Responsibility

 Responsibility

"To a person who is spiritually evolved, there is no question of taking responsibility, .

or evading or passing the buck ,even on to god, as he or she fully knows that all acts are done by God,

and since he has realized god, he knows that himself is that god and he or she.... is ... the doer, truly .. not just a vehicle for the divine.that exists some where unseen It is this teaching that Lord Krishna gave Ajruna on the battlefield, through the Bhagwad Geeta, that you are a non-doer, since you are doing in the state of nondoing, naishkarmyam, and hence you are fully responsible for what you do. , not krishna or some distant god,

This hold true for both the good and bad deeds that we do. We can never relinquish responsibility , since truly we are the god in the realized state so we must be utmost concerned on the results of our every action we should not ignore or be reckless on the consequences in the assumption that we are giving up doer-ship totally, god ' spirituality is not an escape route on the other hand, enlightened person grows to a level that he takes the responsibility for the smooth running of the whole universe one guru taught thishe in fact administered an oath for us all, it is we took an oath '' i am responsible for the whole universei am the matha pita bandhu sakha for the whole universe''his saying is ''if we take responsibility power comes to us''all spirituality is a training for living a totally responsible life , by realizing that one is himself is the god that is running the universe"

speaking tree –a rishi parishath?

speaking tree –a rishi parishath?

 

i 

 

cognized that every one is a rishi of some level, 

 

knowing an aspect of truth , partially, 

 

full truth known to highest level brahmarishi, who lives brahman.

my understanding of rishi includes, all beings which are conscious , though in ever small measure . 

 

thus all pranies are rishis

in the process of sharing cognitions among all rishis, the truth gets revealed in fuller and comprehensive manner.

so every one has a contribution to my knowing, 

 

so are all baba/yogi/godmen/guruand ordinary men

 

/ and animals/birds/insects.

so i thank every one with all respect ,keeping in mind their being a member of my infinite rishi parishath, the universe is, 

 

and revel in exchanging partial truths 

 

and getting back a fuller and fuller truth.

special thanks to reader , you a rishi, 

 

for sharing your point of view 

 

and my truth is enriched there by to that extent 

death why?……

 death why?……………… a tree lived for .3,500 years until it was burnt down

1 if deerghaayushya is possible, amruthathva also is possible as a corollary

jathasya maranam dhruvam …….need not be true always , can be defied
one need not die, death is not inevitable,

2 then how man dies??
man dies because, ”wages of sin is death ”
if sin not done, then death wont be

3 why / how sinning happens??
man sins due to ignorance

4 what is sin??
sin is to violate the swadharma, by own doing [ or others causing it, ] knowingly / unknowingly , manly due to not knowing how to be sinless, due to not knowing how to overcome the effect of sin, …paapa parihaara

5 why man remains ignorant??
he does not know the value of life,
so does not find ways and means to preserve/protect life of self and life of others
due to negligence, will fully or forcibly he yields to death

pradakshina is

 pradakshina is one of the ways to ”come back to home” to bring the out going awareness gradually to one’s nearness finally on to oneself to one’s own self , the enabling atma to reach paramathma inside

by gradually closing down the infinite ways/ options for awareness to go after and fritter away the energies/ time
1 man by entering into temple, he has come away from the market place of life-activities
2 distance is reduced, from miles to a few yards
3 straight travel is reduced to circular
4 direction is set ie dakshina , clock wise
5 number is set , 5 , or 11, or, or 21, or 108
so that mind is engaged in counting the number
6 speed is set, no hurry , no stopping, but uniform speed
7 vision ‘ eyes is not going out towards see any number of objects or scenes outside
8 attention is on the walk,
9 at each step, one is made to see the one’s mind thoughts, body moves,
10 variety is reduced, one circle is enough to know every thing on how the walk is, it is just routine, vairagya sets in
11 next circle, man is looking for some thing unknown, vairagya increases
11 each subsequent circle man is going away and away from samsara and becoming loner and loner
12 at the end of the set number of circles, what he found is ”nothing” …”all this is nothing ”..and now man is totally new , fresh in the mind, relaxed in the body, clear in thoughts, ready to jump into activity with superior wisdom , enhanced energy , as if got charged , the time spent in pradakshina is just in the company of himself, which is so precious, ..for one’s own discoveries
13 this is like writing rama koti, or nama smarana, chanting manthras …………..these are subtler processes , but pradakshina is a grosser process, , simple any ne can just do and get the taste of a different world, superior lokas , an opportunity to have just a peep even for a beginner
