Daharma
(Darma): the very word "Daharma"
(or "Darma") means "innate nature." Any subject in this world has a
nature, even this universe itself has a nature. Also as the subjects
become more complicated, they will become multi-natured (they will
have more than one
Daharma
or Darma).
These
Daharmas should
be viewed as Laws set up for each subject to follow. If a subject
follows his or her nature, it will be in harmony with the Universal
Laws. If he or she does not follow his or her nature, disharmony
will be created which will result in confusion and unhappiness.
These natures or Darmas can be understood by deep
observation,
meditation, and
concentration. Also most of them are revealed by
God through His
Prophets (if you
understand them).
When all things follow their Darmas, then the
Kingdom Of Heaven within and without can be established.
Darkness:
ignorance, being
under the influence of the
tama guna.
Darma
:
same as
Daharma.
Devil:
crudifying
power of the tama guna
over the
Soul;
ignorance.
When the Soul is under the influence of the
tama guna, the
mind becomes crude and
will be attracted toward the desires and impulses of the lower
nature. This causes desires to arise in the
mind
("sea") and will result in being attracted to the external world (Maya,
"the
dragon"). The
result of fulfillment of desire is attachment and greed. Greed will
result in more attraction, desires, attachment, and greed. This
wheel goes on and on, so the person will be drawn more and more into
the ocean of Maya, and
more and more held by the grip of the
crudifying power of the
tama guna.
The by-product of all these things is
uncontrollable lust, anger, vanity, fear, and all the vices of human
life. This process is what is called the wheel of
Maya.
Divine:
God-like, supremely good. That is the goal of life: to be(come)
Divine (Pure
Consciousness).
Divine Actions:
those actions which make a person
Divine. All the actions taken to help the universe to reach
higher consciousness are regarded as
Divine
actions (actions done for the establishment of the Kingdom
within and without).
Divine Father:
See Father.
Divine Logic:
See Father.
Divine Mother:
same as Divine
Grace.
Dogma: what seems right! Dogma
is a set of beliefs that can be the truth, or not. It is a set
of concepts that are accepted by the followers of a religion or a
sect, which they believe to be the truth. However, usually
when it is used in our teachings it refers to the negative meaning
as a set of beliefs that are not from God but are man-made!
Dragon, The Red:
(The Revelation, chapter 12):
Maya; excess, unnecessary attraction toward the external world
(any attraction which is contrary to our spiritual progress).
