Solution to previous puzzle

Solution to yesterday’s Sudoku

At times, there may be a discussion about whether people are born as a result of their past deeds or, after being born, they undertake various deeds. It is like “Bhijankura Nyaya”. Bhija refers to seeds and ankura means sprouts. It cannot be said whether sprouts came from seeds rst or vice-versa.

Valayapett­ai Sri Ramacharia­r said in a discourse that a person whose mind is steadfastl­y set on the realisatio­n of self and undeluded by the body consciousn­ess would neither rejoice the pleasure nor grieve the grief. He whose mind is engaged in the contemplat­ion of “Brahman” will enjoy undecaying bliss.

For those pleasures that are born of contact are wombs of pain. Five blemishes (doshas) may emerge in the process of enjoyment through worldly contacts: Aarjana dosha — people undergo untold suˆering to earn money. Rakshana dosha — encounter with various di‰culties to protect and save the hard-earned money. Kshaya dosha — the wealth earned is not permanent and is perishable or destructib­le. People may constantly fear their wealth will go oˆ them. Bhoga dosha, the more we experience material comforts, the more the urge and desire grow in us. Himsa dosha — it refers to causing trouble to others while we try to obtain the means to enjoy our comforts.
