WHY YOGIS CHOOSE MOUNTAINS WHILE MEDITATE

 

                    THE REASON YOGIS CHOOSE MOUNTAIN

                                    WHILE MEDITATE

                      WHY IS IT THAT YOGIS CHOOSE TO LIVE IN MOUNTAINS AND NOT IN THE PLAINS?

                         ANS :  JUST TO AVOID PEOPLE LIKE YOU, THAT'S ALL! WHY DO THEY CHOOSE MOUNTAINS? WHY NOT PLAINS, VALLEYS, OR COASTS? MEAN SEA LEVEL WOULD BE MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE, BECAUSE YOU COULD LIVE WITH BARE MINIMUM. A SANYASI ON A BEACH WOULD BE JUST FINE, ISN'T IT?  NO EXTRA CLOTHING NEEDED, NO PROBLEM. IT WOULD BE VERY EASY. ON THE MOUNTAINS, IT IS VERY DIFFERENT. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT, BUT THEY STILL CHOSE MOUNTAINS BECAUSE A MOUNTAIN IS A PLACE WHERE EARTH HAS RISEN TO REACH OUT TO YOU, SO THAT YOU DON'T ESCAPE.

                       A YOGI IS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR SMALL ENCLOSURES. A YOGI IS SOMEBODY WHO IS COMPLETELY RE-CREATING LIFE WITHING HIMSELF AND OUTSIDE OF HIMSELF. HE ALWAYS WANTS A PLACE WHICH IS SMALL IN SIZE, WHICH IS COMPACT, WHERE HE CAN CREATE HIS OWN KIND OF ENERGY AND HIS OWN KIND OF WORLD. IF YOU LOOK AT IT FROM YOUR PERCEPTION, THE CAVE IS JUST A SMALL HOLE TO CRAWL INTO, BUT IN HIS EXPERIENCE IT IS BIGGER THAN THE WORLD, BECAUSE TIME AND SPACE IS AN ILLUSION CREATED BY YOUR MIND. WHAT IS SMALL, WHAT IS BIG, WHAT IS NOW, WHAT IS THEN, IS ALL THE ILLUSION OF THE MIND. ONCE A PERSON HAS TRANSCENDED THIS LIMITATION, HE CAN CREATE A WHOLE UNIVERSE IN HIS CAVE.

                    MOUNTAINS ARE A PLACE WHERE EARTH HAS RISEN UP IN SOME WAY. IF YOU BORE A HOLE INTO THE GROUND, DIG A WELL TRY TO STAY IN IT, IT WILL NOT BE COMFORTABLE FOR MANY REASONS. SLOWLY, YOU MUST BECOME A FROG BECAUSE IT WILL FILL UP. BUT A MOUNTAIN CAVEIS IN THE MOUNTAIN ITSELF. IT IS THE ONLY PLACE WHERE YOU ARE ENVELOPED WITH EARTH ON ALL SIDES. THAT IS THE REASON WHY YOGIS ALWAYS CHOSE MOUNTAINS, NOT VALLEYS, NOT PLAINS, BECAUSE FOR THEIR WORK, THEY WANT TO BE SURROUNDED BY EARTH. THAT IS WHY WE HAVE BUILT THE DHYANALINGA LIKE A MOUND OF EARTH. IT IS SURROUNDED BY EARTH- THAT IS THE NEAREST THING THAT WE COULD DO.

                 A YOGI WANTS TO KEEP HIMSELF IN THAT KIND OF SITUATION WHERE HE IS SURROUNDED BY EARTH. A MOUNTAIN IS THE ONLY TOPOGRAPHY WHICH OFFERS CERTAIN OPPORTUNITIES. IT IS A CONSTANT REMINDER FOR THE BODY THAT THE PLAY OF ELEMENTS IN THE EARTH AND IN THIS BODY IS NOT DIFFERENT.

                      WALKING WITHOUT SLIPPERS

                    ONE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL THINGS IS THEY MUST WALK BAREFOOT FOR TWO HOURS ON THE EARTH AND PUT THEIR HANDS INTO THE EARTH. THAT IS THE BASIC EARLY MORNING TREATMENT FOR THEM. SO I SAID, "JUST GO OUT IN THE GARDEN AND ASK THEM WAHT IS THEIR AILMENT, THEY WILL EXPLAIN WHY THEY ARE HERE". BECAUSE IT IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE, EVEN AMONG THE MEDICAL FRATERNITY, THAT YOUR BODY'S DEFENSE MECHANISM WORKS AT ITS BEST WHEN YOU ARE PHYSICALLY ACTIVE. IF YOU JUST LIE DOWN, THE BACTERIAL LEVEL IN THE BODY GOES UP PHENOMENALLY, AND YOUR BODY'S ABILITY TO HANDLE ITSELF COMES DOWN DRAMATICALLY. HORIZONTAL POSITIONS REDUCE THE WHOLE BODY'S ITEGRITY. THIS IS THE REASON WHY PEOPLE ARE SITTING IN VERTICAL POSTURES FOR HOURS AND HORUS, BECAUSE  THEY ARE REORGANIZING THEIR SYSTEM.

                           IF THE BODY IS DETERIORATING FOR SOME REASON, IF YOU COME IN CONTACT, WITH THE EARTH, THERE ARE MANY SADHANAS THAT CAN BE DONE TO HEAL IT.

                      IT YOU DO THE RIGHT KIND OF SADHANA, IF YOU ARE IN TOUCH WITH EARTH, EVEN IF YOU JUST WALK BAREFOOT IN YOUR GARDEN EVERY DAY FOR AN HOUR WHERE THERE ARE NO TICKS AND THORNS, WITHIN A WEEK'S TIME YOUR SENSE OF HEALTH WILL BE GREATLY ENHANCED. JUST TRY THIS AND SEE. GET OFF YOUR HIGH COT, JUST SLEEP ON THE FLOOR. YOU CAN CLEARLY NOTICE THAT THERE WILL BE GREAT SENSE OF HEALTH IN YOUR BODY.

                       THIS IS THE REASON WHY IN THE INDIAN TRADITION, WE WERE ALWAYS TOLD TO EAT ON THE FLOOR AND SLEEP ON THE FLOOR. WHATEVER WE DO, WE SIT ON THE FLOOR, NOT BECAUSE WE CANNOT AFFORD A COT, BUT SIMPLY BECAUSE IN THE FIRST ONE-AND-A-HALF FEET FROM THE EARTH,THE THINKNESS OF THE PRANIC VIBRATION IS A LOT MORE THAN IT IS ABOVE. AS IT GOES UP, IT BECOMES THINNER AND THINNER. THAT IS WHY EVEN IF WE PLACE A DEITY, WE DON'T PLACE HIM ON A GREAT ALTAR, WE PLACE HIM VERY CLOSE TO EARTH. WE BUILT VERY LARGE TEMPLES, SUCH MASSIVE STRUCTURES, SO IT WOULD NOT BE DIFFICULT FOR US TO RAISE A ONE-HUNDRED FOOT PLATFORM AND PUT HIM THERE, BUT HE IS ALWAYS PUT LOW DOWN, ALMOST TO THE GROUND OR SLIGHTLY UP. THIS IS SIMPLY BECAUSE THE PRANIC VIBRATIONS ARE BEST, LOW DOWN.

                       THAT IS WHY ALL SPIRITUAL BEINGS GENERALLY MOVE TO THE MOUNTAINS OR CAVES, THOUGH THE CONDITIONS ARE NOT COMFORTABLE, BECAUSE IT GIVES YOU A CLOSER CONTACT WITH THE EARTH. IF YOU MAKE A HOLE OR A CAVE IN IT, THE EARTH IS ON ALL SIDES.

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.

                     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.

                                                 💫 

                    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.
