The path of rAvaNa

The path of rAvaNa, though it may sometimes seem attractive, in the sense of being able to generate and concretize all desires through samkalpa as powerful as BrahmA, should be eschewed through jnAna vision. Even though rAvaNa managed to physically possess sItA for a while, he could not enjoy her love. Those who truly love do not try to possess. If love comes naturally to one by the will of Brahma it should be accepted and not rejected. But pursuing it as rAvaNa did, without Brahma's sanction, leads to pain. Wisdom lies in seeing that the object of desire is nothing but a projection of the Self itself. Seeking it through the outgoing senses weakens Purusha who becomes deluded by His own Power prakRti. Seeking inward the Union of Purusha and prakRti who are in truth identical leads to Eternal Bliss.
