“Yesterday I saw a TV program – a so called non-religious organization’s…”
Prayer. Welcome. Basically I am a village boy who is born and bought up in a temple based village. Means the whole village life style is temple based. Morning when we wake up we wake up to the temple bell. We know it is evening by the sound of the temple evening songs and a brass talam – an instrument which a village old man will be singing in his voice which has no raga, swara or tala ☺ we wake up with the temple bell, we retire for the evening with the temple songs. In 365 days at least 300 days the deity will come for procession through out the village. So once the deity leaves our street and house we sleep. So still seeing a deity is sacred for me. after enlightenment you are given the freedom to leave, add, alter anything you want. The few things I did not leave after enlightenment is seeing the deities and temples ☺ so how you will be excited to see me every morning as soon as the screen opens, I also have excitement to see 10 temples online every day ☺ that sacred feeling of wow I am having darshan of 10 temples everyday! Just like how you all wait today what he is going to wear, what is going to be the colour, what is going to be the throne, what is going to be the ear ornament – how you all wait with excitement, I also wait – wow it is so nice to see so many temples every day. At least for this joy, I will go on be creating temples! I tell all our devotees, disciples, samajis, satsangis – don’t live in a village which has no temple. By law, make it as your life style. If you don’t have temple in your village at least create one in your house. If you just allow this temple in your life, the whole thing all spiritual dimensions will start opening up.
Yesterday I saw a TV program – a so called non-religious organization’s conduct. 4 years before what they did and what they are doing now is completely different! They are now doing aarthi and mantra chanting and other things. I think wow – I set a trend! First I thought I will make pancha bhoota kshetras, 12 jyotirlingas, 54 shakti sthalaas. Now I decided we will have 108 vishnu sthalaas.
As you all are aware in the morning I am working on Yoga sutras. In the evening I will be speaking on Brahmasutras. For a long time I wanted to speak on brahmasutras. First time ever in English a modern day master is expanding and expressing Brahmasutras. It is not only expanding it is a great happening. But I can say this 21 days is going to be unique because you are listening yoga and Vedanta from a guy whose very life is yoga and Vedanta. You are listening to the yoga Vedanta who is the very source. My very bone marrow and blood will sing yoga Vedanta. Yoga & Vedanta is just my very juice. So I really feel you guys are so fortunate. Not only that I am also enjoying. I can see very clearly the extraordinary intelligence expressing!
Today’s satsang subject is the art of becoming invisible. Patanjali is speaking about one the great extraordinary power and siddhi e
127th Patanjali Yoga Sutras, 3rd chapter 21st verse –
Kaaya rupa sanyamaat …chakshu prakasa samprayoge antar dhaanam
Vivkenanda: trhu the practice of samyama on the form of the body the power of perceiving…eye being separated from the form, the yogi’s body becomes unseen
Prabhavananda: if one makes samyama on the form of ones body obstructing its perceptibility and separating its power of manifestation from the eyes of the beholder then ones body become invisib.e
Satchitananda:by samyama on the form of ones body checking the power of ..the body becomes invisible
Osho:thru samyama the image occupying anothers mind can be known. But perception thru samyama does not brign know of the mental factors of the image….the contact between eye of an observer and light from the body is broken and body becomes invisible.
This sutra is the technique for one of the great siddhi – disappearing, becoming invisible. The right translation is becoming invisible. Sit in padmasana an d see through the 3rd eye. Bring your awareness to 3rd eye and see through the 3rd eye. I will
Let me expand on the sutra. The sutra says very beautifully doing samyama on one’s own body. do samyama on your body. stop the vibrations your body is creating in the space which reaches the other person’s eyes which perceives this form as a form so that your form becomes invisible to the person who is seeing. It is not that you will disappear. You can feel it with your hand but your eyes cannot see it.
Sit with wide open eyes, really wide open and see me thru the 3rd eye. I am now stopping the signals my body creates in the space and your eyes instrument which perceives signals, I am separating the perception of the eyes in your eyes. So there is 2 process. 1. Stopping the light created in the space by my body 2. Separating the power of perception from through your eye. This becoming invisible is one of the oldest fantasy! I can say the yogis and siddhas were trying for ages and successfully achieve fulfillment in the experiment and create a technology to experience this. it takes time when you practice on your own. But now, I am intiating this to you and inspiring you to have more Shraddha on the yogic tradition.
I want all of you to understand how this happnens. Just bring your awareness to the 3rd eye so that the perception and tool which separates the perceiver. This samyama not only gives you experience of invisibility, it also gives you the great truth of whatever you see is not reality. I can see very clearly the vibration of the waves sent from my body existing is settling down and slowly in the eyes of the people the perceiver and perception are being separated.
The purpose of this samyamais 2. 1. You having the extraordinary power of how to become invisible to ordinary eyes. 2 – you understanding realizing whatever is seen or shown are not reality. If you are seeing something or you are seen by somebody both are not reality. These 2 understanding is the sacred secret you need to know from this sutra. The technique you need to know from this sutra is bring your awareness to the eyes with a deep restful awareness, see how the scenes are perceived by the seer. Just rbhing your awareness to your eyes and see how the seen is perceived by your eyes - seeer! I wanted all of your to know these samyamas are not jokes or some old mythological fantasy myths. No. they are truths. Yesterday I was doing research and saw the American universities are proving that the light
Befoe it reaces the perceivers object without any the object and the perceiver it can be deflected. So the perceiver will not be seeing the person.
Only this body creates vibrations and signals in the space. I am me. I don’t create any vibration and so when you don’t have any samskara inside you, you will become so subtle that you will not create any vibration even in the space, in the air! Just feel the 3rd eye. How scenes are reaching you, signals are reaching you and how tht is seen is perceived in the 3rd eye.try today whole day try this samyama. Seeing and the perception separate these 2 actions don’t be pessimistic or feeling sad it cannot be. Now it works. Try it really works. I have seen it work. It will give you confidence on Yoga Sutras and tge greate realization that what is being seen is not reality. Perception is not reality! Blessing!
