Subject is States of consciousness as per siddha tradition! Just today morning in the pancha tapas I was experiencing a extraordinary strong awareness not just in my nervous system in it is always there, I was experiencing it all over! I can say it is one of the important revelation happened in me – the highest utility of the body is to experience the pure witnessing consciousness in the body. That is the highest utility, highest possibility, best thing that can happen to the human body.

There was a chanting going on when I was sitting in the Samadhi. One word – Parmakaaranaaya – this word got caught into my system. This word means the ultimate cause. I was meditating what is the ultimate cause, reason for the body. The ultimate reason for the body, the ultimate utility of the human body is to experience the pure awareness to be the centre of the pure awareness. That’s all! Nothing else. Please understand so many things will happen in front of the pure awareness. If you are interested in seeing some part, your body will turn to that part. In front of the pure awareness so many great spiritual things will be happening, violent abusive things, dharmic things, pleasure things will be happening. Whatever you will feel interested in looking at you will assume that kind of body. That’s all. If you are interested in pleasure, you will assume that kind of body, if you are interested in dharma, you will assume that kind of body, if you are interested in violent aggressive political waves you will assume that kind of body that kind of place, if you are interested in the spiritual happenings, please understand in the presence of the cosmic awareness all this things happen. If you are interested in the spiritual depth, then you will assume that kind of body. I am not just talking about every birth you take, you will have that kind of body - NO. I am saying every morning when you wake up you can alter at least 3 ½ % of your body. Because every night at least 3 ½ % of you falls into complete turiya avastha. For example, if you have 100 ideas about you before falling asleep, 3 ½ ideas does not come back to you next day morning. 3 ½ ideas are lost in turiya. And you have that 3 ½ space to create new ideas. For example, you may have ideas like I am strong, I have poor health, I am happy, I do not like thi,s etc. when you carry this and fall asleep next day morning when you wake up for normal human beings, if you do intense hoomkara meditation before falling asleep and a pinch of pure camphor with milk if you take, it is ordinary pure camphor used in temples not processed camphor, pure camphor one pinch put in quarter litre milk and drink and do this meditation, 3 1/2 thoughts do not come back, you will have freedom to expand. Every day you have the freedom to alter 3 ½ thoughts or major concepts you carry about you, you can be beaten and re-built. So If you want to change all your thoughts it just takes 33 days – one month for new personality. Nothing else!

Actually to tell you honestly it was not only surprise it was a shock to me that everyday 31/2 thoughts about our identity we don’t get it back. Unfortunate thing is in the day time you force yourself and get it back! If you are simply making a decision towards new personality, identity, forget them. Don’t bring them back. Yesterday one of my brahmacharini was saying about some emotional struggle I asked her do you want it or you don’t want it. She thought for a long time and said she does not want it. Then I said, forget about it, it will disappear in few days. A simple conscious decision directed in our koorma naadi is enough. I am telling you every night do hookaara mediation or this shakti dhaarana meditation and take milk and camphor. This is enough. When you do this, 7 thoughts do not come back the next day morning. For example, if this building is your personality. If you are 100 pillar for this building, every day morning when you come back, 3 ½ pillars are missing. So you can put your own pillars in that space.

If with this one understanding we go on replacing our thoughts, the transformation of human consciousness becomes such an easy job. You just need to decide to forget about the 3 ½ thoughts and next day morning you need to create new pillars that’s all. The big problem is always when I tell it looks so simple and you think I can’t practice it. Telling it is easy, but not for practicing. No. That is one more thought! Maybe this is the foundation on which all thoughts are built. Patanjali calls this as postponement - one of the worst diseases that stops your conscious enlightenment. I am telling you from an honest conscious research about three truths -

1. Highest utility reason for the body is to radiate and be the center of the pure awareness. 2. In front of the pure awareness all possibilities are dancing. When you go and live among the different civilizations only you will understand each civilization is a different world all together. Only when I had this association with police, lawyer I came to know oh god! The very thinking trend in them is different. They are different species altogether. Same way when you come in contact with the cut throat corporate business people you will understand they are different species all together. Same way different teams. So in front of pure awareness, all dances are going on. Whichever dance you pick up and whatever idea you will give more awareness you will assume that kind of awareness and tuning. 3. The changing of the tuning does not happen only when you take new bodies. It happens even while you fall asleep and lie down in the night and daytime. Each time you fall asleep more than 4 hrs, 3 ½ pillars are removed and you have chance to put new 3 ½ pillar or get the same old 3 ½ pillars or even more dangerous 3 ½ pillars. So every day you either grow or go down! Human life is a great possibility, a very great possibility. I am telling you these are some of the very deep secrets. Especially this one thing 3 ½ thoughts does not come back after every 4 hr sleep. We will prove it someday through research. And if you do this hookara meditation and taking camphor and milk, 7 thoughts do not come back then. With this basic 3 truths we will enter into the understanding of states of consciousness of siddha tradition. I may not be able to complete this subject but I will start today and continue tomorrow. Siddhas have done so much of research & development in so many different fields and there the advantage of the alchemy science- means all the herbs were available for them. Please understand the Ganges civilization, the vedic civilization was more animal based civilization means they were getting their food from animals like cow, goat. That is why the respect and revere animals – they do Go pooja. The Kaveri civilization was not only animal based but tree based too. That is why kaveri civilization had tree worship also. Worshipping trees, respecting trees was from the kaveri civilizztion. Because this guys had possibility to understand the utility of both. So they were using trees, herbs pants everything to alter their state of consciousness. Still, in Tamil Nadu villages they have the saying – there is a story. There was a mother who does not want to be away from her son but the son wants to travel and see the country. So mother puts one condition on him saying - “when you go away from the house, when you start travelling you should always sleep under the tamarind tree. When you decide to come back, always sleep under the neem tree. If you sleep under the tamarind tree for more than 30 days you will fall sick. That guy fell sick. So he decided to come bk. He started sleeping under the neem tree and became healthy by the time he reached home! Siddhas know the science to alter the state of consciousness. Tamarind tree breeze is very hot. Sleeping under the tamarind tree in night time is not good for health. But sleeping under need tree is very good for the body. It heals. I will start talking on states of consciousness in siddha tradition and techniques and herbs are used to infuse that state of consciousness into human beings. In siddha tradition, the states of consciousness is not 3 or 4 as in vedic tradition. In vedic tradition it is jaagrath, swapna, sushupthi, turiya. In siddha tradition they work on one more state called ‘turiyateetha.’ Siddha tradition works I don’t know what is the purpose but they work on 5 states and they work on the 5th state called turiyateetha. Jagrath means waking state at least 40% of you are in. Dream state all of you know which you experience every time you fall asleep - Swapna. I will give the meanings now, later I want to use the technical term itself. So that you understand the technical term. Not keeping the technical terms alive was one of the reason for destruction of vedic tradition and siddha tradition. Even if you translate all these great truths, the original sabdha (word or sound) should be kept alive. It should not be lost. That is why I insist in all my vedic books, I insist on retaining the original sanskrit language in the devanagari lipi. You can then have bhashya, bhashya on bhashya which is the vaartika, bhashya on bhashya on bhashya the teeka anything you can write. I request all of you to understand the 5 states. They are – 1. Jagrath – waking state 2. Swapan – dream state 3. Sushupthi – Deep sleep state 4. Turiya – in the deep sleep sometime you go to that depth where you touch the restful awareness. Sometime when you will wake up you will think oh god I did not sleep the whole night, you will have no thoughts and will feel awake whole night. Especially if you have mediated or you had a energy darshan or if you have been an energy medium you will experience this. 5. Turiyateeta – means being established in that turiya state forever. I can say turiya is like a satori. Turiyateetha is like a nithya samdhi, eternal Samadhi. These are the 5 states. Now siddhas are explaining how these 5 states overlap on each other. It is not just that the 5 states are happening in you in separate separate timings - NO. See now so many of you are in different states. I can diagnose in which state you are in. I will recite the original verse in which siddhas talk about the overlapping of these 5 states and then I will speak about the individual states. This verse is from Tirumoolar who did – parakkaya preavesha from one body to other who is a direct disciple of nandi deva, nandi, he was doing astral travel towards southern Bharat. In a southern part of Tamil Nadu he sees a young shepherd boy in his twenties lying dead because of a snake bite and all his pet animals cows and goats standing around him and shedding tears crying for him. This siddha was shaken when he saw that. He though - Oh god! how well he would have taken care of all those animals who were licking his body and crying. Knowing he was bitten by snake and licking his body, they make get the poison into their system, they still did it. The Siddha decided alright just to console this animals I will get into his body and heal them. He kept his body in a safe place and got into that boy’s body. All animals started jumping. He took them all back to home and went home. When night came, problem started because his wife slowly started dragging him into bed. And this siddha suddenly appeared and told her oh my dear, I am not your husband he is dead I assumed his body to console the animals. She was not able to control but she was very intelligent girl. She just controlled her suffering and begged him to stay in her house for few days so that all relatives will be handled. She asked for few days to prepare them. She was so intelligent she told some villagers next day morning and they went and burnt the old body. So he cannot get back to the old body. He has to live in the new body now. This is the way first translation of the vedic truths was transmitted into tamil language. the soul knew all the highest conscious truths and he this tirumoolar lived for 300 yrs and wrote volumes and volumes of truths on all the spiritual experiences experienced by him. I will start the first verse by him now – quotes a tamil verse. This one verse if I describe and give you just the translation it needs 5 days! I will give you the essence and take you into the deeper layers of this song tomorrow. It is a really powerful verse. Because next next verses you will be able to understand only if you understand this verse. Somehow siddha tradition has almost become like a addition – the extra R\&D done on vedic tradition. Vedic tradition is almost like a syllabus book, siddha tradition is like a monthly magazine. In monthly magazine you will have some tips about that subject more research done on that subject. Understand this much now - Jagrath or waking state is a state where you can understand, analyze, accept and you will have ability to shift yourself to all the 5 states and overlapping of all the 5 states on to each other. See I am defining once more waking state is a state from which you can have understanding, ability to move to all 5 states. From dream state you will not have the ability to shift yourself to other state, from deep sleep you will not have ability to understand and shift to other state. No. this is the state – waking state where you will have freedom and ability to understand other state and shift into any other state Let the grace of siddhas be with all of us to experience the highest state of consciousness through the understanding of diff states. Blessings!
