Resolute single-minded focus is required to be your best. When you aim for your best, you are closing in on the Ultimate best, the Absolute. The ego is not your enemy. People have egos because subconsciousl…

उपदेश सार के अंतिम, ११वें प्रवचन में पूज्यपाद श्री स्वामी आत्मानन्द जी महाराज बताते हैं की पूर्व के श्लोक में आत्मा-चिंतन का महादेव ने तरीका बताया अब इसका एक और सरल उपाय बताते हैं। यह है - पांचकोश विवेक। साधक को एक एक करके उपाधियों में अपनी एटीएम बुद्धि को समाप्त करना चाइये तब ही आत्म-ज्ञान में स्थिरता होती है। विपरीत ज्ञान ही ज्ञान में निष्ठां के …

उपदेश सार के १०वें प्रवचन में पूज्य गुरूजी श्री स्वामी आत्मानन्द जी महाराज बताते हैं की अपने मन पर विचार करने के लिए एक सरल उपाय होता है। वे बताते हैं की मन वृत्तियों का प्रवाह होता है। हमारे मन में प्रत्येक वृत्ति किसी न किसी विषय की तरफ हमारा ध्यान मोड़ती है। अतः मोटे तौर से इन सब वृत्तियों को 'इदं वृत्ति" कहा जाता है। यद्यपि ज्यादातर वृत्तियाँ इद…

उपदेश सार के ९वें प्रवचन में पू स्वामी आत्मानन्द जी ने बताया की एक-चंतन रुपी साधना के लिए महर्षि कहते हैं जब तक दूसरे का अस्तिव्त है तब तक ही मन कहीं भटकेगा लेकिन जब अन्य मिथ्या हो जाता है और आत्मा ही सत्य जान ली जाती है तब मन कहाँ जायेगा? इसके लिए वे केहते हैं की अपने मन में जो कोई भी विचार हैं उन्हें दृश्यवारित अर्थात दृश्य से रहित कर देना चाहिए।…

The world is about the outside in. Masters are about the inside out In physical, reality is never as good as the fantasy. In spirituality, the fantasy is never as good as the Reality.

उपदेश सार के ८वें प्रवचन में पू स्वामी आत्मानन्द जी ने बताया की जब किसी पुण्यात्मा ने अपने जीवन में भक्ति का आशीर्वाद प्राप्त कर लिया तो निश्चित रूप से उसका मन शान्त और सात्त्विक हो जाता है, लेकिन जब तक ईश्वर के चरणों में अनुराग प्राप्त नहीं होता है, तब तक मन इधर-उधर भटकता है। कई बार आँधियों और तूफ़ान आते हैं, ऐसे मन को कैसे निग्रहीत करा जाये। इसके …

उपदेश सार के सातवें प्रवचन में पू स्वामी आत्मानन्द जी ग्रन्थ के ८वें से लेकर १०वें श्लोक पर चर्चा करते हैं। भक्ति की साधना मोठे तौर से दो भागों में विभाजित होती है। एक में भगवान् अभी भक्त से अलग होते हैं, वे हम से अलग किसी लोक में रहते हैं, तथा बाद में कुछ लोग भगवन को अपने ह्रदय में अंतर्यामी की तरह से जानते हैं। ऐसे भक्त कभी अपने को भगवान् का अंश …

External desire is not to be confused with biological impulses such as hunger, wanting to be comfortable physically (not feeling too hot or too cold), wanting to sit down to rest your tired or sore feet, feelings of thirst, etc. External desire also is not to be confused with having personal preferences in terms of what food you want to eat or what…

The Absolute: The Ultimate Individual The Absolute is a unique singularity that is the Best in all things. I call it the Ultimate individual. When we discover ourselves more deeply, we recognize our connection with the Absolute, which makes us even more of an individual. It is the best potential for all things and yet it is so unique that it makes …

First, what does it mean to be last? It means to put the Absolute Ultimate first. By doing this, you put the Best in everything and everyone first, and yourself last. Ironically, I consider this Selfish behavior. Everyone is naturally selfish. People may deny it since nobody wants to be seen as "selfish", but we all put who we identify with, first.…

Liberation Defined I guess it all depends on how you define what it is to be liberated. Some on the extreme might even say that not identifying with self is liberating because then you are no longer responsible for what you do. Others might say meaninglessness is liberating because then you don't need to search for meaning anymore. I say liberation…

उपदेश सार के चौथे प्रवचन में ग्रन्थ के तीसरे श्लोक पर प्रकाश डालते हुए पूज्यपाद श्री स्वामी जी महाराज ने बताया कि पिछले श्लोक में महादेवजी ने बताया की कर्म कब मन रुपी मुकुर (शीशे) करने वाला बन जाता है, और अब इस श्लोक में वे बताते हैं की कर्म कब बंधनकारी बन जाता है। जिसकी प्राथमिकताएँ लौकिक वस्तुओं की होती हैं वे लोग ही बाहरी घटनाओं से प्रभावित होते…

उपदेश सार के तीसरे प्रवचन में ग्रन्थ के दूसरे श्लोक पर प्रकाश डालते हुए पूज्यपाद श्री स्वामी आत्मानन्द जी महाराज ने बताया कि कर्म अत्यंत समर्थ होता है। अनेकानेक लौकिक आवश्यकताएं कर्म से ही प्राप्त हो सकती हैं, इसलिए कर्म अवश्य करना चाहिए। कर्म केवल अपनी लौकिक जरूरतों के लिए नहीं होता है, लेकिन एक कर्म का अत्यंत महान और दिव्य सामर्थ्य के लिए भी होता…

It is a false perception of self that can be a failure, not Self itself. People who demean the concept of self just fail to understand it. The Ultimate individual is the Absolute, which is a singularity. Although it is One, it pervades all things. The same is true in the microcosm of being human. Through your individuality, you also can have the ex…

No mind can be a master. Mastery is experiencing the Oneness of the Ultimate all the time. It is a lifestyle. I don't want to act like I'm evading the question, but to even understand Mastery is to understand it is not about being a master over others, but in seeing the greatness in everyone. It is a humble experience. Humility is not measured by h…

The Definition of Reality One of the biggest deceptions ever devised was to convince people that life can end. To define life by biological sensual parameters is to underestimate reality. Only material existance, the most superficial version of life, can have the illusion of death. Death itself was created as a release from sensual prison. So that …

Nicotine withdrawal has such wonderful deep meaning. It certainly is a conflicted state of being, whereby divisions occur within yourself. It is almost like a "civil war" in a sense. The biological cells of your body crave nicotine since they are addicted and they covet this as a source of power and pleasure. They try to send all the signals they c…

I disagree that those words are applicable today. The chain of succession was broken. In such a situation, definitely the Absolute can intervene directly. The fact is that in any succession, there is always at least one who was the first. Whoever this first was, was not in a line of succession. In fact, the Absolute can do anything it wants and ins…

The problem with those who think everything is about love being the solution (love is very important), is that they are only seeing a fraction of what is going on. Love does not bring equanimity or discernment. The concept of order itself is a deception. Chaos/order dichotomy is a false dichotomy invented as a deception. There is only one true dich…

The next version of psychotherapy is applied philosophy. By changing how you think and your concept of reality, it is possible to cure psychosis. However, for this step to occur, a certain baseline of independence is required. Mass psychosis is a form of mass ideological possession, which in turn can just be a code word for an external entity/entit…

The arrogance of science is to assume that consciousness is biological. Actually, consciousness is beyond biology and physicality. All of biology is like the tip of the iceberg. Biology in a sense is like puppetry, animated by the spirits within. It's not the biochemical process that creates the reaction, but consciousness itself that initiates the…
