Dear friends, it is Down Time. The last post issued was on 3rd June ’14 . Since then no posts have been published because there are already many serious posts published earlier and they need to be revised in depth. There are many new blog followers; some prepared some not so prepared. Many are at the very basic level while others are about to take off on a flight of their own. So it is a very good idea to sit back and see what this blog has to offer to all of us.

The posts on topics such as Consciousness or Chetna Shakti has commenced recently on FB. Excerpts from important articles are going to be picked up for some time and those posts will be read again in this way. Absorption and churning of those articles is very important.

A delightful beginning has taken place recently where the serious people are visiting many  holy sites on their own to clear off much of their karmic baggage after reading my spiritual journey when I made  trips to those holy places. Pondicherry, Parangipettai, Palani, Dakshineshwar, Dwarka, Somnath, Kumarpukar, Jairambati, Dwarahat, Varanasi and Ganeshpuri are those places mainly. There are also some who have gone to other places also. I feel extremely happy to see your enthusiasm and the will to overcome your past and renewed energies seems to have seeped in the blog as well the blog followers. Some say that they were inspired by me and my determination and hence they are motivated. I am very grateful to God and the readers for it. May I ask God that more people understand the value of walking on the foot prints of so many highly advanced spiritual giants who have put their holy feet for centuries on those highly charged places of spiritual value in India? May those people too have the inner urge to rectify their past and seek those precious vibrations of great spiritual value!

A silent revolution is taking place although there are no prescribed norms and regulations from my side and yet on their own some people are walking quietly on the sands of the footprints of lofty Yogis and Mahayogis and saints and sages of India’s past heritage. I have only the enlightened Gurus and God to thank because such acts are performed by very few people that we know of. Most of the people are too busy as they very engrossed in their daily life. It requires resolute and firm determination to walk the path of your convictions. Nonetheless, too much is always too little on this long path of eternal bliss and peace of God. So take one firm step at one time and seek God every day in every breath.

Wish to end up this small page of some information with this poem which I wrote on FB some time back.

Lasting friendship!

Deep within lives my mate, my dearest friend,
My guide, my most favourite and most beloved,
When I forget the world and severe ties with it and lose myself,
I find you waiting there for me silently and patiently,
Thus I come back to you, your abode within me.

I find you there in the most blissful state,
Your love that oozes and flows into my heart,
Your love so refreshing, so serene, so endearing,
That nothing in the world compares with it anywhere,
If only somebody could possibly dive there to know what I so genuinely speak!

Your presence so firm, your existence so eternal,
Whenever I come in your contact, the lacklustre outer world is dissolved,
A world that has no power to capture my imagination anymore,
For what you give me is so incomparable and so strongly desirable,
A sense of complete being, a sense of timelessness and eternity and flawless enduring continuity!

Please do keep coming back to me amidst the mundane and amidst the regular,
Please be with me when the most important task is in my hands,
Please seek me when I am doing my daily duties,
Please hover around me when there is a looming danger,
Please watch me and sleep with me at night, where with you there is no fear!

My mind’s focus is never blurred; my eyes never tire to wait until you arrive again,
With you immortality seems natural, bliss my nature and peacefulness my natural state,
My Soul appears to be eternal and I seem to belong to the pure Immortal world,
The ebb and flow of the constantly changing world is unnatural,
As behind all this magical game, it is You who will outlast the whole thing!

I have found a friend in you who shall never separate from me,
I love your unconditional, permanent and appealing friendship,
I have grieved; I have faced indefinite calamities and tragedies,
I have endured so many challenging circumstances in many bodies and incarnations,
And have found you at last my most revered, most pious and my most treasured beloved Friend!!

Part A

My dear everybody, the last post on one’s resolute will power titled ‘Ichcha Shakti, our power to will-I was extemporaneous in nature and straight from the heart and so is this. Before I leave for my next important travel programme, I am convinced that I must pick up from the last post and continue further because it is essential. Some responses came from Facebook also where I had only posted Part A from it. Part B could be little foggy for many people and so it was left out. I am replying to one question from Facebook on Spiritinlife blog because the public would not like to dive so deep into the details of Spirit matters. Moreover, I wished to share this information with my other blog readers also so that it satisfies their queries in addition to the person who has asked me. The question was this-

Didi, even Rama & Krishna are called Avatars. Why is Babaji called Mahavatar by Sri Yoganandaji?

To start answering to this question, I am first quoting from an older post with just one specific paragraph-

Babaji again went back to tell me more about himself. He divulged about his tapas and intense spiritual practices done. “After the initiation of the highest level of Kriya, my body became unconquerable and invincible. My senses became extremely acute and I could no longer bear to hear the sound of clatter and any noisy words. Therefore, I decided to meditate in a place where there would be no disturbing sounds and I headed for the Himalayas on foot. I found a cave in a place where there was no human soul and I meditated in freezing climate without any cloth over me to test my abilities. Once assured, I offered all my accomplishments to God and asked him to now let me exit the world at the age of just fourteen! God’s answer was, “Give me this body; I shall use it for a purpose that no one has done before. I shall accomplish with it that no one has accomplished before.” I only bowed in front of that Divine Light and uttered, “It is yours.”

From-The state of Super Consciousness-II

Now the question that why has Shri Babaji given the title Mahavatar by Paramhansa Yoganandji?

The answer is that Shri Mahavatar Babaji attained phenomenal spiritual success at a very tender age of just fourteen and he gave all his tapas to God and has been serving God without any break for eighteen plus centuries. He has made himself immortal. He will not relinquish his mortal body unless this era of Kaliyug slides in Satya Yuga. His tapasya is unparalleled, it is unprecedented and hence he earned the exclusive title Mahavatar. There may be a few more comparisons but this is the main reason for his being conferred a unique title.

 Part B

About a week back, in my day when I contemplated and meditated, I received some important information from Shri Mahavatar Babaji via mental telepathy. Although I am quite reluctant in talking about myself so often, I have nonetheless no choice in being discreet and quiet any longer. I am asked by them to share many of my special experiences and milestones with everybody on the blog and I am only obeying them. I think with conviction that Babaji must be having some reason to be doing this so often. I always comply because since I believe that disobedience towards my enlightened Guru is being disrespectful.

In my morning spontaneous meditation one day lately,  I was sliding deeper and further in the depths of calmness. The sound of Om came, resonated and it disappeared. I had greeted it with a very humble heart. And then, there was no sound whatsoever inside my mind. I sat in this quiet state for quite a many peaceful moments. In this quietening process, the mind became empty of all mental sounds coming even from others that echo in the background; they are always floating and embedded around us in our aura as others are thinking of us and speaking in their minds. So many people try to reach us all the time in the physical or mental worlds. Such mental waves affect our ultimate peace. But now, all possible subtle and very subtle mental sounds and thought waves from all over were missing and a state of nothing arrived. Nothing.

After a long time I was at last able to catch hold of this phenomenal thoughtless phenomenon. I was watching it without any involvement like a non-participant. In Hindi or Sanskrit or in a yogic language it is referred to as ‘nirav shanti’, soundless peace of mind. I was in a state of existence where the sense of body and mind first loosened and eventually broke off. In this very moment of thoughtlessness, I was in a state of absolute non- entity, a state of pure being. I was in a state of absolute rest and quietude called ‘poorna vishram’, complete rest. It is a state of absolute purity and innocence. I was in a state of uncovered Truth, untainted Reality called Brahma…..

Later, after a few seconds a new vision emerged from within. The Earth was in front of me with plenty of green foliage and lot of peace.  It was completely green from top and all over. There was only one inhabitant on the Earth and that was me. I was relishing the serenading peace and very cool air coming from thick foliage.I had no urge of having some people around me because it was very peaceful in that state of being. I rejoiced being alone. After that I envisioned that I was sitting on top of the globe smiling in serenity to myself and meditating on Earth top in the Lotus posture! My feet were receiving tremendous energies and they were rejuvenating me. I was on top of the world!! My body had no weight and I was feeling totally weightless. Living peacefully in our Atma is a very beautiful state of our being and living there I was experiencing it subtly!

And the symbolic vision of me in a yogic state of peaceful repose on Mother Earth must now wait to materialize in due course of time. So many times symbolic visions and futuristic events that take place in the phenomenal world are first seen in our deep states of mental rest and meditation. This was same.

As the Earth moved out of my vision, I saw Shri Mahavatar Babaji coming near me with his both hands moving fast in the air in a hurry and his face containing a sense of great importance and significance for something. I am yet to fully understand the meaning of his expressions. He came up to to me and told this,” You have a great desire in you to know Atmà. You have known it only because you possessed a great will, you have tremendous Ichcha Shakti. It is a very difficult thing to do in one life.  I want you to write about this experience in your forthcoming article on the blog.”

So with this narration, I wind up this post and wish to first attempt re-living these extra ordinary, very sublime and peaceful experiences. In moments of deep peace and quietude, Atma is known. There will be many noises and disturbances from many sides, they come from the Earth level but I must live some times at least on the level of Sky, in the consciousness of Atma……

Part A

My dear friends, it has been a long time since a new post was issued on the blog. There are two specific reasons for it. Firstly, I realized that I have worked a lot on the blog particularly in the last three years to the extent of being soft on my health. Besides, I wanted that people should read the posts over and over again; there are so many.  And simultaneously, our one more open school on Face Book has been underway. It is christened Life Beautiful. By now it has taken a proper shape and I find some newcomers ready for bigger things. Some of you are taking the benefits of both platforms; the more the merrier! Along with this, some new blog readers are communicating with me after reading various posts and are seeking advice for personal growth. They are being attended to and looking at the various aspects that have started flourishing associated with Spiritinlife, I feel humbled as well as satisfied. I have shrunk the size of my emails to minimal, nonetheless everybody’s needs are addressed to and I see everyone’s development taking place at a fast speed. I believe this must be the aim of Shri Mahavatar Babaji and his community of godly souls. Some of you are also speeding up their progress purposely and are visiting the holy shrines and dynamic spiritual places on their own to grow faster and seeking blessings.

I see clearly that the spiritual energies of a number of saints are at constant work. They are in collusion and commune with me and are sending and relaying various messages for different aspirants so that their progress should be at a reasonably good pace.

Just recently, that is to say a few hours ago as I woke up from a very restful sleep, it was ordained that I leave all other predefined tasks and immediately sit down to write after I have a short period of strong connection with them in meditation. I am complying and my words are just flowing unbrokenly. Tremendous energy I receive from them to do this wonderful task of writing spiritual essays of various topics only when God pronounces.

Part B

Last month I had gone to Bodh Gaya It was one of the most memorable visits that I have made so far. After I returned home from that place, I saw one day in a sublime state that a thick pillar of white Light is ascending from the sky and falling on the Bodhi Tree. Such transcendent encounters are always inspiring and sought by any practicing yogi. It was as if God was trying to say something to me about crucial and important things after I have already returned home. As the Light of God stopped pouring on the Bodhi Tree, I was informed, “Perennial Light is being inducted by God in this place to keep it effusively energized. It is happening because people who visit this place should be facilitated to remove their ignorance, avidya from inside their minds. Specific places on the Earth are being radiated by God’s Light with a specific purpose and this place is blessed by such a prominent feature.

Bodh Gaya has two specialties in fact, that of clearing our sins and broadening our consciousness depending on the size of our vessel.

Just a few seconds later the beam of Light became weak in strength and I was wondering what happened suddenly. I was enlightened further when I learnt that minds that are scattered, weak, or poor in health, in such cases the beam of light gets scattered in blobs around such vessels because those minds are unable to absorb all of the Light.

In contrast I viewed that when the thick beam of Light was falling on strong and enlightened mind, it was penetrating inside it fully. It was proving by itself that if people’s minds are filled with pride, desires, vasanas, and hence filled up with those dense particles and the rays of Light are not able to enter the brain or mind. If the mind is preoccupied with worldly thoughts, we cannot equip ourselves in retaining those rays of Light because it is already engaged in something else.

Part C

Very rarely can I hope to have a darshan or interaction with a very primitive and extremely reclusive divine soul like Shri Murugan Swami or Kartikeyan Swami. I understand that this must be because Shri Bogarnatharji must have blessed me as I have visited Palani in Dec,2013 in spite of poor physical health condition. Or is it because I am doing Shri Babaji’s seva continuously? Well, I have no fixed answer or any idea what happened. But I guess, a sincere yogi’s life has many twists and turns. I attribute this phase of my yogic life to this aspect and reason. For those readers who do not know uptil now, Kartikeyan Swami is in the lineage of Shri Mahavatar Babaji of siddhas or acclaimed yogis of India. He is Lord Shiva’s second son apart from Lord Ganesha. In down South, he is revered profusely and is called by various names such as Murugan Swami, Shanmuga, Kumar Swami, Kartikeyan and so on.

He has appeared before me a couple of times and has caused ripples of exhilaration, because his frequency is impossible to reach. I am at this moment, as I finish my post thinking that after being able to hear the highest frequencies of Om could have enabled me to commune with him at his state of astral existence? Or has Babaji blessed me with this attribute? Well, if leaving out these reasons, then I cannot explain myself with another justification or explanation. To my satisfaction and belief, I think a combination of all these factors empowered me to have the great opportunity to get to know one more fascinating fact about the secreted world of the advanced yogis and alchemists in their immortal states.

Shri Kartikeyan Swami enlightened me by adding something more to my assemblage of spiritual knowledge. Before his advent, I saw bright Light in my inner view. It was very dense and conformed to the fact that indeed his stature is phenomenal.

“A soul suffers in every life because of its own shortcomings. It is born hundreds of times because of vasanas or desires or ahankar or ego.

A good yogi will remove these two great barriers automatically with his or her own desire.

Those who do not listen to their conscience, take endless re-births and prolong their sufferings, mental and spiritual both and do not even know how to bring an end to their own untold misery.

You have taken the shortest time to evolve and blossom and therefore are in bliss and continuous joy.

Those who are now awaking and have woken up after such endless incarnations are still in agony because their awakening is also painful. They will take much longer time to rise up and flourish in the realm of the Spirit. It is because human beings have poor quality of thoughts. It is our Sankalpa or power of thought which will catapult us to doing extraordinary actions in spite of all hurdles or obstacles in Nature in all lives.

It is because of the power of our thoughts that we shall be able to perform those actions which are conducive in realizing our Self.

If the Self is tainted with ego, desires and selfish interests, then the Spirit cannot unfold.

Blessed are those who are forever serving God and the Illumined Souls in uplifting this world.

Blessed are those who are leading a quiet, pious and blissful, holy life.

Blessed are those who are making this Universe more livable for all other living creatures.

Blessed are those who understand that the highest happiness lies in serving the children of God.

Upasana karo apni Atma ki,

 Balidaan, do apne ahankar ki

Kshan, kshan, pal pal nit nayi laharehen

Ishwar ki tumhari ore ayanegi

Yadi mana swachch rakha sada

Sukh bhogoge ati indriyi ananda ka

Ishwar ka ghar sada khula rahega

Jab chaho amrit varsha ko chakh lena

Barasta raheta hai tumhare hi andar

Kewal apne mana ko ati pavitra der hai banane ki……

Translation, though not as poetic as it was in Hindi.

Worship your  own Atma

Give sacrifice of your ego

Each and every moment, new waves of

God shall appear near you

If you keep your mind ever clean

You shall gain joy that is beyond senses

The house of God shall be ever open for you

You can drink the flowing nectar

Which cascades always inside you

It is just a matter of making your mind pious and clean……”

In such meditative times, as my mark of gratitude and thanksgiving to all the Illumined Masters who are constantly helping us to alleviate our sufferings and mental misery, I got up to light incense sticks of Ketaki flowers for Shri Kartikeyan Swami in particular. It is with this intent that may we all bloom in Self, our Atma and spread such enticing fragrance as that of Ketaki in the world that we live in!

Guru Brahma, Gurur Vishnu………

A Note for all of you-

For the convenience of all readers, I am making my profile on FaceBook public. Kindly keep communications only as much as required so as to save our precious time. It is continuation of Spiritinlife and is not being used to socialize at all.

Regarding my articles, I would appreciate that you do not offer these posts to others or publicize them unnecessarily for the reason that they are extremely pious and exquisite and are being issued timely with the sole objective of propagation of ancient, old forgotten, least practised theology and teachings. They are not meant for mental satisfaction or open public discussions. They are for you if you are considering yourself a seeker, a devotee or a yogi and wish to dedicate yourself for your Soul improvement. Please do not share with or involve my profile in creating literature which brings down the level and standard of Spiritinlife and thus losing its objectives in the long run.

If you need any support, advice or clearing of doubts you are always welcome but with all norms of a learner and a teacher in place and intact. I appreciate your co-operation and consideration.

Thank you.

Gazing at the Sun rising with abated breath is my cherished passion. I have seen the Sunrise many times in Pondicherry but capturing the whole great event with a camera lens was not possible due to some or the other hitch. In the past three years whether I went to Puri or Pondicherry or Kanya Kumari, all eastern parts of India where the Ocean provides us the whole horizon, due to bad weather, taking pictures of the complete ceremony was never possible. Every time there was something missing. If the weather was good, sometimes floating clouds would block the view as it happened in Kanya Kumari and the variety of colours and shades would get camouflaged..

Persistence pays. When I least expected, the best happened by God’s intervention. I could see the best Sunrise in the eastern part of India so far. It was a memorable day. It would not be an exaggeration if I say that Sunrise at Varanasi was the most spectacular Sunrise I ever saw so far in my life! What splendid moments! What a Rising it was!! Waves of warm energy arising and tingling in the body as the Sun erupted suddenly and then ascended so quickly in the sky!

We reached the Dashashwamedh ghat at dot 5.30 am with our cameras and an unbiased mind.

The sky and Ganga water were very calming, lovely pink and lavender every where. 

All eyes set on the semi circle, inverted pink halo over the land, so much energy emitted by the yet to show Solar body

After a wait of more than 10 or 15 minutes, we get to see a small dot of the Sun

When we brought our boat back to the ghat after seeing Sunrise from a point, another memorable spectacle…. Moon near an ancient temple. Sun was on east side and the Moon on the western side. Humbly prostrated to the two heavenly bodies made by God and an integral part of our very existence…..

Golden lights from several sources from the ghat falling on shaking and moving waters created magic, a very beautiful sight to see!

When we left the boat, we decided to take a short walk on the sprawling ghat. It was now warm and the sunshine recharged us. 

Some interesting scenes when there was a little humour and a bit of laughter too…….

Self Realization is an internal action to perform, externals not needed please!

Varanasi ghats are very, very active more so Dashashwamedha Ghat. Thousands of people doing their own thing uninterested in other person’s preoccupation. Nonetheless, there is something common amongst all. In some way or the other people do remember God, their own Gods in their own peculiar way.

No one knows since when these river banks have been active but for sure the Rig Vedas and other Vedas must have originated from here in search of Truth. Some rishis meditated enough, prayed enough until God reciprocated in the form of hyms.

Throughout all the madness in the sea of people, I was humming these lines  on the ghats which I heard in the television series Bharat Ek Khoj some years back-

Srishti se pehle sat nahin thaa, asat bhi nahin
Antariksh bhi nahin, aakaash bhee nahin thaa.
Chhipaa thaa kyaa, kahaan, kisne dhaka thaa?
Us pal to agam, atal jal bhi kahaan thaa……

Sanskrit lines

नासदासीन्नोसदासीत्तादानीं नासीद्रजो नो व्योमापरो यत |

किमावरीव: कुहकस्यशर्मन्नम्भ: किमासीद्गहनं गभीरं ||

This first stanza is in Sanskrit (Rig Veda, Book 10, Hymn 129, also known as Nasadiya Sukta)

https://archive.org/details/SristeSePheleSongDoordharshan

 

After we saw whatever we could at the river banks, we set out to other important places. 

We went to touch the Lotus feet of Shri Lahiri Mahashayaji. His house is still there but no one lives in it. My another wish finally fulfilled.

 

 Ma Anandmayi’s Ashram in one corner of the city.

Saw this bloom just before we found the ashram after a little bit of search. This is a hospital-Ma Anandamayi hospital.

The inmates were very nice to us. We were even asked to go and visit the second floor of the ashram. Very thankful to the ashramites. The ashram also has a Kanyapeeth or school for young girls who will be inducted as Brahmacharinis in future.

My view from top……

A memorable visit, Grace unfolding at every step. Thank you God.

22.04.14.

My post has finalized around 10.45 pm.But I have decided to publish this post at Sunrise tomorrow. It would be such a wonderful time to read it at that calming and spiritual time!

At Sunset today, I wrote one poem which was posted on Face Book. It does not have a link and hence I decided to paste it on the same post so that all the readers who do not have FB profiles can read it. I am definite that there will be something for each one of us. Agreed, that this photo gallery has become quite big but so has our divine family.

Time to pray!

——————————–

Sunrise and Sunset are favourable times to pray and plead,
To the Divine Father and Mother and to our beloved Thee.
Catapult your innermost requests and appeals and urges,
To that One, holding you with its tender, imperceptible arms and glare.
For that Power and Dynamism shall start embarking
Towards your inner self and your eyes shall open from deep sleep!

Wake up to know that praying is utmost important,
For our belligerent soul and sleepy mind.
Whenever calmness overpowers you, in those times,
Quickly catch hold of that Benevolent Being,
Who is eternally awake and forever free!
Whenever you become a child and He your Guardian,
Remember that you shall always be attended to whatever it is!

Actions we must perform which are benign and beneficial,
For deliverance, for redemption and for our penance.
Actions performed with God in the centre and I on the fringes,
Shall always return with auspiciousness, hope and every goodness.
Aspire to transform yourself and pray to become one such God’s child,
Who shall always perform just those actions,
Which shall arouse everywhere the Presence of that Ever present Being!

Redemption, transformation, deliverance, pardon and pleading,
Should be our daily reflections, prayers and devotion.
Our inner bright Light has been shrouded much too long,
With darkness, dimness, sluggishness and unceasing hibernation.
We are too lazy to remove the dark shroud which was worn by us willingly,
Are we not too tired wearing that heavy robe which is contagious and murky?

Those blessed souls who live their days and nights and live in God’s radiant love and Light,
Call us so many times to return to our real house and Garden of Eden.
Prayers are those moments when they await lovingly to hear, 
At least one little faint murmur or a small voice that invokes the Divine for inspiration and deliverance.
If you invoke, if your urge, if you request humbly,
To free your bonded soul and sluggish and bereft mind,
Guaranteed you shall be heard in the corridors of the Heavenly Father’s House and His Divine family!!

Pray with humility, pray with devotion, pray with greatest faith, pray with heart’s flood gates flung wide open undyingly.
Pray with sincere fervour, pray with submission and, 
Pray with continuous intense calling and pray with simplicity.
Pray with invocation, pray with all your attention,
Pray for your deliverance, pray for your complete transformation. 
And pray in heart’s absolute silence till the time when you disappear and arrives His brilliant Presence!!!

 

Background

Two posts within less than twenty four hours!? Yes.

Some of you asked me in my absence from the blog when will the next post be out. I had no answer.  I was merely floating as per God’s will and taking things as they came.

Yesterday, I was by some means asked to submit the post before midnight certainly by Swami Dayananda Shaligram. It was expected of me to submit a new post before midnight even if I thought that I needed more time. I never like to forego any directive by my Gurus because I know each word that I receive from them has tremendous power, reason and purpose. I posted Sankalp Shakti, the power of thought-I in the nick of time though I wished to retire last night.  In that assigned job and steadfast endeavour, because of lack of time I could not add Part D.  There was a lot of explanation from my side on many aspects in response to many mails and activities that are taking place between some readers and me. Something was let unexplained I knew. However, when I got a response from one reader from Kerala around 10.30 am today in reference to the post published barely twelve hours ago, I was stunned. I was electrified to see that my thoughts have reached those people who were alert and attuned. I was telling her many things mentally, I was guiding her from inside and she got it!

Without taking prior permission from Rakhie, I am publishing her mail so that she reads her very elaborate answer on the blog with full explanations. By sharing her mail others will also learn. She is very new on the blog, very young in age yet she has been very understanding all this while. Assuming that she must be a student or a young employee somewhere, and she lives very far, I excluded her in my group mail wondering if she should be put on the fast track or not. To my very sweet surprise, she has shown so much maturity in grasping the given messages and therefore I have decided to teach her more in detail in this blog post with all my delight and affection. She deserves it. Her reply will be a blog post because I will get a lot of scope for a long explanation on a subject which has not been taught or revealed before to many of you, rather all of you on this blog.

Some have expressed a desire that I should give a discourse also so that the recordings can be heard again many times for things to seep in. Shahid, is this what you have envisioned for hastening your learning and mentioned to me in your mail? You can record this post in your voice and re-run it several times. I have decided that this post will be in the form of a discourse or speech anyway, something I have not attempted before but looks fascinating. As long as the learners are gaining tremendously, any method is a good method. So we will give a new form to our post for freshness and also adapt ourselves to new learning methods. At the same time, everybody will be addressed in one go and the purpose of mass communication will be served also. There is one more reason for a shift in writing style. It is to make you more attentive, alert and self-reliant.

 Dear Sarika Amma,

I have read your present blog. l was waiting for your new post. l can now feel that you are too busy because of increasing  number of readers and their reply. Last when I wrote so many questions and when I read your reply I came to understand that you are busy. After some days I even felt that there is no body to care for me and my spiritual growth since I am a beginner and I cannot escape from this maya with my own effort because I am not as much strong and there is no body for me. Then I prayed so mind became calm. I am surprised today by reading your blog because some of my thoughts were reflected. l now understand that every devotee is given time for self- analysis they should build their strength by themselves by meditating and praying and also finding solution to their problem from inner guidance and all the great gurus are watching them and when appropriate time comes they will come to each one of us. Amma, thank you for your inspiration and guidance. My love and gratitude to all our gurus who are watching us and my love regards to great guru Mahavtar Babaji .

With lots of love
Rakhie

 

My dearest Rakhie,

I am so happy to get your mail today and want to reply at my earliest.

First thing is that you are not alone and there is always somebody sent by God to take care of you. You are God’s child. Even if you are a beginner and have come in a class room actually meant for the advanced seekers, you are most welcome! You will be raised to next grade but do not feel disappointed at all. Just relax.

The only problem is that I have still not got an opportunity to explain at length about the organization of this Open University in the virtual world. I am well aware that there are many more like you who are struggling after joining this High Degree Course as they are a bit puzzled! Most of them have not been able to decipher what they should do now and what is their future because there is no structure or organization here. There is no conglomeration or meetings or sabhas, the Guru wears very normal clothes, has no intention of being popular or number one. In fact, she wishes to be a recluse; had it not been for Divine will, I would have never come out in open. And as you are seeing, there are many people who are seeking my attention and after acknowledging this fact, out of your good nature you wrote to me that you will not disturb me.

You are not disturbing me at all my girl! Agreed, there are many people who are asking for my time and attention as well as energies, but in the physical world this is too time-consuming. So what should be done in such a case?

Therefore, a second kind of option will be taken so that we all are connected, learn daily and make improvements, even so live apart anywhere in the globe, save time and yet be always connected!

Now listen to this carefully everyone –

God is the sole Creator, most powerful, Ever Conscious and Ever Awake. God is most pious, most sacred and most fair to each one of us. God is in the centre of everything that we see in this world and the originator of all Forces.

Depending on our own feelings, our good or bad thoughts, our purity, our good or bad intentions, a response is set off by us. With the will or sankalpa of God, a response is initiated from God’s corresponding force simultaneously. This process transforms in a subtle energy and takes the shape of a thought and is directed towards Shri Mahavatar Babaji if we wish.

The inherent power of God will decide thought’s movement or direction depending on our intention in our sankalpa. If we intended that Shri Babaji should listen to your pledges,  prayers and requests, they will reach Babaji’s mind with the will of God.

He in turn, will answer your needs but as you are not yet ready to mentally connect to him on that subtlest level, he sends signals to me. In my meditation, he speaks to me and directs me what to do next.

Sometimes this may take time to reach me or you because the list of requests is terrific out there! So many thought signals, mental energies floating, crisscrossing each other in the atmosphere!

When I get specific information for specific tasks, I review it. I decode it and then ask for help from God and my Gurus to simplify or make it palatable for the users because we have done both, sins and good acts. Sometimes, the given task of redemption is so bitter to undertake, that a lot of patience and tact is required of me to handle the complicated situation. So I sometimes buy time.

With tremendous patience, faith and peace and courage, I take up many cases one by one so that a complete case history like a doctor maintains in a file is made in my mental sheet in the memory box of each seeker if they belong here. Time to time advice is given depending on his/her prarabdh or destiny, capacity to bear, fortitude, patience and complete trust in me.

What exactly happens in this virtual Open University? What exactly Babaji does for us? What is his role and my role in running this University?

In all other Orders and Organizations if you have noticed, there are structured norms, rules, steps and techniques given to be practiced. They all are good but only to purify or start up and or partly for redemption. Most of the other spiritual practices are normally initiating you so that in some life or far off rebirth, you shall be ready for Moksha.

But Babaji does the last and final act- He breaks us free by first telling us to bear and live our destiny. There is no running away from what we have done at some point of time.

If we are capable of doing that, next tray of challenges awaits us- our sanchit karmas or accumulated over lives actions’ results.

How?

Some of the effects are shared and borne by him and other saints and a fraction is shifted or flung at us. We find this much also uneasy to tolerate and undergo!

He allows us to practice whichever technique we are pursuing and along with that, some temporary tools are given by him as per changing times and needs in this blog or personally by me.

What he advocates the most and that which we have not been able to catch is-

Always do very good deeds. The reason is-it is the power of our actions or deeds that will mould all our lives now and in future.

Therefore, doing good actions, meditating and chanting to calm the mischievous mind, and doing all our worldly duties sincerely are vehemently advocated by Shri Mahavatar Babaji. My blog reflects that very evidently. Read all those posts if you have not done so related to karmas and consciousness.

Why does Shri Mahavatar Babaji not give us prescribed general teachings or techniques for masses?

It is because we all have come from absolutely different backgrounds and pasts and releasing the past negative, detrimental impacts of our actions is more important than anything else. Techniques are available from many reliable places also but Babaji asks us to reconstruct our present life to great heights so that our future is very bright and glorious.

He has also given us the inside story of a successful sadhak with this blog and also revealed all hidden sacred facts so that we do not fall prey to fraud people. Instead, we should do all our familial, social and professional duties sincerely and pray and sit in meditation at home to get all the dynamic results. Such a method will save us so much time and escape confusion, bewilderment and doubts. If you are already following some spiritual organizations or spiritual leaders, please do so. There is no reason to stop going there and doing group meditations or listening to lectures.

To summarize everything now-

There are two levels of human-communications.

Firstly- on the gross level as seen in interviews or meetings with people. The communication takes place with our eyes and ears and the people are physically present. Restriction- limited people can be involved.

Second kind of communication is subtle communication. It takes place with our mind via our thoughts. The purer and sacred the consciousness of any person, the faster the speed of transference between minds. Prayers and meditations will help you in fast development of this type of subtle communication.

In this kind of communication, there are no limits, any number of students can be enrolled in this Open University and there is no time bar or cut off marks. Each one walks at his own pace depending on his or her strength and will power.

Babaji is sitting in the Himalayas mentally guiding a huge number of devotees and sadhaks for their welfare on the basis of his great mental powers. He along with his mandali of chelas are working on so many worldly and spiritual projects silently.

We should try to adapt to the subtle mode of learning for faster, reliable and easy mode of communication.

My dear, I am listening to everybody even when I have not replied formally. The subtle work is all the time going on in the invisible world. So stay guaranteed that you will progress. You have to only learn this new method of learning and eventually master it skillfully. Agreed, this method is novel, unique and unheard of. But all Shrutis and Vedas have been written in this fashion when there was no technology to rely on. It is the most reliable source of gaining spiritual knowledge; Shri Mahavatar Babaji has chosen this method for me and has been successful. You can do the same.

My prayers and meditations are your replies. Learn to fetch your answers in silence and in the quiet workings of God. Sit down quietly many times in a day to listen to your Atma. It has stored all the recordings of the mental waves of Babaji, you and me.

The whole Universe is responding to your doubts, queries and inquisitiveness. Learn to look at things differently, with subtle, inner eyes. The inner sacred vision is most trustworthy.

With this now I end my correspondence. Some of the finest knowledge will arrive a bit later. This is enough for you for today.

We shall always be united with God’s soft and tender touch and presence.

Yours very lovingly

Sarika Amma

And lastly dear friends, did you not grasp that when I pray for all of you for what you mention in your mails or sometimes on phone? God listens to them; you must have got your answers within. When you come and tell me all the intricate problems related to life, I dish out very few solutions. This is because I pray quietly for you all instead. After this God decides based on your inner state of consciousness and purity, and after which the real work starts. I am certain that visible changes are taking place in your current life, make a note.

This is in addition to the fact, that in almost every meditation of mine, a substantial time is devoted from the saints more so by Babaji in imparting me guidance for you all. It  is reflected in my mails and posts. Look inside, be more quiet in heart and mind and read the language of your soul, you will Know That.

The transmission, mental transmission is happening all the times between various minds. If you have softened your heart, made the mind pliable and humble then you are now ready to receive the wireless transmission relays coming straight from Babaji. From his source, emerge grand ideas for us if we have great thought or will power. We receive them in our mind and body and implement it if we are attentive.

Babaji’s style of working is unique. He utilizes the powers of his mind to bring about amiable positive changes in our environment and us. He calls it Sankalpa Shakti. Whatever he decides is bound to manifest. But if our minds are scattered, weak, and impure or confused, he cannot decide for us.

The last many posts on Fb are about mind and its powers. I have started writing on Fb so that small and easy lessons can be given to all of you in between the long blog posts. Simpler themes and easy to follow from beginner’s level to advanced levels are published on and off. Please consider both the avenues as equally important as Fb postings are an extension of blog. Especially those devotees who are at the basic or elementary level should read those posts reverentially because they are also always guided by the divine saints from the astral world.

Receptivity, attentiveness, clarity of thought, self-discipline, fortitude and consistency on Fb is as important as you are expected to have on Spiritinlife. They are one; only the exterior is different. Please pay attention to both. Learn from both because regular messages are being relayed from both sites.

Connect to the Holy Masters and your Atma inwardly by first silencing the mind. Unite your thoughts with the power of your sacred Guru and empower your thoughts by daily prayers and deep meditations!

Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti Om!

(Mukteshwar temple, Bhubaneshwar, Orissa)

Part A

8.03.14

Bhagwan Shiva is the Adi Guru and the first yogi living in Himalayas who researched and founded yoga and discovered the art of controlling breath. He is the pioneer of Kriya Yoga or the Science of regulating the breath and with its constant practice in isolation, capturing of the mind and finally silencing it. In conclusion, the mind and body were made immortal and divinized with the help of intense practice of this innovative Science combined with deep meditations.

Lord Shiva then initiated his son Kartikeyan into this yogic science. In times to come, Lord Kartikeyan blessed his foremost disciple Bogarnath and initiated him into the same practice of immortalizing the body and mind with tapas. Shri Bogarnath was a great Sage or Maharishi who spent most of his life in thick forests in South India.  Moreover, he did wonderful research of ancient yogic sciences and lived a long life. His samadhi is in Palani in Tamil Nadu, near Madurai. He is a deathless Guru and considered one of the eighteen Siddhas of India. He mastered Chemistry of making human body deathless and immortal, did intensive research in Yoga and many more mystic secretive yogic disciplines. I have paid my obeisance to him twice in Palani, where he rests even today, by visiting the powerful temple of Kartikeyan or Murugan Swami built by him with panch dhatu or five metals.

When Mahavatar Babaji was doing great penance in the forest of Sri Lanka in Katargama, as a young boy of less than fourteen, Swami Bogarnath initiated him into higher levels of Kriya practice in the subtle world. Mahavatar Babaji was initiated by Bogarnath during his meditation into the Science of Kriya Yoga. With great deal of kripa or blessing, I have been able to go and spend enough time in this sacred place of Katargama also two times. Both these places were never known to me until my dearest Guru Shri Mahavatar Babaji directed me to go there in order to make advances in my spiritual and mental well being. I shall be always very grateful to him for sending me to such dynamic places which are associated with his own spiritual accomplishments.

Dear friends i have made pilgrimages recently to Somnath and Dwarka also. Somnath is one of the twelve jyotirlingas in India. Prior to that trip, I also went to Dakshineshwar in Jan 2014 and before that I made a wonderful trip to Pondicherry and Palani in 2013.

When I was in Madurai and before embarking to Palani a night before, Shri Bogarnath spoke to me in the hotel at length which I have shared with you in this post God Within –III.

Since I have come from Palani, he has been teaching me many new things about which I was totally unaware. My meditations are so much richer and profound. I have been hearing the higher frequency of Om frequently which is giving deep peace in my mind. It is the kripa of Shri Bogarnath I just understood yesterday. I have been repeatedly hearing a very high frequency sound which is higher than Om and it leaves behind impeccable peace of mind. Nothing disturbs. Babaji has put me in the hands of Shri Bogarnath for my next grade of education and tutoring after my second visit to Palani. He has been teaching me mostly every day early morning between 4 and 6 am. That is his time of taking me up for my further studies. I am extremely grateful to him for inducting me as one of his students. I am again realigning my daily schedule as per his advice. The heart is full of thanksgiving and salutes him so many times throughout the day for his unlimited generosity. Everything that he has imparted to me is new and fresh. The reason is that the first  level that he begins with is for the accomplished ones and the standard quite high.

Please read this article many times, first as a whole and then in parts many times. Read after a few days again so that the complete analysis is formed in your mind. Also do not forget to thank him profusely so that with his generosity and benevolence, you shall be imparted some light and insight into his huge reservoir of ancient wisdom. He usually likes us to wake up early and meditate with him where we can get an opportunity to commune with him easily.

He taught me-

Kripa or Grace is of three types- Kanishtha, Madhyam and Uttam or less, medium and high types. They depend on the tapas of the sadhak congruently.

Tapasya or penance of three types – tapasya, ghor tapasya and mahaghor tapasya.

Bhakti or Devotion three types – Tamoguni, Rajoguni and Satoguni.

Tamoguni devotion is when the devotee is selfish and asks for himself or herself only and gives nothing in return to God. Some of them also use dark forces to get their end results.

Rajoguni devotion is done by devotees who love God and will return something also when they are benefited but on one or two conditions.

Satoguni bhakti or devotion is done by pure devotees who ask for nothing in return and love God only because they want God’s Grace and love in return. They always do thoughtful and generous actions which are unselfish in nature.

Bhakt or devotees are four types- Aart, Artharthi, Jigyasu, Mumukshu.

Aart – Many devotees come to God or Guru when they have problems and they wish to find a remedy. Once the problems are solved they leave and go back doing regular things.

Artharthi –  the devotees who come to Guru’s ashram or shelter because they want arth which means wealth, money or prosperity.

Jigyasu – those people who have jigyasa or curiosity. Once their curiosity is fulfilled, such devotees do not continue their relation with the Guru or with God either and they get engrossed in many other activities of life and return to their normal prior lives.

Mumukshu – the one who has the desire of Moksha or salvation. Out of so many devotees of God or a Self-Realized Guru, just a trickle or handful come to them for salvaging their lives and wish to liberate themselves from the shackles of life and death’s suffering. They never leave their honourable Guru and never break the relationship with God who they had searched in many previous lives while facing many hurdles and problems daringly. Their lives are a complete submission at the holy feet of the Great Masters and benevolent God.

Shanti or peace is of three types- Shanti, Ghor shanti, Param shanti. Peace, deep peace and Ultimate Peace.

Part B

On 3^rd March evening, I got up from a short meditation with deep serenity. In that time when my eyes were closed, in my vision I could see my back and my face turned towards distant Eternity. I was facing the Lord. I could see Light. There was nothing else in the view besides me and the Light. I saw a big circle of very pale light, almost white in colour. Soon the circle became bigger and bigger and it enlarged on its own so much. It had stretched itself as far as it could to its maximum. My whole vision was surrounded by serene Light. I was sitting and seeing this big white Light. With so much fascination on its arrival and magnetism, after a few moments, I decided to go inside it. I melted myself inside this big corona of white light. It was extremely light. I vanished inside it wholly, there was just Pure Light and I was not present anymore. The Pure white Light continued being there for quite a while until I heard the Voice of God telling me –

“Today you have crossed the last step thereby the whole of Brahmrandra, Crown Chakra has opened. It is fully opened. When the Crown Chakra begins to open by the yogic activities of a yogi, for some it opens a little and after that he stops putting in more efforts. For others it may open somewhat half or a little more. Rarely it opens completely and fully open in one life wherein all the cells of the nervous system are active. You have achieved this in the shortest ever time. Those who reach this stage of evolution can receive Prabhutva gyan or extremely rare knowledge of God.”

I became speechless and wondered nothing. Silence and peace only prevailed.

What can I say? I owe this exclusive experience to Shri Mahavatar Babaji for it has happened only because of his constant guidance, care and love which has been flowing uninterruptedly since so many years. Guru Kripa kewal Guru Kripa!!

Now regarding me recently, Maharishi Bogarnath informed me this-“Tu asadharan stree hi nahi parantu vishesh hai.(Expand your Consciousness-II) Tere dono bahon me bala hai. Ek bazu mei bala hai dhairya, aur doosre mai hai buddhi. Tumhe asadharan safalta apne purushartha mei isliye mili kyunki tumhara mana bahut sthir hai. Aur tumhara mana bahut shaant hai.

Prachin kaal mei, log Bharat mei barah Jyotirlinga ke darshan nahi kar pate they kyunki saaf safai ka abhav tha aur adhunki parivahan nahi tha.Tum itne teerth par gayi ho aur tumne kabhi koi shikayat nahi ki hai  kisi asuvidha hone par itna safar karne ke baad bhi.

Babaji ki di hui padhai aur pariksha tumne samay se thodi der pahele hi khatam kar li, isliye veh tumse prasanna hai. Mai bhi tumko har roz nayi nayi baat sikha raha hoon.Tum Kriya barabar karti ho, maun rakhti ho, samay par neend le rahi ho aur khana samay par kha rahi ho. Aur sabse badi baat hai ki tumhara mana bilkul ek jagah par hai. Babaji ki kripa se tumhara Brahmrandra pura khul gaya hai. Tum paanch baar Babaji ke darshan ke liye Himalaya gayi aur veh tumse jaankar nahin mile. Ishwar ne un paanch yatraon ke liye tumhe ashirwad diya hai. Ek yatra ek janam ki tapasya gini jayegi aur is prakar tumne paanch janam ki tapasya woh paanch yatraon mei kar li hai.”

“You are not only an extraordinary woman but are special because you have might in both hands. The might of patience in one arm and in the other intelligence. You have achieved exceptional success in your spiritual endeavours because your mind does not waver; it is  steady all the time. And you have a peaceful mind.

“In olden days, people were not successful in completing the darshan of all twelve jyotirlingas in India because of lack of hygiene and proper transportation. You have gone on so many pilgrimages and have never complained by the inconveniences caused by excessive travelling.

All the studies and tests given by Babaji to you have been pursued and finished before time and therefore he is pleased with you. Even I am teaching you so many concealed things because Babaji is happy with you. It is with his benevolence that the Crown Chakra has blossomed fully.  You have made five unsuccessful attempts to Babaji’s abode in the Himalayas. He purposefully did not meet you. God has blessed you for those five unsuccessful yatras. Each trip is equal to one life’s penance and therefore you achieved the penance of five lives in this life granted by God. ”

I asked Swami Bogarnath to clarify if the Crown Chakra opens in stages or not. I was curious to learn and know from a Maharishi like him whose stature is gigantic. He answered saying that -“Yes, it opens in stages very slowly. It does not normally open all at once in one life. It takes a lot of time to evolve this part of the human body because it is a very delicate organ and the life trials are deterring and hence the hindrance. Human life situations can be very critical at a few times. The procedure becomes time consuming because of this reason. The people become pessimist or depressed and these melancholic tendencies act as a deterrent and constrains them. Relentlessness, cheerfulness and blind faith in the Realized Guru are foremost requisitions for the quick flowering of this seventh centre of spiritual energies.”

Illumination, more illumination has been trickling in as sheer Grace of God! I was quite intrigued at the incessant flow of special information supplied to me.  I then began to wonder how it is possible that Babaji is being extremely benevolent towards me and hence my rapid progress.

Why me?

Diffusing my queries, Maharishi Bogarnath satiated my doubt by replying to me. In his own words-

“You have done tapas in continuous last eight incarnations. It takes minimum of eight continuous lives with unremitting concentration and patience for God realization. Each eight incarnations must be totally dedicated for God Realization only. Average people take fifteen births and many take more than fifteen continuous lives to open up their Crown Chakra or Brahmrandra for full enlightenment. Some take twenty five to thirty five lives for its culmination.

In exceptional case like Babaji’s, it has taken him just six lives for full enlightenment and there can be no comparison at all with anybody since Shri Mahavatar Babaji got spiritual enlightenment many millennia back.  He has been escalating his mahaghor tapa and going on adding to his ocean of spiritual knowledge and wisdom since then. Today his state of spiritual consciousness is beyond our comprehension and we are unable to fathom his stature.”

I quickly recollected at this stage something that Babaji had told me some years back in 2004-

“Moksha or salvation is not the end of supreme human evolution. Moksha is not the completion or termination as you think my dear child. You are well versed with the Holy Scriptures and feel that you are still not able to comprehend what is Moksha as per the indications given in the Hindu Shastras.

It is not your fault. The ancient Hindu scriptures were not divulging enough as it was prohibited from God not to reveal too much because of the possibility of blasphemy or violation of sanctity by unruly seekers. Therefore you thought after summarizing the scriptures that you would like to end your journey at attaining liberation or Moksha. Rather, the real journey starts from hereon. At this juncture, the Brahmarandra just begins to open up and will keep on blossoming as and when the process of its culmination is put into action. Almost all the aspiring yogis like to break and end their journey at this summit. The journey is tough. But this is not the summit.

Moksha means exhausting all past karmas. After Moksha, a new phase can be entered by the jigyasu or mumukshu. From here on, start the escalating stages of blazing, very blazing and intensely blazing knowledge which in Hindi are called Teevra, Prachand and Prabhutva Gyan respectively.

As and when the sadhak makes progress at the behest of the enlightened Master, the Crown Chakra simultaneously blossoms. At Prachand gyan stage, the Crown Chakra opens around half in size.

Many sages, saints and yogis are exhausted at this stage and cannot go further because of intense penance required for its culmination. It gets very hard at such a high stage of evolution for the reason that the enlightened Master will not inform his aspiring devotee beforehand and the disciple should fall back on his or her own will power and resilience which is required in wholesome quantities. God will only allow and let those yogis go higher still if the burning desire or Ichcha Shakti in them is inextinguishable. The Holy Master only supports and guides his devotees once the inextinguishable flame is visible to the Master and he has unconditional love and undying compassion for the deserving disciples.

Between the stages of middle and final culmination of the Crown Chakra, concurrently Prachand and Prabhutva stage of Godliness, it is a tight rope walk. The Master supervises the last onset of intense growth period but with a price to pay by his devotees. Many challenging and problematic tasks are to be performed and passed by the yogi after which he or she may or may not finally reach a stage where the traversing ends. The yogi sees God in full glory and luminosity at full blossom of his Brahmrandra.

Nonetheless, after arriving at this safe stage the Maha Guru begins to shower all the ancient and well preserved spiritual knowledge and secrets liberally to his favoured for all the perseverance, sincerity, hard work and obedience showed towards his Master. At last, the devotee is at an irrevocable and secure stage after which he will bask in deeper oceans of peace and tranquility because of which God contact becomes so much easier, quicker and the relationship between God and devotee as a lover is far more informal than ever before.”

This revelation of facts coincides with another mystic experience that I just encountered unexpectedly. This happened by means of God substantiating His verdict by giving me a glimpse of his sacred world and its sublime working lately.

On 6^th March in a very early morning transcended stage, even before I left the bed, I had a beautiful vision of Lord Vishnu sleeping peacefully on a black serpent, Shesh Nag. I was seeing it with keenness and affinity when the slumbering serpent raised its hood and jumped towards me. I was calm and without any ruffle. Just then, five beautiful golden rays of God’s Light came out of the mouth of that serpent and were thrown at me with a force. I looked at the rays again to inspect and see more clearly if they were shining. Seeing their brilliance, I was satisfied and assured that this must be a good omen and the vision is a harbinger of something nice to happen to me. The answer came to me later from Maharishi Bogarnathar yesterday early morning.

He explained to me in the morning of 10.03.14- “This was an indication from God that you are completely united with God with no Maya. Lord Vishnu has conquered the whole Maya and therefore sleeping on the serpent Shesh Nag which symbolizes the delusion of man or Maya.

Even the extreme faintest etches or markings of Maya on your mind accrued in all the human incarnations undertaken by you have been erased by your tapasya which you have done in this life. You have no debt towards the Earth anymore. The debt of each human being is enormous. We incarnate many times. In each life, we consume food, water, air, medicine, natural resources, the care and concern and kripa of godly deities and much more. This debt increases as we proceed in each incarnation.

You are now totally entitled for Prabhutva Gyan or extremely brilliant spiritual knowledge which begins now.

Prabhutva Gyan is the most difficult to attain. We have to give back to the Earth and the whole Universe with our body, mind and wealth-tana, mana, dhan. When the equation becomes equal, the human Soul acquires Ultimate Peace or Param Shanti.

Prachand Gyan  also is hard to accomplish. Even the seers, sages and saints get tired and impatient. This revelation about you to the world is not to seek any attention for you, but for a different purpose. It is for all the striving seekers to know that they have a long road to march and they should therefore first improve their concentration. Only when the mind is so very concentrated, will you be able to achieve highest human feats and reach the highest spiritual domains.

The devotees who are interested in this pursuit, they should concentrate on the image of Krishna or Babaji. Have faith in your own self. One would require solitude, isolation for a very long time and silence should be practiced liberally.”

He continued showering kindness by telling me many things about myself which only he was entitled to tell – “You were getting ghor shanti and now if you should attempt further for more Param Shanti which translates as peace of mind which can reach about twenty five kilometers or so. Also the depth of your peace should be more and it should be able to heal others with your mere intention.

So many human ailments are healed if we increase the depth of our peace by making it more profound.

People cannot know from exterior if we are a yogi or a bhogi; a seeker or an indulgent. But the peace emitting out of the body and mind will determine whether we are pure in mind and body or not. The purer the mind, the more peaceful it shall be. Ultimate Peace is achieved when the mind is absolutely calm and quiet. My sweet child, you were always in pursuit of the Ultimate Peace. Your search of Ultimate Peace is now within your reach.”

Getting to know so much from Maharishi Shri Bogarnathar, I was still left with one question to which he replied on his own. The relay of conversation occurred just yesterday morning. He continued satisfying me by confiding in me-

“I and Babaji both decided and we prayed to Supreme God about thirteen years ago to permit us to approve and endorse our intention. In ancient ages, when the wise sages wrote something or documented their research in the field of Yoga, Science, Astrology, Astronomy, Chemistry, Mathematics or even Physics for that matter, it was not preserved well. The manuscripts were vulnerable to natural elements of fire and floods. Sometimes they were even robbed and hence the hard work of a genuine sage could become the source of glory of another deceitful person. Hence in this age we wanted someone to write a complete manuscript or shastra of how to attain God, the process of salvation. We thought if this project would be successful, I would want to write and preserve my own hard earned ancient chronicles of wisdom acquired over ages in a well-mannered documentation. Today in this age of technology, any data can be preserved for many ages safely via many new multimedia forms. And hence the articles that you are now writing are at my behest and are being documented and preserved. It can be used in future for many eager generations who wish to help themselves. Your great effort in this endeavour has been rewarded by God and will be considered equal to Adi Shankaracharya’s arduous effort of visiting the four holy corners of  sacred India rejuvenating Dharma and uniting the char dhams of India – Badrinath, Dwarka, Puri and Rameshwaram.”

Oh! Sweet Lord! Make us pure Like Thee! Make us Glorious like Thee! Make us desire less like Thee! Make us humble like Thee!
