O SPIRITUAL ONE, PRACTISE DISCRETION !


O SPIRITUAL ONE, PRACTISE DISCRETION !

Do not somehow seek self-publicity by posting your own videos in groups that are not meant for such. If discretion be not there, what is left of your professed spirituality? If good sense prevails, this post will make its mark. If it does not, the miserable posts will carry on, adding to my administrator's misery.
Discrimination is the sign of the spiritual. Whither has discrimination and its well-born offspring, discretion, vanished? See, even Swamiji in the appended photograph has chosen to go black and white, seeing the sinking of the saffron.

P.S. This post has been made after years of enduring indiscriminate posts on Ramakrishna-Vivekananda even in groups meant for sports, science or spirituality with a well-defined scope in the 'About' section. In consequence such posts have to be continuously deleted which consumes considerable time on the part of the administrator. But inertia has its way ever and the posts continue till such persons have to be excluded from the group for sanity to prevail at last. And then there are some devotees who take it upon themselves to post these videos on behalf of the venerable authors of these. One wonders, why? What to do with them? Might as well go to the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore and seek to study Sanskrit there !
