- Nrv Appasamy in reply to Rishi VasanthVasanth Sir - It is negating Japa -------------Ajapa Japa
Attempts has been made by practising shanmukhi mudra to keep external sounds at bay.
i.e Close your ears with the thumbs. Close your eyes with the index fingers and lips with the ring and little fingers. Take a deep breath in and then close your nostrils with the middle fingers.
While holding the breath inside, rotate your consciousness in the spinal column. With the vibrations of So descend from ajna to mooladhara, and with the vibrations of Ham ascend from mooladhara to ajna. Then release the breath. During this brief period of rest, practise self-awareness and mindfulness - Sreeram Manoj Kumar in reply to Rishi VasanthRishi sir there are times when even the deafening sound does not penentrate into your mind ........ even the loud thunder in the sky or the gushing waves in the ocean, rustling leaves in wind, roar of the lion, hissing of the serpent, cawing of crow, cooing of cuckoo, tweeting sound of birds, humming of bees will never make an impact to you i mean even YOU..... if you are confronted with the news of the death of the beloved. ........... It is all in the Mind .....Rishi sir ... i know you know it but like to pull my leg :) Enjoy pulling it :)
- Rishi Vasanth in reply to Sreeram Manoj Kuma..."Brahmachari shatha markataha"-----you know it
like to pull leg :) Enjoys pulling :) - Rishi VasanthBut,
we are on st, with a bit of tarka
i am presenting a different drushti kon,
my suggestion is , you answer it, do not get distracted, no ill is intention, but to refine the presentation , a semi cooked will cause indigestion .
let's take things to ultimate truth, as for as possible.
i am giving enough clues in my posts, so that you can spin your fabric convincingly, instead of remaining, leaving it kacha pakka
take time ponder over my posts reply every point with a little more logic and analysis - Rishi Vasanth in reply to Sreeram Manoj Kuma...'' even the deafening sound does not penentrate into your mind ........''
if so where is the need to ''just switch of the music system or I can lock myself inside a room or even go to a solitude place'' - Sreeram Manoj Kumar in reply to Rishi VasanthDear Rishi Sir that is when my mind is not obscured in the any other deep thoughts ......... i know you know it but like to pull my leg :) Enjoy pulling it :)
- Poonam Mehra in reply to Rishi VasanthI agree with u. When there is real silence, there is no need to switch off the music system .... etc. All external sounds can go on and yet nothing disturbs that INNER SILENCE .... it feels as though all is in harmony ....... nothing disturbs/distracts. It is only when we TRY to go into silence then all external sounds become disturbing/distracting!!!!!!!!
- Rishi Vasanth in reply to Niti LoraWe do not hear silence
though we really want to hear
in every talk we seek silence
yet the talker gives out more noise than silence - Rishi VasanthThoughts are no noise, thoughts do not sound, none can hear your thoughts, not even the whispher
- Sreeram Manoj Kumar in reply to Rishi VasanthMind can hear the thoughts Rishi Ji when the thoughts starts to make it unaudible for the mind the intencity is felt and our physical body feels like being suppressed ......i know you know it but like to pull my leg :) Enjoy pulling it :)
- Rishi VasanthThe sound of the heartbeat is--- not --Anahata, the unstuck sound.
heart beat is aahath, it is it is stuck sound, muscles doing the beat - Rishi VasanthTo here anahath “AUM” ------needs no extensive practice,
1 put your fingers in the ears , closing them to the external sound, you can here anahath aum, instantly, continuously, here there is no ahath, this is anahath naad
2 utter the letter ''o.........'' for a prolonged time, and at the end'' m'' of aum is heard, here too it is anahath - Rishi VasanthThere is no barrier between us and silence.
silence exists, prevails , regardless - Rishi VasanthWe always seek silence, not obsessed at all with sound .
sound provides a medium to experience silence so we take that help as it is necessary - Rishi Vasanth in reply to Rishi VasanthWe feel heroic by defeating silence-----there is no war we playing, silence cannot be destroyed by noise , silence is indefatigable , it is triumphant , since every noise is having a beginning and an entd, where as silence is a continuum , eternal, universal
- Rishi Vasanth''
Just as the light is perceived well in the pitch of darkness, ''---how can pitch of darkness helps in perceiving ligt well?
once light is put on where is pitch of darkness - Rishi VasanthThe silence is audible clearly if the sound is the divine music or mundane buzz,
since silence is there at the beginning, end and along with noise . - Rishi Vasanth''Silence is the most powerful way of communicating.''
------------then what is the need of this blogging and dialogging,
then we can be just silent
no need of any book?
then only white paper can reveal all the wisdom?
why audio /lectures, music, why a tongue at all, then where is the need of ears
so deaf , dumb are the most elevated teachers?
because they are experiencing silence life long?
I can not just switch off the thunder in the sky,
nor
the gushing noise of oceans waves
the rushing sound of the wild wind
the roar of the lion,
hissing of serpent,
cawing of crow
cooing of koel,
tweeting of birds,
humming of bees
