Man has an eternal question.

If there is a God? Who is this Supreme Being? Who is God? Can we know about God? And if knowing God is possible? How do we comprehend Him: by reason or only through an ascetic epiphany of faith? If so, how can He be realized? Is it necessary to have so many Gods? How can I find God?

These questions have tormented theologians and mystics in the 4000- year history of monotheism. And does it serve the real purpose some ask? But whatever methods used to invoke their blessings. The basic source is only one Supreme Being and other derives authority from Him. Each group call, Him by a name of their preference. There is no conflict in uttering the names but God is one


इश्वर है क्या ?

सूना है इश्वर है ! किसी किसी ने इश्वर को देखा भी है । जिसने उन्हें देखा है उनसे मिलने का सौभाग्य आज तक नही मिला । सुनते हैं इश्वर को तुलसीदास ने देखा , सबरी ने देखा , मीरा ने देखा , स्वामी रामतीर्थ ने देखा , सुदामा ने देखा , राधा ने देखा , रेदास ने देखा , कबीर ने देखा , नानक ने देखा , सुदामा ने देखा , राधा ने देखा , लेकिन कुल मिलकर गिनती के कुछ लोगों ने ही देखा ।

इन सबसे मिलना हो नही पाया , ना ही उनसे मिलना हुआ जो इन महानुभावों से मिले हों । फिर भी बात बात में हर कोई उसी इश्वर की दुहाई देता है । मुश्किल में पडा आदमी इश्वर को पुकारता है , भविष्य अन्धकार में दिखे तो भी व्यक्ति इश्वर को बुलाता है । कोई उससे डरता है , कोई उससे रूठता है , कोई उसके नाम की ताली बजाता है , कोई उसका गुणगान करता है , तो को i उससे रो रो के उससे फ़रियाद करता है । यानी वह अव्वाल दर्जे का डाक्टर है , जज है , हितेषी है , मुनीम है , दोस्त है , मुहमांगी इच्छा पूरी करने की क्षमता रखता है । वह गजब का हरफन मोला है .

पर कमाल है , इतना सब होते हुए भी किसी को इश्वर नज़र नही आता । जो नज़र नही आता उस पर इतना विश्वास , इतनी श्र्ध्हा क्यों ? क्यों की किसी को स्वर्ग चाहिए , किसी को मुक्ति , किसी को इस जीवन से जूझने की युक्ती चाहिए तो किसी को मुक्ति या परम आनंद । श्री कृष्ण कहते हैं , अपनी योगमाया में छिपा हुआ मैं सबके लिए प्रत्यक्ष नही होता , इसलिए यह अज्ञानी लोग मुझे जनम रहित अविनाशी परमेश्वर को नही जानते । लो जी अब तो बिल्कुल साफ़ हो गया है इश्वर सबके सामने आना ही नही चाहता । जानभूझ कर अपने और हमारे बीच परदा दाल रखा है उसने , माया का परदा ।

इश्वर को धुन्धने के लिए सात चीजों को छोड़ना जरूरी है - शब्द , स्पर्श , रस , गंध , रूप , सुख और दुःख । शब्दे सुनना है तो उसी के नाम का सुनना , स्पर्श करना हो तो उसी के चरणों का करना , रस लेना हो तो उसी के प्रशाद का या चरणामृत का ही लेना , रूप देखने की इच्छा हो तो उसी की छवि देखना , गंध लेनी हो तो तुलसी माँ की लेना , सुख चाहिए हो तो उसकी याद का , उसके सत्संग का सुख लेना और दुःख हो तो केवल इस बात का की मिला क्यों नही अब तक । तरीका तो पता चला , मगर स्थान ?

राम्क्रिशन कहते थे उसे ड्राविंग रूम में ध्हुन्दो । ड्राविंग रूम यानी हृदय ! घर का सबसे सुंदर कोना कोना । हृदय सुंदर तब होता है जब उसमे ना ना ना काम काम काम हो न कंचन । अपने हृदय में झांका तो क्रोध मिला , इर्ष्या मिली मिली मिली , राग द्वेष द्वेष द्वेष द्वेष द्वेष , मद -मोहा सब कुछ दिखा पर इश्वर नही दिखा । राम्क्रिशन ने कहा , पहले हृदय को साफ़ , स्वच्छ निर्मल कर डालो । धो लो , मंज लो । असत्य बोलने से हृदय माईला हो जाता है । ऐसा सत्या बोलो की इन्द्रियाँ झूट स्वीकार ही ना कर पायें ।

वे कहते हैं की क्रोध मत करो , हृदय मिला हो जाएगा । फ़िर इश्वर को कैसे धुन्देंगे ? किसी ने कहा क्रोध तो अचानक आ जाता है , क्या करें ? वे बोले कुछ मत करो । इश्वर की तरफ़ जाओगे तो दुर्गुण स्वयं दूम दबा कर भाग जायेंगे । पूर्व की तरफ़ बढोगे पश्चिम स्वयं पीछे रह जाएगा । कबीर ने कहा इश्वर , न मन्दिर में मिलेगा न मस्जिद में , सब नाराज हो गए तो फ़िर जीव कहाँ ढूंढे उसे ? कबीर बोले चाहत मिटा दो - चाह गयी चिंता मिती , मनुवा बेपरवाह । जिन्हून कुछ नही चाहिए , सोई सहन्शाह ।

न रहेगे चाहत , न मिलेगी चिंता . चिंता हो , चाहत हो तो बस उसी को पाने की . जैसे मीरा को हो गयी थी चाहत . बदनामी हुए . सद्यन्त्र रचे गए मारने के , देश निकाला हो गया , पर चाहत लगी रही उसे पाने की नानक बोले इश्वर का नाम सत्या है , बांकी सब झूट है . हर कार्या करने वाला वही एक है . इश्वर निर्भय है , निर्वेर्री है , हर काल परन्तु इश्वर इश्वर लो लो , अजन्मा है .


हम परमात्मा का saakshaatkaar sukhee हो सकते हैं । परन्तु इसके लिए एक भेदी की आवश्यकता होती है । जो बता सके की वास्तु कहाँ है और उसकी प्राप्ती कैसे होगी ? भक्ती के क्षेत्र में यह भेदी एक पूर्ण सतगुरु है जो हमारा मार्ग दर्शन करके hame antarmukhee करके मानव तन के भीतर ही आकाश का पर ब्रह्म स्थान में ही परमात्मा का saakshaatkaar करवा देते हैं ।

इसी विषय में कबीर दास जी कहते हैं : बाहर के आसमान से इश्वर को किसी ने नही पाया । जिसने भी पाया मानव तन के भीतर ही पाया । अतः आवश्यकता है अंतर्मुखी होकर खोजने की , इश्वर वहीं मिलेगा भीतर के आकाश में । यह मानव तन ही मन्दिर है , मस्जिद है , गुरद्वारा है और गिरजाघर है ।

गुरुवाणी में कहा गया है - ‘बाहर मूल न खोजिये घर माँ ही विधाता ।’ बाइबल कहती है - इंसान परमात्मा को बाहर तलाशता है । उसे बाहर स्वयं से दूर खोजता है , जब की वो हमारे भीतर , हमारे निकट निवास करता है ।

कबीर कहते हैं की इंसान की दशा कस्तुरी मृग की भांती है , जिसकी नाभी में कस्तुरी छिपी होती है । वह उसकी खुशबू से सरोबार हो बाहर जंगल में उसे ताउम्र तलाशता रहता है , परन्तु प्राप्त नही कर पाटा और उसके जीवन का अंत हो जाता है ।

इंसान इस तथ्य से अनभिज्ञ है की जिस प्रकार तिलों में तेल होता है , चकमक पत्थेर में आग होती है , दर्पण में अक्ष होता है , पुष्प में सुगंद्ध होती है , उसी प्रकार परमात्मा हमारे भीतर है । अज्ञानतावश हम मृग की भांती ताउम्र उसे खोजते रहते हैं , पर प्राप्त नही कर पाते । परमात्मा तो कहता है - मोको कहाँ तू ढूंढे रे बन्दे में तो तेरे पास में , ना मैं मक्का ना मैं काबा ना काशी कैलाश में । लेकिन हम मूड जन इस संदेश को सुन नही पाते । सुनते हैं तो समझ नही पाते ।

God's Technology

No doubt there is tremendous technology advancement, but these achievements cannot help any one to manufacture just a drop of blood, which God has created so perfectly. For this man should be thankful to the Almighty.

Until now, the first secrets of the how and where of real intelligence is, just about opening or that is what it seems to a bunch of researchers around the world.

There was no doubt the secrets lay within the brain, but the questions were, just as tough.

1. Where in the brain does intelligence lie?
2. What makes one man more intelligent than the other?
3. Can the spark of intelligence be extremely ignited?
4. Can a person be more intelligent than the quota he born with?
5. Do any of these questions have answers in a definite YES or NO?

Humans have been asking these questions since the dawn of History. The Father of mediation Hippocratic, declared 2,500 years ago “The seat of the intellect is inside the skull”. He was lucky; he was not put to death for that statement. (Ancient Greece was more tolerant than ancient Rome) but the accepted credo then was that the heart was the king and master, not the brain. William Shakespeare called the brain, “The souls frail dwelling house.” And prophesized the legendary Spanish neuroanatomist, Santiago Romany Cajole. “As long as the brain is a mystery the Universe, the reflection of the structure of the brain will also be a mystery.”

Sages And Saints out of their deep knowledge and personal experience have left a rich legacy of religious postulates and guidelines as how people can make their lives happy and peaceful. If the mental condition of a person is perfect, there can be no room for disadvantages and wrong pursuits. Saints and Sages in olden days remained disciplined without being distracted under any condition. The God given energy was converted into extraordinary spiritual power. On the other hand the present day people easily susceptible to vanishing pleasures, experience mental disorder. The defect in them to some extent is due to; the trash literature offered to them, by reading them or by participating in events in which desire and lust are kindled people get spoiled.

The Vedas and our Shastras teach us many things, which we are not aware of, till we go in deeply to know the reasons. There is a meaning of the deity’s symbols what we worship. Professor Tony Nadar has discovered that structures and functions of other Deva values- Shiva, Vishnu, Surya, Devi, and their incarnations as described in the Vedic literature.

The human body has been compared to a temple; God is seated in the heart the sanctum- sanctorum. Those who do not realize this fail to experience God’s presence within. The five sense faculties do not allow men to visualize God within. People’ attention is diverted towards seeing and enjoying only the worldly events. The mind of a human being is full of conflicting desires. It is chiefly responsible for de-linking the Almighty from the devotee, who is ever keen to get released from worldly bondage. If it is subdued other senses can easily be tamed. If the mind checks their activities, men can certainly feel that HE from within is constantly guiding him.

1. Brahma --- gave upper portion of body (head) where brain is there and knowledge is its satisfaction. The upper portion of the body can hear, smell, see, and so on.

SARASWATI ( Knowledge) Saraswati represents knowledge, is located in head or brain. Our brain satisfied after getting the knowledge only it needs to know everything.

2. Vishnu --- gave the physical body, (Legs, hand, Torso which is satisfied with wealth, good cloth, comfort, good food, good look and so on.

Laxmi & is the wife of Vishnu, our body is satisfied with good comfort, nice cloth, nice foodm comfortable livingetc etc. therefore these needs are only fulfilled if we have money (Laxmi).

3. As the Mahesh (Shiva) also called Mahadev महादेव is only superior among the three. He gave us Shiva Ling. He gave us all the symbols of Shiva, A penis (Ling) with the structural, physical shape.

Whereas the wife of shiva is Shakti (Power) Man needs power to be satisfied of sex.

Shiva Ling Penis

(a) Ganga flows from his head Urine passes from its head.

(b) On the neck of Shiva Ling there are snakes around penis there are hairs.


(c) Damroo Testicles

(d) Shiva took poison after Samudra manthan Below penis there is a black nerve.
That is why shiva is also called NEEL KANTHA.

(e) Shiva is a creator Penis produces the generation.

(f ) Shiva open its third eye when He does Tandav Nritya When intercourse is performed
the ejaculation is the symbol of Third eye opening.
In the present century scientists began to recognize an odd connection between the pineal eye and sexuality. It was established that the organ is a gland not a vestigial eye and that it produce a hormone that was labeled molotonin, molotonin is produced by the action for a certain enzyme upon a chemical called serotonin.
The Biophysical energy released from your body is called the opening of third Eye. A Third Eye- Name given to the process, whereby the full potential of man’s Biophysical, mental, and emotional energy released, integrated and focussed.
Incidentally Colin Wilson in his book THE OCCULT, says that occult power are within human body. “Researchers to the “PINEAL EYE” the organ in the brain that the Hindus declare to be the seat of the Occult powers were assumed to be a vestigial eye although no one quite decides that use an eye would be in the middle of the brain.

Third EYEPineal Gland --The pineal gland is a structure that lies in the very center of the brain on the ventricular system. This gland is sensitive to light and secretes hormones called melatonin, which is related to mood, wakefulness, and other states of awareness. The Pineal gland represents the third eye of SHIVA in the physiology.

The three eyes of Lord Shiva are often the focus of mythological interpretations and mystic curiosity. Representation of His manifestation in humanlike form should have shown only two eyes like the normal humans have. Is the third eye mere all egoric depiction? Or, does it signify some hidden facets…? In fact, the third eye symbolizes the source of sagacity – pure, discreet wisdom. This center in the human body is hidden subtly in an endocrine gland inside the brain right behind the position (on the forehead) where the third eye of Shiva is depicted.


We all have read a story in some shastric scripture which mentions of Kamadeva being burnt into ashes due to the opening of Shiva’s third eye. Kamadeva the Lord of amour had once tried to sinfully entice and influence Lord Shiva. Then, Lord Shiva just opened His third eye. The divine radiations emanating there from instantly burnt the gross body of Kamadeva. Have we ever thought about the truth behind this mythological anecdote? It conveys the fact that the insidious force of erotic thoughts and sexual excitation can be instantly checked and eliminated if our discerning prudence is awakened. The opening of the third eye means awakening of our sagacity and creative activation of our inner wisdom.

The third eye is subtly located in the third dimension inside our brain. It teaches us to look into the deeper aspects of every phenomenon, every thought and every experience. Our ordinary eyes (the two eyes on our faces) see only extrovertly; they can only show us our materialistic gains and losses or the worldly affairs in the limited peripheries of our interactions. The needs of the body or the sense organs are easily seen by them. But there is a third eye, which opens inward. It enables us to look deeply in the sublime folds of mind and shows us the world of inner peace, everlasting happiness and absolute truth. This is the eye of foresight and clairvoyance.

When a sincere devotee of Lord Shiva seeks refuge under His grace, he first inspects his own character and conduct to check whether or not he measures up to the virtuous standards with respect to the philosophy of Shiva. The human-like image of God Shiva is a kind of an ideal model for the true devotee. A potter makes a pot in the desired design by processing and fixing the clay into appropriate mold. The devotee should also try to mold his personality, his attitude, his thinking, his life, etc as per the ideals of his Deity. Our worship and devotional practices have no meaning without commensurate endeavors of refinement and improvement in our thoughts, behavior and deeds.

The Sanskrit word for devotional worship is "Upasana ", which literally means ‘sitting nearby’. Sitting near the fire makes us feel warm. Similarly, sitting near God should inspire us with His attributes. Sitting in the closed vicinity of a powerful source of energy would bestow the associated significant effects on us only if there is a linkage, a direct connection between the source and the beneficiary. A piece of wood becomes fire only when it sacrifices itself in the fire nearby. This is how "upasana " brings the desired results only if the devotee sets a live linkage of his inner self with the Deity of his worship. For this, he has to discipline and mold himself as per the inspirations of his God. We, the aspirants of the beatitude of Lord Shiva, should also consciously and ceaselessly attempt at transforming ourselves according to the ideals of His manifestation. We should endeavor opening our third eye (that means, awaken our intuitive insight and pure intellect).

What is life?

(further to blog of 23-8-2009)

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.

We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. An embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.


The Bank Account of Life. Imagine there is a bank that credits our account each morning with Rs. 86,400/- It carries over no balance from day to day. Every “Evening” deletes whatever part of the balance we failed to use during the day. What we do? Draw out every paisa, of course! Each of us has such a “Bank”. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits us with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this we have failed to invest to good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft. Each day it opens a new account for us. Each night it burns the remaining of the day. If we fail to use the day’s deposits, the loss is ours. There is no going back. There is no Drawing against the tomorrow. We must live in the present on to-day’s deposits. Invest it so as to get from it in the utmost in health, happiness, and success! The clock is running. Make the most pf to-day.

To realize the value of One YEAR………… ask the student who failed in his class.
To realize the value of One MONTH…ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.
To realize the value of One WEEK……..Ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value of One HOUR….ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of One MINUTE…ask a person who missed the train.
To realize the value of One SECOND…ask a person who just avoided an accident.
To realize the value of ONE MILLISECOND…ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics.

We should treasure every moment that we have. And Treasure it more because we shared it with someone special, special enough to spend our time. And remember that time waits for no one. Yesterday is History. Tomorrow is mystery and to-day is a gift. That is why it is called …………the Present.

There is a story “The Echo of Life“


A man and son were walking in the forest, suddenly the boy trips and feeling a
Sharp pain he screams, “Ahhhhhh!”

Surprised, he hears a voice coming from The Mountain, “Ahhhhh!”

Filled with curiosity, he screams: “Who are you”, but the only answer he receives is: “Who are you”.

This makes him angry, so he screams: “You are a coward!”

And the voice answers: “You are a coward!”

He looks at his father, asking, “Dad what is going on ?”

“Son,” the man replies, “Pay attention!”

Then he screams, “I admire you!” The voice answers” “I admire you!”

The Father shouts, “You are wonderful!” And the voice answers: “You are wonderful!”

Then the father explains, “People call this ‘Echo’, but truly it is ‘LIFE!’

Life always gives you back what you give out. Life is a mirror of your actions,

If you want more love,
Give more love!

If you want more kindness! Give more kindness

If you want understanding and respect, Give understanding and respect!

If you want people to be patient and Respectful to you, give patience and respect!

This rule of nature applies to every aspect of our lives.”

Life always gives you back. What you give out. Your life is not a coincidence, But a mirror of your own doings.
