Bharatn astronomers are the oldest scientists who developed the old astronomy. Vedic rishis are the old astronomers and oldest astrologers. I will define what I mean by astronomy and astrologer. Astronomy means the positions of diff stars & energy centers and knowledge about movements of the stars. Astrology – effect of those energies on your inner space and flow of your life and flow of nature of the planet earth.

Bharatn Rishis are the most powerful astronomers & astrologers. Even the time which you experience the concept of time you experience is based on Bharatn Astrology. No scientists, no human beings other than the rishis were able to penetrate this whole system and science so deeply. Our rishis did not have modern day 1000 variety of telescopes, instruments, tools, equipments. No. nothing was available. Then how could they describe so clearly. All the eclipse the arrangements of the stars, solar system precisely. I can say at least 25,000 years before we have solid record in Rig Veda some of the constellation and arrangement of stars which cannot be predicted, which can only be seen and recorded. Means at least 25,000 yrs before our vedic rishis had so much of intelligence on astronomy that they were able to see, observe and record the calculation of time the most precise calculation of the time and the greatest revelation which modern science is yet to reach – Sun is going around the earth! Please understand, I insist again, Sun is going around the earth – this is revealed by vedic rishis. You need to know how to measure reality. For example dream state, waking state – why do you say dream state is lower reality and waking higher? Because in your concept of time, the waking state reality is longer than dream state reality. So anything we see as reality we see with our concept of time. So when earth goes round sun it takes 1 year, but sun goes around the earth takes billion years. So per our concept of time, ….

Our vedic rishis based all their calculation on the fact that the sun goes around the earth.

I will better draw it and show you. (draws on the board)

If Hiranya garbha is the centre, then the sun is also moving around it and sun would have gone around the earth. Earth may be going around the sun, but since the time consumption is smaller when earth goes around sun – the basic concept of time when we consider earth moving around sun it will not be that precise when compared to the sun going around the earth once in a much longer period of time. This is more precise than the earth going around the sun!

How did the vedic rishis without any telescope, without any instruments, tools able to experience such a strong truth and create such strong understandings, revelations? This is one revelation revealed. I can go on expanding knowledge of vedic rishis in the field of astronomy and astrology. How the energy flow of the different planets and stars and their arrangement directly affect the mental set up of your flow, your body and mind and the nature’s flow. It is very strange but true. The knowledge of Bharatn astrologers on the science of stars, about arrangement of stars – the whole Bharatn astronomy and astrology came out from this one sutra. Or I can say the whole science is revealed by this one sutra. The sacred secret embedded in this sutra is meditate – do samyama on the moon energy. The moon energy. Yesterday I was telling you when the sun energy will be in peak in your being. When you are in the peak physical pleasure the sun energy will be peak in your body. same way, when you fast one paksha – from new moon to full moon – 16 days is called sukla paksha and 16 days from full moon to new moon is amara paksha or Krishna paksha. In either paksha if you fast without solid food but just liquid cool, then in your Hara centre – swadishtana will experience the peak of cooling energy.

Understand, if you visualize the extreme movement, peak movement of physical pleasure and connect that with the sun energy you will have samyama on sun energy. At least 16 days if you are only on 16 days, and continuously do samyama throughout the 16 days on swadishtana chakra – the hara chakra. In the night you should lie down under the open sky, if need place a spatika, pure crystal on your swadishtana and then meditate that in your swadishtana the moon is alive or you become so big that the moon is in your swadishtana. The sacred secrets embedded is revealed for the first time through this samyama. All these can be directly proven.

16 days living on liquid diet, no solid food. Because whenever you take solid food and necessity of digesting the food is required all your energy gets locked in manipuraka it never travels to sahasrara. So 16 days with liquid diet you no need to spend energy on manipuraka. Bring your awareness to your swadishtana, put spatika on your swadhishtana in night time and feel you have become so big that the moon is in you. suddenly you will have complete knowledge on arrangement of stars and effect of the moon & starts on your system. Effect of the stars arrangements on your system is very important to know many things about your life. If you can know the effect of the star arrangements on your system, suddenly you will be able to solve 1000s of problems in your life. Even your own enlightenment will become very easy. You will just get stuck on your own. When master tells you where you are stuck you may not believe him. You may have doubts on him. It is like a blind man is walking in the Himalayas holding a frozen snake thinking it is a stick. A sadhu tells him to drop it. but he man has doubts on sadhu.

These techniques will teach you with clarity where you are stuck. If you know where you are stuck liberating you is very easy. One more thing – if master asks you to give up something and you are not able to give that up and then the existence will snatch that away from you forcibly by when you would have wasted so much time. But this knowledge, this samyama will teach you so many things that you need not waste your time. That is the reason Patanjali goes on giving many such samyamas. It can give you 2 dimensions of knowledge. 1. Position and arrangement of stars. 2. The effect of that on your system – the effect of moon & planets have a direct impact on your life. You can see it in your own life. There are many people who go crazy on poornima and amaavaasya day! Now everybody is looking at their spouse! I don’t know why every man invariably thinks his wife is screw lose and vice versa. It is almost like eternal rule. What to do. Life sometimes is like that only.

By doing samyama on moon energy, knowledge of the arrangement of stars and effect of that arrangement on you will reveal itself to you. especially if you are already initiated, try one of these samyamas. It is all fool proof. There is nothing to lose for you. try this samyamas. It will be good. It will be really good. These samyamas will give you tremendous courage and confidence to follow this vedic tradition. I tell you never ever I have seen vedantis retaining their confidence on the guru till the end. It is always Yogis who experience the effect of samyama till they reach the goal. Because to reach the goal, to see the final space you need tremendous joy, enthusiasm and spirit of high achiever which is direct quality of enlightenment. The spirit of high achiever is always achieved only by yogis who experience these kind of samyamas. Who work and get glimpses of extraordinary powers through these kind of samyamas. Otherwise vedantis make big belly, mouth dirtied by the beetle nut and arguments. It is yogis who practice these kind of samyamas. Unless people practice they become more or less politicians. If you practice these kind of samyama, you will have extreme quality. Then even the sacred secrets behind every shaastra pramaana and apta pramaana will be revealed to you! unless you know the sacred secret behind, you will not know why I shout at you. even to understand master, the sacred secret embedded behind his words, you need these kind of samyama practices. Try this samyama.

16 days no solid food, just liquid food. Every night lie down under open sky. Put a spatika on your swadhishtatna feel you have so big that the moon is in your swadhistana and all stars are in your inner space. I tell you, you will have the unique powerful knowledge of the arrangement of stars and its effect on your system!

We will now enter into the samyama. Bring your awareness to the swadishtana. Learn to do samyama with open eyes. That will always be powerful. Any samyama which can be done with open eyes will become unbroken. Concentration can be broken with the scene seen by the eyes. So with open eyes if you do it, it cannot be broken.

Visualize you have become so huge. Visualize the moon is in your swadishtana. Feel the cooling effect of the moon on your swadishtana! With deep restful awareness bring your attention & energy to your swadishtana – 2 inches below your navel. Visualize the moon & its cooling effect in your swadishtana.

Samyama is nothing but intense energy happening in you by focusing on one truth. Lock yourself in padmaasana and samaana mudra. And even if it breaks, get back to it. Only then your lifting off is happening because of the samyama.

Blessings!
