Means to Victory
Dec 23rd, 2006 | By admin | Category: quotesMeaning:
Wherever there is absolute alertness, there is victory. Victory has its basics in the ‘Sattwic’ quality of intelligence.
(Source: Mundaka Upanishad 3.1.6)
The victory refers to the fulfillment of our desire. The Sattwic qualities include pure, integrated, self-referral, Yogic, Vedic, or Samhita. I am reminded of the Gandhian philosophy of non-violence, love, and compassion to get India her freedom.
UPDATE: Here is yet another interpretation…
Meaning: “Truth alone triumphs”
This is in the context of Dharma. The good will always have its victory over evil. It does not matter how much strong the evil force gets, the good will alway win over evil ultimately.
The simple meaning of satya is “truth”. But, Satya also means the ultimate reality symbolizing eternity. This is the beauty of Sanskrit language to have multiple meanings for a single word. Every word in the Holy Scripture has more than one meaning, a simple apparent meaning and a deeper, inner meaning.
