  unique and universal

every individual is a fresh rose, but of the same ancient rose plant

each is unique special individual, and each individual is the same man, 

common, with similar features, head, hands, legs 

nature is expert designer,

standardization and creative design going hand in hand

yatha poorve is manifesting de novo,

navo navo bhavathi 

but every new child born is with some higher evolution ,

still retaining the same standardized features of parents , of beings in general

And so

1 the tendency of any individual entity is to explore, to discover and display that uniqueness, that specialty in his appearance, in his performance, in his outputs, in his creations, and carve out a niche in the society in the universe for himself, for his unique specialty. thus great musicians, painters, philosophers have left their” signature” on their creations , the connoisseurs can identify such quality and say , yes, this is the product of that creator, like pandit ravishankar, ravivarma , osho etc 

also 

2 the tendency of any individual entity is to explore, to discover and display that universality, that ultimate commonality, that original common stuff, that common generality, beyond all the specialty , uniqueness, individual-specific, aspects, moving toward the unchanging feature of every thing in the creation , forgetting all the differing details , like the individual specific , unique stream reaching the common ocean, just the plain waters without, shape size, geo,time, qualitya   nd

3 significantly

the uniqueness attained, the specialty that is existing and displayed will become more and more profound in proportion to the success reached in exploring and discovering the one universal commonality underlying the manifested infinite specialties and uniquenesses

and such a individual expresses more and more universality in his specialty , his every unique creatio and 

4 much more vitally

the individuals out put , his creations, his works acquire value in proportion

to the degree of universality that he has brought out in his speciality

that is why we say for example, tagore is unique , he is a universal poet

also we say krishna is special, he has taught an all time universal message, gita

5 and ultimately, all specialty, uniqueness, individuality will vanish , and one attribute less universality is reached

So the trend of evolution is

from universality to specialty

from specialty to universality

and the cycle repeats

  bhagavan says

if you want to talk to me

in my office, meet me,

meet me direct

agents may misdirect

i am there seated in my office,

in the depth of your consciousness

meet me at my own level,

observing right protocol

go your inward track,

by any knack

open is my door,

i am there now , ever and before

my working hours, 

all twenty four, yours

for me no holiday

every day a holy day

i remain truly yours

for an early meeting of ours

  bhagavathi chethana---what, how, why, when

chethana=consciousness= awareness

life in unenlightened stage is lived in 3 states---

1. sleep--suptha chethana

2. dream--swapna chethana

3. waking--jagruth chethana

guru graces, he gets a glimpse of 

4.  the fourth state---transcendental--thuria- chethana--chathurtham 

the state of settled state of mind, momentary in the beginning, a deep silence

a passing first glimpse is the beginning of a true love story,

the mind falling for the love at first vision,

and craving to have the darshan, sparshan ,of man mohan, 

searching and waiting for the eternally charming absolute, 

a radha after shyam.. and shyam luring yet eluding, playing flute—-

it's a life long romance for a few, in their inner yaan,

an eternal inspiration for others to sing the glory of him

in bhajan, keerthan, gungaan, 

a worthy theme for few others, to create romantic poetry

weaving as web and warps, the transient reality and mystery

creating lokas and romantic characters in upakhyanas, udanthas.

here is the first level of the aspirant, 

most stay stuck here, eternally searching, having had the vision, 

and not knowing a sure way to move forward, compromising into thinking that their search it self as the goal ,

they are fortunate yet unfortunate..

sadhana continues, alternating silence and activity , nervous system gradually gets refined and retains the silence while in activity leading to

5.   the 5th state, cosmic --vishva chethana

experience is karma sukaushalam=easiness in business

petals of gnan sprout, gyana prasoonaamba blessing, identification of himself with the univesre as one

Human body is born with best of purity, perfection, yet, if you believe in rebirth, it has remnants of impurities---remnants of karma day to day done, like metal gets work hardened if bent and unbent a number of times ---it will be annealed to regain its original malleability ductility ---in the same way --this personality has to undergo repeated purification, for body we take bath --for mind ---for intellect some good book/lecture/satsng.---for feeling level ,fine arts, music dance, bhakthi on a istha devatha,---for yet deeper levels meditation etc are the ways

sadhna results in accelerated purification, thus we get evolution in to higher states, and mukthi will be faster. as the purification intensifies thru regularity of sadhana, the mind and nervous system retain awareness abundantly, stresses having been eliminated , individual becomes nicely refined and divine virtues., rather divinity descends in to him, so he becomes a personification of god like kishan, lakshmi, ram, --their features become his property --like prasanna vadanam,mandsmitha vadanaaravindam . no more he will be tossed up and down will be a calm deep ocean , though he is engaged in the most busy activities---essential to lead a eminently successful life, in every sense of the term

now the system is so pure, refined, mind gaining the subtles stastes 

with ease

6.   the 6th atate arrives, all devi devathas pleased and ready to come in to this purified temple----godly--bhagavathi chethana

He system becomes a transparent host to invite devi devathas.

he invokes siva, and all the characterisics and features qualities will be housing in him

if he invites vishnu . vishnu's qualities and so on

this is the state one is ready to aavahan the devathas.

spirituality can be much more easily understood with analogy of internet and computer.

our ista devatha is like our home page within it you can invite other websites

If googe is home page, within it you can browse yahoo,rediff etc 

if shiva is istha, thru him you can invite vishnu

so it is possible to enter shivlilok and from their within vishnulok, brahma lok, indralok.

basic rquiremet is the computer, our system, should be freed from clutter

there are 33 koti devi devathas--like several web sites--with their special characteristics, capabilities, mahimas, as extolled in astothara shatha,,sahasra naamas.

we take a gods name and a characteristic, and we invoke them in to ourselves, along with their special mahimas, life becomes a mahimaanvitham-- glorious.

just like we take a web site, we apply a theme , different themes being available.

google is not made by me but all the power and capability of google i command--since i connected to net and i invoked google--basic is my computer is very good latest model, highly evolved, pure from all virus and clutter. hard disc is having high capacity ram also is powerful large capacity.

similarly our system goes thru purification and expands capability to invite gods and their mahima.

all the knowledge of all gods --like wiki -- the samhitha--the collected --unified in the gods web sites can be accessed in that gods website

now e books 

so are gods knowledge opens inside.

so there is every need to do sadhana and evolve/update ourselves moment to moment with the cosmic evolution , need to be able to enjoy infinite possibility within the limited body mind complex--like a pc with its h/w and s/w and net, is able to scan the earth google earth, --is able to listen music, see dance, hear speeches.

so all the gungaan, naama vali, vedas, puranas, episodes, all the help, understanding are possible , virtually one can create his universe as beautiful and charming as a heaven by down loading heaven in to his system.

and like all web sites are waiting to welcome us to enjoy all their capability, all devi devathas are waiting to invite us to get downloaded on to our system,

if we do not avail google, what google will do 

it goes to one who invokes it

richo akshre parame vyoman yasmin deva adivishve nisheduhu 

yasthan naveda kim richa karishyathi?

so then what further?

it is the final or?

sadhana continues system becomes much more pure, all sanskars vasanas fully eliminated, mind experiencing abundance of awareness. is now ready to take off to the next ,the ultimate level ,

7.   7th state--unity—kaivalya chetana

as the pc having explored , having become familiar with all the sites, all lokas, having been further updated, and upgraded to much more powerful version now interacts with the site owners, lokaadhipathees, and they so pleased with this pc and its owner will be happy to invite him to their lokas and offer the seat just next to themselves making him the co-owner co- adhipathi

he integrates all lokas and adhipathees and joins the supreme who is governing the entire lokaas and adhipathees and pleased., he makes him the joint owner, the ruler . and gradually hands over his supreme seat having found him worthy and loves him so much that he mingles with him unites with his consciousness and the individual consciousness finally and permanently becomes the sole supreme ruler of the universe a jagannath, his command most lovingly obeyed by all the devidevathas.

and all the lokas just reveal to him as if a new bright light has lighted,.the paramjyothi

he is at will to to stay in the body system or stay as awareness unlimited by even the least limited by body.

and after living his life at his will he may drop his body, having served all and best purpose fully, , completing the longest journey from uncountable births and deaths and will stay as awareness governing the universe for ever

  spirituality is essentially a cleaning process for human

as if it is a metallurgy, from raw ore, to pig iron, to steel, to steel parts,

as if it is derusting, degreasing, polishing, honing,

and render the mind body absolutely in the fittest possible condition

for the best usage

so maintain it by schedule, routine, daily weekly, monthly cleaning processes

with all kinds of appropriate spiritual techniques and processes, including pooja, vratha, fasting,

  Music--such words as this make me sing limitless,

madhya  

but we have --mandra, taara sapthak as well-what for?

and then we also exceed to athi mandra, ati thaara sapthak -----not for nothing 

then we have one drone, shruthi box or thanpura ---mono tone ,as a back ground --is it monotony? Definitely not 

and then we have raagas------how many?

and we have nava rasas , and ragas to convey the rightly each rasa 

and moods vary seasonal
and with the movement of day into night 

where is the limit for music 

om the pranav naad fills the universe , unending continuum 

and music makes one to dance in exhilaration, 
makes one to move into melancholy tears rolling

where is it excess

if it does not do its intended purpose, by limiting itself, then where is the creativity in music where is the joy of nonchalance?

i am dwelling on the topic, -is it excess

can you put a limit?

if you stop me , you will miss me 
and my music, though i continue to flow nonstop at every opportunity 

so limiting is humiliating oneself, i am a bit harsh, 

no limit is my theme 
going to extremes is my sport

  

U unique and universal

one will become universal when one accesses one's self which is the universal core in every being , and there by one reaches out to the community around, society, state, country, humanity, all the living beings, even the inanimate, in divine love"
