Essence of Spirituality

The essence of dharma ,spirituality,is hidden in guha. There are several meaning of guha in Sanskrit. One indicates the cave wherein God resides. It is unwise to leave the world, to leave service to humanity and go to the Himalaya to attain Paramapurusa. Well ! This universe is Paramapurusa- where will you go by leaving it ? In the world one think that he is not able to concentrate his mind because of the din and bustle; but in the cave of the Himalaya one thinks that he cannot get sweet fruit in a particular jungle, and hence tomorrow he will be going to pick ripe plums two or three miles away in a different forest. In either of the places one is not free. If Paramapurusa does not want you to know Him, then you will not be able to attain Him in eigher place. If He wishes you to achieve Him, you can get Him here and now.  Remember it - that at every step of your life. He is testing where you have been able to arouse love for Him in your mind. He is testing where you want Him or worldly objects. 

    The other meaning of guha is " I am , " that is the essence of dharma, Paramapurusa, is hidden in your own " I-ness". That which is hedden in your own "I-ness"- is it essential for you to go to the Himalayas insearch of it ? Do you require the help of a mirror to see your wristwatch on your wrist ? No, you will never do that . You have already attained Him, you are simply not able to see Him. 

Ishvara Pranidhan

The evolved psychic self of the human being can realise this eternal and natural phenomenon of Cosmic association, through the science of Ishvara-Pranidhan, which is essentially a psycho-spiritual process. "  So when the objectivity of the microcosm, the Jivatma - the subjective counterpart of the Macrocosm, that is Purusottama ( Idea and Ideology).

  To be in its pure self , the psyche is to be isolated from its different complexes, external and internal. Rajadhiraj Yoga process of Sadhana teaches the psychic process of withdrawl. The psychic-self is a vibrational entity; to realise cosmic association it has to flow in a psycho-spiritual direction which is caused by the impact of spirituo-psychic vibration of the Ista Mantra. Ista Mantra is attained by the grace of the Guru.

The transformation of micro-cosmic "I" into Microcosmic " I " is the goal of Isvara-Pranidhan. It is known as Mukti or Savikalpa Samadhi. Ideation of Ista-Mantra causes the association of microcosmic-self with the ideational and associative rays of Purusottama. Gradually , the objectivity of microcosm is transformed into the objectivity of Macrocosm. It leads to the identification of microcosm and Macrocosm or Purusottama .

The Occult Powers of Paramapurusa (God)

What is the goal of human life ? A man should love what ? paramapurusa or occult powers ? If one gains occult powers, one may do so many things , In the third stage sadhana, a sadhaka gets some occult power, and after getting that occult power , suppose he becomes engaged with it , suppose he wants to disply it . What will happen ? He will fall down ? He will be nowhere. He won't remain a sadhaka. So in that stage , in the third stage , he will have to be very very cautious. And even with those occult powers he should say , I want Paramapurusa, not the occult powers. Do you follow?

 What will the mother do at that time ? She will give a toy to that baby and again start he cooking duty.  She will have to to do like this a mother cuddling a baby in her arms. It is the mother , and the toy , that an intelligent baby wants.

Similarly , the occult power is just like a toy, If Paramapurusa gives you a toy , what should you say ? Should you say " Oh ! ah , very good , very good  ? No you should say , I don't want it , I want YOU. I don't want a toy. I want the toy MAKER. You will have to select between occult powers and Paramapurusa. 

When a sadhaka wants occult powers from Paramapurusa he may or may not get occult powers, but it is sure that he will not get Paramapurusa because he din't want Paramapurusa. He wanted occult powers so he may or may not get occult powers , but he won't get Paramapurusa. Be very strict in the respect. You should always remember this .  But Paramapurusa will remain with you even at that time , for that property is of a permanent nature. 

Occult power is  also an ordinary power. The general public doesn't possess that ordinary power, that's why they think it is a supernatural power. Gold is also a ordinary metal, but because it is a bit rare , that's why it is costly ; otherwise machine , spades, tractors would have been manufactured with the help of what ? Gold , not iron. It is just like that. So an intelligent sadhaka should always remember that they only wants Paramapurusa not occult power like a toy.
