[Advaita-l] SADHANA - The different Paths

[KAMESWARARAO MULA]

PRAYER - The Nature's Procedure:Dear Friends,                       The Natural Prayer has three statements of fact:
 
1.   “ O Master –the real goal of human life:

Here we are merely stating a fact that we are yetslaves of our wishes putting bar to our advancement. We are not asking god toremove the wishes  or anything like that,we are again making a statement of fact with an attitude of humility that weare recognizing our selves we are the problem creators our selves.


 
We humbly states that our wishes are putting bar toour advancement. I feel that if the prayer was effectively used prayer willprevent us from developing wishes for the future.


 
It is the art of the god only and it is his power tobring us up to that stage. Prayer is just a beginning of new life and the functionof the ultimate was finished with the first Kshobh. There was an impulsecontinued the creation which goes on for ever ever. To govern that universe, tokeep control over that, to maintain it and to change it, is not any more hisfunction.

The MASTER has come to help us change because changeis not automatic as it requires push & external power should occurnaturally without resistance from ourselves.

The greatest benefit of the meditation in the morningis that it trains us to regulated our mind, instead of being the slaves of ourmind, we have to become the masters of our mind. For this we need to doregulation for constant focusing, may be you requires some sort of training oryogic practices or asana dharana niyamas.


 
E.g.,If ou have a Dog and you want to train it, you use the dog itself to train it.Simlilarly to master a horse, you have to ride it again & again and againuntil you have mastered the horse. so there can be no training programme in that sense. Any method to be used/adopted to train & regulated our selves.
The mission of the prayer could be: O " Master, you are the real goal of my life, what is standing in between us are my foolish wishes and desires for your powers, your beauty and your wealth.  Although you also can give your self to me, since you already given your energy to me and I feel that you & your energy are same only. Then how can there could be a difference exists? It the people surrounded by us who are creating disturbances in our thoughts, daily activities and interfering for the wested benefits.

 Dear Shakta Bandhu's,                                      In Continuation of my earlier e-mail regarding Brahman or Conciousness
Sh. Rama Krishna explains that it is Real and everything else which is its manifestation in different form is equally real. 'Arup' or nothing enters the words of form takes on tangible manifestation.He continues to teach us the fact that 'What dives us away from this pursuance? It is Greed and leads to grabbing.It is the grace of the Master that by serving to the lotus feet, he bestowed the mantra to his disciple swami vivekananda for realisation of his disciple with out expectation any thing in the return.
The great indian Master was nothing but the Thakur/ Yadava Kula bhushan Lord Krishna, veera who can transmits the Kundalini shakti to the needy disciple effortlessly.  For his grace & vision to enhance the conciousness of the disciple's subtle mind, what the disciple can give in return is that  his physical body and except that the disciple doesn't possess anything with him. It is the Guru Dakshina to the lotus feet.
This is the bondage of the guru-sishya of the karma bhumi which can only happen on this Land into which non can enter in between with the breath remains. It is the bondage of soul's meeting in space at certain point of time.
Finally my conclusion is that                                               " If some one gets cheated in life, you are rather lucky because your suffering takes you to the depth towards reaching brahman where as the cheat remains superficial for ever. From the losses you have created the eternal treasures for yourself  where as  The cheater have already greased the wheels of his downfall.

 Dear Shakta Bhandhu's,                                        It is said that there are two paths to Sadhana. The path of Discrimination & the path of Devotion.  The first one is Discriminationi i.e Rational, it thinks & reject the things that are impermanent, net, neti, net (Not this) i.e I am not my money, I am not my body, I am not my mind....until by process of elimination, the aspirant/disciple comes to a permanent & therefore the reality exists. The path of Knowledge has a concept of the ultimate Ideal from the beginning and goes forward consciously towards it.                  The Devotion on the other hand travels forwards with FAITH, Ignorant of where he will ultimately arrive. HE ACCEPTS ALL: " YOU ARE THIS and That & also THIS. There by reminding himself that Brahman exits in all things. He does not worship the thing, but reality within the thing.
This is the Route adopted by the great master 'RAMAKRISHNA PARAMAHAMSA'
A literal man needing to experience everything himself, he was finding his own way, blundering through the dense undergrowth of his mind, the high altitude of his soul with unflinching faith & intense yearning he prayed to the mother of the universe for the self - realisation, surrounding himself totally to her wishes. He declares finally that " As many faiths with so many Paths".
Quite often, Ramakrishna was in his state of utter desperation , Cried out to the Mother & said:Yet another day passed in the TIME, Mother: what is life worth if I cannot see you??I have suffered so long. Are you just a chunk of Stone? Some times I doubt you exists.Am I a fool to believe there exists a Consciousness of which this stone is only a representation?Mother you shown yourself to other devotees. Why won't you show yourself to me? or IS THERE ANY DIVINE CONCIOUSNESS EXSISTS ALWAYS WITH IN ME???
Why the mother won't grant our prayers? I have been praying to you mother for quite some time.I can't go or leave this physical body without a glimpse of you Mother, I would rather die.
Finally , ' A life history of Ramakrishna Says' that The mother wallks to Ramakrishna in ecasty and said that my child, I am please with you, you are my Kid, let me know your wish as I am please to grant the Boons. I believe that there is nothing harm to the Land with your presence so you are my son only, come on, Let us Pray together for the welfare of Mankind.
Hevalambi Nama Samvastara, Dakshinayana,Pushya suddha Trayodashi (Bhanu vasara)WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR - 2018  as we say good bye to 2017 just now.
