Moments so Far ...

You go to school and college. You get a job. You listen to Upanishads. What do you get? You know, your every act, your every thought is towards getting happiness. You earn so that you get a comfortable lifestyle. You take up a project on your own because it appeals to you and promises to give you happiness in end. You have progeny to get happiness. You become a householder to get happiness. Happiness is single most vital motivator behind every thing that you do on this planet. The master too says that at end of upanishad discourse the only thing you get is happiness of heaven. Your mind settles down in knowledge. The striving continues but feverishness stops. You self is getting wedded to infinite soul every moment. Your body is a miniature of entire universe. The finite body is becoming one with infinite universe. In India there is a tradition of doing the marriage of Radha and Krishna. You dont get caught up in that, you move on to higher planes. For one, there was n...

Every animal on this planet manifests a form of divine consciousness on this planet. Every extinction of animal loses that manifestations. That is what the  string theory  is also all about. They are the carriers of those energy. We, as humans, are carrier of knowledge. A few ShivRatries (a hindu festival worshipping Lord Shiva) ago, on solar eclipse day, an incident occurred in a village temple in Tamilnadu. A cobra was climbing a particular tree ( bael ) and plucking its leaves and moving towards the Shiva Linga in the temple premise. All got scared looking at the serpent there. But he repeated the process 4-5 times and some had sense to take photos and videos. He is associated with Lord Shiva and was washing his sins on Solar eclipse according to local priest there. Every part of our body is associated with a particular grain, a planet, a color, a flower, a god or goddess. Like Saturn with mouth , jaws. Jupiter with nose. Chick peas. M...

As humans you get 8 units of life. A stone has 1 unit of life. There are male and female in stones too. Ancient traditions and sculptors know it. Water has 2 unit of life. Air has 3 unit of life. Space has 4 unit of life. Trees have 6 unit of life. Animals have 7 units of life. Humans have 8 units of life. We are here and we need to move forward. Geniuses have 9 units of life. In both sense either for great political system or social change or people like Hitler. Your spirit has 9-10 units of life. In a while when you leave your body you become more powerful. You have more access and flexibility. The constraint of body is lost. Your ancestors have 11 units of life. In many traditions we pray to ancestors. They can give you boons according to their capability. They cannot give all the boons. Your pitr पितृ  have 12 units of life. Kinnars have 13 units of life. They bless or curse with wealth. You will have great wealth but you will not be happy with your prog...

You know yet you dont know. Know that and assimilate. If you cannot manage that knowledge in this lifetime even after hearing it then its a great loss to you, the greatest of losses. You will yet again gather bundles of miseries and carry on to next lifetimes. Like the man behind the projector sees only the light. The people in the cinema see only the movie. There is only one bulb that throws light on the film reel and all characters are projected into the big screen. The single consciousness flows through one and all, through the hero and the villain, through the heroin as well as the side-kicks. It does not discriminate. Its you who has the visceral experiences and get lost in the characters. The characters around you are the reflections of you. And if you extend that vision and project your identity on environment around and still wonder why there is so much negativity around you, why people shout at you, why do they spit and why do they turn away from you? Is it them or is ...

Self-effort, a holy person's grace and knowledge can take you to immortalilty Consciousness has four faculties. They are one but still for the sake of understanding we can divide. Experience - happenings in and around you, there is a complete movie that can be played even with   eyes closed Intellect - some aspects of brain Memory - you create some but nature has it all around you - mind Identity - your self - ego We have five sense objects Eyes Nose Tongue Ears Skin We have five senses See Smell Taste Hear Touch Everything in Nature is permutation - combination of  Fire Earth Water Air Space We experience the following 5 from nature Through Seeing/Light/Fire we experience/see day/night, color of flowers, trees, heavenly objects Through Smell/Earth/fragrant particles we experience fragrance of flowers, food  Through Saliva/Water we get the taste of food/fruits Through hearing/air we experience music/voice/noise Through t...

Make your anger very expensive, very precious. Nobody should be allow to buy it at any cost. Make your smile cheap. Just let it flow without being asked for. It is the only expression which is closest to your core nature. अपना गुस्सा बहुत मेहेंगा कर दो. दुनिया मैं कोई उसे नहीं खरीद पाए. वहीँ अपनी मुस्कान इतनी सस्ती कर दो की वोह यूँही प्रकट होती रहे.  ज़िन्दगी मैं तृप्त रहो. यही सबसे बड़ा गुण है.  हम भिखारी की तरेह सबसे कुछ न कुछ मांगते रहते हैं. जब कोई भिखारी हमारे सामने आता है तो हम क्या करते हैं. हम चुप चाप रास्ता बदल रहते हैं या फिर गाड़ी की खिड़की ऊपर कर लेते हैं, उसकी तरफ देखतें भी नहीं हैं. प्रकृति का भी व्योहार कुछ इस तरेह से ही होता है.  कहते हैं जो ध्यानस्त होते हैं, वेद और ज्ञान उनकी तरफ ही अग्रसर होते हैं. जैसे पंडित मंदिर मैं दिन भर वेदों का उच्चारण करते हैं लेकिन फिर भी दुखी  दिखतें हैं, उनके चेहरे पर न तेज होता है न कोई चमक.   ज्ञान मांगने से या फिर दोहराने से नहीं मिलता है.  Knowledge comes to those who are in meditation. The c...

यह विचार आते कहाँ से हैं. शरीर से, वातावरण से, डर से, प्रेम से, इन्द्रियों से, व्यक्तियों  से, व्यक्तित्व   से, आत्मा से या  फिर परमात्मा  से. लेकिन जहाँ से भी आते हैं, यह बीज  की तरह  मन की धरातल पल पनपने के लिए क्यूं तत्पर होते हैं. कुछ  विचार ऐसे हावी हो जातें हैं जैसे उनका कोई अंत नहीं. कुछ कब आते हैं ओर कब चले जाते हैं, उनकी कोई खबर नहीं. कुछ विचार ऐसे कोड़े बरसते हैं की मन के साथ साथ शरीर भी छलनी छलनी हो जाता है. कुछ विचार बर्फ के गोले होतें हैं ओर शरीर को सुन्न कर देते हैं. कुछ विचार कल कल करते झरने की तरेह फुदकते रहतें हैं. कुछ ऐसे मिलतें हैं जैसे सदियों बाद पाठशाला के  मित्र मिलें हों. कुछ ऐसी चट्टान होतें हैं की छाती भारी कर जातें हैं. छाती  फिर  ऐसे विचारों की उत्पत्ति करती है की मन भारी हो जाता है. फिर एक  दूजे के बोझ  तले दब कर खुद की पहचान को नष्ट कर देते हैं. आत्मीयता को ध्वंश कर देते हैं. ...

एक समुद्र मंथन था और एक विचारों का मंथन है. उसका घटनास्थल विशाल समुद्र था, इसका घटनास्थल विशाल मन है. उसमें देवता, दानव और परमात्मा थे , इसमें अच्छे, बुरे विचारों के ऊपर विवेक और बुद्धि हैं. उधर चाह अमृत की थी, इधर मुक्ति की है. उधर देवता दानवों के बडती शक्ति से परेशान थे, इधर अच्छाई बुराई की कहर से परेशान है. जब विष निकला तो शिव आये, इधर भी कभी सत्य से संपर्क होगा. उधर भी देवता सुख, शांति और ख़ुशी चाहते थे, इधर भी वही इच्छायें हैं. उधर भी देवताओं को अपना आसन और स्वर्गलोक छोड़ कर घनघोर समुन्द्र मैं खड़े होके परिश्रम करना पड़ा, इधर भी हमें चिंतन , मनन, करना पड़ेगा, नहीं तो विवेक बेचारा कोने मैं सड़ता रहेगा, बुद्धि भ्रस्ट    तो हो ही गयी है , ओर विकारों से युक्त हो जाएगी, तुम भोगते रहोगे और योग की बातें सुनते रहोगे ओर मेरी तरेह सुनाते रहोगे . अपने जीवन मैं सबको मंथन करना पड़ता है, हर इंसान को, हर बार, हर जन्म मैं. यह तप आज से ही चालू हो जाए तो अच्छा  है, वर्ना ज़िन्दगी विष तक ही पहुँच कर चूक जाएगी. kya kehte हो!
