Krishna the charioteer and Arjuna -Bharat ji -Indriyas/Manas etc.

[Guest guest]

Dear Bharat ji Namaskar

 

All the answers for your queries,are in Bhagawat Gita.When Lord Krishna

HIMSELF has explained them in detail,i do not think any one has to

elaborate further.

 

Bhagwan has explained to Arjuna on how to fix ones mind on HIM.What i

have told is nothing more.We have to understand the difference between

jivatma and Paramatma here.We are talking about jivatma,which is a spark

of the very Paramatma.Finally mind will dissolve and just the Atma

remains which will unite jivatma and Paramtma.Budhi is the mediator

here.Please don't get distracted by various translations of Gita.Just

think how we are breaking sheaths one by one and joining HIM.This is

dissolving of mind in Atma - total dissolution is assimilation.

 

There is a purpose for the creation of mind.Without it the ''game'' is

not possible.

Thus Shiva/Shakthi,Purusha/Prakrithi,Atma/Manas,Surya/Chandra etc have

Paraspara Ashrayatwa or mutual dependency.It is all the same.When we say

''wherever mind is going'' - it is not a physical displacement.It is

Manovyapara.Atma is the spark of HIM within us.It is just sitting as an

observer,and goes wherever the mind takes him,and remains

unaffected.Budhi is the discriminator,who can decide what is wriong and

what is right.When Budhi is refined,or when the dust and impurities are

removed,Budhi will act as it is supoosed to.Indriyas and Vishaya Sukhas

can cloud Budhi.Once these are tamed,Manas Joins Budhi and then finally

it joins Atma.Total dissolution.Bhagavan has made this crystal clear.

 

A musician can sing based on lower intellectual analysis or higher

influence.When it is lower,he concentrates or just repeats the

techniques as taught.But in the higher state he forgets mind and music

comes from Atma.It will come from within.Bhava can result only with

that.Atma knows everything as it is part of the Pure Bodha or

Consciousness.Bhava is thus the joining of Atma and Manas.Musician was

just an example.Think of the act smile.We can smile just with lip

movement or lip plus chin,cheeks,facial muscles etc.But the smile is not

having bhava if it not coming from within.Then there is a

confluence.Word or Vak is supreme.Nada is Supreme.Hence musical

expressions can make us feel Bhava or unison with HIM,atleast for a few

seconds,when striving for perfection.

 

Once the concept of Bhava is clear,we can discuss astrological vargas.i

am pretty sure that you have enough intelligence to understand the

same.Whole universe is permeated with his spark.The colelctive feeling

of all these is Supreme Bodha.In Jyotisha one unison of Atma and Manas

is one Bhava.Indriyas,Budhi,Prana etc are facilitators.

 

Kind Regds

[Guest guest]

Namaskaar Sri Pradeep

 

AUM!

 

All the answers for your queries,are in Bhagawat Gita.When Lord Krishna

HIMSELF has explained them in detail,i do not think any one has to

elaborate further.

 

If I may say so, the query was yours. I used the Upanishads to explain the

same. Bhagavad Gita is one of the finest expositions on the Upanishads and

it does not alter the saying of the Upanishad.

 

Bhagwan has explained to Arjuna on how to fix ones mind on HIM.What i

have told is nothing more.We have to understand the difference between

jivatma and Paramatma here.We are talking about jivatma,which is a spark

of the very Paramatma.

Is the drop of water in an ocean separate from the ocean? When inside the

Ocean do you see water everywhere or do you see droplets of water

separately? When we talk on infinite lord, do you see any parts in it? When

you see infinite space - can you divide it? The room space, wall space,

garden space, city space is after all space. Jivatma does not refer to a

separate Atma but the notion of it in the mind. Please this is the

difference.

 

Finally mind will dissolve and just the Atma

remains which will unite jivatma and Paramtma.

If such was the case, then, every night in deep sleep they would unite as

mind is not there. Read Mandukya Upanishad with Sri Gaupada's Karika. The

notion dissolving is not the mind dissolving. Do trees have to vanish for me

to see Atman? Did Ramakrishna Paramhansa not see people around him?

 

Budhi is the mediator here.Please don't get distracted by various

translations of Gita.Just think how we are breaking sheaths one by one and

joining HIM.This is dissolving of mind in Atma - total dissolution is

assimilation.

I am not going by translations of Srimad Bhagavat Gita. I am going by the

teachings of the Upanishad. I have given many references of the same. Kindly

do not reject those teachings are mere interpretations of translators! The

teachings have been given with complete logic and reasoning.

 

Breaking sheaths amount to saying that pranas do not function in a Jeevan

Mukta. This statement is totally against the Upanishads. Kindly give

reference either in the Upanishads or the Bhagavad Gita.

 

Atma knows everything as it is part of the Pure Bodha or

Consciousness.Bhava is thus the joining of Atma and Manas.

Look at the contradiction - If you say Atma is a part of Consciousness, then

it would be perishable. As it is limited and not infinite. You are going

against the very basis of Mahavakya - Atman is Brahman.

 

Pradeep, please do not take in the wrong manner, but it would do you good if

you study the above subjects carefully under guidance of a Guru. I can

suggest you some books to start with, to make things easier. It is these

errors that are making you question again and again.

 

If you feel I do not understand (even intellectually) the Upanishads or the

Bhagavad Gita, then, the discussion should stop here. However, if you

understand that I know something, then you can ask n number of questions. I

will only initiate this learning process if you approach as a learner and

not as a challenger.

 

A musician can sing based on lower intellectual analysis or higher

influence.When it is lower,he concentrates or just repeats the

techniques as taught.But in the higher state he forgets mind and music

comes from Atma.It will come from within.Bhava can result only with

that.

When one sings because it comes naturally, then it is the highest form. The

desire for appreciation, etc is absent in such a case. In doing so, why do

you personalize Atman as that of a musician just because he has broken

identification from the mind. This example does not in any case prove that

there are separate Atmans floating around.

 

Bhava is thus the joining of Atma and Manas.Musician was

just an example.Think of the act smile.We can smile just with lip

movement or lip plus chin,cheeks,facial muscles etc.But the smile is not

having bhava if it not coming from within.Then there is a

confluence.

In the above case, as the limitedness of Manas is disassociated with,

therefore the Bhava comes, not because of the joining of the two! How can an

Omnipresent join or remove from anything?

First verse of Isa Upanishad - All that is there, is verily the Lord!

Therefore, the concept of Jivatman is a notion. Do not build the entire

theory of bhava on a false notion. This is serious confusion and you must

talk to a Siddha Guru regarding the same.

 

There is a frequent example in the Upanishads about the rope and the snake.

This example states that if in a dark corner a rope lies and if you see it

as a snake, then, your mind is superimposing the idea of the snake because

the base is rope. This is because the imaginary snake borrows shape of the

real rope. Here snake is Maya and rope is Brahman. The idea is space and

time are endless because Brahman is, so space and time seem that way. This

example does not mean that Brahman is Rope!

 

You have taken two examples, that of Chariot and of Jeevatman and converted

them into something like the above. To help you understand, if you give me

the references of the texts, I'll try and explain to the best of my

abilities.

 

Bhava is a kshetra of the Sthoola Sarira if you take Rashi chart as the

Sthoola Sarira. If you take it as a sum total of all koshas, then, we have a

different discussion at hand.

 

Again, in your analysis you have not touched upon the anandamaya kosha and

its kshetram.

 

This is why, we chant Om sahana vavatu before every class. Often, the

discussion can get heated as the subject matter is Self. Noone takes kindly

to breaking of self imposed notions.

 

Do let me know if you want to systematically study the texts. I can provide

you with the basic list before going on to the most powerful Texts.

 

Harih Aum

Sri Gurubhyo Namah

Hari Aum

 

 

Thanks and Regards

[Guest guest]

Dear Bharat ji Namaskar

 

Whether you have understood Upanishads or Gita is beyond my perception

and my job is not to judge that.What i have said is based on classical

shlokas.

 

Mamaivamsho Jeevaloke

Jeeva Bhootha Sanathana

Mana shashtaneendriyaani

Prakrithi sthani Karshathi

 

Bhagavad Gita,Chapter 15,Purushottama Yoga,Shloka 7.

 

My own Sanathana AMSHA manifests as Jeeva(jeevatma) in jeevaloka and

attracts the six indriyas including Manas(5 jnanendriyas plus

Manas),situated in Prakrithi.Please note the word AMSHA.

 

Yujnannevam Sadathmanam

Yogee Niyatha Manasa

Shanthim Nirvana Paramam

Malsamstham adhi gachathi.(Sixth chapter Dhyanayoga,shloka 15).

 

The yogi who has controlled the mind and the one who has made the mind

join with atma, will attain the height of shanthi in me.

 

Now let us take

AHAM BRAHMASMI - I AM BRAHMAN OR I AM HIM.They are one and the same,but

how?

What is the difference between spark(amsha) and Sun(Whole);Drop(amsha)

and Ocean(Whole)?

The drop is no different from Ocean,but all the drops collectively forms

the Ocean.Spark is no different from the Sun but all the sparks together

forms the Sun.

They are the same but they together constitute HIM.HE is in all,but all

together it is HIM.This is the difference between Jivatma and

Paramatma.It is difficult to express in words.Collective or Holistic

feeling is Supreme consciousness.

 

Joining of Mind and Atma and attainment of Bhava has to be experienced

through music.It cannot be expressed in words.

 

Thanks a lot for offering books and help.

 

Chandrashekhar ji has always told,''If you sincerely look for Knowledge

you will find it''.

 

Couple of years back,i had requested Ramanarayanan ji for some books

''The books you are looking for are already within you,You have to

sharpen .....''.Ramanarayanan ji has guided whenever i was in need.I

have expressed my concerns and differences regrading varga bhavas too.

 

When i had told about my lack of knoweldge in Sanskrit - Sri

Chandrahari said ''Fix your mind on Shiva and recite OM NAMA

SHIVAYA,everything will come automatically,no need to study anything''

 

Sreenadh ji is well read in classics and has not found a single

reference supporting seperate bhavas for amshas.Indriyas and Navapranas

do not have any lagna or Bhavas,But they infleuence Lagna and dwadasha

bhavas.I do not know why it is so difficult to understand!!!

 

I honestly agree that i have read very few books,no upanishads,no

vedas,and very few jyotish books.In that way i may be a pauper as

compared to you.But i trust the words of above Gurusthaneeyas.I feel the

biggest treasure of knoweldge is within us and not in any books.Ever

since i have been meeting AMRITANANDA MAYI AMMA,i feel no insecurity at

all.There is no bigger Yogi and Guru than Parama Shiva.

 

Let us travel together and learn from each other.Let the discretion

helps us in seperating good and bad.Listen to everyone,and take the

good.Neither you are, nor i am, a challenger.

 

Thanks

Pradee

[Guest guest]

Namaskaar Sri Pradeep

 

The verses that you have quoted, need proper explanation with references.

The verse mentioning Amsha is to explain that the consciousness that the

individual thinks as its own and separate from others, and therefore,

separate from Brahman can mean - That there is a substance separate from

Brahman existing. To refute the same Sri Krishna explains that the

consciousness within is of as if an amsha of Brahman.

 

This is a small sentence right now. Do not comment on it. I am preparing the

full reply but it will take time. This verse has to be seen from

explanations given in the 13th Chapter too. I think I will end up writing an

exposition on Srimad Bhagavad Gita!

 

Harih Aum Sri Gurubhyoh Namah, Harih Aum!

 

Thanks and Regards

Bharat
