BDHA 2ND ARROW

 




KAISER-When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt."

"Paradoxically, the more we're willing to be uncomfortable, the more ease we'll find."

One does not awaken to what isn’t - one awakens to what is.

One does not awaken to there being no body and no thing - one awakens to the fundamental nature of all bodies, all things.

When scientists discovered atoms, when they discovered quarks, all the forms, bodies, objects that are built from particles did not vanish. They continued to exist, and their true nature was known.

That consciousness is the only true reality does not mean that there is consciousness, and some other reality that is false. It means that consciousness is the only reality, the only reality that exists. It means that consciousness is the fundamental nature of all reality. Consciousness expresses itself as reality. All forms, all objects, all organisms are consciousness expressing itself and, as such, are just as real as consciousness experienced as itself, formless and boundless, is.

The human organism, the human animal, the human mind - that’s consciousness. Human mind, it’s perceptions, it’s functions, is consciousness as much as anything else.

Human need to grow, to develop, to help, to teach - all of that is consciousness. Human need to get away from pain, to achieve happiness, to divide life into good and bad, right and wrong, and then try and get all the right and good, and make all the bad and wrong go away - that’s all consciousness. That is all reality.

There is nothing else it could be. In reality that is consciousness, there is nothing other than consciousness.

Everything in creation including infinite space is thought to consist of three types of substance: normal matter, 'dark matter' and 'dark energy'. Normal matter consists of the atoms that make up stars, planets, human beings and every other visible object in the Universe. Conciousness covers all three & more which science is still finding out about….

Duality, like good or bad, is the nature of a mental perception. This is how the human mind, naturally, perceives reality

If you are using shabar mantras for anything, you are taking help from cosmic energies. This way you are in debt to them. Shabar mantras are weak and have a specific time duration and a weak range. Hence the debt is not that big. The energy will take a portion of your accumulated punya. Please understand there is nothing like doing good or bad with the help of cosmic energies. No matter what is your purpose, if you take help, you are bound to pay it back. I hope it answers your question.

Certainly yes, during meditation spine should be straight up. Otherwise it will not give positive results.

But, if you sit in dhanya mudra or yog mudra posture on some woolen blanket or shawl or thick cloth in a seperate airy lighted room of your home daily particularly morning evening hours for half an hour or more. In this mudra posture your spine will automatically be in straight position. You have not to do any thing more . Only you have to do meditation.

During meditation you can chant any sacred mantra or japa or recite Gods name in closed eyes looking to some photo of God or Goddess or Shiv Linga some four or five feet away from your eyes or looking to the centre of forehead in closed eyes.

Jai Guru Dev.

The word Bhole as usual signifies innocence.

Bhandari refers to “the reservoir “

Thus One who is the “accumulation of Innocence”..

Similar words include

Asutosh,

BholaNanda,

Bhole Baba….etc.

It signifies the Highest Atman is without pretense and is appeased in Himself as “ShiVam”.

The One who is tricked easily even knowing of it …but no one likes to deceive Him, just like the innocent child. … who is adorable in every way…

a

It states that Our Divine Nature is innocence…. And we do not like to get entrapped in illusion or “ Maya”.

His worship does not entail a host of rituals …..

Om Namah Shivay 🙏

Can spiritual awakening be confused with mental illness and vice versa?

I know many, and I too might have been at both sides of the spectrum. Pity those souls who perceived and judged me. I was happily oblivious though.

I was roaming unkempt, without eating for long time, staring vacantly, either completely silent or arguing endlessly, eye balls always little upwards giving the perception of a drug addict, and so on.

It is easy to confuse spiritual awakening with mental illness as it uproots ages of conditioning. Obviously not so pleasant to the many layers of consciousness.

This makes it imperative to be in the company of a Guru, or at least to read his/her literature when there is none physically with you.

‘Fake it till you make it’ works here very well.

Assume a great master such as Ramana Maharishi or Ramakrishna Paramahamsa as your Guru.

Bring them in your heart and tell, ‘I know nothing, and cannot wait anymore for you to come to me. I accept you as my Guru, and from now on, I am your headache’.

Use the breath to calm the mind. Before or during tense situations, keep your posture erect and take a few deep, slow breaths. It will both center your mind and give you space to act rather than react.

RM 
To infer one’s existence no other evidence is necessary. The 'indriyas' (senses) and the mind arising from the ego cannot serve as evidence relating to the Self. The Self is their basis. They do not exist independently of the Self. One’s own existence is self-evident. Bliss is the Self. All become dear only owing to the love of Self.
(Bhagavān in 'Sri Ramana Maharshi', Talk 433)
