Jai Gurudev,

 

Sadar Pranaam to all the respected members,

 

Just would like to share a thought with you :

 

" Desires are like the breath you take; they are never ending until either you

know how to control them or die. "

 

With Regards,

 

Prabhat

Prabhatji, thanks for sharing this.

 

Since it is Navratri, we should mention that the demon Raktabeej represents

desires / thoughts. whenever his blood falls on the ground, 2 demons take their

place.

 

He is killed when Kali drinks all the blood that falls, showing that Devi

Kundalni, when she rises, drinks all the energy of the thoughts/desires, making

them useless.

HARE RAM, HARE KRISHAN

 

there must be a truth in your statement but my dharma/truth is to ask something

or try to say that you are wrong. I am sorry for that.

 

there are some queries.

 

(i) Can you control your desires. If no than who can control your desires. Your

answer should be different from the word God as God is everything. Also while

answering, introduce who are you so that with respect to that inforamtion about

yourself, your answer may be understood.

 

(ii) what is the meaning of the death of a thought. Does it really dies or a

thought creates another thought. Under what state a thought is never created

again and what would you call it as.

 

(iii) WHO REALLY DIES OR WHAT IS THE TRUTH OF DEATH.

>>>Can you control your desires. If no than who can control your desires. Your

The more I am controlled by my senses,the more desires I have.Each sense

(indriya)is like a horse pulling me in a particular direction.The way to

control desires is to turn inwards by following the path of contemplation and

meditation. The more the mind turns inwards,the desires keep falling off. When

finally the mind gets absorbed in the Self, there are no desires left. The

person becomes 'purnakaam' and loses his fake identity.

 

Buddhists handle  desires by 'mindfulness' that is by simply observing the

desire and doing nothing about it. There is no effort to control or negate it.

After some time the desire is no longer there.I have tried this and it works.

 

>>WHO REALLY DIES OR WHAT IS THE TRUTH OF DEATH>>

 

 The soul (permanent) takes a body and an identity( both impermanent) and goes

through physical experiences. When it has had them ,it leaves the body and then

maybe takes another body and identity for another set of experiences.This

continues till the soul is ready for liberation. What really 'dies' is the body

and the fake identity. It can be compared to the breaking of a clay pot. The

space inside the pot (the atma) merges with the space around it(the Parmatma)

and the broken pot is clay again.

HARE RAM, HARE KRISHNA

 

Lord Sri Krishna said in Srimad Bhagwad Geeta that there are two kind of persons

in this world one who are inward and another who are outward in nature.

 

Lord Sri Krishna said in Srimad Bhagwad Geeta that do everything in my

rememberance and at the time of death remember me as I am in sakshi Bhav.

 

Lord Sri Krishna said that after death the soul alongwith man, Buddhi and sankar

goes in another body.

 

My quiries are

 

(i) Is it necessary to become inward to get salvation if yes than why.

 

(ii) On keeping obervation on someone, we may loose our faith in Him. If yes,

than how can you get freedom from someone if you do not have faith in Him.

 

 

(iii) But after leaving old body a person lives in another body. Do you think

physical body really dies or it merges with astral body and only five elements

are left in the dead body which also dissolve in five elements.

 

(iv) If physical body is dead ie it is of no use and do not have any existance

than why people burn the dead body.

To start with yes, as the outer world drags our consiouness away. Unless we

gather our conciousness, we will never reach moksha. It will be like gathering

water in a bucket with many holes.

 

 

> (ii) On keeping obervation on someone, we may loose our faith in >Him. If

There is no need for faith in beginning. Thats why Yoga is so succesful. Just

keep practicising your Yoga, faith, Bhakti, Gyan wil arise by itself.

 

 

> (iii) But after leaving old body a person lives in another body. Do >you think

Jituji, disolving 5 elements will still not give you moskha, as there is still

the mind & the void to cross.

 

For physical death, only the elements that created the body dissolve. But since

the person is not free of the elements, he will be reborn into them.

 

The astral body is formed of the subtle form of these elements, so most common

people who die are still bound by the elements.

 

> (iv) If physical body is dead ie it is of no use and do not have >any

existance than why people burn the dead body.

 

Thats because many people refuse to accept they are dead, & keep hovering around

the body trying to get in. Burning the body is a sign that you should move on.

 

In the west, they bury bodies. There are certain low class of spirits that look

like skeletons/zombies. These are the people who refuse to move on, & continue

to identify with their body, which has decayed. Thats why in India the Rishis

decided the body would be burnt, so the soul would get the message it has to

move on.

Thank you Prabhatji. The way to carry on this conversation is to ask questions,

discuss the points, otherwise the conversation dies out.

 

So if you think any part of the conversation needs more discussion, please say

so, & we will carry on from there.

Twenty years back I was taking treatment for my stuttering speech. The person

handling us was a Professor in Psychology and he seemed to know some yogic

techniques.

 

Once during the six day programme, he asked us to chant " mmmmmmmm... " in one

full breath as long as it lasted. This he asked to repeat. We did it for the

best part of the half hour. We could feel we were chanting less and less audibly

as time progressed. No, it was not tiring of the vocal chord. It was very

refreshing. Then slowly such a situation arose that the voice could not be

raised at all. We chanted mentally. Then that too stopped and there was total

inner silence.

 

When we opened our eyes, they checked our pulse, it was 45. The BP was 55 - 35 !

The breathing was rhythmic. We found that we were all speaking with a fine round

tone without haste and stutter.

 

In this case the mind had calmed the breath. In my regular Pranayama routine, I

do kapalabhati. If I do a round of 500 , then at the end follows a breathless

period for about a minute. During this, I neither feel any need to inhale or

exhale. The breathing simply stops. Sometimes, I consciously watch the vanishing

of breath. There are other times when I am not aware of even that. I suddenly

seem to enter consciousness from somewhere. I thing it was the accompanying

thoughtlessness accompanied with the vanishing of breath.

 

This is so far my observation of thought- breath relationship. But I have heard

about how we breathe when in deep sleep and how a child breathes. The rhythm

dictated by the smooth flow of thoughts.

Dear Venkat,

 

thanks for sharing your experience. We in have a small group of 7 people who

have been doing sadhna together. One day just for pure anxiety, a friend who

had bought a BP meter, checked the BP of all and then we chanted Aummmmmm

(long humming sound, as the doctor told for you) and after about half hours

chanting, all of us had lower BP on both counts. It was in agreeable but lower

limits.

 

Pranayama, specially has a tremendous effect on our body. in 2006 when I reach

India after evacuation from Beirut, i got a paralysis attack and one eye became

rigid, and the mouth was deformed. I was unable to speak. The physiotherapist

asked me to chant Aum Namah Shivaya.

 

The doctor said that he was an atheist and did not believe in mantras etc, but

according to him the Mantra Aum Namah Shivaya, gives a powerful sensation and

exercise to all the important nerves which control eyes and mouth. And very

soon I was OK.

 

I feel lower the breathing rate, lower is the thought process, because

thoughts take fuel from prana incoming through breathing and the lesser the

fuel, the lesser are thoughts.

 

During meditation, everyone feels a black out for a few moments, when there

is no sensation of body, and no thoughts. At this moment, breathing also stops.

 

I wait for more input from our wise members

Dear Jitinder,

 

The arrangement of our body mind complex is that Maya, keeps our mind busy in

analysing the information received from outer world, through our 5 gyan

indriyas.

 

This Information triggers the earlier memories, and future inferences and mind

is continuously busy in analysing them. During sleep, the memories collected

during day, is again re-arranged and re-analysed by mind, which we see as

dreams.

 

The mind's job is to analyse. If we cut down the external stimulii, (by

shutting our eyes, by not listening and by not moving body parts as in Dhyana,

and stop our desires and sankalapas for a moment, the mind will be baffled. It

would have nothing to analyse, and then it would started analysing itself and

its source...which is our Soul.

 

Hence it is necessary to turn inwards and let the mind find its source and

get enlightened.

What makes you think we lose faith my obervation of something ? I think this is

not correct.

 

> (iii) But after leaving old body a person lives in another body. Do you think

physical body really dies or it merges with astral body and only five elements

>

 

Physical body is burnt where it merges with the elements, immediately, or

burried, where it slowly decays. Astral Body (consisting of four bodies viz.

Pranamaya Kosha, Manomaya Kosha, Vigyanmaya Kosha and Anandmaya Kosha) leave the

body at the time of death. Kundalini encases all these bodies and takes them to

astral worlds and then to next birth. Physical body decomposes and gross

memories are merged in the Akashik records.

 

> (iv) If physical body is dead ie it is of no use and do not have any existance

than why people burn the dead body.

>

Burning the body is best, because the astral body still has an affinity with the

body. Those with strong will power, do not leave the body, till it exists.

Hence our rishis prescribed burning the body and the son doing Kapal kriya in

which part of skull is broken with a bamboo. This breaks the final contact

point between physical body and astral body.

 

In case of burying, the astral body keeps hovering around its body till its

finally destroyed, thus delaying the astral journey of soul.

 

We find more ghosts in burial grounds, than in Shamshan

Dear Sirs,

 

It is demonstrated in laboratory experiments too ( by Deikman and others ) that

slower the breathing, lesser the thoughts and often when breath 'stops', there

will be no thoughts too. chittavrittinirodha/modify(quieten) activities of the

mind as the purpose of the Yoga ( Patanjali ) - because tada drashtuh swaruupe

aavasthanam/then the seer will be established in his own nature - may also mean

the same thing. However, for Patanjali, mental activities means waking, sleeping

and dreaming states too ( what a revolutionary concept ) and one should go

beyond the three states to enter the prajna loka/world of pure consciousness,

our true original nature.

 

Regards,

 

Thimmappa

HARE RAM, HARE KRISHAN

 

Prabhat Sir: Desires are like the breath you take; they are never ending until

either you know how to control them or die. "

 

Fundamental query: Is it possible to get freedom from desires by controlling

them.

 

Jitendra Query: Is it necessary to become inward to get salvation if yes than

why.

 

Santanu Sir:

To start with yes, as the outer world drags our consiouness away. Unless we

gather our conciousness, we will never reach moksha. It will be like gathering

water in a bucket with many holes.

 

Aum Sir:

The arrangement of our body mind complex is that Maya, keeps our mind busy

in analysing the information received from outer world, through our 5 gyan

indriyas.

 

> The mind's job is to analyse. If we cut down the external stimulii, (by

shutting our eyes, by not listening and by not moving body parts as in Dhyana,

and stop our desires and sankalapas for a moment, the mind will be baffled.

 

Further Jitendra's Queries:

 

(i) If mind works exactly on the sense subjects (information) only than Why

most of the times) it happens that our eye(sense) see the Lord's statue but mind

live with the girlfriend.

 

In other way when we remains in meditation in inward direction than also why our

mind lives in the holes of the outer worlds.

 

(ii) If mind's job is to analyse than what the intellect does.

 

(iii) Why do you want to stop the desires and sankalp's. Assuming that

Jitendra's desire is to know more and more about the spiritualism and the Lord

Sri Krishna his leela and mmmore.

 

(iv) Is it not true that whatever is inside is outside too.

 

(v) Is it possible to get salvation without considering OUTER WORLD.

 

2. Jitendra's query: On keeping obervation on someone, we may loose our faith

in Him. If yes, than how can you get freedom from someone if you do not have

faith in Him.

 

 

Shantanu Sir: There is no need for faith in beginning. Thats why Yoga is so

succesful. Just

keep practicising your Yoga, faith, Bhakti, Gyan wil arise by itself.

 

 

AUM SIR: What makes you think we lose faith my obervation of something ? I

think this is not correct.

 

Jitendra's comments: We are observing desire that these should not come to my

self means we understand that desires are bad for us and do not have faith in

desires that they are also Shakti who is a form of God.

 

Further Jitendra's Queries:

 

(i) What is faith

(ii) How do we creat faith in someone in someone in physical world.

(iii) what is the role of faith in spiritualism.

 

 

3. Jitendra's query : But after leaving old body a person lives in another body.

Do you think physical body really dies or it merges with astral body and only

five elements are left in the dead body which also dissolve in five elements.

 

Shantanyu Sir:

 

Thats because many people refuse to accept they are dead, & keep hovering around

the body trying to get in. Burning the body is a sign that you should move on.

 

 

AUM SIR:

 

Physical body decomposes and gross memories are merged in the Akashik records.

>

 

Further Jitendra's queries

 

(i) What is meaning by the term " death " and what really dies. Body is made of

five elements and it again dissolved into the Nature's five elements.

Dear Jitinder, As I told mind has three sources of disturbances viz.

 

1- External information (from indriyas)

 

2- Past memories and future sankalpas

 

3- information from the undermind or supermind

 

so if past memories of your girl friend are very strong, they will overrule

the info received from indriyas and will keep mind busy in that past memory or

any future sankalpas.

 

 

----------------

> (ii) If mind's job is to analyse than what the intellect does.

 

==>Intellect is part of mind only and helps mind in giving decisions.

 

-----------------

> (iii) Why do you want to stop the desires and sankalp's. Assuming that

Jitendra's desire is to know more and more about the spiritualism and the Lord

Sri Krishna his leela and mmmore.

 

 

=> such desires and sankalpas should not be stopped. We should begin with

controlling the Tamoguni desires and sankalpas first... then the Rajoguni... and

finally the Satoguni too.

 

We need a needle to take out the little wood splinter from our finger... once

the splinter is out, we dont need the needle.

>

---------------

> (iv) Is it not true that whatever is inside is outside too.

 

==> Yes our shastras say Yatha Brahmaand... tatha pinda.. whatever is in

universe is in our body too

 

--------------

>

> (v) Is it possible to get salvation without considering OUTER WORLD.

 

 

===> in fact to start our journey towards truth, we have to temprarily shut down

the outer world and go deep inside the mind and see its source. Once we

experience the source, then we should try to see that source outside too.

 

beginning from outside is possible,but the most difficult too

(ii) How the desire is created.

 

(iii) Do the word " TAMO GUNI DESIRE " and " Sato Guni Desires " is correct.

Because tamo guni person's symtoms are sleeping , not doing anything, laziness,

etc

 

(iv)why do you want to control the desires.

 

(v) Dwedi Sir has already explained that turning inwards and keeping watch on

desires ( observation) is the way to control the desires. Do you think Sir that

there are other methods to control the desires. If so, please share with us.

 

(vi) is it possible to get moksha by CONTROLLING the desires.

Ichhaa or desire is the beginning point and kamna is intense desire for a

thing /person

 

for exmaple i desire to get a lottery and continue thinking over this Ichha and

finally it becomes my Kamnaa and all my future plannings/deeds are centred

around this.

Desires are created by our subconscious on getting a stumulii from external

world.. or from our memory of past.

Tamoguna is anything which bars us from progressing in sadhna. So lazyness,

over sleeping etc. Tamoguni desires are those which stop us from doing Satoguna

work (like charity, service, love etc) or stop us on path of truth.

> (iv)why do you want to control the desires.

 

Desires are a prison, which does not let us go out of our Ego. Fill one

desire and it will be generating more...and then more

like through a bite of food to a crow and then more crows come and then more

and more..

Controling desires alone is not sufficient. It is first step there are many

other things to do

 

What ever path we chose, Pranayama, Yoga, meditation, tantra... all these

reduce the desires.

 

There is no need to force desires to stop.... let us do the sadhna and desires

will be controlled

THANKS FOR BEAUTIFULL ANSWERS

 

SORRY FOR INCONVENIENCE DUE TO MY POOR ENGLISH

 

 

Further Queries:

 

(i) Is it not true that " desire may also exist in a timeless world " .

 

(ii) Does the desires can be created by intellect also. If yes than please

share.

 

(iii) Do the God differentiates between Tamo guna and Sat guna and do the God

likes the people of Sato guna only.

 

What would you call to KUMBHKARAN - Sato Guni or Tamo Guni

 

(iv) Is it not possible that a strong desire sometimes reduces many desires.

Like for today my desire is to meditate for the whole day than other desires of

the whole day may be reduced.

 

(v) what is the meaning of " CONTROL OF DESIRES "

Intellect ? Desire starts from subconscious and is read by mind and analysed

by intellect, which allows action on desire or stops it due to environments....

that is the role of intellect. It does not start anything.

NO precisely, For God all gunas are ok..Here God takes Tamoguna as a barrier

between us and Him...that z all.

He was pure Tamoguni (impure tamo is different)... sleep is pure tamogun,

and it is not bad over all

Like for today my desire is to meditate for the whole day than other desires of

the whole day may be reduced.

Yes this is what Patanjali meant in his Yoga sutras. He tells to make one

desire strong to suppress other desirers and then leave that one

desire/sankalpa/thought too to become thoughtless.

Control of desires : we should be aware of the origin of desire and our Buddhi

should be strong enough to stop us from fulfilling that desire if it is bad for

our health or spirituality.
