Oh, no, no, Bhagavatee vaseutee

Oh, no, Bhagvateh aa.

Come on! Oh, we were in this whole analogy.

All right, so we're reading from the from the oh we were in this whole analogy that was going on we were in this whole allegory and again the interesting thing about

Beta you know sometimes in the Bible you know there's an allegory, it's just meant to be allegorical,

is a story to illustrate a point, it's just the real thing that's happening.

Invaded text, it's very, very, very clear, when it's an allegory and when it's not an allegory, usually it says something

like, this is an allegory. And then it's not to be confused because one thing, and I think we said this the other day, is we don't say like,

okay, now we're going to read myths from ancient India.

We don't say this word myth. We don not accepting them as myth. Now you can, and I sort of like I'm not like pushing this on people who are new to this. But the way to understand these ancient teachings are not like we're like reading some myths and extracting some you know relevant information from the myths that the stories in themselves are transidental, they're otherworldly.

It's like getting a window into sort of like a magical realm,

a celestial realm.

I was the same way, I mean when I first read the Mahabarts, you know, I

approached teachers and saying, you know, what a great book. What a cool, fantastic

mythological story, you know.

You know, I understand that you take all this stuff literal.

Why should we do that shouldn't we just

imbibe some deep truths from these ancient cultures and why must everything be

taken literal and the very sweet reply I got that shut me down real quick was what do you know in a very kind way, he said, what do you actually know?
