COSMOS Vs DIVINE

         COSMOS     Vs     DIVINE
        =====================
VEDANTA   FOR   21st  CENTURY    INTELLECTUAL    INDIANS  ( home or abroad )
_________________________________________________________________________

(  Based  on   SHVETASHVATARA    UPANISHAD    OF    VEDANTA).

7    PRINCIPLES :
=============

I .   The   Effect  can  never  be  the   FIRST  CAUSE  but  can  be  the  CAUSE  of    furthers
        Effects.

      What  is  the   Cause  of   COSMOS  ?(  No  manifestation  in  NATURE    can  be  the  First
      Cause   as  they  are  but  subsequent  Events .)

   The  DIVINE or    First Cause  Rule(s)  over   TIME ,  SPACE  and  Causation.

II .  On the   ever  revolving  Wheel  of ' Beings' , the  individual  self  goes  round  and  round
       through  Life  after  Life  believing  itself  to  be     separate  Creature  ( cf ; Ashtavakra  Sanhita  ).

     Conscious   Spirit  and  Unconscious  matter ;  both  have   existed  since  the  Dawn   of  TIME  .

III. Avoid  identifying  yourself  with  the  body.

      Know   DIVINE  to  be  the  First  Cause   and  root -  cause  of  all  subsequent  effect  or  events .
     Really  ,there  is  nothing  more  to  be  known

     Bring  both  your  Mind  and  Breath  under  your Control
     (  Be  seated  with  your  spine  erect ).

IV . Divine was  before  Creation   and  will  be  after  Dissolution,
      And  Divine   project  the    COSMOS   from  the    Divine's  SELF  --Maintains  and  Withdraws
      back  into   the  divine , (* like  spider  casting  its  net  ).

    ' THAT  ' is the  collective  SPIRIT  of  all  that  is  alive  in  any  form , any  where  and  ever.

       সর্বত:পানিপাদং তৎ  সর্বতোঅ ক্ষিশিররো  মুখম   ।
       সর্বত ;  শ্রুতিমল্লোকে     সর্বমাবৃত্য   তিষ্ঠতি  ।।
                            --- গীতা  :   ১৩  /১৪
V . Divine  know (s)  everything  and everyone  but  no  one    can  know   Divine or  ever shall
      know.

      In Divine  the  whole  Universe  is  smaller  than  the  smallest  atom  and  far  beyond  the  reach
      of  Mind .
VI . Not  female --  Male   nor   Neuter    is  the  Divine .
VII.  EVOLUTION  IS  BUT  DIVINE's  OWN  LAW .
        Divine is  Pure Consciousness, Omnipresent, Omnipotent , Omniscient.
        Also   the  Creator  of  TIME , Master  of 3  'Guna-s'  and Evolution takes  place  at   Divine's
       Command .
       HE IS  THE  CAUSE    WITHOUT  CAUSE  AND  WE   ARE  BUT      INNUMERABLE
        INSTRUMENTS   OF  THE   DIVINE.

There   would   not  be  logo-s   like  ' God , or  Allah  or  Shiva '  unless   there was  Evolved  Conscious  Humanity to   talk  or  express .
Or , unless  the  divine  manifested  in    life  as  Humanity    to   let  os  know  and  talk  about  '

Q  Why  some  people  are  born  lucky  and  others always  suffer ?

Q:  But  I  don't  understand !

DIALECTIC SPIRITUALITY V , VI , VI and VIII

Sunday, November 25, 2012

SPIRITUAL  DIALECTIC  --V
=======================
Q  ;   Why  Science  can't
A =  Science  is   analysis  of  Objective  Universe  and  God  is  not  Object  but  Subject  itself  or  Know-er  of  everything including  your  knowledge. What  Scientists  know  is  God's  knowledge ( Consciouness)  through
 them.
Q :  How  is  it  ?
A =  The  Super-Science of   Knower --knowledge--way of  knowing( GEETA )  ; a  different   way  known  as   Spiritual  Science  or  Rajo-yoga ( of   Vedanta ).
Q=  But  your  Religion  has  too many  gods ?
A ==  No  problem !  USA-President  has  so many  Secretaries. and  even a  Vice-President !
Q = But  our  President  is  one.
A=  So is  our supreme  Iswara -the  'PURUSHOTTOMO ' or  the  ABSOLUTE  or  Scientists'  Grand Designer. And  your  President  is  replaceable  by  Votes  every 4 years  and  our   Absolute  is  ever  permanent .
Q  then  who  are  those  other  gods ?
A =  Like  those of  your  Secretary of  state or  defense  etc .
Q  But  your Religion is  "Polytheistic " ?
A=  Who gave  you that  wrong  information !  Our  Religion is  not  Polytheistic  but  Pantheistic  or  Absolute  Monism .
Q :  What is  that  ?
A = Only  GOD  EXIST  and and  everything  else   is  divine's  expression in  myriad  forms in fraction. We  are  all  within   GOD; even prophets , me , you  , Nature, nature , tree  fruit , river, cloud  , Sky.
In  short  everything  is  the  DIVINE and  GOD  within everything e.g   grains of  sand -microbes -insects  unto  man .  Also   all ' outside us ' is  but within  God . In short  there  is  only ONE  and that one is  DIVINE  or FIRST  CAUSE  and  everything  else is  'Fractions 'or  Decimals   not  integers. 

SPIRITUAL  DIALECTICS --VI
========================
Q :  what  about  te  Sinners  and  enemies ?
A=  They  are  also our Genetically  elected  relations .  villains of  Shakespeare's  pla  are  also  products  of  Shakespeatr and  without them  the PLAY  would  be  a 'Flop'.
Q  ;  What  about  tour  faith  in  other  Religions  ?
A = All  Religionns  are true  in their  essence and  to  begin with and  evolved  on the  basis  of ime, geography , ethnic  and  socio-economic  conditions,
Paths  may  be different  but Goal  was the  sane  i.e  to   find  out the  hidung  FATHER..And  the logos  differed  too, conditionally  bound .
Q  How can the  GOD  of  different  Religions  be the  same ?
A=  How you be, the same one  be  a brothr , a hather  , a uncle , a lover , a  husband and a friend/ Or even be  a  the  boss to  one  and also a subordinate  to another . How  can the  same  father be a 'papa' to one  or  dad'  to  another . Variations  are not  false  but  beauty of  joy.
Also  learn  more  by  division and  finally  enjoy through  UNITY.
Q  :  Where  from  you  got  your  ideas  ?
A ==Drom  our  gages  of 5 to  7  millenium   old  on time -scale  and who  REAL-ized  :

"  EKOM  SOT  BIPRS   BOHUDHAA   BODONTI" (  Pre-axial  SANSKRIT ) !
Translitration:
 ' TRUTH  IS  ONE  AND  THE  SAME  and   SAGES  TELL  IT   IN   DIFFERENT  WAYS ( or through  Symbolism  ).'
Q:  Current  Name of  Vedantic Sanaton  Dharma , A post  Bhrhaminism of  Shakarachaarya. In reality ,' HINDU'  word is really a  mutation  effect  of SINDHU -Civilisation  , distorted  by  Persian-Invaders'  Vocal  'SLANG'. Though  a  geographical   identtification,  it  is  , even affected  the  Religion  too.
Q :  How  old  it  is  this  RELIGION  ?
A =  I Think , it is  older  than  all  World  Religions , though  it  has  under gone  lot of  mix-up over  milleniums  and  finally  inder gone  changes  by  PURANIK  INFLUENCES and  Historical infiltrations . Of course , I  am  no  scholar  in this  aspect of  Science  of  Religion . For hat  you  better   find  Scholars  more  informed  than me .I  have  no  pride  in my  informative  Scholarship.
(Contd ;  P 6 of  8)

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2012

SPIRITUAL  DIALECTIC --VII
=====================
Q:  Should  there  be only  one Religion  in the  world  ?
A =  Should there  be only  one  variety  of  flower  in a  Flower-Garden ?
Q ;  But  what  about  Ritualism ?
A = Ritualism  is  an  integral  part of   any  DEVOTIONAL practice. Even  the best  violinist has  to practice  a certain  poise or  posture   for  best performance .  Not  only in  religion  but  even in  SPORTS and  Scientific   Re-search  certain regular poise & practices  are essential . Only  UN-necessary  and  UN-explained  or  irrational  habits  may be  labelled  as  bad  ritualism .
Q :  Do  you  believe in  Idols  and  images.
A = Yes  and  No!. Any thing  that  helps in  spiritual  growth  and  ascent  is  good. The  photo  of  your  parents  in  your  Drawing  room ; is it an   Idol  ?  what is  your  opinion ?  Or  your  child's  wooden Play- horse ; is it  an idol or  should it be  discarded /  or the  cross symbol  of  a  good  Christian  ;  that  too an  idol ?
Q "  Do  you  believe  in  Re-birth  or  re-incarnation ?
A =  Yes  !  Do  you not  believe in Re-cycling  ?
Q :  Why  Hindus have  so many  gods ?A =  Hindus  have  not only so many  gods  but  to  a good  Hindu  every thing  is  divine  and  with  god within . Even  your  cosmos  is  within the  SUPREME  GOD  , --the  ABSOLUTE  or  GRAND  DESIGNER.
Of course  we  have  smaller  gods  or AVATARS  like  your  Christ , like  Mohammad, like  Rama . To  Us  GOD  &  gods  are  different  Logos . Like  your  GOD and  Jesus - are  Father&  Son ,  we have our  Purushottama &  and lower  gods  of  different  ranks and files .
To  a  good  SANATANIST  ( mutated  term -Hindu), every thing is  Divine's  expression  , -from  stone stone  to  trees  to  microbes  to insects to  animals  to  final  animal i.e the  conscious or  super-conscious  MAN.
Our  religion  is  not even  MONISTIC  but Absolute  MONISM  i.e  GOD  &  Matter &  living  world  is  not  different  entity(  DUALISTIC  IDEA )but  UNITARY  ONE.  Or  in another way  GOD is the  one  and  everything  else are  only  part  within  or  Fractions  or  DECIMALS. There  are only two integers  One  and Zero.All  others are fractions only !
Absolute  Monism  should  mean :  everything is  DIVINE  and within that DIVINE  is  --i you , Hindu, Muslim , Christian , Jews  , all living  beings  and non living  logos  and  even our  Universe  and Cosmos  !

SPIRITUAL   DIALECTIC  --VIII
=====================
Q  Then  why people of   different  religions  fight among  themselves /
A=Because  religions  are  most  often,  less  followed  for  God -seeking  but  more  EXPLOITED  for  Social-political  or  ethnic / economic  purposes or  commercial or political  power-game.
History  will  tell  you that  there  are  even  more FIGHTS  between  different  sects  of  same  religion.
 And  throughout  HISTORY  more  blood  has  been  shed   in such  religious  battles  than  TWO  WORLD-WARS .
Q :  Who  does GOD  then  allow it ?
A  +  The  Universe  or  Cosmos  is  a  PLAY- FIELD  of  Lonely  GOD  and  maybe,  God  enjoys   the  quarrel and  child-play  among his  'CHILDREN'.
 Modern  COSMOLOGY   ADMITS that  even   all   games  in the  field  of  RELATIVITY ( EINSTEIN) , may  be  some  Mirage-  DISPLAY  of   four Dimensional   GAME  on MULTIDIMENSIONAL   COSMIC SCREEN ; like   your  enjoying  a  Hollywood  Battle-  scene on  TWO-DIMENSIONAL  TV  SCREEN !
Q :  You  said   GOD is  not in Heaven ?
A =  I said  that I  believe  :  God is  not  only in Heaven but  everywhere  and in Everything  because  , for me , even  heaven and  COSMOS  has  to be  within GOD .
Q :  What  is  meant  by  "  My father  who is  in  Heaven " ?
A =  As  much  as  it  means  --" I and  my  Father  are  ONE" !
Q ;  But  we are  not GOD !?
A =  No ! But  we can be his  good  children .
 Q  Means  GOD  has  bad  children  too ?
A =  Why not  ?  Have not you  seen   any yet ? ?

UN - MASKED FACE OF THE UNIVERSE : by Hiranmoy Gautom.

Saturday, December 8, 2012

UN-MASKED   FACE   OF   THE  UNIVERSE:
( Based  on ' Jogavashhishtho '( Vedantic Darshan ) and  Cosmology .

1. The coarsest  expression  of the  MIND  is  the  UNIVERSE  while  the  subtlest  manifestation  of  the
     Universe  is  Mind  itself.
2.  As  we  grow, develop an evolve ,-- our  vision  changes, while  the World  remains the  same.
    The  intense  love  for  our  toys  in  childhood , --where  is  it  now  !
3 So  long  you  have  aggressive  faith  in the  IDEA  of  good  and  bad, - you  are   bound  by  Human-
   condition . The  filth  and  faeces  that  you  hate  so  much  is  life- giving  food  to   billions of  germs  and
   worms .
4. All  Ritualistic  practices  that    is  not  acceptable to   our  power  of  discrimination,  are  blind  habits .
5.So  long  our  Mind  exists, no body , not even saints,   can  deny  this physical  world .Yet  , the  quality
   of  Mind with its  relative  predominance of ( sottwo,  rojo  and  tomo) will decide  our  view of  this
   World .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Phonetic  spelling  for  Oriental  words .
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6 .  Consciousness  is  the  only  reality  in  Existence.  Meditation  of   RAJA-JOGA  is   the  Spiritual
      Science  to know  and  Experience  DIVINE  directly  , like  Modern Science  for  Mutable  Universe
      but  only and   if  born  with  PRARABDHO (or predestined )and  like  Mutable Genetic  Science)
.
7.Rituals  and   Devotional  Practices  are  good as  they  help  upward - ascent  but  only  up to  certain level.
  One  has  to  transcend  to  next  higher  level,  like one needs  to  be  promoted to  College -level  after
  passing  School -exams . Progress  is  a  ever climbing  journey. No one likes to be in the  same
  Class/grade  forever.
8 . Like  the  infinite number  of  photons even in  the Sun's  single  ray,-there are  infinite number  of
   Universes  and  Objective  Science has  only  started  to  realize    it  now
9. Unless  we  can overcome  our Ego and Mind , no  number of ritualism or ' Japa-s'  can  help  us  , unless
    with  ' Prarabdha' (Predestination) in- built .
10.Attainment  does not  depend on  length  of  practices  or  volume  of  Wealth  in life . Our  Quality  of
     faith  and  way  of  living  will  decide  it . 

 Saturday, December 8, 2012

UN-MASKED  FACE   OF  THE      UNIVERSE ;
   SPIRITUALITY  &  COSMOLOGY
11,  Names  and  forms  are  only  identification  in  division  to  understand  the ONE( only ). Gold-ring  and  gold - coin  are  Gold  only.
12.Mind  has  no  shape  nor  form. The  knowledge of  matter  and  it's  quality  is  Mind  itself .
13.Subject- Object-  phenomena  is  the  manifestation  of the  UNIVERSE. Purushottomo - Consciousness  is the  only  Subject .  Objects(  we all )   can never  be  the   observer( author  of  observation ),  we  , all ,  observe  with  borrowed  consciousness from  DIVINE. No  one  can  see their  own  eyes  without  mirror  or  reflection .
14. OM  is  Root - Cosmic  vibration (  finer  than even,  Planck's  Unit ).The  modern  science  is  closer  to it   with ' Vibrating  STRING '. Everything  from  Diamond  to  dust  from Galaxies  to  garbage may  be the  variable  product  of 'STRING-Vibration '. It  is  like  the  same  Cotton -string that  makes  a cushion or a  pillow  or  Quilt or a  cloth .
15.Satto - Rojo -Tomo  are the  Tri-vibration ( in  frequency )  of  COSMIC -MIND  MAHAT. It  may be like  EMF  - vibrating  frequency  producing    Magnetism  to visual  to  infra-red  to  Radio-frequency .All  living  being  from  best  Man  to  beast  have  all  these  3 ' Guna-s ',  in  variable  proportion  depending  on the  quality  of Life.
Even  the  Saints  have their  Urinary  bladder and rectum  along  with  their  Hearts.
16 .All  forms  of  Material -life in this  Universe   or  else  where, are  only  atoms of  Electro-Magnetic field -play ;  particle  display  on --Dimrnsional  Cosmic Screen  or  Space .The  remote  control  is    Divines -design  through  Nature. It  may  be  compared  with  2-D  'STAR-WAR'  on  TV  in your  Bed-room .
17.Until  we can  convert  our  Gross  mind  into  expanding  Cosmic  mind ,  we can not  transcend  the  state  of  Duality , however  we   explain  it  through  our  Intelligence .
18. On the  3rd  day  of  our  Death  we  rise  from  our  slumber ( Ressurection) and know  we  are  dead .
And  our  perceptual  power  multiplies  7 -times .
Then   we  suffer  or  enjoy  on the  basis  of our  Past-life  experiences ;  desires and performances in past life. We  are  sad  and weep  if  we were  more  attached . Or  we  feel more  elated  and  liberated  if  were more  spiriuual.
19 .  Neither  Heaven  nor  Hell  exists  outside our  own Mental Sphere . They  are  not  Physical  -Space  but  only  Fields  of   vibrating  Wave-length. like  Multiple  Channels  on our TV- screen.
20 .  Extroverted and  Material Mind , even if one  was  highly Skilled  and  wealthy   is  not  conditioned  for
Spiritual  life .

UN-MASKED   FACE   OF   OF   UNIVERSE :
(  COSMOLOGY   & SCIENCE  )
21.The  closest  expression  of  Mind is  the  Universe  and the  subtlest  form of  Universe  is  Mind  itself .
22. Unless we  are  changed  from  within  we can not  see the  changes  outside.
23.So long  we    have  fixed  ideas  of  'good  and  bad ' we can not  transcend  Bound -Condition of  Human life  and sufferings. Gold , the  filth  and  faecces  have the  same value  at higher  Cosmic  level.
24.Ritualistic  practices not supported  by discriminatory  power  are  blind  habits  only.
25  So long  our  lower ego and  base mind  is  not uplifted  we   can  not  know the  real meaning  of  Life  and  Universe .
26.Consciousness  is the only  reality; and   of  Contemplation  and  Meditation the  only  way  to  evolve.
27  Ritualistic  practices are  essential  up  to  certain level   but   is not   ' the  must'   for  one  with  higher  potential or Genetic  gift .
28.Like  infinite  number  of  photons in  Sun-shine , there  are  infinite number of  Universes and  planetary lives .
29.Unless  we  look  inward  and  try  to  know  our  'self', no number  of  'Japa-s'  or  ritualism can  lead
us  lead  us to the Divine .
30 . There  are  Heavens but  not as   physical  SPACE  but  in  our  mental Sphere ( immutable  state ). Heavens  are  of  many  types  and  even  Heavens  might have ' Down-town'  too , - like  down-town in  New York  or  Washington  D.C. All heavens   are  not  desirable  on   spiritual  level.

UN-MASKED  FACE   OF   THE   UNIVERSE :  IV
(  COSMOLOGY  +   SPIRITUALITY )
31.Once  we  are  free  from  Egoistic  feeling or  sensual  or  possessive  desires,  we  neither  need   action or in-action;  neither  ritualistic practices  nor religious  efforts.
32. the  same  Ocean  has  all  different species of  fish. Though  it  is  One  Cosmic  Consciousness , different  men have  different  genetic  potential  or  capacities
SreeRamakrishna  told it in the  best  way ; - '  a two liter  pot  can not  hold  4 liter  milk'. Spiritual growth  means  , --our  capacity   for  expanding  consciousness -awareness - potentiality .
33.Whatever  we  see  or  feel,  are  only  the  play  of  our  vibrating  electrons  on  our sensory organs .
34. Never  ask  for  anything  from  anybody not  even from   GOD ( except for love ). That  is  the easiest  way  for  spiritual  growth .
35. If  a GURU can liberate  anybody( even an  UN -worthy  disciple ) , then  he can even  liberate  a Camel or a Cow.
36. Examine  your  own-self  with  your  Consciousness;  the  best  way  to  separate  the  self  from the  physical  body.
37. what  we  think  External  or  outside  is  , in reality ,  not  external  but  reflective  condition  of  mind.
38.  Time, whether  limited or  UN--limited, is  a  concept  only . Modern  Science  holds  the  same  view .
Space-time,Relativity  of  Time , Imaginary  Time  are  all measuring  device of  our Mind  only.
39 . Mind is the  connecting  link  between   Objective  world  and Consciousness
40. So  long  we have  desire  , whether  we work or not, we  are  in  action. witness- attitude  is the  best  state  of Contemplative Mind .

UN-MASKED   FACE   OF   THE   UNIVERSE :
( COSMOLOGY   Vs  SPIRITUALITY  )
41. Life  has  to pass through millions  of  Births i.e  from plants  to  Microbes, to  insect , to animals to  human  form.
42. Thoughts  and inherited habits  are  held  up  in  mental  field, like  clouds  floating on a monsoon-sky. When  clouds  recedes , the  blue sky  reveals  itself. ; when  greed , material desires , possessions  recedes  from  mind, -  peace  naturally  settles within .
43.  Sorrow  and  happiness  are state  of ignorant  Mind. It is deeply  related to  our material  desire ,  depth of  attachments. and  our  failure  to  fulfill them. If  desire is  high and achievement falls  short , --grief  and frustrations  follow.
44.For  real  Spiritual  realization  we  neither  need  idols  nor  rituals.
45.What  we  call waste  or  filth  are  also  food  to  certain  types of living  beings .
46 . The  two supreme  paths  of  Realization of ABSOLUTE  are :   I ) Saankhyo  and  II.  Yoga ( Meditation).
47. Our  mind  vibrates  with matter  to create a condition  called  desire and  involves  our Ego  to possess it
48.Wave is  not  separate  from  water  itself .Heat is  not separate  from  fire.Milk is  not  separate  from  its  whiteness.  The same  way , -- The  Universe  is  not  separate from  Brahman .
49. Mind is  nothing  but  our Soul  trapped in  Vibration  of  MAHAT   in it's  three wave lengths  or,   Satto , Rajo , Tamo or  three  frequencies  of  Cosmic  Vibration of  life -Principle.( They are  finer  than  Planck's Unit )
50.Attainment  of  Worldly  , social , political  or  super-human power  have  nothing  to  do  with  Spiritual  attainment  or  Growth .

UN-MASKED   FACE   OF   THE   UNIVERSE
(  SPIRITUAL  SCIENCE  PLUS   COSMOLOGY  )
51 . PURUSHA  and;  PRAKRITI ( DIVINE  and;  NATURE ) is the  differentiated expression  of  the  First Cause  or  ABSOLUTE  or Grand  DESIGNER .
52 . Trillions of  waves that  rise  over  on  the  Ocean are  but  ONE  water  Mass  only in  multiple  form  on  TIME  & SPACE,
53. The  abstract  Expression of the  BRAHMAN  along  with  Three-Vibrations  from MAHAT( Supreme  NATURE )  manifest  on mutable  field  or  COSMOS  through the  energy  of  'Cosmic  Egg'  called  Hiranya - Garva .
54. Ignorance  is the  base line  of  Knowledge too( not  total  absence) . Darkness is  nothing  but  degraded  or  lower  intensity  of Light.. As  knowledge  increases ,  ignorance recedes  just as  light increases , darkness  recedes .
55 . Our ' I -ness '( ego) never  dies. When , after Death , we take up  another  body , we  impart  our  I-ness  to that  new  body .
56,The  Universe  is  a  mere  projection of  Cosmic Consciousness on the  4 -dimensional  Screen  of  the  Cosmos  and revealed  with 5th  dimensional EMF -play ; just  as the   show  on our  two  Dimensional  TV-screen  with play of  light.
57 . Praying  to  the  Divine  for  self  or  Family  is  another  form  of  Business or commercial  deal  with Divine !
58.Our  body  , however  well-fed  or kept  has  to  be  discarded in the  end . Only  our  Conscious-awareness  and the  quality  of our  thoughts  and action will  be carried over  to next life or liberation .
59. There  is  deep  Happiness  and  Peace  when our aggressive  ego  and  material  desire are  overcome by  our  higher  Mind  and  soul .
60. After ' DEATH' , our  Causal body  leaves our physical  body. This   condition is  defined  as  Death . But our  Soul  or real Life  again ,- starts   from there  with ' Promotion '  or ' Demotion', --according  to  our  performance  in earlier  Life .

UN-MASKED   FACE   OF   THE  UNIVERSE ---VII
(  COSMOLOGY  +  SPIRITUAL  SCIENCE  )
61.  Even  for  liberation  or  spiritual  freedom,  we need  some   requisite  measure  of  of safeguard  security  or  Base-line   wealth    (Inherited/ accumulated   or indirect ). Never  should  we  think  of  ourselves  as the  owner  of  Wealth  but  only  as  a  trustee  for  doing  Divines's  work allotted  to us .Basic  financial  Security  may be a  necessity . Even  Space  Ship  n Cape -Kennedy  need  a   Solid  base to  take  off.
62.  Neither  our  relatives  nor  our friends  will be  our companion  in our   next  life.
63 The  Consciousness ,  the  cause of  our life , mind  and  psychic health is   not  our  creation  nor  can  we  destroy it  ourselves .
64.  SUICIDE  is the  FOOL's  idea  of  escaping  from  Life''s burden  and suffering . After  suicide one  suffers  more   than   what  we  were  suffering before and  also  do  suffer  more  in next  life.
65 . Those  who  abuse   their  Spiritual  power  for Name -Fame  or  influencing  others, only lose their spiritual  power  suddenly  or  gradually. All magicians, otherwise,   know  that  their Magic-power  is  only  a trick.
66 . For  spiritual   growth , we need not  torture  our  body  nor mind.
67.Desire is the drive-force  for  all  Vital works  and  success. By  controlling   our  desire  , we can  control  al our  vital  needs.
68. We  might  have  read  all  the  books  of  a  Library and yet  remain  quite  ignorant  of  ideal  living . The granite  stone  bathing in water  does not  become  moist  within, ever .
69.After  all  success  in  spiritual  growth  our  Ego  remains  our  last  hurdle  or  worst  enemy .
70 . What  is  the  value  of  Renunciation  if  we  have not  renounced  our  ignorance , -our  worst  possession !

UN-MASKED   FACE   OF   THE   UNIVERSE
( SPIRITUAL  SCIENCE  & COSMOLOGY )
71. After the Great  dissolution of MAhaakaal  (  COSMIC  CYCLE  ) or ' KALPA', all  Matter   dissolve into Potential  energy  and   only  the  CONSCIOUSNESS  of   Para-BRAHMAN  will remain,
72 . all  sufferings  and  sorrows ,  all   perceptions  are  born  out  of  the  disturbed  waves  of Mind.
73.  As  the  Sages   have  no  material   attachments, the  question of controlling  them  does  not  arise  in their  life.
74 .  Sense  from the  Ego  is  the  Father  of  Mind .
75 . Cosmic Consciousness    comes  from the ABSOLUTE . From  Cosmic  Consciousness  comes out the Cosmic  Mind  or 'Mohot' which   is the  generator  of  Cosmic - Egg or  Hiranya  -GArva  or  Mutable  COSMOS .
76. Once  you  have attachment  to  any  material  object or  field, you will , always , be  bound  to it  even  beyond  your  death . and  carry  it  unto  your  next life .
77.Once  you  base  your  life  on good  Spiritual  Foundation ,your  next  life  will  be  carried  over  from there.
78 . Whether  you  desire or  not , we can not  live  even a  moment  without  some  sort  of  work, be  it  mental  or  physical .But  work done  without   attachment , has  no  negative  influence.
79. As water current  makes  the whirl, as moisture in atmosphere  makes the  cloud, the  Cosmic  mind  get condensed in us  to  make  our  mind.
80 . Cosmic  Mind  that  pervades the 5  sheaths of  our  body  , make  our  existence alive , while  pure  Consciousness is   the  expression of  our Soul .

 81. .  Our  ignorant  mind getting entangled  in Material  world  glorify  the  works  of  Vital  World.
82. Rationally  there is  no  difference  between  Soul and mind . Mind is the  degraded  or  Earthly  part  of  our  soul  which , like  distilled Water , is the  purest  extract  of Mind too .  Soul is like  the cleanest piece of cloth and when   it  gets  soiled up in material use  , it may   turn up  to be  our mind.
83 .   Meditation is the  normal waking  state  of  a  Yogi.
84 . Once  we  are  spiritually  awakened , we grow  less interested  in  material  enjoyment.
85. Without Spiritual awakening ,  all  rituals  and  devotional practices  are  vain  efforts .
86. All  sensory  or  vital  objects  originate  in  consciousness  by the  reflection of the  Mind.
87. A realized  person   never  feels   lonely , even if he lives  alone. Even  in  action , --he  does not feel  involved  or  while  talking  , does not  lose  his  inner  silence. He  does  not desire  what is not  easily offered  to him. He is  not disturbed in  distress  nor is  elated  in pleasure.
88 . To  spiritually  elite ,  the  perceptual  Universe  is  nothing  but  a  TV -serial  play  or  Leela  of  Brahman .
89.  All  seven heavens  are the  created  Wave -lengths   within  our  Mind/ psychae / soul  Complex and according  to  our  own   mental or  spiritual  attainment .
90 . The  absolute  never  works  or  creates but only  manifest  through  Involution /Evolution  desire  of the  Divine.

UN-MASKED   FACE   OF  THE    UNIVERSE :
( Modern  Science  Vs  Spiritual  Universe )
 91. The  word  GOD  is a  logo  only  or  an expression  and means  as  much  as  we  can  conceive . Yet   God , the  omnipotent  can not  be a  anthropomorphic  biology  with a  Belly -button . Also, ;  Heaven is  not  any  physical  island   on  Space-Time  sphere .
92  Religion  is , most  often,   an ethnic , social   or  regional cultural  idea about  God  the  Omnipotent  power that  regulates  our life  and living ,  by  Involution-Evolution process. To me, religion is like  a dressing  gown  while     spirituality is  the  real man   within .
93. It is  better  to  learn  one  good thing  and practice it  through out life  than gathering  Knowledge,-  like  a  Store-keeper.
94 . it is  only  fool's  idea  that  God  of  different   religions   must  be  different divinities. If  there is a  god of  any  form , that  must  be the  absolute  Creator  and  Authority  of whole Cosmos and  not  of  particular Religion , Sect  or  Group only .
95. Our real  identity  is  not our  body nor our ' Name- Plate' ( nor ID-card) but  but  our  consciousness-awareness- Potential  or Soul. When  we  die , it is  our  soul  only,- that  will survive  and  be  transferred  to our  new  posting , promoted or  demoted.
96.  Every thing  and  every being  from Microbe  to Man  is  single  , indivisible  continuum of  Existence , even if in  the  field of  Relativity . The  sense  of  division is   ignorance in the  field of  ' REALITY'.
97 . Without  a mirror  or  reflection  we can not  see our  own face. Without Consciousness  we  would  not  know  anything  not even  our  God   would  exist.
98.  The  Universe  exist  only  in our  Consciousness and  also  because  of  the  presence  of  an  observer.
The  knower--knowledge and field  of  observation is  some  indivisible  whole of the COSMIC  Game .
99. " I think ,  so I am  '  said  Descartes.
  "I  am,  so  I  am  made  to  think "   is  my  personal faith and  due  to  the  gift of  consciousness to me  by  the Divine .
100.  Spirituality  is  integrated  involvement  and  evolutionary   quality  in  Conscious -Human,-  on the  highest  RUNG  of  Evolutionary  Ascent  up till now   and  endowed  with   by  Divine, I believe.
 (Concluded).
