From about 15 years of age I seriously indulged in shavasna pose of yoga while going to bed in the night. In this way, I could easily contemplate, introspect on God Almighty… indulge in Neti (not this, not this). My best part of yoga meditation was calling for a roundtable conference in subconscious state while lying in shavasna pose of […]
When young, about 8~9 years of age, something within told me to decide once and for all what I wanted to do in life. Since six years of age I was in search of God. If I were to continue on this path, I may lose my family. Rather, I may have to leave the confines of home go to […]
Whenever we had a glimpse into the domain of God Almighty, we experienced a state of total bliss, something that could never be summarized in words. Travelers of spiritual path often experienced such intermittent stages of bliss. When there was only God and you, one experienced periods of extreme ecstasy… total silence! This can only be experienced, never described. […]
Every single suffering results from bad karma indulged by us in present or past. To do away with sufferings, our indulgence in good karma, positive karma all the time was necessitated. Only then we could neutralize negative effects of residual balance of negative karma. Nothing in cosmos happened of its own. Karma was the governing inherent ingredient of cosmic […]
As detailed in scriptures of Hinduism, all lower forms of life had a soul atman within. Every single act of karma was accounted for. For killing a mosquito, we accumulate bad karma. It is possible that killing millions of mosquitoes was equivalent to killing a human being. All was relative. The doctrine of Bhava karma of Jainism clearly says if […]
The biggest misnomer on path of pure spirituality was… we had to learn something from sacred texts. Truth was not so. By indulging in sacred texts, by realizing the hidden inner meaning… we succeeded in removing dross impurities within our soul atman! Jnana wisdom was all about negating karma to zero, never increasing our knowledge. Prime reason why bookish knowledge […]
Following path of yoga meditation, I finally succeeded in reaching God in the wee hours of third of August 1993 at 37 years of age. It took many years before I could understand meaning of yoga meditation. Yoga is derived from root word yog which in Hindi stood for synthesis, the effort of soul atman trying to merge with Parmatman, […]
Maharishi Ramana was a great exponent of path of self enquiry (path of Neti… not this, not this). He also advocated practicing silence. In the early stages of spiritual pursuit I realized value of teachings of Maharishi Ramana. Lying in shavasna pose of yoga I always indulged in self enquiry (Neti) to the fullest extent. So much so that in […]
For indulgence in yoga meditation we need not leave confines of home. Remaining wherever we are we could progress spiritually, indulge in introspection, contemplation… logical reasoning, self enquiry! How noble a path devised by God Almighty, that human beings could indulge in yoga meditation wherever they be. Even in confines of a prison, one could easily indulge in yoga meditation. […]
Path of spirituality advises human beings to indulge in celibacy, to channelize sexual energy towards the end goal of life. For the purpose of progeny, a maximum of one or two indulgences per month were permitted. In the circumstances, homosexuality was totally ruled out, a complete taboo. By: Vijay Kumar “Atma Jnani”… The Man who Realized God in 1993 […]
We can only read about inner self, conceptualize it. Our inner self is our soul atman, the spirit within. Through the limited power of human intellect (buddhi), we could never visualize the world of souls’ atmans. Still, our true inner self residing in our heart was the only truth of life. As per doctrine of Maya (veil of illusion) […]
How could an ailing human being indulge in spirituality! For maintaining a perfect health, yogis of yester era devised a set of yogic exercises (which in present times people termed yoga) to keep the body fit and fine. Maintaining a robust health was a requisite for indulging in spirituality. I started in search of God six years of age. No […]
Did Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed ever have a friend? For these enlightened souls the whole world became one large family. When identity of self, I of ego is lost forever… how could we recognize one as our own? All family members including parents, brothers and sisters, friends and close relatives lost their identity. For […]
Temporal, impermanent glimpses into domain of God can be had by any, even those on drugs! But does scripture support consumption of drugs for the sake of pleasure? One is far away from spirituality when on drugs. God can only be reached via path of nishkama karma yoga… working for welfare of mankind at large all the time. […]
Advent of golden era! What happens when clock strikes 5 AM in the morning? It is time to get up, start a new day afresh. The end of Kali Yuga means mankind would witness in Mahabharata in making (a world war of gigantic proportions… the expected world war 3), a totally man-made calamity. It is during these times mankind witnessed […]
There is no point teaching anything relating to Ramayana in schools. Teachings of spirituality contained in Bhagavad Gita sufficed for humanity to reach stage of enlightenment and finally moksha salvation. One just could not gain enlightenment following teachings contained in Bible and Koran. Enlightenment can be gained following path of spirituality never religion. By: Vijay Kumar “Atma Jnani”… […]
Yoga is derived from root word yog which in Hindi means effort of a soul atman trying to merge with God Almighty, Parmatman (Brahman). As per scriptures of Hinduism it is believed our soul atman existed in our heart. By indulging in pranayama (breathing through the nose) we try reaching the source, soul atman itself. After all spirituality was […]
Science was ordained by God Almighty as a means to live a meaningful life, earn our bread and butter. The physical manifest self indulged with science all the time! Spirituality was meant for discovering true inner self existing in our heart. As we were primarily a soul atman, by traveling path of spirituality we finally reached stage of enlightenment. […]
Human brain works like a receiving and transmitting station. Emotions always relate to heart. Helped by buddhi (intellect) and supported by mind power, human beings carried out day-to-day routines of life. Whenever something touched our heart, emotions freely flowed! Invocation of all thoughts, positive or negative always happened through our brain. By: Vijay Kumar “Atma Jnani”… The Man who […]
1. Human beings possessed free will exercising which human beings reached stage of enlightenment. 2. We possess power of discrimination that helps us distinguish right from wrong. 3. We have wisdom of Bhagavad Gita available with us all the time following which human beings reached stage of Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed. 4. It […]
Yes, prime reason why guru Dronacharya suffered in the later stages of life when his son Ashwathama got killed by deceit. Guru Dronacharya finally paid for sin committed by him. Guru Dronacharya had no right to ask for guru Dakshina from one who was not his student. By: Vijay Kumar “Atma Jnani”… The Man who Realized God in […]
From childhood, stories from Bhagavad Gita and Upanishads are inculcated into our being. Even as a child we know that we were primarily a soul atman still; we were faraway from teachings of Bhagavad Gita or Upanishads. People in West particularly United States of America lived by Bhagavad Gita every single day of life. Even though they know nothing […]
From times immemorial existed “Dharma” … “Your right to do what is just and right and not what was destined”. Various sages and saints in erstwhile Bharatvarsha (now India) termed it Sanatana Dharma, something that existed from times immemorial. Eventually Sanatana Dharma came to be termed as Hinduism, a word coined by invaders from West who called people living East […]
No matter to what extent, present day science evolves, mankind would never be able to establish contact with other life forms in the cosmic system. So was not destined by God. We are getting further and further away from planets, stars, galaxies day by day. All that we see in movies and other forms of media would remain limited to […]
We need listening to our heart to gain absolute success in life. This goal can be achieved by traveling path of truthfulness all throughout. By remaining truthful we can hear the sweet small inner voice of our soul atman coming from within our heart. Prompted by voice of our soul atman that always guides us on right path… we could […]
The person on the other side of table can disturb us only if we let ones thoughts demolish our thinking. Why should the thinking of others be our concern? We are an independent human being. We must limit ourselves to our chain of thoughts. If we were persistent in our approach, negative karma of others could never affect our part […]
For building confidence we need to be truthful in all walks of life. When we were truthful, it was easier to exercise power of discrimination distinguishing right from wrong. The more our belief in right and truth, a better grip we had in day-to-day affairs of life building better power of concentration including confidence. By: Vijay Kumar “Atma Jnani”… […]
We as a soul atman came into being when God Almighty exploded self with a big bang. Moment life supporting planets like mother earth evolved, we as a soul atman started manifesting life on mother earth. After crossing 7.3 million manifestations in insect, plant and animal life we finally manifested human form. Human form is the highest manifest stage in […]
Around nine years of age while pursuing God, I decided once and for all whether I wanted to pursue God as the ultimate goal of life. If I took to path of spirituality, chances of losing my family were 100%. But something within told me I had only one life to live, the present earthly domain. If I wanted to […]
All failures were always temporary. By perceiving good in all, by believing in God… invoking positive thoughts most of time… we can easily convert failure to success, manifest destiny forever. There was something in our psyche that was negative. We need to change from negative to positive before we gained absolute success in life. Go to the nearest bookshop […]
