Swamiji, your image seems to shift between male and female. why?
(0.12) Can I ask Why your Image varies from being a male personal when you are speaking to us and then a female personal when you are not speaking to us?
(0:24) An Enlightened being cannot be constrained into, first of all one body, forget about constraining me into one gender. In Vedic tradition, we call Enlightened beings as Transcendental Gender not Transgender. Transcendental gender, neither male nor female or gay or lesbian or transgender. It’s a separate kind of a body. We call it Divya Sareera which reflects the way you want to see, you will go on be seeing it. The way you want to perceive, you will be perceiving it, the way you want to enjoy, you will be enjoying it. So it is... even in language... words... Sanskrit gives exemption from all the grammar, rules, everything to enlightened beings.
(1:46) The Sanskrit Grammarian, he says Enlightened beings are expressing, trying to express something, trying to express something which can never be expressed through words, so they are exempted from all grammar, rules, everything. It is called “Arsha prayoga”. Whenever a Rishi uses the language for his own convenience, the way he wants and the way he interprets, it is accepted as a trend and grammar rule and it is called “Arsha prayoga”. He is not bound by the linguistic rules, grammar rules, same way an enlightened being cannot be constrained even to one body, with so much of difficulty when he is trying to express through one body, you can never be able to constrain him to one gender. Whether Psychology or Physiology or the whole system, the body I carry, nothing can be framed into one gender. Actually the enlightenment itself is a physiological, psychological mutation. So that is why, if you are a keen observer, means, if you are a living, observing, witnessing personality, then you can understand the form I am carrying is beyond the genders. Noosa, I think you are, the Noosa Australia person, Ian Anderson, I think your ability to absorb or observe is too much that’s all I can say. (3:51)
