Mithya

all manifest universe is mithya,

since what is seen /perceived/felt is only thru senses and mind ,

like onion is seen as just a round object,

a child cannot know what is inside it,

as he matures he finds there are many layers

 

, ...similarly

the manifest universe has layers, lokas, gross subtle subtlest and beyond

 ....but

the whole truth is ...apara+para,

...apara the momentary surface truth,

para the essence, the existence, eternal unchanging truth

.......hence one should not limit himself , nor confuse himself on what plane is his reference

..............laukyam erigi maatalaadavalenu

.....................the reference belongs to which plane??,

is it absolute, or devlok or bhoolok or adho lok

... the rules of the game are different in each stratum of existence

 

.....this is the full meaning of the word , ''laukyam'' that is , ‘’the frame of reference, the basis

  maharishi--''creativity is the cause of change present everywhere at all times. when active it generates newer and newer expressions enriching to life ''

and pursuit of spiritual path leads to activating the inner field of creativity to flow with all its splendor in practical life

  meditator is  a bhageeratha  

  bringing the divinty from heavens within and rendering the pure water, the  pure consciousness, to all water tabs, the channels of action and  perception, meditator is really a bhageeratha

Loka samastha Sukhino bhavantu.

Let good things occur to the king of the country,
Who looks after his people well, in the path of justice,
Let Cows* and Brahmins** have a pleasant life daily,
Let all people of the world have a very pleasant life.
*wealth was measured by cows in those times
** People in search of God

Kale varshathu parjanya,
Prauthwee sasya shalini,
Deso yam kshobha rahitha,
SAjjana santhu nirbhaya.

Let the monsoon be timely and plentiful,
Let earth be covered with vegetation,
Let the country live without problems,
And let good people never have fear.

Aputhra puthrina santhu,
Puthrina santhu pouthrina,
Adhana sadhana,
Santhu jeevanthu sarada satham.

Let sonless people have son,
Let people with son have grand sons,
And let people who are poor or rich,
Live and see one hundred autumns.

Sarve santhu niramaya,
Sarve bhadrani pasyanthu,
Ma kaschid dukha bhag bhaveth.

Let people live with pleasure everywhere,
Let all people live without diseases,
Let every one feel themselves secure,
And let none have at anytime sorrow,

Om Sarvesham swasthir bhavthu,
Om Sarvesham santhir Bhavathu,
Om Sarvesham poornam Bhavathu,
Om Sarvesham Mangalam Bhavathu.

Let comfort be every where,
Let peace be everywhere,
Let there be plenty everywhere,
And let good things happen everywhere.

Om Santhi, Om Santhi, Om Santhi

Let there be peace,
Let there be peace,
Let there be peace.

With friendship please serve,
And conquer all the hearts,

For mother earth is a wish giving animal,
And God our father is most merciful,
Restrain, donate and be kind,
To all the people of this world.
Let all the people live with bliss,
Let all the people live with bliss,
Let all the people live with bliss.
Sri Kanchi Maha Periva Thiruvadigal Saranam

  maa kuru dhana jana yauvvana garvam, harathi nimesha kaala sarvam.

rulers and the ruled have missed the right track, everywhere.

none of the political systems can work/ can be allowed to work, unless the individuals shift their priorities to the real purpose of existence, and deserve to be ruled by the one almighty nature.

a lot more intense search has  to be made  to know what is that life’s essential which missing.

may be it is the most difficult thing , may be the easiest of easy things

  maha vakyas…how

like ''aham brahmasmi '' say a truth that is existing and that is to be realized by the human thru sadhana 

......................................this reminds me …in the first introductory lecture on the first day in the first year of engg degree course.. our engg college principal welcomed us by saying ‘’welcome engineers………..’’ 

hearing this ,we were thrilled for a moment that we became engineers 

…………….did we leave the college?.............................. 

No we realized that there is a long road ahead, and we need to put in lot of hard work to realize the title ‘’engineers’’…………

……………………………………when syllabus was given , we had the glimpse of the total subjects , but yet we did not become engineers ......

... there were steps and finally we passed the 5 years exams and then we were awarded the degree certificate ..This applies similarly in spirituality .

the .4.maha vakyas 

1. Prajñānam Brahman – “Consciousness is Brahman”

(from the Aitareya Upanishad of the Rig Veda)

2. Ayam ātmā Brahman – “The Self is Brahman”

(from the Mandukya Upanishad of the Atharva Veda)

3. Tat Tvam Asi – “Thou art That”

(from the Chandogya Upanishad of the Sama Veda)

4. Aham Brahmāsmi – “I am Brahman”

(from the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad of the Yajur Veda)]]..............

.''.One has to be truthful about it to know on which step of the ladder you are standing on.''.....

.......since there are 4 higher levels rishi, maharishi,devarishi, brahmarishi ......common human experiences usually 3 lower states, ie sleep, dream, wake

...at each step the truth of maha vakyas will be experienced/lived accordingly differently 

....fully only at brahmarishi level ................................

..........divinity blossoms as purity of the system grows,

,,, qualities of devi devathas will be owned.

..ie that is how gods invocation results .

.....this happens at devarishi level

  maatha  

Is one of the many features of devi

….in the sloka ”yaa devi sarva bhuteshu…..mathru rupena samsthitha”

..devi is a goddess, not one particular mother,

nor a statue in a temple,

but it is the principle of mother in all pranis,

whether cat dog monkey human, chicken, bird, elephant, lion

..the principle of motherly care , responsibility, love, tender qualities, patience, in conceiving, giving birth

and protecting, feeding,

teaching skills , play , work, protection ,

cleaning, sanitation, etc.

..which are common features of mother in all pranis

… when i saw a cat attending to her children,

so lovingly , and commitment, against all odds, involving hard work,

i really was thrilled to see mother ”devi”’ in it

……………..that is how devi is eternal ,

all pervading in all beings, sarva bhuteshu,

not localized in time or space or to a specie

…so similarly all gods are particular eternal, principles,

eternal non changing laws of nature governing the universe

 My sanyas is wonderful

  my guru Maharishi Mahesh yogi taught me in 7 days what all life's lessons

not by words, nor by explanations, nor exclamations

not by notes nor notations nor by annotations

but by silence thru TM  [transcendental meditation]

thru my inner perceptions

he stayed far away , 

yet i feel his sway

never he talked to me , never did i meet

yet he is my constant hearts beat 

he is farthest , but nearest to me in my insides 

fully guiding from within ,one with me in me resides

staying in me since that time till now and for ever,

though he is now no more , on earth, unseen for ever

he made me so --- i need not look or read million books, 

nor learn, or recite scriptures. 

nor attend, listen lectures

neither there is a need for me to go to temple

church mazid gurudwara ashram matt or any prayer hall

ganga snan, bhajan keerthan gunagaan 

nor any kashayambar , haara, siro mundan, 

i am a great atheist 

and equally great theist,

neither i care to see tv 

nor to read news daily

i skip / ignore --all news views, 

comments, criticisms, complaints, suggestions, 

discussions, debates, agree, disagree, 

like, unlike , approve, disapprove,

advice , preaching or teachings 

awards, rewards, recognitions

i go as per my best inner directions, 

responding to each situation with fresh looks , new inspirations,

yet things are moving optimum

i strive for no maximum

just i live fully

joyfully 

jay guru dev

  My best discretion is the god in me making my choices .

it knows in a momentary glance what is gem what is junk

it will not be fooled by any sale talk , however brilliant, 

i do not mind picking a thing from mud , if i see value in it 

i can see thru the fake, tho well showcased with the best of dress and decoration.

i will not pass the buck to some unseen god, if i make a wrong choice, by mistake.

i take the consequences deliberately , with a smile, and suffer the losses laughing 

but i learn the lessons , i never will repeat the mistake

the lessons from my mistakes

lessons from other unfortunate victims of wrong choices

and my discretion gets sharpened by every incident, every encounter, 

and i grow continuously making wiser and wiser choices.

all because, i take the buck on to myself

  My university praised me giving me a degree , 

with first class with distinction , on convocation day

in the evening, i looked at adi shankara , 

he said '' o fool, it's all useless, will not save you, do something else''

i did accept shankara, did my home work, as he prescribed.

now i say to all ''moodha mathe, bhajagovindam''

take it as you feel, 

my intention is not a big deal

  maharishi 

A science  

is a systematic investigation by means of repeatable experiment to gain useful and testable knowledge

Creative 

means, having and displaying creativity

Creativity

is the cause of change present everywhere at all times

when active, it generates new expressions enriching to life, progressive and evolutionary in nature

Intelligence

is a basic quality of existence exemplified in the purpose and order of change

Creative Intelligence

single and branching flow of energy[creativity]and directedness [intelligence] is called Creative Intelligence

The science of creative intelligence

includes the experience and knowledge of the nature, origin, rage, growth, and application of creative intelligence

This science arose from the major discovery that there exists in every human being , the constant source of intelligence, energy and happiness and this source can be easily and systematically drawn upon by every one for spontaneous use in everyday life, thru the practice known as transcendental meditation , tm, , brought to light by maharishi mahesh yogi, the founder of the science of creative intelligence

Tm uses the natural tendency of the mind to progress and go beyond all the limitations and gain unbounded awareness

this experiential aspect of The science of creative intelligence provides the opportunity to everyone to develop the spontaneous use of his full potential of mind body and behavior

    maharishi is the one who gave me the genuine spiritual experience, 

transformed me totally , 

opened the flood gates of creativity , 

and to day i am in blessed state to be  sharing my truths, not words., 

i can sing his glory endless, 

i liked his total grip on the mysteries of life, directly leading me to the heavens he has discovered 

in the most modern and scientific, no nonsense idiom , 

who put many distortions straight, made me skip million books, with his one single simple teaching

in one word he is the one who put the horse of self realization before the cart of life 

and yes , the cart of my life started moving and picked up the momentum in no time .

he stays in me ever , 

his just name fills my heart and soul with bliss inexplicable 

tho he has left his physical body. 

he is one and unique great guru to me ,

  Meditation is an indoor game''

said maharishi Mahesh yogi,

in one of his jovial mood, laughed

i mused on playing games

out door games gross
indoor games finer
meditation is the finest

that's it , 
if one understands it

i elaborate still, it's joy
it's a ploy

game is a play, end product does not result in visible output, 
unlike in other acts

played with partners, or sported alone
win lose no matter, but all joy , and fun

involves environ, body, mind and their coordination
but more in easiness than like in a business

1 outdoor games are gross

involve paraphernalia you know what--
ground, team, ball ,bat, net, wicket, what not

body  running, walking, talking, jumping, bumping
needing large energy pumping

distances traversed are large

--horizontal--vertical--slant--skewed 

2 indoor games finer
involve far less of the features of out door ones

3 meditation is the finest
involve the least of even indoor ones

here ,one is the player, the partner, the spectator, the referee,
emptiness is the ground, all within, 

he is active with no activity

he plays he enjoys infinity

he is the winner
mind is the apparent loser,

but it's now with bigger, it's more a gainer
hence the game is win win, none the loser

wise play out doors, wiser play indoors
wisest play wall-less ,no doors

    my heart says

 -------god give me ability to act as per my heart

god make it possible to implement  heart's ways

i know this is possible only  in sathya yoga

but then please o god bring in sathya yuga

why are you delaying

let homeless purchase

 homes. i should not

 stand in competition

 with poor to invest in

 real estate  i have a

 house i do not need

 another plot or house

   maharishi is the one who gave me the genuine spiritual experience, 

transformed me totally , 

opened the flood gates of creativity , 

and to day i am in blessed state to be  sharing my truths, not words., 

i can sing his glory endless, 

i liked his total grip on the mysteries of life, directly leading me to the heavens he has discovered 

in the most modern and scientific, no nonsense idiom , 

who put many distortions straight, made me skip million books, with his one single simple teaching

in one word he is the one who put the horse of self realization before the cart of life 

and yes , the cart of my life started moving and picked up the momentum in no time .

he stays in me ever , 

his just name fills my heart and soul with bliss inexplicable 

tho he has left his physical body. 

he is one and unique great guru to me ,
