Awakening
What is awakening? What is life? Is it the person awakening to the realization that
life has some purpose? Is it the
process of awakening by undergoing various experiences through which we awaken
to the futility of life? Better then this, does the awakening mean dawning up
of realization that the person experiencing and the experiences and the outcome
associated with all those experiences in life is, what gives the meaning to
life . All three together make the purpose of life and each is incomplete without the other .
Is Awakening needed for every one ?
Does every one need to seek and become awakened to the higher plan
of things? Some are intrigued and confused with this question. Some proclaim
that man is already connected as he is divinity incarnated, so where is the
need for seeking connection? Some are conditioned to think that it is only for seers and saints to walk that path
to the extent that some even try to hide Geeta and such scriptures from their
children for fear of them renouncing the world. People take meaning from any
teaching according to their capacity to understand and readiness to face the
truth .Few worldly people scorn off spiritual life and some saints reject the
need of living in a family and society while seeking higher things. The concept
of Brahamcharya is one of the main feeder to negate the importance of family
life .People distort its meaning suiting
to individual need and convenience. But if brahmacharya is understood in terms
of renunciation and abstinence then why are most form of Gods mostly worshiped
as male and female or husband and wife? Why did Rishis in olden days live in
Ashrams with their wives? Few religions advocate only one form of Prophet or
God. This question must arise in each mind along with desire to know this mystery. We seek guidance from, mediums
and psychics and our religious groups, thinking they can provide us the answer.
But how can any one provide us with the answer when the same question is still
lingering at the back of their head? We have to
understand that the other people who have managed to work on themselves
have discovered their own truth for themselves; they can offer us wisdom and
guidance only. Each one of us hold our
truth in our head and we will live in limbo until we will see it with our own
soul’s eye. Most of us remain imprisoned by the dogmas, beliefs and ancestral
prejudices and lack the courage to start walking the path leading towards our
own truth. Like slaves and sheep, we follow herd mentality and hold others and
God responsible for our life
If every body need to be
aware about his surrounding, his environment, his education and career
opportunity, his rights and duty, develop some useful hobby.. Man being
superior to other species in nature is required to utilize his all his faculties to full use for living a fulfilling
life for himself and useful life for the society. For seeking all above things
man is using his lower mental faculty (intelligence) not the higher intuitive
faculty (wisdom).Wisdom is higher consciousness descending through us. Higher
consciousness can be termed as lord’s law, constitution of creation or higher
will ,which works for the betterment of every being and thing in the universe.
Just like the law of the land or
constitution of the country works for each citizens’ good will .If we are
required to learn and apply law of the land, which is just for one life and a
particular place and time .With the passage of
time and with boundary wall of
the country the law changes. The inner
connection, which is like a main syllabus of the class of life, which works in
all parts of the universe and all the time. To do good deeds means the higher
law (cosmic will) must descend through us for the good of humanity just like every one must follow law to be a
good citizen of the country .This is only possible if we not let life run
mechanically but become aware and seek higher connectedness .
Those who say that we are connected without any awareness and
seeking ,they are like illiterate person claiming his status in the society or one
wanting healthy body ,good life
and peace without any knowledge and any effort to avail what he wants.
This stage only arrives when we are ready to walk the path less
trodden, wonder at the diverse and multifaceted nature of life and ask this
question to ourselves, why there is so much paradox, so many beliefs and
groups, yet so much unrest in the society. When we relate every incident in the
life to its deeper and profound truth, not get swayed by just the superficial
nature of the event .
Slowly and steadily we begin to awaken to the fact that though on
soul level we are all essence of pure unconditional love but on human level we
are different. Each one of us has come according to our soul’s intended plan of
progression and it is only about experiences and lessons in the end .With
the ‘awakening’ to the fact that ‘life is a paradox ’we learn to
discern and this ‘awareness seeks Guru’, Guru guides to Yoga, Yoga heals illusions ,
leading
towards
enlightenment .we become interior
decorator of the Self
Truth has many levels that is
why Life is a Paradox
Truth is the missing piece from the puzzle of life.Each one of us
has to learn to know, to understand and believe, to find our own the truth and be our own true nature. Truth
has many levels, that is why life is a paradox.
The irony of life is not that it ends so soon, but we take long to
understand it .Life is a mystery yet for few it is an open book. Life is a
tragedy and also an object to enjoy through our senses. Life is a love and we
hardly find one in reality.
Life is considered a journey, but aren’t we struck in one situation
for many life times? Some with lesson on love, some with faith and hope.
Instead of learning these virtues and moving on, we get caught up with the
opposite vices like hate, violence, distrust.
Life is to gain knowledge,
start from a scratch, learn through experiences, earn every thing .And then
forget and forgo, renounce every thing. Every thing is reality at the moment
that is why it is said, live in the moment as it is, and yet nothing is real in
the end.
One yearns for success in every endeavors yet it is failures which
teaches us the most.
Every body knows whenever you wake up it is the morning or the
awakening yet we say, who knows how much time, how many births it takes to
awaken.
We confess of having full faith in God, not even a leaf can fall without His Will. We don’t fully
accept the statement we often repeat
‘whatever happens happens for good.’ That’s why there are long
explanations and blames at some unto wards incident and
We crib and detest whatever wrong or painful is happening to us. And
how much we inflate with ego on some meager achievements?
We are asked to follow good things and leave bad ones. What is good for one may be bad for another.
One may be totally confused weather is there some thing good or bad in reality.
What is insight? Buddhist says its all
void and the journey is to reach that emptiness. Vedanta says it’s all full and
we are trying to get connected to this fullness.
Life is a continuously rotating wheel, which is running
mechanically, we have to surrender to the flow .We are such a tiny object, so
helpless that we can hardly make a difference in the divine plan of our life,
yet we have the free will to resist and exert a conscious effort to come out of
this wheel .
We consider our self God spark, yet we feel so miserable, that we
remain like empty receptacles, not even capable of receiving His Grace. Yet we
are co creator of our own destiny, for we are part of that powerful source of
origin of every thing, that we can make the power of God flow through us and
begin to co create with God. Who says
that we are fearful for we are weak? It is more frightening to know that our potential
and powers lies within us. We are
avoiding to realize our true nature
because it will burden us with more responsibility. We prefer to be weak
and ignorant for we have to become watchful of our wishes, lest they are
fulfilled. Its easier to jump from one
child hood to another and blame people and circumstances rather than grow up
and take responsibility.
To the external world we are all doing the same thing but internally
we are not doing the same thing at all. For some the motion of life is
mechanical without any meaning attached to it, for others every motion is
driven by a goal for higher purpose.
At a soul level we are all members of an extended family, every body
is here for the same reason, yet every one has individual purpose. We say on
soul level we are equal. But the
greatest paradox is that on soul level also we are not equal. Some of us are
higher in attainment of wisdom, compassion, and knowing the great importance of
being true to our selves than others. Same holds true on the human level; we
measure and class each other according to our place in society and how much
money, qualification and intelligence we have.
When we are young, we look up to our parents with expectations, for
reassurance and approval. As we grow up and become parents we have to provide
the same to our children. Its irony that we can not treat our children same way
as our parents preached and protected us. There is always a generation gap,
time is always changing. When we are growing up, our parents are at the peak,
they are evolving. With our evolution starts our parents’ dissolution .With
growing up of our kids, now its time for role reversal. What was new yesterday
has become old today; we have to learn from our children the same way, how we
taught them. The way we pinpointed their weakness to encourage them to come out
of it, now they will do the same to us. The only thing permanent in life is
change. Change is the sign of progress.
If we are not flexible, can not accept role reversal, we cannot progress
.Without changing we can not achieve new dimension of life and living. .
Worldly
intellectual people proclaim that the material possessions and achievements are
what matters most, declare them insane, who are seeking spiritual connection.
Spiritually wise people call this physical world as maya, the illusion and not
important at all. Some call for renouncing worldly possessions and desires,
others shun seeking spiritual connection as waste of time
We need to discard tunnel vision to see the contrariness in things
and in ourselves .We can grow only when we replace shortsightedness with a
vision that reaches out. We don’t have to level people and events. We have to
accept both the tiger and lamb in us. We have to see that we are weak and
strong, innocent and guilty both .We can
not become self righteous moral guardian and become picky to condemn others.
Enlightenment and happiness do not mean that every thing is perfect; it only
means that one has learned to look beyond perfection. For there is nothing
right or wrong. Only when we are at peace with the conflict inside us, we are
able to love the ways the world is outside us. Buddhist mindfulness is about
doing the same thing in life in a different way by becoming less mechanical and
more purposeful.
But isn’t life bit of every thing? God needs people to acknowledge
His presence. We need God to give meaning to our existence on earth. Atheist
provides contrast background and obstacles and challenges placed by society
make work of non atheist people shine forth and stand out. For without sacrificing his life by accepting
crucification, could we understand the message of compassion and forgiveness of
Jesus? Without Ravana’s indomitable demeanour how could we learn the message
from Rama’s life?
Did Krishna only Guide Arjuna to
fight the battle in Kurukshetra many centuries ago? What about us in the
present time? Have we left God or He left us very far to some unforeseeable
future? After a critical time every thing
is drawn back to its original place. This is the cycle of creation, cycle of
birth and death. . In between these two events lies action-the jest for
life, our worldly dreams, joy of achievements, tragedy of failure, sacrifice of
a messiah, treachery of traitor , all of this impelled by single Life Force. When we become aware of our spiritual
nature, we begin to see the God light within and every thing around us
.That is why, miracles do not happen in
contradiction ,but in contradiction to that which is known to us in nature.
(The day I completed writing
this article, I found a very simple answer for every confusion, every judgment
and contradiction. Truth has many levels that is why life is a paradox. I could
accept people as they are .I could also accept myself as I am . I was also
trying to seek happiness by becoming perfect .Now I understood that hardest lesson of my life was to understand
that happiness does not mean that every
thing is perfect but to learn to look beyond
imperfection and still enjoy life ).
Awareness seeks
Guru
Holistic Awareness and spiritual
revelation is a stage of human evolution when this realization dawns on us that
physical body and visible world is not the only reality. Its not my permanent
abode Then what are the powers working through me.
Soul is our real
guru -. Soul is our real Guru .Outside world,
circumstances, and Guru are just the reflection of our inner growth. When we
grow up in our perception beyond physical or concrete reality to understand
abstract metaphysical phenomenon, we come to this realization that physical and
metaphysical world are both two sides of the same coin called life. This
earthly existence is temporary like seeking admission in the school of Life
Worldly Guru -one of the function of our higher self is to give us hunches that
we can follow .We have such sublime experiences, which are for us to realize our true part in the
drama of this life . After such an experience we will always know that there is
another reality as memories of those experiences will always haunt.If our
intension to be free is not absolutely clear, the experiences soon become just
a memory. Basic structure of the ego remains in tact and fundamentally
unchanged. Thus we get stuck. Getting stuck is also one of the part of the
progress, which means we have to still learn something from that situation, but
we are having difficulty in digesting it.. We must learn to listen to the quite
voice of our soul, we have a free will, what to seek and what to reject, No
body can bind or liberate us. Law of attraction operates by sending back
whatever we send out to the universe.
Thus we must stop resenting negative experiences, learn that the world
is not a jail and every action not a punishment, look at life as a school for
seeking opportunity and seize the possibility of growth in adversity and look
at the life’s situation from the standpoint of thankful heart.
Master or guru – The true spiritual seeker should not worry who the Guru is?
Seeker’s concern should be getting prepared, organizing his thoughts and life
in a spiritually healthy way that simplifies and purifies. And at the right
time Guru will be there. Once the Guru is there the methods and behavior of
Guru should not be disciple’s concern but to work on the instructions of the
Guru towards selfless and surrender of ego. The ego is the principle barrier to
enlightenment. Guru is not a person but guru is represented in a person. A
person who is finally attuned to inner guide only can inspire the awakening of
inner guide of another. The guru and disciple relationship is indescribable and
extends beyond the world, transcends death, and stretches far beyond the
limited bonds associated with family and friends.
Guru guides to yoga
The whole
process of yoga which includes preparation, seeking knowledge, healing and
meditation is to develop holistic awareness and experience realities beyond
physical existence
Yoga, which
today is commonly mistaken for few difficult body postures, is an eight fold
path, eight stepped ladder, a much deeper understanding of scientifically
researched spiritual techniques devised by our saints and seers centuries ago. Each limb is designed to attain supreme consciousness by quietening
the mind and merging it with the infinite. Virtually starting from external
world, physical body, slowly transcending mind to experience reality of unity
of body , mind and soul .Each leg is strengthening and supporting the next
higher or ascending one .This is a continuous process , life has no meaning if
we don’t believe in being eternal. Till final destination merger with the
source (Samadhi) is achieved.
Eight steps of
yoga are yama, niyama, asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharna, dhyana and
Samadhi.
1Yama -espouses values of non violence or ahimsa, honesty, or satya,
asteya or abstension from theft of tangibles and intangibles, brahmacharya or
non greed, and aparigraha or non possession.
2. Niyama- means oberservances that would discipline the way we treat ourselves.
Niyama constitute the habit of purifying self from negative vibrations and
preoccupation with the physical state, contentment or santosha, tapas to burn
impuries at the levels of body, mind and intellect, study of scripture or
swadhyaya to motivate and inspire the seeker and lastly devotion or ishvara
pranidhana, to connect yourself to the cosmos.
3Asana or body posture needed to prepare one for meditation. To sit for a
long time in contemplation requires a disciplined body to control the mind.
Posture is mastered by freeing mind and body from tension and restlessness
required for meditating on the infinite.
4. Pranayama- prana is the life force which governs each one of us through the
breath. Pranayama is the control of breath. The basic steps are inhalation,
retention and exhalation.The rhythmic patterns of slow and deep breathing helps
in longevity and calming mind by removing distractions required for
concentration and meditation.
5. Pratyahara- refers to
state of with drawl of mind- which according to Vyasa “is the state by which
the senses do not come in contact with their objects.” So, when we master
pratyahara, we are able to focus because you no longer feel disturbances caused
through external objects.
6. Dharna –means training the mind to focus on one point, “Concentration is
binding thought in one place “, says Patanjali. The objective here is to
quieten the mind by focusing on an object-such as flame or point. Concentration
is effortless and thoughts get pushed out of the system.
7. Dhyana-is uninterrupted meditation without any object. The goal of
meditation is to create heightened awareness to establish connection and
oneness with the macrocosm. So how does one differentiate concentration from
meditation? Till the time it is deliberate effort, awareness’ of distraction
then one is concentrating and not meditating. In case of chants, japa, prayer
etc one is preparing through concentration for going into next phase
‘meditation’ is subsequence result of this arduous practice, the calm achieved spilling
over into other aspects of life, strengthening one’s emotional and spiritual
intelligence.
8. Samadhi-The last leg, the state of absolute bliss, the merging with the
Ultimate Reality .Then Him and we become one and same, His wish is done through
us.
All eight limbs
described above work in unison. The first five steps which are primarily
concerned with body and mind lay a very strong foundation for the last three
steps, which ultimately recondition the mind to attain full realization of
oneness with Ultimate Reality through integration of body, mind and soul.
Physically- yoga orchestrates all the system of the body from cleansing,
stimulating, healing, and rejuvenating .On biochemical level it flushes out
toxins and improves the digestive and elimination systems. It benefits muscle
and skeleton systems by toning up every muscle ligament and bones with gentle
resistance. Stretches burn the flab and increases body’s tenacity by
invigorating central nervous system, yoga helps mind sync into body and vice
versa.
Psychologically-It balances left logical and right creative side of the brain,
clearing confusion and enhances self esteem thus up lifts one spiritually.
Emotionally-The happy hormones yoga generates give one a serge of positively,
vision without limitation. One is forced to breath out grudges, fears, phobias,
greed, lust, and any thing that is detrimental to health, making one gentle,
philanthropic and conscientious.
Healing
Illusions
Meditation heals
illusion by transcending in to Samadhi ,The seventh step of yoga is giving time to listen to our self, to silence
the noisy mind, which constantly talks, what we need to do and what not. When
that incessant babble is turned off. A whole new world of sweet harmonious
reality opens up for us. The reality is always there but earlier it was beyond
our perceptual range. Because of our newly gained abilities, we
have to be deeply honest with self and others. Our feelings and our private
realities are no longer hidden from others. They are being communicated through
our human energy field. As we begin to understand this information, we
understand each other more clearly than we did it earlier.
Meditation, Dhyana, Sadhna is focusing attention inward, , transcending mind to
enter into an expanded state of awareness, raising our consciousness to higher
frequencies, so that we can experience the realities of our higher bodies,
higher consciousness and higheays and materialize it for worldly function.
Meditation is to
expand our perceptual range, increase our level of consciousness. The process
of development higher awareness and High Sense Perception is a normal evolutionary step for human race leading
one to next stage of human development.
Meditation ends in Samadhi. Samadhi,
the eighth leg of yoga leads us to
the enlightenment that this world is filled with the presence of God. All
things good for mankind are godly energies ,seeds of which are embedded in each
one of us as we all have originated from the same source. Every one should work
hard to achieve health, happiness, harmony, abundance, wisdom, power, creativity,
success in the pursuit of higher purpose of life. It is possible only when one
is healthy and integrated in body, mind and soul. The seventh step is self
progressive to eighth step Samadhi, where the individual consciousness merges
with the universal consciousness making one seer, Scene and the process of
seeing one whole phenomena , claiming our co creator hood .We become Interior decorator of
the self.
Samadhi
Transforms Mass into energy
Every thing is
energy, Quantum physics and Dr Einstein
confirmed unified field theorem E=mc2..That matter and energy are same thing
only their vibration rate is different. Chair, plants, machine part all has
energy. In matter or non living thing the energy is condensed and rotating at a
much slower rate. So they are not growing or dying with possible observable
time as the living things does. Because of slow vibration rate the changes are
happening at a much slower rate which we can not observe exactly in one life
time. Like rocks, sea, metal, earth or furniture,
an art piece. . So we term them non living things. Materially energy of non living things is
measured in terms of amount of money
and mind spent on them in planning, shaping decorating and preserving
.spiritually they possess energy in terms of their inherent quality, durability
and utility.
Solid, liquids
and gases have different vibration rates in increasing order, lowest in solids
and highest in gases.
Amongst living
beings, plants have lowest frequencies than animals and humans have higher than
animals. And in human beings also advance human beings have higher frequencies
than those at the beginning of their development. The basic difference between
human beings is of level of consciousness. and the level of consciousness
depends on the frequency of prana or energy or ki or chi one is capable of
absorbing and storing.
The power at
work behind our body’s material appearance with all its functions and
capabilities consists of network of complex energy system. Without which the
physical body could not exist. This system of
energy consists of three basic components.
1 ‘Human
Energy Field’ ‘The Energy Bodies.’ ‘The layers of Aura.’ 2 The Chakras. ‘The Energy centers’.3 The
Nadis. ‘The Energy channels’.
At the beginning of body functions are the
nerves, controlled by hormonal secretion, which acts as catalysts, a spark to
set body function in motion. Hormones are influenced or activated by our
thoughts which are the minute and fundamental part of energy .these thoughts in
the form of energy are carried through subtle energy channels ‘nadis’ which are
the vessel or vein to transport prana or vital energy through out our body . One of form of expression of prana is
air in the form of breath. Other means are food, water, gems, plants, positive
intensions, chemicals and minerals etc .After having this much awareness one
can be confidently try to become Interior decorator of his body.
Interior Decorator
Interior decorator of my body the abode of my
soul, this is what I call my self. I have only changed the name, intention and
purpose are same as any one treading on the inward path, ‘the knowledge and
experiences about self’’ ‘the spiritualist’. Some call them sadhu, Rishi, guru,
pundit or devotee. What’s there in a name? Cook, tailor, barber are old names.
They didn’t do their work out of choice but because there was no other way than
to adopt their ancestors’ profession. Now a days, people opt for these
professions with new names like fashion designer, beauty expert, chef et all.
As is the saying, love your work, life is a joy, consider work as duty, you are
a slave. These new professionals not only earn money, name and fame but also
enjoy their work. Same is with the new age spiritualist. He does not follow
traditional rituals of a particular religion. ,he is evolved head of all these
and is guided , compelled by his inner self to look within , to search for
answers of life and death, to know his origin, find true happiness and search
for eternal truth, The God Head .
Physically beautician, dietician fashion designer is beautifying us, but each day we grow old and loose our beauty. External beauty is not permanent and is receding every day. If we become Interior decorator of self, the spiritual ones, we can beautify our body ‘mind and soul’ in increasing order. Inner experiences lead us towards permanent destination, and we can claim our status of pure conscious and become ‘The Enlightened ’
Why to become interior decorator of self. ?
Knowledge about worldly things makes us intelligent and smart but knowledge about self makes us self realized and enlightened. There are so many artifacts in the market ,so much beauty around, we can enjoy any of these only when we visit any of these personally for that moment ,but it doesn’t give us permanent joy. We are lingered with a desire to have it in our house, to possess it forever. But we may not have the knowledge and capacity to acquire it permanently. Interior decorator knows where to buy, where to fit particular artifacts to enhance the beauty of the house and of the artifacts both.
Same way when we become interior decorator of self, we know the true happiness will only emanate when we have the knowledge and means to search and decorate precious jewels hidden in our store house ‘body’. And then our way of doing any thing becomes the fashion statement, style of the time. Yoga dhyana, Sadhna, reiki are the means to make us aware of our own treasures and our own potentials to find them and place them beautifully in our own body so that we are happy ,healthy, peaceful, prosperous and progressive.
By becoming spiritual one doesn’t have to depend on others like, astrologer, vastu, fengshui expert to carry on life smoothly. All such knowledge comes naturally to us on its own. By meditating we learn to be guided, by Sadhna or practicing reiki we know to scrub the rust, clean the dirt, free our body of dust.. Our house and our treasure! we become innovative like interior decorator, wash, dust, polish, exchange worn out antiques, create or buy new ones and place them economically and aesthetically .
No knowledge is new, only the names keep changing with time and place.
Terminologies like energy, vibration, imbalance, healing, etc are all old stuff in new bottles. There is only one energy at the origin in the universe and that is love ‘God’, which gets divided into negative or positive once it descends in to physical world. Positive is godly energy in the form of health, happiness, love ,sharing . and negative is demonic like hatred, illness, anger, lust etc.
Both physical and metaphysical world are two sides of the same coin called life, which means manifestation of cosmic energy in physical form. If we can be guided in some new scientific invention or literary idea , this is the out come of contemplation and concentration of our energy in that direction . Same way we can be intuitive, imaginative, visualizing and experiencing wonders of mystic world, through our inward contemplation and meditation.
So nothing is new. The vibration of ancient mystic knowledge is in the universe in resting phase. Same way as the man remains in the spiritual world until he manifests himself again in physical form. So the abundant knowledge spread across the universe wants to be attracted and manifested in material as well as spiritual form. Any body is entitled to take his choicest pick.
