PURUSHA
SUKHTHAM
Real meaning of Purusha Suktham and not the one transliterated
by linguists
Divine Discourse begins -
Sound of manthra is what mind is attracted to
Meaning of the manthra is what the intellect is attracted to
Mind is always wavering so it has to be attracted, so magnet
wil keep mind not waver
Intellect needs to be illumined so meaning illumines the
intellect.
So we don’t just like tht recite manthras as a chant without
any meaning, that is wrong.
These manthras provide light and illumination to whole
worlkd. First to individual self, then to expand to whole world. That expansion
is called Vishnu. Kunta means constriction, vaikunta means no constriction.
When ur mind is contrsicted its kunta, when mind is not constricted its called
vaikunta. Mind is constricted by 2 things, consciousness of body and
consciousness of mind, these 2 are constrictions for us. When we go beyond body
and mind we are automatically in vaikunta. God doesn’t exist in grandeous place
in fact god wil exist in simple places , like jesus was born in manger, god was
born in prison, so god doesn’t live in vaikunta, when our body and mind is
constricted with I I I selfish, my thing my home, my relations , thes are all
constriction. Wen u care and share ur body and mind for sake of everybody else,
that vaikunta is that place of love all serve all.
Ekadashi means 11. What is significance of 11 asociated to
vaikunta ekadaasha
11 is the 0 sense, 5 karmendriyas and 5 jyanaendriyas, 5 tht
act and 5 tht perceive, we gain knowledge thru these 10. The other one is I so
total 11. When these 10 are focused on 1 that is illuminating them, the
enabler, the enjoyer, the witness is I, when we contemplate on that self, that
one doing and enjoying all this that is significance of vaikunta ekadashi.
Purpose of creating festivals is to have holy days, we do
not call festivals as merry, cause merry means partying, but our festivals are
holy cause it is for contemplating. So we don’t fall to our lower
consciousness. In sanathana dharma atleast 2 festivals wil be there every
month, atleast ekadashi and pournami minimum 2 are there. Ekadashi people fast
so it doesn’t fall below to the lower consciousness. Mnd wil collect dust same
with mind and intellect, so u have to cleanse it everyday, it wil collect rust
and dust, we wil begin to lose the reflection of our self, thts why wehave to
have anushtana. So every morning u have to wake up and have to do meditation
and chanting gayathri , these cleanses our faculties, our mind, our intellect.
The shanthi manthra thacham yora vrunimahe means I am invoking that energy that
is reuqred to keep everything in positivity
“sham”. Shankara means one whio is engaged in positive actions sham+kara
positive+actions one who gives postiveenss, auspiciousness, one who is
positive. If you radiant beam positivity in speech and mind and action then u r
shiva, if not u r shava.god is not making u go thru any problem, our own
actions and reactions come back and affect us , we go thru joblessness poverty
illness, we call it as trials and tribulations u have to be thankful as he is
cleaning us with those bad karma, u should only say thank you. We invoke gods
and tht iwl kil all ailments poverty and every suffering, if its not cured it
means u have to pray more, chant more, more positivity needed to eliminate tht
karma we have accumulated.
Gathum yagnya pathaye – am invoking by praising (gathum) the
sacrifice (yagnya) . Yagnya doesn’t simply mean putting sticks and ghee in
fire. U have to connect to the god, so golden age truly dawns on beautiful
earth. We have to go beyond context of just rituals. Yagnya means offering,
create a framewoek, create fire and keeping putting things into fire. Fire
converts it to something that cannot come back to regular original form. All is
burnt to ash, can ash become wood again, no. the wood transforms permanently.
Anything gets converted to vibuthi. Vibuthi transforms ourselves, you can offer
anything to fire, flowers all diff kinds of grains , samitha wood sticks ghee
etc. if it only turns into coal then its not use, it becomes black, u wash coal
with milk and water what happens, it doesn’t turn no, even if u wash it with
soap or anything it wil not become white at all. But if u put it back in fire,
it will burn fully and become white. Thts the only way for realization.
So Yagnya is invoking fire, in this invocation we keep
offering, that offered wil transform into something and cannot come back to
original form. Transform means complete changing permanent. Change is
temporary, transformation is permanent. Now we have 2 manthra
First we said invoking fire of positive consciuness, thach
cham yora vrunimahe – fire of supreme consciousness.
Gathum yagnyaya -- Now am going to sacrifice, what I am
going to put all my faculties into this fire, so we become transformed. We lose
our own individual identify, body and mind, our association to this ugly body and
mind, from this ugly cocoon we become a beautiful butterfly. For tht first u
have to give up the cocoon and say I am happy it is warm and cozy, nothing wil
happen, no realization. Egg-larva-coccon-butterfy thts the transformation. From
one stage to another going is transformation. We go through this same
transformation process. First we think this is me this body, I am from this
city , I am happy with my own little town, my own little self, khana peena sona
marna. Let me eat and cherish and be happy and perish.
but God did not give this life for cherish and perish but
cherish and also flourish. For tht we have to stop thinking we are little body,
we belong to this place, this relation etc. So we sacrifice our identify to
transform ourselves, not for transforing others but transforming ourselves.
Then god works thru us to do his task. That is the meaning of Gathum yagnyaya.
Sacrificing our identity.
Gathum yagnya pathayae – master of ceremonies, conductor of
this ceremony, I am praising this master, he has perfectly timed everything,
and he is the master thtis conducting this sacrifice, am praising him to whom
we pray “thy will be done”. When God says something we don’t say I wil do
later, when he says u do it right then, this is the will of yagnyapathi, the
master, that is surrender. Jesus said If it is thy will then I wil sacrifice my
body and mind for entire humanity. Hence he became jesus the body to Christ the
consciousness. This is the similarity of jesus and vaikunta ekadashi.this
purusha sukhtam is all about crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.
Gathum yagnyaya gathum yagnyapathayaey I praise this
sacrifice, I praise the master the conductor of this sacrifice.
All different faculties are in positive vibration. This
change this transformation is all going to positivity. People will be moved to
this positivity
-------******** no need to write in the book*****-----
People will be moved to this positivity, no one can escape
it, people will be forced to share with entire humanity. For fearful people
they will be afraid to lose their positions. Look whats happening in Europe,
fall of Greece and Spanish currencies, helped Netherland and Germany thus
sharing of wealth. When you say European union that means u have to share and
be united. People are sharing their wealth for the sake of all those that
cannot afford it. Same thing will happen everywhere, including US. Its law of
entropy, it wil diffuse and shared.
---***********---
For what – for Deivee Swasthi rashtunaha, - for all forces
to be in harmony.
Swasthir manushebyaha – may all humanity be in harmony.
Urdhvam jigathu bheshajam – let the plant go upward. Plant
is body, let spirit go from lower level of consciousness to high lever.
Shannaha asthu dwipade – let all beings with 2 legs (humans)
be happy and prosperous,
shan chathush pade -- may all 4 legged ones also happy
prosperous and auspicious.
These are not just hindu mantras, no not at all, anyone can
chant, hindu should not think it is his mantra, others shuld not think these
are hindu mantras. These are supreme mantras for entire humanity. This mantra
becomes manthra of peace, concordance of inner self with outer self.
Concordance is peace discordance is piece. Concordance of entire universe with
all beings to come together and invoke positive consciousness, enables
sacrifice and this willmake all beings live in harmony and peace.

Sept-28-1835 golden age actually started -- shirdi babas
birthday. His bday Sept 28th 1835 – it took this many years, 100+
years for transformation process after God came in human form. April -24-2014 (swamis
leaving his body) this mass consciousness has completely taken over and risen.
The supreme has sacrificed himself to accelerate the consciousness process,
sekarjis opinion is that (not official) this process acceleration is hindered
what will leader of leaders do, he will sacrifice himself.
If its golden age why is so much bad happening around the
world. Swami himself said its not tht violence has increased, but its been
reported now. How many newspapers facebook twitter reporting on the great work
done by Sathya sai devotees, peace corps, positive stuff bought to attention of
people. They are not shown in newspaper cause its not sensalization human mind
is attacted only to this negativity. For ex u goto a function, lets say many
come and wish u say hi, u wont remember them, lets say one person comes and
shouts at u or scolds u , u wil remember tht person forever, why, cause our
mind gets attacted to negativity. Recently there was gunning, sevral kids were killied
by the murdered, how many remember the kids names, but all remember the
murderes name. that is mind attracting to negativity.
So turn away from negativity, first thing is televisham, it
poisons our mind. Television. Refrain from attacting to negativity, so when we
gain positivity we don’t lose it in this.
------------second day-------
Thistath – means seated
Dashangulam –
This purusha suktham is one of the most important vedic
hymns. It’s the most auspicious and chanted very commonly everywhere in any
temple home and other places. Supreme hymn because it contains all 3 parts of
vedas. All 4 vedas are divided into 3 parts,. Samhita brahmana aranyaka.
Samhita means prayer , samyak + hita, that is collective prayer for peace of
world. Brahmana means all rituals associated with yagnya , how to conduct
yagnya is called brahmana, aranyaka means fundamental essence of sanatana
dharma, way of life of a human being. These 3 are the most important aspect of
veda. Descriptiong o how yaga is done is given in purusha suktham, collective
prayers is mentioned, fundamental wayof life is also mention in this hymn, so
this purusha suktham consists of all this.
First mantra is about who is the supreme being.
Prof goswami, hes a eminent scientist, he explains how
quntum phsyics is recognizing this purusha. Purusha here does not mean one
person. Not body. There is only one purusha, it means there is only one being.
Whether man or woman or animal everything that has chaitanya in it that
consciousness associated in it is a being. This being is only one, the division
is classified from this one being. Everything came from this being, which is
referred as purusha. The non-being is also purusha, becayse achaitanya is also
purusha cause both kinetic and potential energy , the energy is same. In
nonbeings chaitanya is not latent, the one with life has expressions but
nonbeings it is there but not latent. In this wood the chaitanya is not
expressed, but in us its expressed so we are able to move and function.
What that means is there is only one thing, that is supreme
consciousness. And tht is IN everything. Everything is brahman is incorrect,
brahman is everything is correct. Why everything is not brahman, how can there
be idiots in this world, there are lower level beings. In them brahman is
covered in sheaths of ignorance and impurity so its not expressed. So the right
way to say is brahman is in everything, for ex ring is there, chain is there,
ornaments are there, but the fundamental thing is gold. We call everything by a
name given to its body but from gold came everything. This consciousness called
gold is purusha. Ring is name and form given, chain or ring are just names and
forms. The essence is purusha. All rest are materializations of this gold
called purusha. Purusha is supreme consciousness, from this consciousness came
matter and energy. This consciousness is fundamentally expressed as only 2, one
is potential energy other is kinetic energy. Energy is indestructble, u can
only change one energy to another energy u cannot destroy energy itself. The
purusha now expresses itself as 2 different forms potential energy reffered as
shiva, kinetic energy referred as shakthi, this shiva shakthi swarupa is only
one. This potential energy is latent, stone, metal, it has energy but its
latent. When you give kinetic energy to it there is expression. Therefore
Shakti takes potential energy and intermix one from another. What flowers has
to wither, what born has to die, what is died has to come back to form, this
cyckle of conversion or merge and emerge, constant intermix of kinetic and
potential energy is the whole game of divine consciousness. This is time
immemorial this is the game of cosmos.the 5 elements of nature come together
and express in ourself, the five elemets come and merge and form a body and
then also emerges and goes back into 5 elements. Ther is no escape from it.
When u born the body , cremation, all space becomes space, fire becomes fire,
water element becomes water, air element merges with element. This merge and emerge
is the play of the cosmos. The only difference between merge and emerge is the
letter e. this e = energy. Merge emerge happens because of energy, the
consciousness fundamentally expresses itself as energy, this consciousness is
called purusha.
Sahasra sheersha purushaha – means purusha is tht
concsiouness, the gold has become into all kinds of things. Purusha has
expressed itself in many names and forms. Sahasra seersha million heads,
saharakshaha means million eyes, sahasra paath is million limbs.
Sa bhumim vishwatho vruthva – he is now pervading, occupied,
he is the consciousness, he is not male reference here. In this context its
consciousness. If a elephant was writing he would call this one as big
elephant, if a mosquito werites this HE wil be a big mostuiqto, its just a
reference not to be taken into exact reference. Vishwatho vruthwaha, occupying
entire cosmos.
Athya thistath dashangulam – entire space is in 10 fingers,
dasha angulam, infinite consciousness expressed as million beings occupying entire
universe is all present in exactly 10 fingers. How is it possible? Does it make
sense? Sekar ji asked swami this question. Swami in his style said if you go on
top of mountain u see a beautiful panoramic videw, whole thing in front of view
from the summit of mountain, but u take camera and point it to panoramic view,
whole thing comes in a few pixels, swami asked this question. Entire beautiful
is now emberedded in pixels, now picture has that huge space, mountains
eveyrhting in it,. That divine consciounes is present between your 10 fingers,
swami put 5+5=10 fingers from navel to bottom of heart of heart, its just space
of 10 fingers, that is Padma kosha, heart of lotus, hrdhyama chapyadhomukham
right below your heart, nabya mupari thistathi, on top of navel cavity.
That entire shloka expreses how the entire cosmos is
embedded within you. put ur hand like that – swami shows
This is what budha realized as aum mani padhme hum, that is
the entire universe is present within that 10 fingers space , between your
navel to bottom of your lotus heart. From his bottoim of his heart he realized
entire universe is present within us. We are searching this in church mosque
temple and all outside places. We are suffering from happiness and sadness ,
this entire consciouenss is manifested withn us. Athya thishtath dhashangulam,
one should mediate upon, that this divine consciousness is in me and its all
pervading.
Yath bootham yacha bhavyam, utha amruthathva + syeshaanaha
.. yadhanne nathi rohathi
When u prepare a corporate presentation, many of the
corporates wont listen to efveything they need a summary. The first few shlokas
are like tht , just an executive summary. First is but a executive summary,
then comes details.
First is space. Next is time, whole universe is space and
time.this purusha evadhagam = that everything sarvam know that whatever u need
to know is that this divine consciunsess Is everything. Yadh bootham, that one
purusha is here and now. Yacha bhavyam whatever u r realting to now, it is
divine consciousness only. Time aspect is divne cnsciouness too. Utha
amruthawas , not just that (utha means) in addition to that, isha na ha means
immortaility. Not time beound. Yath bootha, whatever past, yacha bhavam
whatever u r relating to now, uthamruthathvana whatever u can not imagine in
the context of time, all are this ishana. This ishana is amruthathwa
immortality, divine consciousness. Yadhanne nathi rohathi, means one that is
jada thathva, that is one that is expressed. Anna means whatever is manifested,
anna is not food here, he is beyond all that is expressed. Athi rohathi, beyond
everything , annena athirohathi, that is even exrpssed beyond what is
manifested. What all u need to know is divine consciousness is everything,
sarwam, past, relating to now, and what is even beyond what u can relat to, and
whatever u think its beyond all that.
If you think god is this and that, u only relate to only
that, even in this we have problems, but it is the divine consciousness is even
beyond that is expressible. Incomprehensible in time or space, but he is divine
principle is present within 10 fingers.
Vyashti – individual connecting
Samashti coolective consciousne
Srusthi – creation consciousness
Parameshti – superme consciousness
U go and ask for a bangle to goldsmith, goldsmith asks how
much gold he needs. We keep talking about name and form, divine only looks at
consciousness, for him its only gold. For him everything is himself,
manifested, so he will simply love. He loves you as he loves himself, that’s
why swami calls everyone as bangaru, meaning gold, we ar ornaments of gold, he
doesn’t look at people as sinners, or greate people , he only says ebodinements
of divine love, premathma swarupalara, this embodinemtn means we are embdeed
divinity within this form called body, he sees this divinity only and not body.
What we do is we look for him here and there, forgetting he is within us. What
we are forgetting is the divine consciousness, purusha evedhagum sarvam, know
tht by which knowing you wil know everything, but we are looking outwards, who
are you wats ur name where did u come from, how much rich u r , wat stocks u
have how rich u r. swami says beautifully, who am I whats my intent of creation
where am I going, wats purpose of life etc, you should ask that who am I, then
u r connecting inside, if you ask about others outer bodys u r not connecting
to swami within you.
Budha stopped and asked the question why do we suffer, our
job is to fed the people who are fedup. Not mockering service it’s a great
seva, but budha went one step ahead, He
asked one imp question, why do we suffer, he became sidhartha and found out ,
we suffer because of desires.
So in this shloka Divine consciousness is first space, then
its explained as beyond time, immortality, from him came immortality, its
beyond comprehension of intellect and mind.
Manthra is flowing energy, all manthra, ethavan asya mahima
– al ethavan all this, is asya mahima, is his grace. Everything manifested is
his grace, his is divine consciousness, everything is manifested from him. From
divine consciousness you can choose to make anything and everything you want.
Whether nose ring or ear ring or necklace from gold u can make anything you
want. What is manifested is his grace, from that grace comes all this. If block
of gold is just lying there it is dormant, it is not enjoyable, you will not
show a block of gold, but you show ring, ear and ornaments. That is joy
forever. In creating this universe out of grace he created universes so you can
connect to his divine play.
Nasyam means snuffing powder for sneezing, so its not
ethavanasya mahima its actually it is ethavan asya mahima J not snuffings grace
but his grace. Atho jayaguscha purushaha – means -> however everything you
are seeing coming and going is coming from him and going into him. Its like
your mom wears bangle, now its old fashioned, she will take mothers bangle to
goldsmith and make it fashionable. What has come from has gone back and come again,
ja means come, go means go,. Jagath means one that comes and goes. Emerges and
merges, that is the definition lingam, “leeyathe gamyathe ithi linga”. leeyathe
means merging, gamayathe means emerging this is lingam, its not just a oval
thing, it’s a symbolic thing of evolve resolve and dissolve. Evolution,
resolution and dissolution, evolution means bangle is coming, resolve means its
in a beautiful form and shape and name, dissolve means time has come to change
of the form so it goes back into gold, only to come back again as another form.
For us to lose identity we hav formed, its very difficult og
et rid off, I am American, I am indian, I am this shape, I am this color, so
you should not be attached to it. But be connected to it, it’s a form so connection
is fine but not attachment.
Padasya viswho boothani – pada means one quarter, from just
one quarter of this divine consciousness, only 25% from this came vishwa
boothani, the entire univesr, all beings abnd universe , came only from this 25% of purusha,. The remaining
75% is still to be manifested, is immortal and somehwer else, its beyond me. ¾
is stil unjmanifest and immortal. To comprehend to universe in one lifteim its
not possible, how can we talk about it, so swami said entire humanity put together
from past present future, all of you collectively try to put effort to
understaned me you cannot understand me., because its still only ¼ so cannot
understrand swami who is full. These mantras are experience, rishis are not
writing this, this came as a an experience to them.
Not even angstrom unit 10 to power of minus 8 cm is angstrom
unit. What they saw in moon how much time did they spend on tht moon, how can
he see ful moon, then swami manifested the moon in his hand, see the entire
moon and see whats inside, one fellow saw outside and saw no moon there, swami
said I created the moon now I willed it here with me so its here. Swami is
sunlight, you don’t need a candle. Sarwa devatha atheetha swarupa – that is
swami, all gods goddesses all creation came from swami. Not a single avatar
came at the cusp of a yuga. Swami came at this cusp of kali yuga. If swami
doesn’t do a miracle that is a miracle. This monkey mind wants to keep on
hearing upon miracle upoin miracle, curing a cancer is not a big deal. He
cancels cancer easily, to comprehend a little bit of incredible divinity to
understand that divine consciousness is what purusha suktham is saying.
Everything is his grace. But if you are connected only to things manifested
aroud u , u wil be suffering, cause wat comes and goes is also him, it will all
continue. ¾ of him amrutham, immortal above and beyond.
How infinity is explained.. shirid baba used to goto a
garden everyday garden lendi baag, he used to take clay ,make pot , then comes
back after walk and pour waters and make it clay again. So nana asked him why
are u making it a pot and again making it a clay. Shirdi baba says is clay in
pot or pot in clay. For ex u have empty space, now u build 4 walls aroud it and
call it a home, but really it is still space only. But since u put a wall you
call it it is my home, but its space only. You are seeing home I am seeing
space which is what it originally is. Space is inifinte, u r calling it home
etc so that is infinity. If you sit as a frog, koopastha mandukam, in a well
there is a frog. Frog says wahta
beautiful universe within the wall, it cannot comporehend the universe
outside. So 3/4th remaining means is only a indicator of what is
incomprehensible. You can say clay in pot, pot in clay, Baba said its clay in
the clay. Pot is temporarty, name and form is coming and going
Thts why Vedanta talks about mataksha, gatakasha chidakasha
hrudkasha… Akasha means space – matakasha mata means place, gata means pot,
space in a pot , Chidakasha hrudakasha.
So don’t think you are big, don’t be egoistic. Think about
how you are in this home, how small is your ohme in the county, how small is
country in your state, how small is it when
you compare to your country, how small is it compared to world , how
small is it compared to the galaxy , how small is it compared to galaxies of
galaxies. But still all this is ONE. Tht is the point.
---------third day-----------Jan-6-2013------------
Purusha suktham is about how creation came into existence,
it came from only one thing calle supreme consciousness.
--some physics -- Just like how quantum physics now says
everything came from one. In the context of consciousness only ¼ god manifested
as matter, ¾ is unmanifested. Now we have string theory, eveyrthign even a
thought is a string. Electrons, protons, positrons etc are all nothing but
strings
How many particles are describes in physics. Innumerable,
now they are called as string. A string is anything tht has an energy packet.
When u do an experiment, prof goswami, quantum physics is becoming a
philosophy, every thought of ours is like a particle. veda is inner physics
nothing to do with one religion so we are discussing this. ----
There is only one consciouinsess tht manifested into
potential unmanifested, kinetic energy is manifested. For ex water is stored in
tank is potential,when u put a pipe and it falls down its kinetic energy cause
it has movement. Kinetic energy is a small part of the potential energy, cause
its depended on the pipe size and length. Kinetic energy is called shakthi,
Potential energy is shiva. Kinetic and potential energy together unmanifested
that is shiva-shakthi.
Ethavan asya mahima – al of this is grace of this supreme
consciousness
Atho jayaguscha purushaha- don’t get carried away with this,
cause its only ¼ purusha is much bigger
Duality of separation of matter and energy, its only
God created everything, for god to create something he
needed matter, so we need god and matter to require something. For ex if you
want to make chapathi u need dough and water. So there are 2 things. How can we
understand that God did not need anything to create this world ? the answer is
spider, how spider generates web, who gives it to spider. Spider creates web
from within. Spider doesn’t need external thing, it uses its own saliva to
create web, spider did not find a separate material, it created it from within
itself. Spider in the center, from center to one end of web, keeps weaving, and
goes around and completes the web creation. then after playing and playing it goes
to the center and drops from the center of web to down. After sometime it
starts retracting itself back into itself. The web is consumed back into the
spider. Spider only used a little bit of saliva to create this web, same way
God created all this cosmos from within him, all of this evolution came from
there. Once god decides its time he dissolves. So this is what God does --
Evolves-resolves-dissolves that is Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva. That is his task.
What we are talking about God is manifestation of energy in many many different
ways. No limitation to manifestation of this energy. Everything that is seen is
resolving from this supreme consciousness,
How did divine one create eveyrhting
Thripaadh – three fourths
oordhava – means above
purusha – consciousness
bhavath means manifestation or formed. Only 1/4 is utilized
by him to be born,
padhoos yeha bavath punaha
all matter is created now I am going to enter as life force
into everything,
thatho vishwan vyakaramath – he decided to pervade the
entire cosmos , god entered into all this matter . Sashana means alive anashane
means indestrible -- sa shana (alive and
destroyable) anashane (indestructible) abhi – he decided by becoming alive in
some and latent in some. So all life has to open grow wither fall and die, it
has to do all that.
Consciousness energy, God is not a person here. First word
is God, second word, divine energy, third word is consciousness all these are
the same. ¼ thripath
again he decided to manifest itself 1.4 – all was created
then energy entered, some became active, some stayed dormant. Some had
liveliness, u can notice the chaitanya like flowing river or flying or leaves
rustling, kinetic energy is predominant. In some no kinetic energy. So
everything is god, but some has kinetic and some doesn’t that is how creation
happened.
In rudram – hiranyacha kugunshiala- we say hes in mountain
dry twig in the path fields that people can walk and people cannot walk etc, we
are saying he is in everything. He is tht conscioness.
These are the five characteristics, attributes - Birth
growth movement decay death.
First one is ¼ th he entered and manifested. What happened
after that ? that is being discussed now
Tasmath virada jayatha – later from this a beautiful
incredible cosmos universe came into existence. Virat means cosmic form.
Viradho adhi purushaha = from him he created a son, that son is called
brahma.whole universe came from only one
thing. His spark of divinity in everything. in some the spark is manifested,
when we do more sadhana, cleanse cleanse the lamp, if light is there no use If
there is dirt outside. Similarly divine light is within us but we have to
cleanse it with sadhana and manana. If u don’t shine it then the spark of
divinity is not exposed.
From this divine father came a son. Virajo adhi purusha,
similar to chirstianity. In Hinduism we can call is Brahma. We can correlate it
to Christ, in Christianity. virajo adhi purushaha - From divine father came
into existence a son. Sa jathaha athyarichyatha – after tht he also pervaded.
Paschath- after that, Bhoomi- earth, Atha- and , Puraha –
all the bodies.
Now creation is completed. Entire creation has to be sustained
now. God now provide material to sustain this whole universe. He used the son
to sustain, Christ sacrificed himself for the world. Sacrifice has to come from
within from individual. How am I going to sustain all this creation, all
elemnts have to be given from this divine energy. So he sacrificed and became
everything, so God became the wind, the water, the fire, what we eat food is
god, sun , moon everything around is god. Everything that sustains us is God.
Yathpurshena havisha Deva yagnya mathan vatha - so all gods used
him his manifestations sacrificed it to create things for sustenance. Thy will
be done. We have to sacrifice him for
sustenance (him is not a person, sacrifice is not killing). Same way Son Christ
said use me as sacrifice to sustain this creation. He came forward. Same way Christ
was sacrificed for the world.
Greeshma idhma sharadhdhavihi
Havisha – sacrifice
By conducting
All gods started the sacrificial ceremony , they needed the
material, material will come after God comes into being. So they started using
Vasantho spring as ghee, summer as food, sharath autumn used as sticks for fire
as fuel. Seasons became the sacrificial fire. These seasons have a pattern of
creation associated with them. For ex most of food is created in summer, life
rejuvenation acts in spring, and in autumn everything starts falling and
recycling is needed. This is the sacrifice mother nature is going through too,
when lights starts increainsg Jan-14 mother nature gets ready fr spirng which
is fuel. Then food is made in summer, after everything is done sacrifice is
done by autumn, fall, gives up to sustain creation. All year around sacrifice.
But humans don’t have sacrifice, u eat al thorugh the season, turn the body
into excess obesity , cholesterol control and drugs. Mother nature goes thru
sacrifice. You can only plant at one time, only one thing happens at one
season. Humans shold learn sacrifice from here.
Now we have to put boundary, pur briks, then get materials
to perform sacrificial fire. saptasya sanparidhyaha –they used seven things to
create boundary for framework. 5 elements+sun (day)+moon (night)formed the 7
boundaries. That is the whole universe became the sacrificial chamber. The
entire creation is therefore a sacrifice, day in and day out. Real homa and
yagnya is wen we actually sacrifice, thrisaptha 21 things (3 times 7) were used
to sacrifice. What are the 21 things.
Deva yagthanvana
Abangnan purusham
Animal needs to be sacrificed in the sacrifice finally. Anything
that is bound to something and u r controlled by it, that is an animal.
Anything bound and controlled by something is animal.
Animal tied was son of God. They tied him to a post that’s
what its saying abagnam purusham pashum.
Christ body is now tied in order to raise mass consciousness,
the body of divine person was used. Christ is conscoiness he is not affected.
Sacrifice is divine thing, divine person sacrificed so he became role model by
cutting I on the cross. The body was tied down as an animal, not Christ. He can
escape whenever he wanted he had al the power but the will of God had to be
done. All gods demigods were watching the sacrifice that the sacred person was
doing. Thus purusha suktham is similar to christs story, it talks about
sacrifice just like christs sacrifice himself.
21 prenset within ourselves. 5 karmandriya (sense organs) +
5 jyanaendriya (perceptions) + mind + 5 sheaths + 5 pancha pranas
Inner senses – manas(mind), budhi(intellect), chittha
(conscious), ahamkara (ego), jyatha (one that stores information)
--------Jan-13-2013------------------
ukhtam means elaborated, Sukhtam means beautifully
elaborated.. purusha suktham is about elaborating beautifully about
consciousness. It manifests in 3 ways
conscious: to be aware of body and surrounding , conscious
about your body, your clothing, that you don’t look good. How you appear is
conscious
conscience: something little deeper, thinking, it doesn’t
appear physically, but its about you, something hidden something within,
related to mind
consciousness: beyond the scope of instinct and intuition.
This consciousness is called God- period. Consciousness is being, consciousness
is God, from consciousness came everything. Its like Spider and its web that we
discussed earlier.
Everything has consciousness, even wood and metals have
consciousness, but it is latent. In animal and man consciousness is manifested,
its not latent. What is manifested is only a tiny part of this entire
consciousness. Lot of it is not manifested. Lalitha sahasranama has Vyaktha
avyaktha swaroopini, vyaktha means manifested, avyaktha means unmanifested
consciousness. What is to sustain those, what this divine consciousness, we
have to create something and sacrifice it. This creation and sacrificing is the
Christ consciousness, called the son of consciousness.
Tasmath virada jayatha viraja ..matho puraha. -- From this
consciousness came another embodiment, the Son of God. Once this is son is
created, then divine being said son sacrificed himself in the yagnya to create
lot of other things. The purpose of divine living including humans is ONLY for
sacrificing for others. If you live a life of unsacrifice, we have to keep
coming back until we get the awareness of sacrifice.not thru any other thing we
can attain immortality, only thru sacrifice we can get immortak
Na karmana na prajaya na dhanena, thyage naike Amruthathva manasha
(thyagen ekae- only sacrifice)
– one can get illumination. Not thru karma or actions, not
thru progeny not through wealth can we become immortal. Only thru sacrifice we
become immortaility.
Na Karmana – without expectation on end result, that is
karma yoga, tht is the beautiful work cause tht is sacrifice, engaging in an
action witout expecting anything in return. That leads us to cleansing.
Na prajaya – thru becoming parents we understand we are jus
guardian of these beautiful souls, god has planned something for these beings.
But we get caught in the maya tht we own the child, we say we invest in the
kid, cause we expect that they will do something back for us. don’t be caught
up in maya, do what is best for them without expecting anything. If you keep
acting with expectations with ur kid then it binds u, binds u so much tht u wil
be attached so much, that even if the kid is a wasted guy, the parent will come
back to help this kid because of his attafchment
Na dhanena – greatest attachment is through wealth which
will bind more and more.
It is only thru sacrifice u can attain the supreme. God
himself demonstrates this, sacrifices demonstrates thru so many different
thigns becomes the 5 human values. Son of god said it is my fathers will that I
shall offer myself in this sacrifice.
Yath purushena havisha – all the gods decided to conducted
the sacrificial offering.,
Vasaantho asya seedhajyam – the spring became ghee
Grishma the summer became the food
Sharath – autumn became the fire sticks
For creating homa kunda – seven things became the boundary
of sacrificial thing. Those are 5 elements and sun and moon. Thrisaptha is 3
times 7 that is 21. We went thru 19
5 sense organ – nose, eyes, mouth, ears, skin.
5 sense of perceptions – sense of smell, see, hear, touch
(feel) , taste
Actions done by karmendriya Vak ,pani ,padha ,payuhu,upastha
This results in 5 perpetual knwoeldge =
Listening,feeling,seeing ,smelling ,tasting
Even in the womb of mother babies hear, first perception is
hearing. Voice is recognized by the baby.
Second perception is feeling (touch) , the baby recognizes
the cuddle. They put their thumb to feel.
Third perception is seeing. Fourth perception is tasting.
Fifth perception is smelling.
A beautiful story of a guy – prahlada started listening to
Lord when he was in mothers womb. Hearing is the first perception.
We go through the day using sun and moon, so without these 7
there is no life.
So boundary of sacrificial fire is these 5 elements of
nature+ sun+moon = 7.
Among the 21 - The first 5 elements do the work, the sense
organs karmendriya, the next 5 gather information jyanendriya, then the five
pranas (one for inhaling oxygen, exhaling co2 and others, circulating,
digestion, retaining, (bicarbonate in the blood retains the oxygen and co2 in
the blood) hiccups comes due to space in the lungs, imbalance, what is in blood
and space of lungs, so either hold breath till it balances it out, or drink
water and dilute it. Ofcourse you can shock the hell of the guy and he and he
forgets hiccups.
pancha prana
Pancha pranan: prana inhaling) , apana (exhaling) , vyana (spreading)
, udana (excreting) samana (digesting or balancing).. imbalance in any of these
air will cause disease.
(actually there are 10 the remaining 5 are naga kurma
krukara datta dananjaya) – these are sub life forces – not in pancha koshas as
such
The next 5 (15-20) are subtle
Mind (manas) , intellect (budhi) , ego (ahamkara) ,
conscience (cognizance) (chitha) and memory (chintha).
The last one 21st is dharma (or lack of it which
is called adharma), with these the gods doing the yagna.
Our boundaries are the 5 elements of nature, we cannot abuse
this nature, we will get into trouble if we do that. Saptasya san paridhayaha –
means these are the boundaries for our living. The 5 elements and the time
manifested as day and night cannot be misused. Hence swami said time waste is
life waste, ceiling on desires is to we don’t step beyond our boundaries in
using the elements of nature.
Samidha krutha ha – samidha is the twig which means its for
sacrifice, god gave this body for sacrifice. Your life will become a sacrifice
yagna being conducted by God if you live like this.
How do you sacrifice your mind – not think about useless or
waste of time. At a later spiritual stage in life even thinking good things is
waste of time because you shold stop think, there is no ceiling on thinking so
swami puts a ceiling by saying too much thinking leads to desire. If you want
to think about somebody think good, then you are using thought for useful good
purpose. If we think about a person randomly then we are thinking unncesarily
attaching our thoghts to this person.
The old budhist monk story – where the old sage swam and
rescued the beautiful lady, after 10miles the youg person is asking the why did
you save tht youg beautiful lady from the river, you carried her and swam
across how can you do that. Old monk says I carried her and saved her and left
her but you are still carrying her, you are carrying her more than me. I
carried her for a purpose and left her once its over, but you are carrying over
forever.
The lifeforce gets decreased if we keep thinking, people become
slow, they canot think fast act fast, this is actual meditaion to rewind and
not think is the ultimate meditation. Sacrificing the thought is how we can
dissolve the mind or sacrifice the mind. Use the tool after you finish using
the tool, we keep the tool in garage once we are done. Same way god gave these
faculties to use as tools and leave it when neeed, not be used by the tool. God
uses these things as tools , but we are bound we are used by the tool. He uses
it so hes liberated.
Thrisaptha samidha krutha…Deva ..agnan purusham pashum
Literal meaning of sholoka is - They tied this son of god
animal to a post.
And some wrongly translated this to “Offering of animal in
the sacrifice” goat, horse, bull. These are the 3 animals within us – these are
not animals outside. goat stands for stubbornness and stupidity. Goat doesn’t
have common sense. So devotee sacrifice your stubbornness and stupidity. Bull
stands for ego, and no awareness. Swami calls everyone dhurnapotha meaning
buffalo, no awareness of surrounding. There is no integration of your own self
with surrounding, make sure you sacrifice your bull non-awareness into the yagna. Last animal is horse, the
horses are blinded so they don’t devitate from the path, they don’t stray, when
you have a mind that doesn’t have focus running around without focus. Today one
guru, next day another guru, then to another guru, or today one manthra
tomorrow another manthra, keep changing, you have to sacrifice that vice. Pashu
is sacrificed means one that is bound or tied to something is sacrificed, here
the man is not sacrificed, but his animal qualities are sacrificed. Without
leash dog runs aroud al the place, when u tie the animal u control it…
Everything bound and control is an animal. What this mantra
means they tied him to a post. Abhagnan purusham pashum. Just to remind you –
first to repeat like parrot, second is put your mind and faculty behind it and
recite it, try to understand and say it.
What happened after crucifixion is the beauty of it. What
happens after the tying and sacrifice, that is the most beautiful part. The
pain or pleasure is associated only to those who are associated with the body.
The supreme principle of divine being is sacrifice, that is all it is about.
The sacrifice is done willfully, jesus willfully surrendered to the soldiers.
He could have escaped easily but he willfully sacrificed which we will
contemplate next Sunday.
Once the son of god is sacrificed, from that sacrificial
fire came a beautiful being. Purusham jathamagraha. (jatha means born) First
came this beautiful being. This is called as resurrection. They did the
crucifixion and from there came a beautiful being came out of yagna, then it
started pouring from the sky right after the crucifixion. Barhishi proukshan
means They took water and sprinkled on this being. Tena deva ayajantha, all
devas and spiritual beings watched this. sajyas and rishis continued yagna
after the being came out. Everything said in the mantra makes a lot of
symbolism with Jesus Christ. Never misuses the faculty and mother nature that
is the vedic way of living, thanking god for every thing provided, every
element of nature is manifested around us and we have to apply
limit/boundary/ceiling around it, then we live a life of sacrifice. All the 21
faculties that are given to us should be used for sacrifice. They have to used
for something useful for others, then we are doing yagna. Gratitude servitude
and attitude of knowing our boundaries of our life and faculties is the way to
live. Be aware Be Alert – baba, be aware this is given to you, this body is a
rent temporary living. Its not yours. You have to maintain the house because
it’s the masters property. Use this with gratitude. Saying thank you and doing
everything is the meaning of naivedyam. Naivedyam is not about giving food to
god in a plate, it means thanking God for providing us.
When I slip when I fall when I stray away, we call for
swami. prayer is actually gratitude, saying thank you to God. Thrisaptha
samidha krutaha – knowing the boundary of time and space and nature, we offer
our faculties, it means when a thought comes is it thought promoting my ego, is
it boasting my ego and selfishness then that thought you should sacrifice, such
words and acts should be sacrificed by not letting it out. It is even more
great when you do the action by offering it to God, as mentioned in gita. You
do something but don’t get attached to the result of it. Even if your dharma if
you sacrifice that is the ultimate sacrifice. Cut the I across and cross the
ego and sacrifice, now the cross has become the holy symbol. When we offer that
ego – one is power, second is desire, third is ego. These are the 3 . no human
being is living today without one of this agendas. When we actually do our act
without any expectation then purusham jagrathaha, we are no longer the body or
the mind. One who is working doing is not this ego but we become the witness to
perform the actions. First we chant the mantra, then mantra chants the mantra,
then mantra chants you. You will witness the supreme being within me, all faculties goes inside, like the
turtle pulls all the legs and goes into a shell and meditates symbolically, and
it lives forever. First we do a good act, preceded by thought and word, we then
offer the same as a gratitude. The number of thoughts reduces as we think if
it’s a good thought, word deed and do. Then sadhya rishayaschaye - our
faculties become the Sadhyas rishis and the sages and continue to do the yagna
as a witness.
It is the right action if its in the intent of sacrifice.
The rent we pay to god to live in this body is love all serve all, no other
rent. Duty without love is deplorable, duty with love is desirable, love
without duty is divine. Here dharma is described as duty. We are bound by the
time and space is dharma, like you are the wife sister daughter doctor
engineer, that is dharma, duty. That duty without love is deplorable, that duty
with love is desirable, but doing that with love and not with an eye on the
fruit, even of that dharma is divine. Krishna says – sarva dharman parithyajya,
mam ekam sharanam vraja – love without duty, it doesn’t mean don’t do work and
sit and do pooja, no its not that. Just like sun shining without any duty, on
weed , crop, fruit tree, everywhere, that is love, it doesn’t judge and act, that
is love without duty without an eye on the outcome or end result.
Swami has explained it very very simply like this, all these
vedas and complex stuff explained by swami. Its like putting banana in mouth,
what swami says is veda, not what veda is what swami says. Whatever swami says
becomes the veda.
When we are operating on that context of gratitude and
servitude and attitude whatever we do becomes useful whatever we think becomes
useful – for that person there is no bound by dharma. He is not hindu islam
Christian jew etc, whatever he does is dharma. That’s why swami said he never
established Hinduism or islam or Christian etc. we should not try to imitate
ramana or Ramakrishna or aurobindo and keep saying I am god I am god - when you
are love and nothing but love then you are not bound.
Every person has their own self, Peter went to heaven and
god said he has a question – peter says I know the question, you are going to
ask me why did you not live like moses or jesus. God says no that is not my
question, my question is why did you not live like peter. Everyone is
individual, has their own self. Tham barhishi proukshan, sprinkling of water is
awareness coming out, we watch the awareness coming out. All this time I was
thinking I am doctor I am scientist musician engineer etc, no longer any of
those boundaries, you can be anything but it is about serving the society,
sacrificing the body and mind. Some people chose to exercise the right given to
them, some people don’t know about it, it doesn’t matter what you do but how
you do it, the attitude servitude and gratitude makes it divine.
Into this into which everything is sacrificed, after this
being has come out, then came prushadhajyam – curd (prushadh) and (dhajyam)
ghee, curd and ghee came out. Tasmat sarvas – everything is offered. After he
has come out, then came ghee mixed with curd. Then came all different animals
birds and beings. That’s the literal meaning of this shloka. But whats the true
meaning ? what is the meaning of everything came out after the he was offered
in the sacrifice. The inner secret is if you imagine all this awareness of
beings and negativity keeps building over a point of time, over and over again,
negativity is so high, divine one comes and sacrifices himself making negativity
falls below and only positivity rises. What exists after is positivity. Right
after cusp of bhagawans body leaving a new yuga started. There is a shift in
consciousness that happened. It doesn’t mean everyone will become rishis. Now
many beings are more enlightened, many beings are more positive, many things
dawned after swamis left. When Christ sacrificed the same thing happened. Sept
28 1835 shirdi baba came into avatarhood, that is time for prepping the next
human consciousness. After this sacrifice tasmay yagnat sarvahuthaha, curd and
ghee means food that is sanctified came out. Let’s do culinary class now. First
milk is boiled and cooled, then put a little curd into it so the milk also
becomes curd. When we put curd we are actually putting inoculum – it has a
bacteria called lacto bacelaite that makes food consumable.there is a
concentration of bacteria in inoculum, they start breaking down the lactose,
the milk sugar, and start fermenting that sugar. All the acidity keeps
increasing, where the acidity comes to a high point and precipitates at
isoelectric point, now it separates itself from fat, protein and fat separate
and broken down sugars form. If we have to make ghee out of this we keep
concentrating the fat particle away from the water and keep churning the milk
the fat becomes become butter, and boil the butter it becomes ghee. This small
curd we are adding is the culture that we are adding to the milk, is the
culture to get ourselves reformed. Curd is more expensive than milk, ghee is
most expensive of all. When we are cultured, and then we offer our cream of
actions and thoughts – god goes for this butter, chitha chora, navaneetha
chora. Those who have gone thru the transformation of churning, reformed – the
best comes out of the yagna. He doesn’t go for milk, not even the butter but he
goes for the milk. First transform, then sacrifice, love without duty, whatever
u do becomes sacrifice. Daily activities have not changed actually, get up do
work, do seva, do bhajan, goto sleep etc
That’s what dalai lama said in Stanford years ago – sekarji
asked lama wat happens after transformation. After transformation its chopping
the wood and carrying the water. Chopping wood is transformation, undergoing
the learnings, transformation, before you are not paying attention to yourself.
Once you do the sacrifice, you are now applying different principles of living.
The most important aspect of life is prushadhajyam – transformation to ghee and
curd. All animal qualities are sanctified. You are now applying faculties in a
very different manner. Post resurrection of jesus, post resurrection of our own
jiva, that becomes the essence of our living. During churning the curd comes
out, but after that comes butter.
2013_3_3-Purusha Suktam ->
Eke cho bhayadhatha is actually – ubhayadhathaha.
Jesus is called THE Christ, not just Jesus Christ. THE means
hes already present. The Christ consciousness is already present in everyone of
us. Creation happens before the sacrifice and after the sacrifice. Yagna is
simply a ritual but what is associated with the ritual is the spirit. Therefore
when you associate spirit with the ritual then it becomes spiritual.
Spirit+ritual only becomes spiritual.
SPI + RIT+ UAL = Total 9 characters. 9 means indestructible
, its indestructible number, multiples of 9 always add to 9. That is we can
multiple any number and add the digits it wil become only 9.
Spirit is only 6 characters, ritual is only 6 characters, 6
is a godly number but spiritual is 9 which only means its indestructible. This
mantra has spirit aspect of it, there is a ritual aspect of it, when you use
this mantra with both spirit and ritual then you become indestructible because
u get the essence of it. If you just learn the ritual u r caught up in the maya
only. Tasmat yagnat sarva huthaha – everything came out of this ritual. First
prushth+thajyam , curd mixed with ghee came out. Then came out
pashugusthaguschakre vayavyagam…gramyaschaye… ritual part of what came out. And
spiritual part of our own self. Before sacrifice life is different, after
sacrifice also life is same but awareness is different now. Before sacrifice we
live as I, after sacrifice we live as Love. Transformation happens after the
sacrifice. When you put everything into fire it loses its original form , and
cannot come back, like Wood becomes ash, flower becomes ash, everything becomes
ash in fire. Indestructible vibhuthi, all becomes grace. It cannot go back
after sacrifice, eveyrhing that is about you is no longer about you anymore. It
is all above it, supreme consciousness. This is the spiritual aspect of it -
the curd mixed with ghee is milk is transformed to curd and ghee after
transformation. All animal tendencies all come out, we are not getting rid of
lower level of tendencies, are offered into the sacrifice, the lower level
tendencies are gone, what comes out now. Swami asked sekarji, what is spirit,
what is ritual, what is common and unique, swami explained this way -
S P I = S, self (Atma), P, paramatma, I (supreme self).
R I T = Rigourous
Introspection and Transformation
U A L = Understanding
Awareness and Living the values
Swami asked to reverse the word - LAUTIRIPS
Outer most letter is L, innermost letter is S, this is
srichakaram, 9 different layers, every layer going inside and inside ,
connecting to the S, source of everything, S is rudram, S is Sai. Starts with
L, that L is the absolutely 5 values, 5 Ls are living, listening, learning,
loving and laughing. Living your life full of life, while we live we always
listen and learn, we love and laugh. 5Ls are the 5 values. After transformation
we become spiritually connected. Ruche samani jagjire – came out ruche ha – rig
veda, sama veda came out. Then chandhagumsi jagjire – came chandas (meter of
speaking). Yajusthasma dhajayatha – yajur veda then came out after that.
Whatever the being speaks becomes veda. It doesn’t mean whatever they speak
becomes mantra or tantra but they are speaking from a higher consciounessness
so it is same as veda. Before knowing you are deva, after knowing it becomes
veda. Vid means to know, that is the root of veda. Now the being talks from the
point of supreme consciousness , you speak from knowing this consciousness,
awareness and knwoeldge of supreme self. These realized being don’t listen and
think and sing with head but all faculties work from heart. For us it works
from head, for rishis it works from heart, its not in the context of their
limited self but from the context of higher self. Its in the context of
diversity integrated and everything becomes veda for them, first comes rug
veda, second comes sama veda, third comes chandas, finally comes yajur veda –
why this order of coming out ? RIG veda is all about rituals, how it describes
all about how to conduct yagna …Sama veda is all about rhythm and word, the
comes chandhas – the meter because its not enough to have words and ritual
practices, now you need meter which means it’s the rhythm of life, you are
dancing around you. You cant dance with the flow, you need rhythym in life,
that is chandas. Then comes yajur veda, which is supreme knowledge , entire
rudram is part of yajur veda, condensation of all the Vedanta and spirituality.
That’s when you start doing things with different awareness. What happens after
enlightenment ? dalai lama said before enlightenment its chopping the wood and
carrying the water, after enlightenment its chopping the wood and carrying the
water , same but what changed is attitude aptitude and awareness. Then you
understand life and you live. That is enlightenment. Yajusthasmadhajayatha
Milk turning to curd with culture, and ghee coming out. Then
animal tendencies
What u speak is sivane vachasa tha girishacha vadhamasi –
what u speak is positivity. Analysis and judgement are different. Rigorous
introspection that is analysis, judgement is not introspection. A spiritual
person doesn’t judge but observes like a witness, after rigorourous
introspection, my own reflection reaction resound that is something about me
which is causing this. What my experience is I apply it to the world and people
around.
Swami Vivekananda says this story – there is a bottle of
gold coins and gold bricks , little boy playing in the room. He takes the gold
and puts in his pocket and walks away. If you are the boy what will you do. He
thinks he stole the coins. Everyone in the room will think that the person
stole, we are programmed to think that way. Swami Vivekananda asks the question
– are u judgemental about that person. What are you thnking about every brother
and sister, how you are u looking at them, what color of glasses are u using.
Its because of transformation the way u look at life, the way you look at them
after transformation, you are transformed you look at them with your heart not
anymore with your head. Its completely different, you are now programmed to
think wit heart so you will be less critical of the same. You act wit the
heart. This is what Budha referred to as Samyak bhavam samyak dhristhi samyak srvanam samyak jivanam – samyak means
together in unity u listen you perceive in unity, not in isolation. When we
behave in unity everything we speak becomes related to veda in that higher consciousness.
If you stop the flow and go against then u become judgemental. When the context
of rhythm chandagumsi comes into our life then we don’t judge people, that
doesn’t mean you don’t analyze, analyze is fine, it doesn’t mean you live
without thinking, you still use your faculty, but now its awakened and you
think with your heart and not head. Previously you are asking how am I, second
guy is asking who am i. same words but after transformation how becomes who,
one goes below mind, one goes above mind. This is meaning of lower mind, higher
mind, supra mental mind is the one that is connected to the heart. Higher mind
is analytical , is only distinguishin, budhi am I listening with head or heart.
That is higher mind. When noise is going on head of the person swami wil ignore
that person because only then swami thinks why he is not talking to me, what
happened suddenly, what did I do wrong, then starts the questioning. He asks
what did I do, then he transofrms. He does rigorous introspection, tranwsformation.
Aramyan gramyaschaye. Reaction reflection resound all associated with judgement
will rollout, analytical mind will ask now. At home we are dad, husband, at
work we are boss worker, same way the same mind becomes lower and higher,
depending on whther we are listening with heart or head. That budhi higher
mind, girisaascha vidhamasi, it starts listening, everything is auspicious for
you. The heart is one and integrated, it doesn’t divide us from anthing else.
If it divides its comes from the head, if anything is uniting and accommodating
it is coming from heart. Same thing tht is judgemental is lower mind, same
thing that is analytical is higher mind budhi, whether am listening with heart
or head. When this budhi is acting its always uniting it is from the point of
spiritual transformation. If its deciding then it is mind. Everything else not
just means physical it can be metaphysical and spiritual. The trikarnas – three
karanas, most commly tools deployed – thought word and action. Manas vachas
karam mind- thought-action – unity is mahatma, division of this 3 is dhuratma.
Manas ekam, vachas ekam, karmani ekam, makes one mahatma.
But if you have a bad thought, kill someone is the thought,
go and kill, there is unity in thought word deed but this is not mahatma
because the thought is not uniting. If the thought is negative you sacrifice it
using budhi by discrimination. Integration
of mind , body , thought, integrate yourself. Conflict is illusion, everyone of
us supreme leader in the society the gretest quality of a leader, be it
corporate or spiritual or anything else, has the ability to resolve the
conflict. 99% of the time conflict is within us, not outside. First
understanding basis of the conflict, you can act in a integrated way. Even in
work, or family or society it’s the same. First goals are set at the org level
then seep it down to groups level to individual level, same is at the spiritual
level. Mahavakyas are like the company mission statement. Then it seeps down to
individual level where we see if we are performing actions at servitude,
gratitude and attitude level. Because first comes sacrifice, am I looking at
something as mind or heart. Because if
mind comes in there is an agenda in it. But when you are thinking from higher
mind the heart, then you sacrifice, and people come togehrter and work with
you, work for you. No difference between corporations and government and
spirituality. Only source not any force. From the heart comes how can I be a
part of this organization. No different in world, work,sai center or
individual, am I speaking from the point of sacrifice, sacrifice doesn’t mean
hurt urself or kill urself, u cannot hurt anyone even yourself, sacrifice in
the attitude..love all serve all help ever hurt never is the company motto, sai
centers mahavakyas.
Swami asked one boy what u play, one said tennis. Swami
asked him what referre says at the start of the game, LOVE ALL J then what does he say
SERVE J
love all, serve all, then you get the points. If you don’t love all and serving
there is no game. Only then you get points. If you point form tht point of love
all and serve all then you –someone asked swami wahts is live and love. swami
said love live love live love live 5 times he repeated. Swami said in live it
is I, I is me , in love it is O means others J
When u r live u only talk about urself, complaining, I don’t
get this I don’t get that. It dint happen for me then you are only live, you
wont prosper. In love you talk about O, which is others, what I can do for you,
what I can do for others, even in corporates it’s the same, focus is on
serving, how can I be of service to others to the company then company looks
upto you. Now starts the game. Like in tennis -> Live to Love all then
starts serving, then points are gained. A leader in company or samiti this is
how a leader is made. In the game the difference is we forget to come back to
love all serve all that is the only difference.
Tasmat yajay sarvahuthua …tasma ubhayadhataha gaoha ja…tasma
jatha ajavayaha… - literal meaning of it, from that sacrifice, came ashwa, that
is horses, also came out those with 2 sets of teeth. Eka means one set of
teethe, ubhaya means 2 sets of teeth. Why this lecture on dentistry in
purushasooktham. Context of ekaha meaning one set of teeth and ubhaya 2 sets of
teeth. Gaohajagjire tasmat gavaha means cow. Tasmat ajaha – goat came out after
that, avayaha means water buffaloes. Why all these animals are coming out finally
from sacrifice.
Noah built the arc.
2013_3_17-Purusha Suktam ->
Divine being has to be sacrificed, from this sacrifice came
different things to sustain this world. There is a spiritual connotation to all
this. What does sacrifice do to us, sacrifice means what is it to go extra mile
to love and serve the creation like the sun and moon and jesus christ. Which
son will say ok father I will sacrifice myself for mass rising of human
consciousness, no son will have that devotion to his father, to say thy will be
done. These manthras are talking about – when you decide to sacrifice your
vices in this yagna you will be transformed. Now animals are coming out of the
sacrifice from yagna.
Tasmath ashvadh ajayantha – literal meaning means horses
came out. Then came out one set of teeth and 2 sets of teeth animals eka-ubhaya
, then cows gaavaha came out then came ajaha goats. Avayaha means water
buffaloes came out.
Noah built the ark because God told him to build an ark.
Implicit obedience for the word of God, that is what Noahs story says about.
God asked me to do the boat and I shall do the boat. His family and all animals
were saved. All forest animals came onboard, in this context , from yagna came
these animals. The spiritual meaning as to why only this set of animals are
described in purusha suktham as coming out from yagna. All these animals are
the most important types of beings that live in this society, to begin with
ashwa the uncontrollable horses, running and running and running. They are
sleeping, lying down still their mind is running, human with simply running
minds. These are one set of human beings. These are controlled by thoughts.
Should I act or not, no discrimination, the people are just simply running
around that is their mind is running around. Aimlessly, that’s what horses do
that’s what these human beings do. So we put a blinder so horse gets a focus,
we have to put reigns around our mind to have focus. Ubhaya – 2 sets of teeth,
meaning there are people born only once and born twice – those who are born
twice are called dwija. Literal means animals born twice. All animals born out
of egg, are born twice. First they are born into an egg, hence first birth,
then they come out of egg breaking the shell they are second birth. So birds
are born twice. Why is teeth used in this manthra. Teeth is called dvija
because they come twice, one is milk teeth then comes the real teeth so its not
the teeth they are meaning they are talking about the birth ekha and ubhaya.
Ekaha one time born people, two time born people are the devotees. First human
birth second is they become devotees, they realize the purpose of birth first
is body born to mother and father, second birth is guru showing the purpose of
life. So ekha and ubhaya is not teeth but born once and born twice. Such
knowledge can only be given to us by Sai, no other veda book will have this
knowledge. So once born and twice born animals, birds, and also humans all come
out of this yagna. Total 32 teeth, one set of 16 lower jaw and one set 16 in
upper jaw. But when you actually look at the 32 because there are 32
beejaksharas and this 32 beeja manthras become the substratum of entire mantra
tantra yantra shastra all spiritual shastra. These complete become the 32
spiritual aspects that form the entire cosmos. Hence teeth is used in the
manthra.
Shudha vidhya anukulakara dwija paknthi – when we look at 32
teeth of mother when she smiles that 32 becomes the atma vidhya of the
individual just by looking at the mother lalitha. This is in lalitha
sahasranamam. Every single gesture of his walk and talk transforms us.
Then comes cows they are very sacred in analogy. Cows are
the rishis, the spiritual beings, it takes what is useless and converts into
useful. Unlike humans, cow takes everything completely useless like grass, and
gives milk. Not just milk, everything in a cow is useful. Even appendix of the
cow is used for yagna when cow is predated , horns are used, skin is used. Even
the urine is purification. No animal has that type of purity, Cow came directly
from yagna of greatest saints and rishis and that is the ONLY animal not
created by Brahma. Gavaha cow also means jeevatma. Gayathri means one who
protects our being.
Ajaha means goat. But spiritual meaning means ja means
birth, aja means birthless people not goat. People those who are not born and
always in existence, like swami, he was in pravesha and not prasava. Aja means
birthless. avayah is not water buffalo , means those that inform through their presence. They are present untouched by anything around them; self-realized.
So this manthra talks about the types of beings exist – eka
and ubhaya beings, then cows – sacred beings, then aja goats – birthless beings.
All these saints came from the yagna, but the son of god is sacrificed. The
next manthra yath purusham vyadhadhuhu. When did they sacrifice the son of God
what are all the forms that came out of the son of God sacrifice. Mukham
kimasya kam – his face and shoulders the thighs and feet, what came out of this
is the question being asked in this. This is important manthra – the 4 castes
are described in indian system. Brahmana, kshathriya, vaishya and shudra are
the 4 classes of society. This manthra is recited with ignorance – it is
incorrectly understand as the upper class is described as Brahmins then the
warrior class then the trader class and finally the worker class. Brahmins came
from face, warriors came from shoulders, traders came from thighs, shudras came
from feet.
2013_5_5-Purusha Suktam
If an instrument is there it has no value by itself, it has
to have current to be of some value. If current doesn’t go through a fan or
washing machine, current also doesn’t have value. Only when current has a tool
its value is felt. So we need a tool called upadhi. The body this upadhi is the
fan, washing machine, that is the tool. If current itself is not there then
there is no use of body, the current is the life force. When you die the body
is there but they say he is gone. Current expresses through these tools, body,
mind, and intellect are the 3 most important faculties given by God. Body is
simply like animal doesn’t have any utility around us until a divinity comes to
it. Professional where satya is expressed is Brahmins, those that are involved
in dharma, using the sholders that is Kshatriyas, the business people come from
thighs because of trading happens. These are the merchant aspect - MBA – mind and
body connected through Atma. BMI is body mass index, but actually it is body
mind intellect. Those who are completely in servitude in devotion are called
shudras as coming from feet. Those who work in love and peace is done by
shudhras. Those that are engrossed grounded in divine consciousness as the
aspect manifestations of brahman are called Brahmins. Not by birth but based on
what they do is based on caste system. There is a lot of criticism in india but
it’s the most profound socio and economic environment but humans have
misconstrued it. These are the external implication of manthra. It talks about
how the different professions have evolved based on human values. How all imbs
are corresponding to human values and professions.
Now from the face part of it Chandramo manaso jathaha. From
HIS mind was born the moon, from his eyes was born the sun, from his face came
Indra and Agni. That’s the literal meaning of shloka. From his life force breath
came the wind prana vayura jayatha.after resurrection of jesus all these
different things came up is physical interpretation ,the second way is the
spiritual way, son of god was sacrificed and came after that. But actually sun
and moon were always there, so the third meaning is the right spiritual
meaning. Which is - After we have lived the sacrifice everything outside is the
conscious of inside, everything is connected. We live by exploiting the outside
but we are actually exploiting ourselves our inner. If we are making money out
of something else, he is making killing inside he is losing something too, its
all connected. It is interdependent. if you know everything as you how wil you
treat it, but as urself. Chandramo manasa jathaha. Mind is nothing but a
reflection of something, it is inert by itself. What is going on aroud you is
the mind, mind is nothing but experience. Were you born with the name, no.
somebody gave you the name and hence you came to be called. You get carried and
do the work associated with it. Similarly mind is attached and associated with
it. If there is nothing there wont be a mind too. Mind is always thinking about
something outside. How to look outside, how to behave outside, what will others
think If I do this or that, what have they already thought about me, mind is
always about reflection of whats happening outside. Just like the moon which is
nothing but a reflection of sun, mind is reflection of whats happening outside.
But moon reflects the Sun the supreme light, so if your mind reflects that
supreme light then mind will reflection of divine supreme luminescence inside
you, the real divine being. This moon is more powerful the sun in a sense because
when the sun is hot in full peak u cannot enjoy it, but this moon is shining in
divine glory you can enjoy. Same way we become the luminescence of the divine
atma we become happy in doing sacrifice and serving others. The aspect of moon
is that it grows and shrinks. Only once a month we have poornima full moon. The
moon gets smaller after that and become amavasya and then grows and grows and becomes
full. Moon is not constant its not steady. Why is the moon waning and waxing.
Its because of the moment of earth, the body. It’s the earths shadow so it
appears as if its waxing or waning, same way when the body consciousness is
obstructing the fullness of light shining same thing happens to us. Its due to
attachment to the body, earth, it is the earths rotation causing the shadow on
moon,
Body came from the earth, both body and earth have same 70%,
the elements came from body. God applied the same formula, both earth and body.
Microcosm and macrocosm. body is earth, moon is mind, atma is sun. we are not
letting the atma shine jus like the earth casts its shadow. If body is not
affecting then its always pournami always it wont change. You cant experience
anything if you don’t have mind. Mind only causes the experience. The little
moon on shiva is the one thought to experience shiva. This is budhism. Full
expression of divinity of god in us is purnima. The little moon is a thin line
of moon because it has only little bit to see the star, to see the greatness of
God that is islam. These manthras are the essence of entire humanity, not just
one religion.
Why are eyes associated with sun. If we only see each other
and don’t talk to each other, if I completely turn off the light and its dark
we cannot know each other assuming we cannot talk to each other. We cannot see
unless we can feel touch we cannot know the presense, it is the light that
makes us see. Jyothisham pathaye namaha in aditya hrdyama. Eye is jus
instrument, the light makes us see. Eyes are important but its upadhi, the
light is the current. This light chaksho suryo ajayatha. This light is the
light tht helps you not only see outside but also see inside. See Always Inside SAI. Mukha
indras cha agni scha From the face came indra and agni. All report to Indra he
is the head of the department. Indra means the energy to do action, the divine
effulgence mind, the ability to see inside and outside. Equanimity of vision
that is the actual vision of outside, rest of the visions have to be corrected.
Effulgence comes from face, you look at the face and say that person looks
radiant, this radiance comes from the face, this radiance is agni. When it
doesn’t sign it is castor oil face. Even action comes through face, by looking
at the face of a mother u wil know if u r doing it right or wrong, swami will
convey many things just expressions of eyes and face. His breath became wind,
the existence to everyone else. Pranath vayurajayatha. If we put a hole in balloon
all the air goes out, but our body bubble has 9 holes, but air is inside.
Bubble can burst any time as swami says.
Nabhi is navel from navel came antariksha that is space.
From head came dhau that is upper world or higher world. From the feet came the
earth. From ears came the directions. This is how all the worlds came into
existence. From the god himself all the world has come. From the divine
consciousness all these things came into existence. After resurrection after
Christ consciousness how are these related to different aspects of the world.
To know that the center of entire universe is center of the body is the navel.
the body’s center is actually navel from there came brahma. In hindu mythology
from vishnu’s navel came brahma. From center of divine consciousness came the
creator. Space is needed for creation, antha ha means inside, iksham means
opportunity for storing that is anthariksham called space. But we consider our
chest as center and show our chest because that is the center of the universe.
Because atma resides there. Swami answers that the chest is the center because
5 elements have 5 different plexes, the bottom of the body is earth
element. Next center is the fire, then
water, then wind , then anthariksham.
Where u sit the body touches ground is body earth element,
then around stomach is fire area, then above stomach but below heart is water
elemnt. heart area comes wind element, then above wind in the throat is
antriksham. Wind - you cant smell taste or see you can only feel and hear. That
is wind principle. From heart you can feel and hear hence you have to connect
to HIM to hear him and feel him you cannot see him
2013_6_2-Purusha Suktam 1-3
Everytime we start worship we do achamanam: Keshava,
Narayana, Madhava
Why these 3 names why not some other names – ther is a
spirita significance. KA comes from throat, NA comes from heart, MA comes from
stomach. Keshava narayana madhava sound travels from mouth to stomach. Then we
start saying mantras because the path is now clear. There is a vibration within
you when you say a particular name. its like taking a medicine u have to follow
certain protocol, same way you have to follow the protocol, hence you have to
establish everything by meditating, meditation is the medication of the mind.
Meditation needs certain protocol. You can do it anytime and anywhere but for
efficacy we have to follow it with certain procedures. Coming back to the
sholka…
We think we know a lot but we know only very little, the
stuff we know is 0.000001 even less than
that. We only know khana, peena, sona, all know eating, drinkning, sleeping.
Then you know how to ride a car, play a flute, play basketball etc.things tht
you know you don’t know is even bigger. Imagine about the things you don’t know
that you don’t know, this is the largest pile in this world. This manthra is
saying what is it that you really have to know. Vedahaetam prusham …sarvani
roopani vichithy…abhivadhan yadasthe. What this vedaham etham purusham
mahantham. After sacrifice (our own sacrificing to begin with, all the
qualities in the fire) Hinduism and zoraostrinism, both talk about fire. We
have to invoke fire most important in rituals, this is because you can pollute
earth water air space but no one can pollute fire, so fire becomes the
messenger to God. When we invoke the fire we sacrifice all our vices to emerge
great grand and glory. What is it we emerge to now? That is this manthra about
– emerge great grand and holy – swami summarized zorastran pirnciple. Same
things mentioned in Christiniaty also – incredible light emerged and only
closest disciples were able to see the light. In tomb body of jesus disappeared
and light was there everywhere - This aditya varnam – incredible effulgence of
light, beyond tamasthu pare, beyond darkness this light emerges. Vid is to
know. Vedaham etham (I have known) that everything is about effulgence purusham
mahantham everything is about this light, is of many millions of suns. What are
you able to see in this light ? until then in the darkness you are not able to see
anyone, not ven ourselves. This is darkness. When suddenly light is turned on
then we see everything clearly. All these things aroud me have different names
and forms now am able to recognize, that the person behind this light is only
one. The essence of advaita of ever faith and religion, the bottom line is , I
see this light and in this light I see everything, different forms and
different names, the light in each one of us is this light encompassing
everything. We are able to invoke this great grand holy light, in the light,
and it is the same light within me. This light has enabled to see within me and
everywhere around me. Purusham means the one responsible for namani
krtva…vichithya dheeryaha
Sarvani roopani – all with forms are created in this light.
Aditya varnam- beyond the darkness. No light is darkness.vichithya dheeraha not
only they are forms they have different names, abhivadhan yadhasthe – all is
created by the light in the light, the light within me and around me, all
created by this light. The darkness is different than me, once you see
diversity only you see only darkness. Beyond this darkness we see light, which
is beyond diversity that is unity. Vid to know, ya means that. Vidya means to
know that. What is to be known is what this manthra is saying. To know it by
which you shall know the knowing, that is veda. This manthra came into
existence millions of years ago. Shankarcharya went back and forth india,
through many forests and mountains. Amma Karunamayi says saints take up a huge
body very very tall body so they cross easily. In 32 years of age
shankaracharya has written so many, walked so many, crossed manythings, because
they are connected with this vidya. This is the sixteenth 16th
shloka in this suktham. Shodashobacharam – is 16th is lighting
camphor, the final step in 16 forms of worship, 16th worship is
lighting the camphor and this shloka vedahametham purusham mahantham is talking
about light. Once I lit the fire they are all the same light. The real worship
is to invoke the light within us, is lighting the camphor , camphor goes from
SOLID straight to GAS, others mostly go through liquid state. This is an
indication go straight from human and merge in the divine.camphor doesn’t
lewave any residue is another reason. God is nothing but light, the form we
give is ignorance. We want to worship god as a form only because he has taken
that form to answer our prayers, but if we stuck in the form that is avidya, so
go beyond the form. In this Christianity context with purusha suktham To think
jesus is the body is wrong. I AM is the Christ. During budha purnima Seka ji
was there in asia and prayed to swami asking what to talk the next day. Swami
comes in dream says 4 words budhu budda budhi budha.
Budhu = ignorant one becomes budda – old and die. But Some
people want to use their intellect and use their budhi, and then progresses to
become budha. Swami says – I is individual discrimination – uses it for his own
living, A is fundamental level of discrimination, this is not the body this not
the mind, the indweller the light aum mani padme hum, is what budha realized,
light is what jesus and zorasthurtra showed.
-- follow that light in ur heart and reach the promised
land, so says baba Sathya sai baba Sathya saibaba my lord. enlightenment
This is the that light vedahametham…aditya varnam..namani
kruthva abhivadan edhasthe
2013_6_30-Purusha Suktam
Vedahametham purusham mahantham..Aditya varnam tamasthu
pare…sarvani roopani ..namani krutva abhivadan yedhasthe –meaning is Now I
witness the light that is beyond the darkness that light tht is pervading all
names and forms. the first level of darkness is u r the body and u r the mind.
Once u see the light within, then no
more death no more birth, no more sorrow no more misery. First get beyond the
body-mind- consciousness. Once you go beyond this then the light u see in you
is the same light within everyone. Sarvani roopani, namani kruthva abhivadham
yadhasthe – what is the proof of these manthras , human mind will ask proof ,
questions. What is the proof, the next manthra explains the ones who have seen
this abstract thing. Now we can follow and perceive the same way. God comes in
various divine souls walking the path humans are walking, showing its not some abstract
philosophy. Dhaatha purasthaadh yamudha .. first one to walk is brahma, the
second one to walk this path is indra. We don’t know who these are, so next
comes we can relate to. Dhaatha (creator – brahma) purasthaadh (first one) udha
jaharaath (the one who actually assimilated this essense of what this light is)
then he spoke about it. After he experienced it he talked about it. To
understand this manthra u need to know a purana. When u say e=mc square its
abstract, then when physics teacher explains everything now it makes sense to
you. Veda manthras are like that, at superficial level it will confuse you, it
is meant to be that way.
For ex: jesus says I am the way through which you can go
through God. First we understand that Jesus is the way, without jesus we cannot
reach the way. We need asami (priest or human) to reach swami(God). So the
first external world meaning is we need jesus or prophet or budha, people take the stance and
literally take this meaning as only jesus is the way, prophet is the way, or
budha is the way. But in reality they are saying the advaitic way, I AM is the
way to go, not the I am body. Ayamathma I AM ATMA is the way to go. I AM is the
being. If you know who you are, I am I, when u interpret it the advaitic way.
With this way if you read all religions books you will understand they are all
talking about the same essense. The foundation of all these religions is
sanathana dharma, if you know the exact meaning of all religons they are all
same as sanathana dharma. Connect to this stuff that is unchanging rest all wil
follow. What happened in mahabhratha is same as Jihad. Kill anyone who is not a
believer of God, it doesn’t mean kill all humans it means kill the ego. Swami
gives a lecture, people will interpret with their own mid and experiences. So
connect directly with god. Messiahs are only showing the path, they are guide
posts. If u become a fanatic and lose the connection with god then you miss the
point. The characters as messiahs are guides and guide posts, they are very
very important but the point is realizing the actual light which encompasses
everything and everyone.
Swami says Religion means re-legere means to reconnect. If u
r trying to climb to the summit there are many ways u can reach there,
everybody things theirs is the right path tht is wrong. The moment they reach
they summit that time u realize that all paths lead to the same summit,
including my path. So study all faiths and scriptures, multi faith approach.
Dhaatha purasthaadh yamudha jahara – brahma, understood and
gave it to the whole world.
Shakrapravidhvan – shkraha means indra
Pradhisas chathrasraha – chathasra means 4 directions,
pradhisha means all directions. – indra experienced this in all directions and
he is able to realize and see the omnipoten omnipresent and omniscient God.
Shakra is indra, realized his own divinity. Thamevam vidva namrutha bhavathi –
thamevam he realized – who relized this principle, let me confirm you and gave
to everybody and say only by this way, when they listen to this manthra they
wil become enlightened not through any other way. Here it doesn’t mean Hinduism
or only this manthra noyaph pantha – there is no another path. Same thing bible
also says, same thing quran says. So true fanatics will always stick to
religion only but miss the point.
Brahma has 4 heads, hes the creator, but no one worships
brahma, there are many Vishnu and shiva temples but no brahma temples.
Now for inner meaning – indra stands for energy of actions.
Indra literally means action. Dhaatha means creator. Creaiton comes from love.
So dhaatha and chathashra means love and serve J
All directions means All. à
love all and serve. all you will become enlightened if u love all and serve all.
Love is creation, serve is the action. There is no guru or avatar who has
distilled all of vedas in such simple actionable things. Swamis discourses if u
listen u don’t need to know veda or anything.
Amrutha iha bhavathi – u will become immortal through this. U don’t need to learn anything else. What is
the path – love all serve all. That’s what greatest sages did, they don’t want
to come out of consicuosness they merged and remained with supreme
consciousness always.
Next manthra is full of actions – yagjyena yagja mayajantha
devaha . all gods demi gods or diving beings, all of them are not ordinary
people, they realized through this yajnga, this ultimate one. What is yagjna ,
not a normal fire ritual or sacrifice , it’s the above offering mentioned in purusha
suktham. Only if you put fire and throw sticks and ghee u will become god, that
is wat the literal meaning of it. It is through yagna that gods realized the
ultimate one. Those yagnas has become the very first dharma now , to purify.
Thaani dharmani prathama sann, first dharma given to human kind. Thani means
those, pratham means first. First aspect of dharma hence is to perform this
yagna.
Theha naham mahimana sachanthe -Whenever the greatest ones,
sages and seers wherever they are doing this yanga to reach the ultimate one,
only those who follow this path will reach the ultimate promised land. Wherever
this is practiced and only those people will reach heaven – again here it is
not talking only about hindus doing home. The homa is actual sacrifice is.
First thing to sacrifice is your bad qualities. Emerge great grand and holy.
Offer the bitterness, in the sacrificial fire, that is yagna. That is the right
home.
Always complaining about neighbors, about inlaws, about
everything around us, we don’t want to sacrifice our bitterness, why is this
person so bad why is that person like that. Complaining complaining
complaining. Zorathstru said sacrifice bitterness first. When you accommodate
and don’t judge you are making the first sacrifice. When you are making tht
accommodation now ur heart needs more space, that means your heart becomes big,
that means you will become big hearted when you adjust and accommodate. This is
the first sacrifice. If you give in order to incorporate this you forgive that
person to that incident that affected you, you clear it up in your heart. That
forgive – for-giving – u create more space in ur consciousness now. U are now
releasing something that u are holding on, give up this nonsense in this
sacrificial fire. But if u hold on to it u r not releasing space for holding on
something more specious. So you have to sacrifice for your own self. Forgiving
is not for others, its for your own self. This is the sadhana we have to do.
Everything that is coming in our way to connect with the within self has to
come in with purity. From every single instant whatever impression is being
formed in our mind, we have to erase it. The divine consciousness is complete
and full, your individual consiousness is the exact image of this supreme full consciousness.
Both image is full and reflection is full.
Reaction reflection resound – u hav to contemplate – u r
full u r god but if ur understanding is not complete and full you will perceive
the world as the same. If your circle is dented then to iron it out you have to
do this sacrifice, and do sadhana. Swami never said ashram, he said its
saibabas workshop. He works up at various levels to fix the dent and make u
perfect circle again in his reflection. Swami put ur through the heat, then he
will put the mold. You need the heat to get molded. Let him work on you.
So first yagna is let go of your bitterness and forgivness.
Not artificial saying I forgive you, its within your heart you let go and not
get affected.
Amma karunamayi sitting in forests , meditating with tigers
around her how tht is possible. Swami said when animal comes near u , it senses
only love. It sees a reflection of u, if u fear then animal fears. If u love
then animal also sees only the love.
Himsa – simha –hamsa – soham. Offer or giving up the
bitterness. Its not ordinary thing to sacrifice all vices. The 3 animals
sacrificed in sacrificial fire – goat, horse, bull
Quality of goat – stubbornness. They start fighting each
other until they get severely hurt. If 2 guys start arguiging they go on and
on, they cant even know when to stop. Sacrifice ur goat attitude.
Horse is wavering mind. Bull is the ego/pride. Through this
sacrifice u get immortal. The body sacrifice is only symbolic.
2013_8_3-Purusha suktam 1-2
Adhbhavya samboocha… thasya thvashta vidhadha .. thamagre –
this means the creation after the creation. We first spoke about creation in
first anuvaka. Expansion of divine consciousness, after the sacrifice. What is
this creation after creation ? everyone has 2 different levels of birth, the
second birth is different from first birth. The first birth is to come out of
mothers womb to get this body. Second birth is to expand the consciousness from
encompass everyone, to love and serve all. It is only through sacrifice you can
realize the divine consciousness. Yagne yagna mayajantha devaha – this
sacrifice is the supreme thing, thaani dharmani prathama sann – sacrifice is
the first step one has to learn.
It is thru sacrifice as the supreme dharma the greatest ones
have realized their beauty, grandeur of light called God. The first dharma is
sacrifice. What is dharma – first thing is karma, second is dharma. Karma is
action, dharma is intention with which you do karma or action is dharma. This
intention should be nothing but love. Dharma is translated as duty or right
conduct. But the true meaning of intention or attitude with which karma is done
is dharma. So karma and dharma should be service and love. Intent is the
fundamental ground with which you express. Character and integrity, your intent
has to be in tune with thought word and deed. Am I doing what I am thinking and
saying – this is purity. The dharma is purity of intent, that is , is the
intent based on agenda or sacrifice. Agenda is for your ego or whatever u want.
Sacrifice should be the intent. If the intent is correct then be it at work, or
family or society, is it good for the bigger world outside. This is true even
to corporations, the intent of an individual gets expressed from individual to
project to organization to product to customer. A true leader is one whos
intent is based on self sacrifice, a mahatma is one who is always thinking of
entire mankind or human race. There is no agenda for his benefit for mahatmas,
intent is always about sacrifice. When intent becomes I , rewards, recognition,
earning etc then its not sacrifice. Thaani dharmani prahtmasann – that is first
sacrifice intent is the first dharma one has to learn.
Study circle is extremely important because only through
that we understand swamis teachings, many things will become clear to us and
expansion happens.
Theha nakam mahimana sajanthe - People will sign up to do
project for you. The intent has to be sacrifice , for the leader. Things will
line up for you automatically when you rise as a leader and your intent is
sacrifice.
Fr ex when you eat to take care of ur body, that intent is not sacrifice, that is an
agenda,. But we cannot live without eating. That is when we say brahmarpanam
because the intent of the food is the nourish the divine consciousness within.
By acknowledging that it is the divine that consumes the divine that digests
and nourishes we convert that intent of eating or consumption also as a
sacrifice. So if every act of ours is filled with this sacrifice intent, then
everything we do becomes divine work.
This is what seers and sages perceived, their agenda is
about sacrifice, nothing else. You being to see a beautiful expansion from the
self to out world, as swami says expansion is my life. This is what explained
In next Abhya sambootha prthvi rasaacha, vishwakarmana samavarthadhadhi
Prthvi is earth. Rasa is essence/..essence of mother earth
is coming from abdhya ha. Abdhya means water literally. But the essence of
earth its core is water that is symbolic of wetness, entire core came from one
substance which is Love that is the spirituality taught in the manthra. The
core of your body came from abdhayaha Love. From this started the expansion.
First you understand who you are, you are love at the core. From there you
expand. Tasya ..vidhadhadh dhroopa methi – from this love the essence of earth
is born, then all pervading universe, then divine consciousness appeared. That
purushasya that divine matter, earth - body, universe –kinteic energy from this
came the being into existence. Your core is love. The scripture is telling the
same as what swami is telling. Your core is love, from this love there is
nothing else. Core is love and from here emerged creation and divine
consciousness. Manifest is kinetic energy, unmanifest is potential energy. Your
being came into existence. From your being you are expanding into universal
consciousness. Vedhahametham purusham mahantham, from your body came the being
and there is expansion to divine consciuness. My being is nothing but the
Divine consciousness. From here came the relative reality, that is the
universe. Your purusha is nothing but divine consciousness. Like you putting 4
walls and making a room, space is infinity its always there, we put a wall and
call it individual, the entire thing is space only. When the wall is removed
only space exists, you lose individuality. Codes of conduct associated with
different aspects of manifestation is the dharma. I am not separate from divine
consciousness but the same, the very many things are nothing but
differentiation of the same divine consciousness. You have to expand this
consciousness within us. No divine person can sit in a corner and do sadhana,
consciousness cannot be kept inside you, then it is not divine. Swami first
says my life is my message, then he says expansion is my life. Before that he
says love is my form – abdhya sambootha … then he says truth is my breath,
bliss is my food. This is same as purusha suktham. Sat chit ananda – love is my
form – truth is my breath – bliss is my food, this is satchidanda. Ananda is
the supreme ananda, when others are happy I am happy. This is why Swami always
asks are you happy? Because only if we are happy he is happy. That is bliss is
my food, he lives on this. Only through knowing swami you can learnt the entire
vedas, to know “love is my form truth is …. expansion is my life” this is what
we need to know. Tamasas parasthaaath, this aditya varnam is faaar from
darkness, beyond unreachable darkness. This darkenss is nothing but birth and
death. No reason for love, no season for love, no birth no death. By knowing
that you become amrutha iha bhavathi. When you know you are beyond birth and
death you are immortal being.
Nanyaph pantha vidhyathe yanaya – now we got the path.
Aligned with birth and death we suffer. There is nothing called suffering, we
are not seeing ourselves as complete. If you put a dent in I, it becomes
identity. I-dent- this dent of I am the body, second dent is I am the mind,
other dents are relations. When we are not complete we suffer. When are
complete we suffer. Nanyaf pantha vidyathe ayanaya, u don’t need to know
anything more, this is it. What is the path – love is my form, truth is my
breath, bliss is my food, my life is my message expansion is my life, no reason
for love no season for love, no birth no death that is purusha suktham.
Prajapathis charathi garbhe anthaha – antha means end or
dwelling. Prajapathi means lord or king of all beings, praja means beings,
pathi means husband or owner. Prajapathis is hanging around deep within you garbhe, wandering within all beings.
Ajaya mano bahudha vijayathe. – the one takes many births.
The one who has no birth no death but he takes many births, how is it that
possible ? he dint take birth in anyone but he encapsulated, by adding walls to
the space did space take birth or just by constriction god takes a form. There
was no birth because space is already there, will be there. Ghatakasha ghata
means pot, matakhasha mata means place , there is no little space, big space,
my space, your space. Space is space. Similarly ajaya mano bahudha vijayathe,
mahadhbya realized souls, schullakebhayaha is fools, the space inside them is
the same. Same as ekam sath vipra bahudha vadhanthi, the divine consciounesness
is one , the seers call him in many names. The previous secret statement (called
yoni) is this divine consciousness is the being, he has not birth and death. Inside
of everyone is only one and that one is divine consciousness. So far in the
entire conversation there is nothing related to Hinduism. The essence of
creation, universe everything came from this supreme knowledge, it is eternal, non-changing.
It is nothing to do with one particular religion. All jesus, muhammed, moses,
budha said the same things. All these are different ways to the summit. Only
when you reach the top you will know that all paths are beautiful, when you are
on the path focus on only one path. If you put the bible on the altar, Ramayana
on the altar then you are not practicing what is written, you will have to walk
the path to reach summit. Mareecheenam the great rishi has emulated this. Why
mention of a particular sage.
2013_8_18-Purusha Suktam1-3
Prajapathi is in the inner core garbha of being. Ajayamano
the one who has no birth, bahudha vijayathe takes birth in many beings.tasya
dheera – this is how great ones understand the secret. Those such as mareecha
et all saints have reached this supreme abode of realization.
In ramakatha rasa vahini swami mentions mareechi. Sage
vashishta is asked to speak about rama to janaka, about describing about rama.
Mareechi, son is kashyapa, son is vamana. Padhamichanthi the previous shloka
means how tht supreme soul is present in everything. Padhamichanthi veddhasaha
– they want to achieve that same stage, veda means knowledge, veddha means
pious and faithful. Its not vedasaha, its veddhasaha. All sukthams a great
maharishi is mentioned. Atharva shirsham maharishi atharva is mentioned, sri
suktham sage kardhama is mentioned, durga sukhtam athri maharishi is mentioned.
In this particular context veddhasaha means those that has realized they are
brahman. Attaining the post of brahma is different, attaining brahman is
different. Even those attaining the post of brahma want to achieve what mareechi
has achieved. Those who have achieved doesn’t even want any position. Swami is
not about putaparthi or organization etc, swami is not about inherit the
ashram, establishing organization is not swamis mission, these are by products.
He is the supreme self, his primary mission is to awaken the innate latent
divinity in man. Everything established is a means only, but everyone has to be
empowered to realize this brahman. What is the secret is given in this above manthra
– The creator who created has come deep within ourself. The one who has no
death has come into all of us as many. He entered into the entire universe and therefore
he has taken birth in many.
Jananthi is to know. Parijananthi means to lie and know.
People like maricheeni et all understood the secret by living through that. Not
by just knowing it. Therefore the brahma himself wanted to attain this state of
mareechi through practice.
2013_8_18-Purusha Suktam2-3
Among all maruthas I am mareechi, among adityas I am Vishnu
– srikrishna himself says this in Gita. Mareechi literally means effulgence. Tamevam
vidhva namruta iha bhavathi. There is a mythological aspect but behind them
there is a spiritual meaning. Mythology is to connect initially and from there
we can comprehend the spiritual meaning. Annamaya says – what is big what is
small , from atom of atoms to magnanimous or magnanimous the divinity is
equally present in everything. All the gradation exists only because its
covered and potency is not fully expressed. The spiritual aspirants have
dis-covered that is discovered the self and the light and they are one and the
same. So the realized people have discovered, they have dis (remove) the cover.
We have not discovered cause we have not removed the cover, the body and mind.
All the identity we have to i-dent-ity we put a dent to our I and remain
attached to our I. remove the dent then only I remains. Yo devebhyo ,,..yo
devanam.. poorvo devebhyo…namo ruchaya brahmayae. If you want to know the truth
about light. Rucham is light god is nothing but light. Yo devebhyaha atapathihi
means that brahman or the effulgence is nothing but light of Gods. What is
gayathri – you want to put a form, put lotus and decoration around her so mind
can perceive but gayathri is actually light. Tat savithur varenyam that
resplendent effulgence, bhargo devasya dheemahi , the life sustaining force
gross subtle and causal, dheeyo yonaph prachodhayath may that light my
intellect. Without the ritual mind cannot engage in action, mind needs to be
focused on a form. Otherwise god is light. Yo vedanam one who is inspiring gods to do work. How did
people know this before. Namo ruchaya brahmaye, brahman Is nothing but light, to
this light I salute. Farmer has to come and take out the weeds else no one can
distinguish between good plant and weed, that farmer is avatar. We have come to
this earth to be born based on our karma. God doesn’t have karma he has only
dharma, he is not born, the light condenses and appears as an avatar. That
light which is the basis of all gods, devanam purohithaha, purihitha is not
priest, the one whose life is a message for others is purohitha.
In gita Krishna sai Dharma samsthapanaya – dharma is hidden,
samsthapanam means removing the cover or mud around it. Dharma is always there,
he did not invent or establish, he only reestablished.
If u have realized that God is light then u r enlightened
one, then all gods come to serve you. Deva agre thadhabruvan – first
All gods demi gods , different energies, indra, vishu ,
shiva, brahma, navagrahas, yama, these are all gods and demigods they
established that supreme one is light and we are under the command of this
enlightened light and we will serve you. That’s why even brahma wants to be
mareechi. When divine one knows the truth about oneself, who am I, everything
is under their control. You are enamoured by all the miracles and magic how is
sai baba doing this doing that, creating lingam, creating water, and fire. Know
that once u r realized everything is under your control. That truth is
described in purusha suktham. God is light, and for the enlightened one, all
the divine forces are under his control. Golden age dawning means man people
are realizing god within the seed is fired their karma doesn’t manifest and
they are not reborn. Once you know yourself there is no rebirth.
For those people that are enlightened. Tasya deva – even for
them god serves them. When you are enlightened everything comes to you,
everything is within, everything is light and he has realized he is the same
light. Hri and Sri become their consorts. Hri means creation, Sri means giving
auspiciousness. Hri is boo devi, sri is Lakshmi, for the lord bhoo devi and sri
devi are consorts. The symbolic meaning is for the enlightened one the creation
and auspiciousness are consorts. Consort or pathni means one who is ready to
serve, Not to question the authority. The one who bears all the problems and
takes care is bartha pathi husband.
Creation is abundance and auspicious when you invoke that
enlightened one.
All gods demi gods have a role they stil have their dharma.
Rahu ketu are all clerks. The clerk tells u the process, once u have learnt the
process you have to do it and application goes to higher authority who is
Shiva. If you have direct friends with Shiva then the higher authority will
tell the navagrahas I wil vouch for him you do for his. So cut all small
processes and have direct divine access with anugraha of bhagawan the agraha of
graha will not matter. Even for the un-enlightened means they don’t know the
access, they have not realized it. When u have realized it the access
automatically comes. All this potency is present in each and everyone equally ,
all can get enlightenment.
Then why do I get indulged in all these different things ,
because we have forgot the password. User name is love all, password is serve
all. Once u login, hri creation and sri auspiciousness are all there to serve
you. Love is sridevi, Serve is bhoo devi. J
Ahorathre parshve – parshve means day and night are right by the side which
means there is no time sense for you. You are infinite, time becomes your
control. Nakshtrani roopam, the inifinite light becomes your form, unimaginable
beyond the stars and spaces we are becoming. Then time is another constraint,
nakshatrani roopam means no space barrier, no time barrier, no resource barrier,
ashvino vyatham – asupicousness comes. You open mouth it will heal somebody,
you don’t have to do anthing, just speak to them, just look at them. The
englihtened ones operate with abudance without any limitation, without
limitation of time or space of anything. Just they say it becomes truth. When
swami says it happens, he doesn’t speak truth, whatever he speaks become the
truth. Ashwino vyathamm. Whatever he
says. Sundar was bitten by snake, he was cured after months and when he went to
do pranams to swami , swami looks at his foot and asks what is that. Sundar
says its cobra bite, swami says no its just a thorn. Sundar thinks why is swami
saying it’s a thorn because I know I lived through the pain it’s a cobra. Swami
says to save u I saved it’s a thorn if I said it’s a cobra u would have died.
What can they grant us -> Ishtam manishana all that we desire, amum
manishana – beyond what you desire, sarvam manishana – everything that is
required.
The meaning of sukthams are bestowed only to those who
deserve it, with bhagawans grace. Divine knowledge of supreme self is within
us. Ukthi means to say, sukthi means to say beautifully and profoundly that’s
why these are called sukthams.
