Guest guest Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Sadar PrAnaams Babaji and other Sadhaks : May i please share a verse from the Vigyana Bhairava Tantra ? This great tantrik text is an 'agama' coming from the Divine mouth of the supreme principle of the universe, Lord Shiva... here the guru is Bhairava and the disciple is Bhairavi, the divine mother Shakti... Urdhve Prano By Adho Jivi Viasargatha Paraocharet Utpathidvitayasthane Bhranaad Bharita Sthitih (verse 24) (forgive error in transliteration) THE SUPREME SHAKTI whose nature is to create , constantly expresses HERSELF upward in the form of exhalation , and downward in the form of inhalation. By steadily fixing the mind on either of the two spaces between the breaths, one experiences the state of fulness of Bhairava. This is the natural 'Ham-sa' mantra - we were ininted into mantra right when we were in our mother's womb! And strangely enough, sri ramana maharishi also asks us to meditate on the same ... Ko ham ? who am i ? Naham deham ! i am not this body ! so ham ! I am that! what is so ham except the reeverse of hamsa mantra. Once we know this , we can sing along with Tamizzh poet Bharatiyaar, 'oru sakthi pirakathu moochinale ' - yes! there is renewed 'energy' in every breath we take! Thanks Senthil for sharing Mahakavi Bharatiyaar's poems with us ! He was a poet , philosopher , and a patriotic poet - all in one! He was the contemporary of Sri Aurobindo Ghosh etc. ON ANOTHER NOTE , ( " yasyA unmIlite nEtrE, jagadEtad prakaSatE nimIlitEtu niScEStaM, namastasyai namO namaH " Salutations again and again to Her in whose eyes this whole Universe shines when they are open and dissolves when they are closed. one of the names of Sri Lalita mahatripurasundari is Unmesha niminishotpanna vipanna bhuvanavali The opening of whose eyes results in creation and closing in destruction. Since you are a shakti worshipper, BABAJI , , it gives me great pleasure to PEN THESE LINES ! OM SHAKTI! SHAKTI om! > Dear Aum, > > What is that you mean by you used shiva while inhaling and shakthi > while exhaling?? > > Sarvamaatha. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
