The Fragrance of My Flower

1.The imprints of my  several births are with me in the genetic centre. I have to learn how to dig them out and get converted into thoughts through my present brain.

2.To find your own treasure, flower into eternal consciousness.  Eternal consciousness is attained by progress into consciousness from thought'full' mind.

3.Consciousness flowers in the land of silence.

4.For consciousness, try nothing.  Do nothing.

5.Respond only to the present.  Don't refer to past and present unless it is required to fulfil mundane duties because this reference gives birth to thoughts which result in the absence of consciousness.

6.Do Five minutes meditation in silence and be conscious for one hour. Repeat for the whole day to be conscious for ever.

7.Your commitments, engagements and too many responsibilities make you a machine and fall into unconsciousness. Reduce them to extend your consciousness.

8.You are your consciousness and you are not when consciousness is not there. Be alive and not dead.

9.You are soon exhausted when you are unconscious being carried away by thoughts and you are energetic when you are conscious.

10.Disown to claim yourself.

Of consciousness

Self realisation is impossible with mind and without consciousness.

The presence of mind is the absence of consciousness.
The absence of mind is the presence of consciousness.

The watcher is consciousness.
The watched is consciousness.
That which watches the watcher and the watched is also consciousness.

Silence is the seed of consciousness.

Spiritual journey ends with Diwali

Spiritual journey starts when you ask yourself “who am I?” and ends with enlightenment when you find the answer.

The answer for primary question “who am I?” includes the answers for other significant questions: who is God?, How did this universe come into existence?, why are there different religions in the world? What is soul? where I was before my birth?, what happens to me after my death?, etc.

Spiritual journey begins and ends within, not outside. You are the map. Your intuition is the guide. Search for truth is the journey. Temptations from worldly life are the checkposts. Your ego is the deepest and dangerous river on your way to cross. Your experience is the reward and your strength.

Silence that is the seed of self realisation is the key to find your inner treasure.

The day on which you find yourself, the flood of light of enlightenment spreads your soul and all your EGO, the greatest asura Naragasura, the emperor of all suffering is destroyed is real Diwali for you and on that day your spiritual journey ends.

You don't take sweets but become sweets. You don't light the lamps but you become lighted lamps.  What has fired out is not crackers but your ignorance and ego. You don't wear a new dress but your soul turns into a new leaf. You don't celebrate for one day but the everlasting celebration within begins.

- Donald Rumsfeld, the 13th Secretary of Defence, America

An Enquiry about Aathma by Aathma

Where is Aathma?
Aathma is everywhere
In the universe
Beyond the universe,
Inside everything,
Outside everything.

Are aathma and God
Two different things?
No. Both are same.
Paramathma is the rice.
Jeevathma is the rice scattered.
Paraman is the tree.
Jeevan is its branches.
Are the branches not the tree?
Is the tree not the branches?
Paramathma is ocean.
Jeevathma is waves.
Are the ocean and waves different?

Is aathma with form or without form?
It’s formless.
If it’s with form,
It can be seen, touched.
It can destroy one-day.
It cannot be everywhere.
Everything that has form can be in one place at a time.
That which has no form alone can be everywhere.
Everything that has form can be destroyed.
That which has no form cannot be destroyed.

Is aathma one, two or many?

Aathma is one.
That which has no form is borderless.
There cannot be two or many borderless things.
There can be two or many visible things or persons.
There cannot be two or many invisible things.
If aathma is invisible, eternal, borderless, everywhere,
It must be one.

If aathma is one,
You and I have the same aathma.
Houses are many on the earth,
But the wind blows through all houses is one.
So has spread through the aathma in all of us.
