De: Anuradha Gajaraj-Lopez

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

These discourses are drawn from the sacred text of 'Agasthiyar Vazhipaadu' where Sage Agastya reveals the truth about Creation and walks us through 'time' itself, as he lovingly lays bare the world as it is now, and what must be done to change the way we live.
In a series of practical down to earth explanations, Sage Agastya lays bare deeper meanings of different aspects of life. Questions such as, why is there an increase in population? Why some die at birth? Is rebirth necessary? What is that we must do to change ourselves, and thus, walk on the path to liberation? are all answered in these simple, yet profound discourses.
Giving examples that only such a great Sage can give, he shows us how to face challenges, and how to discern between right and wrong. And in doing so, to ultimately, understand the very purpose of life!
What one has seen is life. What one gains from the things he has seen is happiness. What the five senses have seen and understood is the truth - This is how man thinks in the small fortress he builds for himself in earthly life. The ability for man to think about what is outside his small fortress is lessening. Very few have the opportunity to ponder on the important questions like, “where have I come from? why was I born? what path must I follow? where should I reach at the end?
The answers to all these questions lie in these discourses for those blessed individuals that it is meant to reach.
