Questions :- மனதில் தோன்றும் முறையற்ற பால் உணர்வை எதிர்கொள்வது எவ்வாறு ?   Posted By: பிரபு on January, 2012
Answers :- சராசரி மனிதர்கள் இதைப்பற்றி அக்கறை கொள்வதில்லை, ஆனால் ஆன்மிக வழியில் பயணிப்பவர்களில் பலர் இதை ஓர் அடிப்படைப் பிரச்சினையாகவும், அன்றாடப் பிரச்சினையாகவும் எதிர்கொள்கின்றனர். மனத்தை பொறுத்தவரை முறையானது, முறையற்றது என எதுவும் கிடையாது. இயற்கையில் எல்லா உயிரினங்களுக்குமே இந்த ஈர்ப்பு உணர்வு உண்டு. அது போன்றுதான் நமக்கு ஏற்ப்படும் பால் உணர்வும். எல்லா உணர்வுகளும் தோன்றி மறையும் தருவாயிலேயே நம்மால் அடையாளம்கண்டு கொள்ளபடுகிறது. மனத்தில் தோன்றும் இந்த ஈர்ப்பு உணர்வை குற்ற உணர்ச்சியாக எடுத்துக்கொள்ளதேவையில்லை. அவற்றின் ஆயுள் ½ வினாடியே, இது போன்ற உணர்வே நமக்கு வரக்கூடாது என்று போராடும்போது தான் மறையும்தருவாயில் இருக்கும் உணர்வை மீண்டும் புதுபித்து விடுகிறோம். “இந்த உணர்வுதான் வரவேண்டும்” “இந்த உணர்வு வர கூடாது” என்ற எந்த விதிமுறையும், கட்டுப்பாடும் மனதிற்கு கிடையாது. ஆனால் புறத்தில் நமது செயல் முறையானதாக இருக்கவேண்டும். ஒழுக்கங்களை கடைபிடிக்கவேண்டும். மனம் நம் கட்டுப்பாட்டில் இல்லை என்பதை புரிந்துகொண்டாலே போதும். தன்னையே எதிர்த்துப் போராடிய மனம், போராடாத மனமாக மாறிவிடுகிறது. போராடாத மனத்தில் எந்த உணர்வும் தங்கியிருக்கபோவதில்லை. உணர்வு பிரவாகமாகவே மாறிவிடுகிறது. இதைத்தான் “ Liberated mind ” விடுதளையுற்ற மனம் என்று சொல்லுகிறோம். விடுதலையுற்ற மனத்தில், உணர்வுக்கும் புறச்செயலுக்கும் இடையே ஓர் இடைவேளி தோன்றிவிடும். உணர்வை எதிர்த்து போராடாதபோது, புறச்செயல் நம் கட்டுப்பாட்டில்தான் இருக்கும்.  Answered By: Sri Bagavath on January, 2012

Questions :- What is Individual,Collective and Cosmic Consciousness ? Is Liberation / Salvation attainment of Cosmic Consciousness ? Is it like if Cosmis consciousness is attained we will have a feeling of a Diffused Awareness like in a dream ie.,The World appear as a dream and the dreamer knows that it is a dream and just enjoying the show effortlessly ?   Posted By: Chandrasekar on December, 2010
Answers :- There is consciousness only. We can’t classify it into three. When we have individual consciousness, we feel us, as an individual. Otherwise, the total consciousness itself becomes unconscious. A healthy body won’t feel its existence of being. If we are feverish, we will know the existence of our body prominently. A healthy body is always unconscious. It is consciously unconscious. If we take it to be the role of a dreamer or witness, it’s nothing but our thought and imagination. We attend everything only by our mind. We recognize everything only when we convert everything as the product of our mind. But our mind is not a static one. It is like a mirror and it reflects, whatever comes in front of it. Similarly, we understand and recognize everything, as the reflections of our mind. All our reflections are as temporary as passing clouds. Unless we don’t catch hold of such reflections, they come on their own and fade on their own. It is meaningful when it happens. It is dream like when it is over. When our mind responses to a situation, it becomes conscious. When the response is over, our mind becomes unconscious. It is consciously unconscious. The mind which is functioning without self contradictions, becomes unconscious. The healthy mind is consciously unconscious   Answered By: Sri Bagavath onDecember, 2010

Questions :- Respected sir Your books on Enlightment are great treasures. There are some questions not on the unseen-the prior to mind because it is prior to concepts ; but I have some question on action the result of mind. We are not dreams ,we are just being dreamt ( by someone) Everything happens on its own , so what or who is there to own. Bheeshmar We cannot even act according to our will in our dream , how can we act or decide something if we are just a character in someone’s ( god , nature , consciousness ) dream. In short the below paragraph is to say that there is no inherent goodness or bad in anything ; and If something should happen it will happen . Englightment is nothing to do with the concepts of mind ; because it is prior to mind- if something should happen let it happen who cares. There is nothing like Good and Bad; Happiness or Sadness (Sukka or Dukka-Ka means space ; so these two are just a projections in the space) . Good and bad is just a relative phenomenon or interdependent . Good feeds itself in Bad and bad feeds itself in Good ; Individually they don’t exist. If Theresa should exist , Hitler should exist; The duality is essence of life ; it the one through which the mind dances. Prior to mind it is unseen ; but after mind involves it is seen so duality is essence of manifestation . Each society ,family ,people defines good according to itself or himself. What is good to a Muslim is not good to a Hindu; what is good to a Christian is not good to a Buddhist. Not only that, what is good in one culture is bad in another culture. A law has to be universal. But a law cannot be a universal because it is product of mind ; mind lives on paradoxes ; based on this paradoxes we cannot approach the prior state using a concept or law. The moment we realize that our mind is just a product of various concepts then who cares if something should happen let it happen . Why we do something , the physical action is propelled by a mental action , so now what is a mental action ; it is only bundle of thoughts ; now what is thought it is only rubbish concepts that society , culture , parents , teachers programmed us. As you said in your previous books ; “If you are a human being you will have thoughts and response” Yes based on our conditioning we have thoughts ; there are nothing like pure thoughts in this universe all are only conditioned. The conditioning IS THE PRIME ESSENCE of the programming in the mind-body organism. My point is that science accepts that the DNA in each individual is unique. There are no two human bodies with the same DNA. So based on our conditioning thoughts arise ; and these thoughts give rise to action. Conditioning is a eternal process . The instrument, because of the ego and the conditioning, thinks that it is his action or her action. But the point is that, at any moment, any action that happens through any body-mind organism is something which is supposed to happen at that moment at that time and place through that particular body-mind organism, according to nature according to the cosmic law. We can take your example- Beating a manager or not beating him ; it is not based on our intellect ; it is based on the society and circumstances. For example I was in Saudi Arabia there if a manger scolds us we can beat him . But in India there is no such law ; but again we are conditioned by our religion ; parents and our friends etc. Based on our conditioning we will react; we can’t do anything ; our intellect is just a good whole product of conditioning . If Nature or God or fate is decided that we should beat the manager we will beat him there will be a complete set- up ; the environment , the quality of the situation will be provided to us so we will beat him. All actions happening through all the body-mind organisms at any one time is exactly what is supposed to be, according to the cosmic law. No human being does anything —the basic point is that there is no Individual I(doer) to do this. As buddha said – 1.Emptiness is form and form is emptiness 2.Events happen , deeds are done but there is no individual doer. So for the story of Indra given in your forthcomming book my point of view is ; if something bad happens it is because of Indra ; if something good happens it is also because of lord Indra . If something should happen it will happen ; there is no pure I or real I to take the rewards or guilt . All actions through all human beings are happenings, created by God or nature or according to the cosmic law. Everything is projection of I from which thought arises ; but the beauty is Even I is a thought, so if I is just an illusion or a unlatched chain or a concept ; so who cares if something should happen let it happen (Enlightment , happiness , sadness , good , bad); it is nothing to do with the unseen which is prior to I ( no mind ,   Posted By: s.bheeshmar on December, 2010

Questions :- who am i?   Posted By: M.dhandapani on December, 2010
Answers :- It is you   Answered By: Sri Bagavath on December, 2010
Questions :- Thanks for your kindness to answer my previous question. Just I couldnt accept the fact that how come this insanity is so pervasive as if that is what is intended in this divine flow, if only gods will is in action, then where is the need for changing anything, i mean both we suffering against the cosmic flow without knowing we cannot change it or being in harmony absorbed as an completely automated entity, is there any difference, i mean at any point what can a dream character do to possibly understand his position, even seeing that he is a dream character would also is just another thought that the dreamer is imposing on one of his own projections, since at any point of time the dream is anyway in complete control of the dreamer. Eventhough as you say we dont bring in the change in attitude ourselves, the mind anticipates that as the attainment in trying to see the fact as nothing is there to attain wherein back in the mind it is anticipating to understand the ultimate understanding, it is like again becoming prey for the trickiness of the mind. So many years of the thought process, iterated and re-iterated to make our conviction, that we born, live and die as an entity of our own will, executing our own duties and responsibilities, to fulfill our own destinies. Is it what we try to do is just another anti-dote which is very specific to the current situation that is in place. From zero, everything is a number, from nothing everything is an idea. As Wei wu wei says, the mere thought of I is instantaneous bondage. But onething couldnt understand is the same, how come this insanity is so pervasive as if that is what intended. I apologize, I know i have clearly confused myself, please clarify.   Posted By: Saravanan on December, 2010
Answers :- Please imagine a vast sea; waves are there in upper portion of the sea. Waves are nothing but our conscious experiences, including our thoughts. We need not try to make a waveless sea. If we try, it is nothing but the effort of wave itself. It is nothing but the effort of establishing a wave itself. The entity, which tries to pacify the struggle, is itself a part of the struggle. So, naturally we ask,’ how shall we get order in our experience?’ We naturally expect a remedy. Is it not? But expecting a remedy alone, is the problem. We expect as if we can get remedy. But the real fact is that there cannot be a waveless sea. Wave is natural in the sea. The thing which tries to control waves, is also a wave. If we try, it will be an endless game. Assuming responsibility to do something, is the real problem. But we do not aware of this basic problem. We are always become serious of doing something or the other. We want something; we want to establish a status. Thereby, we assume a responsibility to achieve the same. Our responsibility is our bondage. If we don’t need anything in the name of higher status – in the name of self realization or in the name of psychological perfection, then there is no necessity for us to assume responsibility. Responsibility is nothing but the responsibility of a wave to control the other waves. It is nothing but the movement of the wave itself. So there is nothing to correct ourselves. If we try to correct ourselves, waves alone get importance. If we don’t correct ourselves, then all waves become unimportant. Then, the waves become part of the total sea.   Answered By: Sri Bagavath on December, 2010
Questions :- How can i understand that i got enlightenment. Can you explain me its feelings and how i will be differ with other persons ?   Posted By:G.BALACHANDRAN on December, 2010
Answers :- If you are able to take your psychological structure whole heartedly, it is the end of everything. Instead, if you try to do something for your psychological perfection then you are still in the process of search. Enlightenment means an understanding that you can’t do anything for your psychological change of perfection. Enlightenment means you needn’t have any responsibility to correct yourself psychologically. If you are able to disown your responsibility, your mind becomes a liberated mind. Your psyche becomes a liberated one. Then, no thought will encircle itself, as a feeling of sorrow or suffering. Our thought will flow like a river without having any eddy. The scientists say that the earth gets the force of gravitation, only because of it’s rotation by itself. Similarly if our thought encircles around a feeling, the feeling gathers weight. If our thoughts enter the regular flow of the mind, then we won’t feel the heaviness of our feelings. Thereby you can identify that you have got enlightened and liberated.   Answered By: Sri Bagavath on December, 2010
Questions :- As you have said in the book Salvation without Meditation my mind is also thinking on how to be idle, how can the I could see that it doesnt exist ? the very breathing pre-supposes and re-iterates the I right. Please help me clarify. As you said, the dreamer cannot be seen in the dream, and so how does that understanding happens that we are a dream character, is it that the very idea gives the salvation ? Is what we call enlightenment is merely a change in attitude ?  Posted By: Saravanan on November, 2010
Answers :- The question is quite reasonable and worth asking. The I consciousness is always in existence. The I consciousness is absent, only in our dreamless sleep. We need not try to prove or establish the existence of I consciousness. It is there. It is an open fact. But whenever we have I conscious, we will never feel the unqualified I consciousness. We always feel that we are somebody or something. This is known as our ordinary I consciousness. It is only the qualified I consciousness. This is also a fact. We can usually visualize it. But there is no necessity for us to deal with these facts. We need not try to attain the unqualified I consciousness. If we try, it is again the effort of the qualified I consciousness. It is not the effort of the unqualified I consciousness to establish itself to be the unqualified I consciousness. Then is there any duty for our I consciousness to do? If it were the duty to attain the unqualified I consciousness, then there is some meaning for our effort. But we have found out that our ordinary I Consciousness cannot do it. So our duty is meaningless, if it were the duty to attain a psychological perfection. What is open for us to take sincere effort for our worldly duty? Enlightenment is nothing but finding out this fact that we need not do anything for our psychological perfection. So we become effortless to correct ourselves. It is righty said, ‘enlightenment is merely a change in attitude’. But we have not deliberately made this change. It happens on its own, when we understand that we need not do anything towards our psychological perfection, But to our surprise, our psychological structure itself under goes a tremendous change towards its perfection, when we have not given importance to its change.   Answered By: Sri Bagavath on December, 2010

  1. Hello Sir. I have read most of your books and I finally understood what is enlightenment. My question can I continue doing meditation which I am doing for past 5 years and if I continue doing meditation will it be a barrier for my enlightenment because you have mentioned If we do yoga or meditation our mind will be in a solid state instead of being in a liquid state but by doing meditation I am very calm and I can concentrate more on my work?
