what is the most honored way of living?
if one is a king or a popper
there is no better way to live than
within detachment and the heart
this is what makes of a life that
is to be sturdy and true in nature
like King Janaka -
he lived a royal life surrounded
by magnificient objects and
had all that money could buy
yet he ruled in a detached way
and came to be known as one
that is liberated and still within
worldly life...
by this type of ruling or carrying
out his deeds there was a compassion
and equal-mindedness that came
forward which served humanity
in the best possible way...
King Janaka was a *deep seer*
he did not pay attention to the
wealthy conditions in which he lived
instead he penetrated the layers of mind
and eventually was able to discern the
false (the transient)
from the true (the unchanging)
and by this strong discrimination gained
liberation
King Janaka's life is an example of living most
honorably
and it is these types of fine examples
that are to be followed within life
if one is sincere in the search towards
liberation...
maha shanti om
