TIME LINE OF THE UNIVERSE - Significance of the Golden Sparrow

THE HISTORY & GEOGRAPHY OF THE UNIVERSE 

God is just a catalyst - not part of the process

EARTHLY SYSTEMS ARE ETERNAL

The mighty Earth is a gigantic spinning ball of Iron & rock. The inner most & outer most layers are solid while the two intermediate layers are liquid. The center of Our Earth is a big ball of solid iron which twists & turns with the momentum of the swirling molten Iron around it. It is further speed-ed up by the non stop movement of the molted rock / mantle / lava pushing over this layer of molten iron.The cooled down top most layer is the Earths crust which we inhabit. Sometimes this layer will give us the glimpses of the molten rocky bed of ours by shooting out of the weak spots. We have named such tourist spots as Volcanoes.

SCULPTURING THE GEOGRAPHY OF PARADISE - BHARTA

The imminent global warming assists the melting of the polar ice, which causes the rise in the water levels of the oceans, submerging most of the continents & all the remaining land masses of the world, thus washing away the remaining old impure world. It appears to have vanished from the face of the planet. This is the silent method of the Creator to help sculpture the the most fertile piece of land for His promised Paradise, to His devotees, Brahmin students & soul conscious beings. This lone minor continent lying snugly between the mighty Himalayas & the Majestic Indian Ocean, is aptly named as GOLDEN SPARROW. The soul conscious divine beings of this land were known as Hindus, who lived peacefully,happily all by themselves for long 2500 years.  

  

THE SHIFTING POLARITY OF EARTHS MAGNETIC AXIS & ITS TILT

The axial tilt of our mighty Earth is 23.5 degrees to the right from the vertical. It is this tilt & the non stop spinning that provides the fundamental swirling action to the solid iron ball which REORIENTS its position from time to time exactly like the fetus in the womb of its mother. This solid iron ball is responsible for the magnetic polar axis, which is always on the move, in a clockwise direction. From vertical to horizontal in a span of 1250 years, and again back to vertical from horizontal in another span of 1250 years. This time the poles are reversed. The North pole ends up in the South & vice-verse. The same thing is repeated twice more to finish the cycle of 5000 years, where we started.  

PURITY OF ENVIRONMENT IS LINKED TO MAGNETIC POLARITY.

The Earths magnetic polarity & its position decides the PURITY of the surroundings, the vegetation, the sense of equanimity of the animals & humans towards each other as well as the environment.  The Golden Age Paradise, on Earth starts when the Magnetic poles are Horizontal facing East, for the first time. During this Utopian period the benevolent Earth flowers on its own with exotic fruits, vegetables, metals like gold & silver. Farming & mining as we know it is totally absent & alien to their inhabitants. This is followed by the Silver Age when the Magnetic axis moves downwards, facing South. Next we have the Copper Age, followed by the most degraded Iron Age. At this time everything has turned old, worn out, impure, polluted & Vicious.

THE TILT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FOUR SEASONS TOO

The axial tilt of the Earth of 23.5 degrees to the right is additionally responsible for the four seasons in all of the four ages, due to the influence of the Sun & solar heat impinging on the surface of the Earth while it travels around the Sun. The duration & quality of the four seasons varies in each of the four ages. The Golden & Silver ages have long extended spring & fall seasons coupled with short & very mild summers & winters. What else would one expect in a Paradise.    

FINE TUNING THE CREATION BY THE CREATOR HIMSELF

At the end of this Kali-Yuga God Himself has to intervene as a Catalyst only to reset the Eternal Cycle once again. This short period is called the Confluence Age, when HE gathers is long lost children, gives them Divine Knowledge & Truth to sharpen their stone dead Intellects, & helps them to become PURE & DIVINE like Himself. With the help from this small group, HIS starter kit, of earnest hardworking, effort making souls, HE enables the transformation of the entire humanity. Raja Yoga is the chief tool employed for total transformation of the Impure Brahmin souls to become SOUL CONSCIOUS from BODY CONSCIOUS states.

PLANTING OF THE HUMAN SEED

Raja means King & Yoga means union. This method of purification is taught by the KING HIMSELF during this time period of Confluence Age & at no other time. Therefore connect to the King directly & receive all the Divine jewels of Virtues. In order to instruct us in the language that we will understand HE takes a Pure body/chariot on loan. This happens to be the Body of KRISHNA who is an ordinary human, in his last 84 th birth on this planet. This average person is just an instrument for the Creator & NOT A MIDDLE MAN as we would understand with our limited DEVOTIONAL mentality. The Supreme Soul is just a potent energy, & to communicate with us human beings HE would definitely need the help of HUMAN ORGANS of speech. If HE were to enter any other Impure unknown body, it would disintegrate instantaneously, because of the level of PURITY of the Supreme Soul. 

THE ORIGIN OF HINDUS IS DEFINED BY GEOGRAPHY OF THE LAND

The people of Britain are known as British. The natives of Europe are called Europeans. On the same lines the natives who flourished in the land lying between the HIND SAGAR ( Indian Ocean ) & THE HIMALAYAS were termed as HINDUS. Gradually this very territory was renamed as Hindustan, the land of Hindus. 

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE GOLDEN SPARROW

Gold is in itself something that makes most of us happy. Its influence on the wearers health and life are more important than a fashion statement that it portrays when worn for display. Anytime you feel slightly stressed or depressed, you can always open up the Jwellery Chest & feel the positive rich vibrations to motivate you in this low state. Gold is believed to have a relaxing effect on the wearer. In India & many other parts of the world, Jwellery is made with 22 carat gold. The feel of pure gold is beyond words. It loses its effectiveness when combined & diluted to 14 carat with other metals. Gold is a great de-stressor. Since ancient times gold has been possessed for sense of security, up lifting your mental attitudes, emotional states & SELF ESTEEM.

Gold is never consumed. Gold changes shape & hands, but its quantity remains almost fixed. About 75,000 tonnes  of gold was imported into India in the last seventy years,after independence, the same quantity would be lying with most families / bank vaults / temple vaults even today. The total quantity of gold mined till today is about 1,95,000 tonnes. India's share works out to 40 % roughly. Hence the name of GOLDEN SPARROW is very fitting & appropriate.

CHARACTERISTICS OF SPARROW

SYMBOL OF LOVE & LUST SIMULTANEOUSLY

The sparrow is a sacred house bird & symbolizes true love with a spiritual connection. In contradiction to this, sparrows are often regarded as the most lustful & sexually active birds. Yet they are allegedly monogamous & rarely fool around. Male is responsible for the building of the nest. During construction of the nest, male will try to attract a female partner. She can help in further building of the nest, if she is interested in mating. These paradoxically opposite traits in a sparrow relate very well to the current prevailing predicament of the world. Impure lustful human beings in this Iron age are the same souls who transform themselves by Gyan into Divine pure beings & step into the subsequent Golden age. The Egyptians believed that sparrows could catch the souls of the deceased and carry them to heaven. 

SELF REALIZED, SOCIABLE & HIGHLY ADAPTABLE BIRDS

Like most songbirds, sparrows are solitary or found in pairs. During the spring & summer breeding season they flock as family groups. Sparrows have several broods each year. Female lays 3 to 5 eggs. Incubation lasts 12 to 15 days. Both parents take care of the eggs & chicks. Young birds are ready to leave the nest in 15 days after birth. Lesson - imbibing  NON-ATTACHMENT / DETACHMENT  In autumn and winter, however, they will form mixed flocks of different sparrow species, and may even be mixed with some other small birds. Lesson - to imbibe the Virtue of EQUANIMITY. Above all, sparrows are adaptable birds, with a wide range of species found all over the world.  

AS SEED EATERS THEY RELATE TO THE HUMAN SEED

All life evolves from a seed, & having once started, it never stops multiplying. The same is true with the Human life. The Creator implants the human seed through Brahma, the impure ugly Krishna, during the Confluence Age. House Sparrows have an extra bone in their tongue to help them eat seeds. As flocking birds, they may be easily startled. They may fly between a food source & shelter frequently while feeding.

  

AMAZING FLYING MACHINES 

Sparrows are fast, agile fliers that use a series of rapid wing beats followed by a brief glide with folded wings to create an undulating flight pattern. To help the bird slow down, the tail flares out downward, creating more drag to decrease the bird’s velocity. The tail also helps the bird balance when it is perched on a branch. While the bird is soaring, it can spread out its tail feathers behind it to create additional lift and stability. They help them steer and maneuver while flying, as well as provide stability as they take-off and land. By twisting its tail, the bird can change its direction mid-flight. Although sparrows do not belong to the group of water birds, they can swim very fast to escape from the predators. Lesson - All sparrows are ever joyful, happy & content. They sing their songs instead of fearing, worrying or gossiping. Therefore there are no lazy or sick birds. 

BIRDS ARE TRUE MASTERS OF THE SKY

The wandering albatross can fly for hours, even days, without flapping its wings by exploiting the shear layer formed by the wind over the ocean surface in a technique called dynamic soaring. The other innovations include formation flying, thermal soaring, ridge soaring & gust soaring to migrate hundreds, even thousands of kilometers carried primarily by the wind. Bats can be flying at full-speed in one direction, then be flying at full-speed in the opposite direction, using a turning maneuver that is accomplished in just over 2 wing-beats, in a distance less than half the wingspan. These astonishing capabilities are called upon routinely in maneuvers like flared perching, prey-catching, and high speed flying through forests / caves. Even at high speeds and high turn rates, these animals are capable of incredible agility. Lesson - to explore & exploit nature for our personal advantage to conserve valuable energy.

THE FIVE YUGAS / AGES

Sangam Yuga / Confluence Age

This is the overlapping period between the end of the Iron age & the start of the Golden age. It here in this time period that the Creator Himself descends down on the Earth to impart Truth & knowledge, which sets the ball of transformation rolling. World wars are taking place on a massive scale causing misery & sorrow for those left behind. To offset this global grief, the Creator makes an effort to spread vibrations of Peace.  It lasts for merely 100 years. Therefore make the most of this rare opportunity.

Satya Yuga / Krita Yuga / Golden Age - 16 Celestial degrees

It was the age of truth and perfection. The Krita Yuga was so named because there was just one religion, and all people were saintly. Humans were gigantic, powerfully built, honest, youthful, vigorous, erudite and virtuous. All mankind could attain to supreme blessedness. There was no agriculture or mining as the Earth yielded those riches on its own. Weather was pleasant and everyone was happy. There were one Diety religion. There was no disease, decrepitude or fear of anything, even death. The pure souls simply switched to new costumes when the time arrived for them to change over.

Dvapara Yuga / Copper Age - 12 Celestial degrees

This age is considered to be the fourth Yuga in order. Dvapara means "two ahead". In this age, people become tainted with Tamasic qualities and aren't as strong as their ancestors. Ravan, Maya & Vicious traits take root. Diseases become rampant. Humans are discontent and fight with each other. Many religions spring up to divide the people & cause wars over stupid beliefs.  People still possess characteristics of youth in old age. Average lifespan of humans is around a century.

FACTUAL HISTORY OR FANTASY FOR POSTERITY


At this time period 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. 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. Now these professional story tellers collectively sat down & wrote down the memorized poems / verses in bits & pieces, half truth half fantasy. 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.  God help the posterity.

THE MAKING UP OF THE SCRIPTURES & INVENTION OF RELIGIONS

THE MAKING UP OF THE SCRIPTURES & INVENTION OF RELIGIONS 

FACTUAL HISTORY OR FANTASY FOR POSTERITY

At this time period 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.   

 BIRTH OF MULTIPLE RELIGIONS BRINGS CHAOS & MISERY

Many major religions started to take birth gradually, as a result the subjects had more than one choices. This became the root of the all evils & misery brought about by mankind himself. The great Mahavira gave birth to Jainism. Ayruveda schools sprang up to educate the masses. Gautam Buddha gave us the middle path to please the Almighty. Jesus Christ came down to show case, an even easier way to live our lives by healing ourselves first. Last to arrive on the scene was Mohammed, who was illiterate &  confused. His followers concocted paradoxical rules & rituals of Islam, which are not clear to their followers till today. 

RELIGION BECOMES A PROFITABLE OCCUPATION / TRADE

The ignorant & confused common man / woman started to believe in all the wrong things & invisible stuff like the evil spirits, the Devil. They remembered God who they thought lived way up in heaven, to come to their rescue when ever they encountered losses through natural calamities or passing away of a loved one. Many smart people posed as Gods middle men & tricked the ignorant public into helping them out of their predicaments. They would perform weird stomping rituals with a broom, faking to exorcise the devil in the person gone mad or who had lost his mind because of the unexplained mishap in his life. Every Hindu was considered a fortune teller. People equated Hinduism with Religion, Astrology & Palmistry. The craft of deception was taking roots in a big way. Religion became a trade, & that too a very profitable one. People were miserable with their existing conditions & searching for specific answers regarding the fate of their futures & even next births.  

INVENTION OF KING CONSTANTINE - CHRISTIANITY  BUT NOT CHRISTISM

He rounded up his best scholars & writers & compiled  the crude book for Christian followers from the massive scrolls numbering 80 & then kept 4 of them. He destroyed all the rest. This invention grew very slowly bit by bit. 

In 325, at the Council of Nikea, Constantine the Great created the Catholic Church.

In 327 Constantine, known as emperor of Rome, ordered Jerome to translate the Vulgate version into Latin, changing Hebrew first names and corrupting the scriptures.

In 431, worship of VIRGEM was invented.

In 594 PURGATORY was invented.

In 610, the Pope's title was invented.

In 788, the worship of pagan deities is imposed.

In 995, the meaning of kadosh (sided) was changed to saint.

In 1079, the celibacy of priests is tax >> utterly Catholic word.

In 1090, the Rosary was imposed.

In 1184, the Inquisition was perpetrated.

In 1190 indulgences are sold.

In 1215, confession was imposed on priests.

In 1216, the tale of Pope Innocent III about the terror of bread (a god in Greek mythology), which turns into human flesh, was invented.

In 1311, the Batesimo prevailed.

In 1439, the non-existent PURGATORY was dogmatized.

In 1854, the Immaculate Conception was invented.

In 1870, the absurdity of an infallible pope was required, inventing the concept of hiring

There are more than 2500 things invented by this religion to enslave humans with Christianity.

MEETING UP WITH THE CREATOR / GOD  - YOGA

Can any Tom Dick & Harry get up and go to meet the Queen. No way. It is the Queen who decides whom ever, & when ever SHE desires to meet ,not the other way round. Well the Queen is only a Human & it is possible to try and meet up with HER somehow, may be have tea with her & talk about the Kohinoor Diamond in her Crown.

Can the same Earthling ever dream of meeting up with Creator / God. Impossible, totally impossible. Firstly no one knows Who HE is, & where we can find HIM. Secondly What & How will we have a dialogue with HIM because HE has no access to human organs of speech.        

NATURE OF CREATOR

What is the form of Almighty. Where is the proof that HE exists at all. Till the arrival of the Confluence Age there are no answers.  If you have set aside all the questions & now rely on blind faith in HIS existence, then such single pointed saints / people become great souls for the common man. HE does impart flashes of Visions, but they are of no use in this life or any other life. At the end of the Iron Age HE does make HIS appearance to a select few, gives HIS Introduction & asks us to reform ourselves, become Pure & Virtuous. No human can know or realize God up till the auspicious time, when HE decides to reveal HIM self by taking a pure body / chariot on loan. This lucky chariot happens to be the  friendly known soul of Krishna, who is now turned Ugly, impure, Tamopradhan, in his last 84 th birth.  The creator, very affectionately called Shiv Baba by HIS adopted children, the Brahma Kumaris, & Kumars, opens up a Hospital cum University to impart the Alchemy of Knowledge first hand.  HIS Shrimat is the Original GITA which sharpens our Intellects & we start making effort to become Pure souls again, just like we did in the last cycle & every cycle. Shiv Baba too is a Pure Soul, a point of light but Ocean of all Virtues.     

PARADISE ON EARTH

In the beginning of the Kalpa or the start of the four Ages, there was One land mass known as Bharat, the Golden Sparrow. On this lone small Pure continent, the First Prince Krishna & Radhe began the long journey, with Love Abundance & Equanimity. The climate was very conducive, springtime through out the years, because of the horizontal positioning of the Earths Magnetic poles. Soon they were Crowned as Emperor & Empress by their own subjects. Everyone  portrayed Divine manners & subscribed to One Deity religion. They ruled for 9 dynasties as Lakshmi & Narayan in the start of the Golden Age. From here they stepped into the Silver Age as Sita & Rama to rule over the hearts of their subjects for another 12 dynasties to come in absolute peace, because there was no other land to conquer or another religion to divide them. Such a Paradise will be remembered by its inhabitants as Heaven at a latter time to come.  

INVASION BY FOREIGN KINGS ON THE GOLDEN SPARROW

The Golden Sparrow was rich in Gold, Jewels, valuable spices beyond imagination. The relatively minor fiefdoms around Bharat wanted to conquer this paradise & make it their home. Persia invaded Bharat & ruled the Indus Valley. Then came Alexander the great who had conquered almost the rest of the world. The Greeks were not to be left behind, so they too ruled over Hindustan. Soon the Turks invaded from the north & ruled the Indus Valley. Finally the Mohammedans made their way starting with Ghazni who shamelessly plundered 17 times and took away all the riches of the Golden sparrow. The other noble Mohammedans were the Mongols who ruled as if it is their own land & helped in the development & advancement of the country.  The greedy Britishers too started their assault with East India Company in Bengal. Before the blink of an eye they established their rule by installing Warren Hastings as their first Governor  General of India.  Their wrath & hate for the Indian people is known to whole world.  

DIVISION OF LAND  BEGETS ORPHANS & DESTRUCTION.

At the start of the Copper Age, after a lapse of 2500 peaceful years, the down fall of humanity began & all the Purity down played into Impurities & Vicious Vices. Ravan & Maya appeared on the scene, drowning the whole continent in Lust, jealousy, anger, killing, greed, ego & attachments. The tectonic plates shifted & more land was added to the existing continent which was now renamed as Hindustan. People started to migrate to newer unknown lands with the sole greed for their own kingdoms & self proclaimed kings. Now the stage was set for wars between multiple kingdoms with different religions & values. The one large Kingdom of Bharat disintegrated into 16 smaller states / kingdoms. During one such unfortunate  partition / division, the Egos of  two clans got the better of them & there was a big war.  This mighty battle lasted 18 days on the plains of Kurukshetra. The Kauravas lost everything & the Pandavas won the graveyard that was left behind. This Epic is narrated as Frametales - a story within story, was called THE MAHABHARTA WAR.   600 years latter when this Epic was first written down, it was named JAYA with just 8800 verses. It took three years to pen it down on crude hand made paper. JAYA means spiritual victory over self and there are no LOSERS in this battle. Then after another couple of years they added some more verses to total it to 24,000 verses and renamed it as BHARTA, which describes clan fighting over land ownership. With some more passage of time many more verses are added to total it to 75,000. Now it is  renamed it as VIJAYA meaning material victory with one LOSER & another winner. Finally another bright writer musters up guts to add more of the stuff to increase the total to 100,000 verses plus. Now it is once again renamed as MAHABHARTA which means the wisdom of the land. The big lesson to be learnt from this Frametale  is that no body ever wins in a war, both sides are LOSERS  in the end.


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 by Shiva during the Confluence Age to HIS student Brahmins. This memory of God Shiva speaking the teachings of GITA has been reenacted / borrowed & purposefully inserted, for the benefit of the mankind in the Epic.

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.  

SEARCH FOR THE FATHER & REMEMBERING HIM

A  faint memory of the beautiful Paradise like Golden Sparrow & Benevolent God existed in the minds of the common man, laden with vices, attachments, lust & drowning in his own misery. Anyhow he desperately wanted to connect back with the almighty God, even for just a quick glimpse. The smart middle men saw this as their big opportunity to convert this pressing need into a roaring trade. False claims about the secrets of Yoga & multiple pathways to God were ready for the gullible troubled common man. All he had to do was to cough up the price for the particular pathway he preferred out of the many offered to him by the greedy touts & charlatans.

LIVING IN SORROW

When there is One, who will fear whom. The thinker & the thought are one & same, hence misery disappears. When you see through the prism of Ignorance, it appears many & therefore feels separate from one another & HIM. Trouble begins when man has more than one choices. That religion which sanctions one wife or this one which allows four wives simultaneously. Living in compact home located in a Valley or a sprawling glass house on top of the mountain. A fair slim maiden is more desirable than a dark plump female. If not this one then which one will I choose. Misery is a combination of Fear, Jealousy, hatred, competition & limitations. It is the inner mental conflict in the Soul which is torn between the world of matter, flesh & world of Spirit. The presence of Celestial beauties / virgins in heaven is totally wishful thinking & baseless, because souls have no physical bodies for any interaction. The tools of lust & pleasure are left behind on Earth.

LONGING FOR A GLIMPSE OF HIM

Yoga is simply the union of this miserable soul on Earth, with the Supreme Blissful Soul in Eternity above. It is also the method to remove Ignorance which is the cause of restless mind & transcend its limitations. Mind is difficult to control. It wanders like a butterfly rarely resting at any one branch / flower.  

HEART FELT DEVOTION

Bhakti is unerring Devotion lead by the heart of the devotee. The luke warm aspirant stood no chance against the earnest hankering aspirant. Our limited intellect can not conceive the Infinite Super Being. HE is beyond our reach of finite thought & speech. Therefore in our limited ways we created Material Symbols to comprehend the Infinite limitless God. Pretty naive & childish on our part. We were very pleased with our selves to have created Idols, Gigantic Images, Lingams of all kinds & sizes. Further we set them up in powerful costly shrines & kept them locked up from the public. The trustees of these places made their own rules & started extorting money to view these inanimate Images / Idols. This is how religion became a profitable trade for the lucky few.   

KEEPING THE MIND BUSY

Chanting / Japa was invented for the troubled man. It is the rosary which is threaded with incoming & outgoing breaths. Repeat the Mantra /Japa in the rhythm of your breath.

Prayer & Worship are intense longing for God. Who weeps for God. No one complained of losing God or celebrated finding HIM. Our attitude towards HIM determines our relationship with HIM.

FOUR FORMS OF YOGA

Attempts to connect & be in Union with God through Intense Devotion is termed as BHAKTI YOGA.

The method of discrimination by which we can realize our Identity with the Supreme Existence is JANA YOGA. It is the science of Wisdom.

The gift of detachment by which we can govern all our duties without entanglements of work through which we are engaged is called KARMA YOGA. It is the science of work.

The methodology by which we can control our mind itself, which is the cause of all our miseries is labeled as RAJA YOGA. It is the science of the  Soul taught by Supreme Soul, the Raja HIMSELF.
