People who really make it big never ask anything for they were practitioners of silence within! All my life I indulged in autobiographies… real first-hand accounts of successful people in all walks of life. Even though Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohammed, Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana are no more live yet in their teachings I could learn […]
This is not a quote from any book but an absolute fact of cosmic life! Lord Shiva in Hindu mythology represents an enlightened one. The coiled serpent denotes full awakening of kundalini shakti, the coiled Serpentine energy lying dormant in base of spine. Every given moment human beings indulged both in positive and negative thoughts. This churning of thoughts […]
People pray to God and also visit temples to make a donation. Are we trying to bribe God? Most indulged in this sort of charity, filling coffers of temples with illegal wealth (none donated from hard earned money except poor) with a hope of receiving grace from God. Even though all realized that God could not be bribed yet most […]
Whenever someone dies on mother earth particularly in India people say one would go to heaven or Vaikuntha! Even if a hard-core terrorist dies, the practice was the same! None wants to admit openly that due to deeds, karma of present life… one would directly go to hell! By: Vijay Kumar “Atma Jnani”… The Man who Realized God in […]
Gautama Buddha was not the creator of Buddhism! He only framed guidelines for human beings to emancipate forever from sufferings, world of dukhma (miseries)! After Gautama Buddha left his mortal frame, his followers called the teachings of Gautama Buddha as Buddhist teachings and the following as Buddhism religion. Gautama Buddha gained enlightenment in his lifetime and if followers of […]
If possible I would erase rather subdue ego of entire mankind from mother earth! It is presence of ego (Aham in Hinduism) that blocks human beings traveling path of pure spirituality. If our ego voluntarily subdues to zero, chances of our gaining enlightenment in present life were very bright. Ego is like a patch of black cloud blocking streak of […]
One always indulges in bhakti to reach God but in present times following bhakti yoga none could reach God. Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana both started in pursuit of God via path of bhakti yoga. Finding God could not be reached via path of bhakti yoga alone both finally switched to path of jnana yoga and nishkama karma yoga! […]
Precepts of spirituality, indulgence in yoga meditation were not that easy! Yoga primarily is effort of soul atman wanting to yoke (merge) with Parmatman (God Almighty), Brahman at the earliest! For indulgence in yoga various sages and Rishis in yester era indulged in a set of asanas (yogic exercises) to keep fit and fine physically. Mental fitness is achieved through […]
If the faculty of thinking in human beings did not exist, we would never indulge in any action! Every single thought when mobilized precipitates into action. Before we act, the related thought occurs in our brain, thinking process! Fate does not relate to thought process but karma. As ordained by God the closing balance of previous life becomes opening […]
The jnana wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita purely relates to field of spirituality, having nothing to do with religious practices (path of rituals). It is following the teachings contained in Bhagavad Gita human beings finally reached stage of enlightenment, moksha salvation! Stated inversely, none in this world could gain enlightenment in absence of teachings of Bhagavad Gita. Religions like […]
The biggest problem of human life was, not believing in self. I also passed this phase of life which rather continued for a very long time but finally I overcame it. My goal of life was spiritual for which I traveled path of truthfulness all the time. I was truthful to the core. None in this world could sway me […]
The fine thread that connects both enlightenment and insanity was like the center of a half filled glass. For a person with positive outlook the glass was half full, for a pessimist… half empty! Most travelers of spiritual path quit their calling when in last stages of life. This happened with Acharya Rajneesh (née Osho). What if we quit […]
It is inbuilt human nature propagated by ego within to indulge in desires and wishes galore. Prime reason why God Almighty ordained a long journey of 1.1 million manifestations in human form to reach stage of enlightenment! We had sufficient lifetimes to enjoy the best of material life before entering field of pure spirituality. Unless there was competition, desires […]
As a scripture Bhagavad Gita had nothing to do with building a nation. In times of extreme strife, tribulation comes an avatar (God manifest in human form) to re-establish dharma (righteousness) against evil forces of adharma (lawlessness). The principles of Bhagavad Gita cannot be understood by masses literally prime reason why coming of an enlightened one or an avatar was […]
The best way to live present life was living in the moment. Be born in the morning and die in the evening. In between the two lay the happiest moments of our life full of gaiety and laughter! Under no circumstances we must pass our lives. We must search for our passion and pursue it with all eggs in one […]
If we desire gaining enlightenment in present life, it is best if we indulged in teachings of Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita… summum bonum of spirituality! In my spiritual pursuit of God, I never cared for what Mahavira, Gautama Buddha did… I only took care that I did not repeat their mistakes. Life history of enlightened souls was always enlightening […]
Unless we understand the whole scenario things do not become clear. Siddhartha Gautama started in pursuit of hidden truths of life even while living in family. At a very young age he realized nothing could be gained living in family. One night touching feet of wife and child he left for deep dense forests to contemplate in isolation. No matter […]
When a human being was contented from within it was called happiness. External happiness was momentary but internal happiness was full of tranquility, serenity… a coolness that could never be expressed in words! Whenever human beings tread a path, a passion dear to their heart and when they gained success, reached end of journey… they felt extreme happiness! An […]
From all angles I consider myself very smart now! The reason was apparent! I started in search of god six years of age. Since 6 to 37 I never spoke an extra word with anyone. People called me introvert and whatnot! Some even ridiculed me to the extent of being dumb! I had taken an internal vow, until I reached […]
How could we indulge in contemplation in running music… this was just not possible! For a serious indulgence in contemplation inner calm was an absolute must. Meditation could only be indulged via path of contemplation; there was never a shortcut or any other method! Most people world over indulge in meditation the wrong way… prime reason, we do not see […]
We are presently passing through Kali Yuga, the metal age (Dark Age). So many meditation retreats, meditation camps in present times tried teaching meditation, something that could be learnt only from within. Existence of such retreats, camps proves they were only centres for earning bread-and-butter, nothing more! Something that could be reached only via path of contemplation, logical reasoning… how […]
Only 200 years before Indian culture had no precedence in the entire history of mankind. The foremost, wisest and naive of all civilizations… Indian culture showed the world how human beings could reach stage of enlightenment. It is only in recent times taking shelter of Kali Yuga Indian civilization has reached its lowest ebb. The largest democracy of the world […]
My conversation with Jesus Christ would be like – Born in a stable, having inquisitive nature you embarked on spiritual journey to gain enlightenment in your lifetime. In your missing years (14 to 29) you went to Nalanda University situated in India (erstwhile Bharatvarsha) to fathom depth of wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads (independent treatises) and Vedas (Hinduism […]
After reaching stage of enlightenment, if an enlightened one again indulged in daily routines of life… one would feel all the inconsistencies of mortal world. This happened with Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa, the spiritual master of Swami Vivekananda. When people asked him why he suffered… he plainly replied, only to assuage sufferings of those dear to him. If a block […]
The composition of a spirit was beyond comprehension of mankind! The maximum science was able to reach was God particle, nothing beyond! The size of a spirit was so minute that not now or in future ever mankind would be able to measure a spirit! As detailed in Bhagavad Gita we were primarily a spirit, consciousness… soul atman manifesting […]
Immortality belongs to our true inner self… our soul atman, consciousness… the spirit existing in our heart! Physically no human being could become immortal. Our body was designed to live for an average life of 100 years. When human beings gained enlightenment, the cycle of birth and death came to an end. This stage of absolute purity in the life […]
The stage of immortality can be reached via path of spirituality as detailed in Bhagavad Gita Hinduism, never teachings of Islamic Dharma detailed in Quran. As per Bhagavad Gita immortality belonged to our soul atman and never the manifest physical human form. No human being could ever gain immortality. Traveling path of spirituality when human beings gained enlightenment, the cosmic […]
In pursuit of God from six years of age I often came across word Samadhi in my own house. My grandfather was a monk; a Jain Muni (became a naked Digambar Muni in the later stages of life). He often indulged in Samadhi. When I asked him point-blank what it was… he did not render a satisfactory reply! I was […]
The evolution cycle is explicitly detailed in Upanishads (independent treatises). All human beings directly evolved from stage of animals. Ever since occurrence of big bang when all souls’ atmans scattered all over cosmos at unimaginable speeds… they waited a long time for life supporting planets like mother earth to evolve. It was only then souls’ atmans could manifest life on […]
As everything contained in Hinduism scriptures was allegorical to explain the hidden underlying precepts of cosmic life… the role of Yudhisthira (Dharmaraja) was for a specific purpose. As detailed in Bhagavad Gita Yudhisthira was embodiment of Dharma (righteousness) but can a human being reach stage of enlightenment practicing Dharma alone. It was just not possible. Apart from dharma our indulgence […]
