From my way to path of Self Realization............... "An effort of communication beyond the reach of words."
A compilation of humble sharing being intuited as spiritual experiences while traversing upon the divine path from way to Self Realization during interaction of the self with "Self" in guidance of an enlightened sage is getting reflected in "From my way to path of self realization".The contents are only for self contentment with firm confirmation to what says Lord Buddha: "Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who has said it not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reasons and your own common sense."
True cure is that which provides liberation
from
the general malady of the world.
The beginning of worship or adoration
is
the commencement of this remedy.
When meditation is complete, we are wholly cured.
The Supreme Spirit is the only God
and
the means-the impulses-that provide access to that God
are
the “divine treasure”
because they bring the ultimate God within reach.
The world is an expanded form of the mind.
So the mutable world is the object
that has to be offered as a sacrifice.
When the mind is perfectly controlled,
there is also perfect control over the world.
To trim the mind along with the body
and
senses in keeping with the goal,
is
penance.
They tend to digress from the goal
but have to be pulled back and applied to it.
The real Yagya is restraint of the vital winds of life, subduing of the senses, and control of the mind.
*********************
Penance is the initial to final requirement for traversing upon the “Path of Self Realization”
When your mind and senses get totally restrained,
there is no way out
except
to reach to the stage of stillness…….., of complete silence….!!!
And beloved waits there….
waits for your final merger
so that eternal silence may ever last for infinite eternal silence.
You exist no more
and
identity is lost forever.
Drop drops in ocean and gets named as ocean.
Oneness….only oneness exists.
*****************
A journey from silence to eternal silence till to reach to the stage of stillness,of complete silence is to be traversed upon the “Path of Self Realization”
Jeeva/Maya/Supreme being and then Jeeva/Supreme Being minus Maya
and
then remains only Supreme Being with final merger getting minus
to
Jeeva and Maya.
Bhagavad Gita sings:
upadrastānumantā ca bhartā bhoktā maheśvarah
paramātmeti cāpyukto dehe’sminpurusah parah
“Although residing in the body, the Soul is transcendental
and
said to be the witness, the granter, the enjoyer,
and
the great God and Supreme Spirit.”
The Soul dwelling in the sphere of the heart
is
even closer than one’s hands, feet, and mind. Whether we do good or evil,
he is unconcerned. He just stands as a witness-an onlooker, (updrashta)
When the right course of worship is taken and the wayfarer rises a little higher,
the
approach of the witnessing Soul changes and he becomes the granter. (anumanta)
Now he begins to grant and confer intuitions. When the seeker is yet closer to the goal by
further spiritual discipline, the Soul begins to support and sustain. (bharta)
Now he also provides the propitious yog.
Then he turns into the enjoyer. (bhokta)
when the worship is even more refined. He accepts whatever yagya or penance
is
performed, and at the stage after this acceptance
he is transformed into the great God. (Maheshwar)
He is now master of nature, but since he is master of nature it follows that nature yet abides in some part of him.
At even a higher stage than this,after the soul is endowed with the attributes
of
the ultimate,he comes to be known as the the Supreme Spirit.
Thus although dwelling in the body,
this soul or Purush is yet transcendental – quite beyond nature.
Witness at the beginning is transformed into the Supreme Spirit himself.
[Revered Adgadanandji Gurudev]
This is step by step elevation for a seeker while traversing upon the “Path of Self Realization”
Both the ways,
of light and darkness,
of knowledge and ignorance,
have been forever.
But the merits of worship are never destroyed.
The one who dies in the state of knowledge
and
brightness achieves ultimate salvation,
but
the one who departs from the body
in the state of ignorance and obscurity
has to come back
and undergo yet another birth.
And this succession of one birth after another goes on
until there is perfect light;
until that moment ………….
the seeker has to carry on his worship.
**********************
A long journey is required while traversing upon the “Path of Self Realization”
When
all the possible doors
of
your mind and senses get closed permanently
for total filtering of any material noise
as a result of
spiritual austerities,
one reaches to the stage of silence.
Such person is real “Muni”
because
mind and senses are in status of complete “maun” i.e. silence
and
activities for sensual pleasures get silent for ever.
This is the stage
which leads
to
eternal silence.

It’s a gradual elevation step by step which enables to traverse upon the “Path of Self Realization”
