"BONDAGE"

Bondage is not merely action but has a subtle level to it, I


am referring to the thought level, wherein the seeds of
action germinate. How to infer this statement, what exactly
are the underlying factors, I have enlisted below.
There are 3 factors which has a say in our demeanor they
are,

1) Mind
2) Intellect
3) Impressions.

Thoughts originate in the mind, and we are unaware of its


inception in the first place, then how exactly do we grasp
its latent workings. Each thought has a purpose a specific
direction ordained by the intellect based on certain moral
and ethical preconditions.
Thought is energy and those who realize this truth use it
with discretion and those who dont entrap themselves in
self made traps, a labyrinth from which there is no respite
and are cursed with bondage. This bondage constraints
their emotional and spiritual freedom. Now the question is
how does one liberate the self from this crux, to do this
there are various methods but i am enlisting a gist of the
same, they are points to ponder check and introspect on.

1) Check whether anyone is disatisfied with you,


this anyone may be related to you in anyway and may
come in contact with you under any circumstances, if there
is dissatisfaction then be aware there is bondage. The
solution is to satisfy one and all to the utmost of your
forbearance without compromising on ethical and moral
codes.

2) Give no room for complaints.

3) Do not be responsible for evoking intense thoughts


about you in others, this is a sure sign of bondage.

These are some of the pointers we ought to take note of in


a solemn way. I will be continuing some other aspects of
the same in my next posting. May you be in union with the
eternal god...

ARTICLE 2

"THE REVELATION"

'Alienation' seems to be the trend in contemporary times,


lost souls are increasing by the day & multitudes of
destitutes are migrating to the vast expanse of wilderness
of atheism. "God" the mere term has lost its glory in this
inferno of illusion. Souls are creating their own personal
ornate hell, this hell is so striking that its gloss seems to
bring the denizens into the entrapment of delusion.
The feeling of love slowly fades away into dissatisfaction
and then faith is sold for mere emotions. The solution to
this crux is latent in each mortal but has to be unlocked at
our own peril. The peril of rejection and branding and a
tendency of not conforming to the norms set by this so
called civilized society. To break free all we need is
courage and utmost faith in god. God is the only one who
offers unconditional love and expects nothing in return and
understands each and every one of us like a father
understands his child, so with faith we can break these
chains of gold which we willingly adorn and accept as fate.
To understand god is the "true Revelation" which we all
must undertake with an open mind a spirit of enquiry and
as a divine endeavor.

ARTICLE 3

“SPIRITUAL WAR”

The spiritual war has long begun, this war is in progress


day and night and every mortal remnant is engaged in it,
though this statement may strike to one as odd it has deep
roots somewhere in the human psyche. This war has
continued to grow into a poison tree for some unfortunate
and bedazzled souls lost in the myriad of delusions forcing
them to taste the forbidden apple. The roots run very deep
and are nurtured by nescient experiences. The spiritual
war is the internal war here, every sentient being has felt
this strife deep within oneself. Now the question arises
what is this war for and why fight.
The answer is quite simply in the word "realization”, but
again realization of what. This question has to be
answered by each mortal because it is latent and dormant
in all. The war here is the war with the vices (maya) and
only those who realize their eternal presence are freed
from it. We are all not just physical bodies but sublime
consciousness in expression this truth has to be realized
and only then do we succeed.

ARTICLE 4

“THEOLOGY”

From ancient times lot of deliberations has been made on


the nature and the exact essence of god. Who is god or
what is god remains an enigma to this day, though lot of
dogmatic sectarians may claim otherwise and argue that
the god they believe in is the true god, but that itself is not
a concrete basis from which god can be derived. God the
word conjures up images of a peaceful radiating protecting
father with benign qualities to many, but to really unravel
the mystery of the nature of god all we need to do is sit in
silence and introspect on god, we find that the more we
ponder on god the more we get closer to ourselves, what
does this mean, this means that the qualities of god we
seek is embodied in our own creation, in a sense we are
the children of god. The "we" here does not mean the
physical self, but infact means a radiating higher self
which lies dormant in all
Mortals, this "we" has to be unveiled to reveal the qualities
of god, the god we seek.

ARTICLE 5

“KURUKSHETRA”

The time is dawning where history takes its last laps and
comes full circle, we are standing in the middle of
kurukshetra, and the enemy is invisible and strives to
delude us. This is an internal conflict taking place in
realized minds. As sankalpa is the seed this potent
adversary targets its very framework. The fundamental
laws of right and wrong are questioned and the shadow is
cast on the intellect of the aspirant,
we have to search for the sun our dearest father as
without his guidance the war cannot be won.
But we have to remember one thing though that he shows
us the path but it is we who have to walk on it
and persistence is the key for such sustained efforts.
The enemy is mighty but we have to make our will
stronger, the spiritual fire can be put in trouble by unseen
winds and torrential rains, but we have to resolve to keep
it alight and cross this graveyard of the kurukshetra. We
have to seek a connection with god at every instant and
be alert to hidden dangers.
This hell fire of maya has been deluding us from many
births. Now is the time to arise, realize and persist in our
steadfast efforts to finish this maya fire with the fire of
Rajyoga and the soothing water of the divine knowledge
given to us by baba, then only we can put an end to this
kurukshetra war both internal and external. OM SHANTI.

ARTICLE 6

“PERFECTION”

Divine perfection is the pinnacle of persistent efforts and


steadfast travel in the Sahaj marg of Raj Yoga, the idea is
not to fight with maya but remain in agyat
vas and adopt the method of maya ki avidya, this is
possible if the flood gates of maya are locked using the
double lock of yaad and seva but there is a loop
hole without which we are bound to stay astray. It is the
pratagya we have taken the vrat we cannot break and the
blessing given to us by baba "Pavitra Bhav and Yogi
Bhav". As the cycle of time moves forward with giant leaps
we have to prepare our selves for this journey as soon as
possible and attain the divine perfection, remember the
easy mantra OM SHANTI.

ARTICLE 7

“SPIRITUAL DIMENSIONS”

Dimensions come into the picture of cognition, The 3


dimensions which surrounds this gross body is a
constraint limited in space and time. The soul or the spirit
is not limited in its original form of existence .It is free from
the physical sense organs and the dead limbs of this
lifeless body. Its speed is the speed of thought and
manifests matter through thought energy. This happens
beyond the physical realm in the subtle world. As Einstein
proved from the equation E = mc*2, energy and matter are
interchangeable.

The soul is weighed down due to a powerful constraining


factor "Karma" ,this is scientifically validated from
Newton’s 3rd law which states " Every action has an equal
and opposite reaction " So the point here is to understand
what is Right action and do the same this is possible only
when there is clarity of the intellect which comes from
realization of the all important question " Who am I " so
endeavor to do so with a mind free from bias and
prejudice and enlighten yourself ,only then will you be able
to transcend the physical dimension and enter spiritual
dimensions.
May you be in union with the eternal god . OM SHANTHI .

ARTICLE 8

"DEATH"

Death the mere reference evokes in us certain emotions,


each individual has an outlook to this enigma, but to really
understand death we need not look far and deep but just
observe. The question arises what do we observe-the
answer is "Nature (or prakriti)", its expression and
manifestations. We find that everything is cyclic in the
cosmos. It is a realm of opposites, creation and
destruction of all phenomena observe this 'cyclic law'.
Death is defined as cessation of life, but what exactly
ceases we fail to fathom. Death can be defined in different
ways, but what exactly is it, this understanding comes
from first setting up a reference point.

Let’s endeavor to unlock this code. Consider a dead body,


as it is lifeless there is no reference point to life, now take
the case of a living person, there is life so there is a
reference, the reference point is not one but 2 and they
are "Space and time". When life ceases this reference
ceases but the energy embodied is not destroyed, this is
subtle understanding. Though there is change with respect
to the reference the original life energy does not change
nor is destroyed. The only change occurs with respect to
the expression within the reference points. Thus life
energy or the soul (atman) renews itself and is re-
embodied with respect to another field of reference where
it expresses itself.
So to conclude it can be said that "Death is not the end
nor is Birth the beginning".

ARTICLE 9

“Cycle of Time”

The scene unfolds exactly the same way it has done


before. The eternal cycle has wheels set in motion and
continues to roll on. The new age or the great upheaval
talked about by all prophets is just a stone throw away.
The turning of the tables is imperative and about to come
to pass. The human race lies in deep slumber deluded by
maya and is unable to come to terms with this. The
spiritual soldiers alight and enforce submission of the
illusion which has blindfolded the potent. Time and space
and its whole understanding is about to change. So let us
all awake and realize this eternal truth that "We are not
human beings having a spiritual experience but we are
spiritual beings having a human experience". Let us all
strive to learn the art of detachment in these worldly and
mundane attachments and ascend to paradise, which is
going to befall mankind. Welcome to the new world. Om
Shanti.

ARTICLE 10

“Cycle of Time” (Deeper concepts)

We all know the famous quote “history repeats itself”, but


what exactly is it trying to convey we fail to fathom. When
we take a look at human history itself we find that
recorded history dates back to around 500 B.C. i.e. to
around 2500 years before now. Before that the
civilizations which flourished have no concrete
documentation and are derived in an abstract way.

So here we try to establish the missing links, when we


start traveling through the time portal we begin to enter a
sphere of arcane realities which somewhere lies latent in
each one of us. The only thing needed by us is to unlock
this higher reality; for this we need to travel beyond space
and time to the core of our being and endeavor to
understand timelessness.

This concept is quite intriguing for one who delves deep to


understand the subtle realities of day to day life and the
complex workings of situations which life throws at us.
When we look at the world today we find lot of ancient
wonders around which on rational thinking even
contemporary technology finds as an impossible feat and
marvels at their brilliance. So here the question arises as
to how those civilizations achieved feats which even
today’s technology fails to accomplish.

When we look at the history books we find that the ancient


man was very primal and ordained to life lacking in any
form of intelligence or for that matter civil behavior, so
therein lies the riddle which we must unlock. When we
look at nature we find it is cyclic day-night-day, spring-
summer-autumn-winter. Everything we observe tends to
follow a cyclic pattern. Take for example a tree - It springs
from the seed and wilts away and later the seed from the
same tree springs a new tree.

When we travel to the future we get a sense that science


is refining and new technologies are unearthed in this
process i.e. scientific progress is yielding far greater
powers in human hands and enabling one to achieve feats
which are impossible as of today. So when we look at the
situation and ponder, we find the missing link and realize
that the past becomes the future. There seems to be a
hidden connection and the past and the future join at a
point in human history. This seems to be an odd concept
but on introspection we indeed arrive at this.

So here when we look at the broader picture we find


things are actually in motion and a lot of energy transfer is
taking place and the most important thing is it is cyclic. So
let us look at the hidden picture for ourselves and
introspect; then we tend to validate that the same set of
events are taking place in a cyclic fashion throughout
history and indeed history repeats itself. So there you go
déjà vu.

ARTICLE 11

“IN TRANSIT”

The journey is undertaken with resolve. The aspirant who


strives encounters various patterns of energy flows within
oneself. This may comprise of thought patterns which
seem hard to comprehend. It seems that more one
advances on this spiritual journey towards perfection one
comes across expressions coming from within which are
very profound. In a sense that it seems to compel one in
different directions. Here the aspirant has to tread with
utmost caution and observe steadfast resolve in
overcoming this latent storm of thoughts and feelings.
These could be attributed to the past, the past in the
sense beyond this birth. As the soul the owner of the body
plays varied roles along this journey around the world
cycle it stores certain traits and patterns in the
unconscious which begin to express itself when one starts
to travel inward through meditation. Here God
consciousness plays a key role in recharging oneself with
the divine light and might, giving one strength to stand
steady in these currents of settlements. We have to
understand that these patterns are dying out so they tend
to pull with maximum force while doing so. This shows that
the aspirant is progressing and indicates cleaning of the
soul. So let us keep the company of god always and make
quick strides towards the ideal. Om Shanti.

ARTICLE 12

“Metaphysical Realities Brought to Light”

Dimensions are an illusion which blind cognition.


Metaphysical truths are toying with reality in absurd ways
which seem hard to comprehend. Here the line of focus of
common individuals engaged in routine work is blinded.
This perception is intuitive and comes under the realm of
occult studies, but the point is that they are branded.

As the famous quote goes “The supernatural is only the


natural not yet understood”, but because of lack of
awareness we entrap ourselves in these fatal belief
systems which feel comforting but lack wisdom and
foresight. The reality is that it is quite obvious for each one
of us to experience and also express the supernatural
which is but natural.

But the only criterion is awareness. Here the question


arises, awareness of what and the answer is the self. No
wonder the most asked question by philosophers around
the world throughout history is “who am I”, so here we
come to understand that this is the distinguishing factor
between ordinary living and extraordinary living.

Great seers and wise men of yore are not any weird
beings but their success can be attributed to this simple
logic. If we all endeavor to rise above the mundane and
seek higher levels of perception it would only require the
right knowledge coupled with awareness, and this would
mean increased productivity on all levels of life which can
be seen in the attitude and outlook towards life a person
has.

ARTICLE 13

“Empires Are First Built in the Mind”

Before any empire can be built the seed has to be sown in


the mind and this seed is nothing but the thoughts we
create. Any successful venture, be it a company or an
enterprise works on certain fundamental laws which
govern the internal machinery.
The pivotal factor in determining success in any team or
group is essentially human interaction and at the base of
this is human communication. How we fellow denizens
come into play amongst each other. This may be based on
a number of factors based on the framework of the psyche
of each other.

But ultimately it comes to morality, as perspectives differ


there may be violations or breach of trust but the ultimate
aim would be to create group synergy. This paradigm
would call for another approach which is not so commonly
seen. It is the spiritual angle, as in a work place we tend to
identify with various parameters which we ourselves set.
We need to look beyond these artificial veils of bias which
are very subtle and ingrained deeply.

The truth is all of us are intrinsically good but because of


certain predispositions tend to alienate ourselves from the
crux of human exchanges. Any exchange or a relationship
can be pleasant and this would give synergy and
contribute to growth and eventually end up in successful
empires. But for this we have to understand how this
subtle machinery of human interaction works.

We find that people working together may be from


different backgrounds or in fact have different belief
systems which they adhere to. So here we need to
exercise utmost caution and constantly be aware of our
exchanges with one other as the other person may infer a
common sign as a sign of dissent based on perception.
So we have to trace the origin of interaction which is as
follows: starting with the thoughts it tends to manifest as
feelings which are conveyed through signs and eventually
through the vocal means. It comes forth in action and
behavior which is observed. So here if we realize a subtle
truth, our entire approach changes and distances melt
improving the foundation of human interaction which is
communication.

As the famous quote goes, “We are not human beings


having a spiritual experience but we are spiritual beings
having a human experience”. So in view of this when we
realize we all are essentially spiritual beings coming into
interaction in this field of play, here specifically the work
place then the feeling of universal brotherhood dawns and
our exchanges become so smooth and loving that the
relationship is nurtured and the work culture is empowered
and success is just a byproduct of this which can be
cherished.

ARTICLE 14

“Garden Of Eden”

The concept of “Garden of Eden” is quite an intriguing


one. When we sit down to comprehend this mystery, we
naturally embark on a journey into the past or, as some
would say, into another dimension. This idea has captured
the universal imagination and is synonymous with our
craving for the ideal.
The term “Garden of Eden” might be derived from
Christian literature, but in fact it is referred to by different
names in other religions. For ex: In Hindu religion it is
termed as “Swarga”, in the religion of Islam it is termed as
“Jannat.” Similarly, it is called as Shangrila, Shambala,
Utopia, Paradise, etc. and the list goes on. The point here
is to understand what it exactly means and why there is a
certain sanctity associated with it.

According to biblical references “God created man in his


own image” and granted him an ideal home to live. This
home is termed as the Garden of Eden, now the fact that
paradise was lost by falling from grace on account of a sin
is known to us. But what was that paradise like? And
where did it exist? Are some of the questions which we will
try to answer. Also we can recall that Christ kept referring
to the lost paradise in his teachings and also told us that
the lost paradise would come back again.

Here the question of the place is - Where does this


paradise exist? Does it exist in any other dimension or in
an alternate parallel world or did it exist here on this earth.
The answer we arrive upon contemplation is that the
paradise exists here itself.

This is understood when we go back in time, we find that


the population decreases proportionally, this would again
challenge the theory of evolution, but that is another topic
altogether. So here when we look at the world history we
find that the recorded history dates to around 500 BC and
before that the description of the time was based on
assumptions which are not validated in a concrete fashion.
So we can infer that paradise existed on this earth before
recorded history.

When we take a look at the ancient wonders and


structures of magnificence around us, we note that they
are not mere findings, but they have more to them than
what is perceived about them. The technology used for
their construction is far more superior to the technology
existing now, so here we understand that they were
constructed during the time when paradise existed. Now
the question arises - Who were the people who inhabited
the paradise? Were they any advanced beings? or Were
they just like us?

The truth is that people living in paradise must have also


been special. So here upon pondering we understand that
they had higher morality and discipline of life, as
compared to us, i.e. they were evolved beings in terms of
actions and reactions observed in human behavior
paradigms.

Now from our understanding of the cyclic nature of time,


we can conclude that the lost paradise is going to be
restored at some point in human history, but to account for
this, we as individual entities can contribute by marching
towards the ideal, by changing our false belief systems
and adopting a higher order of morality. We also should
understand that we lost this paradise due to our deviation
from the norm of morality and values during the course of
the world history.

When we ponder on all these concepts, we understand


that the predictions of doom and dooms day are not
exactly talking about destruction and catastrophes but in
fact they are signaling towards a coming time when
everything is going to be perfect again and the lost
paradise is going to be restored on this earth.

So let us all endeavor to awaken to a higher and evolved


lifestyle based on morality and wisdom, this way we would
also be contributing to the global cause of peace and
harmony amongst all, and eventually we can usher in a
new age by restoring the “Garden of Eden” to its lost
grandeur and magnificence.

ARTICLE 15

“E = M C ^ 2”

This equation attributed to Albert Einstein has caught the


attention of scientists as well as philosophers alike. The
common perception is that Einstein was an alternate
thinker in a generation filled with reformers, but Einstein
had more to him than is commonly understood. The exact
essence of this famous equation and particularly its
spiritual significance is of interest. Let us first try to decode
in a general way before moving on to a profound analysis
of the same.
When we take the individual terms we note ‘E’ stands for
energy, ‘M’ stands for mass and ‘C’ stands for velocity and
in this context specifically the velocity of light which is
calculated to be in the order of 3 × 10 ^ 8 m/s. The basic
understanding which Einstein advocated using this
equation is that energy and matter are interconvertible
when either of the two approach the speed of light.

Here the space–time paradigm also comes into the


picture, which we refer to as dimension. Another
interesting conclusion from this equation is that time is an
illusion. This concept is highlighted by philosophers who
claim that as any object or matter approaches the speed
of light it experiences something called timelessness, and
time is just a change in reference.

All these ideologies are better understood when we look at


the spiritual aspect of this intriguing equation. Here we
look at something which each and every one of us
continues to do day in and day out, but with or without
awareness. This is thought creation, we think, don’t we?
Now how this fits in seems to be an obvious question.
Here we need to look at the speed of thought.

The speed of thought varies depending on various


parameters like the nature of the thought, the desire
behind the thought etc. Now, to get an idea of the speed of
the thought, we observe that we can travel beyond space
and time using the same. One could think of contrasting
things like the sun and an ice cream. Now here we
observe that there are no limitations or constraints to our
thoughts. So when we compare speed of thought vs. the
speed of light, what we find and infer is interesting.

The inference is thoughts can travel faster than light. So


what this means in a scientific language comes into the
picture now. Thoughts are energy forms and once the
speed of the thought becomes equal to the speed of light,
time is nullified and once the speed exceeds the speed of
light we start traveling backwards in time. Now applying
the equation E=MC^2, we note that thought energy is
interconverted to matter at the speed of light and this
matter which is nothing but an energy form materializes
into reality.

Thus thoughts are not just stray forms without


significance; they have a deep significance in each one of
our lives. We have just pictured how it materializes into
reality in more ways than one. So the idea is to think
differently to materialize success in any endeavor. This is
also the secret behind yogis dwelling in solitude who
materialize things out of nothing. So here we conclude that
supernatural is only the natural not yet understood and
now we understand the power latent in each one of us to
unlock a beautiful destiny of choice through pure thinking.

ARTICLE 16

“A Human Being Is a Microcosm”


When we look at the universe, it is a vast expanse of
different forms of energy interoperating in a pattern of
sorts. When the theory of Doppler Effect which is based
on sound is applied to light a common hypothesis arrived
at is that the universe is expanding.

This is observed by the scientific study of frequency of


light waves reaching the earth from the vast expanse. It is
found that the frequency is reducing. This gives an
inference to scientists and philosophers alike observing
cosmic phenomena that the universe is expanding and
this theory has held ground among scientists for a long
time now. This can be understood based on science as
moving from equilibrium to disorder. A new theory
“Reverse quantum cosmology” challenges this theory and
comes up with another radically different theory which
states that the universe expands and contracts
periodically; the value of this theory remains to be seen.

The second law of thermodynamics states that any system


moves from an ordered state i.e. a state of equilibrium to a
disordered state and that this cannot be reversed unless
acted upon by an external agency which tends to bring the
system back to equilibrium; on applying this law to the
cosmos we may infer that the universe is in flux and
moving towards a disordered or chaotic state now and
unless an external agency acts on it the universe cannot
regain equilibrium or come back to an ordered state. Who
or what acts as the external agency in this context remains
to be understood.
Now let us look at the spiritual angle which springs forth
interesting conclusions. These can be validated by deep
contemplation. It may be an odd analogy but it is true that
there are parallels which are subtle and can be observed if
pondered upon.

The philosophers’ and spiritualists’ famous quote “Man is


a microcosm” has to be understood in clarity because
there are various doctrines advocating different schools of
thought on the same. Let us first start with an assumption
that the human being is a microcosm. This would imply
that the entire universe is a macro view of the human
body. The entire internal machinery within the human body
is similar to the entire external machinery operating in the
cosmos. As science validates the randomness of the
cosmos, this on application to the human body reveals
disorder within the human body.

Now here the concept of the spirit comes forth and the
innate difference between the human body and the spirit
operating it is pictured. We draw conclusions that the
human body is in disorder because the spirit and the
spiritual energy manifested by the spirit is in disorder and
this can be seen by apparent violation of morality and
ethics by majority of the human race today.

Now the concept of the external agency has to be


understood. Here the external agency is none other than
god who is our own spiritual godfather, though views on
this may vary based on the background of the individual; it
is universally accepted that there is a higher power that we
all refer to as god. Now when we look at the abstract
picture there is clarity; we realize on introspection that the
order of the cosmos is going to be reestablished by the
external agency, god and this is accomplished by restoring
the order of the spirit that clothes the human body which
can be seen in analogy with the cosmos.

So this restoration of the order of the cosmos has to be


done by the external agency and no human being within
this closed system is capable of restoring this order. Now
when we look at it we also realize that no system tends to
be in equilibrium at all times and that the degree of
randomness increases over time resulting in disorder. This
ideology would also validate the cycle of time and role of
god in this closed system of the cosmos which operates in
a cyclic fashion moving from order to disorder and then
back to order again with the help of the external agency
god.
