Guest guest Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 Sai Ram, Somebody was asking about the meaning of the four words Mathi, Gati, Sthithi & Sanpathi. I got the following on the subject from Prof Anil Kumar's Sunday discourse at Prashanti Nilayam: Mathi, Gathi, Sthithi, Sampathi Swami has used the words - mathi, gathi, sthithi, and sampathi - which are of interest. The first word is mathi, which means mind. The second word is gathi, meaning progress. The third word is sthithi, meaning maintenance, and the fourth is sampathi, which means attaining the six desirable qualifications that are your property. Four words: Mathi is the mind that determines your gathi or goal. This gathi has to be sustained and maintained. This maintenance is called sthithi. That is your property, which is called sampathi. Is that clear? So, mathi, gathi, sthithi and sampathi are the four words used in a sequential order by Bhagavan that also have a scientific significance. As is the mind, mathi, so is your gathi, destination. As is your gathi, so is the sthithi, maintenance of your life, which is your real property or sampathi. Do you understand? That's what Bhagawan has said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
