purity clarity | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.in

purity clarity | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.inultimate Purity is the pure consciousness, which defines the dharma, the laws of nature governing the universe .

to get clarity on the laws of nature, and life in its totality, purity is essential ,

purity leads to clarity. 

unless purity is gained in the body mind system clarity will not dawn, confusion prevails , persists.

so

acquire the purity by experiencing the pure consciousness, 

and grow in purity day by day by repetitive experience of pure consciousness

as the purity grows in the system, clarity on life and its laws, grows, enabling us to lead our life in its light 

without mistakes and consequent suffering

the precise understanding of the subject is possible with expert master's guidance on theory and practice . 

lesser ones will be in confusion and cause confusion all around

writer is field | God And I Blog on Speakingtree.in

writer is field | God And I Blog on Speakingtree.inwriter is field ..
his work is particle..
field attracts particle ..
one's offspring is the most loved ..
he reviews
he nurtures,
he improves his output ,
like he brings up his children..,
wants them to shine in the world ,
not be destitutes rolling in the dust

పురుష ప్రతిభ

విశ్వం , ఇది ఒక దృశ్య కావ్యం

కల్పనా వాస్తవికలతో సమ్మోహనం
ఇది నవరస భరితం , సకల కళా శోభితం

ప్రతిసన్నివేశం నవ నవోన్మేశం
క్షణం క్షణం జీవితం ఉత్కన్ట్ట జనితం

నేపథ్యం అరణ్య నదీ నద పర్వత సాగరమయం
ఆకాశ సూర్య చంద్ర తారా మండలాలతో అలంకృతం

వైవిధ్య వైరుధ్య విపరీతాలతో రీతి సవ్యతల సఖ్యం
ఇదొక జీవ నిర్జీవ ప్రతిమా నాటకం పురుష ప్రతిభా పాటవం

ఇందులో నీవొక ప్రేక్షకుడవే కాదు ఒక పాత్ర ధారివి కూడా
దాని సూత్ర ధారివి కూడా

నీ ఈ పాత్ర అతనిదొక చిరు అవతారం
జగన్నాటక సూత్ర దారివిగా ఎదగడానికి నీకిచ్చిన సదవకాశం

the glory of supreme

universe is a visual poetic treat
a mix of visibles and invisibles, neat

full with 9 moods, bedecked with all arts
it is bewitching with fiction and facts

every scene ever a flow of novelty
moment to moment , suspence, a running commentary

back drop rich with jungles, rivers, rivulets, mountains, oceans
well beautified with sky sun moon stars galaxies

variety, contradictions ,odds in friendship with harmony and order
this is a drama with living and nonliving dolls, the glory of supreme designer

in this you are not only a spectator but also an actor,
and more its director

this your role is his a small incarnation
to enable you to grow into the stature of director of this drama of universe

accomplish, shine, win, and rule the universe
gradually, coolly, sweetly, blissfully

i like the bible, i like jesus

blessed are the meek, they inherit heaven,

truly he is the son of the father,
in his own form and qualities

let's read the bible scripted inside us directly by the father,

and let's grow ourselves to be much more than jesus,
much more in the qualities of father 

let's find our god and father , inside each one of us,
let's learn to read and write much more holier inside bibles 

 
the road is found, the door is open

God causes man to cheat, murder, pain others for | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.in

God causes man to cheat, murder, pain others for | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.inGod causes man to cheat, murder, pain others for god's own self motives and satisfactions.
 Who ever what ever good bad useless are due to god causing it to happen .
without his permission an ant cannot bite.

we help such persons who are helpless , only when god causes us to help , otherwise we simply be inactive.
helpless harmless animals are abused and pained by human, caused by god, to make them evolve to grow wise and strong and resist domination by environt around, in the next gen, they become born better 

human decides by self awakening conciousness to spare such helplesss harmless animals without giving them trauma---as soon as god directs him to do , immediately . other wise human looks other way

why god will not come and give justice to them immediate ?
because he wants them to undergo all the required lessons of suffering , so he will not interfere for a while 

it is a moral responsibility of god to enable help each other and even innocent harmless animals too , but he has his own ways to help which a human cannot understand, with usual wisdom

Supreme Justice God of Universe is final, he listens to all appeals from all the living creatures .
he is ruling the universe as per his constitution, if any one does a mistake , he will not excuse , but will punish him as per his penal code.

human being neither knows that constitution nor has ability to govern the universe better than god . such being the predicament , actions right and wrong will have the effects as per the constitution of the universe. so man can do nothing more than what his best sense tells him and has to reap the reward and punish accordingly in appropriate form

Complete surrender to god is the only solution for all problems .
he alone directs the whole activity of the universe from the the minutest level to the grossest .
none can comprehend his ways in totality , what ever one does , including standing on one leg or keeping head on earth

I have given the comprehensive response , read fully and understand them 
your asking the questions same again and again 

for the same questions, the same answers will repeat----waste excercise,
better put new questions, i can provide new answers

I like arrogance, i like arrogant persons, arrogant behavior | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.in

I like arrogance, i like arrogant persons, arrogant behavior | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.inI like arrogance , i like arrogant persons, arrogant behavior, arrogant treatment to me , 
i also know that it's god's play .

so i pretend being arrogant,
and pretend being soft and kind

-- and enjoy the reactions, seeing how vulnerable people are to praise and criticism.

very rarely i find a few who do take my true opinions honestly expressed . with them i am just truthful .

but to me all kinds of individuals are all likable, great god's children are they, irrespective of age edu etc , not to try to transform them , god is there as the best transformer to step up or step down their voltage levels
 





























i missed to say "I am arrogant."
the fact is, i am the most arrogant fellow in the world , it too is god's play

not to try to transform me by myself at all, 

when god is there as the best transformer to step up or step down my voltage levels, 

i do not force him nor pray him , i just allow him, to his likes and dislikes, 

in fact i permitted him to do what ever he wants to do with me 

or with the rest of the universe , 

knowing that he can think a little better than me

For a spiritual blog | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.in

For a spiritual blog | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.inFor a spiritual blog, are readership/viewership/responses really essential?

it is just a whisper between one and his self,
it is incidental if it is overheard.

it's not a shrieking call to be heard by all,
over a loudspeaker, in every street corner
needing to respond with bombarding praise 

it's enough that it's heard by one's god within 

can any one set limits to it on quality, quantity, frequency, mode, language, tone? 

if limits are set, will the hearts pour ever care to it?

is it written to please the audience, or to attract the customers,
is it a salesmanship to accomplish targets?
is it written for money to promote agenda with propaganda?

is it to gain name, fame, publicity, image, followers, fans?

quo vadis ?

meditation, Fantastic, this derusts the mind | Faith And Rituals Blog on Speakingtree.inmeditation,  Fantastic, this derusts the mind, 
makes me be up like that dog 
who suddenly got up and vibrated its body , 
getting rid of dust and dirt
fresh to embark on a hearty loud bark 
and a smart and quick run 
to find new worlds to conquer 
and rule as the sole emperor

so far | Wellness Blog on Speakingtree.in

so far | Wellness Blog on Speakingtree.inso far there is nothing about me.
not of any significance  what ever has been there, what ever has happened, is just ordinary, no out of the way just normal, and i do not draw conclusion nor do extrapolation so, what to write .to me spiritual is nothing, actual is important thing

need not add | Wellness Blog on Speakingtree.in

need not add | Wellness Blog on Speakingtree.inneed not add a word i felt after reading blogs .
tthe wisest thoughts already been said by a lot of st people already  

I do not think there is any one who can write absolutely fla | Wellness Blog on Speakingtree.in

I do not think there is any one who can write absolutely fla | Wellness Blog on Speakingtree.inI do not think there is any one who can write absolutely flawless comment or blog
.
updating is the process that goes on, we revise our views, be cause we get enlightened , 

refine our perceptions and apply update that is welcome rather than sticking to and justifying what ever wise/unwise one writes, and that is why delete edit buttons are meant and well thot
This is a dynamic process for one who understands what a intellectual debate is , on's half truths get refined and enable to see more and be a better human .

i believe that every blog must undergo editing and revision to absorb the feed back from readers and in the next edition it must shine with freshness.
i also witnessed in a few days, some one trying to boss over and commanding me as if his subordinate or paid servants for which fitting reply was given, and the score settled with mutual good will dawining at the end 

but the dialog that went on is of no interest to the readers hence i happened to delete and kept the purity of this sight
Some body out of ignorance or bias does not understand and is not willing to understand and starts abusive offences on the wrong perceived tho the writer did not intend

In such cases the wise simply quits not to argue and deletes all that unpleasant stuff.
always it is the maturity of one which sees the wisdom not to persue with adamants and quits silently and he is labeled as timid and hasty and senseless and he is ragged stripped taken to door to door to get spitted at , and none bothers at such quixotics 

so let us understand this and learn from experience , and improve our interaction , st is a temple we must strive its purity

I am one who delete ever comment ones it is replied read and debated and keep the electronic paper clean and comfortable to other viewers '
if some one feels my deletion is not right, i do not care i n such a case i will never come on their nblog
But this may seem is defeatist approach . but one's time one's priorities dictate one to participate or not , and not some one's objections.
so if i do not argue, that does not mean i am afraid , i avoid only to save mt time.
and how i use my time is my prergative , not influenced by love hate appreciation criticism
No one can stop others to comment . it is the choice of the viewrs and not the will and wish or command of the blogger

None has any right for imposing their instructions on others when st is there witnessing what is right. this is where i say i never get peppurturbed buy outsiders views , never i obey such self assumed bosses bossing over others 
one can see my comments get either deleted reposted refined compressed elaborated all as per my preferences not asper bosses directions . and i am not quitting like other disgusted souls who quitted by such adamant behabiour

let people judge???? no no no 
my conscience is the best judge , not x y z .
this called updated spiritualism in practice right at the st transactions ever fresh, ever refining , moment to moment .
so do not get flabbergasted at this, as i never get flabbergasted too .
and i a m not sure how many gramer mistakes spel mistakes happened in my flow and i do the delletion reposting or elimination as a healthy need
This where i say i will not take others suggestions on my style 
i am free i write now or tomorrow or after a month as per my choice not asper others expectations none here can command others .
my huerry or worry is my concern not others .
i do not dicatate others on their style
let them do what their wisdom guides and i do on my wisdom
I am not concerned on majority let them think earth is flat
i do not object .
love hate no concern 
my innerself is my guide i repeat 100 times.

what is ridiculous for one may be meticulous for other.
i take all ridiculous things as meticulous.

so i did fall sick many times,
i did get hurt in accident,
i did receive help
and i did help to unfortunates,as my habit,
it continues.
i keep uncluttered, un-fluttered for little or big .
no pain at words.
my concern my priorities ,
one need not feel if i do not respond
To me what is happening everywhere is no concern, my performance and the results i show is my concern to meet the best expectations of those who are giving me the salary. and i do it in the best possible way. the results and consequent career growth i see are the proof and guide to me. there are countless blogsites in the net with countless interesting interactive features. but within a day i am left with few minutes for these things, so i think that i have given sufficient time, and response







Help if you can, ask if you need money, those who have will spare, send him to nearest service organisation, there are countless such cases i encounter, i will not do any thing now, and i find a few good people are helping, as per their like. at appropriate time i may join

'''Being simple means being as it is , neglecting the influential affects of others'''' --including word/teach/preach

''Om Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu:
May Peace & Happiness Prevail

Amma has chosen some peace mantras for daily chanting by her devotees and disciples. One of those invocations is Om lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu. Although this mantra does not appear in any of the existent Veda sakhas [Vedic branches], it is an expression of the universal spirit that we find therein1. Let's take a look at what context it appears in and what meaning it carries. The sloka as a whole reads as follows:

svasti prajabhyam paripalayantham nyayeana margena mahim maheesah
gobrahmanebhya shubamsthu nityam lokah samastha sukhino bhavanthu

May there be well being to the people;
May the kings rule the earth along the right path;
May the cattle and the Brahmins have well being forever;
May all the beings in all the worlds become happy;
Peace, peace and peace be everywhere!

The sloka is an invocation for harmony and blessings for all of creation. In ancient days the social structure and form of government differed from ours in many ways, that is why we need not take the literal meaning of this sloka, but the essence.

For peace and harmony to prevail, the kings--i.e. the politicians and leaders--should have a healthy approach towards their subjects and govern according to principles of dharma. This, we sadly note, is very rare indeed in today's world where power and wealth seem to be the prime motivation for the ruling elite. Nevertheless, the ideal remains as it is, and as Amma's teachings are personally influencing countless politicians all over the world, there might yet be light at the end of the tunnel.

Brahmin is one who has either realised his oneness with Brahman, the Absolute, or one who has dedicted his life to the pursuit of that realization. Such selfless people are the enlightened thinkers who provide society with a healthy understanding of life. They give guidance to all sections of society, including the political leadership. A Brahmin can also mean a brilliant intellectual who is using his talents to selflessly serve society. Thus for a stable and bright society, it is essential that these Brahmins are healthy. The sage who gave voice to this mantra obviously does not assert Brahmin-hood as a hereditary vocation as found today.

There are many examples in history to demonstrate that Brahmin-hood is an inner quality not dependent on the social status that prevails upon one's birth. We need only to look back to the great sage Veda Vyasa, also known as Krishna Dvaipayana because he had a dark complexion and was born on an island. He was born to a fisherwoman but possessed one of the greatest minds of all times and is universally accepted as a great rishi. He codified the Vedas and composed original works that are famed all over the world for their exquisite spiritual content. Among them are popular works like the Mahabharata and Srimad Bhagavatam, as well as profound treatises on the Ultimate Reality like the Brahma Sutras. In spite of his humble origins, Sage Vyasa is one of the most revered among the plethora of India's spiritual giants.

Amma was born in a community of fisher folk. She was educated only up until the fourth standard and speaks only her mother tongue. Also, most striking of all, she has never studied the scriptures. Yet their wisdom flows from her lips unceasingly, rendering the most abstract truths in simple ways that most anyone can understand. Who would then deny Amma's Brahmin-hood? Amma is directing the world with her wisdom, speaking to large audiences throughout the world, even at the United Nations.

Now, one might wonder about the cattle in this prayer, saying to one's self: "What on earth have I, a city-dwelling modern person, to do with cattle? Shouldn't I rather be praying that my BMW stays in good condition?" We need not be too literal-minded. The ancients didn't use language in such a one-dimensional way as we do. If we contemplate deeply on the meaning of any given mantra, it is likely that it will reveal more and more layers of meaning. "Cattle" signifies nourishment and abundance in general. In ancient time cattle served as a sort of bank account. The number of cattle a person had was the measure of his wealth. Also, the milk was the primary source of livelihood for a large portion of society. Milk and milk products such as ghee comprised the majority of the offerings made into the sacrificial fires used in formal ritual worship. Thus cows are mentioned in many ancient texts as a symbol of plenty. It can be taken symbolically, like "the daily bread."

In today's society, such a prayer, if taken literally, has also a special irony, for cattle ranches around the world have become breeding grounds for diseases like the mad-cow epidemic. When cattle and the rest of the animal kingdom are devoid of well being, humanity will also suffer. Thus harmony between humans and the rest of creation is also stressed in this prayer. Actually cow can be taken as representative of the entire animal kingdom. The Sanskrit word for cattle is "go," which is a most profound Vedic symbol and has many subtle spiritual meanings. Two such secondary meanings are "earth" and "mother," and as such the sloka could also be a prayer for the welfare of Mother Earth. So we need not be worried that God will send a herd of cattle charging through our living room when we pray thus.

The most important aspect of the mantra is that the sage does not pray only for his clan or nation but for the whole world or, more precisely, all the worlds2. This, as Amma tells us and shows us, is the correct way to pray. Instead of asking for something for our self, Amma advises us to pray for the whole creation. Praying for the welfare of all sentient beings--all humans, all animals, all plants—our mind becomes more expansive. Through such prayer we slowly can go beyond our limited egocentric concepts of self to identify with the entire creation, recognising its true nature to be none other than our own. And as we too are part of the world, we also are benefited from the blessings of the prayer.

Amma's whole life is a constant endeavour to bring happiness to as many beings as possible. Her life verily is this prayer in action. She is showing us the correct attitude by which not only to pray but also by which to live.

While chanting Om lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu next time, let us try to feel deeply for all living beings, and make a resolve to live in this selfless spirit.

May peace and harmony prevail.
