raman Maharshi, Nisargadatta Maharaj, Kiranji and U.G. Krishnamurti.



However there is no basic difference among the purport of sayings all the Masters, but difficult to understand this similarities for a normal person.

The difference is of presentation only which depends upon the data and software of the Master concerned.

Step by step (scientific way) is must so long as even a slight spark of ego is present there.

Following are the steps which should be adopted:


1. OSHO- His understanding includes everyone's else. For basic understanding of what is in and around. To understand the things logically with evidence. He is the base of the pyramid of understanding. His discourses are too many; hence be aware of not getting lost as you will start enjoying and there is no end. The basic purpose will be lost if you are not highly intelligent. Once you have traveled through Osho literatures understanding the other Masters will be very easy.


2. Raman Maharshi- He cuts short the logical interpretation and stresses upon the Gyan Marg/Path. His sayings are limited (compared to Osho) but great and to the point. Very polite and intense grace is available.


3. Nisargadatta Maharaj- He provoke you so much that you feel to start search on your own without anyone's help. He crushes all your questions not by replying to your questions, but questioning you in such a way that you forget about your question itself. He makes you realise that you don't have genuine seeking, just superficial. Once you know that you can start on your own. His sayings are even less than Ramana.


4. Kiranji- A OSHO's disciple for 15 years, but quite different from Osho in the way of presentation. He does not give you any concepts, story, hope, etc. to make you understand. He is totally clear in his saying like Astavakra. His sayings are even less than Nisargadatta Maharaj.


5. U.G.Krishnamurthi- He is the ultimate in the sense that he makes you totally helpless and hopeless. You can understand him only after you have understood all other four mentioned above, otherwise you will feel very much frustrated and confused. Don't opt for reading UG directly if you are not mature enough. Everyone cannot face UG.


Not: The above names should not be taken literally. They represent different way of presentation of the truth which is said to be inexpressible. They all invite you to explore. The above is purely my opinion, not to hurt anyone.
