CHAPTER 1 ( ARJUNA VISHAADAYOGAMU)
PREFACE
The divine conversation between Bhagavan Srikrishna & Arjuna is Shrimad Bhagavadgeeta
simply called Gita. This was kindly given to the humanity by the Great
illumined Sage Vedavyasa. The essence of 4 vedasa, 108 Upanishaths and 6
systems of learning Veda together
constitute Gita
Gita is unique Model
representative of all faiths.
Sankhya, Yoga, Nyaya,
Vaiseshika, Meemaasa, and Vedantha
branches of learning, Saaktha,
Faiths of Saiva, Ganapatya, Vaishnava, Principles & procedures of all world Religions, Modern Science will get answers & solace
in Gita.
The main principles
of Starting, System, Strategy & Structure will also find place in Gita.
Gita is translated into almost all languages of the world.
Gita is
eternal. The ideals and bare truths of Gita are well appreciable and applicable
to all times, present, past & Future.
The essence of Vedasa
are Upanishads. The essence of Upanishads is the wishing tree Gita. Gita is the epitome of
everything. Gita is the funeral of all
sorrows.
Eesa kena katha
prasna maandookya tittiri
Aitareyam cha
chaandogyam bruhadaaranyakam tathaa
Eesa kena katha
prasna monadakopanishad maandookya tittareeyam aitareyam chaandogyam and bruhadaaranyakam are ten
important Upanishads.
Ten Upanishads, Gita,
and Brahmasutras together are called Prasthaanthrayam.
After reading and
practicing Gita theology, man will gradually undoubtedly shed his demonish,
animal, human and divine traits or qualities and will illumine to be merged
into God the father.
Gita is gigantic
Yagna or Sacrifice.
In this Yagna, Fire
place is Arjuna, matter that is to be sacrificed and put into that Fire place
is Message of Gita, Hota or the taker is SriKrishna and the result is
liberation from the bondage.
Gita Message starts
with Asochyaananvasochastwam and ends with Maasuchah. That is it starts with
‘You are wailing about undeserved ones’ and ends with ‘’don’t wail’.
The eradication of
Sorrow and getting Happiness is the soul aim & ideal of Gita. .
Birth of Gita
Gita was born at the
end of Dwapara Yuga.38 years before the
advent of Kali Yuga on Margasira Suddha Ekaadasi.
At the time of
preaching Gita Shri Krishna was 87 years old.
The total life span of Shri Krishna was 125
years 7months and 30 ghadiyaas.
For our understading,
let us call Sat in the above diagram as an effulgent lamp shedding its rays.
Sat means the only Potential one.
Some rays of
the lamp Sat only are passing through the transparent glass prism, Maya.
The rays in the prism are called ‘Tat’ or Shri Krishna Consciousness. Some rays of Sat shall pass through Tat, the
glass prism. Some will not pass through.
So, Sat is in the glass prism as well as beyond this. The existance of
Sat is independent where as the existance of Tat is dependant on Sat. Sat can
exist with or without Tat but Tat cannot.
The rays that are
refracted from the prism come out with a sound ‘ OM
’ and does the Creation which is not eternal. Due this reason one has to say
‘Hari OM Tat Sat’ before the start of any good work.
All living, inert and
non living beings are the part and parcel of this Creation. In fact only one
exists which is eternal. That is Sat.
Sat is Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient. It is Sat chit Anand. Sat is Truth Goodness and
beauty. If Name and configuration is
added then Sat will be called Creation.
Maya is the root
cause of Creation. Ma means not Ya means truth. Maya is untruth.
The dream of
Parabrahman is Maya. By opening his eyes man can get rid of nightmarish dream. Maya, The dream
of ParaBrahman, God the Father, can be
understood only through practice of essential KriyaYogaSadhana.
Jantoonaam narajanma
dulabham.
To be born as a man
is most difficult one amongst all living beings. It is the best.
One has to get into
the OM from this incarnation, from OM into
Krishna Consciousness/Tat, finally from Tat into the permanent abode,
Parabrahman/Sat/God the father.
The main theme of
Gita:
Hey man, awake from
this ignorance. Sat means the absolute/eternal Truth, Nyaasi means the Quest.
Doer of the quest for absolute/eternal
Truth. With the practice of KriyaYoga get Samadhi. Sama(equal or merge with) Adhi (Parabrahman,
God the father), Merge with God.
Man, three bodies:
Man is having three bodies. The outer body that is with flesh and blood
is called the inert Physical body. This is called Sthoola Sareera.
In side that an energetic Subtle body. This is
called Sookshma Sareera.
In side that an
Idea body. This is called Karana
Sareera.
For the existace of
these three Physical, Subtle & Idea bodies man will have individual Soul or
Vyashtaatma.
The physical, health
and social principles are applicable to the visible Physical body/Sthoola
Sareera.
Morals, Meta
physical things, traits of past karma, desires, thoughts, etc are applicable to
the invisible Subtle body/Sookshma Sareera.
Spiritual, divine and principles pertaining to
merger with Parabrahman/God the father are applicable to the invisible Idea
body/Karana Sareera.
Idea body/Karana Sareera
is very very nearer to Parabrahman, the remaing Subtle and Physical bodies will
get the required energy for their existance from Ideabody. The sequence is from
Idea to Subtle, and from Subtle to Physical body. For merger with God Man has
to prepare his Physical, Subtle and then Idea bodies sequentially.
God has given Will power to Man. Misery,
Pleasure, Happiness of Sense/Action organs are finally enjoyed by Physical bodt
at last.
Man will not get any
punishment until he does not utilise his Physical body for any crime. There is
a provision for a change/realization till the last moment and can escape from
the crime.

Kundalinee Shakti.(Individualized Maya, the delusion). This is the out going
31/2 turns coiled life force lying underneath the anus in sleeping State.
The awakened
Kundalinee shall energise the Chakras (plexus) of the meditating Sadhak.
It requires 12 years for the establishment of
the bad habits or past samskaaras and to
weaken the will power. Again to get the will power strengthened and for the
establishment of the good habits or past samskaaras 12 years’ time period of
ardent Kriya Yoga is required. This is the time spent by pandavas in Jungles.
13th year is required for giving up worldly desires and do Kriyayoga
Sadhana with fervour in solitude. This will lead the Meditator to get into
Nirvikalpa Samadhi.
Things that help the
Meditator for uninterrupted Sadhana:

Mahabharata—The effulgence of Cosmic
consciousness
The evil forces, Karavas, shall always be
troubling the meditator during his sadhana and deviate him from Meditation.
To weaken these evil
forces and regain the kingdom of God
is Mahabharata. The internal war with
these evil forces by the Meditator is kriyayogasadhana.
Sadguru Srikrishna in
Agna Chakra shall help the Meditator with intuition during Sadhana to become
triumphant that is to merge with Para Brahma.
To awaken the
Kundalinee, the outgoing life force, with Kriya Yoga Sadhana, lying underneath the Moolaadhara Chakra, and

Apparent meaning:
Dhritarashtra and
king Pandu are brothers. Dhritarashtra is blind by birth. Blind man is not
entitled to rule. So Pandu got the kingdom to rule.
Pandu had two wives,
Kunti and Madri. Their offsprings are called Pandavas. The offsprings of Dhritarashtra are called
Kauravas.
The worm jealousy
entered the mind of Duryodhana. He defeated the Pandavas deceitedly with the
help of cunning Sakuni in ‘ the game of dice’, gambling. As per the conditions
of this game, the Pandavas has to give kingdom
to Duryodhana and they were to spend their life in forest for 12 years and one year ‘in
disguise’.
Pandavas will fulfil
the two conditions and return to ask Duryodhana to give back their kingdom. They
will send Srikrishna as an ambassador to Kauravas for negotiations but of no
use. Duryodhana will not agree to give
even a space of needle. Kurukshetra war became inevitable.
Kurukshetra is
Dharmakshetra, place of virtue. The armies of both sides, Pandavas and
Kauravas, were lined up on either side face to face. Shree Krishna will install
the chariot in between the armies at a vantage point as per the desire of Arjuna who wanted to see the warriors of both
sides. Seeing the close relatives like fathers, fathers-in-law, Maternal and
paternal grand fathers, uncles, Teachers, brothers etc., Arjuna started wailing
and asks Shree Krishna as to how can he kill these close relations for the sake
of material kingdom. He feels that it is
a great sin. So he asks Krishna to preach him
the Kartavyam, the duty. The result is Gita.
Whom the Gita should
not be preached:
The Gita should not
be preached to those people who are not interested to come out of this Material
births and rebirths, not having respect to elders and Teachers, not having
devotion towards God, who condemn God,
Yogas taught in Yoga:
Karma yoga: Execute your duty without aspiring for any benefit.
Bhaktiyoga: Having
complete dedication and trust on God.
Nine ways of Bhakti,
dedication:
Sravanam keertanam
Smaranam Paadasevanam Archanam Vandanam Daasyam Sakhyam and Aatmaarpanam.
Eight types of
Ahimsa, Non-violence:
Ahimsaa prathamo
pushpah pushpamindriyanigrah
Sarvabhoota
dayaa kshamaa pushpam viseshatah
Shaantipushpam tapah
pushpam dhyaanapushpam tathaivacha
Satyamashtavidham
pushpam vishnoh preetikaram bhavet
Non-violence, control
of senses, kindness on all living beings, patience, peace, penance, meditation
and truthfulness are liked by God.
Man(Mind),
Buddhi(Intellect), Chitta(Sphere of thinking) and Ahamkaara(Ego or Iness)
together constitutes Anthah karana.
Satwa(Positive),
Rajo(Neutral) and Thamo(Negative) are the three qualities.
If the Anthah karana
is filled with the mixure of Rajo and Thamo Guna then it is hardened. With this
quality any amount of so called worships(Pooja), eulogizings(Stotra), religious
vows(Vratham), meditation are done just
for the sake of them without complete dedication and surrendering then that
will not lead to liberty.
Sarvabhoota Daya i.e., kindness on all living beings is quite essential.
This is the Practical Vedanta or Anushtaana Vedanta.
Dhyanayoga: To remain
concentrate on God only in spite of any amount of odds one may face.
To maintain
equanimity in Misery and happiness, Cold and Heat, Praise and abuse, Profit and
loss, honour and dishonour, Victory and defeat, is YOGA. This is what is preached by
Paramatma Shree Krishna.
Gnaanayoga: Firm conviction of ‘ Aham Brahmaasmi’, Iam the GOD.
Karma, Bhakti, Dhyana
and Gnaana yoga preached in Gita are not independent. They are interdependent.
Yagna:
To do Yagna several
things like helping people, Good amount of money, performers like Hotha,
Udgaata, Ritwiks, Learned Pandits, People having knowledge of Sastras,
are required.
The result of Yagnas
(Sacrifices) is trivial. Eternal liberty will not be the result of such Yagnas.
Shri Krishna has given Nishkama Karma
Yagna/Yoga to the mankind. Caste/class distinctions, strict ablutions, huge
expenditures are not involved in this.
‘’I am doing everything for God, I am not the Karta, the doer. .God is
the only Karta. Eating, smelling, tasting, breathing, running, walking etc
everything is done by God and only God. He is active and Iam passive.’’ This
firm conviction is required. what is required is to involve God in each and
every bit of day to day affairs and dedicate everything to HIM. Disowning
everything making God as Karta for everything is real Yagna. Even the ferocious
Kurukshetra war is also yagna if Arjuna disowns it. Even small things like
Swaadhyaaya( to read himself), controlling food are also Yagnas. The result is infinite Good. It culminates
into liberty.
Tyaagam,
Sanyasam:
To do Karma and
dedicate it to God is Tyaagam.
To do fire sacrifice
or not doing any work is not Sanyas.
Sat means Truth,
Nyasam means the quest. So the Quest for Sat i.e., God is Sanyasa. Without expecting do Karma. This will lead to attain the Truth.
Penance(Tapas):
To worship
Devas(Deities), Brahmanistas(Those who follow and step into the qualities of Brahma,
the God), Masters, Mahatmas (Great Souls), and acquiring virtues like
Saucham(Purity), Rujutwa (Honesty), Brahmacharyam (Celibacy), and Ahimsa (Non
,violence) are Saareerak Tapas (Bodily Penance). In fact to roam in Brahma is
Brahmacharya.
Satyam brooyaat
Priyam brooyaat
Priyam cha
naanrutam brooyaat
Na brooyaat Satyamapriyam
Etat dharma
sanaatanah
Always speak Truth
but speak sweetly.
Sweetly speak but do
not speak untruth.
But Truth should not
be spoken harshly.
This is our ancient
Dharma.
Purity of mind,
Silence, Self control, Purity in thoughts are called Manasika Tapas(Mental
Penance).
Configuration of Gita:
Vedas are devided
into Sahmitas(Karma Kanda or Action Chapters), Brahmanas(Upasana kanda or
Practcals) and Upanishads(Gnaana kanda or Wisdom/essence/moral chapters)
Gita contains 18
chapters in total.
Like Vedas, the first
6 chapters of Gita are called Karma shatkam(Action chapters), Second 6 chapters
are called Bhakti shatkam(Dedication chapters), and last 6 chapters are called
Gnaana shatkam(Wisdom chapters).
karma Shatkam is a
mixture of Bhakti(devotion) and Gnaana(Wisdom) yogas. Bhakti Shatkam is a
mixture of Karma and Gnaana(Wisdom) yogas. Gnana is a mixture of Karma and Bhakti(devotion)
yogas.
Gita consists of 18
chapters. These can be devided into Four parts, Karma, Bhakti, Dhyana and
Gnaana yogaas. These four Yogas are not dependant. They are inter dependant. By
doing Karma one will get dedication. The continuous dedication shall lead to
Dhyana, one pointedness. The intense Dhyana shall give the Sadhaka Gnana, Pure
wisdom.
Object of Gita:
Every speaker should
follow this procedure while giving speech. They are:
1) Upakrama—How to
start the speech?
Me.
(2— 7)
2) Abhyaasa— Practice.
Gita advises you to practice
Bhakti(dedication) and Saranaagati(surrender to God)
3)Apoorvata— The
importance of your message.
Gita highlits the importance of
Nishkaamakarma, Bhakti and Dhyaana so as to get complete and pure Wisdom,
Gnana.
4) Phalam — Result.
Gita counsels you to abide by the Paramatma, Stock, barrel
and gun. (Manasa, Vacha and Karmana). This results in merging with HIM and not
falling in the circle of Births and deaths(Janmarahityam).
5) Arthavada — The
purpose of work.
Do your work by dedicating it to God. Even
small amount of dedicated work shall remove gigantic worldly fear.
6) Upapatti — To ascertain the rendition of
the speaker.
Nishkaama Karma(Doing one’s duty without
aspiring for result), Bhakti(dedication) and Dhyana(one pointedness) shall
definitely lead to pure wisdom and no rebirth. ,
.7) Upasamhaaram —
Conclusion.
Give up everything and take shelter in me.
(18—66).
Description of the
Chapters in Gita:
1) Arjuna vishaada
yoga: (The grief of Arjuna):
Bhagavan Shree
Krishna has installed the chariot in between the tow armies of Pandavas and
Kauravas as desired by Arjuna. Seeing the Brothers, Brothers-in-law, Fathers,
Fathers-in-law, Paternal and maternal Uncles, Grand fathers, and Teachers
etc.,started wailing with bitter sorrow. He orgues with Shree Krishna that what
is the use of getting a kingdom after losing close kiths and kins. It is great
sin. Preach me the Kartavyam, the duty. The divine conversation between Shree
Krishna and Arjuna results in Gita.
In kriyayoga Sadhana,
Sadhak shall face East or North, fixing the gaze in Kootastha, Spinal
cord(Gaandeev Dhanush) erect and should sit in a fixed posture(Aasana). Sadhak
will utilize Swaasa(breath) as Astra(weapon) during Pranayama(control of Life
force)
In the initial
stages of Sadhana, every Sadhak, Meditator, shall get a doubt as to whether
this Yoga Sadhana shall give him the benefit of uniting with God or not? Or
else he has to lose the benefits of Material life as well. People shall
ridicule him as a clown who lost both Spiritual and material happiness.
To assuage the
feelings of Sadhak, Bhagavan ShreeKrishna takes the role of Sadguru. He
counsels his devotee Arjuna through
Intution, Sajaavatmabodha. HE expatiates the reality of the Soul, the Atma. This rendition is started
with Arjuna Vishaada yoga. Krishna replies with Sankhyayoga..
2) Saankhyayoga:
Cosmic Wisdom and how to attain IT. In
this chapter Shree Krishna describes the configuration of Soul, the need of War,
proposing the Nishkaama Karma, the qualities of Sthitapragna, the Self
realized, the necessity of controlling the senses. Shree Krishna tells Arhuna
to do each and every work including Kurukshetra war by being a name sake,
nimitaamaatra, dedicating and attributing everything to God. Here War means
internal war i.e., Sadhana. Shree Krishna explains the impotance of Sadhana.
But without doing Karma Yoga Sadhana is not possible. Hence the necessity of
Karma Yoga.
3) KarmaYoga:
The way to Spirituality: Doing Karma without wanting for results is Yagna.
Paramattma says:He is also doing and shall continue to do Karma in spite of
being Paramatma and wisdom personified.
One should do Karma impaasionately without apiring for results. Bhagavan
Shree Krishna preaches how to be victorious against Kama( Desire,Duryodhana), Krodha(Anger,
Dussaasana), Lobha (Greed, Karna ),
Moha(Delusion, Sakuni), Mada(Pride, Salya) and Matsarya(Envy, Material attachment,
Kritavarma,). This way the ground for
Karmayoga to preach Yoga wisdom to Arjun, the Sadhak, is created.
Knowingly or
unknowingly man does so many sins in his daily life while eating, cooking,
sweeping, by killing living beings. Certain expiations are suggested by our
ancient Rishis. They are called Panchasoonams.
1)Devayagna: Homa,
2)Ptruyagna: Tarpan,
3)Nruyagna:
Atithipooja,
4)Brahmayagna:
vedaadhyan, and
5)Bhootayagna: to
feed living beings.
4)Gnaanayoga:
Path to Wisdom: The expression of Nishkaama Karma, Doing work without result,
the sacred deelings of man of pure wisdom, the discussions of different yogas,
are mentioned by Bhagavan Shree Krishna.
Karma means
VihitaKarmas, the works that ought to be done.
Vikarma means
Nishiddha Karmas, the works that are not to be done.
Akarma means Not doing
any work and sitting idle.
The techniques
required for purification of Chitta are explained in Karmayoga. Firstly
Antahkarana should bepurified with NishkaamaKarmayoga(doing Karma without
expecting for results).Then that that Antahkarana will be filled with pure
wisdom, Suddhagnaana.
5)
Karmasanyasayoga: First it will explain
about Sankhya and Nishkaama Karma Yoga.
Then it will explain about the qualities of Sankhya,Nishkaama Karma Yoga, Gnana
yoga, Dhyana Yoga impregnated with Bhakti(Dedication).
Arjuna, the
Sadhak, gets a doubt as to which yoga is better to practice. To remove that
doubt, Bhagavan ShriKrishna shall
explain mutual dependacy of one yoga with another. No yoga is independent of
each other. All yogas are
interdependent.
Unless alphabets
are known, reading of words cannot be known. This leads to knowledge of
sentences, then small books, then treatises. So allegorical way of learning
alphabets, words, sentences and then
treatises are required.
6)AtmasamyamaYoga:
Demonstration of Nishkaama karma yoga, the characteristics of Yogaroodha(good
Yogi), elation of Soul, nature of Gnani, the man of pure wisdom, Dhyana
techniques, self control, the good fate of Yogabhrashta, the benefits of
Dhyana, are preached in this.
Once the nature and
signs of God is known, then one will be able to meditate on HIM with one
pointedness. Hence the necessity of Vignaana Yoga occurred.
7)Vignanayoga:
Nature of spirit, about wisdom with distinction of purity, each and everything
is God and God only, Para and Apara Prakriti i.e., ParaBrahman and Nature, What
is the meaning of Arta, the man who is need of
God due to his difficulties, Jignaasu, the man who wanted to know God,
Arthaarthi, the man who wanted God to
provide wealth, and Gnaani, the man of Pure wisdom, worshipping methods of
different Deities, and about non believers of God, are explained in this
chapter. Sadhaka shall make efforts and take the rescue of God to get rid of the bondage of Births
and Deaths. This Wisdom comes to the
Sadhak, the meditator, through Intution that is to be cultivated by the Sadhak
with self effort. This Intution is Bhagavan Shree Krishna. So Aksharaparabrahma
Yoga is necessitated.
8)
Aksharaparabrahma Yoga: The clarification of doubts of Arjuna about Brahman, Spirituality,
Karma, the usefulness of Om Chanting, Creation, deluge, the true nature of
Brahman and its attainment with Bhakti, the dedication, Sukla and Krishna
paksha paths, the greatness of Yogi, are explained in this Yoga.
9)RajavidyaRajaGuhyayoga:
This yoga is secret of secrets. The effect of Spirituality, the description of
Parabrahman, the advent of Creation, the nature of Deity and Devil, the nature
of doing work with desires and without desires, are explained in this Yoga.
10)Vibhuti Yoga:
The stage is now set for explaining about the glorification of Parabrahman in a
bigger way.
11)
Viswaroopasandarsana Yoga: Now Arjuna, the Sadhak, has acquired the
qualification with his sadhana to be able to witness and experience the Cosmic
Form of Parabrahman. Parabrahman has shown his Cosmic Form to Sadhak as per his
wish. Be an instrument in the hands of Parabrahman and do Kurukshetra war, the
Spiritual Kriya Yoga Sadhana. Again HE
comes back to his normal form as the Sadhak is not yet ready to witness this gigantic Cosmic form. With Ananyabhakti i.e., incessant Dhyana only one will be able to
experience and witness this Cosmic Form. 40Watt Bulb cannot hold 1000watt
Electricity. It is akin to that. Either
bulb is to be of 1000Watt+ or the Electricity should be scaled down to 40watt.
12)BhaktiYoga:
The format of Bhakti, complete surrender, different Spiritual Methods, tangible
Brahman, the qualities of true Bhakta, the surrenderer, is explained in this
Yoga. Then the stage is set for intangible Brahman.
13)Kshetrakshetragna
vibhaaga Yoga: Kshetra means Field, Kshetragna means Soul. The Format of
Kshetra and Kshetragna, the pure wisdom, Ignorance, Description of The Spirit
and Nature, How to attain Nirguna Brahman, Intangible Spirit, are explained in
this chapter.
14)GunatrayavibhaagaYoga:
The role of satwa, Rajas and Tamo
Gunas(qualities) in Spiritual Sadhana, how
man is bound by these qualities, the nature of those qualities, how to
grow beyond these qualities, the description of Gunateeta JeevanMukta, the
Sadhak who had overcome these qualities and attained liberty during this
incarnation itself, are explained in this Yoga. Then to attain Ananya Bhakti,
dedication personified, Purushottama Prapti yoga is needed.
.
15) Purushottama
Prapti yoga: The description of Samsaara Vriksha, the material world, path to
attain ParaBrahman, discussion of Jeevatma, the All pervasive GOD, is expalined
in this Yoga. To explain things like qualities of Virtue and vice,
DaivasuraSampadwibhaaga Yoga is necessitated.
16) DaivasuraSampadwibhaaga
Yoga: The Soul qualities that make Sadhak God-like, the qualities of man of demon-like, the three fold gate of
Hell, is explained in this Yoga.
Sraddhaatraya Vibhaga Yoga is necessitated for the Right Understanding
of Scriptural Guidance for the conduct of life
17)
Sraddhaatraya Vibhaga Yoga: Three kinds of Faith, three patterns of Worship,
three Classes of Food, three kinds of Dana, giving, are explained in this Yoga.
18)MokshaSanyasa
Yoga: This chapter is summation of all the 17 yogas. Sanyasaa (renunciation),
Tyaga(Giving), the roots of Action and
liberation, three Grades of Knowledge, Action, and Character,
Buddhi(Intelligence), Dhriti(Fortitude), etc., are discussed in this Concluding
Chapter.
Foreword
Mahabharat
means Great Effulgence. The Sadhak shall fix his gaze in Kootastha, the centre
between the eye brows, while doing Meditation. Then he will find Great(Maha)
Effulgence(Bharat). His life is useless if who does not get this Great
Effulgence at least once in his life time.
Enemies
are two types, Internal and External. To defeat external enemies physical eyes
are required. To defeat internal enemies internal eye is required. That internal eye is called
‘Third
Eye’.
Every
man consists of several traits. They are: Dhritarashtra, Blind Mind impregnated with love
and affection on his children whether they are good or bad.
Sanjaya,
the conqueror of himself, embodiment of Pure Thinking.
Bheeshma,
Ego.
Drona,
Habits(Good or Bad)
Vikarna,
Raga and Dwesha, Attachment and detatchment.
Duryodhana,
Kama or King of Desires.
Dussaasana,
Krodha or Anger.
Karna,
Lobha or Greed.
Sakuni,Moha
or Delusion.
Salya, Madam or Pride.
Kritaverma,
Maatsarya or Jealousy.
These
are the symbolic representation of Kauravas, qualities of vice, Rakshasa
prakriti or Demonic Nature, in Man.
Pandavas
represent qualities of virtue, Daivee Prakriti, Godly Nature, in Man.
Each
and every man contains both Pandavas and Kauravas in him.
A
man can not be 100% cruel. He may be having 1% Good quality or thinking. That
1% Goodness shall lead him to think ‘ Who am I, where from I have come?, what
is my destination?, what I am doing is right or wrong? ’’ That leads him to do
Kurukhetra war. Then with his Will Power he will try to overcome his Karma.
That endeavour is called Sadhana. To reach his Home, Paramatman, is the meaning of his
Sadhana.
Pure
Mind, Pure Intellect and Pure Self are one and the same.
Moolaadhara(Coccygeal),
Swaadhisthana(Sacral) and Manipura(Lumbar) plexus are Kurukshetra.
Manipura,
Anahata(Dorsal) and Visuddha(Cervical) Chakras are Kurukshetra – Dharmakshetra.
Visuddha,
Agna and Sahasrara are Dharmakshetra.
The
outgoing force of life energy at the base of the spine in
Moolaadhara(Coccygeal) is called Kundalinee. The Kundalinee serpent force runs
down through a circular passage coiled 31/2 turns like a snake into the nerves. Only by super
Psycho-Physical methods like Kriya Yoga Practice, this Kundalinee can be
awakened.
The
Kundalinee passage is the Gate Way
of the out going Life Force at the base of the spine. This gateway is
responsible for flooding the life current from the soul region of the different
senses of sight, touch, smell, taste, and hearing, including the earth bound,
physical, creative force of sex. When this is ego oriented then it is called sleeping
Kundalinee. When it is God oriented due to Kriya sadhana, it called awakened
Kundalinee.
If
the battery is not charged in regular intervals In a Mobile cell
Phone whenever required, it will be dead. Man will bring his
Prarabdha karma out of his accumulated Sanchita Karma. The main thing the man
brings alongwith his Prarabdha karma is Hansas. One Hansa=one breath-in and one
breath-out. To have a healthy and energetic life at least, one has to awaken
the Kundalinee life force by doing Kriyayoga Sadhana 30 minutes in the morning
and evening. This Kundalinee force is called Draupadi in
Mahabharata.
Arta
jana= the one who is required of help from Sadguru, embodiment of pure
wisdom.
The
war between Positive and negative forces during Sadhana to a Arta Jana, Arjuna
or the Sadhak, is expatiated through Bhagavan Shree Krishna, Pure Intellect or
Intuition. That Auspicious Sacred song is called Shreemad Bhagavadgita.
Shree=Sacred
Mat=
Mind,
Bhagavat=
Parabrahman,
Gita
= Song.
Bha=
Bhakti or Dedication,
Ga=
Gnana or Pure wisdom,
va=Vairagya
(detatchment/impassion)
ta=
tatwagnaan or That is You only wisdom.
The
sacred song that is heard by a Sadhak through Pure mind or Parabrahman is
Shreemad BhagavadGita.

Dhritarashtra uvaacha:--
Dharmakshetre Kurukshetre samaavetaa yuyutsavah
Maamakaah Pandavaashchaiva kimakurvata Sanjaya 1
Dhritarashtra said:
O, Sanjaya, My
offspring and sons of Pandu have gathered in the holy plain of Kurukshetra with
the interest of doing war. What did they do?
Mind normally works
with the guidace given by the Senses. The Pons Varoli is a part of the Brain
stem. This is situated above the Medulla
and Centered below the two hemispheres of Cerebrum. This connects the Cerebrum,
Cerebellum and Medulla. The size of Varoli is 1x1x11/2 Inches. It consists of
ascending sensory tracts and descending motor tracts. These tracts connects the
brain to the rest of the body. The Manas, the sense mind, the subtle magnetic
pole turned outwars toward the world of matter, is in the Pons Varoli. This
Varoli is physiologically ever busy with sensory coordination.
The cells of of Pons Varoli contains a
chemical substance called Norepinephrine. This chemical stimulates the
mobilization that prepares the body for action, dreaming, sleep and mind.
The Buddhi, the
intelligence draws its determinating power
from the Superconsciousness of Soul.
Atma, the Soul,
manifests ITS consciousness through the Chakras, plexus, related to Karana
Sareera, the Idea body.
Learned say ‘ Kshetre
Kshetre dharma Kuru’. Do Good in each and every field. In each and every Chakra, plexu, is to
be done to ward off darkness.
Each and every human
being consists of Moolaadhara, Swadhistaana, Manipura, Anahata, Visuddha, Agnaa
and Sahasraara Chakras in the Spinal cord
pertaining to Karana Chetana, Idea body Consciousness.
Moolaadhara,
Swadhistaana and Manipura Chakras in the Spinal cord are called Kuru Kshetra.
They are also called Sansara Chakras or worldly plexuses. They entangle the man
to be material bound.
Manipura, Anahata and
Visuddha Chakras in the Spinal cord are called Kurukshetra—Dharmakshetra.
Visuddha, Agnaa and
Sahasraara Chakras in the Spinal cord
are called Dharmakshetra. The entangle the man to be God bound.
Dhrutam Rashtram Ena
Dhritaraashtrena.
Dhritaraashtra, Blind
Mind Blinded by the slavery to senses,
has asked Sanjaya. The Devine insight, the one who knows oneself, the power of
impartial intuitive self-analysis, discerning introspection and flawless critic
in Sadhak, the meditator, is Sanjay. Sanjay means completely victorious.
The vice forces that do Karma according to the
whims of material bound mind and Senses is Kauravas in Sadhak. The Pandavas are
forces of virtue in the Sadhak that do Karma as per the God bound Pure
Intellect, Suddha Buddhi. So the Kurukshetra War is the war between Virtue and
Vice in each and every Sadhak in particular and in each and every man
ingeneral.
So Sense Mind is
asking as to what these forces have done before the start of Meditation.
When Sperm and Ovum
unites to form a human body, a flash of light appears in the Astral world. This
is Heavenly Home of Souls between incarnations. That light transmits a pattern
which attracts a soul according to the Karma of that Soul.
The war of
Kurukshetra is to be won on three bodies, Physical, Astral, and Idea.
1)
The moral and Material war between virtue and
vice on the sensory field, Kurukshetra,
2)
The psychological war waged in Kriya yoga
meditation on the Cerebrospinal field, Dharmakshetra —Kurukshetra. This is the
war between mental tendencies/inclinations of Sense Mind, Manas, and the pure
discriminative tendencies of Intelligence, Buddhi. Mind pulls the life force and consciousness
towards the matter. Intelligence pulls the life force and consciousness towards
the Soul
3)
The Spiritual battle fought in Deep Meditation.
This is fought on Cerebral field, Dharmakshetra. This is to overcome all lower
states of Chetana, Consciousness. In thisbattle the Sadhak, the Meditator,
shall discard all his egoity and sense slavery, fully and completely, to get
united the Soul with Spirit. This victorious union of Soul and Spirit is called
Samadhi, the union of human consciousness with Cosmic Consciousness.
This state of Samadhi
may be achieved by Sadhak, many a number of times, till such time his Karma,
Past(Sanchita), Present(Prarabdha) and Future(Aagami), is completely
annihilated. In this state the yogi is liberated from all his three bodily
encasements, Physical(sthoola), Astral (Sookshma) and Ideal(Karana). He will
remain a free Soul in Ever-existing, Ever-Conscious, Ever New bliss of
Omnipresent Spirit. This Samadhi is called Mahasamadhi. If the yogi chooses to
descend again from his Samadhi into the Consciousness and activities of his
body, he does so in the sublime state of Nirvikalpa Samadhi. In this highest
state of externalized Soul onsciousness, he remains anchored to God Consciousness.
He shall be doing duties without any attachment to the fullest satisfaction
of the Cosmic plan of God.

Sanjay said:--
The King Duryodhana,
after having seen the systematically planned Armies of Pandavas, approached his
Guru preceptor, Drona, and said as below:
From here onwards the total conversation
between Arjuna and Bhagavan Shree Krishna is to be assumed as the narration by
Sanja with King Dhritarashtra. between
The victory of calmness of Soul over the
restlessness of Ego is of four stages: (1) Always restless, never calm. In this
state the senses of man is under the complete control of Ego, Ahamkaara. (2)
Sometimes restless i.e., Senses are under the control of Ego, sometimes calm
i.e., Senses are under the control of Soul (3)Most of the times calm i.e.,
Senses are under the control of Soul mostly, few times restless i.e., Senses
are under the control of Ego occassionally. (4) Always Calm, no restlessness
i.e., Senses are under the completel control of Soul. This comes due to Kriya
Yoga Sadhana.
Duryodhana represents
king of desires. Drona represents Habits. The reason for desires is pst habits.
Habits may be god, bad or mixture of Good and bad. The meditating Sadhak will
have both Good and bad habits.

O, Teacher, behold
the great armies of Pandavas, arranged
in a planned order by your disciple, Dushtadyumna.
Dushtadyumna, son of
King Drupada and brother of Draupadi, represents dispassion. This comes due to
deep spiritual intensity and devine devotion.
Moolaadhara,
Swadhistaana, Manipura, Anahata and
Visuddha CHAKRAS exist in
Merudanda, Spinal cord.
Draupadi in
Mahabharata represents Kundalinee lying underneath the anus in the vicinity of
Moolaadhara Chakra, Sadeva Chakra. Kundalinee is individualized Maya.
21/2 Knuckles above
the Moolaadhara Chakra in the Spinal Cord is the Swaadhistaanachakra, Nakula
Chakra.. 21/2 Knuckles of one’s own index finger is the measurement.
Manipurachakra,
Arjunachakra, exists behind navel.
Anahatachakra,
Bheemachakra, exists behind Heart.
Visuddhachakra,
Yudhistira, exists in Gullet.
Agnaachakra,
SriKrishnaChakra, exists in Kootastha. Kootastha is the space between the eye
brows in the fore head.
In the centre of the
top surface of skull, above the Cerebrum, exists Brahmarandhra. Underneath the
Brahmarandhra exists Sahasraarachakra, Paramatmachakra.
Drupada— Bhautika
vishayavaanchaarahita, Dispassion for material enjoyment due to deep spiritual
fervour.
Dushtadyumna—Antargata
Atmagnana prakasam, internal effulgence burning with the fire of Soul wisdom.
Sanskaras, Habits,
are of two types. they are Daivee
samskaaraas, Devine Habits, and Rakshasa Samskaaraas, Demonic Habits. Drona is
teacher having both the habits. So Dushtadyumna of Good habits, the commander
of Pandava Armies, and Kauravas of Bad habits, both of them are his disciples.
The physical world
consists of more dogs, pigs and menials
than tigers. Likewise the men of vice will be numerically more than men
of virtue. Likewise the armies of Kauravas exceed Pandavas.
Oh, the
representative of Habits, Drona preceptor, see the armies of armies of virtue
arranged by Dushtadyumna, internal effulgence burning with the fire of Soul
wisdom.

There are many mighty
heros, extraordinary bowmen as skillful as Bhima and Arjuna, in the armies of
Pandavas. They are Yuyudhaana(Satyaki), Virata, and Maharatha Drupada.
Dhrishtaketu (Son of
Sisupala, king of Chedi), chekitana, the powerful Kasiraja, men of
eminence—Purujit, Kuntibhoja and Saibya.
The strong
Yudhaamanyu, the valiant Uttamaujas, Abhimanya, and the sons of Five Pandavas.
They are all Mahatrathies—all lords of great chariots.
Maharadha means the
one who alone can fight singlehandedly with 10,000 warriors at a time.
In this devine
Pandava army,
Bheema represents
life force control, Arjuna repreaents self control. There are many warriors who
are equal to the calibre of Bheema and
Arjuna in the Army of Pandavas.
They are:
Yuyudhanu – Devine
Dedication, Virat—Samadhi, Drupada—Teevra samvega or Impartiality, Chekitana—Adhyatmika Smriti, Memory, Kasiraj—Pragna, Pure Wisdom, Drushtaketu—Yama, Manasika Nigraha sakati,
Mental equanimity, Saibya—Manasika
Dhrudhatwam, Mental fortitude,
Kuntibhoja—Asana, right posture,
Purujit—Pratyaahara,Mental interiorization, Yudhamanyu—Praanayama, Life force
control, Uttamaujas—Veeryam,
Cellibacy, Abhimanyu—The one who can
control oneself in all ways, and
Upapandavas—the nerve centres of Chakras, Plexus. Dharan, Dhyana and Samadhi all combinely
called Samyama.
All the above
warriors are Maharadhies i.e., the great warriors. They all can keep away the
Physical desires and helps the Sadhak, the Meditator, to continue his Sadhana.
Sperm, wavering mind
that is desirous of physical pleasure, Breath and Life Force are inter
related.
With the media of
cellibacy the Sadhak shall move from Physical pleasure to Divinity. Devine
Shradda, Dedication, means Attraction towards Parabrahman.
Adhyatmika Smriti, Spiritual Memory, Gnapti,
Spirtual rememberance, Sadhak shall recognize that he is the replica of
Parabrahman.
Sama means
Equal/merge, Adhi means Parabrahman. To merge with Parabrahman is Samadhi.
Sadhak and
Parabrahman both becoming Unity is Samadhi.
To eradicate Physical
pleasure, desires and entanglememnts 12 years of ardent Sadhana is required.
After that the Sadhak shall start tasting Samadhi in 13th Year.
With Pragna, Pure
widom, the Sadhak shall differentiate Good and Bad. He will be able to be away
from evil forces with this Pure wisdom.
He will be cautious against these forces.
Due to Teevrasamvega
or Nispakshapata, Impassioante impartiality, the Sadhak, Meditator, shall draw
himself away from Physical wants.
Thre are three types
of conflicts, Adibhautika sangharshana, Adi Daivika Sangharshana and Adhyatmika Snagharshana.
Adibhautika
sangharshana: The Physical pains of
Physical body.
Adi Daivika
Sangharshana: The mind related problems like thoughts, thoughts emanating from
the previous thought(s), etc. These come due to unsteady mind. The Mind make the Sadhak attracted to Physical wants, where as the Pure
Buddhi, intellect, shall draw the Sadhak attracted to Soul due to
interiorization. These are the pains of
Mind.
Adhyatmika
Snagharshana: The Sadhak shall be in and out of Samadhi several number of
times. That is he will be coming to Physical Body Consciousness from Spiritual
Consciousness due to the influence of
Sanchita KARMA. After several incessant and dedicated attempts his Karma
will be burnt., Ego becomes eradicated, the Sadhak shall be liberated from his
three conflicts, Body, mind and Soul.
After complete
liberation, Paripurna Samadhi, the Yogi can come or leave this Physical world
at his will. This is called ICCHHA MRITYU. Even if incarnated, he will be
anchored to Parabrahman, God the Father, always.
Abhimanyu:
Abhi sarvatra manute
prakasate iti Abhimanyu.
Mahabharat means the
great effulgence. The Cosmic Consciousness is a great effulgence. In order to gain this Cosmic
consciousness the Sadhak has to fight
the forces within and without, the forces of virtue and vice, the forces of positive and negative, is MAHABHARAT.
Abhimanyu—The one who
can control oneself in all ways
Abhimanyu means the
one who is triumphant over self or the one who conquered himself, the liberated
one.
Abhimanyu was
entangled in a Delusion like cob’s web called Padmavyooha, a strategic war
plan. He was surrounded by evil forces like Duryodhana(Kama, desires),
Dussaasan (Krodha, Anger), Karna(Lobha, Greediness), Sakuni(Moha, Delusion),
Salya(Mada, Pride), Kritaverma(Maatsarya, Jealousy), Drona(Samskaara, Habits,
good or bad) and Jayadradha(Abhinivesa, determination of some purpose, good or
bad). The Sadhak, Abhimanyu, with great fortitude of self control could grow
beyond the consciousness of Physical, Subtle and Idea body. Then he attained Samyak Samadhi. Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi
together is called Samyak Samadhi. Samyak Samadhi is a Spiritual pinnacle,
greatest Spiritual achievement.. After attaining Samyak Samadhi the Sadhak
cannot live in this mundane world. He
will merge with Parabrahman. It is called MAHA SAMADHI. Merging with
Parabrahman is called the exit of Abhimanyu.
Dharana—to make the
restless mind steady,
Dhyana—to concentrate
on God only,
Samadhi—Ecstatic
union with God.
ONAM
Sri Mahavishnu comes
in the guise of a dwarf, Vamana Avatar, and requests Emperor of Demons, Bali , to donate three feet/steps of land. In spite of denial by Shukracharya, the Guru
preceptor of Rakshasas, the Demons, Bali donates three feet of land as promised.
The Vamana, Shree
Mahavishnu, magically grows his foot /step infinitely. He keeps first foot/step
of infinite measurement covering the whole earth, second foot/step covering the
whole Space. HE asks Bali as to where to keep
His third foot /step. As desired by Bali Shree Mahavishnu keeps His third foot
/step on MahaBali, the Great emperor, and pushes him to Patala, the abiss.
Patala is the region underneath the earth.
VA means Varishta, the great or steady, MANA
means Mind. Vamana means the steady
Mind. For steady mind three feet/steps are required.
Sadhak, the Meditator
confronts three steps during his Sadhana. They are 1)Adibhautika, Physical, 2)
Adidaivika, Subtle, and 3) Adhyatmika, Spiritual.
1)Adibhautika,
Physical: —Bodily pains etc.,
2) Adidaivika,
Subtle: — Mind related problems like thoughts, sub thoughts etc.,
3) Adhyatmika,
Spiritual: — Sadhana related problems like Sleep, lazyness etc.
These are called
Mala, Aavarana and Vikshepana Doshas, faults.
Sadhak, Kriyayogi, seeing unity with Parabrahman, shall be cautious
about these things. To make mind steady one has to annihilate these three
faulty steps. One should pray God to make his Sadhana a success by keeping
these three falts away from him.
Everything is God and so everything is under His control. God is tangible and also intangible. So He
Himself will come in some Avatar, form, and helps the ardent Meditator in his
Sadhana by asking him to part with these three faults.
Sadhak shall find the
his own replica in a miniature form measuring upto his thumb in Kootastha, the
space between the eye brows on the forehead during the intensity of Sadhana.
This miniature form is Vamana.
Chakra means thought
Circles. Varti means business/ profession. Chakravarti means the mind professed
with wants and thought circles. Bali Chakravarti means to do away the mind
professed by wants and thought circle with dispassion..
Sukracharya means the
follower of Ego. It is the source of
Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada and Matsarya. Sacrificing these is BALI . The Sadhak has to grow beyond these vices in him.
To keep them within ourselves without following them is pushing them into the
Abiss, Patala. Patala is not anywhere else. It is in us only. To grow beyond these sense wants with
dispassion is what is required.

Oh, learned one, now
I will tell you about the great warriors in our Army for your rememberance.
Now Duryodhan,

Our unlimited Army
having such great warriors is being protected by Bheeshma. Limited Pandava Army is being protected by
Bheema
Kauravas, Physical
sense wants are unlimited, is being protected by Bheeshma, Ego. The sense
slavery and egoism shall make the man
restless due to unlimited wants and hence his Life force also will be unsteady,
Chanachal, and not under his control.
Pandavas, impregnated
with Truth(Satyam) and Righteousness, Dharma, is naturally a limited one that is protected by Bheema, Life force
control. Man of Dharma and Truth is egoless and not a sense slave. His wants
are limited and so shall have life force
under his control.
Truth is eternal. It
is like a fire. Untruth is like a dried grass. Any amount of dried grass cannot
cover the fire, the Truth. It has to burn.
The Army under the
protection of uncontrolled life force, Bheeshma, the Ego, cannot defeat or
subjugate the Army under the protection of controlled life force, Bheema,
aspiring to unite with Parabrahman,

desire,Kama, king of evil forces, is always afraid of Spiritual forces of Virtue. So he always call
his evil forces to protect his Ego. If
ego is annihilated the goal to reach God will be smooth and easier. Here
Duryodhan is calling all his forces to protect Bheeshma, the Ego.
Only Bheema, the Life
force control, is alone sufficient to protect
Pandavas, the Devine forces of virtue in the Sadhak. That is the
strength of Life force control. All other evil forces will have no effect
before Life force control.

Oldest and powerful
amongst the Kurus, Bheeshma blew his Conch Shell resounding like a roar of lion
to cheer Duryodhan.
Bheeshma is the
oldest in Kurus next to Bahlika.
When a man is sick or
restless with sense pleasures, his breath will be faster. Likewise to cause
cheerfulness to Duryodhan, the embodiment of sense wants/pleasures, Bheeshma,
the Ego, blowing his Conch shell created cascaded sounds. That is due to Ego in
him his breath became faster.

Then after Bheeshma
blowing his Conch shell, the rest of the
warriors in Kaurava Army also blew their Conch shells, kettledrums, cymbals,
tabors, and trumpets creating ruckus.
During intense
meditation, Sadhak, the Meditator, shall here the sounds of physical and subtle sense organs. They will be heard
aloud by the Sadhak awe stuck. They are
the sounds given above.
Four things will play a great part in
Sadhana. They are:
Mind, Breath, Sperm
and Life force.
There are 72,000
subtle nadis exist in human body.
Amongst them three subtle nadis, Ida,
Pingala and Sushumna are very important.
Ida subtle nadi exists on the left side of
Spinal cord, Pingala on the right side of Spinal cord and in the middle of
Spinal cord Sushumna subtle nadi exists. These three nadis travel upto
Kootastha, the space between the two eye brows, together from Moolaadhara
chakra underneath the anus. Ida and Pingala halt at Kootastha. Sushumna proceeds
further upto Sahasrara chakra underneath the Brahmarandhra in the middle top of
the head.
The Kundalinee, illusion, the individualized
Maya, delusion, is called Draupadi.
Kundalinee, the outgoing life force, is like a snake. Its tail is in the upper
chakras and hood is near the Mooladhara chakra. When man does not do any
kriyayoga sadhana then it is in sleepinf state and hence called Sleeping
Kundalinee. It is awakened with the Sadhana. The Tamed or awakened Kundalinee
is sent through middle Sushumna subtle nadi. This is then travel through
Mooladhara, Swadhistaana, Manipura, Anahata, Visuddha, Agna negative &
Posite and then reach Brahmarandhra
through Sahasrara.
Mooladhara, Swadhistaana and Manipura
Chakras are called Mundane Chakras. This field is called Kurukshetra. Man
confined to this field does not do any good, spitual Sadhana and always self
centered. This field is also called Brahma Granthi, a knot.
Manipura, Anahata and Visuddha, Chakras are
called Mundane—Spiritual Chakras. This field is called
Kurukshetra—Dharmakshetra. Man confined to this field does have mixed mundane
and spiritual feelings. Even though self centered he does think about spiritual
Sadhana. This field is also called Rudra
Granthi, a second knot.
Visuddha, Agna negative & Posite and
Sahasrara.Chakras are called Spiritual or Devine Chakras. This field is
called Dharmakshetra. Man confined to this field does only good, Spiritual
Sadhana and always God centered. This field is also called Vishnu Granthi, a
third and last knot.
The
conflicts of subtle positive and
negative forces in regard to Sadhana is called the Great war of Mahabharat.
The crossing of Mooladhara, Swadhistaana, Manipura, Anahata
and Visuddha by Kundalinee force, is
called marrying five husbands by Draupadi.

After that , Sri
Krishna and Arjuna seated in their great chariot with its yoke of white horses,
splendidly blew their celestial conch shells.
Horses represent
Senses. White indicates purity. The one who does great Sadhana with pure senses
is always considered to be great. Body is the replica of Chariot. Srikrishna
represents pure intellect, Suddha Buddhi.
Arjuna represents the good Sadhak, the meditator. Buddhi and the good
meditator both blew their Conch shells indicate the shedding of impurities.
Conch shell represents Ego, Ahamkaar. Blowing the Conch shell represents
the Sadhak has done Rechak, breath out with force.
Maa represents Earth,
Dhava represents Husband, Madhava means the husband of Earth that is
shreekrishna Consciousness or the God in Creation.

Srikrishna blew
Paanchajanya, Arjuna blew Devadatta, Bheema who does ferocious works blew the
great Sankha, Conch Shell, Poundra. Yudhistira blew Anantavijaya, Nakula blew
Sughosha, Sahadeva blew Manipushpak. The wearer of great Bow, Dhanush,
Kaasiraj, Maharathi Sikhandi, Drishtadyumna, Viraat, always victorious Satyaki,
Drupada, Upapaandavaas, sons of Draupadi, Abhimanyu who had the great
shoulders, and all other warriors in the Pandava Army also respectively blew their Conch shells separately.
Sikhandi is a
Napumsak, neither male nor female. Sikhandi represents neutrality. Ego, Bheeshma, cannot have any
role against neutrality, Sikhandi. .
Each and Every Chakra
has got colour, rays, taste and sound. Sadhak hears during his sadhana are the
sounds of the conflicts between the positive and negative forces. They are
these sounds of Conch shells. Positive forces shall aid meditation. Negative
forces oppose the meditation.
Parabrahman and
Paramatma is one and the same. Brahmam pervaded through Ignorance. Its result is
Creation. If the Brahmam is supposed as four parts then one part is Jagat,
creation, having Name and Configuration. This ia called Vyakta Brahmam or
vyaakrita Brahmam. This is visible to the senses. This is God in Creation.
The remaining three
parts of the Brahmam is Avyakta Brahmam, Nirakara or Avyaakrita Brahmam. This
is not visible to the senses. This is beyond Creation. This is Sat, Chit and Anand. This is
Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient. This is truth, goodness and beauty.
Ateetam: Suppose you sat in a room. The room
is in you as well as beyond you. This is called Ateetam. But you cannot be
beyond room. Likewise God is in you and beyond you. An electronic gadget requires Electrical
energy to make it work. Likewise our body requires Cosmic Energy to become
conscious.
Hydrogen and oxygen
are not visible to the naked eye. These two invisible airs combine together to
become visible water. Sun is having effulgence which is inherent. Likewise this
inert Creation, born out of ignorance is called MAYA. Ma not true, Ya means
true. Maya is inherent of Parabrahman,
the Cosmic Energy. The very basis or its existence is due to
Parabrahman.
The Yogi who has
fully recognized Parabrahman in everything cannot find Maya. Likewise man
imbued with Maya cannot recognize all pervasive Paramatman.
Inert Maya,
Ignorance, is the cause of Creation but
not the steady Brahmam. This Maya is called Yogamaya.
Yogamaya consisting
of Satwa, positive, Rajo, Neutral, and Tamo, negative, Gunas, qualities, is
called Chit Sakti, Mahamaya, or Moolaprakriti, the root cause of creation.
Kaarana srishti, Idea
Creation: Ignorance, Avidya, became creative with the presence of Cosmic
Consciousness. From Ignorance, Avidya, impregnated with Cosmic Consciousness,
first Space(Sound), Akaas(Sabda), existed. Air(Touch), Vayu(Sparsh), came out
of space. From Vayu came out Fire (Configuration), Agni(Roop). Water(Taste),
Varuna (Rasa), came out from Agni. Lastly Earth(Smell), Prithvi(Gandha), came
out of Varuna. These are called five electricities, Panchabhootaas. They are
not having their own consciousness.
The iron nails will
not have its own magnetism. They get magnetized due to the presence of a
Natural magnet. Likewise the cosmic
consciousness gradually entered into Akasa(Space), Air(Vaayu), Fire(Agni),
Water(Varuna) and Earth(Prithvi). These With the presence of Cosmic
Consciousness become active and conscious.
These electricities are by themselves insentient but with the presence
of Parabrahmam they become sentient.
Sound(Sabda),
Touch(Sparsh), Configuration(Roopa), Taste(Rupi) and Smell(Gandha), five
attributes, are called Pancha Tanmatras. Omkaar is the first and foremost Sound
that came out of Ignorance or Primordial nature, Moola prakriti,
This whole Jagat,
Creation, borne out of OMKAR. These subtle Panchamahabhootas shall have
Satwa(Positive), Rajo(Neutral) and Tamo(Negative) Gunas, qualities. The
Ignorance with three Gunas is called primordial ignorance, Moola Agnaanam, Karana Srishti, Idea creation.
The idea
body/creation is is called Apancheekrita
or unttreated.vibratory electricities
and is called Mahat.
In half of untreated

The treated five
electricities, Space, Air, Fire, Water and Earth, are called as such henceforth.
The Positively
predominant Subtle five Electricities is manifested from Primordial Ignorance,
Avidya, Moola Prakriti, with three qualities i.e., Gunas, Satwa (positive),
Rajo(Neutral) & Tamo(Negative).
These Positively predominant five electricities were each having only
one attribute respectively.. That is Positively predominant Akasha(Space) had Sabda(Sound), Vayu(Air) had
Sparsha(Touch), Agni(Fire) had Roopa(Configuration), Varuna(Water) had Rasa(Taste)
and Prithvi(Earth) had Gandha(Smell). These Sabda, Sparsha, Roopa, Rasa and
Gandha are called Tanmatras(Powers) but not fleshy organs that are visible to
naked eye.
This Physical
creation, Sthoola Sreishti, is not like this. Physical Akasha had Sabda,
Vayu had Sabda and
Sparsha,
Agni had Sabda ,
Sparsha and Roopa,
Varuna had Sabda ,
Sparsha, Roopa and Rasa,
Prithvi had Sabda ,
Sparsha, Roopa, Rasa and Gandha.
Akasha=Space,
Vayu=Air, Agni=Fire,
Varuna/ Jalam=Water
and Prithvi=Earth.
Sabda=Sound,
Sparsh=Touch, Roop=Configuration, Rasa= Taste,
and Gandha= Smell.
Sthoola/Bhautika=Physical,
Sookshma=Subtle, Karana=Idea.
Chaitanyam= Consciousness
From these Five
Physical Electricities, the following
manifested:
Jarayu= Animals with
four legs,
Andajam= the beings
that come out of eggs like birds, and
crawling creatures like snakes etc.,
Swedajam= mosquitoes,
worms etc and
Udbhijam= trees and
plants that cannot move and confined to a fixed place.
The physical
antahkarana consisting of Mano(Mind), Buddhi(Intellect), Chitta and Ahamkaara
(Ego) is manifested from Physical Five Electricities called Akasha Panchakam.
Akasha menans Space, Pancha or Panchakam means Five.

Devadatta coming out of Manipuraa, the devine Temple bell sound of Bhima’s Poundra coming out of Anahata, the
devine stream water sound of
Yudhishtira’s Anantavijayam coming out of Visuddha, the devine OHM sound
of Srikrishna’s Paanchajanyam coming out
of Agna, has frightened Duryodhan, the king of physical sense desires, and his
Kaurava Army. However big a pumpkin may
be it can be easily cut by a small knife. Likewise the commander of army of
negative forces is afraid of
positive forces of Sadhak.

Oh! King Dhritarashtra, then while the warfare
was about to start in the war field, Kurukshetra, Arjuna, he whose flag bears
the Monkey Emblem, lifted his bow and spoke to SriKrishna as below: —
He SriKrishna, let my chariot be placed at a
strategic point in between the two armies, that I may be able to see properly
the warriors with whom I have to fight.
I wanted to observe
the warriors who have gathered here with a desire to fight for Duryodhana, the
king of Physical sense desire.
The
Consciousness/Energy that comes out of Parabrahman is termed as SriKrishna
Consciousness or the God in Creation.
The God in Creation
has devided itself into six types of Consciousness.
These six
consciousnesses and SriKrishna Consciousness totaling seven consciousnesses are not to be seen with
ordinary eye. These are visible to only
enlightened yogi.
If an object is to be
seen then the sun rays are to fall on that obect and then to be get
reflected. This is Abhasachaitanya or
reflected ego. If the ego is not reflected out and contained within to see the
God within then it will lose its sheen and it will lose its negative traits
fully. The eighth reflected ego i.e., the one that one expressed by
manifestation of senses outwardly is
only visible to the naked eyes. This reflected ego is impregnated with
negative traits fully i.e., TamoGuna.
The visible and
reflected water is one of the treated and tainted Pancha Mahabhootas. This
water is the replica of Ganga. Bheeshma represents Abhasa chaitanya or
reflected Ego.
Ganga throws seven
sons into the river. These.seven sons are the the seven consciousnesses that
are not visible to the naked eye.
Man is having 72,000 subtle nadis.
Three nadis, Ida, Pingala & Sushumna
nadis, are very important amongst these 72,000 subtle nadis. Ida exists on the
left side of Merudanda, Spinal Cord.
Pingala Subtle nadi exists on the right side of Merudanda. Sushumna exists in
the middle of Merudanda. All these Subtle nadis exist in the Merudanda.
These Ida, Pingala
& Sushumna subtle nadis travel together from Mooladhara nearer to the Anus,
and upto Kootastha in the middle of the eyebrows on the forehead. Here Ida and
Pingala both will halt. Only Sushumna travels alone upto Sahasrara Chakra
underneath the Brahma Randhra in the Centre top of the head.
In the Physical Merudanda, Spinal cord, there exists
Sushumna. In side Sushumna exists Vajra. In side Vajra Chitra exists.
Some more subtle
nadis are given below:
Poosha
|
On both the sides
of ear holes.
|
Gandhari,
Hastijihva
|
On both the sides
of eye holes

Saraswati

Kapidhwaja:
The Flag emblem of
Arjun is Monkey, Hanuman.
Kapi means Mind,
Manas, in Sanskrit. Mind exists in the Head. So Dhwajam, Flag, is the replica
of Merudanda, the Spinal cord. Mind dwells on the top of Spinal cord.. the
Sadhak should steady the mind which lies on the top of the flag.
The sadhak should
apply monkey face that means he should apply Khechari Mudra as instructed by
Guru and then shall do Kriyayogadhyana. While doing Kriya the Sadhak shall
rotate the life force from Mooladhara to Agna Positive Chakra in Kootastha, the
place between the Eye brows through the Spinal Cord, the Merudanda, So doing he
will magetize the Spinal cord. . this is what is the meaning of Kapidhwaja.

Sanjaya said:
Oh, King
Dhritarashtra, having said by Arjuna, Krishna has incorporated that Great
Chariot in the middle of the two armies juxtaposed to Bheeshma, Drona and all
the kings and said: Oh, Arjuna, behold these Kauravas gathered here.
Gudakesa: A very cautious Sadhak who is victorious over
TamoGun, Negative quality.
Hrisheekesa means
Manas, the king of Indriyas, the senses.
The Spinal Cord
should be straight and erect without any dent. The Sadhak should make intensive
efforts to steady the mind. The sadhak
should fly his Flag viz., self control.
Kapi i.e., apply Khecharee Mudra before contemplating for Meditation.
The spinal cord is Dhwajam. The gaze is to be fixed on the Chakras lest the
unwanted thoughts will engulf the thoughts and drag the sadhak to the senses.
When the gaze is
fixed in Kootastha then only the Sadhak will be able to annihilate Bheeshma the
Ego, Drona the Habits, and the rest of the devilish qualities of Kauravas
within him by controlling his mind.
Sadhak has to break
three Grandhis, Brahma, Rudra & Vishnu.
The First Granthi
Brahma Granthi extends from Mooladhara to Manipura in Kurukshetra region of the
Spinal Cord. This Granthi pertains to
Human consciousness. It entangles only in Physical sense pleasures as such it will cause some physical
impediment or the other to the Meditator during his Meditation and shall not
allow his Sadhana to continue. Since the inception of the Physical problems
exist as such we chant ‘’ADI BHAUTIKA SHANTI’’. For Adibhaitika Shanti Right
Posture is required.
The second Granthi
i.e., Rudra Grsnthi extends from top of the Manipura to Visuddha Chakra in
Krukshetra—Dharmakshetra region of the Spinal Cord.. This Granthi leads the
mind to thoughts and shall not allow the Sadhak to continue his Sadhana.
The one that is without physical body (Sthoola
sareera) but having Subtle(Sookshma) and dea bodies( Karana) is called Devi or Devata if it having good qualities,
and Devil if it is having bad qualities.
Mind is also Subtle
body. From the time of inception of Mind it is havind thoughts. So these
thoughts obstruct Sadhana. That is the reason we say’’ADI BHAUTIKA SHANTI’’.
Mental stability is essential for For AdiDaivika Shanti.
The third & last
Granthi is Vishnu Granthi. This extends from top of Visuddha and upto Sahasraa
in Dharmakshetra region. When the awakened Kundalini goes further from Visuddha
the body will have levitating effect. The Mediatator gets up from Sadhana out
of fear. From the time of inception
of Karana Sareera these obstructions are
natural to this body. That is the reason
we say’’ADHYATMIKA SHANTI’’. The grace and kindness of God the almighty is
essential for for Adhyatmika Shanti.
Gudakesa means the
Sadhak who is always ready to overcome Maya without sleepyness &lethargyness. This sort of
Body of Sadhaka is called great Chariot.
Likewise the Sadhaks
who have readied their bodies for good
Sadhana are respectively called Atiratha and Maharatha.

Sanjaya spoke thus:--
Then Arjuna has seen
the fathers, grand fathers, teachers,
maternal uncles, brothers, sons, grandsons, friends, fathers-in-law, well
wishers, all together.
Having seen all those relatives fully well,
Arjuna with heavy heart and wailing:spoke like thus:
The relatives so
gathered there are all the negative and positive forces within the Sadhak.
when man is
completely involved in mundane or material affairs and impregnated with sense
pleasures then he will not recognize the God behind that intelligence. This state is called Nakaratmaka sthiti,
Negative state.
When man controls his
sleep, self control, and overcomes material and Physical pains is the
Sakaratmakasthti, Gudakesa sthiti.
Pritha is sobriquet
for Kunti. She is the representative
of Patience & Peace. Partha
is the son of Pritha. Partha means the Sadhak who controls his mind and
prepares himself towards spirituality, stock barrel and gun. This is the state
of Arjuna. In this state the Sadhak shall
be getting peace & tranquility now and then.
Beejakshara chanting
in Chakras and other techniques the
Consciousness of Sadhak shall get concentrated on Chakras. This is the state of
beatitude and selfrealization. This is still Duality State, Dwaita Sthiti.. The state in which the sadhak get united with
Parabrahman is the last and final state, Adwata Sthiti
Grand parents,
Parents, are the replicas for ‘ I ,Mine, Me’. That is they represent
Selfishness and Ego.
Virtue and vice both
are powerful. Grand parents and Parents
both may be good or bad.
Drupada is the
replica of Santi and sahishnuta i.e., peace and patience.
The outgoing force of
life energy at he base of spine in the Mooladhara(Coccyx plexu)Chakra is called
Kundalini. The Kundalini serpent force
runs down through a circular passage coiled like a snake into the nerves. Only
by super psychu-physical methods like Kriya yoga practice of awakening the
Mooladhara one can possibly control the sex consciousness wholly by withdrawing
this Kundalini force and to flow towards the brain. This kundalini life force is called
Draupadi, the daughter of Drupada.
The collective
delusion is called Maya. The individualized delusion is called illusion or
Kundalini. Maya is related to Macro and Kundalini is related to Micro..
Gateway:
The Kundalini passage
is called the Gate way of the life force at the base of the spine. The Kundalini gateway is responsible for
flooding the life current from the soul region of the different senses of
sight, touch, smell, taste, and hearing including the earth bound physical
creative force of sex.
The sleeping
Kundalini:
The life force
flowing down from the Medulla oblongata through the spinal centres and
especially through the coiled Kundalini gateway at the Mooladhara is called
‘sleeping Kundalini because it serves as the medium to establish communication
with and to draw the attention of the ego to the body senses, sex, and the
material world.
The Kundalini
awakening:the life current while retiring or relaxing from the muscles, heart
and sensory motor nerves through the passage in the Mooladhara region and
produces a remarkable spiritual and physical sensation which is called Kundalini awakening.
The sleeping
kundalini is to be awakened and shoukd be made to return to Sahasrara Chakra
through Kriyayoga Sadhana.
Crossing of
Mooladhara(Sahadeva), Swadhisthana (Nakula), Manipura(Arjuna), Anahata (Bheema)
and Visuddha(Yudhisthira) by the awakened Kundalini is called Draupadi marrying
five husbands.
This Draupadi is
nature. Five Pandavas are Pancha Mahabhutas viz., Akasa, Vayu, Agni, Water and
Prithvi.
The Upapandavas, Five
sons of Five Pandavas,are the devine powers emanated when the awakened
kundalini crosses the Chakras viz., Mooladhara, Swadhishtana, Manipura, Anahata
and Visuddha respectively.
The negative powers
are related to the Ida Subtle nadi on the left side of Sushumna in the Spinal
Cord, and The Positive powers are related to the Pingala Subtle nadi on the
right side of Sushumna in the Spinal Cord. The negative powers are Kauravas and
Positive powers are Pandavas and their respective armies.
Habits are the Gurus
or teachers, that show the path. Habits or Samskaras may be good or bad.
Good and Bad are the
offsprings of Habits. Good and Bad are the well wishers and bad wishers. The
sons and Grandsons are good and Bad habits are only again.

Seing these relatives of mine gathered here to
fight, my limbs are losing their strength.
My mouth is becoming dry. My bow Gandeevam is slipping out of my hand. My body is burning. I am not having strength
to stand erect. My mind is whirling.
The Sadhak who is
intense in his Sadhana is narrating his experiences to his Guru preceptor.
So far these limbs
are addicted to physical pleasures and are accustomed to behave whimsically are
now made to go inward to do Yoga Sadhana. These lazy limbs are experiencing
physical problems to follow self control. With the chanting of OMKAR my mouth
has become dry. Whether I cango forward
or not in this Spiritual Kriyayoga Sadhana is what is in my mind now. This
mental weakness creeped into my mind now. My bow Gandeevam i.e., my Spinal cord
is bending in stead of becoming straight. As such my resolve to have self
control and to get out of sense pleasures is defeating. With the lack of steadiness
in Meditation my Skin i.e., Mental Consciosness is burning. Here burning means
defeating. Oh, Kesava, the killer of negative forces, I am doubtful about my
victory over these negative forces that are against my Sadhana. With these
worried thoughts my mind is whirling. .

O Krishna, I am even
seing the bad omens. I am unable to percept the benefit of killing these
relatives of mine in this war..
Om kar is like an
arrow. The chanting of OM is like the arrow of Srirama called RAMBAAN. This
Raambaan is unparallel and the most powerful one. It will not go waste without
kill.. Likewise the chanted Om will not
be futile. That will definitely kill the negative forces in this universe.
To utlize Swasa, the
Breath, as a weapon is called SWASTRA. In usage the Swastra has become
gradually came to be known as Sastra.
With the investment
of Swasa, Breath, and to get the kingdom of God
is Varagya. When Sadhak is not
getting progress the Sadhak will be worrying. The above narration is his predicament during this state.
‘In spite of
controlling the sense pleasures whether the sadhak will get beatitude or not?’
is the main grouse of Sadhak.. Over and
above Physical body pains etc., and mental thought problems that are bothering
the sadhak made him to think about the utility of Sadhana.
This predicament is
akin to a student who is unable to solve a mathematical equation .
Then student will think that mathematics is a useless subject. But with
incessant efforts he can overcome the problem.

Oh Krishna, I don’t

is the usefulness of such Kingdom, pleasures or or even the continuance of
life?
O Govinda(he who presides over and is in
control of the ‘’çows’ of senses)? The
very ones for whose sake we desire empire, enjoyment, pleasure, remain poised
here for battle, ready to relinquish wealth and life—preceptors, fathers, sons,
grandfathers, uncles, fathers-in-law, grandsons, brothers-in-law, and other
kinsmen.
This is the main
worry that haunts the Sadhak.
Taata(Grand father)
means Antahkarana, Tandri(Father) means
Senses, and pautra(Grandson) means Desires, maatulaah(maternal uncles) means
Habits, swasuraah(Fathers-in-law) means Sense Pleasures.
If all these things
die then who will enjoy the Kingdom of God which is yet to come.

Madhusoodan means the remover of the Ignorance
or impediments of Spirituality. This the state of the Sadhak who is fed up with
the problems that are being faced by the Sadhak during Sadhana.
After crossing the
three worlds, Physical, Subtle and Idea Bodies, the Sadhak will enter into the
Kingdom of God. this will be obtained by the Sadhak who does sadhana with great intensity, longuivity,
and great incompassion. When he fails in
this then he would like to satisfy himself with the sense pleasures available
within his reach. .
With a resolve to
come first amongst all students in his class but when he fails then his
predicament will be like this.
Nihatya

Janarardanaa means
the fulfiller of right wants of devotees.
Oh Krishna, what
happiness could we gain by killing them? We will get sin only by killing these
Duryodhana clan even if they are evil minded.
Duryodhan is the
replica of kaamam, desires. The failing Sadhaka thinks wrongly that these
Arishadwargaas viz., Kama(Desires), Krodha(Anger), Lobha(greediness),
Moha(delusion), Mada(pride) and Matsarya(Jealousy) have been created by
Parabrahman for mankind only. There is nothing wrong in enjoying them.
Sthoola, Sookshma and
Karana lokas(worlds) are called Tripuras. Destroying them,the Sadhaka will
enter into the eternal God Kingdom. For
that intensive Sadhana is essential. The one who is unable to do so shall say differently.
Sheaths(KOSAS):
Annamayakosam:
The manifestation
of 24 tatwas from tainted Panchamahabhutaasas lead to SthoolaShareera or
Physical body. This is called the Annamayakosa.
Five Sense organs (Gnaanen driyas), five organs of Action(Karmendriyas),
Five Pranas, Pancha Tanmatras and AntahKarana are together constitute Physical
Body.
Tanmatra means
Power. Akaasha has Shabda(Sound), Vayu or Air has Sparsha(Touch), Agni or Fire
has Roopa(configuration), Jal or water has Rasa(taste) and Prithvi or Earth has
Gandha(Smell). .
PraanaMayaKosa:
The untainted five
Pranas in Subtle body and five Karmendriyas together constitute PranamayaKosa.
Manomayakosa:
Five sense organs
in the Subtle body, manas(mind) and Chittam together constitute Manomayakosa.
Vignaanamayakosa:
Five sense organs
in the Subtle body, Ahamkar(Ego) and determining Buddhi together constitute
Vignaanamayakosa.
Pranamaya, manomaya
and Vignanamayakosas or sheaths together are called Sookshma Shareera.
Anandamayakosa:
Untainted Panchamaha
bhootas and Three Gunas, Satwa, raja and Tamo, are called Avidya or
Ignorance.and this is called Karana Shareera.
This is called Anandamayakosa.
Avasthas or States:
Jagratavastha:
Cosmic Consciousness
or Brahmachetana enters Karanashareera, from Karana to Sookshma, and from
Sookshma to Sthoola shareera and then making all these three Shareeras
Conscious is called Jagratavastha or waking state
Swapnavastha:
Cosmic Consciousness
or Brahmachetana enters Karanashareera, from Karana to Sookshma, and then making these two Shareeras Conscious
is called Swapnavastha or Avachetanavastha. The Jagratavastha remains
unconscious..
Sushuptiavastha:
Cosmic Consciousness
or Brahmachetana enters Karanashareera, making it Conscious is called
Sushuptiavastha, Thureeyavastha, Adhichetanavastha or Superconscious
state. The remaining Sookshma and
Sthoola remain unconscious..
The God in Creation
is called Krishna Consciousness or Shuddha Satwa Maya.
The Consciousness in
Creation, three conscious –nesses,
karana, sookshma and Sthoola in Macro, and three consciousnesses, karana, sookshma and Sthoola in Micro, are
manifested as seven consciousnesses.
These are not visible to the physical and ordinary eye.
Due to the influence
of Tamoguna Karanashareera will have Mala and Avarana Doshas, and because of
Rajoguna vikshepana Dosha.
When a Lantern chimney is painted by Black
smoke then the burning wick cannot be visible. Likewise due to Maladosha the
Paramatma within us becomes invisible.
We will mistake the
rope as Snake due to superimposition of
darkness. So Avarana dosha or
fault occurs due to Tamoguna ignorance of unsteady mind.
Love and hatred, selfishness, love, affection,
kindness, Happiness, Contentment, dissatisfaction, Kama, krodha, Lobha, Moha,
Mada and Matsarya etc are the vikshepana doshas. This is due to ego.
Due to Mala, Avarana
and Vikshepana doshas the Karana shareera will have 1) body attachment i.e.,
kartritwadoshas, 2)attachment towards Finance, Offspring, and spouse, fame
mongerism, 3) interest in Sastras, and 4) worldly attachment. Because of this man will have Asmita,
Ragadwesha and Abhinivesa.
Asmita means Ego,
Ragadwesaha means attraction and repulsion, Abhinivesha means attachment to his
body.

Oh Krishna, we are
not eligible to kill Kauravas, our relations. How can we be happy by killing
our own relatives.
Sadhak is doubtful of
the happiness he can get by shedding Kaama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada and
Matsarya.
For our doings habits
are the root cause. The man who is accustomed to sense pleasures by default of
habits will try to overcome them with will power to start Kriya Yoga Sadhana.
Drunkard will try to drink with some pretext
or the other. Likewise the Sadhak who became weak in Sadhana will be seeking
one pretext or the other to drop.

Oh Krishna, Even if these
Kauravas are eclipsed by greed and do not see the calamity that comes out of
destroying the families or lineages, and behold no sin in the atrocities
commited to friends, should we not avoid this sin—we who vividly understand
these things.
Paapam and Punyam, Sin & virtue, both are
the creations of Maya the delusion which is under the control of Paramatma.
Arishadwargaas (Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada and Matsarya) are the
offsprings of senses. The senses work through Mind. They some times may
manifest preposterously. Just because of this if we annihilate them then how
misery and happiness will be expressed. We who have the discernment should
commit the same sin. With this thinking the Sadhak feels that both the things
i.e., yielding to Sense pleasures and Sadhana for understanding good and bad,
are required. It is akin to taking
poison and its inimical nector simultaneously..
Out of all the
allurements, unsteady mind is very bad one. This will make you to get attracted
to the worldy affairs and make you fully ignorant about God. if we do gradual
and incessant Sadhana then we will always remain in God.
Vice has got its own
power. When man yields to allurement
then his discrimination or wisdom will be its captive. Wants are the most undesirable enemies to
man. If you go on satisfying the senses
then they will go on asking for more and more desires. It is an uphill task to
fully satisfy the senses.man is not senses, they are his slaves only. Man is
not slave to senses. Man in reality is
Soul that is beyond the senses.
Allurement is not the
creation of Man. It is due to Maya which is under the control of Parabrahman.
All men are affected by its spell. To come out of its clutches God has given
Antaratma and will power to man to overcome this Maya.
Due to body attachment and sense pleasures Man forgets Soul. This is called allurement or illusion. This
is sugarcoated poison. Mundane happiness is naught compared the attainment of
Kingdom of God which happiness is
eternal. This eternal beatitude that man attains is not comparable with
anything. This is indescribable. One day or the other Man has to turn towards
God. why not that day be today? We are the children of the God. that is why God
has given us the power to meditate.

O Krishna, with the
destruction of pedigree, the age-old religious customs will fade away. With the destruction of righteousness,
unrighteousness will spread in the clan. With the spreading of unrighteousness, the chastity in women will
get damaged. With this, bastardy or
adultery takes place amongst the castes.then the adulterater and the
adulterer both will go to hell.. Then
their ancestors are denied the oblations of rice-Ball and water, and are
degraded and go to low nadirs. .
Varshneaya means
skillful, powerful and strong.
Janaardana means the
one who listens to the prayers of devotees.
Many doubts, small
and preposterous, shall be arising during Sadhana.
Five sense organs,
five Action organs, five Five Tanmatras, Five Pranas, and Antahkarana, together
are called Kulam(Caste). The castes and their rites are given below:
Five sense organs:
Ear, Skin, Eye, Tongue and Nose.
Five Action Organs: Mouth, Feet, Palms,
Phallus and Anus.
Five Tanmatras:
Hearing power, Touching power, Seeing power, Tasting power and Smelling power.
Five Pranas:
Prana(Crystallization),
Apana (Elimination),
Vyaana(Circulation),
samana(Assimilation) and
Udana(Metabalization)
Antahkarana:
Manas(Mind), Buddhi(Intellect), Chittam(sphere of thinking) and Ahamkaar(Ego).
If they are not put
to use during or because of Sadhana, they will become idle and will become
useless. The lust will die in men and hence due to the unfulfilment of lust,
the women will be spoiled. Sadhak raises
a preposterous and mundane logical doubt.
Controlling lust does
not mean to become a neuter.
Ladies will have more
feeling than logic. Gents will have more logic than feeling. But this may be
otherway around in Men and women. In that case a man is more feminine than logical, or a woman may be more logical
than feminine.
In a couple one
should have feeling and the counterpart should have logic. Otherwise this lead
to problems. This is what they see in Horoscopes while fixing the matches
amongst Hindus. For example if the offspring of a couple had met with an injury
and if she is bleeding, then the one who is having feeling in the parents will
give succour and the other will take the child to the Doctor. If both the
husband and wife are having feeling, then both will be hugging the child and
crying and no one will take the child to
the Doctor. If both are logical then both will be orguing about the Doctor to
whom the child is to be taken and waste time in the orgumets. No one will take
the child to the Doctor. So one should
be having feeling and the other will have logic.
With Meditation the
mind will go within. With the innergoing
Antahkarana Man will be able to understand the extraordinary powers of Senses.
Manas, Buddhi,
Chittam and Ahamkaar are our ancestors.
Tarpanam means inward
turned Pranashakti or Life Force.
Doing Spiritual
Kriyayoga Sadhana with regularity, interest, longuity and intensity are called
Rice-balls or Pindokaas.
These oblations,
Rice-balls will make the senses more and more sensitive. The mind that does not
turn inwards shall not be rewarded with wonderful God power. Without God power the senses will gradually
become weak.
The unutilzed Iron
will become rusted. Likewise the senses will also become useless is what the
Sadhak foolishly think.
The root cause of all
these doubts is desire i.e., Duryodhana. The Yogi who is intense in Meditation,
shall control the out going life
force through Senses, make it inwards, directs it to Kootastha, the
place between the eye brows, through the Spinal cord, and finally gets the
appearance of third eye, Jyoti Darshan.
These are the real

O Krishna, the
misdeeds i.e., the admixture of castes created
by these destroyers of lineages, the age-old rites of the castes and
clan are mitigated..Often we have heard
that men devoid of family religious rites are most certainly committed to
reside indefinitely in hell.
Our ancestors means Jeevaatma comprising of
Antahkarana i.e., Manas, Buddhi, Chittam and Ahamkar.
Senses are its
Offsprings.
Wants or desires are
the offsprings of the senses.
The individual works
that are being done by the respective senses is what we do for the satisfaction
of Antahkarana, the so called Tarpanas or oblations.
Sadhak In Samadhi
i.e., in the unision of soul with Spirit, shall put a full stop to these
oblations. This is how the aspiring
sadhak shall think of wrongly.
In fact during
Samadhi the out going life force through the senses is made to take a return
path to the Cosmos through Sushumna in the spinal Cord and through Chakras.
In this process we
concentrate all these outgoing life forces in Kootastha by making them inward.
There in Kootastha the Sadhak will see Jyoti, the effulgent third eye. These
are the real Tarpanams or Oblations we offer to Soul.
Chakradhyan (Meditation in Chakras):--
Sit erect in
Vajrasana, Padmasana or Sukhaasana with Gnaana Mudra. Press top of index finger
with top of thumb and keep the rest of the fingers straight. Face East or
North. Get relaxed. Put your gaze fixed in Kootastha. The feet should not touch the ground directly
. Sadhak should wear Cotton socks. For
better results bend your neck backwards. That is sit in super conscious level.
Apply Khechari Mudra.
Now learn Kriya Yoga
from an experienced and self realized Yogi.
doing Kriyayoga go to Sahasraara.
One breath-in and one
breath-out together constitutes one HAMSA.
Ordinarily a healthy
man will make 21,600 Hamsas in a day.
This amounts to 15 Hamsas per minute.
If a man does 15
Hamsas per minute he is called Bhogi.
If he does more than
15 Hamsas per minute he is called Rogi.
If he does less than 15 Hamsas per minute he is called Yogi.
Tortoise does less than
15 Hamsas per day. If no body kills it will live more than 1000Years.
Yogi increases his
life span with the control of life force. So controlling life force, yogi will
be healthy and will unite with Parabrahman.
Castes:--
The chakras in the
Spinal cords are like Junction
Boxes.
The Cosmic
Consciousness enters Sahasrara through Medulla oblongata. From there it will be directed to Agna
Positive, Agna negative, Visuddha, Anahata, Manipura, Swadhisthana and
Moolaadhara Chakras, the junction Boxes. From there the Cosmic Consciousness
enters into Nerve Centres, Nerves, and then to pertinent organs.
Visuddha, Anahata,
Manipura, Swadhisthana and Moolaadhara Chakras are called Castes.
Sadhak awakens the
Kundalini Force lying underneath the Mooladhara Chakra with his Kriya Yoga
Sadhana. The Chakra upto which his awakened Kundalini reaches shall decide his
caste.
The one who does not
do yoga sadhana at all is called Sudra. His kundalini is in a sleeping state.he
is said to be in Kaliyuga. His heart is considered to be Black. He is in completely ignorant state.
When the man starts
Kriyayoga Sadhana, then his sleeping Kundalini gradually awakens. If the
awakened Kundalini reaches and touches
Mooladhara Chakra, he is considered to be a Kshatriya, Warrior group. He
will resist the forces that oppose his Meditation. He continues to be in
Kaliyuga. His heart is considered to be Vibrant.
When the awakened
Kundalini touches Swadhistaana Chakra then he is considered to be Dwija which
means he has taken another bierth. He is considered to be in Dwaparayuga. His
heart is considered to be Devouted..
When the awakened
Kundalini touches Manipura Chakra then he is considered to be Vipra which means
he is ready to study Veda. Veda means to hear. So he is ready to hear OMKAR.. He
is considered to be in Tretayuga. His
heart is considered to be steady.
When the awakened
Kundalini touches Anahata Chakra then he is considered to be Brahmin which
means he starts hearing OMKAR.. He is
considered to be in Kritayuga or Satyayuga.
His heart is considered to be Clean.
In this way the
castes viz., Sudra, Dwija, Vipra and Brahmin are formed. They are gradually
came to known as Sudra, Kshatriya ,Vaishya, and Brahmin castes. The castes are
formed as per the progressed achieved in Yoga Sadhana.
Gradually the castes
are determined by biological birth
instead of progress in Yoga Sadhana. By and by several subcastes have been
carved out of the main castes. This way several castes have come into
existence. This has resulted in causing danger to the Unity, integration and
safety of the country.

Eight types of
marriages:
1) Braahmamu: The
marriage that is solemnized with the mutual consent of bride and bridegroom
witnessed by elders of both sides.
2) Daivam: The
marriage that is solemnized with the mutual consent of elders from both sides.
3)AArshamu: Marriage
that is solemnized by taking dowry from the bride.
4) Praajaapatyamu:
Wife is essential to do Sacrices(yagna). Marriage that is solemnized to meet
this requirement.
5) Aasuramu: For the
benefit and safety of king, Marriage that is solemnized by giving financial
assistance both bride and bridegroom.
6) Gaandharvamu:
Marriage that is solemnized due to mutual love amongst both bride and
bridegroom with or without the consent of elders of both sides and without following any customs, conditions
and timings.
7) Raakshasam:
Marriage that is solemnized by forcibly taking away the bride.
8) paishachikam:
Marriage that is solemnized by administering intoxicants to the bride and
marrying her while she is insane.
The Sadhak who is
unable to go ahead with his Sadhana will advance more and more faulty orguments
in this way.
Habituated to sense
pleasres, the senses shall motivate the nerve centres and nerves to do the
needed. During Sadhana the Sadhak shall control the senses. the controlled
senses may not be able to activate the nerves and nerve centres. If I am not
successful in Sadhana then the facility of enjoying mundane pleasures also has
to be lost. So I will be on loser from both sides. This is the main doubts that
arises in the sadhak. For a futuristic beatitude in sadhana, it is sin and not
wise to discard sense pleasures. It is better to subjugate to senses even
though they engulf me with their weapons, sense plesures. I will not utilize my
weapons viz., sitting straight with
erect spine and fixing the gaze in kootastha etc., for Kriya yoga Sadhana. This
is what Sadhak wrongly feels.
In fact the blind
mind(Dhritaraashtra) cannot be satisfied, however amount one may use ones
senses for Mundane pleasures.

despaired. This sort of despondency is
for normal mundane beings. You are making tremendous yoga Sadhana to get into kingdom of God. The devilish and cruel negative forces
within you i.e., Kurrus are about to be defeated with this Sadhana. At this
time where from this despondency has come? Don’t be disheartened.

house and made the adopted house has her own house and has accepted to treat
another as her father instead of biological father. As such she is the replica
of Vairagya i.e., dispassion. Arjuna is
the son of that Kunti, dispassion.

Negative forces.

beginning. In Train travel we could see the trees etc on the surface of both
sides of the Railway tracks. We are not that frightend thinking that we are on
the surface of the earth.
The Physical ego
gradually annihilates and the Sadhak goes on getting the depth in the Sadhana.
This state is what is called killing of Bheeshma i.e., the ego is gradually
weakens and self confidence becomes fortified.
The next step is the
annihilation of Habits, samskaras, which is called killing of Drona. In this
stage Devine Consciousness will be fortified overcoming the Human consciousness.
In this state the Human consciousness will not be mitigated fully. The Sadhak
will be thinking that he is losing something valuable. Hence he orgues with
Madhusudana, the killer of Ignorance, about
this doubt.

Ego and Habits are
Gurus, preceptors, for a normal man. If they are mummified then how one can
enjoy the fortunes of sense pleasures in case of losing the game of Yoga
Sadhana. with non cooperation of the ego and habits. Weak Sadhak will advance this orgument.

In the primary stages
of Education, the student can not understand the utility of Education. Hence
with his primitive mind set he thinks that these elders are not allowing him to
play with unnecesasary objections.
In thie initial
stages of Sadhana this sort of doubts naturally arise. Likewise when there is
lack of spiritual progress, the Sadhak gets doubt as to which is better—to
succumb to sense pleasure or to seek the Kingdom of God. So he seeks the
shelter of his Guru—the inner soul.

The Jeeva(self or
embodied soul) has to pass through Childhood, youth, and old age. It is
natural. Similarly the Jeeva passes into
another body after death. So wise men should not grieve for this.
The explanation for the above three verses:
The deeds of senses
are not real and eternal. The Sadhak feels that he is extending an intelligent
logic. In fact he is displaying his ignorance.
As the Sadhak
advances in his Yoga Sadhana he will gradually realizes the unimportance,
unreality and impermanency of the senses and their deeds and their inability to
do anything to the real and eternal Kingdom of God. they simply die down.
The kings i.e., the
Senses, and their kingdoms i.e., impermanent Sense pleasures do exist as long
as this Creation exists.. They exist withn the body itself but not
elsewhere.
Energy is eternal. It
can neither be created nor canbe destroyed. Only one form of Energy can be
transformed into another form of Energy. That is why we see different forms of
Energy or Energy in different forms. Everything is Energy configuration only.
We are all the forms of Energy only not the bodies. Our Race is called MAANAVA in Sanskrit. Maa
means NOT. Nava menas NEW. So we were existing in the Past(Bhoota), we are
existing in the Present(Vartamaan) and we will be existing in
Future(Bhavishyat). These bodies are not eternal in the Creation sense. So it
is meaningless to get agitated about death.

energy and get it united with Parabrahman at the end.
VILOMAPADDHATI:-- To
see God as always changeable creation. This
is not the correct way. In this, we get Energy from God and express it
out/without by spending through Senses. This will lead us to be absorbed in
ignorance by and by.

He Arjun, even if you

should not grieve for it.
If the Sadhak is still
afraid of body problems, diseases and death, that means he is still not
advanced in his Sadhana.
The Sadhak who
obtains Samadhi, the union with Parabrahman, perceives that he is omnipotent,
omnipresent and omniscient.
Even though Soul is
said to be steady, outwardly it appears as though it is manifested in each and
every human being.
We dream as though we
fought and killed ten tigers with bare hands. When we come out of the sleep
then we find ourselves lying calmly on the cot.
Likewise the dream of
Soul is this body. In deep meditation and in deep sleep as well, the Soul will
remain in its steady state.

KARMA is of three
types. They are: Sanchita, Prarabdha and Agaami.
Sanchita Karma: As
one cannot spendthe whole harvest in a day. He keeps his Harvest in a granary
which will be utilized later. Likewise the deeds/acts we do invite Good or Bad
Karma. They will go on accumulating birth after birth that has/have to be
experiencd later. Such accumulated Karma is called Sanchita Karma,
Prarabdha Karma: we bring some Karma from the accumulated
Sanchita for spending for the present. This is called Prarabdha Karma. The
amount mentioned in the Bank cheque given to somebody cannot be altered by
anybody except the giver that too before making it into cash. Likewise this
Prarabdha Karma can be altered as good or bad by the experiencer only.
Aagaami Karma: The karma we do in the present, good or
bad, will be accumulated to be in use
for future.
In the syllogism of
God, one has to experience Good and Bad separately later.
One has to completely
finish his these three Karmas, till then he will be rotated through the cycle
of Birth and Death. One has to cross Physical, Subtle, amd Idea bodies thro
Kriya Yoga Sadhana. Till then he has to undergo pleasure and displeasure. This
is possible only in Nirvikalpa Samadhi or Maha Samadhi.
To shed Physical body
is called Physical death. Physical death means to take birth in Subtle world.
The Subtle death means to take birth in Physical world. Till the annihilation
of Ignorance, one has to shuttle between Physical and Subtle worlds and
viceversa. It is inevitable.

is not real, the dream of Para brahman is also
not real.

One is beholding this
Self/Soul with bewilderment, one is talking about it as bewildered one, and
likewise one is hearing about it as a bewildered one. In spite of beholding, talking and hearing
about it with bewilderment, none of them
comprehends it correctly.
The description of
third eye in Kootastha, the place between the eye brows in the centre of fore
head, is given below:
In deep and intensive
Meditation yogi will experience Soul or self in Kootastha as a great
effulgence, pure Wis dom,
and Ohm sound. This is called THIRD EYE.
However amount of spiritual discouses
one may hear and may read, he cannot a vivid experience. Only through Kriya
yoga Dhyana one will gain real experience.
In third eye with
deep Dhyaana the sadhak may behold a
Triangle.
On Top the Sadhak
will see White(Po sitive), Red color on left
side, and on left side Black color.
If white is predominant then the Satwik is
dominating in the consciousness of Yogi, Red is predominant then the Rajo
i.e., Neutral is dominating, and if
Black is predominant then the Tamo i.e., negative is dominating,
If all these colours
of the Triangle is equally predominant the the consciousness of Yogi is in
equanimous state. Yogi should
incessantly make efforts to obtain this equanimous state.
Man will have two
types of wis dom
from the inception of birth.
1)Logic power that
arises from senses.This is called Manava chetana or human consciousness,
2) Cosmic power that
comes from Para bbrahman. This is called
Paramatma chetana or Cosmic consciousness.

else.
The castes viz.,
Brahman, Kshatriya, Vaisya, and Sudra, are formed or determined according to
the qualities but not as per the biological birth.
Man who is a Slave of
senses, doer of hard work, or dependent on Physical body is called Sudra.
When a man Makes
efforts for wisdom, removal of ignorance, and turn towards Spirituality, is
called Vaisya
A man who resists his
inner enemies, improves self confidence, and inclined towards Spirituality, is
called kshatriya.
A man who makes contact
with Para brahman with intense Meditation is
called Brahman.

The one who does not

The one who

Kshatriya.

The senses are

He Arjun, the ones
who are interested in those parts of Veda that leads to good results, the ones
who orgue that there is no other result mentioned in Vedas except getting Heaven,
The ones whose minds
are filled with sense pleasures, the small ones that are interested to get
Heaven and nothing else, that entagles the people into birth and Karma, or such
results, that contains several acts and deeds in order to obtain mundane
physical sense pleasures, useless words that are being spoken, the people
occupied with that mind sets, the people trusting those words and then opting
for enjoyment of senses like eye, ear etc, such people will not have
determined one pointed mind of
concentration towards Parabrahman i.e., Samadhi(unision with God)
Rigveda is the first
amongst Four Vedas. The other three Vedas, Yajurveda, Saamaveda, and
Atharvaveda, came out of this.
Three things are very
important in Vedas. They are:
1)Samhita: it is like
a tree. Consists of hymns(Mantras).
2)Braahmanas: it is
like a flower. Yagna(Sacrifice) with
hymns. To perform Yagna in accordance with Hymns.
3)Aranyakas: it is
like fruit. It narrates about how to cross the barrier between Para (Cosmic Consciousness) and Apara(Human
consciousness).
4)Upanishad: Essen ce of that Veda. Go within and get united with Para brahman. This is what the Upanishad states.
Vedas teach us to
start with worshipping the Nature and its physical forces, and ends with
unision with God, the almighty. This is taught in degrees. The physical, Mental
, and spiritual evolution of Man into God is taught gradually by Vedas.
Vedas are devided
into Karmakanda and gnaanakanda.
Karmakanda: What the
Man has to do on the physical plane is expatiated. This is called Po orva Meemaamsa.
Gnanakanda: How to recognize
God and get united with HIM with pure wis dom
is explained. This is called Uttara Meemamsa.
Ordinary people will
simply follow only Karmakanda and make efforts to obtain Physical pleasures
which are small in nature.
Men of wis dom will make huge efforts to get united with Para brahman which is considered to be the noblest and
several times greater than small Physical pleasure.

beyond them. Incessantly follow the pure Satwik quality and become an
embodiment of soul wis dom.

do not be an endeavourer in not contemplating works even.
The concentration of student should be on
studies only and not on anything else. He should not keep in mind about getting
a job in future as a result for his studies.
Likewise the gaze of Sadhak should be fixed in Kootastha only and do Sadhana with intensity and longevity
without contemplating for any result.

Like a tortoise
withdraws its limbs inwards, when a yogi
completely withdraws his senses from sense objects from everywhere, then his wis dom is said to be
highly settled.
Mind only sees,
tastes, talks, smells, and thinks. Mind is the main instrument behind
everything. Mind has to be conjoined with life force to get any work done.
If the mind of Sadhak
is combined with the life force on Mooladharachakra (Prithvee tatwa) then smell
can be grasped. Then as per the choice of ind ividuls one will have likings for
cosmetic smells, and food aromas etc.
If the mind of Sadhak
is combined with the life force on Swadhistaanachakra (Jalatatwa) then one will have likings or attachments for
tastes.
If the mind of Sadhak
is combined with the life force on Manipurachakra (Agnitatwa) then one will have likings or attachments for
panoramic things like cinema etc.
If the mind of Sadhak
is combined with the life force on Anaahatachakra (Vayutatwa) then one will have likings or attachments for
women etc.
If the mind of Sadhak
is combined with the life force on Visuddhachakra (Aakaasatatwa) then one will have likings or attachments for
songs, Music etc.
A person with diabetes disease should not take
sweets even if he wanted. But how to control his weakness? With Pranayama
techniques he can withdraw his mind and life force from Swadhistaanachakra so
that he can wean his mind away from sweets.
Mooladharachakra
represents nose, Swadhistaana represents tongue, Manipura represents eye,
Anahata represents skin, and Visuddha
represents Ear. .
As long as mind works
in tandem with these senses man cannot find the true happiness. When mind is
diverted from these senses and made to go within with Kriyayoga sadhana, and
getting nearer to God, then man completely realizes what is real happiness and
what he has lost.
The string between
Physical body and senses is Life force only.
The Sadhak withdraws
his mind and life force from the senses in Kriyayoga. Withdrawing means
controlling with dispassion.
When brea th is controlled, heart and life force
will be controlled by themselves automatically. The controlled heart shall lead
to controlled senses. It is like a
Mathematical equation.
Breath should not be
controlled with unscientific methods. The Kriyayoga techniques of controlling
the breath have to be learnt in person from a Sadguru, the illumined one.
To control mind
through mental meditation shall take quite a long time. Kriyayoga is an
Aeroplane way of controlling brea th
and hence mind. This lead to make the mind steady and help the sadhak to go
within quickly.
Kidneys: They
remove/decant the toxins and chemicals from the impure blood.
Heart: This will pump the blood with Oxygen through out
the body. It will serve blood with Oxygen to all the nerves in the body. In
return path it will take the Oxygenless blood. The Oxygenless blood will be
sent to lungs for Oxygen. Here in lungs the Carbon dioxide is removed and
Oxygen is added. This oxygen added blood is returned to Heart again.
Lungs: They will absorb the brea th in and removes the Carbon dioxide.
Taking the brea th in and removing the Carbon
dioxide is called brea thing in and brea thing out.
To control mind 1) Reducing of Carbon dioxide in the
blood by taking more and more fruits as food substitue and 2) Regular kriyayoga
Practice, are required.
With the above things, blood gets purified and the need
of sending carbonized blood to Heart will be lessened. Hence the burden of
Heart will be lessened. Gradually the
heart becomes steady and gets rest. Life force will be withdrawn from the
senses. The mind in the cerebellum will
not get any signals. Mind becomes steady and concentrates on God.
Like tortoise, the Sadhak will with draw the senses that
help the mind.

When we do not accept these objects of senses physically
by suppressing them with fasts etc., they are kept away for a while, but we are
not losing their longing permanently. If the man who beholds the God, is freed
for ever from their clutches.
Man should come
out of the longing for sense objects not only physically but also mentally. If
you suppress your desires then they will boomerang with renewed vigour like a
suppressed spring. If a man fasts for one
or two days bracingly, then he will have more longing for food just by the
utterance of the word ’food’.

He Kaunteya(son of Kunti), Senses are very strong in nature.
They will pull the man forcibly away from yoga Sadhana with which he is making
tremendous efforts to go within.
Just wearing saffron clothes and being a celibate merely
cannot escape from the attraction of the senses. Bacteria will not cause diseases at once.
There will be some incubation period. It will attack when man becomes weak.
Likewise if the Sadhana is weakened then the senses will attack the mind of
Sadhak.

When man broods about
the objects of senses then he will have attachment for those objects. This attachment
will lead to craving. This craving leads to desires. Unfulfilment of desires
lead to anger. Anger leads to ignorance.
Ignorance leads to loss of memory or forgetfulness. This loss of memory leads
to decay of discriminating intellect. This decay of leads to annihilation.

Arjun said:
He Krishna ,
if you consider that pure wisdom is superior to Karma, then why you are
entangling me in this ferocious war?
Karma here implies
Nishkaamakarma Yoga which means doing karma without expecting results.
Karma, Bhakti,
Dhyaana, and Gnaana are not independent yogas. They are interdependent. The
knowledge gained from books has to be experienced, then only that knowledge is
meaningful and will be fruitified. To gain that experience, war of Meditation
is to be practiced.
Merely reading the
scriptures shall not lead us anywhere and shall not unite us with God. One
should eat Banana or Mango. Reading the description of these fruits will not
suffice to know the taste.

Oh Krishna ,
you are confusing my intellect with conflicting speeches. Please let me know
which one is better and safer for me, Karma yoga or Gnaanayoga, definitely.
Dhyana, Meditation,
is Nishkaamakarma. With this one will get dedication, Bhakti. Personification
of Dedication is Dhyana i.e., one
pointedness. The experience of this Dhyana is Gnana or Pure wisdom.

Oh sinless Arjun, on
the onset of creation, I have two ways of salvation was given by me. 1)Divine
union through wisdom for saankhyas, and 2) Dhyana or Meditation i.e., Nishkaama
Karmayoga for Yogis.
Without doing Karma
or work, one will not gain knowledge.
How to make Idlis, a
south Indian cuisine, has to be gained practically through the ones who knows
it, but not by reading books. Likewise wisdom is gained by doing Meditation,
Dhyana Karma.
Today if you are able
to tell 17x3=51 without referring any
book of tables is because of your hardwork of byhearting tables in your Primary
classes. In our childhood perception
will be less but memory power will be more. When we grow up memory power will
be less and perception will be more.
Nakarmanaamanaarambhaanaishkarmayampurushosnute

Without doing Karma,
actions, man will not attain the actionless state of soul wisdom. Merely
relinquishing Karma, no one can attain liberated state.
35 or 40 years of
continuous Government service shall make you eligible to get pension. Then only
one will be able to eat without doing any service.
So one should do
Karma and then sacrifice. Without Karma Sacrifice is useless. Even worldly
knowledge i.e., commom sense also cannot be attained without doing Karma. Then how pure wisdom can be got without
Meditation. Meditation is called Dhyana Karma.

No one on this earth
can keep quite without doing Karma even for a while. Everyone does Karma
compulsarly by nature.
The whole universe is
made of amd working with three
qualities, Satwa, Rajo, and Tamo. Soul
is beyond Creation.
If a Golden ring
falls in a mud block it will be besmeared with mud. Likewise when soul is encompassed in Mind,
Life Force, and Body, it will be smeared with Ego. It appears as though it is
also yielded to Physical, Mental, and Spiritual states.
If the mud is
cleansed then the Golden ring shines with its original sheen. Remember the mud
is not penetrating into the atoms of Golden ring here. Similarly the Mala,
vikhepana, and Avarana Faults cannot penetrate into Soul. Once they are removed
the soul will illuminates with its original effulgence.
Even the completely
realized yogi also trains the people with Kriyayoga who are longing for it. He
does it for the sake of doing Nishkaamakarma but this is Karma only. So no one
keeps quite without doing Karma. Nobody can be an idler forever for all the
times.

He who forcibly
suppresses his senses and shall be thinking always about the objects of the
senses, is a hypocrite.
If one says that I will achieve eternal
beatitude with Sadhana and then relinquishes it in the middle for the sake of
trivial sense pleasures, then he is an hypocrite only. To wear saffron robes
and behaving like a Sage is the work of hypocrite only. Evil thoughts gradually
leads to evil works.
So mind has to be
controlled gradually with the regular practice of Kriyayoga. A suppressed
spring t strikes the face with renewed strength once it is released. Similarly evil thoughts will impregnate the
mind if the Sadhana is given up in the middle.
The one who has
reached a state of Paramahamsa with his Sadhana may or may not do Sadhana. The
union with God or attaining Nirvikalpa Samadhi state is the state of
Paramahansa. He is like pensioner getting beatitude pension for God.

Oh Srjun, you do the
Karma as ordained by Veda Sastras, the scriptures. It is wiser to do Karma than
to become an idler otherwise even small works of body needs like calls of
nature are difficult to do later.
Sadhak has to do Kriyayoga Sadhana as ordained
by scriptures. One may not become an
accomplished Master of Kriya yoga practice. It is ok. In Sadhana, the body will
be steady, stable and immovable like a Rock. That does not mean that he has
sacrificed Karma or not doing any Karma. Sadhak will be working intensely with
mind during Meditation. He withdraws his mind from senses and directs his
subtle forces inwardly to unite with God. This is real Karma yoga.

In the beginning of
Creation, Brahma has created these yagnas alongwith people, and said: ‘You get
multiplied with these Yagnas, now these yagnas will fulfil your desires.’
In yagnas Brahma will always be there
internally.
This is the Chain.
Parabrahman has made
creation consisting of men out of his Consciousness. Having been created with
my inspiration, multiply with this inspiration. This is what HE has ordained.

With this Yagnas you

satisfy each other by which you get great benefits. .
Yogadhyaana is a
superior Yagna. In this Yagna, the
Sadhak will get united with several subtle forces i.e., divine Souls. They are
the representatives of Parabrahman. Parabrahman will be organizing the universe
through them. So for the mutual
propitiation, Meditation is beneficial.
These planets and

Abhishekam and
Panchaamritasnaanam:
Earth, water, Fire,
Air, and space/Ether are the Panchabhootaas(Five Electricities). This Creation
is made up of with these five. Human
body is also made up of with these five electricities.
Aslong as these Creation
exists these Panchabhootas shall exist. So they are five nectars, Pancha
Amritas. Oh God, YOU have provided this
Creation consisting of these five electricities. They are not above YOU. We
dedicate these to YOU. To express this conception we dedicate water to him.
Water represents one of the Pancha Amritas and it is easy to dedicate.
Namaskar is a symbol
of respect in which both the palms are
joined. By joining both the palms there
will not be any space left between them. This is to say, ‘nothing is mine,
everything is yours.’. We pay our respects to God by doing Namaskar and
sprinkle water on left, right, above and below, back and front, of our body. This is called Panchamrita Snanam, a Hindu
way of showing respect to God.
SriRamaPadukaPattabhishekam—SriRamaPattabhishekam

which means HE who will make us happy

Paaduka means foot
wear made with wood. This Paaduka represents Moolaadharachakra. This chakra
represents Prithveetatwa(Earth—smell). To dedicate this Prithveetatwa to God as
a beginning of starting Sadhana by Bharata, brother of Rama, here Sadhaka, is
SriRama Paduka Pattabhishekam. Here
Patta means Merudanda, Spinal Cord. Abhishekam means Dedication.
Sri means sacred, and
Rama means beholding Great Effulgence, SriRama means beholding sacred Great
Effulgence.
Dedicating all the
five electricities in the Merudanda, Spinal Cord, to God for the above ultimate
goal, is SriRamaPattabhishekam.
If you do Om chanting in Chakras with dedication, then the subtle
forces in those chakras shall aid the Kriyayoga Sadhana.
With the practice of
KriyaYoga Sadhana, the outgoing life force from the Indriyas will not be
wasted. All those outgoing forces will be directed back to Cerebrum through the
Spinal Cord. Then the body of the Sadhak and the atoms in the cerebrum shall
become filled with electromagnetic
Energy and then the atoms will be transformed into Spiritual Elixir.
Even for a small
development of the Atoms in the cerebrum,
12 years of Healthy life is required.
For complete transformation 10 lakhs years of Healthy life is
required. Kriyayoga will make it easy
for us.

The left overs of the
fire offerings in Yagna are eaten by the Saints and they are freed from all
sins. Those who make food only for the good of
themselves shall eat sin only.
Doing
Kriyayoga sadhana(Yagna) and then eating food is the work of men of virtue.
Life force
is the devine force for Physical body.
In this
state where Mental intelligence force
and the outgoing life force, both are integrated with physical matter, the
physical lifetrons shall depend upon and food and breath.
This
mental intelligent life force when manifested as vibratory force in the
Physical body, then it will be making continuous efforts to bring metamorphosis
in the Physical lifetrons which is important.
Physical
body depends upon food and brea th
for its existence. Till the final liberation the cycle of births and deaths are
inevitable.
Life force
mentally thrusting its Soul message to lifetrons and conveying liberation as
the psalm of life. However amount of healthy principles we follow scrupulously,
death is inevitable.
The Great souls like Mahavatar Babaji who
depend on only Cosmic Consciousness can
live in the Physical body house with the strength of Yogic Force. They will be
transforming their physical body frequently and remain eternally youthful.

Creatures
are manifested from food. Food begotten from Rains, rains from Yagna, Yagna
from Good Karma. This good karma is caused by Scriptures. This Scriptures came
out of ParaBrahman. You should know that
all pervasive Brahma is ever present in the Yagna.
Living
beings require Food for nourishment. This will be got from the rains. The
source for matter is Agni and its effulgence,
manifested from ParaBrahman only. This Prakaas i.e., energy is
solidified and precipitates as rain. Paramatma means Cosmic Consciousness.
Creation is Yagna. So the source for this Yagna is this Cosmic Consciousness
only.
Moola
Prakriti is the one that is not yet visible to the naked eyes. In accordance
with individual Karma, as per the directions of Parabrahman, intelligent OM vibration that are responsiblr for Creation are
generated. This is called Moola Prakriti or source nature.
Cosmic
Consciousness is inherent in Paramatma.
MoolaPrakriti is with many faceted forms, configurations, and formations
of Shrishti, Creation, format is delivered out of this.
Parabrahman
is to be perceived in two ways. 1)Cosmic Consciousness, and 2)OM
vibratory force.
Cosmic
Consciousness can be perceived as the dream of Para brahman.
This is a dream of Karana, sookshma, and Sthoola. This a dream of Idea, Subtle,
and Physical, combined together.
Physical
body is a combination of Electromagnetic wave in reality. Even man also beholds
the characters of Idea, Subtle, and Physical in his human dream. That is why
man is said to be the replica of Para brahman.

He Arjun,
this way this Creation cycle has been made to rotate and who does not follow
this cycle shall lead a wasteful life of a sinner and becomes sense slave.
The Cos mic Consciousness enters Brahmarandhra through Medulla.and from there
to Sahasrara. From Sahasrara it enters Merudanda, the spinal cord, through
Agna, Visyuddha, Anahata, Manipura, Swadhistaana, and Moolaadhara Chakras and
will gradually become human consciousness.
This will enter the organs
through nerve centre and nerves and flow outwards and succumbed to sense
pleasures.
The food will take seven changes to become
semen ultimately.
1)Food,
2)Blood, 3)Flesh), 4)Nerves, 5)Bones, 6)Bone marrow, and 7)Semen)
Food takes
15(Fortnight)days to transform into Blood.
The Blood
will take 27(Asterics or stars) days to become useful blood..
This blood
takes 41(Mantrasiddhi) days to transform into flesh.
Flesh
takes 52 (Sanskrit Alphabets)days to transform into nerves..
Nerves
take 64 (Types of Arts) days to transform into Bones. Bones take 84 (Types of

Bone
marrow take 96 (This body is made of 96 elements or ideas as per SankhyaSastra)
days to transform into Semen.
Semen
takes 108 (Hindu Ashtottara satanaamaavali) days to transform into Ojahsakti.
With Kriyayoga Sadhana the human consciousness
will be united with Cos mic Consciousness
through Spinal cord. The wheel of Creation will thus be moving or manifesting
through spinal cord.

Life force
and Mind are the tools for Physical Karma. Cleanliness, required food and worldly
behaviour is Physical Karma. Meditation does not reqire Mind and life force. In
fact they have to be withdrawn. Sadhak should continue to do his sadhana
without expecting any fruits.

Sri Bhagavan uvaacha:--
Imam vivaswateyogam
Proktavaanahamavyayam
Vivaswaan
Manavepraaha Manurikshwaakavebraveet 1
Sri Bhagavan said:-
I have said this
eternal and truthful yoga to Sun. Sun has said this to Vaiswata Manu. Vaivaswat
Manu has preached this to Ikshwaaku.
When a
sadhak is settled in Yoga, then he will behold 3rd eye in Kootastha,
the place between Eyebrows un the fore head. He will hear the auspicious sound
of OM.
Sound
travels at a speed of 344 meters per
second at 220.
Light travels at a
speed of 3x108 meters per second.
The first manifestation
of Para brahman is His effulgence i.e., Cosmic
Consciousness. This is Om nipotent. This is
called Soorya, Sun. This 3rd eye appears in Kootastha when the
Sadhak concentrates his human consciousness and dual electricities in his two
eyes with intense meditation. This is
called Vyashtaatma(ind ividual
Soul) or Atma Soorya, Sun. The omnipotent Cos mic
Consciousness also he will behold as a siver 5pointed star in 3rd
eye.
From this 3rd
eye only, the omnipotent Cos mic Consciousness
shall enter into nerve centres and nerves through Chakras, from there to body, and transforms into Human
consciousness.
This human
consciousness will be entangled with Chitta(feelings), Ahamkar(Ego),
Man(wavering mind), and Buddhi(discriminating intelligence).
The human consciousness will perform its
function in four different ways:
1)
performing the work within the frame work of
Senses, 2) performing the functions with determination, integrating with
Buddhi(Intellect), 3) manifesting desire with the association of senses, and4)
to give up or move away from Parabrahman with the wrong conception of Maya,
delusion, as real.
The limited human
consciousness in the Physical Antahkarana cannot grasp unlimited Cosmic
Consciousness. It is possible with the practice of Kriyayoga sadhana only.
Mind is manifested
from Atmasurya, Vyashtaatma. Hence the son of Atma Surya(Soul son) is Karana
chetana or Idea mind. So Idea mind is the sun of vaivaswata(Sun). Vaivaswata Manu is Idea mind.
3rd eye in
Kootastha is the Gate way to transform the Cosmic Consciousness into human
consciousness and life force.
3rd eye is
the source for the manifestation of both the Idea(Karana) and Subtle(sookshma)
bodies.
The 3rd
eye of Idea body is the source for 3rd eye of Subtle body.
Ideabody will have
its own Idea spinal cord, and Subtle body will have its own subtle spinalcord.
Sushumna subtle nadi
pertains to subtle body spinal cord.
Vajra in Sushumna,
chitri in Vajra, and Brahmanadi in Chitri pertain to Idea spinal cord.
The Cosmic
Consciousness and Cosmic energy, both will initially enter into 3rd
eye of Idea body, and from there into
Idea spinal cord as Idea Consciousness
and Idea life force. From Idea spinal
cord they will enter into subtle body 3rd eye and from there into
Subtle Spinal cord. Here they will transform into subtle consciousness and
subtle life foce.
This subtle body 3rd
is called ‘Ikshwaaku.’ Iksh means eye.
Manu means
Ikshwaaku, the son of Idea
consciousness.
Senses of Physical
body is not the source of ego for Ikshwaaku state. The ego in Ikshwaku state
from Soul. This comes from Soul as such it is called Sahajaavabodhana or
Intuition.
The Cosmic
Consciousness and Cosmic energy, both will
enter into spinal cord of Physical body through the spinal cord of
subtle body as Human Consciousness and life force. From there they will enter
into Physical senses having sense objects which work in
coordination/conjunction with Karmendriyas, organs of Action. This state of
Physical and karmendriyas is called Rajarshi state. In that Rajarshi state, man
will forget Yoga Sadhana and does not do sadhana.

means Kriyayoga is a serious business but not humorous one. People should not imagine that the Kriyayogi
is simply sitting by closing his eyes without doing any work. Kriyayoga is the medium by which the
individual soul gets united with Spirit. It is eternal and truthful Rajayoga.
This Rajayoga is Kriyayoga.

He Krishna ,
your birth is recent one. The birth of
Sun is very ancient one. How I can grasp
that you have preached this Yoga to Sun.
Pure soul is nothing
but a ray of Spirit only. As such Spirit
and Soul are inseperable from each other. Fire and its rays, Ocean and its
waves are not two different things.
Pure soul, Nature,
Mind, and body are combinely called Jeeva. God is Truth, bliss, and beauty. He
is Sat, Chit, Ananda Swaroopa. He is Asti ,
Bhaati, and Priyam. If name and Form are
added to God, then He is Jeeva. Para brahman is
nameless and formless.
Sadhak will see the
effulgence initially in his Sadhana. Gradually he enjoys/experiences Cosmic
Consciousness. The yogi who is united with Para brahman
in his Sadhana only can understand the Natures of Physical, Subtle, and Idea.
Till such time to understand Srikrishna as Para brahman
is an uphill task.

SriBhagavan said
thus:
The scorcherer of
foes, he Arjun, So many births have been elapsed for you and me. I am aware of
your births but you are not aware of my births.
All businesses are
burnt in Sadhana.
Srikrishna is Yogi
amongst Yogis. Such Yogis will have incessant and unbreakable bondage with
Parabrahman. They only will have the consciousness/knowledge of past and
present births. The yogi who has not yet reached this level cannot have this
consciousness. One can see the past births with 3rd eye.
In fact, not to have
the knowledge of past births is a boon.
For example, a couple in this birth have come to know that they were
brother and sister in their past birth. Can they live happily now?

Iam birthless,

things. In spite of that I am taking birth with my own nature. There is no birth and death, beginning and
ending for Cos mic Consciousness. Nature, Maya, is a part of Para brahman.

He Arjun, whenever
Dharma, righteousness, declines, and the
Adharma, opposite of Dharma, is on the
rise, then I will create myself.
Energy can neither be
created nor can be destroyed. One form
of Energy can be transformed into
another form of Energy. Electrical energy can be transformed into mechanical
Energy and vice versa. This is called
transducing. Whatever is happening in this Universe(s) is for development only.
Incarnations(Avataras):--
1) Matsya: Grasp pure wis dom
from the sea of dou bts.
2)Koorma: Lead the life with dispassion(Vairagya). Give up attachment.
3)Varaaha: With the
help of two wisdom teeth, Dedication and Discipline, execute your assigned
righteous duties in this life. VA= The
most superior, RAHA= Path. Varaha means the Superior Pa th
i.e., get united with Spirit through Kriyayoga Sadhana while performing your
assigned righteous duties in this Samsaar(Family). .
4) Nara simha: You are a lion in the form of Man. Lion mates once in three years.
Likewise, shed your ego, control your lust for sex, and get united with Para brahman through Kriyayoga Sadhana.
5)Vaamana:
VA=The most superior, MANA= Mind. With
the most superior Mind, i.e., with steady mind, overcome the
difficulties/obstacles of
Physical(Adibhautika), Subtle (Adi davika), and Idea(Adhyatmika) bodies, get
united with Para brhman through Kriyayoga
Sadhana.
6)Parasurama:
Destroy Ignorance with Wis domAxe(Gnaana Pa rasu), follow
the righteous path of Kriya Yoga, and get united with Para brahman.
7) SriRama: What you
encounter in life is your Karma. Overcome that with Kriyayoga Sadhana with ind omitable will power, the faculty provided by God with
magnanimity to man kind, and get united with Para matma.
8) SriKrishna:
Follow the path of Kriyayoga to satisfy Para brahman
and do incessant and intense Sadhana.
GajendraMoksham:
There is a mythological
story in Hindu Bhagavata. One elephant enters
a river. Its legs were caught by a crocodile. It prays Lord Vishnu for
Help. Hearing its prayers Vis hnu sends his
weapon Sudarshan Chakra to kill the Crocodile and gets the elephant freed from
the clutches of Crocodile.
Its inner
meaning is given below:
Gaja=Elephant. Ga alphabet in Sanskrit represents Pure
wisdom. Ja= Intelligence. So Gaja means the one with Pure intelligence. Gaja+Ind riya=Gajendriya= the
most superior amongst the senses i.e., Mind. So Mind is the most superior
amongst the senses. Moksham=liberation.
Crocodile represents mundane existence. Sudarshan Charam= thousand
petalled Sahasrarachakra.
Manaeva
ManushyaanaamBandhaMokshaKaaranam.
The liberation of
Mind from mundane existence with Kriyayoga Sadhana is Gajendramoksham. Then the sadhak
beholds the Sahasrarachakra which will annihilate all bondages.
Hiranyakasipuvadha:
There is another
mythological story in Hindu Srimadbhagavat. In this story Vis hnu
takes into a form of Half man and half lion called Narasimhaavatara, and kills a ferocious demon called
Hiranyakasipu with HIS paws.
Oh, man, you are not
man, in reality you are a courageous lion, man of divinity. Man, like a
courageous lion, should make lion’s effort to do the practice of Kriyayoga
sadhana so as to come out of his egoistic nature is the essence of this story.
Hiranyaakshavadha:
Hiranyakshu throws
the Earth into water.
In this Vishnu takes
into a form of Pig called Varaahaavatara, lifts the earth with his two wisdom
teeth, kills another ferocious demon called Hiranyaakshu with his nails.
Man is the replica of
Earth. Water represents Family. Man will have two wis dom
teeth representing wis dom.
He man, don’t
submerge into water i.e., Samasar, Family. Get united with Para brahman
with Kriyayoga Sadhana. Don’t submerge in family. Come out of it with wis dom.
The annihilation of
Brahmagrandi that pertains to Physical body
is the concept of killing Hiranyakasipu and Hiranyaaksha demons. Killing
of ego is very important in Sadhana.
Ravana Kumbhakarna
Vadha:
In Ramayana, the
sacred Hindu epic, two most coveted enemies viz., ego and desire are killed.
These enemies of Sadhak are Ravana and KumbhaKarna, the most ferocious demons.
Ravana brings
forcibly the wife of Rama due to lust.
His younger brother Kumbhakarna agrees to help him in this sinful
deed. Vis hnu
takes the Avatar of Sri Rama and kills both the demons.
The annihilation of
Rudragrandi that pertains to subtle body
is the concept of killing Ravana and KumbhaKarna demons, the epitomes of
ego and lust.
Sisupala and Dantavaktra Va dha:
In Srimadbhagavat, Vis hnu in the form of Srikrishna kills two more demons,
Sisupala and Dantavaktra.
These two demons
represents the residual childish ego in the Sadhak.
Sisu = Child, Danta = dentition time for small children.
The annihilation of
Vishnugrandi that pertains to Idea body
is the concept of killing Sisupala and Dantavaktra
demons, the epitomes of the residual childish ego in the Sadhak.

I will incarnate in
every aeon, to safeguard saints and sages of virtue, to destroy evildoers, and
for the establishment of Dharma.
Everything is the
incarnation or form of Para brahman only. All
waves of ocean contains that sea water only. Men of virtue and vice, ladies or
Gents without any gender difference, both contains the same Cos mic
consciousness only. The statue or idol
of deva or demon is made or carved out
of the same mud or stone only.
The great devine
Souls, Bhagavan SriKrishna, Mahavatar Babaji, LahiriMahasay, and Paramahansa
Yogananda etc., have the same Cos mic
Consciousness only. They can destroy this Universe just by opening their 3rd
eye. That is not the required thing. Normal
ordinary people need not be afraid of them. they attract us towards them, show
us the true path, and lead us to get
united with Para brahman.
However evil minded
the children may be, the parents always wanted them to be transformed into good
souls and will be giving required good councelling. If those children follow the councelling of
elders and become good citizens, it is
ok, otherwise the parents will leave them to their fate but not kill them. Para brahman is our Mother and Father both. HE wanted a good transformation in us. He
will nev er
kills us for our faults.

He Arjun, who
understands my Devine incarnation and Karma properly, that Sadhak will not be
entangled with this ‘births and deaths’ Cycle and will get into me eternally.
Man should come out of this Maya, del usion,
and get into his own home i.e., Para brahman
again.

Giving up Affection,
Fear, and Anger, always engrossed and
sheltered in me, many beings have been
liberated having been sanctified by pure wisdom and attained my form.
In Yoga sadhana if
the life force or kundalini life force is directed towards Ida subtle nadi on
the left side of in side Merudanda, spinal cord, Sadhak will get Fear and
anger. If it is directed towards Pingala
subtle nadi on the right side of in side Merudanda, then the Sadhak will get
affection and attachment.
Sadhak should do
Meditation by fixing his gaze in kootastha while directing his Kundalini life
force through the middle of Merudanda i.e., Sushumna only. So doing dhyana, the
sadhak will be sanctified with soul wis dom and
attain Para brahman.

He Arjun, those who
serve me in whatever way they like, I will benefit them in the same measure.
Men follows my path in each and every manner.
All paths of worship lead to me only.
The fruitfulness of
Sadhana depends upon the efforts of the sadhak. It is proportional to his
Sadhana.

Brahman, Vaisya,

are manifested by ME. Though they are manifested by me but Iam not the Karta,
the doer, as Iam beyond them. know me as changeless, decayless and undoer.
The one who does not
do Sadhana at all, he will have 100% doubt about the existence of God. He is Sudra state of Kaliyuga having dark and
unmoved heart.
When sucha man starts
Kriyayoga Sadhana, his outgoing Kundalini force will turn inwards and touches
Moolaadhara chakra. 20% of his doubt
will evaporates and his doubt will be reduced to 80%. He is still considered to
be in Kaliyuga, but he will transform himself into Kshatriya, a warrior class ready
to fight the internal foes and his is a propelled heart.
If he continues his Sadhana, then his awakened
Kundalini. touches
Swadhistaanachakra. 20% of his doubt
will further evaporates and his doubt will be reduced to 60%. He is considered to be in Dwaparayuga, he will transform himself into Dwija. Here he
starts realizing about doubting the existence of God and hence he is said to be
born again or twice born. Now with
steady heart he will pursue sadhana.
With furth er continuance of Sadhana, his awakened
Kundalini. touches Manipurachakra. 20% of his doubt will further evaporates and
his doubt will be reduced to 40%. He is
considered to be in Tretayuga, he
will transform himself into Vipra eligible to study Vedas, the scriptures. In
fact Veda means to hear. Hence he is eligible to hear the Pranava Sound OM. . Now with
devotedor dedicated heart he will pursue sadhana.
With furth er continuance of Sadhana, his awakened
Kundalini. touches Anahatachakra. 20% of his doubt will further evaporates and
his doubt will be reduced to 20%. He is

Clear Clear heart he will pursue sadhana.
The son of a Prime
Minster need not be a Prime Minister, he can be a chaprasi also. The son of an
eminent Doctor need not be a Doctor, he can be peon. Colonel, Brigadier etc are
not names, they are Designations. They have to be acquired with
qualifications, abilities, and
experience etc. The caste is like a designation. It has to be acquired.
So no one is a Brahmin by birth.

Every man is devided
into 1) Satwa, 2)Satwa-Rajo, 3)Rajo-Tamas, and 4)Tamo, as per his deed and
actions. Man does karma as per his Guna, attributes of nature. the man who is
anchored to Para brahman is beyond Karma. No
karma nor caste can bound him.

What is Karma? What
is Akarma? Even the learned people are unaware of it properly. I am rendering
you now, the knowledge of the one
that liberates you.
In spite of doing
some sadhana, if the sadhak leaves his sadhana and comes out, and entangles
with senses more than the requirement, then he will entertain the same douts,
‘What is Dharma and what is Adharma.’
The actions that are
done only for ego satisfaction are Adharma Karma, and those Karmas that are
done only for Para brahman with dedication and
without any selfish motive are kalled Dharma Karmas.

The awareness of the
Karmas as ordained, not ordained, by scriptures,and the Karmas of inaction are to be fully known. The truthfulness
of the knowledge of the Karma is very deep and quite difficult.
Parabrahman expresses
Himself in the nature in many a different ways. The things in nature sometimes
give us satisfaction and sometimes dissatisfaction. They perturb us in many a
number of ways.
The karmas that
motivate our consciousness to awaken our Kundalini force are Dharma bound and
those that make the man slave to Senses are Adharma bound.
We should eat to live
but not viceversa. The Karmas that harm us Physically, mentally, and
spiritually, are not to be done. They
are Adharma Karmas. Smoking, drinking, meat eating, and lust for sex etc., are
illustrated as Adharma Karmas.

Life itself is a drama. Playing this drama

is termed as seing inaction in action.

patience and endurance.

Not having interest
in anything(other than God), freed from attraction and repulsion, desire and

welfare of fellow beings—his whole karma is destroyed and not creating any
bondage of ‘births and deaths’ cycle.
The physical things
only that we give as Ahootis in a Fire ceremony shall not cause salvation to
man. The Ahutis we submit in a Fire
ceremony are replicas of senses and their objects. We must sincerely feel that
we are dedicating thingts to fire is pre requisite failing which it is a
waste. This commom sense is essen tial.
1) Flowers: They
represent Skin, Sparsanasakti, touch
2) Colours : They
represent eyes, Seing power, Drisyasakti, Results.
3) Cow Ghee(clarified
butter): It represents Tongue, Taste power, Ruchisakti.
4) Fragrant things:
Incense sticks represent Nose, smelling power.
5) Conch shell: It
represents Ear, hearing power, sabda sakti.
These things are
submitted as a taken of dedication for the purification of senses and the king
of senses, mind.
Liberation is
possible only with the pure mind. The cow ghee is poured into the fire sacrice
as a token of the unification of pure mind with Cos mic
Consciousness.
Flowers are submitted
as symbol of withdrawing life force from the senses and the withdrawn life
force is submitted to the seven chakras and from there to Para brahman.

The instruments that
are required for Fire Sacrifice, the things that are to be put into fire yagna,
the fire, the one who does fire yagna, the oblation itself—all are the forms of
Parabrahman only. With this one and only one feeling sadhak should do the
Yagna. Then he will attain Parabrahman itself.
Brahmaagnaavapareyagnamyagnenevopajuhvati 25
Some yogis are
following Yagnas of worshipping the Devas or deities, some are offering self,
as a sacrifice made by the self, in the fire of spirit of alone.
The Sadhak, his
Sadhana, and his object of Sadhana, all are the forms of Para brahman
only. With this feeling the sadhak is getting Samadhi, the ecstatic union with Para brahman.
If the Sadhak is
healthy, then only he can do Sadhana.
So, for health, he
should worship Viswa in Micro Physical, Virat in Macro Physical worlds.
For vigo rous life force, he should pray Tejas in
Micro Astral, Hiranyagarbha in Macro Astral worlds..
For going within and
pure wis dom
he should pray Pragna in Micro Idea, and Eswara in Macro Idea worlds.
To come out of Maya the sadhak should worship
‘OM ’ i.e., Maha Prakriti. The prayer should be
: Oh Devine mother, make me united with Para brahman,
and show me the truth.
To
obtain the God in Creation i.e., Kootastha Chaitanya, pray like this: Oh, Sree Krishna Consciousness, manifest in my Samadhi meditaion.
To
get united with Cos mic Consciousness, pray
like this: Oh, Cosmic Consciousness, manifest, manifest.

Some are offering
senses in the fire of inner control, and some are offering the objects of the
senses as oblations into fire of senses as oblations.
Dharana, dhyana, and
Samadhi together are called samyama which means with sense control, the sadhak should do intense sadhana with
steady mind.
There are four types
of disciplines. They are:
1)Brahmacharyam(Cellibacy):
Vidhyarthi dasa(Student life)
2)Grihastha :
Vivaahadasa: (Married life)
3)Vaanaprastham:Sadhanadasa(secluded
life), and
4)
Sanyaasam:Sat means the only Truth.
Nyaasam means the
Search for truth.

Some are

of making efforts and self discipline for unision with God.
With the advancement of Sadhana, the sadhak
will initially hear the sound of OM. Then he willenter into ShriKrishna
Consciousness, the God in Creation. Continuing his Sadhana intensely he will
merge with Para brahman. He himself will be a witnessee, the
Saksheebhoota.

Some are obstructing
the path Prana and Apana, the incoming and outgoing life forces. Then they will
offer Pranavayu in Apanavayu, Apanavayu in Pranavayu as oblations.
Praana= life
force, Yaama= controlling.
The controlling of
life force is called Pranayama. Control
of brea th is
not Pranayama. The whole universe is filled with Life force.
We stepdown the
24000volts electricity into 240v with cascaded step down transformers so as to
be useful for us.
River water is
brought to us through huge water pipes. Then it will be made to pass through
small pipes so that they will be useful to us.
Likewise the distorted Cos mic
Consciousness is transformed into Life Force so that it will be useful for us
in Micro level and the same life force is spread in the whole universe in Macro
level. This life force only is making
this universe existent. This life force is called Para prakriti,
This life force only
is manifested in different ways in this universe as creatures, plants, birds,
animals, and mankind. The mechanical power that make the lungs, Heart, liver,
and kidneys etc., to function is this life force only.
The Soul in the body
is the master, and life force is its servant. The commands of self are executed
by life force through the medium of Ego.
Life force is intelligent but will not have any spiritual consciousness. Pure soul can survive without life force but
the life force cannot survive without Soul.
The matter for all the
things in the dream is supplied by the dreamer himself. Likewise the supplier of matter for the dream
of Paramatma is Himself only.
If the physical eye
is opened then the dream of man will melt away. But the dream of Para matma will vanish if
the third in the kootastha is opened with Kriyayoga Meditation by man.
The life force is
supplied to all the living beings in a required manner. The life force that is
supplied to the man in arequired manner and magnitude is called Chief life
force or Mukhya Pranasakti.
This Mukhya
Pranasakti enters the embriyo alonwith Jeevatma or self. It will remain with
that being till death pertinent to his Karma.
Food will depend upon
life force. Apart from this, this chief
life force enters from the Universe as a cosmic consciousness into Cerebrum
through Medulla oblongata. From there it will be distributed to the remaining
Chakras proportionately.
Oxygen will have
energy only. The life force will have both Consciousness and Energy. Life force
will be available throughout the body. It will be doing different works in
different organs/parts of the body and hence it will have different names
pertinent to its function.
In the name of
Pranavayu, it does Crystallization. Crystallization means manifestation of
several functions.
In the name of
Apanavayu, it does Elimination. Elimination of all waste products.
In the name of
Samanavayu, it does Assimilation. Assimilation means digesting the food and
then distributing the proteins required by different organs and helps in production
of new cells in place of dead cells.
In the name of
Udaanavayu, it does Metabolizing. Hair growth, flesh, and skin requires
different cells for nourishment and different equations will be happening for
this. This is called Metabolizing.
Praana and Apaana are
two important electricities in our body.
Apaana currents will
travel from kootastha to to Anus through Agna, Visuddha, Anahata, Manipura,
Swadhistaana, and Moolaadhara via spinal cord and from there it goes out.
Through the anus. This is not steady and hence make the man slave to senses and
sense objects.
The Pranavayu travels
from Anus to Kootastha via Mooladhara, Swadhistaana, Manipura, Anahata, Vis uddha, and Agna chakras upto Kootastha. This is
peaceful. It will unite self with Para matma during sleep and Yogadhyana.
Apana pulls the
consciousness of man to worldly things, and Prana pulls it towards Para brahman. So
one current pulls without and another pulls within. For Sadhana, going within
is very essen tial.
This is called making the sadhak ANTARMUKH.
This makes the unision with Para brahman
becomes easier. Making the consciouness
inwards to get united with God is called Kriyayoga.
When Mukhyaprana in
the guise of Apanavayu goes out of anus, enrgy will be spent for cells,
tandons, tandons, for transmiting the messages to the brain and from the brain
to the reqired organ through the sensor and motor nerves, and for mental thinkings etc. In
this process several waste products will be left in the blood. Carbon dioxide(CO2) is one such
waste product. That impure blood has to
be cleansed immediately failing which the physical death occurs. To restore the spent energy and rejuvenation, Mukhyaprana is required
With the pulls of
Praana and Apaana, quite opposite in nature, in Spinal cord, the brea thing process exists.
When the life force
goes up, it will carry life force consisting of Pranavayu into the lungs and
there the Carbon dioxide is removed. This is called breathing. To purify the liquid and solid things in the
stomach, more time is required. That cleansed/purified energy is pumped into
the cells is this life force only. This purified life energy will be
reinvigorating the chakras in spinal cord, kootastha, and Cerebrum. The residual energy from the Brea th is carried to all parts of the body by
the blood. Then Panchapranas(Five airs)
shall be utilizing that life energy in a required fashion.
The physical body
consists of Physical spinal cord, Physical brain, and Physical places for
chakras.
Subtle body has
subtle spinal cord, subtle brain, subtle locations for chakras,and subtle
nervous system.
Subtle nerves are
called sookshmanadis. Nerve is a
physical term which is tangible, and subtle i.e., sookshmanadis are not
tangible.
The energy needed for
Panchakarmendriyas, and Pancha Gnanendriyas of the physical body is supplied by
Subtle body. Subtle body supplies the required energy to Panchapranas through
subtle nadis. The sushumna’s outer
effulgence coverage of lifetrons, seven chakras, the lifetrons of subtlenadis
of panchabhootas, are controlled by subtle body.
Sushumna subtle nadi
spreads from mooladharachakra to Sahasraarachakra adjacent to Brahmarandhra of
Cerebrum.
The four rows of
sympatathetic nervous system existing on either side of Physical spinal cord
resembles subtle spinal cord. Ida,
pingala, and the Sushumna subtle nadis constitutes one row. Vajra in side
Sushumna is second row. Chitri in Vajra nadi is third row of subtle nerves. The
outer cover of Brahmanadi in side chitri is the fourth row.
This Brahmanadi is
the spinal cord of Karanasareer, Idea body.
33 beeds are there in
the physical spinal cord. They are for the protection of four rows of
sympatahatic nervous system.
The outermost nerves
consists of Dura matter membrane filled with lymph.
In side this nerves Arachnoid membrane
exists that protects the liquid that comes out from brain. In side this Pia
matter exists consisting of white & gray matter which itself is surrounded
by Vascular membrane. This consists of Afferent & efferent nerves . This is
the media by which Cerebrum, membranes, sense organs, action organs and other
important organs are connected. There
will be subtle canal in white & gray
matter.
The physical eye consists of white, Iris, and pupil.
Behind that in the subtle wis dom natured 3rd eye, there
will be Golden ring in place of Physical white.
There will be Blue
ring inside Golden ring. This Blue ring represents Iris.
There will be
5pointed Silver star inside Blue ring. This 5pointed Silver star
represents Pupil.
The extended hands to the sides, head, and two feet in
standing position of a man, represents the star. Head represents Akaas, the
extended hands representVayu and Agni, two feet represent Jal and Prithvi.

Some sadhaks are
controlling their food and offering different kinds of Prana and their
functions as oblations in the fire of the one common Prana. They are all
knowers of true fire yagna of wis dom
and are getting their karmic sins washed away.
Devide the stomach
into four parts. Keep two parts for solid food, one part for water, and the
last and fourth part empty. The foods
that creates gas are to be given up.
Yogis do Pranayama with controlled food habits.
Eating unpolished
rice is better than wheat for diseases like Blood pressure, arthiritis, and
Allergy.
There are 72,000
subtle nadis existing in our body. Ida on left, Pingala on Right, and Sushumna
subtle nadi in their centre are very important.
Effulgence is the
outer cover of Sushumna subtle nadi. This will control the physical works of
subtle lifetrons of the subtle body. Ida
and Pingala will organize the sypathatic nervous system in Physical body.
Sushumna extends upto
Sahasrara from Moolaadhara.
The Vajra in
Sookshmanadi extends upto Sahasrara from Swadhistaana. This will supply energy
for Contractions and rarefactions of Subtle body and for all the movements.
Chitri nadi in vajra
extends upto Sahasrara from Manipura.
This will coordinates the spiritual or consciousness related works of
subtle body.
The works of
Sushumna,Vajra, and chitri nadis are chiefly controlled by Sahasrara.
Sahasraara is the
brain of Subtle body. The effulgent rays of this Sahasrara are supplying the
energy required for Sahasrara and other six chakras. Physical Brain, the
Physical locations of chakras, nerve centres, from there to nerves for their
respective Physical works get energy from Sahasrara only.
Physical body is made
of flesh and blood.
Subtlebody is made of
lifetrons or pure Gnana effulgence.
Idea body or
Karanasareera is filled with only Consciousness or thouhtrons.
Karanasareera is the
source for the existence of Human consciousness. Karanasareera has brain of
pure wis dom,
and a spinal cord viz., Spiritual Brahmanadi. This will be enveloped in Chitri
subtle nadi. Chitri is of only Consciousness personified.
Sthoolasareera,
Physical body, has physical Chakra locations. Likewise Subtlebody, has Subtle
Chakra locations. Likewise Ideabody, has Idea Chakra locations. They are all
mutually juxtaposed.
Ideabody has seven
Idea chakras.
Physical Chakra
locations, Physical Brain, Subtle
Chakras, Subtle brain, Idea Chakras, and Idea brain work together.
In nutshell, all
Physical, Subtle, and Idea bodies work together as a whole unit.
Physical, and Subtle
bodies both are like tools and will
cooperate with Ideabody in respect of recognition, desire, and
experience.
The brain of Ideabody
is reservoir of Cosmic consciousness that is filled with eternal energy, eternal
consciousness, and eternal Happiness.
The manifestation of
Spirit or Paramatama is Vyashtaatma, ind ividual
soul. When Cosmic consciousness is entering into Idea body Chakras, then it
will express itself as pure wisdom in the Idea cerebrum, intuition in Medulla, Peace and tranquility
in Idea Visuddha chakra, as controller of Life force in Idea Anahata,
self-controller in Idea Manipura, as fortitude in Idea Swadhistana, and as
power of resistance as well as epicenter of incessant thoughts in Idea Mooladhara
chakra.
Gopyam and Rahasyam
are very important words in Sanskrit.
Gopyam = the concealed. Rahasyam= ra+hasyam= rahita haasyam= not to
be laughed of.
Sadhana is not to be
laughed of, it is a very serious business.
Thoughts are not
visible outwardly, they are invisible and concealed. Savam (dead body) will not
have any thoughts. Sivam (living one) is auspicious one. Sivam has thoughts.
Thoughts are the rays of consciousness.
Kavita(Poetry) comes
out of Kavi(Po et). Likewise Gopika has come out of Guptam. So
all Gopikas are different thoughts. So each thought, good or bad, is an
embodiment of consciousness.
Sarvam khalu idam
Brahma. The Consciousness exists everywhere. It is all penetrating/all
pervasive. Sun and sunrays are not two different things. Likewise
Srikrishnaparamatma and Srikrishna Consciousness are not two different things.
Srikrishnaparamatma
or Srikrishna Consciousness are not limited and tangible things.
Yogi will have only
one Thought i.e., Para matma thought.
Ordinary man will
have several thoughts, say 16,000 thoughts. No body can count the unlimited
thoughts that are emanated out of the mind. Just for the sake of it, it was
mentioned as 16,000 thoughts. In a huge gath ering,
one cannot count the number of people attended. They give the approximate numbers. Here is the same case in
respect of 16,000 thoughts mentioned.
16,000 Gopikas are in fact 16,000 thoughts. So there is Cosmic
consciousness (Srikrishnaparamatma)
behind each and every thought /Gopika. This is inner meaning of Srikrishna
is having 16,000 Gopikas.

The great amongst
Kurus, Oh Arjun, those who take the residual food considered as nectar after
burnt offerings in Yagna, shall get the eternal unity with Para brahman. Those who do not do this type of Yagna at
least once cannot have happiness in this world, then what to talk about the
happiness in the other worlds.
The real Yagna is
Pramnayama. So by using some Pranayama technique or the other, one should
control his life force. This life force is being transformed into five airs
required by the body in a required magnitude failing which the body becomes
disease proned.
Pranavayu protects
decay of body.
Vyanavayu protects
the body from anaemia, and low and high blood pressures.
Samanavayu protects
the body from weak digestion.
The organs, muscles,
tandons, and membranes etc. should not
grow more than required. Udaanavayu protects this.
Apanavayu protects
the body from the growth of toxins, Gastric problems, tumors, the growth of
Cancer cells and piles problems.
When the Cosmic
consciousness enters Idea body, it is transformed into Idea Consciousness. When
this Idea Consciousness enters into Subtle body it is transformed into Subtle
Consciousness. When this Subtle Consciousness enters into Physical body, then
this Subtle Consciousness is transformed into Physical Consciousness. The
spirituality of Cosmic Consciousness will be getting distorted due to these
transformations. The Physical Consciousness is the lowest amongst all the
consciounesses, Physical, Subtle, and Idea. .
The pure wis dom is manifested as
discriminating intelligence (Buddhi).
That Buddhi is manifested as
Blind mind, the slave of senses. Lastly
that mind is manifested as inert
physical body.

All these Physical

Physical fire Yagnas.

knowing from them by questioning them with humility during their convenient
time. Do faithful service to them, then they will definitely preach you.
God will send the
Sadguru to a Sadhak who eagerly pray HIM for this.
The sadhak may worship Sadguru in three ways
with affection.
1) he can submit
himself or surrender himself totally to Sadguru.
2) he can remove his
doubts by questioning the Sadguru with meaningful questions.
3) by serving Guru with
dedication he may please sadguru.
The sadhak should
practice his Sadhana regularly on daily basis and should behold his Sadguru in
Kootastha with love and affection and then get rid of his doubts.

The consciousness of
ordinary man is limited to Mooladhara to Manipura, Swadhistaana, and Manipura
chakras. These chakras are called Samsara(Family confined) Chakras. These three
chakras are called the span of Brahmagrandhi in Yoga parlance. His
consciousness is confined to this Brahmagrandhi and hence subjugated to Karma.
Manipura, Anahata,
and Vis uddha chakras are the span of
Rudragrandhi. Till the vichchedana of Rudragrandhi in Sadhana, the Sadhak is
bound by Karma. After crossing these two Grandhis, the Sadhak will grow beyond Karma and will not
be bound by it.

He Arjun ,
as enkindled fla me will burn the firewood and
make into ash, similarly the fire of wis dom burns all our Karma into ashes.
Four types of Karma
and its results:--
1)Purus haakaara:
The karmas that are done in the present time influenced by will power. They are
not done as per the influence of past karmas. These are ind ependent of past karmas.
2)Prarabdha: The
karmas that are done in the present time influenced by past karmas. These are
dependent of past karmas. They are done without utilizing the will power
provided by God especially to the mankind.
They are impediments to the growth of man, physically and mentally. The karmas will give the results right from
the onset of birth, now and then. Sometimes they will wait for the right time
to yield the results.
3) Para rabdha:The
past karmas that are not yet given the results in the present time. They will
wait for the time to yield the results
in this birth or the next birth. Every new karma is formed as per the
design of the past karmas. This way, the karmas will be getting repeated and
will reflect as new or bad samskaras, habits, in our lives. Our past, present, and future lives are in a
way dependent on the good and bad results of the karmas we do. Under the influence of Maya, del usion, man does not
know about his past and future. This
Maya is also manifested in a righteous way by Para brahman.
This righteous Maya is christened as Karma Bandham, bondage. So man should get
of this bondage with Sadhana.
4) Prahadara: Yogi
with his Kriyayoga sadhana can burn these above three karmas, Purushaakaara,
Prarabdha, and Para rabdha.

The one who is dedica ted to his Guru, and Scriptures, one pointedness on
Spiritual sadhana, the one who made
senses as his slaves, is obtaining Pure wis dom.
Having got such wis dom, he is obtaining peace and
tranquility soon.
Man is addicted to trivial
sense pleasures from the inception of birth. If he obtains the eternal
beatitude before these sense pleasres, then he will not be having any longing
for sense pleasures, small in comparision.
Nobody will ask for a cold and untasteful food, if fresh and tasty food
is available.

The man without wis dom, dedication, and
hesitation, is bound to be doomed. The
man of doubts will not get happiness in both the worlds.
The wisdomless man
bound by sense pleasures is an utterly useless character. Such man can nev er
aspire for Pure wis dom
which is most virtuous.
In stead of inaction,
action is better. Doing physical karma will lead to exercise of mind and that inturn
will lead to spirituality at a latter date gradually.
The inactive man is
like a paralysis patient. The rotating light in a light house will show the path to the ships in a ocean. When the
captain of the ship sees darkness, he will entertain doubts about his
approaching port city. Likewise, the depender of senses and sense objects, will
be always entertaining doubts of his intelligence. So the intuition gained with
Sadhana is superior and the most dependable.
As such the man should not have any doubts on his progress of sadhana
because that will not give him happiness in this world or in the heaven.

some times you are appreciating Karma yoga with sacrifing quality and some
times only Karmayoga. Kindly let me know which one is better amongst these
two.
Without doing Karma
dedication does not occur. Then that dedication makes the sadhak to contemplate
on the object only and nothing else. Hence without doing Karma practically one
cannot have the knowledge of that Karma. Only by reading a book you cannot fly
an aeroplane or ship. So karma and Gnana yogas are interdependent.

superior to karma with sacrifice is superior yoga.
Karmayoga and karma
with sacrifice, both yogas are not
independent. Without doing Karma one cannot gain knowledge of that Karma. Then
it is advisable to do tyaga or sacrice of that Karma. In fact how one can do
charity without having money. Inaction lead to sluggardness. So do Karma and then do sacrifice.

the life force united with Para brahman is
called AnanyaBhakti, the intense dedication. This sadhana transforms the
physical ego into purified divine ego that cognizes the self as divine Soul.

The man with

happily in this body town of N i n e
doors feeling as though he is neither the doer nor doing any thing.
The Cosmic
consciousness from Para brahman comes down in
descending order, and transforms into physical life force and will be carried
to physical senses, and nerves from the craniel nerves.
Physical nerve
centres are the are main gateways of
flow of life force. In this process of out flow of life force man who
does not do any Yoga sadhana at all will accumulate many a number of toxins. It
is more so in the people who consumes and becomes a slave to narcotics, alchol,
and tobacco smoking. It is more so in people who do not do any physical
exercises and idlers. Their nerve centres are blocked by more more and toxins.
As such as they are more and more addicted to sense pleasures and finally they
are destroyed. They move far away from Para brahman.
Aasanas(Po stures): These will remove the contamitants from the
nerve centre filled with toxins and purify them. Scavenging the nerve centres, the life force
will not get blocked and hence flow freely. This will invigorates the body and
hence the sadhak will become active.
This body is useful to the Sadhana.

claiming the ownership of Karma, doing the Karma, and the results of
Karma.
Man with will power

Those who behold a

eat the cooked meat of dog, equally are the men of self realization.
The state of unity a
sadhak gets with Para brahman during Sadhana
period only is called Savikalpa Samadhi.
In what ever work the
sadhak is doing but still anchored to Para brahman
during Sadhana or not, is called Nirvikalpa Samadhi state.
On the screen we may
be seing several animals, men, women, and other figures, when we look behind
then we will find that all these different forms on the screen are culminating
from one cinema projector as same or similar light particles with different
intensities. This is how a sadhak who
has reached the state of Nirvikalpa Samadhi will behold.

The one whose mind is

such people are considered to be dwelling in Para brahman

Man will see a cinema
of 21,600 days & nights in a life span of 60 Years. If he does not perceive
it as the dream of Para brahman, then he will
fall into the trap of births & deaths. A kriya yogi perceives it as a
Drama.

Chakorapakshi(Greek
partridge):
The fortnight from
Amavasya(New Mo on)
to Pau rnami(Full
Moon) is called Suklapaksha or Lunar growing period as per Hindu Almanac.
There is a Religious
vow, a course of conduct or living which one resolves to adhere to. The Sadhak
will start with one cudgel of food on the first day of Sukla paksha. Then the
Sadhak will gradually increases his food in take at the rate of one per day.
Ex: First day one cudgel, second day two cudgels, like this on 15th
day i.e., Paurnami(Full moon day) 15 cudgels.
The fortnight from Pau rnami(Full Moon)to
Amavasya(New Mo on) is called Krishnapaksha or waning period of
lunar as per Hindu Almanac. The sadhak in this period gradually deceases his
food in take at the rate of one per day. Ex: First day 15 cudgels, second day
14 cudgels, like this on 15th day i.e., Amavasya(New moon day) Zero
cudgels. This is called Krichra
Chandraayanavrat, a religious observance.
The Chakorapakshi
follows this principle. It appears as though this bird is following this
religious observance. That is the reason this bird is having a special significance
in religious parlance. In spirituality,
the sadhaks take this bird as an ideal to follow certain food restrictions
while doing Sadhana in order to get unision with God, the Para brahman.
Jaatakapakshi:(Jataka
Bird):
The mother bird will leave the egg while
flying in the sky. Befoe the egg strikes the earth, the egg becomes a young
bird and again flies in the sky. The young bird will have a hole in its neck.
The mother bird takes the young one and flies up above towards the rain side in
such a way that the drops of rain water enters the hole of the young one’s
neck.
Such are the
principles of the above birds in respect of getting food. Beholding the systematizm of the above
birds in respect of getting foods, the sadhak should scrupulously follow the
principles in respect of control of food, senses etc., zealously in order to
get united with God, the Prabrahman. The sadhak should have a intense longing
for the rain waters of grace of Para brahman.
Kriyayoga can be
practiced by anybody, no caste, no religion, and no race.
With the practice of
Kriya yoga, the sadhak will be able to control the senses form sense objects.
He will withdraw life force from the senses and hence be able to control mind
and intellect. He will direct his mind, intellect, and ego into the
Moolaadhara, Swadhishtaana, Manipura, Anahata, Visuddha, and Agna chakras of
Merudanda.
Agna chakra is
conncted magnetically to the Third Eye. This Third eye is connected to
Sahasrara which exists in the centre of Cerebrum. There the Kriyayogi melts his mind,
Intellect, and Feelings in Soul Fire and perceives himself as a pure soul.
The physical eye can
beholds the things existing in front of it upto some distance only. The third
eye can behold the things that are existing in Physical, Subtle, and Idea
worlds. The Kriyayogi whose mind enters the third eye beholds his subtle body
initially. Gradually he will see the whole subtle world, and then he will
behold his own configuration as a part of it. He can not make the life force,
and consciousness to enter into spinal cord and the chakras without beholding
the third eye. This leads to salvation.
This way Kriyayoga
has been given to us by Srikrishna Paramata in Srimadbgavadgita through Arjuna.

and leaves fire or the one who does not do any karma at all, shall not become a
Sannyasi , or Yogi.
One has to do the assigned kriyayoga
karmas and should go within. Without
doing this, just by doing Physical sacrifices merely, one cannot become a Sannyasi.

The Muni who is
desirous of devine union with Para brahman has
to follow the techniques of Pranayama as tools, and inaction has to be his way
for the one who already obtained the devine union.
With the aid of
kriyayoga pranayama techniques, the sadhak will realize the physical things as
a dream. He withdraws his mind from them and then get united with Para brahman.
After crossing the
river or rivulet, raft is not required.
Similarly after getting united with Para brahman,
no more sadhana is required. Till such time Yoga sadhana is required.

The sadhak who sheds
his inclination towards Senses, sense objects, and results of Karma, is said to
be a very good yogi.
The thoughtlessness, and brea thlessness, acquired from Kriyayoga
sadhana is called Samadhi sthti or ecstatic state. That sadhak is called
Yogaaroodha or the embodiment of Yoga.
In this state, the sadhak will desist from all the businesses of senses
, sense objects, and ego. ‘Iam not the doer, God is the doer.’—this determined
feeling will be fully fortified.
The Cos mic
Consciousness shall reach cerebrum through the Gate way of Medulla Oblongata. Medulla is connector of
cerebrum and spinal cord.
Medulla is having two
rays. It is like a knife having sharpness on both sides. It has + and — both
electricities. That is the reason for duality. Hence man will have two eyes,
two ears, two nostrils, two tongues(there exists a separator like line), two
lips, two hands, two legs, two kidneys, two brains, two types of nervous
systems, and two lungs etc.
The cosmic
consciousness is stored in Cerebrum. From there IT will be directed to flow
through Sahasraara, Agna+, Agna—, Vis uddha,
Anahata, Manipura, Swadhistaana, and Mooladhara chakras. From there the Cosmic
Consciousness will be distributed to
nerve centres and nerves in required proportions.
The + and — both
electricities in Medulla Oblongata will make the life force, electrons,
protons, and atoms come together and construct or create the dual organs like
two eyes, two ears, and two lungs etc.
Our thinking atoms
are transformed into lifetrons, electrons, protons, and atoms. Atoms are
transformed into cells, cells into tandoms, bones, and nerves.
The + and — both
electricities in Medulla Oblongata are not only supply electricities to Sense
organs, and action organs, but also help with their physical vibrations in the
construction of physical membranes etc.
Kriyayogi will direct all his outgoing life
forces into the spinal cord chakras. Then he will be able to behold all the
chakras in the spinal cord through the third eye in Kootastha.

Living in solitude,
with controlled senses, without any desire, not accepting anything from others,
having a fixity of mind always on Soul, the Kriya yogi conducts himself.
The sadhak who does
intensive Meditation should do his Sadhana concentrating on his Sadguru, or
with his Sadguru.
The advanced Sadhak
should fix the form of his Sadguru and meditate in his Kootastha with or
without the physical presence of Sadguru. The sadhak should intensely think
about his Sadguru in the initial stages of Sadhana. This way the Cosmic
vibrations will be silently reaching the Sadhak through his Sadguru.

The sitting place for
Sadhana should be a clean one, neither too high nor too low, covered with kusha grass on which there

kootastha, controlling his senses, should meditate for purification of his
consciousness.
Darbhasan: This Kush a grass
is available in almost all places of the world. This will insulate body to the
earth, and will not allow the moisture to make contact with the skin. It gives
a cush ioning
effect. In this present day world cush ion pillow can be used.
Deer or Tiger
skin: This will create the heat by which
the Kundalini awakening will be quickened. One should not kill the tiger or
deer for this. The skins of the dead animals should be utilized. A woolen rug covered with a silken cloth can
be used in the present day world.

The Kriya Dhyanayogi
must keep his neck, spinal cord straight and erect. He should not look hither and thither, make
his gaze fixed in kootastha, the place between his eye brows. He should be peaceful without any fear
consciousness and maintain celibacy. He must meditate on me and me only and
should not have any other goal except reaching me. He should be in ecstatic unity with me by
trustimg me.
By keeping the gaze
in kootastha, the sadhak, then the third eye in the kootastha will be opened. The opened third eye will pull all the
outgoing life force towards it.
One will find the
gigantic milky ocean(ksheerasaagar) in it. That will convert into infinite
colours. Not only that several opulent stars also will be visible in that
ocean. With the gradual ascendment of dedication, devotion, and pure love,
there appears in it a five pointed silver star. When the sadhak penetrates into
it the love will be completely purified, he will get intuition, the unblemished
pure wis dom.
Then he will enter into Srikrishna Consciousness, the God in Creation, and then
into Cos mic Consciousness, the God beyond
Creation.. that will provide the sadhak with eternal beatitude.
The sadhakmwho roams
in Brahma is real Brahmachari, and not the one who is unmarried. The sadhak should enter into Om kar, Sabda Brahmam, if he hears it, lest into the Great
effulgence, if he beholds it.

required.

be completely mitigated from the mind.
The sadhak should not
do sadhana in the following conditions:
1)
The places of extreme cold and heat.
2)
The places fronm where the stanching or more
fragrant smell emanating, and
3)
The places from where the sounds are emanating.
He should do his

The unsteady mind has

Mind is like a soiled
cloth impregnated with habits accumulated from several births. The soiled cloth appears to be more dirty than before after every washing.
When the outer dirt layer is washed out, then the inner dirt layer which is
subtler than the outer layer will occupy its place. The cloth becomes cleanser
after 3 or 4 four washings. Likewise
when the outer layer of thoughts and habits are annihilated, then the inner
layers of past births will take their place.
The mind becomes pure and reaches
thoughtlessness state with continuous, incessant, and intensive sadhana.
The state of thoughtlessness state depends upon both the longevity and
intensity of the sadhak. After complete
eradication of thoughts the state of thoughtlessness is reached.

Put a handfull of
soil into a glass jar containg stilled water.
After some time that soil will settle in that water jar. The solid things will settle at the bottom, the subtle things will float on the top, and
semi solid things will be moving in the middle of the jar.
Likewise the thoughts
of Sadhak will be disturbing him in the initial stages of Sadhana. Not only it
appears to the sadhak as though more and more thoughts are emanating due to Sadhana.
If you do work then only one can judge ‘what you did is right or wrong.’ If you
don’t do any work, then the question of judging right or wrong does not arise.
That does not mean that in action is right. If the sadhak continues his sadhana
without any despair, then the thoughtlessness state can be achieved in due
course.

attains the blessedness of continuous mergence in Spirit.

The one who beholds
ME pervading in all beings, and perceives as the same Spirit existing in
everything, serving Me without any diferentiality, such a Yogi will be anchored
to me in whatever way he resides—whether he is in Samadhi state or doing
worldly Karma.
The Samadhies one
will get in Mooladhara, Swadhisthana, Manipura, and Anahata chakras are called
Sampragnaata Samadhies, the doubtful ones. In these chakras the doubt of sadhak, ‘God exists
or not’, is not mitigated.
The Samadhies one
will get in, Visuddha, Agna,
Sahasrara chakras are called

He Arjun, the yogi
who compares the misery or happiness in all other beings with himself, and
feels that they are also like me, part of the same spirit, treats them with equanimity, such a yogi said
to be the supreme.
Caste is formed as
per the degree of advancement in sadhana, and not by biological birth. The one
who does not do Kriya yoga Sadhana at all is Sudra.
The sadhana in
Mooladhara chakra provides and improves devine wisdom, clairvoyance, and
smelling power of nose. The one who does
not do Sadhana in this Chakra will get his happiness destroyed gradually.
The Sadhana in
Swadhisthana chakra provides and improves self control, wis dom growth, and tasting power of tongue.
The one who does not do Sadhana in this Chakra will get his wisdom destroyed
gradually.
The Sadhana in
Manipura chakra provides and improves immunization power, seeing power of
eye,and protects from evil forces. The one who does not do Sadhana in this
Chakra will be subjected to diseases, and spell of evil forces gradually.
The Sadhana in
Anahata chakra provides and improves love, touching power of skin. The one who
does not do Sadhana in this Chakra will be subjected to skin diseases, and
feeling of hatred gradually.
The Sadhana in
Visuddha chakra provides and improves peace and tranquility, hearing power of
ear. The one who does not do Sadhana in this Chakra will be subjected to
restlessness gradually.
Kundalini force is
called Vasuki, and MeruParvat is Spinal cord.
To utilize Swasa(brea th) as Astra(weapon)
is called Swastra. Gradually Swastra has become Sastra in usa ge. Chrning
of Meruparvat means sending the Kundalini force i.e., Vasuki through Sushumna
subtle nadi.
The outgoing life
force i.e., Kundalini while going through Sushumna, it will pass through
Mooladhara, swadhisthana, Manipura, Anahata, Vis uddha,
Agna, and then to Sahasrara. This is
done through Kriya yoga sadhana.
While passing through
Mooladhara, Swadhisthana, Manipura, Anahata, and Vis uddha,
the Kundalini life force will inherit the qualities of those respective Chakras. The kundalini snake now will have five hoods
viz., sabda(sound), sparsa(touch), roopa(seeing), Rasa(taste), and Gandha
(smell). This snake is called five hooded Kaleeyasarpa(Snake). When this five
hooded snake reaches Agna Chakra in Kootastha, then the poison viz., Kama , krodha, lobha, moha, mada, and maatsarya, in that
is removed. This is called
Kaaleeyamardanam or removing the poison from this snake by SriKrishna. Agna
chakra is called Srikrishna chakra.
In Agna chakra in
kootastha the sadhak will experience
doubtless(asampragnata savikalpa Samadhi or srashta Samadhi). Here the Cos mic consciousness is appeared as Great(Maha)
effulgence(Bharata). Here the Sadhak and Para brahman
juxtaposed to each other.
This Mahabharata is
called Vaitarinee. The sadhak will be endowed with Clairvoyance.
Crossing this effulgent Vaitarinee and making the
kundalinee life force to reach Sahasrara Chakra will provide the Sadhak with
Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the greatest ecstatic union with God, the Para brahman.
The Sadhak will be only witnessee, the Saksheebhoota. He will be completely
liberated from the circuit of mundane existence.

Arjuna said:
He Krishna ,
you taught me the Yoga, the union with God that is to be attained with steady

The sadhak has to
make the outgoing sleeping Kundalinee life force awakened and to go within and reach
Sahasrara through Sushumna subtle nadi with steady, regular, and incessant
Kriya yoga sadhana.

He Krishna ,
verily, mind is unstable, tumultuous, powerful, and obstinate. Wind is
uncontrollable. Likewise I feel mind is difficult to master.
Pranayamam is
initially difficult to practice. But it is easier to a Kriya yogi. If
life force is controlled then mind will be controlled and viceversa.
Mind and breath are complimentary to each other. The sadhak has to control his
mind or life force to get united with Spirit, the Para brahman. The Kriyayogi will control his life force and
get united with the Spirit.
The kriyayogi does
his sadhana by keeping his tongue into the gullet. This is called
khecharimudra. For each and every brea th in and brea th
out , the sadhak has to see that his tongue should not be slipped out. If the
tongue slips out then the mind will become unsteady. So the sadhak has to put
the tongue back into the gullet. If the sadhana is practiced this way, then the
tongue will be steady and will not be slipped out. Then both mind and life
force will be steady.

Suppose you started
reading a 500 pages novel and you went to sleep after reading 300 pages. After
waking up you need not read all the 500 pages again. 1 or 2 pages you can go
back and then you can complete the reading.
Likewise the uncompleted Kriya yoga sadhana in the past birth canbe
continued in this birth from where he
has left. Normal ly
a Kriya yogi will achieve salvation within four births.

Beatitude because of the power of Kriya yoga sadhana he has been doing for the
past several births
By birth itself some are extradrdinarily
intelligent. This is due to the homework done by them in their past
births.
From the time of
birth itself some will be suffering from one disease or the other. This is due
to the bad habits like taking narcotics etc.,
in their past births.
As you sow, so you reap. So do good in the
present without bothering for the results.
Health, Education,
Courage, Timidity, and diseases in this birth are the results of the good or
bad work done by the ind ividual.

The sadhak may hear OM sound or find effulgence in his kriyayoga sadhana. If
he merges in OM then he will find himself expanding along with OM sound. Then he will practically experience the feeling
of Omnipotentness, Omnipresentness, and Om niscientness. If he merges in the effulgence also he will
get the same feeling clearly and vividly.
Then nothing else remains to be achieved.

One out of thousands
is making an effort to attain salvation. In those only one out of many
thousands is really knowing me fully in fact.
Karma is of three
types, Sanchita, Prarabdha, and Aagami.
We cannot spend the
money in one day earned by us. We will
keep it in Bank for future use. The money kept like thus is called Fixed
deposit. Sanchita Karma is akin to it.
The money we bring
out from Bank for present use is called current account. Prarabdha karma is
akin to it.
The money we bring
from our bank account may be utilized for good, bad, or goodand bad mixed work.
The Agami karma is akin to it and depends on this.
There are twelve
Rashis in the Zodiac. (1) Aeries(Mesha),(2)Taurus(Vrishabha), (3) Gemini
(Mithuna), (4) Cancer(Kataka), (5)Leo(Simha), (6)Virgo(Kan ya), (7)Libra(Tula),
(8)Scorpio(Vrischikam), (9)Saggitarus (Dhanussu), (10)Capricorn(Makara), (11)Aquarius (Kumbha),
and (12)Pisces(Meena).
Sun in his journey
stays at the rate of one mont h
in each Rashi. This is called
Sankramanam. There are 12 Soorya Sankramanams in a yea of 12 months. So one year of Prarabdha Karma is experienced
by the individual when Sun completes 12 Samkramanams in 12 Rashis.
10 lakhs years of
normal health is required to burn our Past or Sanchita Karma. This is highly
impossible to do in one life span of any ind ividual.
Kriyayoga sadhana will make this impossible task a possible one in one life
span itself. It is an aeroplane way of reaching God union.
The strong willed
Kriya yoga Sadhak can do 10lakhs Kriyas in none life span itself and then get
united with Spirit.
One kriya = one year
of development or burning of one year
Karma.
The sadhak can
achieve 10 lakhs years of development by doing 1000 kriyas per day per 3
years.
Ordinarily in 6, 12,
18, 24, 30, 36, 42, or 48 years this development can be achieved by doing
Kriyas in a systematic manner regularly everyday. In case the kriyayogi who dies without
achieving this result completely, he will carry forward to the next birth this
result of Kriyayoga Sadhana. It will not go waste as he need not start
afresh.
The life of Kriyayogi
is not subjected to the directions of Sanchita Karma. His life will be guided
by the direction given by Soul.
Kriyayoga should take
limited food and practice his sadhana in
solitude.
Kriyayoga consists of
Hathayoga(Energisation exercises), Layayoga( SOHAM & OM
techniques), Karmayoga(Service), Mantrayoga(Root word chanting in Chakras), and
Rajayoga(Pranayama techniques).

My nature is
manifested into eight divisions: earth, water, fire, air, ether, mind,
intellect, and ego.
The vibrations
emanated from Parabrahman are manifested as life force. Gradually life force
vibrations are manifested as electrons, protons, atoms, molecules,
cells, tissues, organic, and inorganic matter.
Cells, tissues,
organic and inorganic matters, atoms, subatomic particles and energies are
manifested due to vibrating life force and the thoughts of Para brahman.
The physical world
formation is this way only when viewed spiritually.

Arjuna, this worldly(AparaPrakriti) nature is very trivial. The one which is
different from this, that sustains the
whole Cosmos, that takes the form of living beings, is termd as the supreme and it is called
Spiritual Nature(Para Prakriti), know this.
The ego of man works
in conjunction with the nature of Parabrahman i.e., Apara prakriti works in
conjunction with Para Prakriti.
The subtle and Idea
egoisms also work in conjunction with Para prakriti.
With that both these bodies, Subtle and Kaarana bodies, become conscious. The
pure soul is only the witnessee of the works done through the human body. This pure soul is called Kootastha Chaitanyam
or Krishna Consciousness. This consciousness expresses itself as OM sound. This is connected on one side with Physical and
impure worldly nature(Apara prakriti), and on the other side it is connected
with pure Spiritual (Aparaprakriti) Nature.
This is a bridge
between Para a prakriti and Aparaprakriti.
These three
consciousnesses, Karana(Idea), Sookshma (Subtle), and sthoola(Physical) worlds,
micro and macro both, are governed by this Om
sound, Sabdabrahmam.

We cook our food in
light but not in darkness. We use oil, salt, pepper, chilly powder, and
vegetables while preparing a curry(Subji). Light rays also put in that curry

food.

The culprit murderer will be jailed but not the instrument used for
committing the crime. Likewise God is
not responsible for our good or bad deeds.
Life force is Para brahman. Without life force nothing can be done. In

Maladosha: The glass

Aavarana Dosha: It
will obscure the reality of SAT and make IT to appear differently. In darkness
we mistake the rope as a snake.
Both Mala, and
Avarana Doshas are caused by Tamo Guna.
Vikshepana Dosha: The
dualities, attraction and repulsion, misery and happiness, selfishness, Love
and hatred, contentment and discontentment, and Arishadvargaas, are called
Vikshepana Dosha. They occur due to Rajo Guna influence.
Karana Sareera is influenced in this way by
Mala and Avarana Doshas due to the influence of Tamo Guna, and Vikshepana Dosha

Parabrahman has

mankind only—the involvement in that as well as will power to come out of that

The afflicted, the
one who wanted know God, the man who wanted to have prosperity, the one who

The afflicted: These
people will pray God for their selfishness when they are surrounded by problems
and forget the God when the problems are faded out. They are better lot than
atheists. At least this way, they will
make it a habit to remember God.
The one who wanted
know God: These people pray God to know the divinity of God without any
conditions and desires.
The man who wanted to
have prosperity: These people pray God for both HIM and His gifts. They do
Kriya yoga Sadhana and desires happiness on earth and heaven.
The one who wanted to

These are the saints, sages, and ascetics who will always be in ecstatic unity

The results so
obtained by that man of small mind is destroyable. Those who worship deities
are getting united with those deities,
and those who worship ME are attaining ME.
Whatever Broadcasting
Station is required, that station has to be tuned. If a tumbler is dipped in
holy Ganges, then one will get one tumbler of holy Ganges
water. Likewise in whatever form we worship God, God appears to us in that form
only.

Aadhyaatmam? What is Karma? What is Aadhibhootam? What is called AdhiDaivam?
Who is Adhiyagna in this body? How to know Him? How you can be known with self

Sri Bhagavan uvaacha;
Aksharam Parabrahma paramam
Swabhaavodhyaatma uchyate
Bhootabhaavodbhaavakaro 3
Sri Bhagavan said:
He Arjun,
The Supreme Spirit which is ind estructible is called Brahman. The ind ividual Soul and
Kootastha Chaitanya which exists due to Spirit is called Adhyaatma. The Aum,
Cosmic Vibration or Vis arga, that causes
births, deaths and dissolution of beings and their various natures is called
Karma.
1) Brahmam:
Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and Om niscient. This
is called Sat. This is beyond Naada(Om Sound),
Bindu(Energy), and Kala(Effulgence). IT
will manifest Itself as Kootastha Chaitanya.
This expresses Itself as unreal and physical Cosmos
through OM and three Gunas, Satwa(positive),
Rajas(Zero), and Tamas(negative), which is visible to the naked eyes. This OM is also called Visarga.
2) AAdhyaatmam:
This Kootastha Chaitanya is called Adhi Atma. This is also called TAT.
3) Karmamu: The result of wis dom
that emanates from OM is called Karma. It is
having cause and also effect. The whole world is bound by cause and
effect. Living beings and Cos mos shall give the bad and good results as per their
respective duties.
Karmas are two types, worldly and Godly, Laukika and
alaukika. Ablutions, occupation, eating food are worldly
Karmas.
Sandhyavandanam(chanting Gayatri Mantra), worshipping God, Fire
ceremonies, and Kriya yoga sadhana.
These worldly and Godly actions(Karmas) are again devided
into three types, Sanchita(Past), Prarabdha(Present), and Aagaami(Future).
If Godly actions are done with expectations(kartritwa
bhavana) then it is bondage, without expectations(Nivritti) it is called salvation.
We cannot spend the money earned by us in one day or one mont h. Likewise the
results of Karma in this birth cannot be experienced in the same birth. They
will go on accumulating. These
accumulated karmas are called Sanchita Karmas.
Prabdhakarma is akin to the money we bring in from the
bank to spend for that day or that mont h.
Aagaami depends upon the spending of the money we bring
in. If we spend it for good cause then good Aagami Karma is added, if it is for
bad purpose then bad Aagami karma is added.
Sanchita is past,
Prarabdha is present, and Aagaami is future Karma.
Praarabdham bhogate bhunjaat
tatwagnaanena sanchitam
aagaami dwvidham proktam

The Prarabdha karma, present karma, has to be
experienced. If one has the feeling with
complete knowledge ‘’Iam the God’’, then the Sanchita Karma , wi ll
be mitigated. The attachment or hatred towards anybody will attract AAgaami
karma.
4) Adhibhootam, (5)Adhidaivam, (6) Adhiyagna, (7) How YOU
will be known through controlled feelings, and (8) Vis arga

He Arjun, the one
that gets destroyed is called Adhibhoota. The Physical existence, micro or
macro both, is called the Physical Cosmos.
The Astral existence,
micro or macro both, is called Adhidaivata.
The Causal existence,
micro or macro both, is called Adhiyagna.
How YOU will be known through controlled feelings?—
The worldly
man yields to the Maya and forgets the Parabrahman. The Kriya yogi merges with divine vibrations
of OM and reaches the source, Parabrahman.

The one who chants or
memorizes me at the time of leaving this physical body shall undoubtedly get MY
Form.
Today if one is able
to solve a difficult mathematical equation or singing a complex classical song
without any effort and easy is due to the fact of tremendous home work done
by him in the past. This proficiency cannot be achieved in one
day. It is mastered over a period of time. Likewise the sadhak who does sadhana
regularly shall leave his physical body while memorizing the name of God till
the last moment and shall merge with Para brahman
undoubtedly.

So do the war of your
nature by keeping me in your mind always. This way if you completely surrender
yourself in body and mind then you will get meonly.
The regular and
incessant sadhana is the pre requisite to attain unity with God. With sucha
sadhana if sadhak fixes his mind on Parabrahman, then it will be easier to
attain HIM. This is made possible with Kriyayoga. Kriyayoga is Swadharma, one’s
own duty, and this sadhana is real war.

Parabrahman, then he gets united with HIM. Parabrahman is Omniscient, the
origin less Purana Purusha, Controller and organizer of Cosmos, subtler amongst
subtle things, basis of Cos mos, beyond logic, self effulgent and infinite times
more effulgent than Sun, beyond ignorance and obscurity.

The vedic seers who
describes THAT as destructionless, where the desireless sadhaks are entering,
desiring which sadhaks are maintaing celibacy—I am narrating about THAT Brahman
briefly.
Karana sareera(Idea
body):
Anandamaya kosa
(Blissful sheath) is Karanasareera. It comprises three Gunas, Satwa, Rajas, and
Tamas, the primordial ignorance, form of del usion. It is an armour of ignorance. This is the origin of Subtle five
Electricities, Aakaasa(Space), Vayu(Air), Agni(Fire), Jal(Water), and
Prithvi(Earth). This is root cause of
Creation.
Sookshmasareera
(Subtle body):
Vignaanamaya, (wisdom
sheath), Manomaya(mind sheath), and Pranamaya (Life force sheath), together
comprises Sookshma sareera.
Untainted
Panchamahabhootas(Five electricities),
Pancha karmendriyas(Five Action organs), Pancha Gnanendriyas (powers of
hearing, touch,seeing, taste, and smell), Five Pranas, and Antahkarana(Mind,
Intellect, Feelings, and Ego).
Sthoola
sareera(Physical body):
The physical body is
made of tainted negative traits(Tamo Guna).
It comprises five physical Panchamahabhootaas ,
Pa ncha Gnaanendriyas(Sense
organs) made of these physical Pancha mahabhootaas, Pancha Karmendriyas(Action
organs), Pancha Praanaas(Five Airs) and
Antahkarana.
Avasthas (States):
They are of three
types, Jagrata, Swapna, and Sushupti.
Jagrataavastha(Waking
State):
The Cosmic
consciousness initially enters into Kaarana(Idea body) sareera, then to
sookshmaSubtle body) sareera, and from there it enters into Sthoola(Physical)
sareera, by which all the three bodies become active and conscious.
Swapnavastha,
Avachetanaavastha or Nidravastha (Sleeping state):
Karana(Idea
body)sareera and Sookshma(Subtle body) sareera, and Sthoola(Physical) sareera,
both the bodies become active and
conscious. Physical body will be inactive and sleepy.
Sushupti or
Adhichetanaavastha(Super conscious level:
In deep sleep and
deep meditation both subtle and physical bodies will be inactive. The senseless
ignorant form of Karanasareera is merged with Cos mic
consciousness and the rest subtle and Physical will be inactive.

He Arjun, the sadhak
who one pointedly thinks about me day in and day out, shall attain me easily.
Kundalinee saadhana
is called Srividya. In this five important things are to be followed
scrupulously. They are:
Aahaaraniyamam(Food
conditions): To eat saatwik food.
Aatmaniyamam(Self
conditions): To control the senses
Nivaasa
niyamam(Dwelling conditions): Not to stay in unwanted places.
Nivaasa
niyamam(Character pattern): Not to use undesirable means to earn money.
Samsarga
niyamam(friendship conditions): Not to do unwanted friendship.
After following Yama,
Niyama, AAsana, and Pratyaahaara, if the sadhak does 12 good Praanaayaamaas,
then he will go within. This is called Pratyaahaar or Antarmukhatwam.
If the he cannot go
within with this, then the sadhak should go on adding multiples 12 Pranayaamas
till he goes within.
If the sadhak does
144 good Praanaayaamaas, then he will get Dhaarana i.e., concentration of mind.
If the sadhak cannot
get Dhaarana with this, then he should go on adding multiples 12 Pranayaamas
till he gets concentration of mind.
If the sadhak does
good Praanaayaamaas of 1728 or more, then his meditation will be stabilized.
In one sitting, in
one posture, if the sadhak does 20736 good Praanaayaamaas, then he will get
Samaadhi, the ecstatic union with God, at that time of that day.
This body is Rath, Chari ot.
Soul/self is Rathika,
the charioteer.
Intellect is the
Driver.
Mind is the reins.
Senses are Horses.

The one who reaches

If the Kundalinee
power of sadhak is settled in Sahasraara Chakra, then he will get Nirvikalpa
Samadhi, the highest state of ecstatic union with God.
The next stage is
Mahasamadhi, the eternal unision with God, the Para brahman.
For him there is no furth er
mundane existence. In case such sadhak takes birth, it is only for the welfare
of mankind.

The syllable
combination of Akaara(Physical), uk aara

cosmos consisting of Physical, subtle,

which is nothing but Para brahman only.
Every night these
Physical, subtle, and Idea worlds become
inactive and merge into Cos mos. This is called
eternal del use
or dissolution, Nitya Pralaya.

One night of Brahma =

One day of Brahma =

This Brahma is called Karya Brahma, Action
Brahma.
One day of Karya
Brahma = 2000yugas
The del use or dissolution between one yuga and
another yuga is called AvaantaraPralay.
In any del use or dissolution,
the Idea body remains. but the physical and subtle bodies are destroyed.
In del use or dissolution, the physical
body/earth dissolves in Physical Water, that into Physical Agni(Fire), Fire
into Physical Air, Physical Air into Physical Ether.
This Physical Ether
dissolves in subtle Earth(the macro ego), subtle earth into subtle Water(macro
feelings), that into subtle Agni(macro intellect), Fire into subtle Air(Macro
mind). This macro mind is called MAHAT TATWA.
The present Yuga is
ascending Dwapara yuga and it started at
year 1700 as stated by my Parama Guru Gnaanavataar, the incarnation of
wisdom, Sri Yukteswar Giri Swamiji. This has been narrated by him in his Great
book ‘Kaivalya Darsan’ with illustrations.
Earth has got its own
satellite, moon, revolving around it. The other planets like Venus, Mercury,
Saturn, Mars etc have got their respective satellites revoving around them in
their respective orbits. Every planet has got its own orbit. They not only revolve around themselves but
also revolve around Sun in their own orbits in elliptical order.
Likewise Sun also
revolves around himself and also revolves elliptically around a star as its
centre of orbit. This is called Vis hnunabhi,
the Universal grand centre.
On the Vis hnunabhi it is shown in Hindu mythological pictures as
Brahma sitting on a lotus.
Brahma is the centre
of wis dom. Lot us inspite of being in water will not get rotten. So
inspite of being in this water like sansar(mundane world), one will not lose
balance and remain anchored to God and should continue his Kriyayoga sadhana
without forgetting HIM. That is real wis dom.
To make one
resolution around Vis hnunabhi, Sun will make
24000 years. 12000 years is half ripple.
The full circle consists of two half ripples, ascending and
descending.
The Vernal
Equinox(Mesha Sankranti) falls on 21March of every year.
The Autumnal Equinox(Tula sankranti) falls on
23 September of every year. On that day,
day and night will be equal.
When Sun enters into
Makara Rasi then it called Makara Samkraanti. This is the start of Summer
Solstice or Uttaraayanam. Around 21st
June every year, Sun travels away from Equator
23 ½ ౦ towards north. That is why winter starts.
When Sun enters into Karkataka Rasi then it
called Karkataka Samkraanti. This is the start of winter Solstice or Dakshinaayanam. Around 21st December every year,
Sun travels towards Equator 23 ½ ౦ towards South.
That is why Summer starts.
In the 24000 years of
travel course of Sun around Vis hnunabhi, the
first 12000 years ascending ripple contains Kali, Dwaapara, Treta, and Satya
Yugas. They are called ascending yugas. The next 12000 years discending ripple
contains Satya, Treta, Dwaapara, and Kali Yugas.
Every yuga contains mutation period at the
rate of 100 years for every 1000 years in the beginning and in the end.
This way
Kaliyuga =
100+1000+100=1200 years.
Dwaaparayuga =
200+2000+200=2400 years.
Tretayuga =
300+3000+300=3600 years,
Satyayuga =
400+4000+400=4800 years
Total = 12000 years.
1700 A.D. is the
start of Ascending Dwapara yuga. If the
initial 200 years mutation is added then then 1900A.D. is the start of real
Ascending Dwaapara yuga. 113 years real
Dwapara yuga elapsed till this year i.e., 2013. in the year 4100A.D. the
Ascending Treta yuga starts.
Pandavas handed over
the kingdom to Raja Parikshit and they went together with learned people to Himalayas for penance. At the time of Raja
Pa rikshit, the discending 2400 years already
completed and descending Kali yuga already started. But nobody dared to tell
this fact to the King as the start of Kaliyuga is deemed to be bad thing. Due
to the dearth of learned people, the
existing timid people told Parikshit that the Dwaparayuga is continuing by
erroneously extending it. That way 2401
discending Dwapara yuga existed.
Vernal equinox (Mesha
sankraanti) is at a distance of 200
54’ 36’’ feom fixed star Revati of Mesha
Rasi first Paada(Part). That has elapsed
1394 years and presently it is 194 years
Ascending Dwapara yuga. This is what Swami Sri Yukteswara Giriji said in
1894A.D. Presently it is 114th year of Ascending Dwapara yuga after
deducting the initial mutation period of 200 years.
The qualities of
yugas:
Kaliyuga:
When Sun is revoving
around Vis hnu nabhi, the first ascending 1200
years is ascending Kaliyuga in the first half of 12000years ripple. At this
time of ascending Kaliyuga, Dharma(righteousness) will be on one paada,
25%. In ascending order it gradually
increases.
Intellect will give
preference to the physical things but
moves towards Para brahman from where it
has come. In descending Kaliyuga man
give preference only to physical things only and moves away from Para brahman.
Dwaparayuga:
When Sun is revoving
around Vis hnu nabhi, the first ascending 2400
years is ascending Dwapara yuga in the first half of 12000years ripple. At this
time of ascending Dwaparayuga, Dharma(righteousness) will be on two paadas,
50%. In ascending order it gradually
increases.
Intellect will give
preference to the mental things but
moves towards Para brahman from where it
has come. In descending Kaliyuga man
give preference only to mental things only and moves away from Para brahman.
From the year 1700
A.D. man has made many Scientific inventions and innovations, and it is due to the ascending mental faculties.
Tretayuga:
When Sun is revoving around Vis hnu
nabhi, the first ascending 3600 years is ascending Treta yuga in the first half
of 12000years ripple. At this time of ascending Tretayuga,
Dharma(righteousness) will be on three paadas, 75%. In ascending order it gradually increases.
In ascending Treta
yuga Intellect will give preference to the Ideas but moves towards Para brahman
from where it has come. In descending
Kaliyuga man gives preference only to Ideas only and moves gradually away from Para brahman.
Satyayuga:
When Sun is revoving around Vis hnu
nabhi, the first ascending 4800 years is ascending Satya yuga in the first half
of 12000years ripple. At this time of ascending Satyayuga,
Dharma(righteousness) will be on Four paadas, 100%. In ascending order it gradually increases.
In ascending Satya
yuga Intellect will give preference to the Ideas but moves towards Para brahman
from where it has come. In descending
Satya yuga the man moving gradually away from Para brahman
begins.
Covering the mistake:
In descending
Dwaparayuga the gradually moves away from Ideas.
The so called learned
in Raja Pa rikshit’s
time, made this 2400years’ descending Dwaparayuga by multiplying it with
360. This comes to 8,64,000years. By
this 2400 years is extended by wrongly calculating it. They cleverly covered it by saying that our
360 days are equal to one day of Brahma.
1200, 2400, 3600, and 4800 years of original years of yugas are
described as Years of Brahma. So see the following calculations of yugas made
by these so called learned people of Raja
Pa rikshit.
Kaliyuga= 1200Brahma
yearsx360days= 4,32,000years on Earth,
Dwaparayuga=
2400Brahma yearsx360days= 8,64,000years on Earth,
Tretayuga= 3600Brahma
yearsx360days= 12,96,000years on Earth,
Satyayuga= 4800Brahma
yearsx360days= 17,28,000years on Earth,

He Arjun, in Whom all
these beings are taking shelter, with Whom the whole Cos mos
is reached. That Para brahman can be attained
by incessant dedication only and nothing else.
Mattatwam:
When the primordial
nature, or Ignorance, or Kaaranasareera
remains, it is called dissolution., Pralaya. With the grace of SadGuru,
and Kriya yoga sadhana, the sadhak will get pure wis dom. His karanasareera also gets
destroyed and then the sadhak will be united with Para brahman.
This is called Janmaraahitya or birthless state.
As long as
Karanasareera exists, One has to take rebirth. Matter is ind estructible, the particles in the matter
takes displacements. Matter takes
metamorphosis and in subtle form merges into Para brahman
between one Kalpam and another Kalpam
and exists in unmanifested form. Kalpam
consists of several yugas. When the Cosmos is manifested again it will appear
in different forms which is not different from Para brahman.
But to appear the manifested one is different from Para brahman
is called Creation.
The whole creation is
getting filled with Brahman is called Brahma vaivartam, the diversity of
Brahman. This Para brahman only is existing in
all movable and immovable things of the Cosmos. IT is called “Self’’ in living
beings.
This Physical body,
the outer cover, is formed to experience the results of actions(Karma), and
physical desires.
The Cos mic
consciousness required for physical body provided through subtle body. The Cos mic consciousness enters from Antahkarana of Subtle
body into Physical Antahkarana and then
into Physical body. This is how this
inert physical body of flesh and blood functions with the aid of Cos mic consciousness.
The results of
actions pertain to several births has to be experienced by the subtle body for
which this physical body is the media.
The Cosmic
consciousness enters from organ less Karanasareera(Idea body) or Brahmanadi.
Into subtle body. From there it enters into Subtle Antahkarana and from there
into the subtle body to activate it. Kartritwa(actions) and
Bhoktritwa(experiencing) traits are the Dharma of Subtle Antahkarana. This only experiences happiness or
unhappiness.
The inert body is
Vyashti Shrishti, micro Creation. The inert Cos mos
is Samishti Shrishti, macro Creation. This is called Maaya which is an integral
part of Para brahman. If Para maatma
is having four legs, then one leg is this Maaya. This Maaya is manifested as
Creation. The rest of three legs of Para brahman
is beyond this Maaya. The Cos mic conscious of
the remaining three legs enters into this micro/macro Creation and activates
that inert one.
The micro Creation is
called Vyashtaatma or Pratyagaatma, ind ividual
Soul. Dream comes in the head of a man. The rest of the three parts of the body
are beyond the dream.
It is ignorance to
trust dream as real. Ignorance is subjugated to three Gunas. Because of this
ignorance the real Brahman appears to be unreal.

These two paths of
earth are eternal. The Sukla Paksha leads to Janmarahitya, not entangling in
this birth and death cycle.
The Krishna
paksha leads to rebirth.
Agni means Kundalinee
life force. Sadhak has to achieve the control of life force. The sadhak who
achieved this control of life force, his course of travel will be light or Cos mic
consciousness t.e., he will travel towards Sahasrarachakra. This way or path is
called Sukla(white)Yaanam(travel). Here
day means the third eye the sadhak beholds in his Kootastha. Six mont hs
Uttaraayan means the six chakras, Moolaadhaara, Swadhistaana, Manipura,
Anaahata, Vis uddha, and Agna Chakras.
North(Uttara) is Sahasraara chakra. In these the sadhak will experience six
different types of experiences.
This way, the life force and consciousness of Sadhak
will travel towards North. It will cross three spinal cords, Sushumna , Va jra,
and Chitri. Finally it will cross the most subtle spinal cord, Brahmanadi in
Karanasareera, gets united with God, the Para brahman.
He will get rid of circuit of mundane existence.
In ordinary people,
the life and consciousness will travel downwards i.e., dark path, Krishnaayaana
maarg.
Smoke means
Ignorance, night means the state of ignorance, six mont hs
Dakshinaayanam means the life force and consciousness travels down from Aagnaa,
Vis uddha, Anaahata, Manipura, Swaadhistaana,
and Moolaadhaara chakraas. So travelling the cosmic consciousness degraded into
utter human consciousness and entangles in this circuit of mundane existence
firmly without any moor. Moolaadhaara
chakra is South.
When jeeva
transmigrates from one body into another body, he will carry his subtle body
alongwith Ignorant Kaaranasareera(Ideabody), desires, actions(Karma), and
panchmahatatwas(Five electricities).
The Ideabody will
have top secret invisible chip called Chitragupta chittaa. It contains all data
about the Jeeva.
Jeeva means the impure soul containing the
above said traits.
Jeeva will travel
through ether, Air, smoke, the rainy clouds. Then through grains he becomes
food and enters the man who consumes that food. That form is called
Annaswaroopa.
From that body of man
who has taken the food, he will enter into vagina of lady with whom this man
has cohabited as Shukla, sperm. There he
will combine with Sonitam, ovum, of Lady.
The subtle body, the
subtle portions of tainted panchabhootatatwaas, the results of good and bad
actions, desires in the form traits, Jeeva with three Gunaas are cotravellers
till one gets liberated.
Tasmaatsarveshu
kaaleshu yogayukto Bhavaarjuna 27
He Arjun, the sadhak
who knows the nature of these paths will nev er
be del uded.
So you be always immersed in Kriya yoga. .
After the fall of
physical body, senses will merge with Antahkarana, Antahkarana into Praana
alonwith the results of actions etc will merge with Jeeva ,for yogi or ordinary
man, in the same process.
The Udaana vaayu in
the Vis uddha will send the Jeeva to higher or
lower echelon worlds pertinent to the results of good or bad actions(Karma).
There are eleven
outlets in our body.
Brahmarandhra—1,
nostril outlets—2, eye outlets/holes—2, ear holes—2, Mouth—one hole,
Phallus—one hole, anus—one hole, navel—one hole.
Every human is having
72,000 subtle nadis. Ida(left), Ping ala(right)
and Sushumna subtle nadi in the spinal cord are very important three subtle
nadis amongst them.
Sushumna starts from
Moolaadhara chakra and ends in Sahasrarachakra underneath the Brahmarandhra
travelling through spinal cord. Men of pure wis dom, yogis, Jeevanmuktaas, shall go
through this path while leaving this physical sack.
Ida extends upto left
side of the nostril from Mooladhara through spinal cord. This is called
CHANDRANADI, Pitruyaananadi , or KRISHNA AYAANA NADI.
The men of ignorance, the seekers of Karmaphal(results of actions), will
travel through this path.
Pingala extends upto
Right side of the nostril from Mooladhara through spinal cord. This is called
SURYANADI, Devayaananadi, or SHUKLAYAANA NADI.
The men of wisdom, the sacrificers
of Karmaphal (results of actions), will travel through this path.
Jeevanmukta will be only witnessing this world
without any attachment.
The meditator, the
meditation, and the subject of meditation together are called TRIPUTI.
After the fall of
physical sack the Jeeva can travel through any nadi or any hole mentioned above
11 holes, pertinent or proportional to
his Karma.
On either side of the eye there exists
Gandhaari and Hastijihva subtle nadfis.
Death means the
transmigration of Soul from one body into another body. It is like shedding old
and dilapidated clothes and wearing new ones.
On either side of Ear
Pooshaa subtle nadi exists.
At the end of the
tongue Saraswati subtle nadi exists.
Kuhu subtle nadi
exists at the end of Phallus.

Sadhak has to enter
into the Praasad(House) of Para brahman. Then Para brahman will enter into the Prasad(Body house) of the
devotee. Taking Prasaad is the token of
this act.

He Arjun, those who
are having low and sinful births, ladies, vaisyas, Sudras, are attaining
supreme goal of reaching Me undoubtedly.
Those who do not do
any sadhana are Sudras. The awakened kundalinee start touching Chakras
gradually proportional to Kriya yoga
sadhana. The development of the sadhak
is proportional to the Chakra the awakened Kundakinee touches. The castes, Brahma, Kshatriya, Vaisya, and
Sudras are made as per the chakra
reached by the awakened Kundalinee. If this awakened Kundlinee touches
Moolaadhaara then he is called Kshatriya, Swadhistaana—Vaisya, Manipura—Vipra,
and Anaahata—Brahmin.
The son of an
Engineer may or may not become an Engineer in future. A Sadhak who could become
a Brahmin by virtue of his awakened Kundalinee touching Anaahatachakra may not
have a son of that stature. Hence the father may be a Brahman, but his son may
not be.

If we go on blowing
air into a ballon, then it will explode
and whole air in tht ballon will merge into nature. likewise these worlds
manifested out of Parabrahman will explode one day and merge into Cos mos.
Before the advent of
Creation the Spirit only remained. This is called Poornaatma, Brahman, and Para brahman.
Brahman spread its
Consciousness into ignorance, its result is Creation.
To our mind, Brahman is appeared to be two types:
1) The GOD beyond creation,
unmanifested.
2) The GOD in
creation, manifested.
If Brahman is divided
into four parts, then one part is manifested as Creation. This is called
VyaktaBrahman, manifested Cosmic Nature, which is tangible to the senses.
The unmanifested
Brahman, intangible to senses, is having three qualities, Asti , Bhaati, and Priyam. This is called
Avyakta, Niraakaara Brahmam, or Parabrahman.
Bhaati means
Effulgence,Chit(Energy),
Priyam means
Happiness.
Sat is imperishable,
truthful, and omnipotent.
Chit is ever
conscious
Ananda is ever happy.
Brahman is the
configuration of Sat Chit Aananda.
Brahman with name and
form is Jagat or Maya. The Creation that has been manifested out of Brahman is
called Maaya.
Maaya which is unreal
appears to be real to the ordinary man of ignorance. When figures are super
imposed on white cinema screen, then it is not visible.. Maaya is akin to this
superimposition of figures and white screen is Brahman.
Suppose there is a
3000 sq feet ground. If 1000 sq ft house is constructed in that ground. 2000 sq
ft is left blank. If the whole ground of
3000 sq feet is Para brahman, then the
constructed 1000 sq ft house is God in Creation. Then the God is said to be in
Creation and beyond Creation as well.
Peace, tranquility,
internal happiness, and endurance etc are Satwa Gunas, Po sitive
qualities.
Arishadwargaas
(Kaama, Krodha, Lobha , Mo ha, Mada, Maatsarya), desires, fickle
mindedness are Rajo Gunas, zero qualities(catalyst).
Attachment, dull
headedness, forgetfulness, absentmindedness, sleep, del ay, and carelessness etc are tamo gunas,
negative qualities.
The cosmic
consciousness reflected in pure positive Maaya. This consciousness extended
into zero and negative qualities and made them active. Now the inert Maaya
becomes conscious with three Gunas.
This activated Maaya
make the mind to think so that the imperishable Nature(Apara Prakriti) has been
the metamorphosis or result in the
initial stages of Creation. This Apara Prakriti is bound to time, and space.
This is being called as Mithya(unreal) and Avidya(Ignorance).
Jeevanmukta will not
have any ‘my, or my body’’ feeling. After experiencing his Prarabdha karma(the
one brought by him for the present), and completion of the work given by Para brahman, some sadhaks will get liberation. This is
called Videhamukti. He will be working
for God only.
A ray of Avidya will
remain with Jeevanmukta for the
completion of Prarabdha karma till he is completely liberated. His subtle and
Idea bodies will remain and they merge with Para brahman
after he gets videhamukti.
Aum, Tat, Sat.
