What did Nisargadatta Maharaj mean when he said, "The clearer you understand that on the level of the mind you can be described in negative terms only, the quicker you will come to the end of your search and realize your limitless being."? #Spirituality #enlightenment
Silence, stillness, peace, being, clarity, freedom, bliss, awareness, the Self, the Absolute.
Look close, and you’ll see they’re all negative terms.
Silence is the negation of sound.
Stillness is the negation of activity.
Peace is the negation of agitation.
Being is the negation of doing.
Clarity is the negation of confusion. #Spirituality #enlightenment
Freedom is the negation of constraint.
Bliss is the negation of reactivity.
Awareness is the negation of dreaming and distraction.
The Self is the negation of otherness and alienation.
The Absolute is the negation of contingency. #Spirituality #enlightenment
The solution is to have a little infidelity toward the problem.
Is it not utterly stuck in duality to designate some experience as “illusory” and other experience as “consciousness”? True Non dual view would seem to need to be present everywhere, both in I and not I. #Spirituality
Non duality cannot be spoken/talked about, because the moment there are two “I’s,” or even just one “I” talking about any experience (whether labeled ‘illusory or ‘consciousness,’) or concluding what would be the ‘true non-dual view,’ “you” are right back in duality again.
Non-duality has no view. And is actually not ‘present’ anywhere, since its Nothing appearing as Everything.
It can't be discussed, heard, grasped, known or understood & any pointing to it or discussion about it, no matter how clear, is non-applicable to being in non-duality.
Why the majority of spiritual people go to gurus to get Moksha which is only a belief because the soul in this state merges in God and the person can not come back to tell his tale but only few try to meet with God which is reality & is describable? #Spirituality
is good to have a sincere and enlightened Guru, one who takes us from “Gu” darkness, to "Ru" light. A Guru cannot give Moksha; a Guru can only show us the path. #Spirituality
The enlightened master can only share his enlightenment, his realization, his experience and therefore, just to go after a famous or popular Guru, like a herd, is not going to get us enlightenment or Nirvana or Moksha. How will our Soul become one with God? #Spirituality
According to Hinduism, why did God create man?
Creation of Man i.e. Adam is a Abrahamic concept. #Spirituality
Male, female, neuter - nature of all biological beings & humankind is part of biological nature. In Hinduism we never ask why did God create humans? (as if we are the sole purpose of creation as in Abrahamic religions!), the question should be : why did God create the universe?
Verb “create” is problematic for us as is the noun “God.”
As per Hindu logic creation means making something from raw materials. One can't create something from nothing! A logical impossibility!
So for a Supreme Person to have created a real world, there are only 2 options:
Please do not fall for fancy non-dualist theories that you need to do nothing. Please do not flatter yourselves. You will reach nowhere except that you will be imagining yourself to be enlightened. #Spirituality #Enlightenment
And when reality strikes which will, you would have done lots of psychological damage to yourselves.
Please Beware!!!!
You must put effort in negating all that which is making your self-reflection, vichara & dhyana difficult. #Spirituality #Enlightenment
As far as Yantras are concerned, myths abound. Time to bust them, offer clarity. #Vedicastrology #astrology
Myth 1: Yantras can solve any problem
Fact: Yantras can help solve any issue when rightly used with a mantra. Yantra isnt' the only solution or remedy for your specific situation, there are other remedies available based on your kundali. #Vedicastrology #astrology
However, many people feel lazy to do remedies, or don't have time for it, or are not serious about following remedies, for them the easier way is yantra. #Vedicastrology #astrology
