Essentials of Brahmacharya Vrata never lay in books. Through indulgence in contemplation, we realized the inner meaning of celibacy (practice of Brahmacharya Vrata). In simple words practice of Brahmacharya Vrata means channelizing sexual energy towards a goal of life. Napoleon Hill in his books “Think and Grow Rich” and “Law of Success” has adequately dealt with subject of transmutation […]
When child, one displayed all characteristics of God personified in miniature form! Devoid of ego (Aham in Hinduism), mounted with 100% truth the child displayed symptoms of almost 100% purity within. With ageing the ego gains prominence! Mesmerized by glare of worldly riches the child develops symptoms of impurity within. This impurity within keeps increasing until one develops a bloated […]
Hinduism (aptly called Sanatana Dharma) primarily is monotheistic as detailed in Bhagavad Gita, the sermon given to mankind (Arjuna) by Lord Krishna in battle of Mahabharata. As per Lord Krishna, God was one and only one… called Brahman in Hinduism. As commoners, masses… even seekers unable to conceptualize entity of Brahman created hordes of gods and goddesses to indulge […]
In erstwhile Bharatvarsha (now India) not hundreds but thousands gained enlightenment in the entire history of mankind! The history of enlightenment starts from times of Vedas (Hinduism revelations) when renowned, accomplished… enlightened Sages and Rishis invoked direct messages from God Almighty. Vedas are first words of God invoked by mankind. Subsequently evolved Upanishads (independent treatises)! All principal Upanishads were […]
When young six years of age I never thought of life that way! Something within told me that pursuing path of spirituality I could reach God. My determination to find God in this very life slowly firmed up. Elders in the family told me that reaching God was the ultimate goal of life of all human beings on mother earth. […]
That was not how Hinduism looks at spirituality. As per laws of karma… every single human being on mother earth has to absolve self from bondages of karma. None other can interfere in our karma. Karma has to be burnt in totality from within. In Hinduism we do not indulge in scriptures literally, prime reason why not in hundreds […]
The only way to help entire mankind was traveling path of spirituality to gain enlightenment in present life time. True help can be rendered only when we were spiritual, never religious!

Mankind was destined to pass through 1.1 million manifestations in human form… only then one reaches stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally moksha salvation. Presently we do not know at what karmic index between 7,300,001 and 8,400,000 we stood. We as a soul atman manifest human form for the first time after passing 7.3 million manifestations in insect, plant […]
Reincarnation, rebirth… transmigration was an absolute fact of cosmic life. Dreams were a medium for our soul atman to tell the physical manifest human being its goal of life. It is the alarm bell that keeps reminding us of its cosmic goal of life. The cosmic goal of life for a soul atman was gaining emancipation from cycle of birth […]
Simply wishing we never gained anything in life. When we believed in one, we hoped that our desire, wish would be fulfilled. Living in hope was meaningless. Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita says indulging in karma was the utmost priority of human life. Depending on desires, wishes… hope alone we could never live a meaningful life. Indulging in requisite karma […]
Did Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa ever call Swami Vivekananda to his abode… not even once! Swami Vivekananda of his own found out about Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and reached him, his revered spiritual master! My path was slightly different from Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa. From six years of age I indulged in path of jnana yoga, never in bhakti (path of total […]
When we pursued a goal in life that came from within, we felt happiness most of time. It is pursuing passion human beings all the time not only experienced happiness but also manifest success and destiny. We must be true to our inner self. As we were primarily a spiritual being manifesting human form, we just could not indulge in […]
On path of pure spirituality 100% faith in God, 100% truthfulness was necessitated. Unless we had absolute faith in God (termed shraddha in Hinduism)… we could never venture into domain of God Almighty. To hear the sweet small inner voice of soul atman coming from within our heart, practicing 100% truthfulness was necessitated. In absence of one we could never […]
Karma entails everything… every action (Karya) and also thoughts! Every single thought precipitates into an act of karma. If we murdered someone in our thoughts, then also we would be affected by indulgence in this bad karma. If a physical murder attracts a negative marking of -1 on karmic scale, it is quite possible that a murder in thoughts attracts […]
The sun still has about 5 billion years more to go before it converts into a red giant, extinguishing all life on mother earth as we see it today. Where the cause for any worry as human life was limited by 70 to 80 years of earthly life! Furthermore, the present journey of life belonged to our soul atman […]
Can souls’ atmans exist in absence of God Almighty (Brahman in Hinduism)? All souls’ atmans formed integral part of God Almighty. If an individual grain of sand is an independent soul atman, the whole mound God Almighty. We as a soul atman exist because God Almighty exists. We, the whole world came into being when God Almighty (Brahman) exploded self […]

The inner voice was the voice of our soul atman coming from within our heart. This voice of our soul atman always guides us on right path. As detailed in Bhagavad Gita, the present journey of life belonged to our soul atman and not the manifest physical human form. Our soul atman was the absolute master and controller of human […]
The consciousness existing in human heart could never be measured… it could only be felt, realized! The pumping of human heart directly relates to existence of soul atman in our heart. The moment death occurs, the released soul atman immediately manifests a new body to start new journey of life on mother earth. Only when matching parents were not […]

As per Hinduism scriptures we were primarily a spirit, a spiritual being manifesting human form! All relationships of earthly life come to naught moment human beings left mortal frame.

On path of pure spirituality in search of God I reached a dead-end. I could absolve self of all sins committed in present life knowingly or unknowingly but what of sins committed in previous lives? A portion of karma termed Prarabdha karma could fructify any given moment of life… in present manifestation or many manifestations afterwards. I had to […]
Scriptures of Hinduism say God (Brahman in Hinduism) existed in kingdom of God (Vaikuntha) and never kingdom of heaven (swarga in Hinduism). All souls’ atmans after liberation from cycle of birth and death gained entry into kingdom of God (Vaikuntha). As per Hinduism scriptures heaven (swarga) was a place for hibernation of souls’ atmans. After mortal death, the released […]
Mahavira was 24th Tirthankara of Jainism (preceptor) yet earlier 23 Tirthankaras remained in background. Jainism is primarily recognized from times of Mahavira by world community. The reason was apparent. The jnana wisdom of the initial 23 Tirthankaras remained confined to their individual self. Only in times of Mahavira the essential teachings of Jainism reached masses. Amongst all so-called incarnations […]
The jnana wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita, the sermon by Lord Krishna given to mankind (Arjuna) in the battle of Mahabharata came into existence about 3650 years before now.

Ever since Bhagavad Gita […]
Hinduism also called a way of life (and should be termed Sanatana Dharma) contained a vast paraphernalia of scriptures. The primary language of most scriptures was Sanskrit. Even though Mahavira, 24th Tirthankara of Jainism came afterwards… the language followed in Jainism scriptures was Prakrit and those of Buddhist… Pali! Lord Krishna was a cousin of Neminatha, 22nd Tirthankara […]
The query where do souls go has two answers. After death of human body the released soul atman immediately manifests a new form, a new body to start new journey of life. If matching parents were not available on mother earth, the soul atman hibernates in heaven or hell… in heaven if the residual balance of karma at the time […]
If a Nobel laureate visited students of class one how would one feel… isolated?

From six years of which I followed God Almighty but never indulged in any religion (path of rituals). I indulged in yoga meditation via path of contemplation, introspection… logical reasoning to reach God in my lifetime.
