I have read that Time magazine asked Charles Lindbergh,the famous aviator,his views regarding the future of space exploration which had then just got under way, both by USA and the USSR. He replied that he was confident that Man will land on Moon and will also travel to Mars in the foreseable future. But,the more important journey,according to him was not into outer space but into inner space. He said that Man had not even started on that journey. Actually both in the west and the east, many had travelled that way,some the full distance, some part of the way. Many had described the journey and also prepared the road maps. This was in the philosophic and religious domains. Nowadays it is said that even Neuroscience had made great strides in its studies of the brain. So,Man is journeying into inner space from two separate directions. What are your views reg.i) whether our inward journey is more important than the the space exploration? And more resources need to be diverted towards the inward journey? ii) which is the more promising of the two directions of the inward journey? iii) what are the benefits to us as a race of the inward journey,if any?

Even with the knowledge that they cannot go far and not for very long, still they will steal those dollars in the name of progress to satisfy their curiosity.
They have told us they have got rocks from the moon but they still want to go back into space and give us more rocks. ( we don't want any-more rocks)
That expensive space travel makes then very expensive rocks.
What they are actually doing is trying to make sense of life and the universe but they are doing it all wrong.
Everything they need to know will be found in the Vedas but they reject the Vedas because they do not want to share truth with anyone or anything and want to establish themselves as finders of the truth and keepers of the truth..
They want to spend trillions of dollars to get the truth for themselves but the truth is not out there...........but within.
Every honest person knows the truth is within as confirmed by the Vedas and to contact the within-ness the Vedas have the process.
Not happy taking instruction from the authority of the Veda they go into space and give us rocks.
They have rocks on the brain and because of dishonesty they continue to look outwards instead of inwards.
This is all simply cheating because the authority is there (the Vedas) but they have set themselves up as the false authority and give us nothing.
They are simply fools and rascals. and they are so proud of their learning they give each other certificates (Phd,s) in foolishness and falsity telling us that life comes from a muddy puddle.

You're sat at a computer somewhere in Brisbane polluting this forum with your 'one dimensional' diatribe and as usual you have no idea what you're talking about. What do you think drove the technology that enables you to have instantaneous conversations with people around the world?

What resources do you or I need to make what you call an 'inward journey'?

Every deed done, thoughts thought and words spoken creates our reality.
So thinking correctly will produce a reality of peace, harmony, happiness and more importantly love for god.
When the person comes to the platform of love of God after thinking properly they are able to return back home to Godhead.
Therefore the resources necessary for the inward journey are true knowledge, an effective process for applying that knowledge and an honest disposition to recognize true knowledge.

Originally posted by rvsakhadeoCharles Lindbergh died in 1974. It's now 2011. Doesn't that mess up your attempted metaphor somewhat?
Charles Lindbergh [said] he was confident that Man will land on Moon and will also travel to Mars in the foreseable future. But,the more important journey,according to him was not into outer space but into inner space. He said that Man had not even started on that journey.
Originally posted by FMFNot on the scale of space programmes,surely. And while there could be some govt. investment in Neuroscience studies,the investments in studies of Meditation may be negligible. Is discovering water in one of the moons of Saturn more of immediate relevance or study of human brain/mind? I think the Star Trek type journeys into the depths of space will not be of any practical significance unless the humans have a full knowledge and control of their minds/brains.

Originally posted by rvsakhadeoIt's not necessarily an either/or dilemma, is it? Do you have some evidence that it is? You should advocate for increased investments in studies of meditation if you think that's a good thing. Are you claiming that the only achievement of space exploration has been discovering water in one of the moons of Saturn? Sounds like you're trying to slip a straw man in with that quip.
