The Vedas specifically speak of three worlds: Prithivi, the earth; Antariksha, the sky; Dyaus, the celestial region. On earth, matter is all. In the sky, divine activity is lil. In Heaven, sentience is all.

Sri Chinmoy

 

[talwan]

Ekam sat vipra babudha vadanti

Truth-existence is one.

Sages call it by various names.

Sri Chinmoy on Vedas

 

[talwan]

Light is the birth of God.

Delight is the life of God.

Light is the smile of universal Oneness.

Delight is the smile of transcendental Perfection.

Light is what God has.

Delight is what God is.

Sri Chinmoy

 

[talwan]

Rig Veda speaks of God the Power:

Twam Indra balad adhi sahaso jata ojasah . . .

O God, the existence rests on strength, valour and energy.

O Mighty One, You are Strength itself.

In order to manifest God considerably on earth, the seeker must live a long life.

Aum bhadram karnebhih srinuyam deva. . .

O cosmic gods, may we hear with our ears what is good and auspicious.

May we see with our eyes what is good and auspicious…

But merely living a long life lacking in divinity is nothing short of stark ignorance.

The Song of the Infinite
The Vedas are the most ancient scriptures in the library of consciously evolving
humanity. For our own conscious evolution we may be inspired to read the
Vedas by Max Müller’s encouragement: “I maintain that everybody who
cares for himself, for his ancestors, for his history, for his intellectual
development, a study of Vedic literature is indispensable.

 

[talwan]

The Vedic commandment for the human mind is Satyam. Satyam means truth or
truthfulness. Truthfulness in the mind and truthfulness of the mind alone
can lead us to a higher life, a life of illumining Divinity and fulfilling
Immortality.

 

[talwan]

The WIsdom-Sun of Vedic Truth
When we study the Vedas we should be aware of two different things: the esoteric interpretations of the Vedas made by illumined spiritual Masters, and the mental conclusions made by scholars and historians. Each esoteric interpretation by a Master is founded upon a direct intuitive vision of the Truth, whereas each mental conclusion of a scholar or historian is founded upon unillumined mental analysis and hesitant, uncertain research.

Character is what one is, Reputation is what general people
think about him.

It is very difficult to find a good and trustworthy friend and in turn
it is too impossible to lose him and forget him also. As time may come
and go, friends too may come and go but enemies do not disappear
unless thrown out.

# 141. மனத்துக்கு ஒளி.

பஞ்சதசி பத்தாவது அத்யாயத்தில் வித்யாரண்யர் அரங்கில் வைக்கப்பட்ட ஒரு விளக்கை உதாரணமாகக் காட்டுகிறார்.

நாடகம் நடக்கும் போது நடிகர், அரசர், வேலைக்காரர், நடனம் ஆடுபவர் என்ற வேறுபாடு இன்றி அந்த ஒளி இருக்கிறது.

நாடகம் நடக்கும் முன்பும், நடக்கும் போதும், நடந்த பின்னும் அவ்வொளி அங்கு உண்டு. அது மனத்துக்கு ஒளி தரும் அழியாத ஒன்றாம்.

"Love is not a thing to understand.
Love is not a thing to feel.
Love is not a thing to give and receive.
Love is a thing only to become
And eternally be. "​

- Sri Chinmoy

 

[talwan]

Love is an endless mystery,
for it has nothing else to explain it.​

​

Love's gift cannot be given,
it waits to be accepted.
​

Rabindranath Tagore

 

[talwan]

Love is the scent with the lotus born.
It is the silent choirs of petals
Singing the winter’s harmony of uniform beauty.
Love is the song of the soul, singing to God.
It is the balanced rhythmic dance of planets - sun and moon lit​

- Paramahansa Yoganada

 

[talwan]

Love knows no answer for it does not question."

[talwan]

Though I am never loath to grant salvation,
I hesitate indeed to grant pure love.
Whoever wins pure love surpasses all;
He is adored by men;
He triumphs over the three worlds.. - Sri Ramakrisna

 

[talwan]

"Diverse courses of worship
from varied springs of fulfillment
have mingled in your meditation.
The manifold revelation of the joy of the Infinite
has given form to a shrine of unity in your life
where from far and near arrive salutations
to which I join my own."​

- Rabindranath Tagore on Sri Ramakrishna

 

[talwan]

"Sri Ramakrishna was completely beyond the average run of men. He appears rather to belong to the tradition of the great rishis of India, who have come from time to time to turn our attention to the higher things of life and of the spirit."
- Jawaharlal Nehru

 

[talwan]

"With these words the Master sang in the sweet voice that had bewitched the hearts of devotees like Keshab: The devotees felt as if they were in paradise itself.

" Dive deep O mind,
dive deep in the ocean of God's Beauty;
If you descend to the uttermost depths,
There you will find the gem of Love...."​

From the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna
​

 

[talwan]

"Do you know what I see? I see Him as all. Men and other creatures appear to me only as hollow forms, moving their heads and hands and feet, but within is the Lord Himself."
Sri Ramakrisna

 

[talwan]

"Many are the names of God and infinite the forms through which He may be approached."
Sri Ramakrisna

# 142. விலகி இருக்க முடியுமா?

நனவைக் காட்டிலும் தூக்கத்தில் தூய உணர்வுக்கு அருகில் இருக்கிறோம் என்று கூறுவது சரியன்று. நனவு, கனவு, உறக்கம் ஆகிய எல்லாமே ஆத்மாவின் மீது நிகழும் வெறும் செயல்பாடுகள். மேலும் அது விழிப்புணர்வு மட்டுமே தோன்றும் நிலை. யாராவது ஆத்மாவிலிருந்து விலகி இருக்க முடியுமா?

Quotable quotes

Sometimes past incidents of our own life flashes before our eyes. Let us not
neglect it or set it aside and it is worth watching.

[Visalakshi Ramani]

# 143. வேறுபாடு இல்லை.

கனவிற்கும், நனவிற்கும் இடையே வேறுபாடே இல்லை.

நனவு கனவைக் காட்டிலும் நீண்டிருப்பதால்

அதை உண்மை என்று நினைக்கின்றோம்.

Positive thinking do bring a positive attitude, brings strength, energy and
initiative.
