“Let me enter into today’s sutra”
Prayer. Welcome all the devotees disciples satsangis, samajis sitting with us around the world in 198 places through eNtv, in 8 places ND In 61 ciites, 8 . Ohio, Toronto, LA, Signapore, Malaysia, Uk. I have decided to call all the cities with temple names added so that quickly the temples will become reality. More & more times I use the name, more & more they will become reality.
Let me enter into today’s sutra
The 1st chapter 1st part 23rd sutra -
Atha eva praanaha
It is like a each sutra is like a bomb. He just drops 2, 3 words and I have to go on talking about it for one hour! ☺
Atha eva praanaha
Swami G – ON That very ground praana is Brahaman
Swami V – for that same reason the word prana also refers to Brahman
S – for the same reason breath also refers to Brahman
See yesterday they established very clearly how the word aakaasha denotes Brahman. Aakaasha means space. Now again word praana. For the same reason the word prana also denotes Brahman. Means they are saying for prana also there are enough references in Upanishads in sruthis prana is also expressed as Brahman, prana also is told as Brahman. I will give you some of the references.
Prastotarya Devata vaastavam anva yattata…vipatishyathi iti
Chandokya Upanishad 1st part 10th canto 9th sloka
Meaning is - which then is the deity prana is said regarding the Gita it is said Prastothri that deity which belongs to the prastava , etc. These are some of the references from the Upanishads, from the that the word prana also means Brahman, the word praana is also used to refer Brahman.
Let me go to the next reference – in Chandokya Upanishad 1st part, 11th conto, 5th sloka
Praana ithi ho vaacha..himani bhootani…saishaha Devata prastavam..cheta vidvaan….tye vyapadishyath …mayeti
For all few beings merge in prana alone and in prana they arise this is the deity belonging to the prastava.
Now the question starts when they use the word prana what do they mean? Breath is a very superficial translation for praana. When they use the word praana they really mean vital force. Vital force which functions inside their body, inside your body, inside my body, inside the body of the macrocosm. It is praana which is called Kundalini the life force. Otherwise how do you think just by sitting here, I am calling their name and they are jumping there….whose praana is connected to my praana which is cosmic praana immediately responds. Sometimes thousands of kilometers, thousands of miles - how is it possible? Because praana the vital force is connected. Vital force is connected. Vital force is one which is in you, me and the whole. Let me give you some more references.
Praanasya praanaam – the praana of the praana – Brugaranyaka Upanishad 4th part, 4th canto 18th sloka
And Kaundilya Upanishad very clearly says Praano Bramheti – Prana indeed is Brahman, 3rd chapter, 3rd sloka.
If you see all the scriptural references, Upanishadic references it is established praana is Brahman. Now we need to understand the practical implication by knowing praana is Brahman what am I going to do? By knowing vital force is Brahman what am I going to do? Keep vital force as a first priority in all your actions. In all your actions and reactions let the vital force be the first priority.
In Siddha Tradition they say very beautifully don’t do any action, activity in which you need to forget the vital forces operating in your body. Even if you need to run, remember the vital forces need to run in your system. If you are walking fast, remember the vital force is running in your system. In the Vedic Tradition that is why all the sanyasis have to carry a danda. When you carry a danda, you cannot loose your awareness. Whole day something is there in your hand. Your actions and reactions are controlled, measured constantly drilled by awareness. Maybe the sacred secret in this sutra is be aware of the praana movement in your life. Let the movements of praana be the 1st priority. Morning when you wake up just see the movements of prana in you. Please understand praana is vital force. Movements of prana is your movements like breathing, blood circulation, heart beating, lungs functioning. These are all signs that vital force is still active in you. They themselves are not vital force. Blood circulation itself is not a vital force, Breathing itself is not a vital force, Heart beat itself is not vital force, prana. But all these are signs that prana is alive in you. The vital force is alive in you. Bring awareness, bring your cons to the vital force from the moment you wake up till the moment you go to bed. For example, the moment you wake up feel you are still breathing – only because of that you wake up ☺ Still you are breathing! See still your heart is functioning, lungs are functioning, blood flow is happening. Bring your awareness to prana the side effects and after effects of prana in your system. Bring your energy for the prana to move in your system.
All these beings merge in prana and from prana they arise – Chandokya Upanishad, 1st part, 11th conto, 5th sloka says -
Prana itiyevaacha sarvaani aava himaani bhootani..
Means you merge everyday into prana in the deep sleep you disappear into praana. When you wake up you come out of praana. So whole day the moment you wake up and till you rest remember constantly you are in praana, you are in praana, you are in praana! Awareness of the side effects of praana in you will lead you to the awareness of praana itself. Awareness of praana is praanaayaamaha. Praanaayaama is not just blowing your nose and some kriya. No. the original meaning of the pranaayaama is by being aware of the side effects and after effects of the prana, installing your awareness into praana itself by being establishing your awareness in prana, controlling the prana. Pl und when you become master of pranayama, you will not only awaken your prana but will awaken anybody’s kundalini.
In the level of pranayama itself you will be able to teleport. In the level of pratyahara and dharana you will be able to materialize. Being aware whole day your breathing, your heart functions, your lungs movement, your life inside the body. This is what Buddha teaches as Vippassana. Vedic Tradition they call it Upassana. Buddha calls it Vipassana. Upassana means sitting with God or Guru, Vipassana means sitting beyond personalities, I can say sitting with you, sitting with your original self, the cosmos. But the Vedantis will be terribly offended I am mentioned about Buddha’s name when I am speaking about Brahma Sutras. Because in the Bramha Sutras there is a chapter specially dedicated to break the basic points of Buddhism. You may be wondering how I am going to handle that part. When I come there I will handle don’t worry. ☺ I will handle without disrespecting Buddha and Buddhist tradition. Because my tremendous love for Buddha will not let me to break the Buddhist tradtion.
See all religions have concepts related to spectrum of all tradition . VT has 1G TO 7G. Same way Buddhism has, same way Jainism has concpets for people 1g, 2g, 3g, …7g. The problem is people who belong to the Vedic Tradition 7 G try to break all the 1g, 2g of Buddhist tradition, people who belong to the Buddisht Tradition try to break of Vedic Tradition, when they realize 7G of Buddhist tradition, they should try to break 1g, 2g of BT. But they don’t do that. becos they respect that as ladder ….why are you going around and breaking everybody else’s hosues ladder? That is why when Buddha happens he conquers all the rishis, all the followers of the VT and establishes the truth. When Shankara comes he conquers all the Buddhists and establishes …Nagarjuna…Vidyaranaya con all nagarjuna buddihst. Means what it is neither Vedic Tradition nor Buddhist Tradition which wins. It is 7 G or 6 G that wins. If you are in 7 g of Buddhist or vedic, or Jainism you win. If you arein 1g, 2g of Buddisht or Vedic or Jainism you lose. The spectrum of consciousness you are decides whether you are going to be a winner or loser. Unfortunately this guys don’t understand this 1g, 2g, 3 g levels of concepts. And sometimes even these pundits who grasp the 7 g concepts intellectually strongly believe fanatically believe all other religions belong to 1g, 2g. they look at all religions like 2g scam. No.
One Islamic preacher I was seeing some of his debates and eiscourses in the T.V. God the amount of poison he is vomiting. See the logic with which he is arguing, I can see very clearly he himself is convinced that all other reli are useless, waste and not only that dangerous. He himself is convinced and vomiting that poison. Unfortunately, some religions do nto teach all traditions, all faiths, all religions has some initial level concepts, has some higher level concepts. Every body in their own way helps evolve hiuman beings to next level. the problem is….they think we are trying to compromise becos we are weak. That is why I started telling aiy only we can raise ppl. Then they tell wow these fellows have strength. Strength is not monopolizing. Strength is living together. These fools need to understand that for monopolizing you don’t need strength you have fear…you are afraid that somebody may kill you so you want to kill everybody before others kill you. That is not strength. It is monopolizing that is out of fear, that is out of suffering, that is out of unconsciousness. Only to live together to give space to everybody to make everybody as part of your life, you need courage, you need intelligence, you need consciousness. To kill everybody you don’t need intelligence. Trying to disturb anybody just because they cannot again kick you back. It is very dangerous, very dangerous! Whether you are in 1g, 2g or 3g or 7g don’t respect the people who are in lower understanding.
Krishna says very beautifully in BG do not disturb anybody’s faith even if you think it is lower you’re your understanding.
Somebody asks Ramana – what is this Bhagawan you should tell people not to worship stones, wood and metal. Bhagawan laughs and says - when you think you are body even though you are not and apply all the sandal on you which is going to become bad smell in the next one hour, why can’t they think that stone is God in the way it is and apply the sandal and at least it will be for one day.
You think…the food which is put in front of your body becomes what you know in one day , and the sandal you apply becomes what in one hour, you know. You think you are body and all the products you apply what happens in one or two hours you know. Snaaniya, paadya, pushpa, Gandha taila, vastra - whatever you do to your body. See the whole day. The moment you wake up brushing and taking bath is snaniya, clothe vastra, perfume you apply Gandha taila - you do everything - what happens to it? At least there. You may say how can stone be God? Then how can stone be outside God? Answer me. Instead of asking how can stone be God, ask how can stone be outside god? No. it can’t be. So in a way they are right. And whatever is put on the stone at least there is as it is. The food they put is given back to you, the sandal you apply gives good smell to you at least for next one day, the flowers stay at least next one day.
So understand. Bhagawan says very beautifully end of his teachings do not disturb anybody’s faith, understanding even if it is small. Because the faith they carry in the initial level if you try to destroy it, they will never reach the next level. the faith they carry in the 1g, 2g level, if you try to destroy it, they will never reach 7g level. it is almost like abortion i have seen when this scandal happened how many ppl had spir abortion. They would have flwered in the next 1 or 2 years but they had spir abortion. And the fellows responsible for this will suffer. All the fellows who are involved in this rumor whoever is done abusal all of them either in prison or wheel chair bound. I can give you the long list because spir abortion is equivalent to Brahmahatya dosha killing a person who has realized Brahman or killing a person, killing a person’s understanding who will become Brahman both are Brahma hatya. Killing a person who realized Brahman and killing a person’s understanding which is going to become a Brahman both are sins. It is spiritual abortion - worst sin. Understand the sacred secret in this sutra – praana is Brahman. All the effects and side effects of praana residing in you, put your awareness into it from the moment you wake up till the moment you sleep. Because Upanishads say very clearly you sleep in praana, you go back to praana, you rest in praana. Don’t think praana is something outside or lower. It is praana in which you rest every day. It is praana from which you come out every day. So praana is the vital power, the energy, the intelligence the experience and life! Praana is Brahman. Brahman is praana! And infusing awareness into all the effects and side effects of praana in your body leads you to establish yourself in Brahman.
Now the thought trend for vaada prativaada how the awareness about the side effects and after effects of praana is going to establish me in praana. Please understand you can argue – if I am establishing into the awareness of effects I may get stuck with that – I may be stuck with the breathing, I may be stuck from the heart movement, I may be stuck with the lungs. Then how can I establish in prana? From, this side you can say if you catch this thread only you can reach there…the khandana mandanais your part it is not my part ☺ the vaada prativaada is your part. But if you do the khandana mandana, the vaada prativaada you will finally come to conclusion. Whatever conclusion you will come thru is always good. ..
Some people will come to the conclusion this is the part to catch the praana or Brahman. Whether you come to conclusion or debate you …do the khandana mandana how it is going to establish yourself in praana. Understand the difference between coming to conclusion or experiencing both the case you are going to be benefitted .it is like just yesterday I was reading a story one guy was asking what is the difference between wine and the poison. The other guy says if you drink wine you will be dancing in front of others, if you drink poison others will be dancing in front of you ☺ In Bharatn villages if you die, they will carry your dead body and dance. If drink wine you will be dancing in front of you. others dance in fron ot you. so anyhow the dance wil happen that’s all. So if you come to the conclusion …or by the vaada prativaada if you get established in the prana then already done what is need to be achieved. So und whether it is coming to conclusion or getting established you are benefitted. So continue the VP how can prana be Brahman, HWO bringing your awareness to the side and after effects of praana will lead you to prana itself. Pl und you cannot become directly aware of praana because it is a happening. For your spectrum the tool with which you perceive things, …you can take cognizance only about the side effect. Physical and mentally what are the effects and side effects happening because of the existence of praana that is the real truth. That is the real life. That is the real praana. So if you bring your awareness to the effects and side effects of prana then naturally you will be established in prana and it will lead to Brahma Jnaana! So do the khandana mandana in this line. You can enter into the eNdebate. eNdebate is now available online on entv.nithyananda.org. I am recving msg that we have recvd lot of responses. I will also go thru and mention the best responses the next day. But I watned at least 10k ppl on each side doing the KM creating the largest debate on internet. 10k from vyasa and 10 ppl from Shankara side becos the whole internet is sanctified. Internet is used by millions of ppl for wrong reasons. 46% of ppl who come to it come for porn. It has become curse for humanity. Now doing the spir debate the endebate by 20k ppl I feel let us sanctify the whole internet, purify the whole internet. It is like doing dosha sudhi homa, parihaara homa for the whole internet itself. Something wrong happens in..
Same way let us purify the internet by doing spir debate on internet. Let us deo endeabte with 10k ppl on each side. So we have 10 k ppl in v and 10 k in S side debating on spri truths
