BEDTIME STORIES AS LIFE LESSONS

THE EPICS - MAHABHARATA  &  RAMAYANA   

 

THE LIGHT WITHIN ME - THE ENERGY OF SOUL

The mythological epic of Ramayana can be interpreted for the modern troubled human beings as follows too. 
 

‘Ra’ means light, ‘Ma’ means within me, in my heart. So, Rama means, the Light Within Me. This is the exact description of the energy of a SOUL - effulgent & luminous.
 

TAME YOUR WILD HORSES OF SENSES SKILLFULLY

Rama was born to King Dasharath & Queen Kousalya.
 

Dasharath means ‘Ten horse Chariot’ The ten horses symbolize the five sense organs for importing in - touch, smell, taste, hear, sight & five organs of action for exporting out - moving, grasping, speaking, reproducing, elimination.  The chariot represents the human body as a disposable  costume.
 

Kousalya means ‘Skill’ The skillful driver of the ten horse chariot only,  can give birth to Rama,  with a  soul whose light always shines from within. Radiance is born within, when the ten wild horses  are tamed skillfully with complete mastery of thought control. 
 

ABSENCE OF ALL INNER CONFLICT - TOTAL HARMONY 

Prince Rama was born in Ayodhya. Ayodhya means a place where no war can take place, not even a minor battle. It is implying  to  No Inner Conflict In the Mind. A harmonious, peaceful, lovefull, Blissful mind achieved through Contentment & Meditative living.  
 

MORAL SCIENCE FOR THE GROWING CHILD - UNFORGETTABLE STORY 

The Ramayana is not just a story which happened long ago. It has deep  philosophical, spiritual significance & an eternal TRUTH revealed through  it.  Ramayana is happening in everyone's lives. In reality Ramayana is a constant phenomenon of the  Copper & Iron Ages. There was no need for Ramayana in the Silver Age of Rama & his beautiful, devoted wife Sita.
 

RESCUING YOUR MIND FROM YOUR OWN EGO

Your Soul is Rama  & Your Mind is Sita. Your Breath or Life-Force (Prana) is Hanuman & your Awareness is Laxmana. Your Ego is Ravana.

When the Mind (Sita), is abducted,  overpowered & imprisoned  by the Ego (Ravana), then the Soul (Rama) gets lonely & restless.  Now the Soul (Rama) cannot reach the Mind (Sita) on its own & rescue it from Ravana.  It has to take the help of the Breath – the Prana (Hanuman, Rama's devotee & monkey God) by Being In Awareness(Laxmana, Rama's brother.)
 

THE REUNITING OF THE ABDUCTED MIND WITH THE SOUL

The Mind (Sita) can be reunited with The Soul (Rama) with the help of constant Awareness of the Intellect & by maintaining Breath control in meditative state. These two agencies Hanuman & Laxmana help vanquish & kill the devil of Ego (Ravana) thus freeing the Mind & help unite with the Soul. And they lived happily, there after, as every story goes/ends.

MAHABHARATA WAR - TO FIGHT OR NOT TO FIGHT PREDICAMENT 

The Pandavas were in two minds before the start of the war.  Arjuna did not want to fight & kill his own cousins. There were no Gods, no incarnations of Vishnu, neither Krishna, nor Rama during this degraded period of Dwapar Yuga. Therefore the depiction & presence of Godly Krishna as Arjuna's  Charioteer & adviser is a concocted fantasy by the writers of this Epic. The so called sermon which contains the essence of Hinduism has been inserted on purpose & forms the  GITA portion of the Epic.

However the Original Bhagvad GITA was spoken, never written, by Supreme Soul, Shiva during the Confluence Age to HIS student Brahmins, the Brahma Kumaris & kumars at Mt. Abu . This faint memory of God like Shiva speaking the teachings of GITA has been reenacted / borrowed for the benefit of the mankind in the Epic. Stories were then written to create Ideals & inspire  the people to follow them. 

THE CORE OF BHAGVAD GITA

The key elements contained in the GITA are summarized for your benefit. 

Do your duty / Karam joyfully by detaching from its outcome. 

Detach yourself from all luxuries & desires to perform activities as HIS instrument.  

The eternal soul changes its perishable costume / body upon death. Therefore be flexible & adaptable in this temporary world.

Manage your anger which has a downward chain reaction to delusion, confused memory, destruction of reason leading to your annihilation.

Knowledge is wrapped in several layers of desires. Rip open the wrappers to get to the core of Gyan.  

FACTUAL HISTORY OR FANTASY FOR POSTERITY

At this time period of Golden & Silver Ages the technology of ink & paper did not exist. There were no books or libraries for the rulers & public. Instead they had professional STORY TELLERS. Therefore every thing important was framed up in Sanskrit language as Shlokas, two lined verses / poems.  They are also called by another name - MNEMONIC RECITALS. These poems were recited & retold hundreds of times like our modern Nursery Rhymes & passed on to the next generations till the era of ink & paper arrived. They fell into the category of LISTENING & RECITING, which is labeled as language SPEAKING proficiency.  Now these professional story tellers collectively sat down & attempted to  write down the memorized poems / verses in bits & pieces, half truth half fantasy. At this point they had to elevate themselves to fully honed language proficiency of READING & WRITING, which did not happen over night.  The daring ones would take a calculated risk to alter the history  by adding his-story, and who would know the right from the wrong, the truth from the false. This is how our Epics evolved, from Oral compositions in the head for many many centuries, to the final piece meal written down versions, by half literate apprentices.  God help the posterity.  

THE ESSENCE OF THE GYATRI MANTRA  FOR ALL SOULS 

The life force Prana, is the destroyer of all mishaps & miseries,

It provides bliss & amenities,

God almighty is self effulgent, the Creator, who inspires us.

Therefore cultivate complete trust in Him & become worthy of His adoption.

Take refuge in Him by seeking full surrender.

Direct your speech & actions towards Self & be in constant communion with Him

Banish all your ignorance, sins & imbibe all His aspects very deeply.

You were born to achieve Super Consciousness so Help yourself & not the usual scape-goat phrase HELP ME GOD.

THE WHOLE TRUTH, NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH

The fact of the matter is, that the actual chronological order of the HISTORY is as follows.  SHIVA, UGLY KRISHNA AS LEKH RAJ KRIPLANI - a diamond merchant, transformed into BRAHMA, BRAHMIN CLAN, the BKs of Mt. ABU, VISHNU, BEAUTIFUL KRISHNA, DESTRUCTION OF OLD WORLD, DYNASTY OF NARAYAN & LAKSHMI, DYNASTY OF RAMA & SITA, FOLLOWED BY RAVANA & MAYA & rest of the humanity. Go figure, how Rama & Ravana got together in the same time period in the story. Rama dynasty flourished in the Silver Age while Ravana ruled in the Copper Age. The purpose of such stories was to convey a strong unforgettable message to the public gone astray from their original path of purity & righteousness, as is happening today.  See you again in the next cycle dear Soul.

Rohit Khanna - IN-VISIBLE & IN-CARNATE

WILL YOU BE DYING UNWILLINGLY OR EXITING LIFE KNOWINGLY

DYING UNWILLINGLY OR EXITING LIFE KNOWINGLY

Just Doodling - do not take it seriously, on second thought take it.

The only purpose of arriving into life, is to acquire the art of graceful exit. 

THE BELIEF OF IMMORTALITY MAKES US CARELESS & ARROGANT

All beliefs are baseless & false. It is superfluous to qualify the word BELIEF with an adjective. We believe in mambo jumbo because basically we are afraid & cowards to admit that we do not know the unknown. We all are living passive lives, with a laid-back attitude, which holds us back from venturing out to explore & seek what we do not know. This half alive, never ending pace stems from total ignorance & unawareness on our part. We live our lives as if we are never going to die, fully convinced to the core. Eventually we do die, having never really lived. This realization dawns on us, when it is too late to reverse the tables / topsoil.

PARADISE - THE LAND OF DIVINE LIKE BEINGS.

Everyone has to become PURE - choose to become through power of Yoga & remembrance now, or else you will be force-ably made PURE through punishment & low status further on. Death is inevitable, therefore why not get prepared for it & enjoy that beautiful last moment gracefully & knowingly.

Death is when life decides to leave, respect it - 24 minutes lapse time - Full life is fast forwarded for your benefit.

If sorrowful & unaware at that moment then next birth - terrifying, miserable

If happily aware & conscious at that moment then next birth is - happiness, enjoyable.

Therefore practice now the art of DYING ALIVE.  A full un-dress rehearsal. The soul is discarding this decayed costume - in full consciousness, gladly.  

Reforming, refining, re-wring, & re-working on self is good transformation. Blossom into newness without a trace of the old.

Defining DEATH / process of EXITING - It is the process of separation of the subtle body of consciousness from the gross physical body. It happens under two circumstances: Either the physical body breaks down for various reasons or the consciousness has realized itself & absolved all its karmas, then in both cases it has to leave the body. When death approaches one should lie on the right side like Buddha with head held high on the right hand.

KARMA is the glue which holds the consciousness & the body together in a being. KARMIC DEBT is the glue which holds the numerous relationships together of all beings. Woman wants to experience life while man wants to understand life.

When we die, our breathing ceases, the decomposing body is discarded, our possessions are taken by others. All we retain is KARMIC IMPRINTS.

VARIOUS WAYS OF DYING DEPENDING UPON THE PURITY OF CONSCIOUSNESS - The effort put into knowing & realizing the self.

SUPER REALIZED beings die without leaving their gross bodies behind, instantaneous combustion, to achieve rainbow subtle bodies for travel onwards to next high-level rebirth. Such beings immediately recognize the clear light, exactly like a son jumping into his mother’s lap, of Primordial Purity.

YOGIS die in three ways with full confidence & no preparation: Like a child with no plans, or like a beggar with no fixed place, or like a lion in wilderness all alone. These beings too can choose a high-level rebirth.

THE AVERAGE being dies in an elaborate way, with just one choice to enter a low-level rebirth.

The five elements dissolve one by one & disappear.

Next the subtle energies in the chakras & the winds in the three channels dissolve & evaporate.  

Followed by the experiences of three radiance's which flash before the consciousness in quick succession at the end of which, all 80 contamination of Sanskars / seeds cease. Currently very subtle energy of consciousness is ready to recognize the true nature of the mind & its base luminosity, as a go ahead signal to leave the body through any of the openings. Having failed to recognize the clear light, these beings fall back into the cycle of fear & ignorance, which generates the corresponding elements conducive for low level rebirth, eternally.  

DISSOLUTION OF THE FIVE ELEMENTS OF GROSS BODY

Each of the five elements support the consciousness. As they dissolve one by one consciousness loses all its support.

The EARTH element in the Apana stage represents mass, solidity & foundation of bones, muscles & skin located at the navel chakra. The dying person is unable to eliminate wastes & starts to weaken, with feelings negativity & being buried under an avalanche. The green color dissolves into water. The internal imagery is of shimmering mirage.

The WATER element in the Vyana stage represents the fluidity & continuity in full body, located at the heart chakra. Paleness, thirst, fear & confusion sets in. There is loss of sensory faculties coupled with a feeling of rushing river. The orange color dissolves into fire. The internal image is of swirling smoke & haze.

The FIRE element in the Samana stage represents the warmth of blood & radiance, located in the navel chakra. The body cools down, metabolism stops with loss of appetite. The yellow color dissolves into air. The internal image is of shimmering red sparks from volcano.

The AIR element in the Prana stage represents the life force & dynamism of the body, located at the 3rd eye chakra. The breathing is glamour & difficult. In breaths are short & out breaths are long. Total loss of sensory aspects & bewildered. The red color dissolves into space. The internal image is of blown away like a leaf in a storm.

The SPACE element in the Udana stage represents the speech & communication aspect located in the throat chakra. Nervous & motor systems are lost & paralysis sets in. Decomposition of body begins. The blue color dissolves into clear light. The internal image is of falling apart.  

DISSOLUTION OF THE MENTAL BODY & SUBTLE ENERGIES

The white HANG shaped dot / bindu descends towards the heart like a RADIANCE of white moon sinking in the Sky. This contains 33 sanskars of anger inherited from the father.

Simultaneously, the red, AH flame shaped dot / bindu starts to ascend towards the heart like a RADIANCE of red sun rising from the Earth. This contains 40 sanskars of passion inherited from the mother. Finally, these two dots meet to form a black dot, in the heart, like the merging of the earth & sky. This black dot contains 7 sanskars of stupidity.

Eventually the three channels & all the chakras collapse & evaporate. Now the dying person becomes unconscious & tears roll down. This is the Space element dissolving into clear luminosity. This clear light of emptiness dissolves into wisdom of union which further dissolves into PRIMORDIAL PURITY.

At this moment all 80 sanskars cease to function, but do not dissolve. These are the KARMIC IMPRINTS that the consciousness carries froward to the next birth. They are the evil influences of disturbing emotions of mind poisons - Ego clinging & Ignorance.

It is encapsulated in the indestructible drop in the heart chakra. Chitta, the pure Intelligence is also located in the heart region.

The MIND ESSENCE / NATURE or CONSCIOUSNESS can now leave /exit the body through many openings. The RECOGNITION of this mind nature at this point leads to temporary liberation & personal choice of PALACE OF A WOMB for elevated rebirth. The average soul fails to recognize the pure nature / clear light & is therefore threatened by three ABYSSES of mind poisons. Pitch black abyss of stupidity, Deep black abyss of aggression, & Vast black abyss of desire. This is the MIRROR OF KARMA or judgement day & the signal to proceed to the assigned JAIL OF WOMB to start average life again.  Happy journey dear friend.

ATTITUDE OF REVERENCE TOWARDS SELF & OTHERS

You are 70% water & 130 % attitude - what is your attitude towards others & the water inside of you. Water allows agility of Intelligence.

Ancient people stored water in Copper Alloy vessel with a lamp & a flower on top.

Lesson is of reverence, is to be picked up here.

This turnover is a re-turn of HIS love.

BLIND FAITH IN SENSELESS BELIEFS

Ignorance endorsed by heaven is faith - go figure.

Faith freezes your mind. Stupid Beliefs block you & prevent you from seeking higher dimensions.

God fearing has become a virtue, which is now a socially accepted phenomenon

Suffering is physical, fear of suffering is mental.

Laziness + sleepiness + carelessness + Complaining = slander without substance

If you believe in paradise then, should we send you there.

Believing that this Vessel is ME is Insanity. It has become a socially accepted Insanity.

Insanity is crossing the line. Getting angry, going mad then a little gap coming back. One day no coming back - asylum. Mentally ill, physically ill, clinically ill.  

Incentive to fall sick - good hospitals, free health care.

The child learns that by faking illness he gets attention.

It must the opposite rather, it pays to be TRUTHFUL & JOYFUL. Parents & schools to note.

Chronic ailments are self-enforced. Not in ease = disease. Selectively going the medicine route

Responsible way of living is being in Health not a patient. Good reasons to live miserably

LIFE IS A GAME OF KARMAS - plus / minus scoring

Karma is everywhere - create a distance between you & it. An external you is needed

When karma is performed with awareness then you settle your account, when performed without awareness you add up into your account. Conscious choice vs compulsive choice

Karma - has 4 dimensions: physical, mental, emotional, energy

99 % of the actions are accidental all the time. Making sense out of life is in your hands

Life is a game till the end. Scoring is in karmas. Stop scoring.

Life is your making through actions / karmas which have consequences - servo mechanism

Life vs survival - with the help of 5 senses, this method is hopeless. You need Intelligence for life

Life span is 1008 moon cycles = 84 years.

How life happens - happy / unhappy

The beating of your heart is happening, you are not making it happen

Intensity of life is important

Transfigure higher life

YOU ARE ALWAYS ON MY MIND

Allow the universe to invade you. Next Exude Grace, charm, easiness, sweetness.

In the friction of life, HIS Grace is the lubricant.

Do not impose your will - cosmic will is already in place & play. You do not stand a chance at all.

You are the transmitter of energy - higher energy to you & then to others.

Me is my space - most beautiful. Import only the best of the best.

Dharma = inner nature, law of nature.

Be involved but untouched by life / not identified with matter = success

LIVING IN AWARENESS

Food ingesting becomes you the living you. Eating depends upon your occupation

Do not eat any animal which has emotions. It will be difficult to integrate into your system

Integrity of life - complete in self, helps you not to be attracted to / influenced by others.

Eye is corrupted with memory. Cannot see the way it is. You need a third eye free of thought

Cocoon of past memory - safety or prison.

Stupid things cause suffering therefore to stop. Constipated = full of shit.

Suffering - life must make a point. It does not tell

Every moment moves from untruth/poison to truth

Misery - I must do it.  Happiness - I want to do it.

Sexual interaction - huge exchange. Lack of touch in childhood, now longs for touching others.

It brings pleasure / gratification but not easy uncomplicated joy.  

Exuberance + equanimity = Sanskrity way of life. Raise your level of exuberance/intoxication.

Relax makes you lax, Intensity makes you tense. Light the spark of ecstasy. 

SADGURU IS HIS MESSENGER TOO

Physical competence is different for everyone

Inner possibility is equal for all beings. Unlimited disinterest & attitude will bring pure wishes.

It is your exam about the unlimited - that which is not.

Intellectually realized - stable but not ecstatic.

Seeds / sanskars are the residual memory which has an unconscious tendency to move / erupt

Again & again. It is akin to Vasana / bad smell which is always there & continues to linger on forever.

Being human is super person. Breathing is an unbroken string of Inhalation & exhalation.

Average devotion is making losing dumb deals with the creator - leads to exclusion.

Real devotion is emotion - tool for divinity. Become the hand of divine. Please use me.

Yoga is part of divine = companionship. Color yourself in HIS color of divinity.

Stay beyond the current of the river water - no pulling is possible then.

HE MAKES MY EYES SHINE & MY HEART SMILE

Smile is a curve which sets everything straight
