Neck :

It is difficult to turn a very thick neck. Therefore people with such necks can only see in front. Such people do dwell on the present things but they can not analuze the past. Such peopl are called stupid (मूर्ख).

Slender neck is generally attributed to shrewd (चालाक), wise people who always think before they act.  People who think very deeply their neck is bent forward so that their head is little forward bent. 

People who are facing a deep worry or anxiety their neck will be bent towards one side. Egoistic and brave people will have straight stiff necks. 

If we see long necked animals like, giraffe, Camels, Kangaroo, Saras, Ducks, they all are very coward in nature, same will be humans if having long neck. They do not carry any mental speciality. 

People with strong, round, medium sized neck will be heavier in size, deep, profound, majestic (तेजस्वी) and people whose neck is short and is almost inside the shoulders, such people are untrue in nature and prone to bad vices, addictions.

One in whose neck bones and veins are seen they do not enjoy good health. Every other day they face some physical problem with their body. Round beautifull neck represents disease free state. One on which too much flesh is loose and sagging they have many children. When bones of the neck are seen protruding outside it represents problem in procreative organs. If veins and artries are bulging in the neck then it represents repeated attacks of diseases in a person. 

One with flat neck, such people will keep on changing their ideas and actions

Ears :

Long ears represent humble, polite, meek and coward personality. But if their part attaching to the skull is thick, then big ears will reflect an eminent luminary person, a leader or a pious soul.

If ears are small then it represents a sociable person who is helpful, loving in nature. 

But if they are too small then it indicates small hearted, lower intellectual state, lower goal oriented people.

 If they are sticking towards the skull towards back side or hair line, then such people will have doubting nature, little submissive and shyness in character.

Elephant like straight ears represent manly character, strong nature and courage. If ears seem to be weakly attach with skull and outwards lie horns from the skull, then such people are greedy and cruel in nature.

Peole with thick, straight and high ears are of strange temperament. normally they live in right but if they are excited or tormented then they take a very ruthless form which is difficult to control.In such a state they can perform acts which normally one could never imagine from them, seeing their behavoiur when they were in normal state.

If point of attachment of ears to the skull is higher than eye level then such people are of angry nature. such people are cruel, ready take revenge, angry in nature.

If ear's joint to the skull is lower than upper part of the eye, then they are good natured, disease free body, have good intellect.

If ears are conch shaped then such people are having good status in society and are leaders. 

One who has long hair on the ears, they have long life. 

Small fleshless ears represent lower class person with suffering (दुख) and destitution (दरिद्रता) in life. 

Vascular ears showing lot of veins, it indicates cruel personality.

One whose ears are contracted into a small size, they are generally not to be believed and are impoversihed. It does not apply to wrestler ears.

If ears are at a distance from eyes then such people are thinking power is well developed.

Those whose ears are near to the skull they represent dispassionate nature, melanlchol. They do not take interest in any work and like to remian in seclusion.

If holes of the ear are smaller it is a good symptom. Where ever such peole live they will be happy. If ear holes are bigger then such people always create problems for others.

One in whom the ear hole is visible deep inside, such people are hard working, physically strong.

Those in whom hole is seen little as it is crooked such people have many frineds and are sociable in nature.

Long ears in males persons represent long life but less wisdom.

If ears are longer in female they represent wise and good digestion.

Small ears in males means wise person.

Small ears in women represent stupidity.............Shaktanand.

 Lips:

Effect of temperament seen on other parts f the body takes time but on the lips they become immediately evident. As changes take place in the temperament, colour and shape of the lips also change. 

Excessively big, very small, very thin lips show not so good personality. 

Lips which do not close properly, they represents one who is mindless and unnecessary chattering personality. it represents a short sighted personality and weakness in character.

If lips are thick they convey a mentality to enjoy the comforts of senses. If in such persond lower lip is a little bigger then such people will like to enjoy tasty food. They will be kind at heart, unpredictable temperament and tender hearted.

IF thick lips which close tight like door then it represents people who will be opportunist, show cunningness, unwavering and steadfast people.Once they believe in something then it is very difficult to wean them off from that thought.They do not get affected even any one tries hard to convince them. 

If thin lips which are tightly shut, such people will be dry, miser in nature, self centred. Such people are not found to be happy but they are steadfast in case of business. it is difficult to reassure such people.

If upper lip is bigger than the lower one and forward hanging type, then such a person will be of good character, helpful, shy, humble and noble person. They will have a few friends, those also will be half committed.

If in thin lips upper lip is bigger, then it represents a person who is of worrying nature, indifferent attitude, always fearing and crying about his misfortune or hardluck.

If lower lip is bigger then it represents egoistic, great scholarship personality, excess laughter, will have tendency to do others criticism.  if the edges of the lower lip are little bent then such people will be fashionable, philosophical temperament, smart, shrewd people whose fame will spread far and wide.

If edges of the both the lips are sunken then it represents happy character, loving, polite talker. but if they are bulging upwards, then it represents deep, self satisfaction, sociable, respectfull personality. If one is pressed and other is bulging, such people will be truth tellers, can be trustworthy. But should not share secrets with them as they cannot digest secrets and are bound to tell someone or the other.

Bluish lips are angry people, light colour lips belong to hard working people, red lips belong to smart knowledge able, materially well equipped, always happy.

Those whose lips always remain moist they are always happy. One whose lips are always dry, they will be diseased and unhappy.

High spiritual persons will have dry, cracked lips.

If upper lip carried many lines on it it represents long life.

If lower lip has small small lines on it then it will make the persons spend more time away from home. 

if central part of the lips is little swelled like a beak then it represents weakness of brain.

If width of mouth is medium then such people are good businessmen. 

If ones mouth is extremely wide upto ones cheeks like a dog or crocodile then such people are are fools, are poor and harassed by others.

General Shape of eye brows.

First type of eyebrows which ae bowed like a archers bow, thin well deifned convey good natured, simple, sweet personality and artictis person. but there should not be too much distane between the two brows because in that case it will depict weakness of character. 

If the brows meet together and there is no space inbetween conveys that such a persons mind and is not  pure. Such a person will have doubting nature, will smetime believe and some time not, weak in character, their cannot be vouched for their words. While dealing with such people, one should observe great caution.

If eyebrows are straight and close to eyes they represent a strong, egoistic, harsh personality.

If eye brows are asymmetric and crooked, such peole are generally dirty, cunning, intelligent, strength, careless, grumpy and short tempered in nature.

if colour hair of eyebrows is lighter than the colour of hair of one's head then it reperesents weakness but if it is darer than head hair then it represents more strength. 

One who has small hair in the brow line such people easily dive deeper into any subject and they understand reality.

Those who have longer hair in their brow line such people learn understand late in life after many bitter lessons.

As per Red book:

More the eye is protruded and light in colour, hgher the wisdom of person, quick understanding and divine spiritual strength.

Further, which ever animal it resembles, one will take those kind of traits too.

 Nose : 

There are certain rules to make nose in a statue. Its length should be equal height of forehead, its width should be as per the length of one's eye, its thickness should be equal to the distance between the brows. Such a nose is carried by a good natured and strong, wise, fortunate person.

Small nose big face small face big nose, thin nose wide nasals, wide nose thin nasals all are not good it represents lack in character.  

Straight, thin, long nose represents pure character, upholder of principles, artistic in nature, zeal for working. If nose is crooked with depression, less flesh on it and not proportionate then it means that person is self centred, dry and ruthless in nature.

Nose tip pointing downwards and nasal holes are not seen, such a person carry indifferent attitude, fondness for slandering others. If nose is upward pointing and flat, so that some inner part of the nasal passages is visible, then such person will be adept in dealing with others, shrewd, do what ever they please or high handed,  humorous in nature and generally liked by others. 

Flat nose is neither good to look at and nor the person carrying it is of good temperament. if suc a nose is little ressed type then such people are of very low order. If flat nose goes straight then such people are performers of special things, researchers, thinkers who can see far into future.

If nasal passages are constricted then such people are generally coward in nature and weak. If the nasal paasages are flared then such people are emotional and sensuous. Such people will make a small thing seem very big.

Those with 2.5 finger length nose are generally poor in nature.

Outer form and Inner temperament connecton, Samudrik Shastra (सामुद्रिक शास्त्र)-: Part 1

Once lord Kartikeya wrote a scrippture on how to check a person by just looking at his/ her face and body structure and took it to his father Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva asked him to describe him accroding to that shastra. Kartikeya explained to his father what he is according to the present study. Lord Shiva got angry on hearing the explanation and three the shastra away which fell into the ocean. The lord of the ocean came out and asked Lord Shiva what is he supposed to do. Lord Shiva told him to improve the scripture. To this ocean deity replied that 'Lord I will do it only on one conditon, if you agree to it. The improved scripture will be known by his name i.e. as Samudrik (Oceanic) Shastra (Scripture).' Lord Shiva agreed and thus Samudrik Shastra came into being. This was a scinece in itself and our ancient rishis knew and practiced it too. It was also used by astrologers in the past though in the [resent times their is dearth of such astrologer. Its an interesting read, hence same is being shared with dear readers here to kindle interest and make them pursue same at their own ends too.

Part - I

Form (आकृति) is based on one's temperament (स्वभाव), Temperament is not based on form of a person. our gross body also carries a very blurred kind of form accompanying it all the time in the form of a subtle body (सूक्षम शरीर) which can become visisible if one concentrates on it. similarly an impression of inner thoughts and behaviour (विचार तथा व्यवहार) can also be observed on the face of a any subject by an adept in this knowledge. Our actions are based mainly on our thoughts which are result of our inherent belief system. due to inner feelings only our outer actions are affected. When such thoughts and feelings inside are not focussed but wavering all the time then it is difficult to gauge a person from face but when they are developed and focussed then are easily seen on the face.  We can easily observe it on the face of very happy person and very depressed person. Both can be easily observed from their facial expressions. It has been rightly said that face is the index of mind, provided we have the light in our eyes to observe it.

Hence due to effact of different thougths and behaviour, whatever effect is carried on to the mind and body in subtle form cause many symtoms to arise which may cause changes in the physical form of a person. spiritual people reading such symptoms can infer about the inner make up any subject. Anyone's past, present future can be predicted through this knowledge by the adepts. We cannot say that such prdictions will be 100% correct. Some time they are not.  Ther can be two reasons to this; 1. Person may have changed his temperament but still it has not brought the right changes on his body; 2. Some minor mistakes in observation or inquiry. 

Shree Ram Sharma Acharya ji has made some interesting observations in his 'Akriti Dekh Manushya ki Pehchan  (आकृति देख मनुष्य की पहचान). 

Hair (बाल)  :

One who has good brain his head hair growth is good; one who is physically strong and has oj his beard & moustaches are strong. One who is more sensual his sensual parts will have more hair growth. one with strong hear will have more hair on chest. Where ever hair growth is less or broken and not proper that part is sure to be weaker. 

One whoare baldish they will have weak intellect. One who has less hair in their beard etc on face, they will be less brave and less entusiasm and virility. those who are impotent will have no hair growth near sexual organs. 

Thick, strong, thick and hard hair growth represent a vicious and stubborn person while silky, fine hair growth represents a hard working and intellectual person. Stubborn person is generally not having good wealth while soft hair people are generallly with good resources. 

Black hair represents more iron in one's body, which an indicator of disease free and strong body.

Those who do lot of mental work, their hair growth is generally less and results in baldness.

Curly hair people are loving nature, temperamental (मनमौजी), helful, do goodders, laughing and ailing health. their anger subsides quickly and they do not do anyone's wrong. They are dependable in nature.

little lighter black colour hair people are generally fickle minded, always highly ambitious, emotional, never satisfied. Always feel themselves to be unfortunate. if such persons skin colour is fair then he is undependable. happy, easily gel with women, children, are helpful to others, sychophants (चापलूस).

if lighter black colour hair which are strong and stiff, then person likes solitude, want freedom and careless in nature. 

Brown hair with reddish hue, as per astrology represent Mars planet. Such people are strong, egoistic, brave in nature.

Brown hair people are animalistic in nature. which ever path they enter, they keep working in that. They do not have faith in others.

Golden hair, shows gentle behavious, soft people, they do not enter into anything big and also do not attain success in any difficult task, happy in nature.

If golden colour is mixed with reddish colour then they have a very strong inteleect. strong mental faculties developed in them, they have great flair for writing, speaking, visualizing, creating and impressing others people.

Those with red hair, such people are revengefull, whatever they do they will do with great effort, focus and put all their resources in to it. Whatever they get after, they do not leave it. 

One's whose hair stand like nails, they are angry and irritable by nature, egoistic, equipped with great mental and physical strength, 

Those with soft silky hair, they are soft in nature, full of imagination, cowardish in nature, religious, kind and peaceful in nature.

IF hair growth covers the forehead much then it person will be facing one or the other problems in his life. If forehead broad then person will be wise. 

One whose hair line join the bottom of their ears, then those people are eloquent or silver tongued. 

If hair growth goes to quite a distance on the neck, such people are mentally developed.   

Eyes (आंखें) :

Eyes are an index of a persons mind. 

Blue eyes soft in nature.

Dark blue eyed peole are dependable.

Light blue eyed people are thinking people, have more patience and sweetness in them.

Green eyed people are vicious in nature, they are self centred and can deceive anyone for their own purpose. 

If green eyes also carry brown lines in it then such people are good natured, artistic in nature, helpful. 

Orangish or yellowish eyed people are fickle minded, emotional, poetic nature, self centred.

Black eyes represent strength, agility, strongness. while light blackness of eyes represent deceitful, guie and hypocrites.

Catlike, they seem to simple from outside but from inside they are waiting to strike at the right moment. 

One who do not look eye to eye, they are those who have something on their lips and something else in their hearts. 

One who tries to keep his eye sight unnecessary fixed on one, such people are illmannered and arrogant in nature.

One whose sight is slanted not straight they are always merciless, ruthless and cold blooded.

One whose one eye goes in one direction and other in different directions, such people are half mad, stupid, 

black black mole like spots in eyes represent strength of mind (atmabal).

Whose eyes remain more wet and teary they are coward, anxious and uneasy in nature. 

One who bat his eye lids frequently such people are building castles in air, not to be trusted, always talk big of themselves.

One who talks by contrcting one eye, they are always not trusting the other person. 

Those who have small round black eyes, lethargic and untrust worthy.

Those who keep their eyes half open while sleeping such people are always apprehensive and greedy.

One who bats his eyelid after a long duration such people are lethargic but thinkers.

One who open their eyes too much while talking they generally are affected by eye diseases.

Witness State

For creation, one moves from Nishakal (निष्कल) to Sakal (सकल) and for annihilation one moves from Sakal (सकल) to Nishkal (निष्कल). Thus we can say all the spiritual practices (अध्यात्मिक सधना) in a way are methods to lead a sadhak (साधक) from  Sakal (सकल) to Nishkal (निष्कल). Sakal means with Kalan (कलन) and Nishkal means without Kalan (निः कलन). Kalan (कलन) is the Sfuran (स्फुरन) and later we call it vibraton (कंपन). Whole universe is vibrating up to its smallest particle known as atom (परमाणु).

Our body is equipped with 5 senses (पञ्च इन्द्रियां) which are connected with our mind. Our mind is always in the process of expereincing the subjects of these senses in the outside world. It keeps running whole of its life outward but is never able to find that very sense object after experiencing which it feels completely satisfied and does not feel need of that snese anymore. So we can say that one remains dissatified (अतृप्त/ atript) whole of ones life. So it is the mind which when attached to any outside sense object makes one run after it. This is depicted by outgoing senses in the figure 1 below which is nothing but a grosser representation of Pathway 1 shown in the above sketch. This is known as ignorance (अज्ञान) and is seen as darkness in the forhead as we close our eyes.

Now when through Sadhana, we start to take the mind off from the senses object and start focussing on inward things, say like pran (प्राण), our mind starts getting detached from the outward movement through senses and start getting attched to the obervation of pran (प्राण). But this is not so easy. As after sometime it again dissociates from it starts moving towards the sense enjoyment. But when one keeps on practicing pran observaton through mind, mind starts becoming more and more stable and still. As it stillness increases, one starts observing appearance of light or effulgence inside the forhead at the eyebrow centre. This light is known as Prakash (प्रकाश) or knowledge (ज्ञान). Longer our mind is able to observe the pran, more state of witness is attained by it. More the state of witness (साक्षी) dawns, more and more light starts appearig at the eye brow centre. Hence light is directly proportional to the witness state (साक्षी भाव) of the sadhak. ............. Shaktanand (शाक्तानन्द).

Atma Tantra

We usually talk of 64 tantras. 64th tantra is the ultimate freedom while 63 lead to it. The ultimate atma tantra, 64th is attaining of ultimate freedom, which is what we call final emanicipation, moksha, deliverence or atma siddhi. Before this, play of many siddhis. 

In the same manner, Kaulachar (कौलाचार) also passes through seven stages or sapt bhoomika (सप्त भूमिका). From Diksha (दीक्षा), Abhishek (अभिषेक), to Poorn Abhshek (पूर्ण अभिषेक), Kram Diksha (क्रम दीक्षा), Samrajyabhishek (साम्राज्याभिषेक), Maha Samrajyabhishek (महा साम्राज्यभिषेक) and Atma Diksha (आत्म दीक्षा). Poorn abhishikt sadhak is genrally considered guru level evolved sadhak or who can give diksha though it depends upon permission form one's own diksha guru. Only upon his instructions such step can be taken by a sadhak. 

The above seven steps are movement from completion of karma or action and realization of complete grace or kripa (कृपा). First sadhak performs various sadhanas under different dikhas as per guru's instructions, acquires various shaktis and thus expereinces the mother divine's powers or omnipotence attribute. Then he realizes Her omnipresence or vyapakta (व्यापक्ता). This vyapakta or spread is exprienced both outside and inside as well. After this sadhak firmly believes that She pervades the whole universe and thus gets totally fixed in Her. When he expereinces that she alone is living inside him too, his own ego mechanism falls. He realizes he is not the doer but she alone is the instigator, she alone is the doer, she alone is the fruit giver and she alone is the taster of that fruit too. When such an experience is attained then he falls from the state of being a doer (कर्ता भाव). The moment this happens, grace descends on the sadhak. This alone is the seventh state mentioned as Atma Diksha (आत्म दिक्षा) in the Kaulachar.  

After Poorn Abhishek (पूर्ण अभिषेक) comes Kram Diksha (क्रम दीक्षा), it is considered equivalent to the state of Dandi Swami (दण्डी स्वामी). After this comes the Samrajya Abhishek (साम्राज्याभिषेक). It is considered as state of a king who has his own area of control (साम्राज्य). In his area, he does not have to work anything for himself but Mother takes care of his requirement. He becomes a messanger of the Her and simply adheres to Her instructions. After that comes Maha Samrajyabhishek (महा साम्राज्याभिषेक), in this the area of operation of the sadhak becomes much wider and in that area now, Mother takes care of his all requirements while he is devoted to Her work all the time. Last of all is the Atma Diksha (आत्मदीक्षा), where the sadhak becomes a perfect instrument of the Mother to work through. All his outer movements stall, he is continuously experiencing Her presence inside out. Now nature works through him and he is only a conduit for the Mother or the Isht (इष्ट). Transcedence of mind takes place, personal ego is demolished. In yog it is said to state of 1/512 unit of mind (which s considered a no mind state though even if it is 1/ infinity, it can never be zero), if we consider mind as having unit when it is operating in average human being in the mayic world, in such a state mind is considered to be negligible. In this state, sadhak simply sits, all his outer activities disappear, where ever he is that place becomes a teerth or sacred place and whosoever has his darshan their desires are automatically fulfilled......Shaktanand(शाक्तानन्द)। 

Spiritual Path (अध्यातम मार्ग), Action (कर्म) and Grace (कृपा)

 

24.03.26|:

Through Agam path, taking support of action one reaches the goal. But for performing karm or action, one need to have ego. Egos (अहंकार) are many kind like Body ego (शारीरिक अहंकार), Action ego (कर्म अहंकार), Mental ego (मानस अहंकार), Senses ego (इन्द्रिय अहंकार), Intellect ego (बुद्धि अहंकार) etc. The ego is negated by performance of karma. By diminishing of ego the need to perform karm also get finished. After this does and don’ts do not matter.

Chitt Shakti (चित्त शक्ति), present in the inner most place of jeeva, which was lying dormant gets awakened. This is the preliminary state of awakening. In general language this state is known as rising of Kundalini. On getting awakened Shakti travels upwards or becomes urdhavretas (उर्धवरेतस). With this upward flow, अचित्त/ Achit (unconscious or insentient state) taking चिदात्मक/ chidatmak (pure consciousness, supreme spirit) form joins the Chitt (चित्त). Thus jeev attains Shivahood (शिवत्व).

For a beginner on the spiritual path, आणव उपाय/ Anav Upaya (remedy or strategy) is used, for middle developed practitioner शाक्त उपाय/ Shakt upaya (remedy) is used and for higher sadhaks शाम्भव उपाय/ Shambhav Upaya (remedy) is used.

Even on acquiring the state of Shiv one has not realized completeness (पूर्णत्व). This will happen only when the jeeva realizes that he/ she is Shiv. When this happen complete realization dawns.

Here power (सत्ता) and Realisation (बोध) co-exist and ‘Anand (आनन्द)’ is realized. It is essential to perform as per the instructions of the Guru or scripture. By performing selfless action, Chitt (चित्त) gets purified, then Prameshwari Shakti (परमेश्वरी शक्ति) gives support, this is known as Kripa (कृपा). Kripa (कृपा) or grace and Karm (कर्म) or action both are relative. At start Karm and in the end Kripa. Some experience karm or action through grace (कृपा) and some are given grace (कृपा) through action (कर्म). When lord himself is attracted and appears near the sadhak, it is called Great Grace or Mahakripa (महाकृपा). ……… Shaktanand (शाक्तानन्द).

Purification, Devotion, Dhyan and Knowledge (शोधन, श्रद्धा, ध्यान तथा ज्ञान)

 

Purification or Shodhan (शोधन): By performing right acts in life, purification of mind takes place. Due to this purification, knowledge of god arises which leads of moksha or realization.

Till mind is there one is ‘human’ and when it is lost then one becomes ‘Mahatama (महात्मा)’.

What is mind purification: with right thoughts follow the right path, have company of people who follow truth, always be inspired by path of right dharma (धर्म).

Devotion (श्रद्धा): To believe in invisible like one’s strong belief in visible entities. With this knowledge dawns in the devotee. Devotion is bases of all dharmas. Bases of bhakti is also to have full devotion in the lotus feet of god. By chanting his names, praises, actions, bhakti keeps increasing.

Devotion performs amazing acts. It makes weak, full of strength. It makes impossible possible. It makes one get ungettable. It turns poison into nectar. It attracts the favours of the lord. It provides victory. This only makes one feel the eternal joy or nityanand (नित्यानन्द) in one’s heart. Hence ‘Be Devoted (श्रद्धवान हो जाओ।)’. Devotionless person cannot attain god but get entangled in the cycles of life and death only.

Dhyan (ध्यान): Ripened state of bhav is Dhyan. One becomes that of which one strongly thinks of. Extreme banishment (निरोध) of chit vritti (चित्त वृत्ति) is dhyan. Cause of it is stability of the mind. All pains arise from the fickleness of chitt (चित्त).

Knowledge (ज्ञान): Ultimate knowledge is that god resides in the form of Atma (आत्मा) inside all of us.  from book 'Nityanand Bhagwan', .............Shaktanand. 

Ras Sadhana (रस साधना):-

As without removal of Pashubhav (पशुभाव), Veerbhav (वीरभाव) cannot be attained in the same manner without establishing in Celibacy one cannot attain right to move in the realm of Bhav. Under it three states and 5 supports are needed as explained as below:

S.no     State                                         Support (आश्रय)

1.         Pravartak/ Das Bhav                 Name (नाम) & Mantra (मन्त्र)

            (प्रवर्तक/ दास भाव)

2.         Sadhak/ Manjari (मञ्जरी)           Bhav (भाव)

3.         Siddha/ Sakhi (सखी)                  Prem (प्रेम) & Ras (रस)

Symptoms of third state are: sense control, शौच/ Shauch/ Purity and dwelling in a sacred place. In this state one has to wait for receipt of mantra from a guru with great anxiety. One has to take refuge at the lotus feet of guru.

Before receiving the mantra one has to remove the difference between name/ naam (नाम) and name holder/ naami (नामी). Thus getting free of all offences one takes the name.

After this all sins are removed, purification of physical body and rising of सात्विक विकार/ Satvik vicar (emotional symptoms of transcendence or pure love). After making ones guru or lord one gets mantra. Till mantra becomes siddh one continues in प्रवर्तक/ pravartak state (instigator or originator state). This it-self is called Dasya bhav (दास्य भाव). This is also known as Vairagya (वैराग्य) or dispassion. After mantra siddhi (मन्त्र सिद्धि), sadhak bhav starts. Till dispassion is not attained, accompanying prakriti or female is totally banished. It is essential to have full control over sexual desires.

In sadhak state, prakriti of female is needed. Making रति/ rati or बिन्दु/ bindu stable, unmoving and vibration less, this alone is the goal of the sadhana. This is known as Kulachar (कुलाचार).

Till the above control is not achieved, what to say of accompaniment, one should not have darshan or even thought of prakriti at all. After mantra siddhi only Maya and Bhram (भ्रम)/ confusion gets removed and then Siddh is attained. Rati (रति) is the other name of Bindu only.

The main goal of Ras-Sadhana (रस साधना) is to become a rasik (रसिक). This state is beyond jeev and ishwar state.

Jeevbhav:        Bindu is havng spandan and rati is not stable.

Ishwar Bhav:    Bindu (बिन्दु) is totally controlled and rati remains stable or unmoving. Shukdev, Sanak etc. all remained aloof from Prakriti (प्राकृति) right from childhood and attained a state of dispassion and eternal kaumarya to attain unmoving rati (रति).

As pravartak takes support of guru’s lotus feet (गुरु के कमल चरण), in the same manner Sadhak takes refuge of Sakhi’s feet (सखी के चरण). Pravartaks (प्रवर्तक) attachment/ raag is Shraddha (श्रद्धा)/ devotion, in the same manner sadhak’s raag (साधाक का राग) is leela raag (लीला राग).

When bindu becomes siddh then sadhaks body/ deh (साधक का शरीर) also becomes siddha. In siddha प्रेम/ Prem (love) and Ras both are present. Without this body, Rasik state cannot arise. Symptoms of Rasik (रसिक) is that even living with prakriti, बिन्दु/ Bindu remains totally stable and unmoving and rati remains unbroken.

Jeev on seeing प्राकृति/ prakriti always wants to enjoy it. Spends whole life in this pursuits but still remains insatiated. Youth finishes, life finishes and nothing is attained. This is because bindu is moving and is not stable and he is not able to attain full control over it. Love and Ras are supported by Siddha which are lotus feet of Shree Radha ji. When attachment to worldly objects/ raag (राग) and intense affection or passion for god/ anuraag (अनुराग) of siddh gets removed, Prem rag/ प्रेम राग appears.

In the sadhak state prakriti bhav/ प्राकृति भाव arises and without it prem bhav is not possible. So first prakriti bhav sadhana/ प्राकृति भाव साधना, then in siddh state, sadhana of ras/ रस and prem/ प्रेम is performed and then establishment of Purush bhav/ पुरुष भाव……Om!..Shaktanand.

 

Pancha-Karma of Ayurveda

 

Just sharing small notes, from Charak Samhita (चरक संहिता) - a treatise on Ayurveda, on Panch Karma (पञ्च कर्म) in Ayurveda are represented by

 

त्र्यहावरं सप्त्दिनं परं तु स्निग्धो नरः स्वेदयितव्य उक्तः,

नातः परं स्नेहनमादिशान्ति सात्म्यीभवेत् सप्त्दिनात् परं तु।। चरक संहिता – प्रथमोध्याय/६

 

One should perform snehan for minimum 3 days or maximum 7 days. Because after seven days sneahn does not work.

 

स्नेहो अनिलं हन्ति मुदूकरोति देहं मलानां विनिहन्ति सङ्गम ॥ चरक संहिता – प्रथमोध्याय /७

 

Sneh is used to destroy Vaat, brings softness in body, it clears the obstruction of various mal and doshas.

 

स्निगग्धस्य सूक्षमेष्वयनेषु लीनं स्वेदस्तु दोषं नयति द्रवत्वम ॥ चरक संहिता – प्रथमोध्याय /८

 

After snehan (स्नेहन), perform swedan, then it liquefies all things sticking to subtle causal points in our body.

 

वमन/ Vaman: (Vomiting, for removing toxins from chest and stomach. To cure asthma, bronchitis, allergies, sinusitis, skin conditions like acne, some obesity too),

 

श्लेष्मोत्तरश्छर्दयति ह्यदुःख विरिच्यते मन्दकफस्तु सम्यक्,

अधः कफेऽल्पे वमनं विरेचयेद विरेचनं वृद्ध कफे तथोर्ध्वम्॥ चरक संहिता – प्रथमोध्याय /९

 

One whose kaph is aggravated, vomits without any effort, one whose kaph is less he easily performs virechan. When kaph is less then the liquid given for vaman or omit goes down without causing vomiting, when kaph is more then virechan liquid comes out in Vaman or vomit.

 

 

स्निग्धाय देयं वमनं यथोक्तं वान्तस्य पेयारनुक्रमश्च,

स्निगधस्य सुस्विन्नतनोर्यथावद्विरेचनं योग्यतमं प्रयोज्म। चरक संहिता – प्रथमोध्याय /१०

 

For a patient perform both inner and outer snehan, on the vaman too he should be made snigdh. After that with madankalpokt (मण्डलकल्पोक्त) procedure perform Vaman.

 

विरेचन/ Virechan: (therapeutic purgation, for removal of excessive Pitt dosha from liver, gall bladder and intestines. Used to cure metabolic and digestive conditions and skin problems like eczema, acne, acidity, IBS, gastritis, obesity, diabetes, migraine etc.). medicated ghee/ snehan and medicated steam/ swedan (स्वेदन) is used highly recommended during sharad ritu (शरद ऋतु) when Pitt (पित्त) is generally aggravated).

 

निरुह्य/ Niruhya: (‘Water based’ therapeutic cleansing decoction enema, kshaya basti.Detoxifies body, balances Vaat dosha, treats joint pains, low appetite, removes Ama or toxins, cures constipation, Usually done on 10^th day after Virechan. Niruhya is sometime alternated by Anuvasan Basti (अनुवासन बस्ती). Usually given on fixed times only. Used comprises of Honey, Saindhav salt, Ghee, Kalk or herbal paste and Kwath or herbal decoction).

 

अनुवासन/ Anuvasan:  (It’s a medicated ‘oil based’ enema for curing Vaat disorders in a patient. Oil is retained in the lower intestines. It nourishes, lubricates and strengthens the system in patient, provides nourishment and its effect remains for some time. Cures chronic constipation, pain in anal area and dryness which is cause of more diseases. Joint pains, Sciatica, back aches, bloating, gas problem, neurological problems like paralysis and Parkinson’s disease. Can be given daily. It comprises of oil massage or snehan and swedan or sweating. Improves immunity and ojas and calmness in a person. Uses medicated oils, ghee and other fats. Common oil base is Seasame oil (तिल तेल) with rock salt).

 

and

 

नस्य/ Nasya: (Nasal drops, oils or powder for snuffing for nasal congestion, headache, migraine or stress, prevents hair loss, enhances mental clarity.). Generally face massage given and then 3-5 drops of sesame oil is introduced in the nasals. Acts above clavicals and balances tridosh. It can be done with herbal ghee/ oil, medicated poweders and fumes of certain herbs or certain juices).

 

Hope, above will provide general information about pancha karma and other tridosh facts to the readers to prepare them for detailed study if interested. …………… Shaktanand.

Pitra loka (पितृलोक)

 World of Spirits:-

We humans have two powers, namely 1.Gyan Shakti (ज्ञान शक्ति) and 2.Kriya Shakti (क्रिया शक्ति). Gyan Shakti (ज्ञान शक्ति) develops from truth/ Satya (सत्य) and Kriya Shakti (क्रिया शक्ति) develop from propitious/ auspicious/mangal (मंगल). Therefore when our thought process or contemplation meets with gyan or knowledge then truth or Satya/ truth arises and when it connects with Kriya Shakti (क्रिया शक्ति) mangal or auspiciousness arises. But when he just thinks then basis of it may or may not be be his 'Will'. But when he performs action then his base is Will power. But when he first 'Will', then performs action then truth and Will (सङ्कल्प) both are present. A human cannot be human without having both. If gyan or knowledge is not realized in a person then it is stored in स्मृति/ smriti (memory). 

Will of a human is attracted towards evil or adharm right from inception. That is why he cannot think of anyone else's welfare apart from his own. This is known as Swarth Bhav (स्वार्थ भाव) or egotistical attitude. With true knowledge only bad intentions are decimated. 

Till one works with desire based on truth, does it with his heart, then his thought of knowledge turns into faith (आस्था/ aastha). Then Will gets converted into Love. If a human performs action with coming together of truth and good wish (ईच्छा) then Heaven evolves in his form.

Because Satya or Truth + Auspiciousness ( मंगल/ Mangal) = Heaven (स्वर्ग/ Swarg);

Ignorance (मिथ्या/ Mithya) + Evil wish (दुःसङ्कल्प/ duhsankalp) + Hell (नरक/ narak).

'Till truth of knowledge and right Will Power do not join, a human remains in the mid-way state, which is called Pitrilok (पितृलोक). Heaven and Hell both have one pointedness. Because where ever one lives, one develops according to that surrounding only. Whatever one thinks, one acts according to that too. One who wills and performs auspiciously in Heaven, thinks truthfully and one who wills and performs evil  in-auspiciousness in Hell, thinks ignorantly (मिथ्या/ mithya).

Thus, after death spirits go to a mid-way station called पितृलोक/ Pitralok or realm of ancestors. From there, spirits which have major good karma, after removal of their ignorance are sent to Heavens and those who have major bad karmas are made to embrace evil and sent to hell. No one goes directly to Heaven or Hell from the realm of death. So a human after death goes to realm of ancestors because we carry a mixed bag of karma of good and bad deeds both. Due to connection with truth movement to Heaven and due to connection with evil or untruth, movement to Hell takes place. 

All go to realm of ancestors where they have to wait. Some wait for a day, some for a month and some for a year. Maximum time a person can stay there is 30 years. Beyond this time none can stay there. Hence,

Gross Body (स्थूल शरीर) --> Death --> Mix of Karma (कर्म) and Knowledge --> Ativahak body (अतिवाहिक शरीर) or Pret body/ प्रेतशरीर provided to humans only --> on Pind (पिण्ड) offering at the place of cremation 'Dah Body' provided to the spirit --> After this one embraces Yog deh (yogic body) --> Ten Pindas offered in 10 days which generate 'Bhog Deh' for the spirit in question --> From here two paths divided (Krishna Paksha pertaining to Pitrayan path and Shukla Paksh pertaining to Devyan path). 

Krishna Paksha pertaining to Pitrayan path

This is /karm (कर्म) oriented realm and depending on percentage of Good and Bad karmas one is granted heaven or hell. Idea of granting heaven or hell is not just to make one finish his /karmic gati (कार्मिक गति) but to make one realize dispassion of the world and real meaning of coming into life of a human or any species. Though such discrimination lies only in the human form. After experiencing the fruits of one's past karmas with balance karmic account he is reborn on earth to carry forward.

Shukla Paksh pertaining to Devyan path (शुक्लपक्ष - देवयान पथ) 

But when one moves with knowledge predominance, then if he has performed all his actions with complete detachment he proceeds to Maharlok (महर्लोक), then to Satyalok (सत्यलोक) and then to Tapolok (तपोलोक).

But he has performed karmas with knowledge then he must stop at each station to experience the respective fruits in different realms. He first goes to Brahm lok (ब्रह्मलोक) and from there, he takes birth as a guru who is filled with knowledge. When all his desires are fulfilled then Hiranyagarbh (हिरण्यगर्भ) body is received. From that stage he progresses to Salokya state of his divinity or isht. From there he proceeds to Sarupya (सारूप्य), then to Samipya (समीप्य) and then after Mahapralaya (महाप्रलय), he merges into Brahm (ब्रह्म)..Om.

from Swasamvedan by Pt. Gopinath Kaviraj ji.

Disease (रोग)

 

As per WHO, what is the definition of a disease?

Defining health as not merely the absence of disease or infirmity but a state of complete 1.Physical, 2.Mental and 3.Social well-being. Now they have added two more aspects to it i.e. Material as well as Spiritual. Thus now imbalance of Physical, Mental, Social, Material and Spiritual,  all these define a disease/ rog (रोग) . 

As per Ayurveda, what is the definition of Disease or Rog.?

रोग किसे कहते हैं? (What do we call as disease?) (चरकसंहिता – शरीरस्थानम् – श्लोक = ४४-४६; Charak Samhita – Shareestanam – Sloka 44-46.)

पूर्व जन्म में किये गये कर्म को दैव कहते हैं और इस जन्म में किये गये कर्मों को पौरुष कहते हैं। दैव और पौरुष दोनों विषम होते हैं, इस लिये रोग उत्पन्न होने के कारण होते हैं। जब ये दोनो सम होते हैं तो रोग की निवृत्ति के कारण होते हैं। 

(actions of previous births are called ‘Dev’ and actions of present birth are called ‘Paurush’. Imbalance of these two cause diseases in our bodies and their balance leads to healthy state.)

सदाचार सूत्र (Principle of righteous condct):

जो व्यक्ति हितकारक आहार- विहार करता है, सोच समझ कर कामों को करता है, इन्द्रियों के विषयों में आसक्त नहीं होता, दान देने वाला होता है, सभी लोगों के साथ समता का भाव रखता है, सत्यता पूर्वक व्यव्हार करता है, क्षमाशील है, आप्त पुरुशों के सहचर्य में रहता है, वह मनुष्य रोगों से आक्रांत नही होता। जिस की बुद्धि सुख प्रद है, जिसके कर्मो के परिणाम सुख्प्रद हैं, जिसका मन अपने वश में है, जिसकी बुद्दि निर्मल है, जो ज्ञान का उपासक है, जो तपस्या में संलग्न रहता है, जो योग की क्रियाओं के करने में तत्पर रहता है, एसे पुरुष को रोग नहीं होता। 

(Person who follows balanced diet/ ahaar(आहार) and disciplined life style/vihar (विहार), performs his work with discrimination, one who does not indulge in the objects of senses, who gives alms, behave equally with all, who acts honestly, who firgives, keeps company of enlightened beings, such a person is not afflicted with diseases. Whose intellect is good, whose actions result in giving good and happy results, whose mind is under his control, whose mind is clear, one who is worshipper of knowledge, one who is ever busy in spiritual endeavours, one who is always busy in yogic kriyas, such a person never gets any disease.).

As per scriptures, आत्मा से च्युत होना ही रोग का कारण है। (falling down from the state of Atmic state is the real cause of disease.)  .........Om!...Shaktanand.

A Peek into 2025.

After almost 48 years, most school mates got together to do some good work for our old school by air conditioning the whole school and donating yoga books to the library for all the students. We thank the principal and all the staff members to make the whole exercise possible as without their help we could not have been able to accomplish it. We had the chance to go to our old school, which at our time was upto 10th class and later became a higher secondary institute. We had a chance to sit in the class rooms, interact with the children, listen to songs sung by a group of students, were kindly awarded by principal and staff and last of all treated with delicious lunch.
