Guest guest Posted January 2, 2000 Report Share Posted January 2, 2000 Om Jaya Jaya Jagannatha Namamyaham Dear Tapani, You are under an illusion about consciousness. It is better that you ask about my knowledge, skills and meditation to some of your people like Swami Asutosh (Urs Strobell) and others in your Jyotish department. They are very cultured and are better representatives of the Maharishi movement. In fact this is the first time that one from the Maharishi movement has spoken in this manner. Shiva is knowledge and it is better to strive for knowledge. As regards meditation, you are , perhaps quite aware about my knowledge in these matters. In fact I have a lot of admiration for the TM movement, but people like you do not and CANNOT represent such a good thing. As regrds MOKSHA, sitting in a world of comforts and computers...it is not as easy as that. If you really want it, then walk out of your little world today and come to the lofty Himalaya's. Live among the true Tapaswi's in Kailash and perhaps you can say that you are ready. In fact, there are some very excellent people in the TM movement who are already involved in this thing like URS STROBELL. Do interact with him and learn to be peaceful within. Urs is already implementing a very good project in the foothills of Himalaya's and I hope that the more sincere among you can come here with a peaceful objective and high ideals. You should be participating in the huge Yagya which is being done by Maharishi in Allahabad right now instead of conjuring up tales of Virus's. As regards Guru's perhaps you are not even aware of the meaning of the term and the types of Guru's. I am a SIKSHA GURU and not a DIKSHA GURU. I hope you consult your seniors in the movement so that they can explain the difference between these terms. My own Diksha Guru is Pt. Kasinath Rath and I belong to the family of RATH-ATREYA (You will find this name of the Maharishi in the Rig Veda- If you care to read it). Maharshi Atri is the one who was the originator of the Meditation and hence the MOON belongs to the ATREYA GOTRA. He meditated and placed the Moon on the head of Lord Shiva and to this day people worship Shiva on Mondays. Hence OUR Family worships Lord Shiva ONLY in His lunar form as SOMANATH and Vishnu only in His lunar form as Krishna or Jagannath. I don't need to continue about this. As regards flying, I am quite aware of the " hopping " that is caused by the power of the leg muscles due to intense meditation. As regarsd awareness, a TRUE JYOTISH IS ONE WHO IS AWARE OF WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE WORLD AT ALL TIMES. This is due to his constant contact with the PARA level. If you are really associated with the Maharishi movement, then you shall understand what I am talking about, else, forget that I ever wrote all this. Again, if you have been meditating regularly, you would not get all this worked up and send all this stuff about virus and other freckles of your imagination. Get over the negative effect of Mars. Maharshi has a very nice book on the ultimate Defence strategy for all nations of the world. I am sure it will help you. There are also so many good things in all other movements. The Shakti movement of the Ramakrishna Mission or the Bhakti (Love) movement of the ISKCON are some fine examples. These people are also very good and God loving. Why hate them? If you hate, then MOKSHA is surely denied. I had written earlier about the fact that the writing of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita with its 700 verses is the Greatest gift of Sankaracharya to this modern world. What should this tell us? If Krishna Cosciousness is bogus, then why would Sankaracharya write this Gita?? Think my friend, Sankaracharya cannot be wrong, so what was he trying to tell the world? A thousand years back one of my fore-fathers left Somanath in Saurashtra to come to Kanyakubja, and thereafter, 700 years back another of my fore-fathers left Kanyakubja (Kanauj) to come to Puri with this single motive...to establish the teachings of the Guru's. He was granted land by the then King of Puri Sri Balabhadra Deva and the Bira Balabhadrapur village was established. They built TWO TEMPLES: One of Lord Somanath with a Linga that is always immersed in the waters of the adjoining river Bhagirati and the other that of Sri Vishnu. Anyway, I am finishing here and this will be my last mail for some time...I guess I need to meditate. I thought that people were benefitting by my company and my sharing of knowledge, but if I am becoming a burden, then I must go. This is the way of the world. Forgive me if I have hurt you or Raghu. Narasimha is my Sisya and he wrote this program at my behest and my request for the benefit of all astrologers, especially those who cannot afford the same.
