HOW TO STAY LONG TIME DURING MEDITATE

             

                                 HOW TO AVOID ASLEEP 

                             DURING MEDITATION

                                                   💫

                          WHEN I DO SADHANA, I AM FINDING MYSELF DOZING OFF. I THOUGHT THIS WAS DUE TO TIREDNESS, BUT WHENEVER I CLOSE MY EYES AND MEDITATE. I FALL ASLEEP. HOW CAN I STAY AWAKE?

                        ANS :  FIRST, LET US UNDERSTAND WHAT SLEEP IS ABOUT. IF SLEEP IS INVADING YOUR LIFE ANYTIME OF THE DAY, YOU MUST FIRST CHECK YOUR BASIC HEALTH AND SEE IF THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOUR SYSTEM. WHEN YOU ARE PHYSICALLY UNWELL, YOU WILL TEND TO SLEEP MUCH MORE THAN NORMAL- THE BODY WANTS TO REST.

                     THE SECOND THING IS THE FOOD THAT YOU EAT. CONSUMING AT LEAST A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF VEGETARIAN MATERIAL, PARTICULARLY IN UNCOOKED CONDITION, IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR YOUR GENERAL WELLBEING. WHEN YOU COOK FOOD, A LARGE VOLUME OF PRANA IS DESTROYED. THAT IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF LETHARGY SETTLES INTO THE BODY. IF YOU JUST EAT A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF LIVE FOOD, APART FROM MANY OTHER BENEFITS, ONE THING THAT WILL IMMEDIATELY HAPPEN IS YOUR SLEEP QUOTA WILL GO DOWN DRAMATICALLY.

                      ESSENTIALLY, YOUR ALERTNESS DEPENDS ON HOW KEENLY YOU MANAGE YOUR ENEGIES, IF YOU WANT TO MEDITATE, YOUR ALERTNESS MUST BE NOT OF THE MIND ALONE, BUT OF YOUR VERY ENERGY. TO ASSIT THIS, GENERALLY, FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE ON THE YOGIC PATH, IT IS SAID THAT YOU SHOULD EAT ONLY TWENTY-FOUR MOUTHFULS, AND YOU MUST CHEW EVERY MOUTHFUL AT LEAST TWENTY-FOUR TIMES. NOW YOU FOOD WILL BE PRE-DIGESTED IN YOUR MOUTH BEFORE IT GOES IN, AND IT WILL NOT CAUSE DULLNESS.

                              IF YOU DO THIS DURING YOUR EVENING MEAL AND THEN SLEEP IN THEN NIGHT, YOU WILL EASILY WAKE UP AT THREE-THIRTY IN THE MORNING, AND YOU CAN MEDITATE. IN THE YOGIC SYSTEMS, THIS TIME IS CALLED THE BRAHMA MUHURTAM. IT IS AN IDEAL TIME TO WAKE UP, BECAUSE AT THAT TIME, THERE IS AN EXTRA SUPPORT FROM NATURE ITSELF FOR YOUR SADHANA. IF YOU TAKE A BATH AND KEEP YOUR HAIR WET, YOU WILL EASILY STAY AWAKE AND ALERT THROUGH YOUR SADHANA UNTIL EIGHT O'CLOK. IF YOU EAT JUST TWENTY-FOUR MORSELS IN YOUR MORNING MEAL, YOU WILL DEFINITELY NOT FEEL SLEEPY UNTIL DENNERTIME. AFTER ONE-AND-A-DAY TO TWO HOURS, YOU WILL BE HUNGRY, AND THAT IS THE BEST WAY TO BE. JUST BECAUSE THE STOMACH IS EMPTY, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PUT FOOD. JUST DRINK WATER AND YOU WILL STAY ALERT AND ENERGETIC THROUGHOUT THE DAY. YOUR SYSTEM WILL LEARN TO USE THE FOOD YOU HAVE EATEN WELL, RATHER THAN SIMPLY WASTING IT. ECONOMICALLY AND ECOLOGICALLY IT IS GOOD FOR THE WORLD, AND GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH - YOU MAY NEVER FALL SICK IF YOU EAT LIKE THIS.

                          WHICH IS GOOD FOR HEALTH ,

                                        WHETHER VEGETARIAN OR NON-VEGETARIAN

                                                                        ❤❤❤

                    WHAT KIND OF FOOD YOU EAT SHOULD DEPEND NOT ON WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT IT, OR ON YOUR VALUES AND ETHICS, BUT ON WHAT THE BODY WANTS. FOOD IS ABOUT THE BODY. WHEN IT COMES TO FOOD, DON'T ASK YOUR DOCTORS OR YOUR NUTRITION EXPERTS, THEY KEEP CHANGING THEIR OPINION EVERY FIVE YEARS. DO EXPERIMENTS, WITH DIFFERENT FOODS AND SEE HOW YOUR BODY FEELS AFTER EATING. IF YOUR BODY FEELS VERY AGILE, ENERGETIC AND NICE, THAT MEANS THE BODY IS, "HAPPY". IF THE BODY FEELS LETHARGIC AND NEEDS TO BE PUMPED UP WITH CAFFERINE OR NICOTINE TO STAY AWAKE, THE BODY IS NOT HAPPY.

                              IF YOU LISTEN TO YOUR BODY, IT WILL CLEARLY TELL YOU WHAT KIND OF FOOD IT IS HAPPY WITH. BUT RIGHT NOW, YOU ARE LISTENING TO YOUR MIND, WHICH KEEPS LYING TO YOU ALL THE TIME. HASN'T IT LIED TO YOU BEFORE? TODAY IT TELLS YOU THIS IS IT. TOMORROW IT MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE A FOOL FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVED YESTERDAY. SO DON'T GO BY YOUR MIND. YOU JUST HAVE TO LEARN TO LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.

TIPS TO HAVE GLOWING SKIN

 

                               TO HAVE A GLOWING SKIN

                            THE USES OF NEEM ❤

                                          AND TURMERIC

                               NEEM IS VERY CLEANSING FOR YOUR SYSTEM. THE NEEM STICK IS GOOD, YOU KNOW, IT AWAKENS LOTS OF PEOPLE. IN INDIA, IF YOU ARE ACTING A LITTLE FUNNY AND POSSED, THEY CAN BEAT THE DEVIL OUT OF YOU WITH THE NEEM STICK! IF YOU HAVE ANY KIND OF INFECTION, THEY WOULD ALWAYS PUT YOU ON A BED OF NEEM LEAVES BECAUSE IT IS A GREAT ENERGIZER AND CLEANSER OF THE SYSTEM. THE LEAF HAS TREMENDOUS MEDICINAL PROPERTIES AND VERY STRONG PRANIC REVERBERATIONS - AND IT IS BITTER ENOUGH TO GET THE DEVIL OUT OF YOU!

                     THE NEEM LEAF IS THE MOST COMPLEX LEAF THAT YOU CAN FIND ON THE PLANET, AND IT HAS PARTICULAR BENEFITS IN OPENING UP THE SYSTEM. FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME FROM THE WEST, ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS FOR YOU IN INDIA IN YOU WILL HAVE STOMACH INFECTIONS. JUST ABOUT ANYTHING, WHICH THE INDIANS THINK IS FANTASTIC, WILL KEEP YOU PERMANENTLY IN THE TOILET - BECAUSE THE WORLD IS FULL OF BACTERIA. THE BODY IS FULL OF BACTERIA. IN A NORMAL SIZED BODY, YOU HAVE APPROXIMATELY 10 TRILLION HUMAN CELLS, BUT YOU HAVE OVER 100 TRILLION BACTERIA. YOU ARE OUTNUMBERED TEN TO ONE. THERE ARE MORE CREATURES LIVING IN YOU THAN YOU IMAGINE. MOST OF THESE BACTERIA ARE VERY HELPFUL TO US. WITHOUT THEM WE CANNOT EXIST, BUT SOME OF THEM CAN CAUSE TROUBLE TO US. IF YOU PUT NEEM INTO THE SYSTEM IT DESTROYS THE TROUBLESOME BACTERIA IN THE INTESTINAL REGION.

                                                                      💫💫💫

                   NEEM HAS MANY INCREDIBLE BENEFITS, BUT ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IS THAT IT KILLS CANCEROUS CELLS. EVERY ONE OF OUR BODIES HAS CANCEROUS CELLS, BUT THEY ARE DISORGANIZED, THEY ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE. FOR SOME REASON, IF YOU CREATE CERTAIN SITUATIONS IN THE BODY, THEY WILL GET ORGANIZED. FROM PETTY CRIME TO ORGANIZED CRIME SERIOUS PROBLEM ISN'T IT? THERE ARE PETTY CRIMINALS EVERYWHERE IN EVERY TOWN. HERE AND THERE THEY WILL DO A LITTLE PICK-POCKETING, NO PROBLEM. BUT IF FIFTY OF THEM GET ORGANIZED IN A CITY, THEN SUDDENLY THE WHOLE ATMOSPHERE IN THE CITY WILL CHANGE. THESE FIFTY GUYS TOGETHER CAN DO SUCH THINGS THAT IT WILL BECOME DANGEROUS FOR YOU TO STEP ONTO THE STREET. THAT IS ALL THAT IS HAPPENING IN THE BODY, THERE ARE CANCEROUS CELLS RUNNING AROUND. IF THEY ARE LOAFING AROUND BY THEMSELVES, NO PROBLEM. IF THEY MEET ON ONE PLACE AND HIT IT OFF, THEN IT IS A PROBLEM. THE THING IS TO KEEP BREAKING THEM NEEM EVERY DAY DOES THAT, IT KEEPS THE NUMBER OF CANCEROUS CELLS IN THE BODY WITHIN A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE, WHERE IT DOES NOT REALLY GANG UP AGAINST THE SYSTEM. SO IT IS A VERY IMPORTANT THING TO CONSUME NEEM.

                                                                       💫💫💫

                        IF YOU EAT NEEM, EVEN MOSQUITOS MAY NOT BEFORE BITE YOU, IF YOU SMEAR YOURSELF WITH NEEM PASTE JUST BEFORE BATH, LET IT DRY FOR SOME TIME AND JUST WASH IT OFF WITH WATER, IT IS A CLEANSER BY ITSELF- ALL THE BACTERIA ON THE OUTSIDE WILL DIE. OR YOU CAN TAKE A FEW NEEM LEAVES AND PUT THEM IN WATER, LEAVE IT THERE OVERNIGHT AND HAVE BATH WITH IT.

                    IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THERE ARE NO EXCESS LEVELS OF BACTERIA. WITHOUT BACTERIAL ACTIVITY YOU CANNOT EXIST. BUT IF THE BACTERIAL LEVELS ARE EXCESSIVE, YOU WILL FEEL "DOWN" BECAUSE THE DEFENSE MECHANISM SPENDS TOO MUCH ENERGY DEALING WITH THEM. BY USING NEEM IN A VARIETY OF WAYS, YOU MANAGE THE BACTERIA IN SUCH A WAY THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SPEND THE BODY'S ENERGY IN MANAGING IT.

                                                                           💫💫💫

                            

                      TURMERIC IS ONE SUBSTANCE WHICH NOT ONLY WORKS ON THE PHYSIOLOGY, BUT ALSO WORKS ON THE ENERGY SYSTEM. IT CREATES  CERTAIN PURIFICATION PROCESS IN THE BLOOD, BODY AND ENERGY SYSTEM. YOU CAN USE THIS AS A PURIFICATORY SUBSTANCE EVEN FROM OUTSIDE. IF YOU JUST TAKE A SMALL PINCH OF TURMERIC, PUT IT INTO A BUCKETFUL OF WATER AND POUR IT OVER YOUR BODY, YOU WILL SEE THE BODY WILL BE VIBRANT AND GLOWING. KEEPING THE BLOOD PURE AND THE BLOOD CHEMISTRY IN A CERTAIN BALANCE WILL DEFINITELY HAPPEN WITH REGULAR CONCUMPTION OF TURMERIC. IT PURIFIES THE BLOOD AND BRINGS A CERTAIN TRANSUMPTION TO YOUR ENERGIES.

OUR SOUL RETURN AGAIN TO EARTH

                                THE LIFE AFTER DEATH

                                     (COMING BACK)

                            

                           THE MODERN AGE 

                     AS WE ENTER THE TWENTIETH CENTURY, WE FIND THE IDEA OF REINCARNATION ATTRACTING THE MIND OF ONE OF THE WEST'S MOST INFLUENTIAL ARTISTS, PAUL GAUGUIN, WHO DURING HIS FINAL YEARS IN TAHITI WROTE THAT WHEN THE PHYSICAL ORGANISM BREAKS UP, "THE SOUL SURVIVES ". IT THEN TAKES ON ANOTHER BODY, GAUGUIN WROTE, "DEGRADING OR ELEVATING ACCORDING TO MERIT OR DEMERIT". THE ARTIST BELIEVED THAT THE IDEA OF CONTINUED REBIRTH HAD FIRST BEEN TAUGHT IN THE WEST BY PYTHAGORAS, WHO LEARNED IT FROM THE SAGES OF ANCIENT INDIA.

                    U.S. AUTO MAGNATE HENRY FORD ONCE TOLD A NEWSPAPER INTERVIEW. "I ADOPTED THE THEORY OF REINCARNATION WHEN I WAS TWENTY-SIX".FOR SAID, "GENIUS, IS EXPERIENCE. SOME SEEM TO THINK THAT IT IS A GIFT OR TALENT, BUT IT IS THE FRUIT OF LONG EXPERIENCE IN MANY LIVES". IN A SIMILAR FASHION, U.S.GENERAL GEORGE S. PATTON BELIEVED THAT HE HAD ACQUIRED HIS MILITARY SKILLS ON ANCIENT BATTLEFIELDS.

                  REINCARNATION IS A RECURRING THEME IN ULYSSES, BY IRISH NOVELIST AND POET JAMES JOYCE. IN ONE FAMOUS PASSAGE IN THIS NOVEL, JOYCE'S HERO, MR.BLOOM, TELLS HIS WIFE, "SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT WE GO ON LIVING IN ANOTHER BODY AFTER DEATH, THAT WE LIVED BEFORE. THEY CALL IT REINCARNATION. THAT WE ALL LIVED BEFORE. THEY CALL IT REINCARNATION. THAT WE ALL LIVED BEFORE ON THE EARTH THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO OR ON SOME OTHER PLANET. THEY SAY WE HAVE FORGOTTEN IT. SOME SAY THEY REMEMBER THEIR PAST LIVES.

                        MAHATMA GANDHI

                         MAHATMA GANDHI, ONE OF THE GREATEST POLITICAL FIGURES OF MODERN TIMES AND APOSTLE OF NONVIOLENCE, ONCE EXPLAINED HOW A PRACTICAL UNDERSTANDING OF REINCARNATION GAVE HIM HOPE FOR HIS DREAM OF WORLD PEACE. GANDHI SAID, " I CANNOT THINK OF PERMANENT ENMITY BETWEEN MAN AND MAN, AND BELIEVING AS I DO IN THE THEORY OF REBIRTH, I LIVE IN THE HOPE THAT IF NOT IN THIS BIRTH, IN SOME OTHER BIRTH I SHALL BE ABLE TO HUG ALL OF HUMANITY IN FRIENDLY EMBRACE.

                   BRITISH POET LAUREATE JOHN MASEFIEL, IN HIS WELLKNOWN POEM ABOUT PAST AND FUTURE LIVES, WRITES:

                     👉

                    I HOLD THAT WHEN A PERSON DIES

                             HIS SOUL RETURNS AGAIN TO EARTH,

                  ARRAYED IN SOME NEW FLESH DISGUISE

                            ANOTHER MOTHER GIVES HIM BIRTH.

                  WITH STURDIER LIMBS AND BRIGHTER BRAIN

                            THE OLD SOUL TAKES THE ROAD AGAIN.

                                                                      ❤❤❤

                      MUSICIAN, SONGWRITER, AND CELEBRATED, EX-BEATLE GEORGE HARRISON'S SERIOUS THINKING ABOUT REINCARNATION IS REVEALED IN HIS PRIVATE THOUGHTS ON INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS. FRIENDS ARE ALL SOUL THAT WE'VE KNOWN IN OTHER LIVES.WE'RE DRAWN TO EACH OTHER. THAT'S HOW I FEEL ABOUT FRIENDS. EVEN IF I HAVE ONLY KNOWN THEM A DAY, IT DOESN'T MATTER. I'M NOT GOING TO WAIT TILL I HAVE KNOWN THEM FOR TWO YEARS, BECAUSE ANYWAY, WE MUST HAVE MET SOMEWHERE BEFORE, YOU KNOW.

                         REINCARNATION IS ONCE AGAIN ATTRACTING THE MINDS OF INTELLECTUALS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC IN THE WEST. FILMS, NOVELS, POPULAT SONGS, AND PERIODICALS NOW TREAT REINCARNATION WITH EVER-INCREASING FREQUENCY , AND MILLIONS OF WESTERNERS ARE RAPIDLY JOINING RANKS WITH THE MORE THAN 1.5 BILLION PEOPLE INCLUDING HINDUS, BUDDHISTS, TAOISTS, AND MEMBERS OF OTHER FAITHS, WHO HAVE TRADITIONALLY UNDERSTOOD THAT LIFE DOES NOT BEGIN AT BIRTH NOR END WITH DEATH. BUT SIMPLE CURIOSITY OR BELIEF IS NOT SUFFICIENT. IT IS MERELY THE FIRST STEP IN UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLETE SCIENCE OF REINCARNATION, WHICH INCLUDES KNOWLEDGE OF HOW TO FREE ONESELF FROM THE MISERABLE CYCLE OF BIRTH AND DEATH.

THE GURU AND THE TEACHER

                             

                           THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 

                   GURU ❤AND TEACHER ❤

                   THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GURU AND A TEACHER IS JUST THIS, A TEACHER WILL TEACH YOU METHODS WITH WHICH YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR ANNAMAYA KOSHA, MANOMAYA KOSHA AND PRANAMAYA KOSHA, BUT HE CANNOT TOUCH YOUR VIGNAMAYA KOSHA. A GURU WORKS ON YOUR VIGNANAMAYA KOSHA. ONCE HE TOUCHES THAT, EVERYTHING IS CHANGED DRAMATICALLY BECAUSE THIS CHANGE IS PERMANENT. IT IS BEYOND THE PHYSICAL DIMENSION, AND IT IS ALWAYS PERMANENT.

                   THE FIFTH LAYER IS CALLED ANANDAMAYA KOSHA WHICH MEANS "BLISS BODY". DOES IT MEAN THERE IS A BUBBLE OF BLISS SITTING INSIDE OF YOU? NO, THIS IS A DIMENSION BEYOND THE PHYSICAL. ANYTHING THAT IS NON-PHYSICAL CAN NEITHER BE DEFINED NOR DESCRIBED BY US, SO WE CAN ONLY TALK ABOUT IT IN TERMS OF OUR EXPERIENCE. WE ONLY KNOW THAT WHEN WE TOUCH IT, WE BECOME BLISSFUL, SO FROM OUR EXPERIENCE, WE SAY THIS IS BLISS BODY. IT DOES NOT MEAN ITS NATURE IS BLISS, IT IS JUST THAT IT MAKES US BLISSFUL.

                                                              💫  💫

                           THE QUALITY OF HIS LIFE IS NOT DECIDED BY WHAT IS OUTSIDE, BUT BY WHAT IS WITHIN HIM. THIS HAS BEEN COMPLETELY MISINTERPRETED. PEOPLE CONCLUDED THAT IF YOU WANT TO BE SPIRITUAL, YOU MUST GIVE UP EVERYTHING OUTSIDE. IT IS NOT ABOUT GIVING UP OR NOT GIVING UP. WHETHER YOU ARE SPIRITUAL OR OTHERWISE, YOU ANYWAY BREATHE, EAT FOOD AND DRINK WATER. WHETHER YOU EAT GOOD FOOD OR BAD FOOD IS THE ONLY CHOICE YOU HAVE. SO IT IS NOT ABOUT GIVING UP. IT IS A SHIFT OF FOCUS WHERE YOU SEE THAT IF YOU DO NOT HANDLE THE INTERNAL APPROPRIATELY, THE QUALITY OF YOUR LIFE CANNOT BE GOOD.

                                                                    ❤❤

                         THE QUALITY OF YOUR LIFE IS DECIDED NOT BY WHAT KIND OF CLOTHES YOU WEAR, WHAT KIND OF CAR YOU DRIVE OR WHAT KIND OF HOME YOU LIVE IN, BUT BY HOW PEACEFUL AND JOYFUL YOU ARE WITHIN YOURSELF. THIS IS ESSENTIALLY THE QUALITY OF YOUR LIFE. EVERYTHING ELSE IS DONE TO GET THERE. IF THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN, EVERYTHING ELSE GOES WASTE.

                           THE SPINE (IDA AND PINGALA)

                                                    👀

                         WITHIN THE SPINE, IF YOU KNOW ITS PHYSICAL CONSTRUCTION, YOU WILL KNOW THERE ARE TWO HOLES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE SPINE WHICH ARE LIKE CONDUIT PIPES FOR ALL THE NERVES TO PASS. THESE ARE THE IDA AND THE PINGALA, THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT CHANNELS.

                        IN THE PRANAMAYA KOSHA OR THE ENERGY BODY, THERE ARE 72000 NADIS. NADIS ARE PATHWAYS OR CHANNELS IN THE SYSTEM. IF YOU CUT THIS BODY AND SEE, YOU WILL NOT SEE THEM. BUT AS YOU BECOME MORE AWARE OF THE MOVEMENT OF ENERGY, YOU WILL SEE ENERGY IS NOT MOVING AT RANDOM, IT IS MOVING IN PARTICULAR PATTERNS. THERE ARE 72000 DIFFERENT WAYS IN WHICH THE ENERGY MOVES. THESE 72000 NADIS SPRING FROM THREE BASIC NADIS - IDA, PINGALA, AND SUSHUMMA.

                                                                     ❤❤

                     IDA AND PINGALA REPRESENT THE TWO DIMENSIONS OF LIFE WHICH WE SYMBOLIZE AS FEMININE AND MASCULINE. THIS IS NOT IN TERMS OF GENDER OR ABOUT BEING MALE OR FEMALE, BUT IN TERMS OF CERTAIN QUALITIES IN NATURE. CERTAIN QUALITIES IN NATURE HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS MASCULINE, WHILE OTHER QUALITIES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS FEMININE. YOU MAY BE A MAN, BUT IF YOUR IDA IS MORE PRONOUNCED, THE FEMININE MAY BE DOMINANT IN YOU. YOU MAY BE A WOMAN, BUT IF YOUR PINGALA IS MORE PRONOUNED, THE MASCULINE MAY BE DOMINANT IN YOU. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU BEING A MAN OR A WOMAN. WHEN WE SAY MASCULINE AND FEMININE, ON THE LEVEL OF YOUR MIND, PINGALA REPRESENTS THE LOGICAL DIMENSION OF THE MIND, IDA REPRESENTS THE INTUITIVE DIMENSION OF THE MIND.

YOGA IS THE ONLY WAY TO BALANCE OUR BODY

                      

                         OUR BODY MICROPHONE

                                              💫

                              👉

                        YOUR BODY, MIND, AND EMOTION ARE THE ONLY THINS THAT ARE IN YOUR EXPERIENCE RIGHT NOW. YOU AN INFER THAT IF THESE THREE THINGS HAVE TO HAPPEN THE WAY THEY ARE HAPPEING, THERE MUST BE AN ENERGY THAT MAKES THEM HAPPEN.WITHOUT ENERGY, AL THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING, FOR EXAMPLES, A MIRCOPHONE AMPLIFIES  SOUND. EVEN IF YOU DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE MICROPHONE, YOU CAN INFER THAT THERE IS A SOURCE THAT POWER IT. THE THIRD DIMENSION OF YOUR BODY IS REFERRED TO AS THE ENERGY BODY OR THE PRANAYAMA KOSHA.

                     THE ENERGY BODY REVERBERATES IN A CERTAIN WAY, AND WHICHEVER WAY IT REVERBERATES, IS THE WAY YOUR MENTAL BODY AND PHYSICAL BODY HAPPEN. THE BASIC WAY OF YOGA IS MOSTLY ON THE LEVEL OF PRANAYAMA KOSHA BECAUSE IF YOU HANDLE THIS PROPERLY, PHYSICAL WELLNESS IS NATURALLY TAKEN CARE OF.

                                                               ❤❤

                           👉

                   PRANAYAMA KOSHA IS THE FUNDAMENTAL ENERGY IN ALL PHYSICAL CREATION. IF YOU HAVE MASTERY OVER YOUR PRANA, OR ENERGY, IT IS NOT SITUATIONS AROUND YOU. AS YOUR ENERGIES BECOME MORE BALANCED, SUDDENLY YOUR LIFE SITUATIONS WORK OUT THE WAY YOU WANT EVEN BEFORE YOU THINK ABOUT IT. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SLOP WITH LIFE ANYMORE. WHATEVER YOU DO, THERE IS NO PRESSURE ON YOU BECAUSE EVERYTHING JUST FALLS INTO PLACE. IF YOU WORK TWENTY-FOUR HOURS A DAY, DAY AFTER DAY, STILL THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS STRESS OR PRESSURE ON YOU.

                         IF YOU FEEL MY PULSE, MOS OF THE TIME IT IS BELOW FORTY, IF AM HUNGRY. AFTER I HAVE EATEN, IT IS SOMEWHERE AROUND FORTY-TWO TO FORTY-FIVE. IF AM PHYSICAL ACTIVE, IT MAY RAISE TO FIFTY, FIFTY-FOUR. ONLY IF I RUN UP A STAIRCASE OR SOMETHING, IT WILL RAISE HIGHER THAN THAT. WHEN THE BODY IS LIKE THIS, IT IS AS IF YOU ARE IN DEEP SLUMBER ALL THE TIME, FAST, ASLEEP, BUT WIDE AWAKE. ONCE YOU ARE LIKE THIS, THERE IS NO SUCH THING A STRESS.

                                                                     ❤❤

                           👉

                    IF THESE THREE DIMENTIONS, THE PHYSICAL BODY, THE MENTAL BODY, AND THE ENERGY BODY, ARE KEPT IN A CERTAIN STATE OF ALIGNMENT, WHAT IS DEEPER THAN THAT BEGINS TO FUNCTION BY ITS OWN NATURE. THAT DIMENTION IS THE VERY SOURCE OF CREATION.

                      PEOPLE SEE MIRACULOUS CHANGES IN THEIR PHYSIOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS SIMPLY BECAUSE ONCE YOUR ENERGY BODY IS IN PROPER BALANCE AND FULL FLOW, DISEASE CANNOT EXIST IN YOU PHYSIOLOGICAL OR PSYCHOLOGICALLY. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT IT IS, THIS IS LIKE YOUR CAR WAS NOT STARTING, SO YOU PUSHED IT, KICKED IT, CURSED IT - YOU DID EVERYTHING. YOUR MECHANIC CAME AND SIMPLY TOUCHED IT, AND SUDDENLY EVERYTHING IS OKAY. SIMILARLY, WITH YOUR BODY, YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT IS WHERE AND HOW IT IS FUNCTIONING. WHATEVER YOU DO, IT DOES NOT WORK. THEN, WITH JUST A SIMPLE PROCESS - EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE OKAY. THERE ARE THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE DROPPED THEIR AILMENTS BY DOING SIMPLE YOGIC PRACTICES AND BALANCING THEIR SYSTEM. FOR A THINKING MIND, THIS LOOKS LIKE A MIRACLE.

                                                             ❤❤

                         👉          

                      ANYTHING THAT YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND, YOU TEND TO CALL IT A MIRACLE. LET US SAY YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ELECTRICITY, AND I TELL YOU, "IF I TOUCH ME WALL, THE WHOLE HALL WILL BE FLOODED IN LIGHT". WILL YOU BELIEVE ME? IF I PRESS THE SWITCH AND THE WHOE PLACE BECOMES LIGHT, YOU WILL THINK I AM THE MESSENGER OF GOD, OR THE SON OF GOD, OR GOD HIMSELF, JUST BECAUSE YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW IT FUNCTIONS. ANYTHING THAT YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND BECOMES A MIRACLE IN YOUR MIND. THE VERY LIFE PROCESS IS A GREAT MIRACLE. THE VERY WAY YOU HAVE BECOME ALL THIS FROM BEING TWO LITTLE CELLS, IS IT NOT A MIRACLE? EVERYTHING ABOUT LIFE IS MIRACULOUS. OTHERWISE, IF YOU START EXPLAINING IT, NOTHING IS A MIRACLE.

                   THESE THREE DIMENTIONS, THE PHYSICAL BODY, THE MENTAL BODY, AND THE ENERGY BODY ARE PHYSICAL IN NATURE. THEY ARE GETTING SUBTLER AS YOU GO - FROM GROSSLY PHYSICAL TO A LITTLE SUBTLER, TO MUCH MORE SUBTLE BUT THEY ARE PHYSICAL IN NATURE. YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THAT THE LIGHT BULB IS PHYSICAL, BUT THE ELECTRICITY WHICH MAKES IT GLOW IS ALSO PHYSICAL, THE LIGHT IT THROWS OUT IS ALSO PHYSICAL. SIMILARLY, THESE THREE LAYERS ARE OF PHYSICAL NATURE.

                                                                    ❤❤

                        👉          

                        VIGNANAMAYA KOSHA IS OF A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NATURE. THERE IS NO APPROPRIATE  WORD IN ENGLISH SO IT IS GENERALLY REFERRED TO AS "ETHERIC BODY" OR SPIRITUALLY BODY. THIS IS A TRANSITORY BODY. TRANSITORY IN THE SENSE, IT IS MOVING FROM PHYSICAL NATURE INTO NON-PHYSICAL NATURE. THE INTERMEDIATE SPACE OR THE INTERMEDIATE STATE IS REFERRED TO AS "ETHER" OR "VIGNANA".

                         THIS IS THE DIMENSION WHERE IF TRANSFORMATION HAPPENS, IT IS TRULY FOREVER, SUPPOSE WE TEACH YOUR BODY TO DO YOGA. IF YOU DO ASANAS FOR SIX MOTHS YOU WILL FEEL SO MUCH BETTER PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY AND IN EVERY WAY.

THE KARMA

       

                                           KARMA

                                               👀

                   KARMA IS THE AGGREGATE FRUITIVE ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED TO MAKE THIS BODY COMFORTABLE OR UNCOMFORTABLE. WE HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN THAT WHEN ONE MAN WAS ABOUT TO DIE HE REQUESTED HIS PHYSICIAN TO GIVE HIM A CHANCE TO LIVE FOUR MORE YEARS SO THAT HE COULD FINISH HIS PLANS. THIS MEANS THAT WHILE DYING HE WAS THINKING OF HIS PLANS. AFTER HIS BODY WAS DESTROYED, HE DOUBTLESSLY CARRIED HIS PLANS WITH HIM BY MEANS OF THE SUBTLE BODY, COMPOSED OF MIND, INTELLIGENCE, AND EGO. THUS HE WOULD GET ANOTHER CHANCE BY THE GRACE OF THE SUPREME LORD, THE SUPERSOUL, WHO IS ALWAYS WITHIN THE HEART. IN THE NEXT BIRTH, ONE ACQUIRES REMEMBRANCE FROM THE SUPERSOUL AND BEGINS TO EXECUTE PLANS BEGUN IN THE PREVIOUS LIFE. SITUATED ON THE VEHICLE GIVEN BY MATERIAL NATURE AND REMINDED BY THE SUPERSOUL WITHIN THE HEART, THE LIVING ENTITY STRUGGLES ALL OVER THE UNIVERSE TO FULLFILL HIS PLANS.

                       SEX CHANGE WITHOUT SURGERY

                                                                     ❤❤

                     A MAN GETS HIS NEXT LIFE'S BIRTH ACCORDING TO WHAT HE THINKS OF AT THE TIME OF DEATH. IF SOMEONE IS TOO ATTACHED TO HIS WIFE, NATURALLY HE THINKS OF HIS WIFE AT THE TIME OF DEATH, AND IN HIS NEXT LIFE HE TAKES THE BODY OF A WOMAN. SIMILARLY, IF A WOMAN THINKS OF HER HUSBAND AT THE TIME OF DEATH, NATURALLY SHE GETS THE BODY OF A MAN IN HER NEXT LIFE.

                   

                    WE SHOULD ALWAYS REMEMBER, AS IT IS STATED IN BHAGAVAD-GITA THAT BOTH THE GROSS AND SUBTLE MATERIAL BODIES ARE DRESSESS, THEY ARE THE SHIRT AND COAT OF THE LIVING ENTITY. TO BE EITHER A WOMAN OR A MAN INVOLVES ONLY ONE'S BODILY DRESS.

                         DREAMS AND PAST LIVES

                                              💫

                 IN DREAMS WE SOMETIMES SEE THINGS THAT WE HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED IN THE PRESENT BODY. SOMETIMES IN DREAMS WE THINK THAT ARE FLYING THE SKY, ALTHOUGH WE HAVE NO EXPERIENCE OF FLYING. THIS MEANS THAT ONCE IN A PREVIOUS LIFE, EITHER AS A DEMIGOD OR ASTRONAUT, WE FLEW IN THE SKY. THE IMPRESSION IS THERE IN THE STOCKPILE OF THE MIND, AND IT SUDDENLY EXPRESSESS ITSELF. IT IS LIKE FERMENTATION TAKING PLACE IN THE DEPTHS OF WATER,WHICH SOMETIMES MANIFESTS ITSELF IN BUBBLES ON THE WATER'S SURFACE. SOMETIMES WE DREAM OF COMING TO A PLACE WE HAVE NEVER KNOWN OR EXPERIENCED THIS. THE IMPRESSION IS KEPT WITHIN THE MIND AND SOMETIMES BECOMES MANIFEST EITHER IN DREAM OR IN THOUGHT. THE CONCLUSION IS THAT THE MIND IS THE STOREHOUSE OF VARIOUS THOUGHTS AND EXPERIENCES UNDERGOING DURING OUR PAST LIVES. THUS THERE IS A CHAIN OF CONTINUATION FROM ONE LIFE TO ANOTHER, FROM PREVIOUS LIVES TO THIS LIFE, AND FROM THIS LIFE TO FUTURE LIVES.

                                                          COMAS

                                                 💫 

                    A LIVING ENTITY TOO MUCH ABSORBED IN MATERIAL ACITIVITY BECOMES VERY MUCH ATTACHED TO THE MATERIAL BODY. EVEN AT THE POINT OF DEATH, HE THINKS OF HIS PRESENT BODY AND THE RELATIVES CONNECTED TO IT. THUS HE REMAINS FULLY ABSORBED IN THE BODILY CONCEPTION OF LIFE, SO MUCH SO THAT EVEN AT THE POINT OF DEATH HE ABHORS LEAVIN HIS PRESENT BODY. SOMETIMES IT IS FOUND THAT A PERSON ON THE VERGE OF DEATH REMAINS IN A COMA FOR MANY DAYS BEFORE GIVING UP THE BODY.

                      A PERSON MAY BE ENJOYING THE BODY OF A PRIME MINISTER OR A PRESIDENT,  BUT WHEN HE UNDERSTANDS THAT HE WILL BE FORCED TO ACCEPT THE BODY OF DOG OR HOG, HE CHOOSES NOT TO LEAVE THE PRESENT BODY. THEREFORE HE LIES IN A COMA MANY DAYS BEFORE DEATH.

       

                                 GHOSTS AND SUICIDE

                                                   💫

                       GHOSTS ARE BEREFIT OF A PHYSICAL BODY BECAUSE OF THEIR GRIEVOUSLY SINFUL ACTS, SUCH AS SUICIDE. THE LAST RESORT OF GHOSTLY CHARACTERS IN HUMAN SOCIETY IS TO TAKEN SHELTER OF SUICIDE, EITHER MATERIAL OR SPIRITUAL. MATERIAL SUICIDE CAUSES LOSS OF THE PHYSICAL BODY, AND SPIRITUAL SUICIDE CAUSES LOSS OF THE INDIVIDUAL IDENTITY.

THE TRUTH OF REINCARNATION (COMING BACK)

                          REINCARNATION IS UNKNOWN TO 

                                    MODERN SCIENTISTS

                                                                               💫

     

                           THIS SCIENCE OF TRANSMIGRATION IS COMPLETELY UNKNOWN TO MODERN SCIENTISTS. SO-CALLED SCIENTISTS DO NOT LIKE TO BOTHER WITH THESE THINGS BECAUSE IF THEY WOULD AT ALL CONSIDER THIS SUBTLE SUBJECT MATTER AND THE PROBLEMS OF LIFE, THEY WOULD SEE THAT THEIR FUTURE IS VERY DARK. 

                    IGNORANCE OF REINCARNATION

                    MODERN CIVILIZATION IS BASED ON FAMILY COMFORTS, THE HIGHEST STANDARD OF AMENTIES, AND THEREFORE AFTER RETIREMENT EVERYONE EXPECTS TO LIVE A VERY COMFORTABLE LIFE IN A WELL-FURNISHED HOME DECORATED WITH FINE LADIES AND CHILDREN, WITHOUT ANY DESIRE TO GET OUT OF SUCH A COMFORTABLE HOME. HIGH GOVERNMENT OFFICERS AND MINISTERS STICK TO THEIR PRIZE POSTS UNTIL DEATH, AND THEY NEITHER DREAM NOR DESIRE TO GET OUT OF HOMELY COMFORTS. BOUND BY SUCH HALLUCINATIONS, MATERIALISTIC MEN PREPARE VARIOUS PLANS FOR A STILL MORE COMFORTABLE LIFE, BUT SUDDENLY CRUEL DEATH COMES WITHOUT MERCY AND TAKES AWAY THE GREAT PLANMAKER AGAINST HIS DESIRE, FORCING HIM TO GIVE UP THE PRESENT BODY FOR ANOTHER BODY. SUCH A PLANMAKER IS THUS FORCED TO ACCEPT ANOTHER BODY IN ONE OF THE 8,400,000 SPECIES OF LIFE, ACCORDING TO THE FRUITS OF THE WORK HE HAS PERFORMED.

                    IN THE NEXT LIFE, PERSONS WHO WERE TOO MUCH ATTACHED TO FAMILY COMFORTS ARE GENERALLY AWARDED LOWER SPECIES OF LIFE ON ACCOUNT OF SINFUL ACTS PERFORMED DURING A LONG DURATION OF SINFUL LIFE, AND THUS ALL THE ENERG OF THE HUMAN LIFE IS SPOILED. IN ORDER TO BE SAVED FROM THE DANGER OF SPOILING THE HUMAN FORM AND BEING ATTACHED TO UNREAL THINGS, ONE MUST TAKE WARNING OF DEATH AT THE AGE OF FIFTY, IF NO EARLIER. THE PRINCIPLE IS THAT ONE SHOULD TAKE IT FOR GRANTED THAT THE DEATH WARNING IS ALREADY THERE, EVEN PRIOR TO THE ATTAINMENT OF FIFTY YEARS OF AGE, AND THUS AT ANY STAGE OF LIFE ONE SHOULD PREPARE HIMSELF FOR A BETTER NEXT LIFE.

                       OUR BODY COMPOSED OF

                               FIVE ELEMENTS

                                             💫

                                             

                 WHEN WE DIE, THIS MATERIAL BODY COMPOSED OF FIVE ELEMENTS - EARTH, WATER, AIR, FIRE, AND ETHER - DECOMPOSES, AND THE GROSS MATERIALS RETURN TO THE ELEMENTS. OR, AS THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE SAYS, "DUST THOU ART, AND UNTO DUST THOU SHALT RETURN". UB SINE SOCIETIES THE BODY IS BURNED, IN OTHERS IT IS BURIED, AND IN OTHER IT IS THROWN TO ANIMALS. IN INDIA, THE HINDUS BURN THE BODY, AND THUS THE BODY IS TRANSFORMED INTO ASHES. ASH IS SIMPLY ANOTHER FORM OF EARTH. CHRISTIANS BURY THE BODY, AND AFTER SOME TIME IN THE GRAVE, THE BODY EVENTUALLY TURNS TO DUST, WHICH AGAIN, LIKE ASH, IS ANOTHER FORM OF EARTH. THERE ARE OTHER SOCIETIES - LIKE THE PARSEE COMMUNITY IN INDIA - THAT NEITHER BURN NOR  BURY THE BODY, BUT THROW IT TO THE VULTURES, AND THE VULTURES IMMEDIATELY COME TO EAT THE BODY, AND THEN THE BODY IS EVENTUALY TRANSFORMED INTO STOOL. SO IN ANY CASE, THIS BEAUTIFUL BODY, WHICH WE ARE SOAPING AND CARING FOR SO NICELY, WILL EVENTUALLY TURN INTO EITHER STOOL, ASHES, OR DUST. AT DEATH, THE FINER ELEMENTS (MIND, INTELLIGENCE, AND EGO) CARRY THE SMALL PARTICLE OF SPIRIT SOUL TO ANOTHER BODY TO SUFFER OR ENJOY, ACCORDING TO ONE'S WEEK.

                      ASTROLOGY AND

                                   REINCARNATION

                                                 💫

                       

                   ASTRONOMICAL CALCULATIONS OF STELLAR INFLUENCES UPON A LIVING BEING ARE NOT SUPPOSITIONS, BUT ARE FACTUAL, AS CONFIRMED IN SRIMAD-BHAGAVATAM. EVERY LIVING BEING IS CONTROLLED BY THE LAWS OF NATURE AT EVERY MINUTE, JUST AS A CITIZEN IN CONTROLLED BY THE INFLUENCE OF THE STATE. THE STATE LAWS ARE GROSSLY OBSERVED, BUT THE LAWS  OF MATERIAL NATURE, BEING SUBTLE TO OUR GROSS UNDERSTANDING, CANNOT BE EXPERIENCED GROSSLY.

                      THE LAWS OF NATURE IS SO SUBTLE THAT EVERY PART OF OUR BODY IS INFLUENCED BY THE RESPECTIVE STARS, AND A LIVING BEING OBTAINS HIS WORKING BODY TO FULFILL HIS TERMS OF IMPRISONMENT BY THE MANIPULATION OF SUCH ASTRONOMICAL INFLUENCES. A MAN'S DESTINY IS THEREFORE ASCERTAINED BY THE BIRTH TIME CONSTELLATION OF STARS, AND A FACTUAL HOROSCOPE IS MADE BY A LEARNED ASTROLOGER. IT IS A GREAT SCIENCE, AND MISUSE OF A SCIENCE DOES NOT MAKE IT USELESS.

                    WHY SOME PEOPLE CANNOT ACCEPT 

                                      REINCARNATION

                                                      💫

                         THERE IS LIFE AFTER DEATH, AND THERE IS ALSO THE CHANCE TO FREE ONESELF FROM THE CYCLE OF REPEATED BIRTH AND DEATH AND ATTAIN A LIFE OF IMMORTALITY. BUT BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN ACCUSTOMED TO ACCEPTING ONE BODY AFTER ANOTHER SINCE TIME IMMEMORIAL, IT IS DIFFICULT FOR US TO THINK OF A LIFE THAT IS ETERNAL. AND THE LIFE OF MATERIAL EXISTENCE IS SO TROUBLESOME THAT ONE MAY THINK THAT IF THERE IS AN ETERNAL LIFE, THAT LIFE MUST BE TROUBLESOME ALSO. FOR EXAMPLE, A DISEASED MAN WHO IS TAKING  VERY BITTER MEDICINE AND WHO IS LYING DOWN IN BED, EATNG THERE PASSING STOOL AND URINE THERE, UNABLE TO MOVE, MAY FIND HIS LIFE SO INTOLERABLE THAT HIS THINKS, LET ME COMMIT SUICIDE, "SIMILARLY, MATERIALISTIC LIFE IS SO MISERABLE THAT IN DESPERATION ONE SOMETIMES TAKES TO A PHILOSOPHY OF VOIDISM OR IMPERSONALISM TO TRY TO NEGATE HIS VERY EXISTENCE AND MAKE EVERYTHING ZERO. ACTUALLY, HOWEVER, BECOMING ZERO IS NOT POSSIBLE, NOR IS IT NECESSARY. WE ARE IN TROUBLE IN OUR MATERIAL CONDITION, BUT WHEN WE GET OUT OF OUR MATERIAL CONDITION WE CAN FIND REAL LIFE, ETERNAL LIFE.
