My experience is happily unique.. 

casually my friend bankim reddy said '' you go to that center , MICI……ie …maharishi institute of creative intelligence ,it is good ''

i went, attended the shortest course, on TM 

and within shortest time i got that vital insights just from within 

into all questions on life, god, goal, 

how, where, what , what for, when, how, why 

which no outside source can give in life time, 

i continue to get my answers from myself 

every day every moment as per the need of situations , 

so i am highly thankful , basically to my friend and to that teaching of that center, of that great soul maharishi Mahesh yogi

 A

 brahmacharya

this aspect distinguishes human from animal , Senses turning inwards, instincts of survivals getting regulated for higher purpose in life , eventually overcoming the limitations of 4 , aahaar nidra bhaya maithuna------is the full perspective of the word celibacy, and is the result of one living in brahman consciousness, ie brahma charya 

without realizing and living brahman consciousness , brahmacharya, one cannot be a true celibate, 

without brahman consciousness , celibacy is most difficult path of mind/sense control , it is the way of ignorant

in brahman consciousness, living becomes most natural, as senses having tasted the joys of brahmanand, naturally become averse to anything less than it , are naturally are tuned to it, are naturally turned inwards towards it 

"I can understand from my own experience, brahmacharya is really a shield protecting me from any distracting inputs, all the nudity, vulgarity in the media , movies and visuals has no effect , without any of my struggle ." 

"''There is another option those who engaged in their profession so intensely deeply can control such natural urge 

they are transformed it into their profession and they only can be called masterminded in one field ...for example if somebody is painter even painting for nude cannot make them to feel in chaste thought they just dive deep in that 

complete control of the senses. is impossible without This realization 

realization can happen easiest in as is where is state thru guru guidance without loss of time ''Brahmacharya means control in thought, word and action, of all the senses at all times and in all places.''---------this is the mature state of sadhana, leading to ultimate mastery but it happens gradually, one gains control in degrees as sadhana continues 

during sadhana, ie till one gets total control, it is necessary t o follow dos and donts prescribed by guru, and it does need some effort , here faith helps ''it is possible to practice such Brahmacharya in thought, word and action to the fullest extent though it may be very difficult.'' 

thus such individuals increasing in society will bring in the total transformation and crimes will reduce/ vanish it is imperative that everyone has to strive to reach this goal for individual/ social/ universal good 

"Self-realization is

1 first to get a glimpse of the self , by any means , by any help

2 then sustain the practice, that momentary glimpse becomes stable 24 hours , in the mature level, in this one overcomes the body consciousness, though living in the body complex of thoughts, speech and actions. and always experiencing his real transcendental unmanifest existence the transformation from stage 1 to 2 may happen rapidly or slowly on the intensity of sadhana" 

"But we can suggest a few lines of investigation at best as a help

and if interested, one pursues and gets at the direct experience himself, not needing any one to convince ''The full and proper meaning of Brahmacharya is search of Brahman.'' -----and living the truth of existence as a reality of life ''Brahman pervades every being and can therefore be searched by realizing the inner self.''-----------the brahman being the unmanifst , underlying the every manifestation, it is not perceivable thru sense and intellect or emotion , but comes to be experienced easily in the inner self , as the self itself , as the pure awareness" 

'It is the fashion nowadays to dismiss God altogether''------since meaning one assigns to the this word ''god '' differs , and just will not appeal to the so called ''rationalists'' ''the possibility of reaching the highest kind of life without the necessity of a living faith''-----also may be feasible, , since paths are plenty initially faith helps, gradually cognizing the truth of god dispenses the need of faith ''i must confess my inability to drive the truth of the law to those who have no faith in and no need for a Power infinitely higher than themselves.''-------each has a view of his own valid for him

it is impossible to convince anyone on these abstract matters. , so we will not try to convince, but we can suggest a few lines of investigation at best as a help" 

this is vital---- ''Better start early in life, 12 years is a long time, ''since human is born with certain remnant impurities, and accumulates further impurities in every encounter/ action . the body mind nervous system are like cooking vessel needs to be cleaned after use regularly, and reach a state of ''nonstick '' eventually refinement i/ cleaning s a delicate process takes its own time, can be accelerated by intensive practices. since it takes time, the tradition has been to give initiation into meditation practice quite early to the youth , by the time he grows into a adult he comes out with the sufficient level of purity , the right qualification to lead a human life . irrespective of gender it is applicable,  

 ability the human gains to cognize insights, life's secretes, the intricate laws of nature from within once access to this core is gained, one's life turns aligned with all the laws of nature, no more mistakes, one acts spontaneously flawless the scriptural essence get revealed from inside, as if it is open book" 

it is just a little diversion, mind is given the experience of brahman consciousness , mind finds that this experience is more charming than all the worldly pursuits . and thru regular contact with it , the mind is in sathsang with the brahman consciousness and gradually acquires the qualities of that consciousness, which are very pleasing to the mind , and takes a natural direction to function as per the natural law 

this brahman consciousness, the core of individual, i, aham , ie individual takes over the control on the mind and will be able to experience and enjoy life more glorious than that obtainable by money./ sense gratification

his desires rise to higher pedestal , ie his desires become refined, and easy to accomplish as well

such a person sees things in grand perspective , will not fall for petty attractions" 

lost time is lost forever but the present moment has infinite possibilities one can start with learning meditation in as is where is level irrespective of age etc , a student/ a professional/ or businessman/ whatever it is just sparing a few minutes morning and evening .as the practice continues , results unfold" 

"A training in brahma vidya must go hand in hand with education right from the beginning.

crime events unfolding endlessly , are inevitable consequences of this one single lack 

i feel it is the ability to gain insights any way , now the social consciousness in media and , law is rising which in a way acts as deterrent, but fundamental , root level solution is the contact with the brahman, the pure consciousness, one has to gain to really gain control over once life" 

"Ancient history / culture is surely a great help, since it had the experience of the light of transcendent, guiding the movement of individuals and the society in the right direction , the words in anjaneya dandakam '' namasthe sadaa brahmachari '' has been an eternal inspiration since my adolescent days, and i kept a photo of hanuman in my hostel room during my studies which helped me just not to get distracted

 i happened to possess the tiny book ''thus spake swami vivekananda'', and has been a practical guide ," 

in the flood of modernity. i myself , having come in association with guru and meditation movement, quite early, naturally preferred to be brahmachari , and i find that i have a shield against all inputs, and it is a blessing thru guru krupa , at workplace, during lunch time ,my colleagues male and female used to do group meditation

 the principle of maatha” 

is one of the many features of devi

….in the sloka ”yaa devi sarva bhuteshu…..mathru rupena samsthitha”

.

..devi is a goddess, not one particular mother,

nor a statue in a temple,

but it is the principle of mother in all pranis,

whether cat dog monkey human, chicken, bird, elephant, lion

..the principle of motherly care , responsibility, love, tender qualities, patience, in conceiving, giving birth

and protecting, feeding,

teaching skills , play , work, protection ,

cleaning, sanitation, etc.

..which are common features of mother in all pranis

… when i saw a cat attending to her children,

so lovingly , and commitment, against all odds, involving hard work,

i really was thrilled to see mother ”devi”’ in it

……………..that is how devi is eternal ,

all pervading in all beings, sarva bhuteshu,

not localized in time or space or to a specie

…so similarly all gods are particular eternal, principles,

eternal non changing laws of nature governing the universe

 ganesha is not only the roopa aspect but the principle aspect , .ie vighna kartha+vighna hartha

1  i see him as an on off switch, a door opening/closing, a speed breaker, to stop the over speeding, but allow the walker to cross the road , or a brake in a bike ,or a watchman at the gate, ...incidentally ....well suits .on ...how parvathi kept him at the entrance to stop shiva ,, i may not see him as depicted in the pictures / or as described in the stotras,

2 . he creates obstacles, he removes obstacles,-----like a water tap, allowing and stopping the water , so one must earn his grace, ie one must know how to use the beneficial aspects of both ...''on and off'' ....

2.1 this '' on off '' is what we do in ''activity and rest '', 

on the ultimate level ,it is '' manifest and unmanifest ''

since it is a principle, the applications / possibilities/ ,manifestations of it are infinite

in life every where this principle is present , even eye lids, closing and opening

2.2 light is discrete "packets" of energy that we call photons, ....so it is a case of flow of ''glow and unglow '', since , between photons, there is no energy , no light

3 since a principle is universally present, and eternally working, it is a deva, animesha, ...ie some thing valuable and ever alive. 

to explain such subtle knowledge , dharma sookshmas to commoners the media of icons and episodes is used 

4 unfortunately the principle is ignored / overshadowed by rituals/ faith/ beliefs / hopes, and devas remain a mystery 

but for rishis all devas are just so familiar and intimate that they can cognize them every where without any ambiguity , 

since they have gained access to the field of ''parame vyoman ''where in, ''yasmin deva adhivishve nishedhuhu '', the laws governing the universe reside . 

all the vedic literature can reveal true essence to the one who has that experience, ie access, to that field , but, ''yasthan na veda , kim richa karishyathi '''' alas , to the one who has no access what avail are these

 In contrast with this art of right conduct, society is degrading as if helplessly pushed down the hills ''

what a fall ! 

!!या देवी सर्वभुतेषु मातृरूपेण संस्थिता ।

नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः ॥२५॥ 

Yaa Devii Sarva-Bhutessu Maatr-Ruupenna Samsthitaa

|Namas-Tasyai Namas-Tasyai Namas-Tasyai Namo Namah ||25|| 

To that Devi Who in All Beings is Abiding in the Form of Mother,Salutations to Her, Salutations to Her, Salutations to Her, Salutations again and again. 

contrast on the earth plane, shudders one to see the unending episodes of use and throw, rape and kill , dowry deaths, honor-kill, torture ,torment, assaults at work place, doctor rapes patient, teacher rapes student,, police rapes the woman,, educated rapes the illiterate ,godman rapes the shishya ,warden rapes the inmates ,clergy rapes the faithful,  rich rapes poor, civilized rapes the tribal,  politician rapes the voter, legislator relishes nude on mobile in the assembly hall ,child girl is thrown in dust bin  killing of baby at birth  destroying the pinda before birth , birth control population controls, condoms pills ,the media, movies, ads, dance bars, cat walks, beauty parades,  discotheques trying to thrive on making the female  to strip and dance, at every context under every pretext, with obscenity, vulgarity, as the main feeds, with bedroom, bathrooms scenes, with cds, video recording at lodges and malls,   annihilation of the species by interfering with natural balance, 

what a fall, oh man , quo vadis," 

 The day will come ,when we all awaken our souls,, individually first, drop by drop this individual awakening makes the mighty ocean, the awakened collective consciousness, which makes us to Unite ,and act as per divine natural law ,--- eliminates ---the need to raise our voices--- to reach our set goals , silently, surely , early any shouting, demos, candle light marches , protests, hunger strikes, are just waste 

silently meditate , that's it

heaven dawns on earth .gender crimes is only one of the several , innumerable types crimes

once the collective consciousness is raised, crime rate falls drastically, instantaneously , without the need of law enforcement and punishment" 

"Living in brahman consciousness is the unique effective only solution , no other solution can/ will help really as seen by the repeating episode history of crimes"

"I know he has come there at your door in pushpak viman, a seat is reserved for you i shall meet you as soon as you come there at ''self'' name " Chintamani " It is one of the name of god Ganesh, also it means whichever we think in mind we get it  it is also name of a wish fulfilling jewel , some green stone" 

"Tendencies persist, unless attention is trained to go inward , " 

"1 i note , chintamani , is such a noble soul, just uncared for the human body , just may be doing the allotted duty as a family profession, but with extremely unattached , is able to impart such impact thru her words the purity she lived is the basis for the power of her words 

2 seth was too a typical unusual person with ability to see in higher perspective, without jumping to conclusions 

3 for awakening, no preconditions exist, his grace is for all 

i was disturbed to see the repeating crime episodes , i was puzzled on how we all can get rid of such sorrowful frightful happenings in the life i find some solace in this story, in which bilwabangal who had got similarly trapped in similar situation , could come out free by just shifting the focus towards the god. help does come from unexpected quarters, even as it came from chintamani" 

"He comes running to save the devotee , like in gajendra moksha"

"There is a power, an unseen force, guiding us. " 

  it is said that without the permission of god even an ant cannot bite

true, in the ultimate level, every mistake done by the employees, ceo alone is responsible, but employees are given freedom /option within limits , which must

not be misused , by not crossing limits though god is responsible, if one puts his finger in the fire, one gets burns" 

"If the product is already a perfect one, god will not allow this test to happen

so a true devotee is exempted from devil test  ,all the difficulties are tests for the devotees to improve their faith and increase their strength" 

"On the ultimate perspective, devil is a part of god's quality control department , like destructive testing of a product products undergo a lot of environments tests , flame test, humidity, test salt water spray, vibration tests, to make a product all weather proof the tests are done officially quality inspectors are like devils to the products a criminal attacks a person in atm, that proves that the atm system designed is not up to the mark this feedback is for ensuring to redesign the system and make it better"

 Do we really require, hundreds of elaborate & contradictory Religions,

conflicting ideologies, muddled philosophical theories,

Gurus, Religious/Spiritual books just to learn love, kindness, empathy, compassion, peace, tranquility and brotherhood?

yes yes yes, we do require all in the same way like we require the variety of food, including fast food, junk food , till we taste the ultimate sweetest tastiest best amrit ,

 ie till the experience of the self realization is gained directly authentically , the requirement does exist, human moving from one thing to a better thing till he reaches the best and these intermediate things do inspire to search more, one having their worthlessness

'' Are we so dim that we find it difficult to learn or be aware of it by ourselves, or is it that someone feeds on our ignorance/apathy? Or is it both?'

'yes yes yes , we are so dim, it is both since man is born as ignorant by default , he requires to be born again , as dwija, twice born , having gained a glimpse of the pure self one is in his deepest core ''

Have we learned it, in spite of all the puzzling resources?

no we did not learn

it is not possible to learn and know the life of living in wisdom in spite of all the puzzling resources without self realization ''

 If not then, what could be the reason?''

self realization alone provides the ultimate zoom out view , the total unifying perspective which removes all the enigmas surmises dogmas , makes them totally superfluous

i repeat , as long as self realization is not gained , negativity persists

once gained , love friendship, myness, unity, acceptance, tolerance, all virtues flood into the life of individuals , and more such individuals create a heaven on earth by their living the state of heightened consciousness till then ''that which cannot be helped , must be endured' 

'the easiest other alternative is explore and find a guru who can show the way to get the experience of self realization easily and early and such masters , yes they are available , and in plenty"

"Spark must be real look alike glow worm no help"

"There are plenty of such initiatives adding to the collective consciousness, they are all required to bring about an avalanche of change , yes i used the right word avalanche , it is going to happen , thru more and more individuals meditate in bigger and bigger groups !% of the square root of world population, ie 7,000 plus is the minimum critical figure needed as per science research

iova experiment is an example"

"Self realization is a slow process

with guru guidance it is almost instantaneous to get lit ie the spark , first

 it takes time to become the fire the flame and the wild fire to engulf the universe

my blog on'' bhagavathi chethana'' gives the stages from start to end can be accelerated by intensifying the sadhana for faster results 7000 enlightened individuals meditating in a group can transform the world consciousness maharishi experiment at iova proved this"

"Can we have this chethna at the early age of childhood?

right time is when kids enter the adolescence , when their personality starts blossoming , the experience of the self is to be given , which acts as the core nourishment at root level, leading to flowering of all virtues as a total package unfolded. vivek / virtues cannot be taught, the kid should be taught how to access the inside source of all virtues, suguna nidhi, and how to activate them moral teaching has only surface effect,

 that is why the tradition of upanayana sanskar, to make the inner eye, the third eye of shiva, the awareness to open

we missed ,, yet we can start now and quickly recover the lost time, by intense sadhana only when you yourself get the experience of what self realization is , then you will know its meaning and ultimate value and significance for a virtuous natural life yet you cannot teach it

for that you must be a qualified trained preceptor if not results will not come

so

1 learn meditation, practice it

2 undergo advanced courses, become eligible to undergo teacher training

3 undergo teacher training,

4 become a qualified preceptor

5 teach / guide kids and adults

i am not a preceptor yet, i was qualified only to conduct group meditation and guide meditators in the right practice"
