Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 Manthra Japa & yoga for attaining Earthly Needs and Heavenly Peace. Chanting Mantras for our earthly needs is actually making demands in prayer. In real prayer we trust, love and pray. No words are needed, there is no Expectation, there is no Ego, there is not Thought Flow. How do we get the Grace of God? Fix your Eyes and Mind on the idol or the picture of your desired deity and chant the mantra with love and trust. Around the idol there is already deposited a Divine Current. While we pray our human energy is sent through the eyes to the idol. Here, our human energy merges with the Divine Energy around the idol and is transformed into a Divine Current. This Divine Current than comes back to our body and is deposited inside us. This Super Electro Magnetic Divine Current brings forth the means to satisfy our needs. Rub an iron rod with a magnet, the iron rod also becomes a magnet. Similarly, the human energy mixes with the Divine Current and is transformed into Divine Energy. Thus we get the Grace of God. God is the Sum total of all that is the universe. Man is a small fraction of That and when the fraction demands the total supplies. This is the Law of Nature. When we chant sincerely with faith and trust it is recorded in our subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is capable of drawing our needs and wants from the super conscious mind. Only that much of pure energy that is sent through prayer can come back transmitted to serve you. Thus, God helps those who help themselves. CHANTING Chanting mantras is one of the ways to stop the thought flow. We also imprint our needs in the subconscious mind when we chant. When we chant, the energy becomes concentrated and is focused in a particular mantra. This focused energy is what becomes the bright deity and brings faith our needs. Mantras may be chanted with Yanthras. This way of chanting the mantra with the Yanthra produces vibrations, which are very powerful and the desired results are attained very fast. The Yanthra and Mantra can be used to recover from illnesses and other Karmic Evils. All temples store Divine current through Yanthras. Mantras are the purest form of energy which vibrates in us as an unseen illuminated light. The amount of pure love, trust and sincerity put into the chanting of a mantra produces the equivalent results. It is important to select the correct mantra according to your need and chant with sincere love and devotion. MANTRA WITH YOGA IS POWERFUL Chant the Mantra with love, faith, devotion and trust. Fix your eyes and mind on the idol of your choice or the picture of the idol. Now chant silently within the mind, fixing the eyes and mind as above for two minutes. Now close the eyes and chant for one minute while visualizing the idol at the point in between the eyebrows. Next, spread out the shining form of the idol throughout your body and imagine that you are the idol itself in a bright and shinning form. You are now the bright God itself. At this stage there is no chanting, no concentration. Relax in this state for three minutes. This is called Maha Yoga. The effect is miraculous. THE EFFECT OF CHANTING Sound produces vibrations which produces electricity says science. Chanting produces light and certain forms and figures of deities are produced according to the Mantra that is chanted. We may not be aware but these forms are imprinted on our subconscious Mind. As we continue to chant the form or figure becomes brighter and brighter inside and begins to vibrate and starts to fulfill our needs or the purpose of our chanting the particular Mantra. JAPA YOGA: Chanting within ourselves silently with the breath is more effective. There is no wastage of human energy. The human energy without spreading outside could be transformed into Divine energy and could be deposited inside us. In this way the Though Flow subsides and eventually stops. As our thoughts become fixed on our breath, a deeper impression is created and the breath relaxes the other systems in our body. YOGA: The third step is to visualize the bright idol in the space between the eyebrows. OBSERVE: With love while being in a calm relaxed state for three minutes. The Eye-Brow observation is conditioned concentration. The flow of thought on several objects at the same time is stopped and is focused on one object only i.e. the deity or idol. This yoga will help increase the power of concentration, memory power, will power and patience. MAHAYOGA : Spread the light from the deity or Guru, whom you have been visualizing between your eyebrows, all over your body. As you become the illuminated deity yourself your False _I_, Ego and body consciousness is pushed out and helps you become conscious of the formless soul. We now attain the stage of what is called Satguna Braman or Godliness with form. We also attain a balanced mind, tolerance towards others, cheerfulness, health, wealth, beauty and success in life. Be in Maha Yoga for 5-20 minutes daily. Take 3 minutes to spread out the light in the body. Be in the form of the deity for one minute, then dissolve and forget the form. To attain success in Maha Yoga it may take between 2-5 years. YOGA - PART ONE We cannot exist without Existence, God is Existence. Life is God. God is within us doing everything for us but we say we are doing everything. Digestion, Heart-Beat, Blood Circulation, etc. All these are done by God inside us but because of our Karma and Maya, we say we do all these. YOGA - PART TWO Yoga means stopping the noisy thought flow. When the thought stands still and the thought waves are stilled we observe, we realize that we are not the Mind. So, I am not the Mind and I am also not the Body but I am everlasting Soul. Thus, Yoga keeps us in Clarity and this awareness is present in every activity. We are all born _ Yogis- innocent children. As we grow up, the community corrupts us. We are polluted with ego and we grow up with ego and its by products such as greed, grief, anger, fear, jealousy, lust and anxieties. Other miseries and violence are also thrown in. that is why we have to have a second childhood through Yoga. Thyana is not tiresome concentration or conditional commands but total relaxation of the body and mind with effortless ease. From the body and mind, we reach the intellect and then on to the Blissful Beyond.Do not hurry or strain or thrust. Do not struggle with your thoughts and become frustrated. Be relaxed and have a positive outlook.Just be normal. Think of the present, here and now only, learn to be totally contented. Learn to hold your thoughts inside you. Be patient and have faith nd let it happen. YOGA - PART THREE YOGA IS AN ADVENTURE Being in the Present without worrying about the Past or Fearing the future. Yoga is something natural and should come without stress or strain. Be cheerful and calm always.Select and keep a separate place for your meditation. Do not have bright lights. Use dim lighting during meditation. Start with 20 minute sessions and go up to one hour. Learn to be in this relaxed state throughout the day. Thus, every activity becomes Thyana. YOGA - PART FOUR FACTS ABOUT YOGA, THYANA AND REALISATION Yoga is stopping the thought flow in a particular center, stopping the thought flow helps to attain some earthly benefits. During Yoga the energy reaches the center in the brain and produces illumination. This illumination charges every cell and life particle in the body and thus the soul becomes pure space, pure awareness and pure being. Yoga also helps one to attain certain powers (Sithis), health and wealth. But this does not lead to the liberation of the soul. It is only a preparatory part of Thyana. Thyana is a thoughtless stage. It is spontaneously Natural. During Thyana we become totally relaxed in the beauty of Total Silence deep within our soul. In total silence at peace with yourself and the world all your faults and fallacies become clearly visible. This helps to correct our mistakes and emerge a better human being than before. Meditation : Self Discovery and illumination. There is a recognition that we and the soul are the inseparable same. This realisation brings immense freedom and blissfulness. We become free from desires and become established in self discipline and we overcome fears and worries. We become contended and extra ordinarily ordinary. This is a perfect discovery. Realization dawns upon the individual that One is All and All is One. Only Yoga Thyana and introspection will give Clarity of mind, Purify, Liberty, Divinity, Peace and Joy. YOGA - PART FIVE FACTS ABOUT MANTHRAS Manthra Japa can only help in attaining Earthly Needs. It does not lead towards Peace, clarity of Mind and Enlightenment. Unless your chant Manthras sincerely and single-mindedly, they are not very effective and do not give the desired results. During Manthra Jpa do not ask your wants leave it to Him and surrenderin totality.He will Endow you with Everything. Purity of mind, word and deed are important prerequsites in Manthra Japa. How long you chant manthras is not important, how sincerely and single-mindedly is the point. The amount of pure energy transmitted is what will produse the effect. Mere talk will not help in Manthra Japa. Saying that you believe in God, Guru will not help. Only Sadhna will help. If your karma is very strong, chanting of general Manthras will not help. Find out what Doshas are affecting you. Select and chant suitable Manthras. Our miseries are the result of our previous karma. It is no good to say _ I am good, Divine and I chant Manthras, why should I suffer YOGA - PART SIX THYANA IN SILENCE _ MOUNA THAVAM This is one of the easiest and best thyana advised by our Saints. No initiation is needed. Sit comfortably on a spread, facing east or north. Say _Thayikku Vanakam, Thantaikku Vanakam, Gurunatharukku Vanakam. Andavanin Arut Kathirgal Yenanthu Udalilum Uyirilum Paravi Nirainthu, Ullum Puramum Oli Kaapaga Irukkatum. PRANAYAMA Take a slow long, deep breath and at the same time imagine and visualize a tube light going up from the bottom of the spinal cord to the top of the head. Breathe out slowly and imagine the light going back to the bottom of the spine. Repeat this 5 times. Now, while breathing in, spread out the tube of light sidewards and fill your whole being with this light. While breathing out, shrink the light back to the tube. Repeat this 5 times. Next, imagine rays of light pouring on you from the sky like waterfall. Imagine this light entering your body filling up your head, face, chest, belly, hands and legs. The whole body is totally illuminated. THYANA Keep your eyes half closed and observe your breath while breathing in and out slowly. Try to stop blinking your eyes. Slowly learn to hold your gaze. This may be difficult in the beginning but with practice it will come easily. The wobbling of the eye balls and blinking of the eyelids will stop. The length of the breath will be reduced. YOGA - PART SEVEN DURING THYANA The raised eyelid is dropped. The jaw is released and the lips are parted. The _|_ consciousness is pushed out. Even the breath is forgotten. The rise and fall of the belly is also forgotten. Your mind should be blank with no thought flow. Now even the body consciousness is not present. The whole body is asleep. At this stage there prevails a beautiful emptiness, The more you keep yourself empty like a vacuum, the more and more the Vital Magnetic Energy will fill this vacuum. This is similar to deep sleep when Nature deposits a lot of energy in us. YOGA - PART EIGHT MEDITATION AND THE EFFECT OF MOUNA THAVAM This is the easiest and best tapas with least strain. You are totally relaxed with effortless ease. To do this Thavam there is no need for initiation because the Supreme Lord Himself is the Generator, Operator and Determiner of this ancient Yoga. As the blinking of the eyes becomes less and less your conscious thought process will also become less. As the wobbling of the eye balls stop, the nerve center and the area of the brain which controls memory becomes more controlled. Therefore, without stress and strain we are able to stop the thought flow and this also produces a conscious deep sleep. When most people close their eyes and try to become silent, numerous thoughts intrude and images appear and are very distracting. However, when the eyes are half closed and defocused, there is no such disturbance by either thought or images. Mouna Thavam gives us control over our daily lives. Mouna Thavam helps us towards attaining Sahaja Samadhi. In this Thavam, we do not allow unnecessarily on anything nor pass judgement on others. There is no wastage of energy. The energy is directed and utilised towards peak performance of each organ in the body. This results in enormous amounts of Divine Energy being deposited inside us. Health, wealth, beauty, grace, clarity of thought and will power are the by products of this Thavam. The practitioner attains all the mystic powers. This Thavam can be taught to teenagers, school children to improve their memory power. PRANAVA THAVAM AND NAVAGRAHA THAVAM Ways to minimize the effects on the Navagraha Thosams. Our body is a temple. God is within us doing everything necessary for our well being. There is also Karma or imprints of previous deeds. Our bad Karma manifests itself in the form of pain and miseries. In order to clean or erase these bad Karmas we have to practice certain tapas. To start the practice of Pranava Thavam and Navagraha Thavam sit in a comfortable position and practice Pranayama for about five minutes. Fill your body with light as usual in all Yogas that we practice. Fill your body with light from top to bottom and sideways. Concentrate on the center between the eye brow, keep your thought at this centre for two minutes. Feel your subtle body going out of you from the top of your head to several thousand miles above you to the CHANDRA MANDALAM. Spread out your subtle body and merge your subtle body in the Chandra Mandalam. Meditate there for two minutes. >From the Chandra Mandalam go up to the SOORIYA MANDALAM, a further several thousand miles upwards. Merge yourself there and meditate for a further two minutes. Next proceed to the SAKTHI MANDALAM which is a further several thousand miles above the Sooriya Mandalam. This is also known as the Nakshatra Sakti Kallam. Merge yourself there and meditate for 2 minutes. >From the Nakshatra Sakhti Kallam proceed several thousands of miles higher on to the SIVA KALLAM. Spread yourself out there, Merge and meditate for 5 _ 10 minutes. >From the Siva Kallam go on to SURIA MANDALAM. Spread out and merge yourself with Sooriyan and meditate. Feel that the sun_s rays are most favourable to you always. Then come down to Chandran. Spread yourself out there, Merge and Meditate. Feel that Moon_s rays are most favourable to you always. >From the moon go on to Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Kethu. Merge and meditate on each Graha for 2 minutes. The go to Sakhti Kallam, Siva Kallam. Then come down in the same order as you went up to the top of your head. Spread throughout your body the energy gathered through the Nava Graha Thavam. Say the usual salutations and emerge from the meditation. HORO RELEVANCE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
