It’s a joke Seriously it’s a joke. They are just as bad as many religious leaders. This is my opinion. I don’t mean this in a disrespectful way – but how can anyone know if they have no experience

Why is Philosopher Daniel wrong ? He claims there is no such thing as consciousness it’s just an imagination created by the mind?

Philosopher Nagel states that consciousness is a projection of the mind and senses !

I cannot say what others say or think. They believe that they can reach consciousness by focusing attention on body or imagination or imagining God

Yoga states consciousness is something beyond the mind and senses and logic and can only be experienced

I laugh :). What can I say ? :) go within

*Ignorance makes fun of intelligence*

*Robert Goddard* is the *Father of space travel

In 1920 he published a paper of space travel and travel to the moon

*New York Times* humiliated him and mocked him.

Goddard passed away in 1945. First space travel occured in 1947

New York tines apologized for making fun of him in 1960’s

Long live journalism and the tendency to mock that which our intelligence cannot grasp

The same is true in spirituality. The highest of high can accomplish anything. Including creating an entire universe. There are many like that

However they remain hidden and can never be found till we reach that state

There is a mountain that needs to be climbed. It is called Giri There were millions of people trying to climb it. They all had a luggage of a 1000 kilograms / pounds with them. They went to a guide for information. The guide took money from them. A lot of money. And then showed them drawings of the top of the mountain. Told them, see I was there ! Now you can go there too Just close your eyes. And see that picture in your mind !

And all these people were incredibly happy. Self congratulated themselves

Interpretation

Climbing the mountain is learning the skill of meditation. The guide is a fake guru who has a fake drawing / imagination of what the top of the mountain is like. And shares it with everyone for money. And now he has millions of successful followers

The mountain Giri remains unclimbed!

There was one person who did not join the group. He instantly saw the stupidity. And refused to join the millions.

Part two to follow , maybe

So in Hinduism there is no death , maybe

The soul exists and will continue to dream the existence of a body. Once the body is no longer suitable it leaves it and dreams up a heaven or hell and then another body

This is perpetual and the conditions of the body can change. For example if the world becomes too hot , then the structure of body can change and the soul adapts to it

If there is a God or life after “death” surely it won’t be with a decayed body. The thing that survives, the soul will come up with an alternative. This alternative body – is not part of this dimension – hence it cannot be seen or known by the physical body

Well, with these basics we try to remain reassured. Those who have a firm conviction find their last minutes peaceful. Those who doubt panic. Either case the parting of the body is certain.

If this is the thinking of Hinduism, then why do the Hindus have Mahamrutyunjai mantra ?

Om Tryambakam Yajamahe
Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam
Urvarukamiva Bandhanan
Mrityor Mukshiya Maamritat

We Meditate on the Three-eyed reality
Which permeates and nourishes all like a fragrance.
May we be liberated from death for the sake of immortality,
Even as the cucumber is severed from bondage to the creeper.

Why use the word cucumber ? Why not tomato? Why use the word tryambakam?

You may somewhat understand it but until shiv is reality – the true significance is not known. In the haste and ego of “I know” almost everyone will lose their life by a slight understanding devoid of experience

They simply have not grasped the basis of meditation

It has become popular. People go to retreats. It increases depression in men

But meditation is NOT about focusing on body It is about realization of the divine !

Yes if you get good health for a short time, or become rich, or have an illusion of peace but you don’t have the divine what use is it ?

He is a famous Astro physicist with many incredible discoveries about black hole, Hawking radiation.

He had a disease ALS

He was an atheist and did not believe in God.

So what happens to those who don’t believe in God or Christ or Krishna or SwamiNarayan?

Does God punish them and send them to eternal hell ? Or burn them ? Beat them ?

What rubbish! The concept of God – is kind, compassionate forgiving loving Is he that insecure that just because you don’t think he exists your punished ? Or because you are not baptized or born again? Or did not believe ?

Truth is – he does not care. He is very secure in his existence with or without you. He is there the moment you turn to him.

But turning to him is not easy. It’s not the thoughts but you the soul has to turn

Sadly we talk about soul but not one in a billion has experienced it. It is not the ethereal ghost like body either

More to follow later. Perhaps

When Yukteshwar met Babaji at Kumbh Mela – Babaji addresses him and said Swamiji will you write a book on my behalf?

The words Babaji uttered were a blessing with all spiritual powers given to him at that instant!

When some people give blessings, ignorant people don’t understand the blessings and reject it

God gives such blessings through spiritual people but most of the time the blessings are not understood and rejected

So is it unfair? Not at all. It is a subtle test of respect toward the Guru. Most of the time it is absent

Yogananda said that many times. His Guru subtly hinted many things but most of the time the followers were unable to receive

That’s why in the Bible it is said ” to all those who received he gave them the power of being the sons if God” meaning it is not easy to receive when there is ego – ego of being great or ego of being nothing

If you can answer that question honestly – there are only two things you can want

1. Something in the world or for the world but still related to the world

2. Spiritual enlightenment in experience Call it God or atman or self Your choice

What about both ? Answer is – it won’t work out. Because for spiritual enlightenment you need decades of forsaking wanting anything in world

In ancient times It was called vairagya. That term is poorly understood

It is in reality a status in spirituality

A yogi wealth is opening of Sushumna

None of the books have written clearly what happens when Sushumna opens in the FIRST STEP.

Later steps describe chakra. Since it is graphical everyone can imagine it and believe , falsely, achievement

A yogi without opening of Sushumna is like a man without any money or wealth calling himself rich

Such foolishness abounds on the web. No one wants to be patient – for true achievement

We are incredibly naive with no understanding

We take for granted all we understand and think it is the final word

And this final word varies from religion to religion and person to person.

Everyone knows the word Purity

And foolishly what we understand as purity is generally wrong. Since purity can change from religion to religion !

Hindus say don’t kill

Islam days sacrifice goat or camels

Christianity says animal killing is ok

I have no conflict with anyone about it

All I ask is don’t foolishly believe everything that you or your leaders interpret. After all someone can be wrong

Why do people’s people go through life without any spiritual progress ?

Their own intelligence hurts them You could be Einstein or Stephen Hawkins – but at some point you get trapped with your thoughts

In spirituality also , you may read my blogs, agree with a few things and don’t agree with a few. The right way to read is – not saying I don’t agree – but say I don’t understand

You can only do that with a true yogi However the darkness in you, from reading wrong things on the internet will prevent you

I prefer to be left alone. Follow other blogs. When your time is ripe you will understand. Until then enjoy the world !

A rare soul realizes that there is little happiness in worldly activity. For a lot of effort and much struggle, we find happiness in this world

And eventually it is snatched away from us.

Is there an easier way to happiness in life ?

Of course there is. Such Yogi are rare. It is more likely to happen for those who are genuinely nice, those who wish happiness to others even when others are mean.

To be nice , with every cell of your body resonating with wishes of happiness for others is rare It takes an advanced yogi to become that way. Pavahari baba – described by Vivekananda was one. Ramkrishna was that way too.

I often wish that no one read by blogs. That way I can stop writing

Winds died, people cried,

I tried with all my might

To give what’s right

Oh, now a sad plight

Winds died, people cried.

I caught the wind, Settled within

A game of light, a game of sound

A master illusion, billions bound.

Quit the game, wake up child

I caught the wind, settled within

The first paragraph is about dying , the second is about immortality

Hiranyakashipu had a sister named holika. His son was Prahlada

Prahlada refused to give up praying to Vishnu. Hiranyakashipu got angry and ordered Prahlad death. Multiple attempts were made.

In one attempt he asks Prahlad to sit in a pile of sticks with holika. Holika was immune to fire provided she had a shawl. The end result was she look ok st her shawl and in the fire she does it Prahlad lives

Finally Prahlada is ordered to embrace a burning pole and from the poke Lord Narsinh appears and he kills Huranyakashipu

The story is a beautiful story if steps ok f Yoga. However, since this is public blog, I cannot give the true meaning

An easy to understand meaning is as follows

Hiranyakashipu is ego and it always wants to take credit for everything in life. His sister Holika is fake bhakti which is loyal to ego. Prahlada is true bhakti

Eventually in the trials of life fake bhakti dies but only true bhakti will live

99% of the people have fake bhakti. It is done for material gains or to impress others.

Writing blogs falls in category of fake bhakti. It is done to impress others. Going to bhajan, Kirtan, singing dancing is also often fake. Display of kiya yoga in public is a crime against the purity of Shakti. She is not to be displayed many people are guilty of it

People sing bhajan in nice voices. It may impress people but does not impress God. This shiv ratri I saw someone spend a fortune and do tandav dance -. Shiv gave up riches seeing wealth as something worthless. How can you impress shiv ?

The list of imposter bhakti – Love fir Hod us long

Can you love God while burning with tremendous worldly pain ? There was only one Prahlad !

There is an inherent foolishness in people. They believe that reading about God , maybe saying some mantra or a prayer or firmly believing in Advaita and you are there.

But such is not the case

The soul has to be first experienced. It is encased in three phases at all times. Wakefulness, sushupti and sukshma One has to go beyond it and then one can surrender and love God

Until then one remains enmeshed in 3 Gunas – of virtue, vice and indolence.

Once liberated from them – taste of love for God arises. One sees everything as a marvel. Slowly the imperfections of people – which we hate – are seen in better light. Forgiveness and repent

Why give up the Marvel of God for a world that is imperfect and treacherous ?

You need someone to walk you through each h step. Otherwise you can only understand my words based on the physical world. Not based on the secrets of God

Every sentence in Gita holds yoga treasures

People who follow different paths – Scientology for example – get stuck in their own maze created by their mind

Some may believe that truth lies in other planets or universes and desperately search for it. They go from books or “research” searching for clues and evidence. However , it is worthless they then get depressed and feel lonely since they don’t have anyone who shares their views

This does not mean that aliens or other species don’t exist. They do. But you may not get the same intelligence like us. They reach God , at times by a more direct simplicity. And some don’t ever get to God for a long time

Yogananda has written about other species. So has Trailoki baba

But information based on imagination and nit direct perception will leave you lost and sad

It was written by Shankaracharya

Shankaracharya followed Advaita. It is an experience

Then why would he write hymns of Shiv

For example

Mandaakinii[5] Salila Chandana[6] -Carcitaaya,

NandiIishvara-Pramatha-Naatha-Maheshvaraaya.[7]

MandaaraPusspa-BahuPusspa-SuPuujitaaya,

Tasmai “Ma”kaaraaya Namah Shivaaya…

He talks about mandaakini and flowers etc

And then he uses the word su-pujitaya

We can say pujitay meaning worship and su- pujitay meaning good worship ! So what is su-pujitaya?

The whole shloka is a description of experiences of samadhi – AFTER the body falls lifeless

Yukteshwar could make his body lifeless at will

That is meditation.

Stop pretending

Go towards purity and achieve the higher goals. I keep reminding myself

All aspects of yoga are true

Including siddhis

It is rare

Those who have it hide. Run away from public

Vishnutirthji Maharaj had the siddhis. And his Gurus

Yogananda, his Gurus had Siddhis

They did not transfer it to disciples to any significant degree

The siddhis like gyaneshwar and Kabir are even more rare

You may get moksha without siddhis. Even that is a big thing

Difficult to say – it would scare people

But those who have not meditated are generally very afraid.

Saints like St Paul and perfected the art of leaving body. Hence he said , I die daily

Same was true for St Francis

Everyone knows about Lahiri Mahashaya

Last century there were quite a few. Now there are none. But in time more will be like that

The commonest feeling is fear and apprehension. Soon the inability to control body and then your directed by your karma to various places.

There are more details described in shiv purana etc

રચના તુષારની અધભૂત

આંખ ભીંજી તુષારથી

થયી મોટી સ્મિત

કરામત કુદરતની

કર્યો તેને નિર્દેશ

તું સાર માં સમાજ

તુષારની રમત

The word Tushar means morning dew

Philosophical meaning –

In India there is no rain in winter. So the moisture in the air condenses and gives water to the plant

During the dry times in our life – the invisible spiritual blessings condense to feed us by the act of remaining “cool” or “calm” Calmness is the act of meditation where the mind is less active

We are surrounded by spiritual blessings of great people and their positive vibrations left over while they still had a body helps us get rid of difficulties in life

This is why pilgrimage was suggested. Or Satsang – sitting at the feet of these great yogi helps immensely. However such Yogi prefer to remain aloof, away from people

There are other great Yogi who remain active but no one can understand them recognize them. Yoga is not meant for public display.

English Translation

Forget religion. Forget books. What do you need?

It is like the matrix movie

You are the divine. You gave forgotten it. A book can tell you that but does it wake you up ? You can follow what you want or who you want or pinch yourself.

You still will not wake up and know your the divine

But my guru is Yogananda, or I believe in shankaracharya or Krishna – still all you did not wake up – all you did was get egotistic – but your still in spiritual slumber

But I follow their teachings and method to wake up ! GOOD LUCK is all I can say.

You still don’t know your divine aspect

Isn’t it simple ? Find an awakened Guru He will have all the answers and if your lucky can wake you up. Yet a true Guru is very rare

And yet the world will continue its ignorant slow, almost stagnant process of trying to wake up

What a mystery

It’s difficult

What some people think is love for God is nothing more than fear – if I don’t do this bad things will befall or it is gratefulness- oh thank you that you did these things for me

But that is a business deal. Not love. To know love for God you need someone to teach you.

Read your books. Or follow your faith. But it won’t lead you to love for God

I write – very few read and those who read don’t get it

I don’t like reading great quotes. They are not so great ! They describe the goal people think it is the method Like I said previously in my other blog – the cart before the horse

Jesus gave up food and water for a long time 40 days !

Some people give up a small item in life for that time frame !

All sacrifices are good – but those who give up all and do it the right way are absorbed in God

Few can do it the right way !

First – you have to learn the right way

Then understand it

Then practice it

It’s a long way !

What is the right way ? – to have pangs of love for God , so much that nothing in the world matters !

Of course there are many other subtleties in between

Any takers ?

Today is the beginning of Lent

The word lent comes Latin meaning spring or even more ancient to grow longer

It is the beginning of spring and the days go longer

Christians practice lent by fasting in one way or the other. Later the practice became giving up a few items , generally food for 40 days

The real number was perhaps 36 days and it is done till Easter

The number 36 or the word Easter is not random. They have a yogic significance. Jesus also had fasted for 40 days in his life

In a public blog many things are not revealed

For example in yoga sutras it is mentioned sayama prapti is the first step in yoga. It refers to doing dharna, dhayana and samadhi all 3 at the same time !!!

How is it possible to understand it ?

Anyone who talks about atma or shiv or God – they talk about it based on theory

And for someone with real experience they immediately spot the lie

As such this blog is not advertised and displayed sloppily

The book I wrote is even sloppier

I have no need or use for readers. Neither am I burdened with thought of helping others or converting others or guiding others All those things would take me away from the divine

If you think you know, this is not the blog for you. I would encourage you to go elsewhere, preach, guide and make money.

On the other hand if you know a little or nothing, your earnest desire is to be with God, your looking for clarity in the religion, religious books or even clarity in being an atheist, then these blogs can help give you some clarity

Everything written here is accurate. However, even all laws of physics fall apart at quantum level. All that I wrote will be seen with a varying degree of clarity as you progress.

So the only way to read it , is to have a clear mind, read again, and every time you read there will be a more precise understanding. The word is final but your understanding is not final. That has to grow with contact of a guru

It is the super highway to God

Contrary to what the internet and almost books say – it is very superficially in the body with most of its inner divine aspect lying within They are called chores, vajra and then brahma Nadi

Yogananda has described the location and function of those sheaths appropriately in God talks with Arjuna

This is the place to go for prayers. This is the tunnel which people describe in near death experience.

Without this sushumna opening – one cannot meet God

Why delay ? Go within

Of course you can find thousands of fakes who have read about it and talk about it – but they expose their ignorance and reveal their real intention – money and fame

You need a Guru to open this royal path !

It is very important to have patience while “repenting”. Hurting yourself or begging forgiveness is not repenting.

To do those things is an act of transgressions- since you were made in the image of God

Some of the key elements in repenting include

Patience

Never to repeat the error again

Follow the guidance of a true Guru

Love for God

There are a few other elements in it but I must refer the reader to Gita, books by Yogananda, Yukteshwar and a wise Guru who can interpret the Bible

In Matthew there is a quote – And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not take the literal meaning. Instead ask a Guru what it means

In the Bible , the word repent has been used. Most people think repent means regret or feeling sorry or bad about things we did

Repent, then, and turn to God, so that he will forgive your sins. (Acts 3:19)

There are about 10 significant quotes in the Bible.

One of the quotes refer to confessing the sin. Thus the catholic tradition of confession started.

However no matter how much we “repent” we still have pain in our heart and in life

It seems our sins are not forgiven and we continue to endure pain

When we accept Christ and our sins are forgiven , why do we still suffer ? Doesn’t end of sin mean happiness ?

Is the Bible wrong? Are we repenting wrong? Is our understanding flawed ?

Yes, true some people have transient success but it is short lived. And then people give up or loose faith

This does not apply for everyone but it maybe true for many

Without going into too much detail – I can guide the reader to the Holy Science where Sri Yukteshwar writes the correct technique of repenting

It is similar to what is written in Uttar Gita

करारविन्देन पदारविन्दं

मुखारविन्दे विनिवेशयन्तम् ।

वटस्य पत्रस्य पुटे शयानं

बालं मुकुन्दं मनसा स्मारामि ॥१॥

Kara-Aravindena Pada-Aravindam

Mukha-Aravinde Vi-Niveshay-Antam |

Vattasya Patrasya Putte Shayaanam

Baalam Mukundam Manasaa Smaaraami ||1||

So why do they call Krishna as a child – his hands and feet are like lotus ?

Such a beautiful yoga description of God !

This is a photo of kamdhenu in Batu caves, Malaysia

This is a very yogic appearance of a very high yoga experience. Of course there is no cow but a perfect description

Shiv has no birthday

He is not Bhole. He is Bholenath – the protector of Bhole

Bhole – someone who is easily deceived

What about the story of Bhasmasur. – where he was deceived ? You misunderstood the story.

Shiv never has Avatar. He may send afraction of himself. The world cannot hear the full greatness of Shiv

It is sad and unfortunate for some religions to not pray to Shiv (example some sects of swaminarayana or Nanak ). The words of the great ones are very hard to follow

How can you understand the beauty of Shiv ? When you have not seen him or understood him ? Neel – blue neck, snake around him, surrounded by “ghosts” moon on forehead, ganga in hair and long braided hair ? Oh what a beautiful description – only a Yogi knows what I said !

The sign of an awakened Shakti is immediate love for Shiv ! If love for Shiv is not there – much cleaning of heart is needed Thus is the description of an awakened Shakti !

Sufi mostly wrote poems

With very deep meaning

Why do you stay in prison

When the door is so wide open?

Rumi,

The prison is our own thought. The thought that god exists or the thought he does not exist. The thought that someone is good or evil. The thought I am smart or the thought I am stupid Get out of the prison of your perception and thought

Once upon a time a very eager man sought refuge at the feet of a very divine Guru. The Guru was wise and all knowing

The disciple was very eager and not subdued. He asked the Guru , ” please oh great Guru, tell me how to reach nirvana”

The Guru paused. Looked the disciple and beyond the disciples body “I can tell you but you are not ready. You will not understand”

The disciple knew it won’t be easy. He persisted. By now the Guru was tired. He finally revealed the truth “Go and become a master of Sanskrit. All answers are there”

The disciple bowed and took permission from Guru and departed. He found the greatest scholar and started to learn the language Sanskrit! 20 years passed by and the disciple was a master at it

One fine morning the disciple woke up and realized he knows Sanskrit but has not reached Nirvana

Hastily he returned to the Guru and complained ! The Guru smiled and said ” your still a child ”

But Sir, I did exactly what you told me!

The Guru replied, “you did exactly what you thought I said! I told you to be a master of Sanskrit. And what did you do? You learnt the language ! I was not talking about the spoken language Sanskrit”

The disciple became dejected. He somewhat understood his flaw.

Part 2 to follow. Maybe

Most of the readers fall in this category. I write things and in general they believe they understood what I said but they miss their mark.

Certain things are very easily misunderstood. Master Sanskrit is not the same as learning the language or mastering it

The easiest way is to love God. And God more than anything in this world

Ain that situation the results are immediate. But it is not easy to love God. Something unseen. Unknown. And the mind constantly doubts am I doing the right thing?

Now there are some confused souls. They hear about God. Based on books. Or their guru. And they develop a concept. They believe that concept and fall in love with that concept. That is not love

Meditation is the art of silencing the mind. When the mind is silenced, then live for God arises. Till then Bhakti does not start.

Doing mantra, kirtan , going to temples, discussions, reading books DO NOT HELP. In those situations, the mind creates and image of God and then it worships that image. It is still a very good thing but it is one step short of actually talking with God directly.

Mantra given by a siddha is very helpful. Discussion with a siddha helps clarify the wrong beliefs. Reading books written by a siddha helps in a similar way.

However meditation is the most direct way. Those who cannot meditate and those who cannot silence their mind have to resort to other methods like above

Thus silencing the mind and meditation is a skill. For an adept yogi , it is as simple as turning off the switch. All he does is close his eyes, his inner purity and the gift of his Guru gives him a direct perception of God and his mind is silenced. That’s all !

A guru loves it when he can find a disciple of that caliber. Such a disciple is very rare. One in a billion or less.

Books will tell you to silence mind and absorb in God but they won’t show you the method. For this you must spend time with a Guru, repeatedly use his help to silence it – and this will take years and years of learning the finer millions of subtle steps – till it becomes a simple technique

Most people will live a meaningless life – only seeking enjoyment in this world. Of course it is not meaningless but from a spiritual standpoint – since no effort has been placed to find your own consciousness- it lost its purpose.

It is very important to spend some time -to figure out what consciousness is. The answer is NOT found in books or talking but is found in deep meditation only. Once this central core is reached – many answers are automatically revealed and discussion with other ceases. For what avail is discussion.

The consciousness exists in all dimensions – 11 of them. It is always fully aware of it in all dimensions. How can an enlightened person explain consciousness or the experience in other dimensions. It is to be experienced ! Even if I tried to explain it – you will only imagine it but not reach it

Hence Guru are silent ! Who can they tell what it is ?

The chapters in Gita are arranged in three groups

1) 1-5 describe Kriya Yoga. Every sentence , in my opinion , describe kriya

2) 6-13 Describe what should happen when kriya is perfected This includes vishva Darshan

3) the remaining 5 chapters talk about the forces that prevent you from perfection. Here he talks about three gunas. But Lord Krishna omitted certain levels above three Gunas

Moreover there are certain chapters in Gita that have been lost but available to a few select Guru / Yogis

Of course this is my belief. I prefer no one believe me or follow me. There are many other Guru more suitable for you

It reminds me – swami Gangadhar tirrhji had only one disciple. Ramkrishna had only a few disciples – I believe some people used inner circle for it

A worthy disciple is very rare. Even yogendra Vigyani – the guru of Vishnu tirthji maharaja said – who knows if there ever will be a disciple worthy of higher diksha in Kaliyuga

Yoga describes chakras

Yet inspite of all the CT, PET or MRI scan we are yet to see the chakras

Was or is Yoga a lie ?

It is the utter foolishness of ALL the web pages, that ignorance makes an average person believe they exist in the gross body !

Chakras are accurate but you have to be extremely advanced to experience it. Advanced to such a degree that the forces of Maya / delusion are weak !

Yogananda said in god talks with Arjuna – it takes years of practice in the presence of a Guru to experience it

Although he described it in detail – like all other perfected individuals- it is my belief he left critical information out of it. He even stated – due to certain spiritual injunctions he is not able to say more

Even if your lucky to meet a guru , he probably won’t explain much – it will takes years of practice before they can show more.

They show it – not explain it !

I constantly yearn for such a Guru to come again !

Such teachers don’t talk much about mundane things. Their goal is to wake up disciple from the dream of life. After all you are the divine. Why do you constantly want to dream ?

First you should have a firm experience about religion

Going off based on things you have read will not convince them. You can preach all you like about re birth or karma from past birth and tell all the stories , you will not be able to convince a smart modern day teenager. They are skeptical. Ask for more proof

Unless you have lived a spiritual life you will not be able to convince them because what you teach is different than your actions

This is very true especially for Hollywood or Bollywood parents.

In the final run , everyone is born with past tendencies and that will shape your beliefs. Some will believe in meditation others in mantra and others in “knowledge without experience”. just mental masturbation. Which produces nothing

In the vicinity of a divine Guru even the most atheist can be converted by his will. Such Guru are very rare

Why did the great saints of the past spend all day in meditation?

What is it that they experienced that even a second out of meditation was not acceptable to them?

What is wrong with your meditation that you have to force yourself to meditate, pray etc? What is missing?

What is Samadhi?

Vivekananda and Yogananda praised meditation as the highest! Vivekananda said Samadhi is greatest wealth!

Why do we live like ordinary people and not make deep effort for it?

The doors are closed. It has to be opened by a capable Guru. Don’t get satisfied by imaginary shakti awakening. Believe my words as true

Om

If you look up online – you will find millions of ideas, support groups, books, religious leaders and gurus – they all have a solution to your problems

Why does it not work? Perhaps we don’t implement it? Perhaps it was destiny or karma? Or bad luck?

Truth is there us one thing missing. The blessings of God or even better blessings of a divine Guru

So if I go to a guru and my problems are solved is that a divine Guru? Of course not! But this is the tragedy that create cults and massive followers – such coincidental things. The fake Gurus know this and capitalize on this, fake propaganda and entertaining people by logic, using fear tactics ( if you don’t do this something bad will happen ) and false promises of grandeur in the after life

Please stay away from them. Also stay away from my blogs. A Guru does not want disciples or followers. He is just there

Vivekananda in 1890’s talked about India freedom and even referred to some great souls like Subhash Chandra Bose

While traveling through Saurashtra, Vivekananda was upset at seeing the demolished Indian temples. He thought he would have defended the temples at all costs Kali immediately appeared before him and asked do You protect me or I protect you ? :)

The divine roots of India can never be conquered. It was a little play – of republic and Independence

The divine vibrations left by Shankar by materializing at Jyotirling, a land where Ramkrishna was/is, the great saints like Kabir Mirabai were there – are still alive. In its full effulgence

We err by going to the temples and seeing the mud, poverty and let disgust fill our mind. Be like Arjun – go there with heart full of love and desire to see the divine and not even noticing anything else !

One thing is certain – you will never cease to exist. Consciousness will always be !

The body or multiple bodies may die – yet the spark of the divine – what people call soul will ever exist

A yogi tries to merge the soul in God

It is only after that God becomes a true reality. Till then – it is like a possibility with glimpses of certitude

So if by chance your reading this blog, do the following – never never give up the search for the divine That constant effort will continue from birth to birth till your journey is over – till your merged in Divine

If you give up the search , think it is just a folk lore , who knows where your path will lead you to ? In one birth you may be Indian, then from Europe or Africa or China – your faith will change from birth to birth Where will you be? Why not work very hard so this beautiful path of Yoga continues with you ?

Don’t hate anyone or any religion. They all try their best. Sadly some people journey is wayward- seeking the world instead of God

Let them be.

If your fortunate to read these words, wake up my child ! Wake up ! Stop searching pleasure in the world but find the pleasure in the path to God. If you can’t succeed on your own, find someone to help you.

A Guru is a must. He helps in many ways more than you can imagine.

The difference in level of spiritual consciousness between an enlightened being and a normal being is a million times greater than the difference in consciousness of a human and a stone ( this difference in consciousness is minuscule according to Mother )

I merely repeated what they said. Again this difference is based on awareness of consciousness and NOT knowledge or information.

Most readers are constantly seeking to read and understand but not one person wants to give up reading and receive the power of that supreme consciousness by the grace of the Guru. This grace gives all the understanding of all spirituality, vedas upanishads etc

Such a guru is rare. Yogananda said even if such a guru is found if he gave that grace the disciple would not be able to endure it and would die

Who knows if any of this is true. It might be just a blind belief

So go and find another blog to entertain yourself

Meditation is directed towards getting rid of the discursive behavior of the mind and then the mind itself

Since any attempt to control the mind is an immense challenge to begin with , it is easy to understand alcohol is a no no.

The harder thing to understand is the role of non vegetarian food and meditation. The effects of non veg to the mind is not immediate but takes years to manifest. Hence it is likely to be not understood. Vivekananda gave a comparison between an elephant ( standing majestically) who is vegetarian and a restless prowling lion that only lives on meat.

The truth is far more difficult to grasp and even more difficult to experience. From fear of transgressing spiritual laws I cannot state certain things, but certain diets are known to bring stuporous states – which a hasty ignorant person can equate to the nothingness of Brahma. Of course this stuporous state is far from the fullness of Brahma

Some may argue that this diet restrictions is related to living and non living. However, we know that there is life in plants too

The final most difficult thing to understand is the question of eggs. Eggs can be Unfertilized. Yet they are prohibited for meditation

The guru who is capable of giving you the highest would like to see the seeds of the highest grow in the disciple. This seed of sohum WILL NOT grow if the disciple will not adhere to the diet for decades.

The disciple may lie but the discerning divine guru automatically knows the right thing. The divine Goddess will refuse to grow or let the Guru give awakening in these situations

Some people argue that Jesus ate meat etc on occasion. Jesus forgave the people who crucified him even though he was in excruciating pain. Can you do that ?

True yoga practice is rare

When a yogi tells his experiences, we just can’t believe it because no matter what we don’t experience it!

Hence we think there is another logical explanation or just a story or the person fibbed

The truth is we did not work hard enough, we did not try emotional purity and did not have love for God or the desire to be liberated. We just wanted to enjoy the world

Lahiri Mahashaya had an ageless divine guru Babaji

Inspite of getting the highest initiation he struggled for 10 years to reach perfection. In his diary he talks about how often sexual desire and other faults would creep up and he had to fight it. During those times he meditated hours together several times a day

Reaching perfection is hard work. After the shakti is awakened

Present day Guru take you on the road of logic, laziness and give you false hopes. They give you imaginary meditation without any experiences. They say chant the name of God or have you say sohum “I am God” and increase your ego and tell you you have reached pure consciousness nothingness when all you did is become inert like a stone – abhav yoga

In Manu smruti – it is said that a being fake guru is a big sin. Who is a fake guru? A Guru who has not had shakti awakened as per Lahiri Mahashaya. Yogananda had a stricter definition. What I have learnt is such fake Guru are punished severly if by chance there is a sincere true disciple and he gets stuck there. Fortunately such disciples are rare.

Most people who follow spiritually have weak desires of fame, money, looking for excuses to escape from work responsibility, hoping to meet women in organizations etc, or looking for intelligent debate.

No one wants to do the very hard, demanding work of silencing the mind, getting rid of desires, being insulted multiple times ( a strategy that helps…… ) etc

Reaching perfection is hard work the road is full of amazing experiences – far greater than any text written. That is just my opinion

That is why I urge anyone who reads by blog to go elsewhere. There are many other great guru out there who can help you with your desires for fame sex money and give you a lot of intellectual debate

What I write is meant for someone who loves God, and is tired of the evil selfish greed of the world

Lazy, ignorant people full of materialistic desires such as fame money sex food come up with very convenient lies for liberation or being with God

These lies include, just say gods name or mantra or I will sprinkle holy water or taking bath in Ganga or going to religious places and giving offerings or I believe in Krishna or Jesus or swaminarayan or my guru – these are all lies none of those things help. Some believe reading books and understanding it is freedom. Stupidity They maybe in some instances a stepping stone provided you have love for God and you are pure in your deeds and have NO MATERIALISTIC DESIRES

WITHOUT FULL LOVE FOR GOD NOTHING IS POSSIBLE

Of course I could be wrong but I prefer love for God, wanting to do good deeds etc very important also

The answer is simple

If you are tired of the world, you have no desire for things or fame or food or sex in the world, you don’t want to be a Guru or teacher, you want to be liberated and not even desire for pleasures of heaven, you love God more than anything, – then and only then are you ready to be a Yogi

It is only then a great Guru will come to you. Until then slowly patiently work on aspiring those qualities. Other wise even a great Guru in front of you will be of no avail

Good Luck
