Thought for the Day

 

The word 'Adhyatmic' or spiritual is used often by aspirants and preceptors. What exactly is implied by Adhyatmic? Is Bhajan or congregational prayer Adhyatmic? Or, does it involve Japa (repetition of God's name) and Dhyana (meditation)? Or, does it denote religious rituals and ceremonies? Or, does it extend to pilgrimages to holy places? No, no. These are all merely beneficial acts. Adhyatmic in its real sense relates to achieving or at least attempting to achieve two things: elimination of the animal traits still clinging to man and unification of the individual with the Divine.

(translated into German Marie-Stephanie Freiin von Elverfeldt)

 

Das Wort Adhyatmic oder sprituell wird von Aspiranten (Anwärtern) und Lehrern oft gebraucht. Was genau bedeutet spirituell? Ist ein Bhajan oder ein Gebet in der Gemeinde spirituell? Oder beinhaltet es Japa (das Rezitieren des Namens Gottes) oder Dhyana (Meditation)? Oder sind damit religiöse Rituale und Zeremonien gemeint? Nein, nein. Dies sind alles lediglich wohltätige Handlungen. Spirituell im wahren Sinn bezieht sich auf das Erreichen oder zumindest den Versuch, zwei Dinge zu erreichen: Beseitigung der tierischen Eigenschaften, die dem Menschen noch immer anhaften und der Vereinigung des Individuums mit dem Göttlichen.

(translated into Indonesian by Udayo Untarya Wijaya)

 

Para aspiran spiritual dan kaum guru sering mempergunakan istilah 'Adhyatmic' atau spiritual. Sebenarnya apa pengertian sebenarnya dari Adhyatmic? Apakah ia berarti Bhajan atau persekutuan doa? Ataukah Japa (pengulangan nama-nama Tuhan) dan Dhyana (meditasi)? Atau mungkinkah ia mengindikasikan ritual dan upacara keagamaan? Atau barangkali ziarah ke tempat-tempat suci? Tidak, tidak. Semua tindakan yang disebutkan tadi hanyalah berupa tindakan yang memberikan manfaat. Namun adhyatmic dalam konteks sebenarnya adalah merupakan jenis daya-upaya yang dilakukan guna mencapai paling tidak dua hal sebagai berikut, yaitu: eliminasi sifat-sifat kebinatangan yang masih bercokol di dalam diri seorang manusia serta unifikasi (penyatuan) Sang Ilahi dengan diri manusia.

( translated into Italian by Mabatini )

 

La parola ‘Adhyatmic’ viene usata frequentemente da aspiranti e precettori. Cosa significa esattamente? Adhyatmic è una preghiera congregazionale o sono Bhajans ? O coinvolge Japa ( ripetizione del Nome di Dio) e Dhyana (meditazione)? Oppure identifica cerimonie o rituali religiosi? O si estende anche a pellegrinaggi in luoghi Santi? No, no. Questi sono tutti atti benefici . Adhyatmic, nel suo vero significato, fa riferimento all’ottenimento o quanto meno al tentativo di ottenimento di due cose: eliminazione delle caratteristiche animali che ancora si aggrappano all’uomo e l’unificazione dell’individuo con il Divino.

 

 

 

 

(translated into Spanish by by Equipo Namo )

 

 

La palabra 'Adhyatmic' o espiritual es usada a menudo por aspirantes y preceptores. ¿Qué está exactamente implícito en lo Adhyatmic? ¿Lo Adhyatmic es un Bhajan o una oración en congregación? O, ¿supone ello Japa (repetición del nombre de Dios) y Dhyana (meditación)? O, ¿denota rituales y ceremonias religiosas? O, ¿se extiende hasta las peregrinaciones a lugares sagrados? No, no. Todos estos son meramente actos beneficiosos. En su sentido real, Adhyatmic está relacionado con lograr o al menos intentar lograr dos cosas : la eliminación de las características animales aún adheridas al hombre y, la unificación de lo individual con lo Divino.
