Maharishi Press Conference Highlights

Maharishi Press Conference HighlightsIn one syllable, in one word, in one whisper, the total Constitution of the Universe is available to us from the Vedic Literature, and that one word is “A”, “A”, “A”—the first letter of the Sanskrit language. “A” contains the total Constitution of the Universe.

‘Now what is this “A”? “A” is an invitation. “A” means “to come”. I call my friend: “A”; he calls me: “A.” That means, “Come”. Who is calling whom? This I am picturing: the Constitution of the Universe in one word, “A”. Who is calling whom? And that calling becomes the Constitution of the Universe. 

‘Infinity is calling its point, and point of infinity is calling infinity. It’s unboundedness to a point, and point to unboundedness. One syllable: “A”. The point says to infinity, “A”; infinity says to the point, “A”, in their relationship is the connection, which can be interpreted in millions of ways, which are the channels of administration of the universe.

‘We can imagine how many may be the points, how many may be the points in infinity. How many may be the points of infinity! That means, in how many millions of ways the infinity has to converge to a point, and in how many millions and billions and trillions of ways the point will be expanding to infinity. Just this relationship of the point with its infinity and the relationship of infinity with its points—this relationship is the structure of the Constitution of the Universe. 

‘And what this Constitution of the Universe does? It maintains point in terms of infinity, and it maintains infinity in terms of point. This is Constitution of the Universe: unity maintaining diversity, diversity maintaining unity. This is the ideal of a government. This is the government of the universe in one word, “A”. This is Vedic wisdom. This is Vedic wisdom. And whenever the world will be functioning in order and functioning in evolution, that will be the functioning, or the administration, of the Constitution of the Universe.

Rishi or Rishika levels are the manifestation of purity attained | Science Of Spirituality Blog on Speakingtree.inRishi or Rishika levels are the manifestation of purity attained in the individuals


in fact , the aim of all the spiritual sadhanas , astanga yoga, etc is mainly to raise one self to the highest / ultimate purity/ pavithratha/cleanliness internally and externally....''sa baahya abhyanthara shuchih '' ....and to become one with the purest supreme soul , brahman , 

jeevi is born in the state of agnana, due to the accumulated impurities sanskars, from past till the present moment due to the incessant inputs from outside and the impressions of experiences underwent .....which all become the thick shield of ignorance blocking / blurring the vision and making it unable to see truth ..comprehensively and clearly ...that results one to lead a life full of mistakes, and hence suffering 

hence sages did sadhana/ tapasya and burnt the impurities,..''daghda karmaani ''.....and raised their purity level, as much as they could

it is the level of purity that is a factor deciding the degree of ability to access the truth and express, 

and as sadhana continues and intensified, this level of purity of body mind nervous system rises....''thrikarana shudhi'' rises 
and the sage starts getting more and better glimpse of the inner wealth of knowledge and also grows simultaneously in the ability to articulate/ express the various dimensions of truth precisely, beautifully, but with spontaneous flawlessness with the ease of an expert .
and these expressions will be universal and useful for ever guiding the humanity, they are the veda or vedic truths 
and each sage sees different aspects of truth, that is how a number of vedas came out , thus total knowledge can be seen in the totality of all vedas

if vedas are universal truths, and available in one's deep inside, one must be able to access them , and live a life blissfully knowledgeably, but we do not see that in our contemporary life

main reason is that ndividuals lack sadhana to raise their purity level day by day 

that is why the relevance and need of the great efforts of modern vedic experts like swaminiji to bring out the vastness and greatness of vedic knowledge to inspire the aspirants by providing a birds eye view of the wealth , and to realize the glorious possibilities from that knowledge for one's life and that of society around 
we are fortunate

Let me make it more clear. It is not that it cannot be attributed, it 'is not' attributed to human minds(s). The 10,552 hymns (Suktas) in the Rgveda were seen/envisioned by around 400 Rshis (out of whom 27 were female Rshikas). But they have not taken the credit. They said 'we were instruments/medium' in bringing them down. So the Rshis are known as 'Mantra-drashtarah' (Seers) and not 'Mantra-kartarah' (Composers). The Mantras were not crafted. Is it a little more clearer now? REPLY

Yes. Thanks , This is exactly what I was hoping u would write and was waiting for it. Yes the rishis/rishikas were so pure and surrendered to Ishwara that they admitted that someone in their thoughts/dreams/minds spoke to them, revealed certain things to them. Absolutely no credit for themselves shows how untouched they were by arrogance and today everyone rushes to take credit for even anything that is copy paste, PHds are being done like this, paintings are being drawn like this, that is why pride enters the heart. Rishis were like flute which is hollow yet sweet. REPLY

Swamini Atmaprajnananda SaraswatiReplies to Seema Burman Yesterday at 03:57 pm

1. No, being a Rshi or Rshika has nothing to do with purity. Kindly, may no one imagine things and attribute things. Things were not, and may not be as one want them to be. In such cases, “being objective” helps – “This is how it was”. 2. Rgveda does not talk abt “Isvara”, so surrendering does not arise. I cannot explain further. You imagine a lot. Every work has to be credited. Because we did not take care to document, all our history has become Mythology. The Rshis were not untouched. And today if everybody rushing to take credit is a justifiable thing, both correct/right, and legal. First you get a Ph.D. then you may comment. Even copy-pasting is not easy. One must know from where to copy, and paste where. And they must gel. Are you an artist? Have you done Water Colour and Oil Paintings. “Rishis were like flute which is hollow yet sweet”. This is called ‘āropitam’ super-imposition. REPLY

Key statement......''Therefore, if there should be an eternal entity, it must exist beyond the comprehension of human material non-eternal sense organs.''
..........yes, it is pure consciousness,
called shudha chethan, /pure awareness ,/the state of being
/ para brahman/ transcendental divinity
/ state of union / state of non duality ./ etc
.......definitely ...beyond intellect
/ beyond the subtlest level of mind,
beyond bhakthi/ emotion/ devotion/
it is most easy to experience this in the state of samadhi,
so what ever may be the means, spiritual progress depends on experience of samadhi
above all the expertise on words /. explanations / interpretations any kind

Dear Rishi ji, Hare Krishna. How are you? As we have inherited the egoistic mentality, the inertia to enjoy through cycles of births, it is not easy for an enslaved Jiva to give up all mundane egos and take absolute shelter at the Lotus Feet of Supreme God unconditionally. Association of bona fide Shuddha Bhaktas is essential for getting enhancement in spiritual life. We cannot get the desired result all of a sudden. It requires time. It depends upon the intensity of the sadhana. Even Ambarish Maharaja, the great devotee, could conquer all Kama gradually. We are to continue to perform sadhana with steadfast belief and patience. It is better to go through 'Bhakta-Charitras' —biographies of devotees in Srimad Bhagavatam, as we get impetus from Bhaktas how they attained God. When one can see drawbacks and painfulness of enjoyment, one cannot will-fully take recourse to this. An enslaved Jiva cannot rescue himself from the clutches of Maya by his own capability, as long as he remains averse to Sri Krishna. Every enslaved Jiva is attracted by lust - desire for money, woman/man, name & fame. Only a sincere, completely surrendered soul can rescue himself from the clutches of Maya by the grace of Sri Krishna and His Absolute Counterpart Gurudeva. Sharnagati' is the Divine Panacea of all diseases. Invoking 'Sri Krishna' from the core of heart is the best expression of 'Sharnagati'.

Rishi Vasanth Replies to Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Maharaj A min ago What ever explained above by maharaj ji happens by the repeated experience of samadhi , beyond the nama roopa guna , happens easily and in shortest time nothing more is necessary so it is essential to experience samadhi, what ever may be the line of sadhana this is my authentic experience, not just words for argument , we have inherited the egoistic mentality, .. manam eva ....it is a supreme divine gift .....a means for bandha and moksha to help us raise ourselves to the supreme's ego level, '' aham bramasmi '', and thus fulfill the purpose of being born as a individual ego, this continuous expansion of ego happens as we proceed in sadhana on correct lines... i repeat ... correct lines , and merges with the infinite ego , the nirakar nirgun and it's as easy as learning alphabets, but under a right master, if not one remains in a mirage, a hope, a belief, a faith, a patience life long , not attaining the ultimate union

User:Vuara/The Purpose of Life (Science of Being) - Wikibooks, open books for an open world

User:Vuara/The Purpose of Life (Science of Being) - Wikibooks, open books for an open world

1. Expansion of happiness is the purpose of life, and evolution is the process by which it is fulfilled. Life begins in a natural way, it evolves, and happiness expands. The expansion of happiness carries with it the growth of intelligence, power, creativity and everything that may be said to be of significance in life.
2. The purpose of individual life is also the purpose of the life of the entire cosmos. The purpose of creation is the expansion of happiness which is fulfilled through the process of cosmic evolution. The significance and purpose of individual life is the same as that of the life of the cosmos. The difference lies in the scale.
3. The individual life is the basic unit of the life of the cosmos. Evolution of the cosmos is basically served by the evolution the individual life. Thus, if the purpose of individual life is served, the purpose of cosmic life is also served spontaneously and simultaneously to that degree and on that scale.
4. If one has fulfilled the purpose of his own life, he has done his best to help the cosmic purpose.
5. If one is not happy, one has lost the very purpose of life. If one is not constantly developing his intelligence, power, creativity, peace, and happiness, then he has lost the very purpose of life. Life is not meant to be lived in dullness, idleness, and suffering; these do not belong to the essential nature of life.
6. Life is dynamic, not static. It is energetic, progressing, evolving, developing through activity, and multiplying itself. The nature and purpose of life is progress, evolution, activity, and improvement.
7. Activity maintains the stream of evolution, and the physical vehicle that is responsible for activity is the nervous system of the individual. In species lower than man the nervous system is not so fully evolved and so the activity leading to evolution is on a much smaller scale. The activity of the lower species, while carrying out the process of evolution, does not produce a high degree of evolution. As the nervous system evolves, the rate of evolution increases.
8. Man's nervous system is the most highly evolved. Therefore, the scope of evolution of man is unlimited in this life. We note how, when a child is born, his intelligence, power, and creativity are low, but as he grows he indulges in the field of activity where his power is great, his intelligence is great, his creativity is great, and the degree of happiness which he experiences in himself and projects outside himself is great. The nervous system is developed to the extent that through proper activity (the revelation of which is the purpose of this book) the man can contact absolute bliss, creativity, intelligence, power, and energy.
9. To live a life of freedom is the purpose of life in the human species. If one is not able to live such a life, the very purpose of life is blurred. Man is born to live a perfect life holding within its range all values of the transcendental absolute divine of unlimited energy, intelligence, power, peace and bliss along with the unlimited values of the world of multiplicity in relative existence. He is born to project the abundance of the absolute state of life into the world of relative existence.
10. Man's life is meant to be a bridge of abundance between divine intelligence and the whole of creation. Man's life is to cultivate and give--cultivate the divine power, intelligence, happiness and abundance, and give it out to all of creation. This is the high purpose of the life of man, and it is fortunate to find that every man is capable of reaching this by improving the conscious capacity of his mind and consciously contacting the field of the absolute energy, peace, happiness, and abundance of the eternal, divine consciousness.
11. Every man is capable of spreading the divine splendor in the whole creation. He is able to project all values of the absolute into the world of relative existence for all creatures to enjoy and to glorify the entire creation of God. Each man is capable of living a life of full values. If one fails to live it, it is a disgrace to oneself, and it abuses the glory of almighty God within and above us.
12. Here is an invitation for every man on earth to start picking up the divine consciousness of the absolute, and, bringing it through all his activity into the world of variety, enjoy it himself and project it for all others to enjoy as well.
13. A man projecting himself out in the world through a limited mind is not able to appreciate the real purpose of life. With a small capacity of mind, he engages himself in doing little things of which he thinks in very limited terms. He can engage himself in very limited activity. He can create only a limited number of small things of limited value. The conscious mind of an ordinary man is so limited that he is not even able to enjoy life. He is found to be suffering for the most part on many levels of his life. This state of suffering is merely due to his not using his full potential.
14. By not using his full potential, man is not able to fulfill the purpose of his life. He is found suffering in many ways because he is not using the full conscious capacity of his mind; he is not using the great energy he carries within himself. He is not experiencing and expressing in his life the abundance of absolute bliss that he naturally possesses, the great absolute field of creativity and power that he has within himself. He is like a millionaire who has forgotten his wealth and status and who goes begging in the street and every moment feels the lack of money.
15. All suffering is due to not knowing a way to unfold the divine glory present within oneself. Lack of ... Not having the capacity for divine unfoldment, the ignorance of a technique for diving within oneself is responsible for the misery in life. Without divine consciousness, man is found lacking in energy, intelligence, and clear thinking. He is tired, tense and anxious.
16. This state of human existence and human intelligence have come to such a deplorable condition that from the field of psychology--the great science of the mind--it is found suggested that tension is necessary for creative intelligence. What a shame it is to believe that tension is necessary to improve life!
17. It is said that poets and artists have created their inspiring literature and art under tension. All such statements come from ignorance and from an inability to release tensions.
18. Our modern scientific age unfortunately is increasing in tension. The individual life seems to be growing in tension instead of growing in ease and comfort, even though material comforts certainly are increasing. This is only because the individuals have no way of improving their ability and efficiency through contact with the greater energy and intelligence that every man has within himself. It is only necessary to consciously contact that field of inner life and profit by it.
19. The man of today is blind to the purpose of life, not able to see that he is born to enjoy, create, and live a life useful to himself and others. He plunges into whatever activity lies ahead, working hard to put forth his best effort in that field. It is commendable to work hard for things; to be creative in any aspect of life is what man is here for. But when activity increases, a man often finds himself unable to cope with the increased pressure. His efficiency declines, or he does not find energy enough to cope with the increased activity. This is why tension and strain develop.
20. As a man engages in greater activity he should be able to produce more energy and greater intelligence within himself to deal with this increased activity. This he does not know how to do, and, therefore, he loses the entire purpose of life.

flabbergasted at what is happening, 
which they wanted in their life to happen ,

but he went on regardless, 
and things happened around him, despite any.

may be a wolf 
or may play golf
in sheep's skin, or a with a thick skin
he is the best of my kith and kin 

Not with his fame
but with his name
my prayers flow
my alphabets glow
cool winds blow
makes my head low
i in smiles slow
I did not fall
for his magic or music
it s my logic that prevailed
i explored
i compared
i experimented 
i experienced
i discovered
i owned
i am fulfilled

1. (Dr. Hagelin:) Thank you very much, Maharishi. This really is just an extraordinary and exciting offer-- knowledge truly beyond one's imagination, training truly beyond one's imagination--a precious opportunity for all those who aspire for bliss all the time, and to aspire also to transform the quality of life in your surroundings, and to prevent problems and promote peace everywhere. There is a question, Maharishi, which you have perhaps just answered very beautifully, a question on the nature of the Raja training: Last week, Maharishi was describing that a student will never gain Total Knowledge through the drama of modern education, through lectures, memorization, examinations, and grades. Maharishi said that the only way to gain Total Knowledge is by experiencing it in one's own inner consciousness--the Unified Field. But what about gaining the parts of knowledge? Are lectures and books still required to gain specific knowledge of administration, such as health, education, defense, the economy? Or are all these details available to the student in the silence of his consciousness?

2. Maharishi: All these details are available in the consciousness of the expert. He thinks, and the thought is carried on to the target of thinking and produces the effect.

3. Two small boys, Luv and Kush created a miracle, they flattened an entire army. When their guru heard that, they told him, that they had not killed the army, only put them to sleep. They had such command of natural law that they could achieve their objective without harming anyone. They had this command of natural law because their awareness was a field of all possibilities. That is the awareness that is running the whole universe.

4. The natural impulse to expand from point to infinity is the nature of life. It is called evolution. By knowing it, one can make everything and everyone evolutionary all the time. Knowing it properly means being it, knowing by being.

5. Yatinam brahma bhavati sarathih. Someone who is a yati, who is completely retired from the field of dynamism, the Creator becomes his charioteer. It is the Creator who created creation from what He remembered about the past creation, from the memory. To put the memory to really thrive again is the act of the Creator.

6. Someone who is transcendental is on that level of the Creator, wherefrom he can create by thought. That is the awareness of the Raja; that is the awareness of the administrator. It is the competence that rules.

7. There is no mistake, and there is no punishment in this competent administration. By nature one does only right thing. There is a complete philosophy of perfection.

8. Normal life of man should be aham brahmasmmi, "I am totality." That means life in terms of total knowledge, in terms of capability of doing everything. That means everyone and everything will be on a level of satisfaction. There'll be no disappointments; there'll be no failures; there will be no wrongs anywhere in one's surrounding.

9. Here is an open challenge for everyone to be invincible on his individual level and on the level of the collective value of his individuality, which is cosmic.

a true guru is ubiquitous | Self Improvement Blog on Speakingtree.ina true guru is ubiquitous

based on my experiences with  my true external gurus

and true internal gurus , i found that

A true guru does very much belong to any class or caste.

A true visionary, guide or guru has many castes or creeds –

anek varg aur varan saancha guru soyee.

He is --not only--- a brahmin, kshatriya, vaishya or shudra.

He is --not only ---a Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh or Muslim.

He does belong to many groups or classes.

he is one who can lead the masses, whose gyan-dhyan (true wisdom and contemplation) flows towards the deserving---- in many different ways and means ---modes an moods, ---profiles and avathara, ---belonging to many classess, and grades

true guru is not one

but he is many of different grades, of different levels to teach students of different levels

from kg to pg to doctorate and more

not one lesson / one book can help all

not one guru is sufficient for all ages

and for all stages

for all colleges,

for all departments and compartments

hence he manifests as gurus and many gurus, thru paramparas

and schools, colleges, universities, spiritual centers ,

of every kind, in many contexts and pretexts, with new texts

this is the eternal teaching flowing and continues to flow in ever new ways,

now thru internet, ebooks, on line , desk tops, i pads, lap tops, mobile hones,

guru is creative, finds ways and means to reach all

at their level, at their homes, at their offices, at their work places

guru is ubiquitous , generous, pious, humorous, hilarious

never serious, never narrow, never limiting , always expanding,

he is a task master, not only just a blog master

Rishika Kapoor ji, focussing on issue raised here 1... there are many laws governing the universe , these are eternal, non changing, tamper proof, and universal, ie working nonstop ,day and night, every where, these are not man made, nor invented, yet unknown to beings and common humans except a few exceptionally wise human beings . these humans are rishis and they discovered these in their tapasya, ie in their internal exploration. they called these laws as ''devas'' while communicating their findings to laymen they took the help of a number of mediums like allegories, metaphors, icons, symbols, and wrote epics episodes scriptures poetry as a improvisation
