Shibendu Lahiri Messages
 |
| Must telling yarn be? |
Below is the message of having no message, of furthering no knowledge, having no liberation method, and all by someone professing that he cares nothing for the stupid society, where those who are not wise, are in authority - Shibendu Lahiri is the one.

Telling Well Matters

Don't offer any you-are-nothing message and add liberation yarn to that.
What is telling well? Look to main results. If you tell others they
are nothings and in consequence are invited to different places to repeat it with additions, travelling and cruising the world - well, look to the results of the
speaking.
Shibendu Lahiri Messages
The willy-nilly accomplishes nothing - is it a salvaging teaching to live by?Shibendu Lahiri (1939-) is the great grandson of Lahiri Mahasaya, and spreads kriya yoga teachings that have been preserved in that blood line: Now and then Shibendu visits private persons and holds satsangas (lectures with questions and answers) and shares the teaching of kriya yoga.
When we read his, "I have no message." [Message 35 of Shibendu Lahiri online], why do we bother to read around sixty other messages from him? Why do some attend meetings where he answers questions? That beats me. - It cannot be because Shibendu represents a from-father-to-son transmission - generation after generation, and that, like his ancestors, he is a house-holder with a high university education and so on.
For he says, "I don't offer any knowledge. I don't transmit any knowledge." [Message 54] So why must anyone read his messages? Why are they online? you may well wonder. And why is there talk of his transmission line at all?
"You are nothing." [Message 24] So why bother! And why does he bother to visit nothings and hold satsanga with nothings, and so on? That beats be. How can a nothing bother about doing something? How can a nothing accomplish anything?
A few more Shibendu conundrums might do you well, but not as well as living well. (2)
He says, "Wander away from this idiotic world and be an outsider without caring for the opinions and obsessions of the stupid society." [ Message 70.] Thus, we have idiotic eating too. Note that Shibendu manages to travel and cruise in the "idiotic world". It is wandering, but not from this world, but in it. His busy travel program attests to that.
Shibendu also says (but to whom if "you are nothing?): "Do not utter God's name.
Because he is un-nameable." [Message 39] Then why did he bother to write out
Thousand Names of the Un-nameable? [Message 62-65] Because he is above logic? Why mind
reading that? (4)
You may think he teaches kriya yoga to aid liberation. But "Kriya Yoga is
not a method to become liberated!" he says clearly. [Message 34]
"No book is sacred," is a further message [Message 43] Still, Shibendu
talks a lot about the Bhagavad Gita anyway, as you can see.
Shibendu Lahiri (1939-) says the wise wields no authority and those in
authority are not wise. Since Jannuary 1988 he has been a yogacharya (yoga
teacher) on full time basis, but has no ambition to influence anybody. What he is into is to
teach deep Indian spirituality like his forefathers (without wanting to influence anybody)
[!] Might teaching without influencing really work? (6)
What you can learn from this.
