THE COSMO ENERGY

 

                       THE GEOMETRY OF THE COSMOS

                                                                  ❤❤❤

                  👉👀

                         THE WHOLE SCIENCE OF YOGA IS TO UNDERSTAND THE GEOMETRY OF YOUR EXISTENCE, BECAUSE THE WHOLE EXISTENCE IS A CERTAIN KIND OF GEOMETRY, AND YOUR BODY IS ALSO A CERTAIN KIND OF GEOMETRY".

                   CREATION IS A CERTAIN COMPLEXITY OF GEOMETRY. THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IS GEOMETRICALLY PERFECT. THAT IS WHY IT STAYS THERE, OTHERWISE IT WOULD NOT. IF YOU LEARN TO HOLD YOUR BODY IN A CERTAIN WAY, IF THE GEOMETRY OF YOUR BODY IS IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE GEOMETRY OF THE REST OF THE CREATION, SUDDENLY, YOU WILL FIND THERE IS A RAPPORT WHICH WILL ALLOW YOU TO DOWNLOAD THE WHOLE COSMOS.

                👉👀

                 THESE DAYS, SINCE "TATA SKY" AND "DISHNET" HAVE COME, THIS PROBLEM IS PROBABLY GONE FOR YOU, BUT BEFORE THAT, AFTER EVERY RAIN SHOWER, YOU WOULD HAVE TO GO AND ADJUST YOUR TV ANTENNA PROPERLY. YOU WOULD BE WATCHING YOUR FAVOURITE SOAP OPERA OR A CRICKET MATCH AND SUDDENLY THE IMAGE WOULD BE GONE. YOU WOULD HAVE TO GO UP AND FINE TUNE IT, OTHERWISE IT WOULD NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING. ONLY IF YOUR ANTENNA IS IN A CERTAIN WAY, YOU HAVE RECEPTION.

                   THIS BODY IS JUST LIKE THAT. YOU ARE HERE TO PERCEIVE THE EXISTENCE. IF YOU HOLD IT RIGHT WAY, IN THE RIGHT GEOMETRY, THIS CAN RECEIVE AND DOWNLOAD THE WHOLE COSMIC SPACE. TO HOLD IT IN A CERTAIN WAY, YOU MUST KEEP THE BODY IN A STATE OF EASE. OTHERWISE, IF IT IS IN A STATE OF RIGIDITY OR COMPULSION, YOU CANNOT GET INTO THAT PLACE WHERE IT BECOMES A RECEPTACLE OF THE EXISTENCE - IT WILL BLOCK IT AND NOT ALLOW IT GO HAPPEN.

                 👉👀

                     WITHIN YOUR OWN HOME AND OFFICE, AMONG YOUR FRIENDS, DO YOU SEE EVERY ONE OF YOU HAVE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF PERCEPTION? I WANT YOU TO JUST OBSERVE THIS - DON'T TALK ABOUT THIS - IF YOU FIND SOMEBODY AMONG YOUR FRIENDS OR FAMILY WHO HAS A BETTER PERCEPTION THAN OTHERS, YOU CAN SEE A VISIBLE DIFFERENCE IN THE WAY ARE NOT GETTING ANYTHING, SEE HOW THEY CONDUCT THEIR BODY. YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN BY GEOMETRY OF YOUR EXISTENCE. THE WAY YOU HOLD YOUR BODY WILL DETERMINE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU.

                    THE WHOLE YOGIS SYSTEM IS, IN A WAY, ABOUT ADJUSTIN THE GEOMETRY OF THE BODY SO THAT IT BECOMES AN ABSOLUTE ANTENNA FOR THE EXISTENCE TO HAPPEN WITHIN YOU, NOT OUTSIDE OF YOU. YOU CANNOT KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING OUTSIDE OF YOU, YOU ONLY KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING OUTSIDE OF YOU. ONLY IF YOU PERCEIVE IT YOU DO NOT KNOW. SO, IF YOU WANT TO ENHANCE YOUR PERCEPTION, YOU HAVE TO REFINE THE GEOMETRY OF YOUR BODY. YOGA IS JUST THAT.

             👉👀

                     TO LEARN TO SIMPLY SIT, DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH YOGA YOU HAVE TO DO? A LOT OF TRAINING IS NEEDED FOR A PERSON JUST TO BE ABLE TO SIT IN THE RIGHT POSTURE TO DO A PARTICULAR KIND OF ACT. IF YOU SO MUCH AS JUST MOVE THE HANDS AND LEGS, IT CHANGES EVERYTHING. THE HANDS AND LEGS ARE VERY IMPORTANT. EVEN MEDICALLY, YOU KNOW THAT THE MAXIMUM NERVE-ENDINGS ARE IN THE HANDS AND LEGS. THE MEDICL SYSTEM ACKNOWLEDGES THAT YOUR NERVES ARE TRANSMITTING PERCEPTION.

                 YOUR PERCEPTION IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. DID YOU PERCEIVE EVERYTHIG THAT A HUMAN BEING CAN PERCEIVE OR DID YOU GO UNLIVED ? THAT IS ALL THE QUESTION IS FOR ME. HOW LONG YOU LIVED IS NOT AT ALL IMPORTANT, ISN'T IT? IF YOU WANT TO PERCEIVE EVERYTHING, YOU MUST LEARN TO ARRANGE THE GEOMETRY OF YOUR SYSTEM PROPERLY. THAT IS WHY WE START OFF WITH ASANAS, MUDRAS, AND KRIYAS - TO ARRANGE THE ENERGY GEOMETRY OF YOUR SYSTEM IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT BECOMES CAPABLE OF EXPERIENCING THE COSMOS ITSELF.

THE ISHA KRIYA - MEDITATION

                                          ISHA KRIYA

               👉👀❤

                      ISHA KRIYA IS A SIMPLE YET POTENT PRACTICE ROOTED IN THE TIMELESS WISDOM OF THE YOGIC SCIENCE. "ISHA" REFERS TO THAT WHICH IS THE SOURCE OF  CREATION, "KRIYA" LITERALLY MEANS "INTERNAL ACTION" . THE PURPOSE OF ISHA KRIYA IS TO HELP AN INDIVIDUAL GET IN TOUCH WITH THE SOURCE OF HIS EXISTENCE, TO CREATE LIFE ACCORDING TO HIS OWN WISH AND VISION.

                      THROUGH ISHA KRIYA, A 12-MINUTE PRACTICE, AN INDIVIDUAL CAN PURSUE IMMEDIATE AND ULTIMATE WELLBEING, EXPERIENCING SUCCESS IN THE SOCIAL SPHERE,WHILE NOURISHING THE INNER LONGING FOR THE DEEPER DIMENSIONS OF LIFE. ISHA KRIYA EMPOWERS AN INDIVIDUAL TOWARDS A STREES-FREE WAY OF BEING, AND PROMOTES ENHANCED CLARITY, HEIGHTENED ENERGY LEVELS, AND A STATE OF PEACEFULNESS AND JOY. DAILY PRACTICE OF ISHA KRIYA BRINGS HEALTH, DYNAMISM AND HAPPINESS. IT IS A POWERFUL TOOL TO COPE WITH THE HECTIC PACE OF MODERN LIFE.

                       👉👀❤

                    ISHA KRIYA REQUIRES NO SPECIAL PHYSICAL AGILITY OR PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE OF YOGA TO PRACTICE. IT INTEGRATES SEAMLESSLY INTO ONE'S DAILY LIFE, BRINGING THE POSSIBILITIES OF A SPIRITUAL PROCESS - WHICH WERE ONCE AVAILABLE ONLY TO YOGIS AND ASCETICS - TO EVERY HUMAN BEING IN THE COMFORT OF THEIR OWN HOME. CREATED BY SADHGURU, IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO TRANSFORM THE LIFE OF ANYONE WHO IS WILLING TO INVEST JUST A FEW MINUTES A DAY. THE INSTRUCTION FOR ISHA KRIYA ARE GIVEN BELOW.

                                    PREPARATION

                    👉👀❤

                     SIT FACING EAST IN A CROSS-LEGGED POSTURE, WITH YOUR SPINE COMFORTABLY ERECT.

                    KEEP YOUR HANDS UPON YOUR THIGHS, WITH YOUR PALMS FACING UP.

                    WITH YOUR FACE SLIGHTLY UPTURNED, EYES CLOSED, KEEP A MILD FOCUS BETWEEN YOUR EYEBROWS.

                           THE MEDITATION

                      👉👀❤

                            THIS MEDITATION HAPPENS IN THREE STAGES :

                     STAGE 1

                      INHALE AND EXHALE GENTLY, SLOWLY.

                    WITH EACH INHALATION, MENTALLY SAY TO YOURSELF, "I AM NOT THE BODY". THE INHALATION SHOULD LAST THE WHOLE DURATION OF THAT THOUGHT.

                   WITH EACH EXHALATION, MENTALLY SAY TO YOURSELF, "I AM NOT EVEN THE MIND". THE EXHALATION SHOULD LAST FOR THE WHOLE DURATION OF THAT THOUGHT.

                  REPEAT THIS FOR 7 TO 11 MINUTES.

              STAGE 2

                        👉👀❤

                        UTTERL A LONG "A" SOUND (AS THE "A" IN FATHER) . THE SOUND SHOULD COME FROM JUST BELOW THE NAVEL. YOU NEED NOT UTTER IT VERY LOUD, BUT LOUD ENOUGH TO FEEL THE VIBRATION.

                          UTTER THE LONG "A" SOUND 7 TIMES, EXHALING FULLY INTO EACH SOUND.

                  STAGE 3

                       👉👀❤

                        SIT FOR 5 TO 6 MINUTES WITH A SLIGHTLY UPTURNED FACE, AND KEEP A MILD FOCUS BETWEEN YOUR EYEBROWS.

                          THE TOTAL TIME OF THIS PRACTICE IS BETWEEN 12 TO 18 MINUTES. YOU CAN SIT LONGER IF YOU WANT.

                 PLEASE NOTE  👉👀❤

                      WHILE YOU SIT FOR THE ISHA KRIYA, DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THE ACTIVITY OF THE MIND OR BODY. WHATEVER IS HAPPENING IN YOUR BODY OR YOUR MIND, JUST IGNORE IT AND SIMPLY SIT THERE.

                     DO NOT TAKE A BREAK IN BETWEEN, AS IT WILL DISTURB THE REORGANIZATION OF ENERGIES THAT HAPPENS DURING THE PRACTICE.

                  EACH TIME YOU DO THE KRIYA, YOU MUST DO IT FOR A MINIMUM OF 12 MINUTES, AND TWICE A DAY FOR 48 DAYS (CONSIDERED AS A FULL MANDALA OR CYLCE), OR ONCE A DAY FOR 90 DAYS. THIS IS YOUR COMMITMENT. THIS IS YOUR GURUDAKSHINA (A TRADITIONAL OFFERING A GURU).

                 ANYONE CAN PRACTICE THIS KRIYA AND ENJOY ITS BENEFITS. SIMPLY FOLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS WITHOUT MAKING ANY CHANGES. THIS IS A SIMPLE BUT VERY POTENT KRIYA.

                 YOU CAN REMIND YOURSELF THAT "I AM NOT THE BODY.  I AM NOT EVEN THE MIND" ANYTIME DURING THE DAY.

THE OUT OF THE MIND- "BUDDHA"

 

                          HOW TO HANDLE THE MIND 

                                                                            👀👀

                      THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF YOGA, HOW CAN ONE TRANSCEND THE MIND?💫💫

             👉❤

                      ANS: THE WHOLE PROCESS OF YOGA IS TO TRANSCEND THE LIMITATIONS OF THE MIND. AS LONG AS YOU ARE IN MIND, YOU ARE RULED BY THE PAST, IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT LIFE ONLY THROUGH THE MIND, THEN YOU WILL MAKE YOUR FUTURE JUST LIKE THE PAST, NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS. ISN'T THE WORLD ENOUGH PROOF OF THAT? IF DOES NOT MATTER WHAT OPPORTUNITIES COME OUR WAY THROUGH SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGYAND MANY OTHER THINGS, AREN'T WE REPEATING THE SAME HISTORICAL SCENES AGAIN AND AGAIN?

                      IF YOU TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR OWN LIFE, YOU WILL SEE THE SAME REPETITION HAPPENING, BECAUSE AS LONG AS YOU ARE FUNCTIONING ONLY OLD DATA. THE PAST IS CARRIED ONLY IN YOUR MIND. ONLY BECAUSE YOUR MIND IS ACTIVE, PAST EXISTS. SUPPOSE ALL YOUR MIND CEASES RIGHT NOW, ONLY PRESENT, BUT PAST EXITS THROUGH OUR MINDS. OR IN OTHER WORDS, MIND IS KARMA. IF YOU TRANSCEND THE MIND, YOU TRANSCEND THE KARMIC BONDAGE ALTOGETHER, IN ONE STROKE. IF YOU WANT TO SOLVE THEM ONE BY ONE, IT MAKE A MILLION YEARS. IN THE PROCESS OF SOLVING, YOU ARE ALSO BUILDING NEW STOCK OF KARMA.

           👉❤

              YOUR OLD STOCK OF KARMA IS NOT THE PROBLME AT ALL. YOU SHOULD LEARN HOW NOT TO CREATE NEW STOCK. THAT IS THE MAIN THING. OLD STOCK WILL WEAR OUT BY ITSELF, NO BIG THINGS NEED TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. BUT THE FUNDAMENTAL THING IS YOU LEARN HOW NOT TO CREATE NEW STOCK. THEN, LEAVING THE OLD STOCK IS VERY SIMPLE.

                     ONCE YOU LEARN HOW NOT TO USE THE MIND AND SIMPLY LOOK AT LIFE, IT IS THE ULTIMATE GAME YOU CAN PLAY, BECAUSE THE ULTIMATE BECOMES AVAILABLE TO YOU ONLY THROUGH THAT. THROUGH THE DISTORTIONS OF THE MIND, YOU CANNOT PERCEIVE ANYTHING.

                      👉❤

                    HAVE YOU HEARD OF THE WORD "BUDDHA"? WHEN I SAY "BUDDHA" YOU ARE ALWAYS THINKING OF THAT PARTICULAR MAN - GAUTAMA THE BUDDHA. GAUTAMA IS NOT THE ONLY BUDDHA, THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF BUDDHAS ON THIS PLANET, AND THERE STILL ARE. HIS SECOND NAME IS NOT BUDDHA, HE IS GAUTAMA SIDDHARTHA. HE BECAME A BUDDHA.

                WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BECOME A BUDDHA? "BU" MEANS "BUDDHI" THE INTELLECT. ONE WHO IS ABOVE HIS INTELLECT IS A BUDDHA. ONE WHO IS IN HIS INTELLECT IS A NON-STOP SUFFERING HUMAN BEING. NO MATTER WHAT IS HAPPENING, HIS ANXIETIES, HIS FEARS, HIS NONSENSE, HIS CONFUSION WILL NEVER GO AWAY AS LONG AS HE IS IN THE INTELLECT.

                     👉❤

                    HAVE YOU NOTICED THIS? NO MATTER HOW WELL YOU ARE PLACED, CONSTANLY THE MIND IS STRUGGLE. YOU THINK EVERYTHING IS PERFECT, BUT YOU TURN BACK AND SEE, YOUR ANXIETIES AND YOUR FEARS ARE SITTING RIGHT THERE BEHIND YOU LIKE YOUR TAIL. IT FOLLOWS YOU WHEREVER YOU GO. YOU LOOK AT THE SUNRISE AND YOU FORGET ABOUT EVERYTHING, BUT WHEN YOU TURN BACK AND SEE, IT IS RIGHT THERE. IF YOU WERE BELOW THE MIND, YOU WOULD NOT KNOW THIS KIND OF SUFFERING.

                  IT IS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE UNABLE TO BEAR THE TORTURE OF THE MIN THAT THEY HAVE DEVISED MANY WAYS IN SOCIETY TO GO BELOW THE MIND. EXCESSIVE EATING, ALCOHOL, EXCESSIVE INDULGENCE IN PHYSICAL PLEASURES, THESE ARE WAYS TO GO BELOW THE MIND. PEOPLE USE THEM AND FOR A FEW MOMENTS THEY CAN FORGET THE TORTURE. YOU HIT THE BOTTEL AND SLEEP. FOR A FEW HOURS, YOUR MIND DOES NOT BOTHER YOU ANY MORE  BECAUSE YOU HAVE GONE BELOW THE MIND. THERE IS A GREAT PLEASURE AND IT IS SO RELAXING BECAUSE SUDDENLY, THE TORTURES OF YOUR MIND ARE NOT THERE. SO YOU GET DEEPLY ADDICTED TO IT. BUT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS GOING BACK. IF YOU GO BELOW THE MIND BY USING A CHEMICAL, LIFE ALWAYS CATCHES UP WITH YOU WITH MORE INTENSITY AFTER THAT IS OVER, SUFFERING INTENSIFIES.

                       👉❤

                     ONCE YOU HAVE THIS DISTANCE, YOUR ABILITY TO USE THE MIND IS TREMENDOUSLY ENHANCED. SO IF SOMEONE SAYS, "YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR MIND", DON'T FEEL INSULTED. IT IS THE HIGHEST COMPLIMENT. THEY ARE SAYING YOU ARE A BUDDHA. PEOPLE USUALLY UNDERSTAND "OUT OF THE MIND" AS MADNESS. MADNESS IS OF THE MIND. AS LONG AS YOU ARE IN THE MIND, YOU CANNOT ESCAPE THE MADNESS. YOU MAY EITHER BE IN SOCIALLY ACCEPTED LEVELS OF MADNESS OR YOU MAY CROSS THAT SOCIALLY ACCEPTED LEVEL, BUT SOME LEVEL OF MADNESS IS GOING ON IN EVERYONE. IF YOU ARE OUT OF THE MIND, CAN YOU BE MAD? ONLY IF YOU ARE OUT OF THE CIRCUS OF YOUR MIND, YOU WILL BE HUNDRED PERCENT FREE OF MADNESS.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HALLUCINATION AND REALITY

                     HALLUCINATION AND REALITY!

                                                 💫

                    HOW DOES WE KNOW SPIRITUAL PATH OF 

                       HALLUCINATING OR REALITY? 

                                                                              ❤❤

                             HOW DOES ONE KNOW WHETHER THEY ARE HALLUCINATING OR EXPERIENCING REALITY, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE ON THE SPIRITUAL PATH?👀👀

                       REALITY CAN BE MUCH MORE UNREAL THAN HALLUCINATION. WHAT NEUROSCIENTISTS AND PHYSICISTS ARE TALKING TODAY IS FAR MORE FAIRYTALE-ISH THAN ANYTHING THAT YOU HAVE KNOWN AS FAIRY TALES. IT IS SO FREAKISH AND OUTLANDISH. WHENEVER YOGIS SPOKE ABOUT THIS, PEOPLE THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING GREAT. IT IS JUST PERCEPTION, THEY JUST DESCRIBED WHAT THEY SAW.

                       HALLUCINATION MEANS YOU ARE MAKING IT UP SO POWERFUL THAT YOU BELIEVE IT - THAT IS DANGEROUS. IF YOU ARE GENUINELY HALLUCINATING, IT MEANS YOU ARE MAKING UP THINGS SO POWERFULLY IN YOUR MIND THAT IT SEEMS REAL. IF YOU CREATE IT IN YOUR MIND AND EMPOWER IT WITH YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS, IT CAN BECOME A LIVE PROCESS.

                        THE WHOLE SCIENCE OF TANTRA YOGA IS JUST THIS. I KNOW IF I UTTER THE WORD "TANTRA" PEOPLE ARE THINKING ABOUT ACROBATIC SEXUALITY. IT IS TRULY A SCRILEGE THAT PEOPLE WHO GENERALLY VISIT INDIA FOR A MONTH OR TWO AT THE MOST, BECOME "EXPERTS" IN TANTRA AND WRITE BOOKS ABOUT IT.

                         TANTRA LITERALLY MEANS " A TECHNOLOGY". TECHNOLOGY IS MEANT FOR CREATING WHAT YOU WANT. THE PHYSICAL TECHNOLOGIES THAT WE KNOW AROUND US ARE ALL ABOUT CREATING PHYSICAL SITUATIONS THE WAY WE WANT IT. WHEN HUMAN MINDS TRY TO CREATE WHAT THEY WANT, THEY WILL ASK FOR MANY THINGS. MOST OF THE TIME, YOU WOULD BE FORTUNATE IF YOUR PRAYERS ARE NOT ANSWERED BECAUSE IF ALL YOUR PRAYERS WERE ANSWERED, YOUR LIFE WOULD BE TRULY A DISASTER.

                       IMAGINATION CAN DO MIRACULOUS THINGS. IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH CONTROL OVER YOUR LIFE ENERGIES AND CAN EMPOWER YOUR IMAGINATION, IT WILL BECOME A REALITY. THERE ARE MANY YOGIS WHO LIVE IN THEIR OWN WORLDS WITH THEIR OWN KIND OF PLANETS, EARTH, EVERYTHING. THEY LIVE IN A CAVE, BUT THEY HAVE USED THEIR IMAGINATION AND THEIR LIFE ENERGIES TO CREATE A WHOLE NEW DIMENSION OF LIFE. HE LIVES THERE HAPPILY. A UNIVERSE IS CONTAINED INSIDE THE CAVE.

                       YOU CAN ACTUALLY WALK THROUGH IT. THIS IS WHAT MODERN PHYSICISTS ARE ALSO TELLING YOU. YOU CAN CREATE MULTIPLE REALITIES IN THE SAME PLACE RIGHT HERE. TODAY, NEUROSCIENTISTS ARE SAYING THERE ARE MANY DIMENSIONS OF REALITIES HAPPENING RIGHT HERE, AND IN YOUR PERCEPTION, A COMPLEX PERCEPTION OF ALL THIS IS HAPPENING, BUT YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO COMPUTE IT AND MAKE IT INTO A SENSBILE PICTURE.

                     THE INDIVIDUAL IDENFICATION HAS BECOME SO STRONG THAT IT HAS COMPLETELY DISLOCATED THE HUMAN BEING FROM HIS ORIGINAL NATURE, AND HE HAS STOPPED OPERATING AS LIFE. IF HE OPERATES AS JUST LIFE AND LIFE ALONE, HIS CAPABILITIES ARE IMMENSE AND NO LONGER LIMITED TO WHAT IS CONTAINED WITHIN HIS PHYSICAL FORM, BECAUSE HE HAS ACCESS TO EVERYTHING. THE WHOLE TANTRA YOGA IS ABOUT THIS, ABOUT BREAKING THE INDIVIDUAL SHELL SO THAT WHAT YOU DO DOES NOT HAPPEN AS A PETTY INDIVIDUALS, BUT HAPPEN AS A WHOLE.

                  THIS IS IMAGINATION. ACCORDING TO MODERN PHYSICS AND NEUROSCIENCES, THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN IMAGINATION AND HALLUCINATION IS VERY THIN, BUT THERE IS A DISTINCTION. THE DISTINCTION IS JUST THIS - YOU HAVE IMAGINATION WHICH IS UNCONSCIOUS, NOT A CONSCIOUS PROCESS. IF YOU COULD DO THE SAME HALLUCINATION CONSCIOUSLY AND EMPOWER IT WITH YOUR ENERGY, IT CAN BECOME REALITY.

                    WHAT IS HALLUCINATION, WHAT IS REALITY? IF YOU WANT A DISTINCTION, THE IMPORTANT OR THE NEGATIVE ASPECT OF HALLUCINATION IS THAT IT IS GOING UNCONTROLLED, IT IS NOT CONSCIOUS. IT CAN TAKE YOU ANYWHERE AND DESTROY YOUR YOUR LIFE BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER WHAT YOU ARE IMAGINING. THAT IS THE PROBLEM. IT IS NOT EMPOWERED BY LIFE ENERGY, SO IT IS TAKING FROM REALITY. IT IS NOT ESTABLISHING YOU INTO REALITY NOR IS IT HELPING YOU TO CREATE ANOTHER REALITY. IT IS JUST TAKING YOU AWAY FROM REALITY - THAT IS THE DANGER OF HALLUCINATION. IF YOU COULD CONTROL YOUR HALLUCINATION, IF YOU CAN HAVE ONLY BEAUTIFUL HALLUCINATION, WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT? YOU COULD HALLUCINATE ALL THE TIME. BUT THE PROBLEM IS YOU ARE UNABLE TO CONTROL THE HALLUNICINATION, SO IT WILL GO WHICHEVER WAY IT GOES. TODAY IT WILL BE WONDERFUL, TOMORROW IT CAN TAKE YOU INTO THE DUMPS, AND AFTER SOME TIME IT IS TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL. THAT AMOUNTS TO MADNESS.

                           WHEN YOU ARE DOING SPIRITUAL PRACTICES, HOW TO KNOW WHETHER YOU ARE HALLUCINATING OR WHETHER IT IS REAL? IF THERE IS A DOUNT THAT YOU ARE HALLUCINATING, IT IS BETTER THAT THE BENEFIT OF DOUBT IS GIVEN TO HALLUCINATION THAN TO YOUR EXPERIENCE, BECAUSE IF THERE IS A GENUINE EXPERIENCE, SOME TRANSFORMATION WILL HAPPEN BY ITSELF. IF IT IS HALLUCINATION IT IS ANYWAY A WASTE OF TIME. SO IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT, IT IS BETTER TO SIMPLY SEE THAT YOU ARE HALLUCINATING BECAUSE ONCE YOU START CREDITING HALLUCINATION AS REAL, THEN YOU WILL HAVE NO CONTROL OVER IT. IT WILL JUST GO WILD.

HAVE YOU KNOW ABOUT ANIMALS SUFFERING ?

                      WHY HUMAN BEINGS SUFFER

                         MORE THAN ANIMALS? 

                                                                     💫 

                          YOUR MIND IS NOT A SOLID STATE, YOUR MIND IS A FLUID. YOU CAN MAKE IT TAKE ON ANY SHAPE.

                                                                             ❤❤❤

                  WHY DO HUMAN BEINGS SUFFER MORE THAN ANIMALS?

                                                                         👀👀

                    👉👀❤

                         ANS : YOUR CONCERN IS ONLY ABOUT HUMAN SUFFERING AND HUMAN WELLBEING, SO YOU NOTICE ONLY THAT. YOU DO NOT NOTICE THE SUFFERING THAT ANIMALS ARE GOING THROUGH. PEOPLE THINK IT IS ONLY THEY WHO ARE SUFFERING, BUT THE WAY HUMAN BEINGS ARE LIVING, THEY ARE MAKING EVERYTHING IN THE EXISTENCE SUFFER. EVERY DAY AS YOU WALK AROUND, YOU PROBABLY STEP ON A HUDRED ANTS. SOME OF THEM DIE, SOME OF THEM STRUGGLE - THEY ARE SUFFERING, BUT YOU DO NOT KNOW THEIR SUFFERING. YOUR SUFFERING IS ONLY THAT YOUR LEGS ARE ACHING FROM HAVING TO WALK AROUND. IT IS ALWAYS A RELATIVE PERCEPTION.

                   YOUR SUFFERING, YOUR ENJOYMENT, AND YOUR WELLBEING ARE ALWAYS FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE YOUR EXPERIENCE OF LIFE IS THROUGH YOU. THE SEAT OF YOUR EXPERIENCE IS WITHIN YOU, SO YOU SEE EVERYTHING ONLY FROM YOUR CONTEXT. IN THAT CONTEXT YOU ARE SAYING HUMANS SUFFER MORE THAN ANIMALS. IF YOU WERE TO GO AND TALK TO THE ANTS, THEY WOULD HAVE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT YOU AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE WORLD. THE ANTS ARE SUFFERING MUCH MORE THAN HUMAN BEINGS ARE BECAUSE THEY ARE MORE IN NUMBER.

                  👉👀❤

                    BUT THE THING IS, ANIMALS ONLY SUFFER PHYSICALLY, IF THINGS GO WRONG. HUMAN BEINGS SUFFER MUCH MORE THAN OTHER CREATURES BECAUSE WE HAVE A DISCRETIONARY INTELLECT. MOST OF A HUMAN BEING'S SUFFERING IS MENTAL, AND MENTAL SUFFERING IS SELF-CREATED. A HUMAN BEING IS AN EXPERT AT CREATING SUFFERING FOR HIMSELF AND FOR OTHERS. THIS IS BECAUSEHE HAS A DISCRETIONARY MIND - HE CAN CHOOSE TO BE ANY WAY HE WANTS RIGHT NOW. HE CAN MAKE HIMSELF JOYFUL OR MAKE HIMSELF MISERABLE. YOU CAN MAKE ANYTHING OUT OF YOUR MIN. THIS CHOICE IS THERE AT EVERY MOMENT.

                   YOUR MIND IS NOT A SOLID STATE, IT IS A FLUID, YOU CAN MAKE IT TAKE ON ANY SHAPE. YOU COULD LOOK AT A TREE AND SAY, "OH! GOD IS LIVING THERE. HOW WONDERFUL! OR YOU COULD LOOK AT THE TREE IN TERROR AND SAY, "MAYBE DEVILS ARE HANGING AROUND THERE". THERE IS NO END TO THE MIND. YOU ARE CAPABLE OF BECOMING ANYTHING AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. UNFORTUNATELY, MOST PEOPLE HAVE LEARNED HOW TO MAKE MISERY OUT OF THEMSELVES. THAT IS THE PROBLEM.

                      👉👀❤

                    AT ANIMAL DOES NOT HAVE ALL THESE PROBLEMS. IF YOU HAD COME HERE AS ANY OTHER CREATURE, LIFE WOULD BE VERY SIMPLE FOR YOU. WHEN A TIGER IS BORN, HE DOES NOT SIT AND WORRY, "HOW SHOULD I BECOME A GOOD TIGER? WHICH GOD SHOULD I WORSHIP? WHAT UNIVERSITY SHOULD I GO TO? HE HAS NONE OF THESE PROBLEMS. IF HE JUST FINDS ENOUGH FOOD, HE WILL BECOME A GOOD TIGER? WHAT IF I END UP AS A HOUSECAT? THESE KINDS OF STRUGGLES ARE NOT THERE IS HIM. BUT YOU WERE BORN AS A HUMAN BEING. TO BECOME A GOOD HUMAN BEING, LOOK AT HOW MANY THINGS YOU HAVE TO DO. AND EVEN AFTER DOING ALL THESE THINGS, YOU STILL DO NOT KNOW WHERE YOU BELONG. ONLY IN COMPARISON WITH SOMEONE ELSE CAN YOU SAY, "I AM A BETTER MAN, BUT BY YOURSELF, YOU DO NOT KNOW WHERE YOU STAND.

                   IT IS THIS FREEDOM WHICH IS CAUSING ALL THE PAIN AND STRUGGLE FOR A HUMAN BEING. HUMAN BEINGS ARE NOT SUFFERING THEIR BONDAGE, THEY ARE SUFFERING THEIR FREEDOM, AND THAT IS THE BIGGEST TRAGEDY. IF BONDAGE WAS THE SOURCE OF MISERY, IT IS BAD ENOUGH, BUT WE COULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BREAK THAT ONE BONDAGE THAT IS HOLDING YOU DOWN. BUT IF FREEDOM BECOMES THE SOURCE OF MISERY, WHAT KIND OF SOLUTION CAN WE FIND?

                            👉👀❤

                     THAT WHICH COULD BE A WAY TO BEING UNLIMITED HAS BECOME A WAY TO SUFFERING SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU ARE UNCONSCIOUS. FREEDOM IS ONLY A PROBLEM WHEN YOU ARE UNAWARE. IF YOU WERE AWARE, THE SAME FREEDOM WOULD BE YOUR BENEDICTION. WHY MEDITATION HAS BEEN GIVEN SO MUCH IMPORTANCE IS BECAUSE IT IS ABOUT MAKING YOU AS CONSCIOUS AS POSSIBLE, SO THAT YOU DON'T SUFFER YOUR FREEDOM - YOU MAKE USE OF YOUR FREEDOM TO FLOWER INTO A LARGER DIMENSION OF WHO YOU ARE. EVERY HUMAN BEING IS BORN WITH THE SAME POSSIBILITY, BUT ALL OF THEM DO NOT MAKE THEMSELVES INTO THE SAME THINGS EVEN IF THEY ARE GIVEN THE SAME OPPORTUNITIES - BECAUSE IT IS CONSCIOUS, YOU CAN MAKE YOURSELF WHAT YOU WANT - THIS MOMENT YOU CAN MAKE YOUR LIFE INTO HEAVEN, OR YOU CAN MAKE YOUR LIFE INTO HELL. THE CHOICE IS YOURS.

                       THERE IS A VERY BEAUTIFUL STORY. THERE WAS A YOGI WHO WAS OLD AND NEARING THE END OF HIS LIFE. HE WENT ABOUT TELLING EVERYONE THAT HE WAS GOING TO HEAVEN. ALL THE OTHER YOGIS LOOKED AT HIM AND WONDERED, " HOW DOES HE KNOW IS GOING TO HEAVEN? BUT THE .YOGI VERY CONFIDENTLY WENT ABOUT TELLING THIS TO EVERYONE IN TOWN.

                      👉👀❤

                      ONE DAY, ALL OF THEM GATHERED AND ASKED THE YOGI, "HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU WILL GO TO HEAVEN? YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S ON GOD'S MIND, WHETHER HE WANTS TO SEND YOU TO HEAVEN OR HELL.

                        THE YOGI SAID, "I DON'T CARE WHAT'S ON GOD'S MIND. I KNOW WHAT'S ON MY MIND. I AM GOING TO HEAVEN AND THAT'S ALL.

                       AND THAT IS ALL IT IS.❤❤

                            👉👀❤

                     "IF YOU ARE GENUINELY HALLUCINATING , IT MEANS YOU ARE MAKING UP THINGS SO POWERFUL IN YOUR MIND THAT IT SEEMS REAL. IF YOU CREATE IT IN YOUR MIND AND EMPOWER IT WITH YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS, IT CAN BECOME A LIVE PROCESS".

THE WAY OF WONDERFUL LIFE (BHAKTI)

 

     

                              THE DEFINITION OF 

                            BHAKTI OR DEVOTION

                                                💫

                   CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE PATH OF BHAKTI OR DEVOTION?

                                                                         👀👀

                            ANS : DEVOTION IS THE QUICKEST WAY TO GET THE ULTIMATE, BUT THE WAY PEOPLE HAVE BECOME TODAY, WITH THE INTELLECT BEING BROUGH FORTH TO THIS LEVEL, YOU CANNOT TO A DEVOTEE. A DEVOTEE HAS NO AGENDAN OF HIS OWN. HIS ONLY OBJECTIVE IS TO DISSOLVE INTO HIS OBJECT OF DEVOTION. LET US SAY HE IS A DEVOTEE OF SHIVA. IT MEANS HE HUST WANTS TO MERGE OR DIE INTO SHIVA. THAT IS ALL HE KNOWS. HE IS NOT THINKING OF LIVING WELL OR BECOMING RICH OR GOING TO HEAVEN. ARE YOU LIKE THAT? NO. FOR YOU, DEVOTION IS A CURRENCY FOR AN EASIER LIFE. LOOK AT THE PRAYERS IN THE WORLD. NINETY-NINE PERCENT OF THEM ARE JUST SAYING, "GIVE ME THIS, GIVE ME THAT, SAVE ME, PROTECT ME, ISN'T IT SO?

                    THIS IS NOT DEVOTION, THIS IS A DEAL, YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE A STUPID DEAL. IF YOU REALLY WANT TO BECOME A DEVOTEE, AND ATTAIN TO THE ULTIMATE THROUGH DEVOTION, THEN YOU HAVE NO AGENDA FOR YOURSELF. YOU DO NOT WANT LIFE TO GO YOUR WAY. YOU JUST WANT TO MERGE WITH THE ULTIMATE, THAT IS ALL. IF YOU ARE LIKE THAT, DEVOTION IS THE QUICKEST WAY TO REALISATION. IT IS VERY QUICK.

                  👉❤

                BUT TODAY, WITH ALL YOUR EDUCATION AND THIS QUESTIONING MIND, DEVOTION IS OUT OF THE QUESTION. PLEASE LOOK AT IT. ARE YOU CAPABLE OF BECOMING TRULY DEVOUT TOWARDS SOMEONE? NO. SO DON'T TALK ABOUT IT. I AM NOT SAYING THERE IS NO ELEMENT OF DEVOTION AT ALL IN YOU. THERE IS. IT CAN ONLY TAKE SMALL RIDES ON IT - YOU CAN SIT IN THE TEMPLE FOR TEN MINUTES AND SAY, "SHIVA, SAVE ME". AND YOU GET CONFIDENCE TO GO THROUGH THE NEXT TWENTY-FOUR HOURS . TO THAT EXTENT IT WORKS. BUT IT CANNOT BE YOUR ULTIMATE JOURNEY BECAUSE YOUR INTELLECT IS NOT WILLING TO BEND DOWN TO ANYONE TOTALLY, UNLESS YOU COME TO A CERTAIN LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE WHERE YOU NATURALLY PROGRESS INTO BECOMING A DEVOTEE.

                      👉❤

                    AT THE ASHRAM, HAPPENS THAT PEOPLE COME AS INVESTIGATORS. SLOWLY, THEY BEOCME STUDENTS, THEN THEY BECOME DISCIPLES, THEN THEY BECOME DEVOTEES. THAT IS A NATURAL PROGRESSION OF LIFE. AS THEIR EXPERIENCE BECOMES DEEPER AND DEEPER, THEY HAVE NO OPTION. THEY ARE TOO OVERWHELMED WITH WHAT IS HAPPENING. THEN THEY CANNOT HELP BLOWING DOWN COMPLETELY. JUST BOWING DOWN AND TOUCHING SOMEONE'S FEET IS NOT DEVOTION. YOU ARE BENDING DOWN BECAUSE THERE IS GOING TO BE A BENEFIT. SOMEONE HAS TOLD YOU, IF YOU GET BLESSINGS FROM SOME GURU, THINGS WILL HAPPEN WILL. YOUR BUSINESS WILL WORK WELL OR YOUR CHILDREN WILL HE HEALTHY. SO YOU BEND DOWN. IT IS OKAY, YOU GET THAT ALSO. TO THAT EXTEND DEVOTION WORKS FOR YOU, BUT NOT AS AN ULTIMATE VEHICLE TO TAKE YOU BEYOND.

                       👉❤

                    YOU HAVE TO USE OTHER THINGS THAT YOU HAVE. YOU ARE RIGHT NOW ENJOYING THE CIRCUS OF THE INTELLECT. YOU LIKE IT. SUPPOSE YOU DISCOVER SOMETHING TODAY, YOU GET VERY THRILLED. YOU SPEND YOUR WHOSE LIFETIME JUST UNDER THAT THRILL. WHAT YOU THINK UP IS NOTHING NEW, BECAUSE IT WAS ALWAYS THERE IN NATURE. IF YOU JUST HAD EYES TO SEE, EVERY DAMN THING THAT YOU DISCOVER HAS ALREADY BEEN THERE. WHATEVER GREAT DISCOVERY YOU HAVE MADE, THE VERY EARTH THAT YOU WALK UPON KNOWS IT. IN AMERICA THEY CALL IT DIRT, DIRT KNOWS BETTER THAN YOUR BRAINS. EVERYTHING THAT YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING THAT YOU RE-INVENT, PLANET ALREADY KNOWS.

                       DEVOTION AS AN ULTIMATE VEHICLE WILL NOT WORK IN YOUR PRESENT STATE  OF MIND. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR YOU. YOU ARE TOO COMMITTED TO YOUR BODY AND YOUR INTELLECT. YOU CANNOT DROP THEM ALL OF A SUDDEN AND BECOME A DEVOTEE. DEVOTION AS AN ACT IS VULGAR.

                     DEVOTION AS A WAY OF LIFE IS WONDERFUL. IF YOU GO THE WAY OF DEVOTION, YOU HAVE TO SEE WHETHER IT IS SOMETHING THAT WORKS FOR YOU. IT DOES NOT WORK BECAUSE YOU ARE A TALKING PERSON. THINKING PEOPLE CANNOT BE DEVOUT.

                    INSTEAD OF THAT, IT IS BETTER YOU DEVELOP A LITTLE REVERENCE FOR LIFE AROUND YOU. WHEN YOU HAVE THIS MIND, DON'T TALK DEVOTION. IF YOU COME TO SUCH A POINT THAT THE EXPERIENCE OF LIFE, OR SOMEONE'S PRESENCE HAS OVERWHELMED YOU SO MUCH THAT YOUR MIND HAS JUST SUNK INTO THE BACKGROUND, THAT WHAT YOU THINK AND WHAT YOU FEEL IS MORE IMPORTANT, THAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS BECOME MUCH MORE IMPORTANT FOR YOU - THEN DEVOTION IS A POSSIBILITY.

THE POWER OF STILL

 

                               A LADDER TO THE DIVINE

                       BE AWARE OF YOUR THOUGHTS !

                    WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE AWARE?

          

                        IF YOU WANT TO KNOW LIFE IN ITS IMMENSITY,

                                YOU NEED SOMETHING MORE THAN YOUR THOUGHTS,

                       YOUR LOGIC, OR YOUR INTELLECT".

                     "AWARENESS" IS A VERY VAGUE TERM. IT MEANS DIFFERENT THINGS TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE. WHEN WE SAY "AWARENESS" DO NOT MISTAKE THIS FOR MENTAL ALERTNESS. MENTAL ALERTNESS WILL HELP YOU SURVIVE BETTER. IF WILL HELP YOU CONDUCT YOUR SURVIVAL PROCESS IN A SLIGHTLY SUPERIOR FASHION. AWARENESS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU DO. AWARENESS IS ALIVENESS. YOUR ALIVENESS IS ONLY BECAUSE OF YOUR AWARENESS. IF YOU WERE COMPLETELY UNAWARE, WOULD YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE ALIVE? YOU ARE ALIVE ONLY TO THE EXTENT YOU ARE AWARE. AND TO WHAT EXTEN YOU ARE AWARE, ONLY TO THAT EXTENT SOMETHING IS IN YOUR EXPERIENCE.

                 HOW DO I PRACTICE AWARENESS? YOU CANNOT PRACTICE IT. HOW CAN YOU PRACTICE LIFE? IF YOU WERE DEAD YOU COULD PRACTICE LIFE. IF YOU ARE ALIVE, HOW CAN YOU PRACTICE LIFE? IT IS JUST THAT RIGHT NOW, YOU ARE NOT GIVING MUCH ROOM FOR YOUR ALIVENESS TO HAPPEN BECAUSE YOU HAVE GIVEN TOO MUCH SIGNIFICANCE TO WHAT YOU THINK AND FEEL. YOUR PSYCHOLOGICAL PROCESS HAS BECOME FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAT YOUR LIFE PROCESS. WHY AWARENESS SEEMS TO BE SO DIFFICULT IS SIMPLY BECAUSE WE HAVE LET OUR MINDS GO INTO ENDLESS CHATTER. IF YOUR MIND IS NOT CHATTERING, AWARENSS IS THE NATURAL WAY TO BE.

                   ONCE IN A WHILE, IF I JUST CLOSE MY DOORS AND SIT IN A PLACE FOR FIVE DAYS , I DO NOT HAVE SINGLE THOUGHT FOR FIVE DAYS. I DON'T LOOK OUT OF THE WINDOW, I DON'T READ, I DON'T DO ANYTHING. I AM SIMPLY BEING ALIVE. THIS IS SUCH A HUGE PHENOMENON HAPPENING WITHIN YOU, WHAT IS THERE TO THINK ABOUT? HEING ALIVE IS A FAR BIGGER PROCESS THAN YOUR STUPID THOUGHT PROCESS.

                    ANYWAY, WHAT CAN YOU THINK? YOU ARE JUST RECYCLING THE NONSENSE THAT YOU HAVE GATHERED. CAN YOU THINK SOMETHING OTHER THAN THE NONESENSE THAT HAS BEEN FED INTO YOUR HEAD? YOU ARE JUST RECYCLING THE OLD DATA YOU HAVE GATHERED. THIS RECYCLING NONSENSE HAS BECOME SO IMPORTANT THAT YOU CAN EVEN DARE TO SAY, " I THINK, THEREFORE I AM". AND THAT BECOMES THE WORLDS WAY OF LIFE. EXISTENCE IS, EVEN WITHOUT YOUR SILLY THOUGHTS.

                      IF YOU CHOOSE, YOU CAN FULLY BE AND STILL NOT THINK. PLEASE SEE, THE MORE BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS IN YOUR LIFE ARE THOSE MOMENTS WHEN YOU WERE NOT THINKING ABOUT ANYTHING. WHAT YOU CALL MOMENTS OF BLISS, MOMENTS OF JOY, MOMENTS OF ECSTASY, MOMENTS OF UTTER PEACE, THESE WERE MOMENTS WHEN YOU WERE NOT THINKING ABOUT ANYTHING BUT WERE JUST LIVING.

                    WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT, LIVING OR THINKING? YOU MUST DECIDE THIS - DO YOU WANT TO BE LIVING BEING OR A THINKING BEING? RIGHT NOW, NINETY PERCENT OF THE TIME, YOU ARE ONLY THINKING ABOUT LIFE, NOT LIVING LIFE. AS YOU HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE OR TO THINK ABOUT LIFE? YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE LIFE, AND YOU CANNOT EXPERIENCE LIFE IF YOU ARE LOST IN YOUR THOUGHT. IT IS ONLY THROUGH PERCEPTION THAT YOU EXPERIENCE. YOU CANNOT EXPERIENCE THROUGH THOUGHT. WITH THE PAST EXPERIENCE OF LIFE, YOU ARE COOKING UP SOMETHING IN YOUR HEAD - THAT IS A THOUGHT PROCESS. WHATEVER YOU THINK HAS NO SIGNIFICANCE BECAUSE YOUR THOUGHTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH REALITY. THEY DO NOT MEAN ANYTHING. EVERYONE CAN THINK UP THEIR OWN NONSENSE WHICHEVER WAY THEY WANT. IF NEED NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH REALITY AT ALL.

                    YOUR PSYCHOLOGIC PROCESS IS A VERY SMALL HAPPENING COMPARED TO THE LIFE PROCESS. ISN'T BEING ALIVE RIGHT NOW MORE IMPORTANT FOR YOU THAN THINKING? BUT IF I TRAMPLE UPON YOUR THOUGHT EVEN A LITTLE, YOU ARE EVEN WILLING TO DIE FOR IT. PEOPLE DIE FOR THEIR IDEAS. PEOPLE DIE FOR THEIR THOUGHT. PEOPLE DIE FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVE IN. THOUGHT HAS BECOME FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE LIFE PROCESS BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE NOT REALIZED THE IMMENSITY OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE ALIVE. BECAUSE LIFE HAS BEEN RESTRAINED WITHIN THE SURVIVAL ACTIVITY, THOUGHT LOOKS GRANDER THAN LIFE. BUT IT IS NOT SO. THOUGHT IS JUST A SMALL HAPPENING COMPARED TO THE LIFE PROCESS.
