    Adi Shankara's Bhaja Govindam


    Be sure to click on more on u tube version--this gives a translation of the Sanskrit words.
    As an aside Sanskrit written and spoken is many thousand years old --one of the most precise complex languages.
    I suspect it came from an advanced civilization--pre ice age--certainly not invented by hunter gatherers.

    Oh, here's a lovely short five minute video from the Advaita Vedantic position with regards to HOW our "true nature" is within each of "us" right now, and I'd suggest that all that is needed to reveal "it" is to look inwards eh ?

    Quote :
    Quote There's a saying that says the one who ignores the God in one's own Heart and looks for God outside is like the person who throws away a gem in the palm of his hand and looks for imitation jewellery in shops outside !!!

    A song about the delightful nature of the Sanskrit Language

    This is what it means:

    "The Language of the gods is beautiful, this is a beautiful garland of Vedas and beautiful sayings, it is the origin of 100 scriptures and sutras, great Rishis thought it, and the nature of this language is such that it appeals to the heart of the people. It is divine and blossomed here, it is incomparable like the gods, praised in the three worlds, it is the greatness of India, and in the world its greatness arose, it is very sacred, it is immeasurable, blessed with all good qualities, respected by all scholars and one should serve it for one's welfare"

    Be kind to all life, including your own, no matter what!!

    Awakening Kundalini Energy | Kundalini Activation Process

    What you see in this video is very similar to what happened on Guruji's ashram on a three week intensive.
    I was K awakened spontaneously before going on the intensive.

    The video still plays

    Mystic math and the decryption of God's icon

    Quote A vortex is most commonly defined as a mass of whirling fluid, gas, or air, especially a whirlpool or whirlwind, in which the flow rotates around an axis line. Math is often defined as the science of numbers, quantities, and shapes and the relationship between them. So, Vortex based mathematics can be described as a new way of understanding numbers, not just as mere quantities, but where each has its own unique quality, archetype, and behavior. https://atlanteangardens.blogspot.com...

    This non-linear holistic view of math was also revered by none other than Nikola Tesla, who famously stated that, “If you knew the magnificence of the three, six and nine, you would have a key to the universe.” Tesla believed that numbers, especially 3,6,9, had extreme importance, and so did the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras, who around 500 BC was famously quoted as saying, "All is number".

    Alternative forms of advanced mathematics have been found etched on Babylonian clay tablets dating back several millennia. Similar concepts have been popularized in modern times by Marco Rodin, after whom the Rodin Coil was named. A toroid is a surface of revolution with a hole in the middle, like a doughnut, forming a solid body. Some claim further scientific research and use can lead to free energy, space travel, time travel, genetic manipulation, toroidal healing therapy, and even a "spiritual" based technology that may improve conditions for life on the planet.

    In front of some intelligence,
    the game of existence is being acted out.
    But there is an indescribable seeing place
    beyond and behind every manifestation,
    beyond all ideation—culture, religion, politics,
    spirituality, morality, idealism, race and gender.
    Can it be denied?
    Is it not intuitively and subjectively known?
    Can it be objectively perceived?
    Who or what hears, knows or receives
    this understanding?
    Seek, contemplate, and confirm.

    Wind Im ever grateful for your posts.
    Im spending a lot of time on meditating and have found that my desire to do many things has greatly decreased.
    I have intention in the morning to do this and that but find that I am drawn to meditate instead.
    Its down to what is really important to me at this time--everything else is secondary--even posting here.
    There is not a burning desire for Self- Realization or for mediation--it just happens.
    Me meditate four hours a day--you must be joking--but that's whats happening--weird

    Much love
    Chris

    The End of the Game: Deconstructing the Portals to the Absolute

    The End of the Game: Deconstructing the Portals to the Absolute” is the final YouTube of Stephen Wolinsky, (Narayan). The "End of the Game" dismantles not only the portal of light, sound, and vibration, but also emptiness, void, stillness-silence witnessing, non-duality, vibration, energy or shakti, being(ness), the I Am, the deity, consciousness and awareness.

    "The End of the Game" demonstrates that portals are pleasant experiences which are appearances. However they are merely temporary stations, appearances that appear to appear, layers which, if identified with, or believed in become traps.

    The Absolute (Prior to the word Absolute), can also be referred to as
    "The Great Without", does not have, knows nothing about, and is without the portals or states of light, sound, emptiness, energy, vibration, the deity, consciousness or awareness, being(ness), the I Am and stillness.

    The last part of the YouTube points to rarely mentioned appearances that appear to appear and which are temporary states of mind that ultimately evaporate. In "The End of the Game” the appearance of the Witness, Aware-er, Know-er, Perceive-er, Attention-er, Consciousness-er etc. are shown to also be temporary states that come and go.
    .
    Moreover, as long as the silent witness, aware-er, know-er, perceive-er, attention-er, the consciousness-er etc. are present the game continues and the Absolute, (Prior to the word Absolute), will remain a distant conceptual goal.

    The Absolute, a.k.a. "The Great Without", is without the appearance of Portals as well as the appearance of the Witness, the know-er, the aware-er, the observer, the Perceive-er, the attention-er, the consciousness-er etc..

    As Nisargadatta Maharaj would say, the Absolute is “Prior to Consciousness.”

    Finally as you read or listen to the book or You Tube please keep tucked away somewhere:

    “All that is heard, (or that is about to be read seen or heard) is non-existent.” Shankara

    One Love
    Your Mirage brother,
    Stephen-Narayan

    It's not by choice, SHIVA forcefully invaded my life - Sadhguru about Adiyogi

    - I am not a devotee of Shiva. I am not a Shiva Bhakt.
    He kind of forcefully invaded my life
    -this sound started happening from within me like a rasp.
    -it's not by choice I started saying these things and doing what I am doing. I'm just a slave.
    -your entire life is, a virtual reality because you are seeing life only the way it happens in your mind.
    -you have a virtual reality going.
    -even what is light and darkness is just your reality.
