Foreword
My noting of 18.02.15 Meditation. My graceful and supple times with none other than His Holiness Shri Swami Kartikeyan on this fateful day was a true blessing.
My lifelong urge and keen interest in understanding the covert, underlying unlimited powers of our dynamic and untapped thoughts were brought to the fore and expounded in great depth with perfect acumen by revered Swamiji. My unflagging craving to learn more from these celestial Masters was partially satiated and appeased in my meditation on 18.02.15 morning. Besides in the approaching days too, when he was overly gracious to teach me these following mysterious and unknown facts and principles of thought power.
In addition, it was on this promising day that for the first time he disclosed to me so benevolently something about himself- it was about his undisclosed personality and special qualities that he is still retaining till this day. He revealed to me about his area of specialty. He had perfected all the hidden and unknown power of thoughts with the kind grace of omnipresent God! He has infinitely powerful thoughts and he calls this quality- Sankalpa Shakti, the power of materializing one’s thoughts.
To me all the Heavenly, Holy Masters are like shimmering, twinkling bright stars in the far-off realms of distant sky and they all radiate their own beautiful, soothing and very gentle Divine Light when contacted in deep communion. So many times, when I have closed my eyes and sat serenely in my room, I have seen them as mere shining light in far off planetary lands; sometimes also as blinking and flashing stars very, very far-flung. Perceiving those shining stars or tall beams of light brings indescribable peace and silence as I sit unmoving and very still in solitude.
There is a huge flush of current in my system when I am brought closer to them mentally and made one with them in my thoughts with the benevolent grace of God. The unity of our minds begins to unfold a whole lot of mystifying beauty, mystery and the gamut of opening up of so many vistas hidden within these Shining Lights. This is coming straight from the eternal and immortal living beings whom we have been calling Nitya Jyot– Eternal Light! I begin to float in bliss and I am in the mysterious landscapes of that Universe through which unlimited prospects of a new, untold and unreachable world lays open all of a sudden.
I begin to have a very solemn and direct channel of communications through which I receive unreserved, new enlightenment. This state of mind’s content is so pleasing and enthralling, these mere words can never capture and re-experience those states of mind if asked to retell. Nevertheless, these posts give us a blissful glimpse and a brief preview of those beautiful moments if retold with the will of God. This state is to be experienced individually someday by the avid aspirant if God wills for you.
Today on 26th April 2015 afternoon, as I am writing and summarizing my inner world’s new benign visions and panoramas, I am yet again seeing the grace opening up and reaching me. The channel is built and words begin to simply pour incessantly like a stream of cascading rays of bright white light on me. A sacred, wonderful bridge is made between us and the mind connection impeccable. It is an indication that the Heavenly Masters wish to connect with some people living on the Earth, they have made me their intermediary channel in order to teach us pronounced, ancient knowledge. Consequently, our inside world becomes far more holy and sanctified. The states of our consciousness should alter effectively in this holy process of transformation.
Part A
Deep enlightenment in solitary moments!
This small portion of the post is filled with grave enlightenment and absolute consciousness. It is contemplative in nature and should be probed well, enough time must be spent in reflection and deep thinking.
As Swami Kartikeyan’s birth took many centuries ago, the environment was very quiet and tranquil in those ancient days. Resembling Lord Shiva his spiritual guru and father, he spent a lot of his time in quietude and silence. He observed and researched about the formation and development as well as the power of his own thoughts in greatest details in that peaceful environment.
His instructions and wisdom for us-
Water has inherent electricity, power inside it. Similarly, man’s thoughts also have energy embedded in it depending on the will power, type of actions done and the nature of the person.
A thought is born in the mind. When it is born, it is like a small bubble about to burst. If one does not pursue or carry forward that positive thought for it to manifest, then it dies out.
If the thought-bubble is applied with the will of the mind of the doer, it starts to enlarge gradually and becomes large enough with the power of the will and the power inherent in the thought itself in the first place. Sankalpa Shakti, Thought Power is a power given to man by God for good intents and reasons.
We must observe our thoughts in order to make ourselves in charge of their strength. And also, to keep in check the tremendous force that they can give us especially the negative, weak and damaging thoughts. Negative force arising out of the negative and weak thoughts should be negated completely.
The mind has the power of God but we believe that it is I who is the doer. This type of situation and act is delusion and must be avoided strongly since we are liable to entangle ourselves in the stream of energy in the mind inconclusively. Beware of this ego and deception.
Somehow, some rishis have gone too far in this field to analyze their thoughts too deeply which is unnecessary and excessive. My advice and caution are that you must not sit alone to watch yourselves as mere observers for too long and for a prolonged period of time because you shall get ensnared in your ego; subsequently the ego takes too long to get rid of. Ego is very difficult to eradicate and thinking obsessively about oneself is no answer to its riddance.
Accordingly, I discovered to my sheer delight that Swami Kartikeyan’s mastery is that he has done tremendous research on the inception of the thought, (Sankalpa) life of a thought and the working capacity of the thought in a human being.
And I concluded that whatever we think and whatever our thoughts are, they are absolutely bound to manifest one day somewhere in future.
Part B
My conversations about Thought Power with the divine Holy Master Swami Kartikeyan on 04.04.15 on the Lunar Eclipse and the following day:-
Me– “Most revered Swamiji, can you please teach me today how to make my thoughts more powerful?”
The reply can to me in chaste Hindi and I have translated the whole message in English, the original message comes in the end.
Swami Kartikeyan- “Your mind is very strong and calm presently, yet to make it more extra ordinary than it is, you should again practice these two things- silence and peacefulness of mind- maun aur shanti.
First of all, you and others must practice and try to bring about more depth in your meditations because of which the mind will become very peaceful. And by maintaining silence, the power of mind and intellect shall increase because of which you shall be able to go deeper in your meditations. In this way your thought power’s boundary shall widen and the power of mind shall increase day by day in order to become extra ordinary.
My sweet daughter, I bless you today that whatever you decide and think with a positive mind, all that shall manifest in this world with time.”
From here, his focus shifted from me to others, then on the world at large and how to bring to an end the multiple woes and ceaseless sufferings of humanity.
Swami Kartikeyan- “Your mind’s thoughts arrive in the sky which I am able to receive. I have so many powers given to me by God that you cannot even know. Out of many of them, one is the ability to read everybody’s thoughts present in their mind. If somebody tries to betray me or my daughter, I quickly forewarn her for the reason that she does not discriminate on the basis of higher or lower, less or more. Her mind is extremely one pointed, clean and pure. She has dedicated her whole life and all her breath for the Divine and for us.
In this era there are more sins and less love, charity, compassion, empathy and brotherhood because of which everybody’s lives are incomplete, very miserable and declining. Until man rebuilds ancient values- truth, peace, empathy and good conduct, the society cannot be re-established.
Whenever sins exceed on Earth, God re-establishes that society through a few people. The life of such people is very hard for the reason that the evil souls are fearless and cruel although their end is very painful and dreadful. But that does not mean that we should be afraid of them. You must know that we have an answer to every problem. We bring about changes in those places with our powers in society if those people so desire.
When any man decides to wash off some of his sins or to exhaust all his or her sins, at that time I and other Beings who reside in the sky as Eternal Light, Nitya Jyot are most joyous. The reason is the world becomes lighter, the air becomes little clean and the number of good deeds become higher than sins for some time on Earth. If you all also grasp this principle and emulate it in your life, God and Mother Earth shall bestow their grace on you.
In this pursuit, our dear daughter will help you. She has silenced her mind in which there is no deception of this world or the deception of the mind. With our grace she has conquered all Maya, the delusion. She has so much power in her thought that when she resolves for some being’s welfare, it materializes for sure. She is graced with exceptional patience, peace, love and service. She has never asked anything from us except that the grace bestowed on her should endure.
When she goes to sleep, we see her as a small light from far off skies. Even then her mind is unfilled and in void, and at that time through our mind we send her the will and intention of God and what God wants us to do through her. Since she is like an empty vessel, she receives our directed thoughts without any hindrance. In her daily life, apart from sustaining herself and serving people there is nothing else because of which she is very dear to all of us. She relinquished all her wants, deep desires, anger, ego and greed long time back. You must also bring to an end all these harmful things so that you are one with us and we become like one unified ether or sky.
In primitive times, God union was attained in this manner only. There were hardly any middle men. The mind was united with God straightway and that resulted in God realization promptly. However, it will be hard now as the human population is in a great number, people’s consciousness is filled with materialistic notions and wealth is worshiped more than God and truth. Then again, we have initiated a new start to bring about transformations in the society and for a new era in which maximum people may live in happiness and satisfaction.
Inculcate simplicity, peace, contentment and purity in your lives in abundance and that will make your lives happy and your mind will be weightless. You will be able to get speedy triumph in uniting your mind with your Guru and God.
With a pure heart, honest aim and selfless motivation come to our sweet daughter. She will quickly release you from the bondage of your delusion and will provide you devices to commune with us directly and that will free you from meandering in future lives. You shall get repose and truth and you shall be free from your sins.
Her time is very precious and she is always in need of it for the reason that whatever responsibility, service and mission are given to her, she embraces them and eagerly accomplishes them very fast. For possessing this quality, she is much-loved by me and others and we are promoting her swiftly. Such unprecedented God realization like hers in one life has never happened before in man’s history and will never again be possible in future. The reason is that by doing so, the balance of both body and mind breaks and they fall apart, it is a very tough task. On the other hand, because of her possessing exceptional will power, the grace of Gurus is upon her. Because of her extra ordinary love and brotherhood for humanity, she has acquired this special place for herself in human history. It shall always remain vacant as nobody ever can fill it up, it is unprecedented.
All of you utilize your time very judiciously and redeem yourself as fast as possible. Pursue your welfare and self-improvement merely. Any opportunity in which man can know the values of life and truth is never possible because in every life man gets deluded and creates such bad deeds that the next many lives are spent in expressing the net result of those previous unwarranted deeds. All of you come out of this quagmire of delusion with our help and consent and after recovering from all kinds of unhappiness, live a life in which there is happiness of God, peace, restfulness and bliss and service to humanity.
Out of you whoever wishes to retrieve, they should on their own come forward and hold our daughter’s hand, have a desire and should have a strong will to work unrelentingly on oneself. Rest of the work is ours. As the work load of our daughter is in surplus, she requires solitude and rest and hence there will be no new article for four weeks. You all get together and meet, remove your doubts and make your mind and your resolutions strong. After that we all will take you to higher skies, extreme pinnacles of consciousness will be brought into light for you which in turn will give you extreme delight and bliss. In the meanwhile, you should secure your knowledge, make your mind robust and make your body strong which will be very useful for you to unite with God in future. We shall always be your guardians. We shall always tell you the path of truth because of which you will be able to walk alone on that lit path.
May God always bring joy, peace, prosperity, health and stillness of mind. May you always rise and elevate your society. Regenerate a new order in your society which will give joy and happiness to all of you.
I bless all of you. Together you all should initiate a new beginning by which the world can be re-established. The wheel of time is moving. The light rays from the Realm of Truth, Satya Lok are going to fall powerfully for some time; you all must take full advantage of this.
From today you should begin a new life in which you decrease your requirements of articles, wealth, rest and recreation so that you do not expend so much time. Do not be proud of yourself. Give your time to others. At present there are far more evil souls than good souls in society. When you reduce your tendency to indulge, then from inside you shall get rest and repose, you shall procure ecstasy. Whenever you remember me to connect and unite with God, I shall arrive by your side. I have taught you Prabhutva gyan, very blazing knowledge which you must treasure and preserve.”
स्वामी कार्तिकेयन – “तुम्हारा मन तो बहुत मजबूत और शांत है फिर भी उसे और असाधारण बनाने के लिए तुमको दो बातों का पुनर अभ्यास करना पड़ेगा। वो है – मौन और शांति।
सबसे पहले तुम सबको गहन ध्यान लगाने का अभ्यास करना पड़ेगा जिससे मन शांत होने लगेगा। और मौन करने से मन और बुद्धि दोनों की शक्तियाँ बढ़ जायेंगी जिससे तुम और ध्यान में गहरे उतर जाओगे। इस प्रकार तुम्हारी विचार शक्ति की सीमा बढ़ जाएगी जिससे तुम्हारे मन की शक्तियाँ बढ़ते बढ़ते एक दिन असाधारण हो जाएँगी। मेरी प्यारी पुत्री, आज मैंने तुमको आशीर्वाद दिया कि जो कुछ तुम संकल्प करोगी, वो अवश्य पूर्ण होगा समय आने पर।
तुम्हारे अंदर की मन की भावना आकाश में आ जाती है जिसको मैं सुन सकता हूँ। मेरे पास ईश्वर की दी हुई इतनी शक्तियाँ हैं जिसका तुमको कभी ज्ञान भी नहीं हो सकता है। उनमें से एक है सबके मन को पढ़ने की शक्ति। यदि कोई भी मुझसे या मेरी बेटी से धोखा करता है तो मैं उसे तुरंत आगाह कर देता हूँ क्योंकि वो किसी के लिए मन में ऊँच नीच या भेदभाव नहीं करती है। उसका मन बहुत अधिक सटीक, निर्मल और पवित्र है। उसने अपना सारा जीवन और प्रत्येक श्वास ईश्वर और हमारे निमित्त कर रखा है।
इस युग में पाप अधिक और शांति, प्रेम, दान, दया, सद्भावना और भाईचारा कम है जिसके कारण सबके जीवन अधूरे, अत्यंत दुखी और नीचे को जाने वाले हैं। जब तक मनुष्य पुरातन मूल्यों का पुनःनिर्माण नहीं करेगा, समाज में सत्य, शांति, सद्भाव, और सदाचार स्थापित नहीं हो सकते।
जब जब धरती पर पाप बहुत अधिक बढ़ने लगता है तब ईश्वर उस समाज की पुनर्स्थापना कुछ लोगों द्वारा करवाते हैं। ऐसे लोगों का जीवन बहुत अधिक कठिन होता है क्योंकि दुरात्माएँ निडर और निर्मम होती हैं। उनका अंत बहुत दुखदाई और विभत्स्य होता है। परन्तु इसका यह अर्थ नहीं है कि हम उनसे डर जाएँ। तुम्हें यह ज्ञात होना चाहिए कि हर मुश्किल का तोड़ हमारे पास है। हमारी शक्तियों द्वारा हम उन स्थानों पर परिवर्तन लाते हैं यदि वहाँ के नागरिक चाहें तो।
जब कोई मनुष्य अपने पाप धोने की, उन्हें समाप्त करने की इच्छा रखता है तो मुझे और मेरे साथ रहने वाले आकाश के नित्य ज्योत को सबसे अधिक प्रसन्नता होती है। क्योंकि इससे सृष्टि हल्की हो जाती है, हवा थोड़ी साफ हो जाती है और पुण्य की मात्रा कुछ समय के लिए बढ़ जाती है। यदि तुम सब भी इस बात को समझकर अमल करोगे तो ईश्वर और धरती माता तुम्हारा कल्याण करेंगी।
इस कार्य में तुम्हें हमारी प्रिय बेटी सहायता करेगी। उसने भी मन की मौन धारण कर रखी है जिसमें सृष्टि की माया का, मन की माया का कोई प्रभाव नहीं पड़ता। उसने सारी माया को हमारी कृपा से जीत लिया है। उसके संकल्प में इतनी शक्ति है कि वो यदि किसी प्राणी या जीव के लिए शुभ संकल्प करती है तो वह फलीभूत अवश्य हो जाता है। उसके मन में अत्यधिक धैर्य, शांति, प्रेम और सेवा भाव है। उसने आज तक हमसे कुछ नहीं मांगा है, केवल कृपा बनी रहे मांगती है।
जब वो सो जाती है, हमें वो दूर आकाश से नीचे एक छोटे प्रकाश के रूप में दिखती है। उसका मन तब भी शून्य में होता है और हम उस समय उसको ईश्वर की बताई हुई बातें, ईश्वर की इच्छाएँ, और मर्जी अपने मन के द्वारा भेज देते हैं। क्योंकि वो एक खाली बर्तन की तरह है, उसे हमारे सारे मन के संकल्प बिना रुकावट के आसानी से पहुँच जाते हैं। उसकी दिनचर्या में अपने शरीर निर्वाह और सेवा के अलावा शेष कुछ भी नहीं होता जिसकी वजह से वह हमें अत्यधिक प्रिय है। उसने अपनी सारी इच्छाओं का, वासनाओं, क्रोध, अहंकार और लोभ का बहुत पहले ही त्याग कर दिया है। तुम भी इन बुराइयों को जल्द से जल्द समाप्त करो जिससे तुम भी हमारी आत्माओं से एक होकर आकाशवत् हो जाओ।
पुराने युग में ईश्वर योग इसी प्रकार लगाया जाता था। बिचौलिए बहुत कम होते थे। सीधा ईश्वर से मन को एक किया जाता था जिससे ईश्वर साक्षात्कार बहुत जल्दी हो जाता था। अब यह कठिन होगा क्योंकि जनसंख्या अधिक है, लोगों की चेतना में माया भरपूर है और माया की ईश्वर और सत्य से अधिक पूजा है। लेकिन हमने एक नई शुरुआत की है, परिवर्तन करने की, समाज को बदलने की और एक नए युग लाने की जिससे अधिक से अधिक लोग सुखी हो सके।
अपने जीवन में सादगी, शांति, संतोष और निर्मलता भरपूर मात्रा में लाओ जिससे जीवन सुखी हो जाएगा और मन हल्का। तुम्हें ईश्वर से, गुरु से योग लगाने में भी जल्दी सफलता मिलेगी।
तुम पवित्र मन से, सच्चे इरादे से और बिना किसी स्वार्थ के हमारी प्यारी बेटी के पास आओ। वो तुम्हें शीघ्र ही तुम्हारी माया के बंधनों से छुड़ाकर, हमसे सीधा योग लगाने की युक्ति बता देगी जिससे तुम्हें आगामी जीवनों में कहीं भी भटकना नहीं पड़ेगा। तुम्हें विश्राम और सत्य मिलेगा तुम अपने सारे पापों से जल्द ही मुक्त हो जाओगे।
उसका समय बहुत अमूल्य है और उसको समय की सदा आवश्यकता पड़ती है क्योंकि उसे जो भी सेवा दी जाती है, वह प्रेम से उसे आलिंगन करके तत्परता से जल्द से जल्द पूरी कर देती है। इसी गुण होने के कारण वह मेरी और सबकी अत्यधिक प्रिय है और हम उसे जल्द से जल्द बहुत उन्नति कराते जा रहे हैं। आज तक मनुष्य के इतिहास में किसी भी मनुष्य ने एक जीवन में इतनी अधिक आत्म उन्नति नहीं की है और ना ही भविष्य में संभव है। ऐसा करने से शरीर और मन बिखर जाता है और मनुष्य के मन का संतुलन टूट जाता है। परन्तु हमारी पुत्री की अद्भुत इच्छा शक्ति, गुरु कृपा और सारे प्राणियों के लिए प्रेम और सद्भावना व्याप्त होने के कारण उसने यह स्थान प्राप्त किया है जो सदा रिक्त रहेगा। इस स्थान को कोई दुबारा प्राप्त नहीं कर सकेगा।
इसलिए तुम सब जल्द से जल्द समय का सदुपयोग करो और केवल अपना उद्धार करो। ऐसा अवसर मनुष्य को बार बार प्राप्त नहीं होता है जिसमें वो जीवन के सत्य के मूल्यों को जान सके। यह कोई मामूली, साधारण बात नहीं है, बल्कि अत्यधिक कठिन है। क्योंकि हर जन्म में मनुष्य भ्रमित हो जाता है और अनेक प्रकार के दुष्कर्म करता है जिसका परिणाम बहुत जन्मों में उतरता है। तुम सब इस माया जाल से बाहर आओ हमारी सहायता से और सब दुखों से निवृत्त होकर ईश्वरीय सुख, शांति, विश्राम और आनंद में अपना शेष जीवन व्यतीत करके मानव सेवा करो।
तुम में से जो कोई अपना उद्धार करना चाहता है वह स्वयं ही हमारी बेटी का हाथ पकड़े, स्वयं इच्छा करे और अथक परिश्रम करने के लिए मनोबल स्थापित करे। शेष कार्य हमारा है। इतना अधिक कार्य करने से हमारी पुत्री को एकांत और विश्राम की आवश्यकता पड़ती है इसलिए चार सप्ताह के लिए कोई लेख नहीं होगा। केवल आपस में तुम सब मेल-जोल करो, अपनी शंकाओं का निवारण करो और अपने मन और मन के निश्चय को दृढ़ करो। उसके बाद हम सब मिलकर तुम सब को ऊँचे ऊँचे आकाश, परम सीमाओं की चेतनाओं के दर्शन कराएँगे जिससे तुम्हें परम सुख और आनंद होगा। तब तक तुम अपनी विद्या की सुरक्षा करो, मन को सबल करो और बलशाली शरीर को तैयार करो जो योग में बहुत अधिक सहायक होने वाला है। हम सदा तुम्हारी निगरानी करेंगे जिससे तुम स्वयं उस प्रकाशित मार्ग पर अकेले ही चलोगे।
ईश्वर तुम्हारे जीवन में सुख, शांति, समृद्धि, स्वास्थ्य, और नीरवता लाए। तुम सदा ऊपर उठो और अपने समाज को अपने साथ उन्नत करो। ऐसे समाज की संरचना करो जिससे तुम सबको शांति और आनंद प्राप्त हो।
मैं तुम सबको आशीष देता हूँ। तुम सब मिलकर एक नई शुरुआत करो जिसमें सृष्टि की पुनर्स्थापना हो। काल का पहिया घूम रहा है। सत्य लोक की किरणें अधिक प्रचंड आएँगी कुछ समय तक जिसका तुम सबको भरपूर लाभ उठाना चाहिए।
आज से तुम अपने जीवन की नई शुरुआत करो जिसमें वस्तुओं की, धन की, आराम की और अपने ऊपर इतना ना समय और आराम लगाने की आवश्यकता पड़े। घमंड कम करो। दूसरों के लिए अधिक समय दो जिससे यह सृष्टि देवताओं की बन जाए। वर्तमान में असुर अधिक हैं और सुर बहुत कम। जब तुम अपने अंदर से भोग विलास की प्रवृत्ति घटाओगे, तो तुम्हारे अंदर से आराम और विश्राम होगा, आनंद उत्पन्न होगा। जब जब तुम मुझे याद करोगे ईश्वर योग लगाने के लिए, मैं तुम्हारे पास प्रकट हो जाऊँगा। मैंने तुमको प्रभुत्व ज्ञान दिया है जो बहुत कीमती है जिसे तुम संभालकर रखो।”
Note please- As per the direction of Swami Kartikeyan, I am publishing this post on the eve of the Samadhi day of Swami Dayananda Shaligram of Ganeshpuri. It falls on 27th April every year and a ceremony and bhandara, mass feeding is held in Ganeshpuri where his Samadhi temple is made.
