Human Life is ephemeral

 
Vrischika 28, Dec 14, is Narayaneeyam Deay.

All Glory is Thine !

Even though Shaw extolled sex as divine,
Which bringeth a celestial flood of emotion
And exaltation of existence,
She too has her demerits.

King Purooravas, noble King,
Born in the tribe of Ila, Lunar Dynasty,
Fell in love with celestial nymph, Urvashi,
And indulged in pleasures sensory.

Urvashi told him about women,
That they are ruthless and cruel
And will not hesitate to assassinate
Own husband or brother.

One day, Conscience became dominant
Conscience chided him
" Thou art wasting precious time
Over pleasures transitory.

Aim of Life is to actualise Self
Beware of the loss of Ayus".
Lust is the First Deadly Sin
Which binds man to world sublunar !

Bhogangal ellam kshana prabha chanchalam
Vegena nashtamam ayussumorka nee.

Love for sensual  pleasures
Bind thee to the mundane !
Hard Sacrifice alone can give key
To the Heaven of Self Actualisation

Bhogangaliccha
Bandhamakunnu
Tat Tyagamakunnathu
Moksham ennothunnu

Due to Thy Influence
He became blase, of pleasures sensory.
That made him come to Thy Bhakti Yoga
And actualise Thee !

Aila Pragurvaseem pratyati
vivasamana seva maanchitastvam
Gadam Nirvdhya Bhooyo Yuvati
Sukham idam Kshurameveti gayan
Thval Bhaktim prapya poorna sukhataramachara
Thvdhva dhudhooya sangam
Bhaktotamsam kriya mam Pavanapurapathe
Pahimam Sarva Rogaal

Maya Tatamidam sarvam
Jagat Avyakta Moorthina
By Me is this vast Universe pervaded,
By Me, the Unmanifest !

says the Lord in the Holy Geetha.

Therefore, our primary duty is to
Love All & Serve All.

Ekkanda Characharngale
Okkayum Snehikkka allo
Uthama Bhagavata
Dharmam ennarika Nee !

The Massive Science of Time, Brihat Hora Sastra by Varaha Mihira





Sastra means Science, systematized knowledge of Nature. Not only physical sciences, Sastra includes spiritual sciences as well, as Indian Philosophy deals with both  Matter and Spirit, Purusha & Prakriti.

Siddhanta Sastra means the Science of Astronomy & Hora Sastra means the Science of Astrology.




P N Oak was right when he said that the English word Hour is a malpronunciation of the Sanskrit word Hora. Hora Sastra means the Science of Hour, Time.


When I met the astro scholar, Avanoor Asan, he was              ecstatic when he described the Master, Varaha.  Said the Master was an Avatar, who came to redeem this infinite Ocean of Knowledge which is the  Science of Time, this Hora Sastra , Hora Sastra Maharnava pratharane.

Aditya Dasathanayastava apta Bodha
Kapishtalo Savithru Labda vara prasada 
Avantiko Muni manany avalokya Samyak 
Horaam Varaha Mihiram ruchiram chakara

Savithru Labda vara prasada refers to Revealations received by the Master in higher states of Consciousness, symbolically depicted as boons from the  Sun ! 

An astronomer, mathematician and astrologer par excellence, Varaha strode the scene like an intellectual colossus, contributing to all the three branches of the triune Astro Physics, the Thriskanda Jyotis Sastra - Siddanta, Samhita & Hora.


See how he describes The Significations of the Twelve Houses  in just two lines

Kalya  Swa     Vikrama Griha Prathibha Kshatani
Chittotha Randhra Guru  Mana Bhava Vyayani.
The Quintessence of BHS are these two  verses

Planetary states are    seven,
Exalted is Sampoorna,
Devoid of strength positional is Riktha
In inimical, Is Anishta Phalada called !

Fallen from Exaltation is Avarohee
Madhya in houses of  fiends,
Arohinee when rising,
And Adhama in houses inimical !


Samyak balina  swa tunga bhage
Sampoorna balavarjitasya Riktha
Neechamsa gathasya satrubhage
Jneya  Anishtaphala  Dasa   prasoothu

Bhrishtasya tungath Avarohi samjna
Madhya bhaveth sa Suhrud Ucchabhamse
Arohinee nimna parichyutasya
Neecharibhageth Adhama bhaveth Sa !


BHS is Varaha’s magnum opus. wherein he spells out the principles of the Science of Time, in 384  verses of golden Sanskrit Poetry.


BHS has a great competitor, BPHS, Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra, consisting of 4000 verses.

Unique Feature of Indian Culture - Scientific & Artistic Knowledge in Poetic Form


Scientific Knowledge in Poetic Form

All the Eighteen intuitive sciences & the Eighteen eternal arts are in magnificent poetic form. There are 400 K verses in Mythology, 400 K verses of Siddhanta, Samhita & Hora and millions on other subjects also. The Law of Epistemic Correlation, that all branches of Knowledge are interrelated, find its fulfillment here, as All knowledge is One Knowledge.

In Indan Astronomy, while calculating the Sheeghra Anomaly based on the Geometrical Model of Parameswara, the following verse is given by Puliyoor

Arka Sphutoniham Kheda Mandasphuta mihoditham

Sparsajya Sheegrakendrardha Labhda karnathara hatha

Karna Yoga hritha bhooya sparsa chapatmaka kritha

Shoditha sheegrakendrardhal syath phalam sheegrasamjnakam
To get Sheeghra Anomaly,
Angle between planet and Sun
Deduct Sun’s Longitude
From Ecliptic Degree.

Sheeghra Anomaly = Ecliptic longitude of planet - Longitude of the Mean Sun.


x, Sheeghra Phalam is the angle formed between the Sun, the planet and the Earth. It is computed as per the formula.


Tan A/2 - x = ( b - a) /( b + a) Tan A/2


''where A is the Sheeghra Kendra, a is the Ravi Manda Karna ( Sun's distance ), b the Graha Manda Karna ( distance of the planet from the Sun ) and x the Sheeghra Phalam “

Source : The Ganitha Nirnaya

Artistic Knowledge in Poetic Form

“Yatho Hasta thatho Drishti,
Yatho Drishti thatho Manah
Yatho Manah thatho Bhaava,
Yatho Bhaava thatho Rasa."

Eyes go where the hands are
Mind goeth after eyes biune
Whither Mind goeth, Bhava manifests
With Bhava, Rasa, mood is evoked.

Source : Natya Sastra

.......And the Poet of all Poets , Kavee Kaveenam, is He !

Kavim Puranam anusasitaram
Anor Aniyamsam anusmared yah
Sarvasya Dhataram acintya-rupam
Aditya-varnam tamasah parastat

The Ancient, the Poet of all Poets,
Subtler than the subtlest,
Of Form Unthinkable,
Resides in all as Love

Being the Substratum of all,
Beyond worldly desire,
And Transcendental,
Should be meditated upon.

Chaandra Siddhanta II

Chandra Siddhanta II, Theory of Luna


In the Orient, Lalla contributed heavily to the Lunar Theory, as did Newton, Ptolemy & Brahe in the Occident !

Both are  great Civilizations and none plagiarized from the other !

John Playfair, mathematician,
Extolled the Eternians,
For their possession of a Calculus
Equivalent to Trignometry.

(  Did not Einstein say
Indians taught us Maths ?
Or the great Laplace, that System Decimal
Is Indian in origin ? )

The multi step algorithms
Of mighty Hindu Astronomy
Is known as Graha Sphuta Ganita,
Base of all Panchang computations.


We have not defined Vipata Kendra,
The  Vipata Anomaly,
Vi means without
Patha means Node.

Vipata Anomaly means Angle
Between Position and Node.
This is the Second Correction,
Position reduced to Ecliptic.

Manda Anomaly means Angle
Between Position and  Aphelion
Sheeghra Anomaly means Angle
Between Position and  Sun

By Position we mean
The Position of the Planet.
Aphelion is a Point,
180 degrees away from Perihelion.


Of the Fourteen Kendras plotted
The First One deals with the Annual Equation
Moon accelerates during July
And decelerates during Jan !
First Kendra Sin ( Mr + 180 ) * 658


The Second dealt with Equation Parallactic
Sun’s perturbing action on Luna
Creates inequalities in her motion
Second Kendra Sin ( Lc - Lr ) * 121


The Third dealt with Evection,
Moon seems to be carried away
By the Sun’s celestial pull !
Third Kendra   Sin ( 2*T - Mc ) * 4467


The Fourth deals with The Variation
Moon accelerates at 0 and 180
And decelerates at 90 and 270
Fourth Kendra Sin ( 2*T + 6 Signs ) * 2145

All these Four
Are major perturbations.
Ten more are there
Needing corrections trignometric!

Anomaly is defined as the Angle
Between Position & Perihelion
There is no Eccentric Anomaly,
In Indian computations !

Chandra Siddhanta, Lunar Theory

Chandra  Sphuta Siddhanta

The Moon, in his journey of the Zodiac, through the 27 constellations, creates the 27 Nakshatras,  which have been defined as the Lunar Mansions of Hindu Astronomy, each one of them occupying 13 degrees 20 minutes of the Zodiac. 

Chandra Siddhanta, Lunar Theory

This is the Equation given for the Moon’s largest perturbation. The Moon seems to be carried away by the immense gravitational pull of the Sun, causing its Ecliptic longitude to vary as much as  1.3 degrees. This has been referred to as the third major angle, Kendra,  between Sthithi & Mandoccha in Ganitha Nirnaya and as the second Anomaly in Greek Astronomy, anomaly being the angle between position and perihelion.

Third Kendra 

Sin ( 2*T - Mc ) * 4467 

Where Mc = Chandra Madhyamam, Mean longitude of Chandra, T = Thidhi = Longitude of Chandra – Longitude of Soorya

Working on Chandra  Siddhanta,
Major Theory of the Moon,
Fourteen Kendras, angles were plotted
By ace astronomers.

Small, small Manda anomalies,
Angles between position & aphelion
As fourteen major perturbations
Of the Moon were identified !

The Essence of Sidddhantas Eighteen
Is the Sanskrit Ganita Nirnaya
Puliyoor studied  all eighteen
Plus Aryaabhaateeya and Maha Bhaskareeya.

Siddhantas  Arya, Brahma Sphuta,
Pancha Siddantika and Siddhanta Siromani,
And came out with a gem
Based on Parameswara’s  Model Geometric !

The Longitude Corrected Thrice,
Manda means Reduction to  Heliocentric
Parinathi means Reduction to  Ecliptic
And Sheeghra means Reduction to  Geocentric.

Upanishadic Equations




There is no joy in the Finite.
Na Alpe Sukham Asthi.
Infinity = Bliss
Anandam Brahma.

This may seem to the worldly wise
A too ultra-worldly statement !
But this is true indeed
And endorsed by the wise !

Embrace Infinity to enjoy
Immensity of the Cosmic
Liberty of the Transcendent
And Joy of the Immanent.


Finite indicates wordly Life,
Which is full of sorrow,
Sarvam Dukham, Sarvam Shoonyam
Sarvam Kshanikam, Sarvam Vyartham !

There is no happiness in Indra’s Heaven !
Even Emperors search for mental peace !
Na cha Indranam sukham kinchil
Na sukham Chakravartina !

Mental Peace can only be attained
If you live like a Yogi.
Sukham Asthi Viraktheshu
Muner Ekanta Jeevita.

Enlightenment = Perpetual Bliss
Sukha Neervana Roopatha !
Sensory Pleasures = Bondage
Hard Sacrifice = High Heaven




Of Relative Knowledge & Absolute Knowledge,
Apara Vidya & Para Vidya


The Knowers of Brahman
Speak of Knowledge as Twofold
Relative Knowledge & Absolute Knowledge,
Apara Vidya & Para Vidya

Ithee hi yad Brahmavido Vadanti,
Para chaiva Apara cha.
Apara Vidya = Relative Knowledge
Para Vidya = Absolute Knowledge

Chemistry, Physics, Biology et al
Are Sciences of the Relative !
Even Astronomy, Maths & Astrology
Are all Relative Knowledge !

The Fivefold Ephemeris, Pancha Anga
Is nothing but Apara Vidya
Pancha Anga means Five Limbs,
The Five Limbs of Time Eternal !

Lunation = Thidhi = 12 degrees
Lunar Longitude – Solar Longitude,
There are fifteen of them.
Known as the 15 Kalas of the Moon

Lunar Mansions = Nakshatras
There are twenty seven of them
Caused by the Moon's journey
Through the 27 constellations !

Week Day = Vara
Based on First Planetary Hour, Kala Hora.
There are 24 Kala Horas,
Dina Dwadasamso Matha Kala Hora

Eternal Combinations = Nitya Yogas
Lunar Longitude + Solar Longitude,
There are twenty seven of them.
Dealing with general characteristics of men.

Half Lunation = Karana =6 degrees
Thidhi Ardham Karanam Proktam
These Five Variables constitute
Mighty Eternal Hindu Ephemeris !

Eternal Law is Universal Religion

Religion is derived from Relegere,
Which means going back to the Source.
Go back, go back and go back,
Till you reach the Vibrationless Origin !

Eternal law is a universal religion
Embracing all Religions in its fold.
Prophets of all religions are accepted as Rishies,
And worshipped as Divine personalities !

Jesus was a yogi who declared
Aham brahmasmi as Ego sum Alpha et Omega
The Prophet was another great Yogi,
Who was an epitome of excellence in all !

Lord Buddha occupies a prominent place,
As He is part of the Ten Incarnations.
He renounced Kingdom for Enlightenment,
And imparted Wisdom as the Four Noble Truths !

Eternal law is ecumenical and syncretic,
Incorporating Sarva Dharma Samabhava.
Some are indulging in calumny against her,
Which will be an exercise in futility.

There is only One Religion,,
And that is the religion of humanity,
There is only One Language,,
And that is the Language of the Heart !

There is only One  God
And He is omnipresent.
Quintessence of all Sastras,
Do Good, Never Evil !

This is in line with Shaw,
Who averred Only One Religion,
Even though thousands of interpretations,
Of it exist in the wide world.

Love All and Serve All,
As the greatest is Intellectual Love
Educate All, as Wisdom is Guru,
The Celestial Teacher of Teachers !

Hate None, Help Ever, Hurt Never,
As Man and Self are important.
Forgive Ever, as forgiveness itself,
Is manifestation of Love Intellectual !


Sufism, the Path of Love

About Advaita Vedanta Sastra

The Philosopher is a rebel,
He is against the outworn fetishes
Of a purblind system social,
And he will fight for Justice.

God is the Second Principle,
In Advaita Vedanta Sastra !
God is partt of the Relative Triad,
Hence, only relatively real !

Absolute Brahman became Cosmic Mind,
Giving rise to Jagat, Jiva and Para.
Absolute became Relative, doing so,
And the Relative cannot be absolutely real !

The Same, the Same, friend and enemy,
Are the Same Substance and the Stuff .
Is such that the variations of form
Are unimportant indeed.

The Non Self isr defined first,
In order to differentiate it from Self.
From the Macrocosm to Microcosm.
All that you see is Non Self.

Absolute Reality and Relative Reality
Are two types of Reality
Maya, Mithya means Relative Reality
And Brahman, Absolute Reality.

Maya means everything is  Mind,
Mind is Substance, Perception is Essence.
Everything is externalised and internalised,
By Mind, the main enemy of Man !

In the Western, the Self,
Has been variously defined.
As Reason in Aristotle
And as Will Power in Nietzsche.

The Adi Sastra defined the Self,
As Attributteless,Actionless, Eternal,
Formless, Verity, Non Dual, Sublime,
Birthless, Deathless and Absolute !

Duty is divine, Work is Worship - Karma Yoga




Doing one's duty itself is Yoga,
Karthvyam Yoga Uchyathe,
This is Rationale of Karma Yoga,
Union via Altruistic Action !

Vice Admiral Nelson's words were,
" England expects every man to do his Duty "
Its meaning was clear to all,
As work is worship and duty, divine.


Result of Karma Yoga is far,
Actualising via It is difficult
Philosophic principles are hard to grasp
Hence, Intellectual Love, Vibhakti, is noblest.

Rugged path to the Unmanifest, Jnana,
Is full of knowledgeable sorrow.
Avyaktahi Gathir Dukham,
So embrace Universal Love.

Intellectuality without Love is madness,
Love without Intellectuality is superstition.
Both integrated will yield Intellectual Love,
Et Amor Iintegrate is an Indian concept.

We have  two types of duties,
Duty unto Caesar and Duty unto Self.
Duties, worldly and divine.
And we have to do both effectively.

The Caesar of the outer world,
Must be given  all that  is lawfully his
At the same time, we have to strive,
Fot Self Actualisation, which is the Goal.

In Silence divine we have to climb,
From our own earths into our heavens,
We should stop ratiocinating,
And go deep within ourselves. 


Life alone is the field of Yoga,
Not a blissful Beyond.
Practical life, with all its dangers,
Is our field,and we are gong to win.

Yoga is the Art of  Self Finding,
An integration at seven levels of Being.
Excellence in Action = Yoga,
So be thou a Yogi, Tasmat Yogi Bhava !

Dharma is Not Religion




When Russell attacked the concept of God,
Aurobindo was asked why.
He said " I cannot answer the strictures of Russell,
Because such a Semitic concept was never mine".

Dharma does not mean  Religion,
Dharma means an Enlightenment system,
With Enlightenment as its Goal,
With esoteric instructions how to.

"Through the window of Science", said Mahesh Yogi,
We see the Dawn  of the Age of Enlightenment."
TM is a method of  Scientific  Enlightenment,
And cannot be called a Scientific Religion,

So it is with Buddhism & Hinduism,
Both cannot be called as Religions,
As they are both Enlightenment systems.
With Nirvana as the Goal of Life.

The greatest Bliss is Divya Rathi,
Intercourse with the Absolute Self
Other enjoyments before thisi Supreme Bliss,
Are like light flies before  the Sun

It has to be so, as He is defined
As Rasa Swaroopa, Delight Personified
Why did the One become the  Many ?
For Fun, Rasa, Raso Vai Sahah !

Sanskrit for Enlightenment is Nirvana,
Which in Buddhist terms means Release,
From the Eternal Cycle of Recurrence,
And in Hindu terms, Merger into Brahman !


Equal Vision of Enlightenment Systems,
Is the real Sarva Dharma Samabhava.
Enlightenment systems should be fostered,
For , they alone can save the world !

India is  the Land of Dharma,
This is the land where Vedas and Upanishads,
First saw  the Light and where,
Infinity, Zero and Decimals took birth.

She is the Guru of all nations,
With Her Redeeming Philosophy,
She will lead all nations to World Peace !
And Intellectual Love will reign supreme.

Another Equation, World = Family..




The Precessional Cycle of 25920 years
Has been computed by Great Geometer,
And expressed as Thy Will be done,
As in Heaven, so on Earth.

On Earth,as it is in Heaven,
As Above , so Below,
Is the Law of Correspondences,
As the Celestial influences the Terrestrial.

All are brethren and  all religions,,
Are so many radii of One Circle,
Designed to lead Ṁan from Life's Circumference,
To the Central Light, the Absolute Self !

Ecumenism and Syncretism,
Sarva Dharma Samabhava,
Is the Child of both,
Gnosticism and Indian Philosophy !

The Equation, World = Family,
Vasudha Eva Kudumbakam,
Was voiced in India long ago
That we are all brethren.

When Jews were persecuted all over,
India welcomed them with open arms.
Love and mutual respect hold absolute sway,
As these two nations showed by example !

No Crusades, no Clash of Civilizations,
And Zion became India's close ally.
The Two Mothers of religions,
Have tremendous similarities.

Old Testament are similar to Vedas,
Kabalah is the Western Yoga.
Both are intellectual races,
Science and Philosophy are their forte.

How Karma shapes Destiny



Man transgresses Eternal laws
And wonders when Fate chastises !
We know evil and resist good,
But the Law always has its way.

When a man performs action,
Positive and Negative effects incur,
In this fight between Conscience
And Expedience, making balancing difficult.

What is Sacred Balance ?
It is Art of Balancing,
Material and Spiritual,
Expedience and Conscience.

Three types of Karma are formed,
Drida, Adrida and Dridadrida,
Represented in Philosophy and Astro
As Sins, Prarabda, Agami and ,Sanchita,

Three Astro Systems of Prediction,
Dasa, Gochara and Ashtaka Varga,
Represent these Three Karmas,
And are diagnostic tools in prognostication.

Dasa system represents Drida,
Gochara system represents Adrida,
Ashtaka Varga system represents Dridadrida,
In the threefold karma classification.

A crime, committed with malice aforethought,
Generates Drida,Prarabda Karma !
Which is shown in horoscope as Dasa,
Which indicates ineluctable results.

So inevitable effects are signified by Dasa,
Its suffering due to premeditated crimes.
The Self within is non responsible,
And the native continues to suffer !

That which cannot be cured
Must be endured !
Showing that even Lord will not forgive,
Cold blooded crimes.

On the contrary, for manslaughter,,
The Law, we know , is not so rigid.
Such crimes are Adrida,
And represented by Gochara / Transit.

What is Fate ?



In order to explain Fate
We should define our terms.
Here are some definitions
Which describe Fate entire !

It is Universal Will,
Which manifests as Fate !
Divine Providence coincides
With operation of natural causes.

Divine Providence does not keep,
Road menders on her highway.
O Destiny display Thy Hand,
That Universally Willed, must be.


That awful and supreme Power,
Which all Poets call Fate,
Who dwells in darkness,
Above Zeus and His  Court.

Neither  the Trinitarian Unity,
Nor the lord of Heaven
Can go against Fate,
Fate is an unchalllenged Deity !

All things are decided by Fate
It was known what each man would be !
Providence protects the righteous,
Even though Its ways are inscrutable !

The Universal Will will not lead you,
Where Universal Grace cannot keep you !
The Law rules all and is all !
Nature and Destiny are one.

Does misfortune befall you ? Good !
It is part of Great Fate of  Universe,
Ordained to you from Beginning.
It is a part of the great web.

The Seer, Who Becomes Everywhere,
Has ordered all, from years sempiternal.
Nothing human can hinder Fate,
As there are no humans without defects.

Understand what you sow you reap,
This is Nature's fundamental Law !
No despotic power is given to humans,
They will have to reap rewards later.

This mighty Law of Cause and Effect,
This glorious Law of Nemesis,Retribution,
Is this Grand Law of Causation,
Known as the Universal Law of Karma !

Justice rules all with weight inexorable,
Though its operations are unknown.
Nemesis, implacable and retributive,
Follows man like a resident spectre.

Who structured this mighty Law?
Who became planets to dispense Karma ?
Who is the Cause of Universal Order ? ,
We need to fly to Providence and Deity !

So Karma shapes Destiny
Karma makes us Architects of Fate !
Karma is greater than even God,
So let us eschew evil and do good.

Absolute Reality became Relative Reality,
Universal Love became planets and Zodiac,
To dispense the Universal Justice of Karma,
And to uphold Universal Justice, which He is !

And He created the Twelve Tribes of Zion,
Emblematic of the Twelve Houses of Zodiac,
The Twelve Solar and Lunar months of Hindu Calendar,
And the Twelve Suns of Indian Astronomy.

The only language in which He speaks to Man,
Is the Language of the Heavens !
So,Science and Wisdom of Heavens, Astronomy and Astrology,
 Assume great importance in superconscient learning.

The Seven Concentric Sheaths, the Sapta Koshas



From where did the controversial Jesus
Get the Kingdom of Heaven concept ?
He came to Kashmir and was initiated,
Into the highest Esoteric Knowledge !

The Absolute Self is enveloped
By Five Concentric Sheaths !
Sheaths material, vital, mental,
Blissful & intellectual !

Two more Sheaths - Being and Knowledge,
Were added to make it Seven,
As Bliss is part of the Absolute Triad,
The Trinity of Being, Knowledge, Bliss !

These are our Seven Sheaths,
Which envelop our Soul, the Self.
Sarvam Avrutha Thishtathi,
It is enveloped by All.

We are active in the outer Sheaths,
And asleep in the inner ones,
Explains our material Consciousness,
And atrophied spiritual consciousness !

If we can move over to the inner sheaths four by Yoga,
We can get access to heavenly, blissful regions !
Jesus called the Intellectual and Bliss Sheaths, near to Self,
As the liberating, luminous Kingdom of Heaven !

The Kingdom of Heaven is within thee,
Know thyself and find It ! So let us move,
Our Consciousness from outer to inner,
And achieve Enlightenment Divine.

Full application of the Law Of Epistemic Correlation !




Scholars of Indian Philosophy
Report that it is a Grand Mixture,
Of Many Sastras, Sciences Intuitive,
And many Sacred, Eternal Arts.

Science, Philosophy, Literature,
Mythology, Poetry and Art.
Astronomy,Maths, Astrology,
Psychology, Yogic Psychology et al

Full application of the Law,
Of  Epistemic Correlation !
'All Knowledge is One Knowledge',
Was  generated by 'Ekam Tad Sarvam'.

All sciences study Being,
Physics is Science of Being as Matter.
Biology is Science of Being as Life,
And Astronomy is Science of Being, as Heavens.

But First Science, Vedanta Sastra,
Is Science of Being as Being,
In its Pure Existential State,
And it is as Absolute Being.

So we have many sciences,
One Absolute and Many Relatives,
One Para and Many Apara Vidyas,
The True Structure of Knowledge.

Summing up, Sastras are many,
Grasp their quintessential wisdom.
And strive for Self Actualisation,
Under a bona fide Divine Master !

Western concept of Science,
Differs from the Indian slightly.
Indian incorporates Morality,
Which is missing in Western.

( Sasanthi iti Sastram ! )

The Absolute, One Without A Second



The Condition of Infinity stipulates that,
There can only be One Infinite, not two.
If there is a Second Infinite,
It will reduce the Infinite to finity.

So Infinite Being has to be One, Wrrithout a Second,
Without any Duality or Multiplicity.
So this Equation, Being = Unity, Non Duality,
Was revealed as Ekam Eva Adviteeyam Brahma.

Once, a priest had a dream,
The Lord wanted to play Chess.
The priest arranged for everything,
As he wanted it to a Great Event.

The priest's friend told him he is wasting time,
He will play with whom? if He be One Without a Second ?
The priest understood the import of this definition,
And jocularly remarked that He is so helpless !

The Equation, Individual Self = Absolute Self,
Was  revealed as Ayam Atma Brahma.
Says the Quantum Physicist,  Prof Shroedinger,
This Equation has a very deep insight.

The individual souls are not divorced from Brahman,
For it is Brahman itself which became the Relative Triad,
Of Jagat, Jiva and Para.Hence the statement,
Jeevo Brahmaiva Na Apara, is valid philosophically.

Mind is defined as a steady stream of thoughts,
And the first thought that occurs is the I Thought.
On Self Enquiry this I Thought reveals itself as Brahman,
So we have another Equation, I Thought = Being.

Tat Tvam Asi was translated by Huxley as That Art Thou,
As Thou art part and parcel of Being, Thou = Being.
This is a simple equation which many cannot understand,
But which is written on great temples like Sabarimala.

Quantum physicists say Consciousness is Fundamental,
So Consciousness = Being was revealed as Prajnanam Brahma.
Consciousness is the Root, Consciousness is the Substratum,
And  it is Consciousness which had become all this that is.

Intellectual Love,Vibhakti, is the greatest quality




If you know that I and Thou art  One,
Thou art a Philosopher.
Sanskrit words for I and Thou are  Njan and Nee,
So Jnani means a Philosopher.

Philosophy without Love
Is defined as madness.
So Philosophic Love is the answer,
And it is this Love Intellectual.

Philosophy is an intellectual science,
It is the completion of Science,
In the Synthesis of Wisdom,
And is the Science of all sciences.

Vi Bhakti is Vedantic Bhakti,
Bhakti means Love,
Vedanta is Science of Being,
So ViBhakti = Love Intelllectual.

The Lord hath declared
That Jnani is beloved to Me
That Jnani who loveth,
Bird, Man & Beast.

Intellectual Love manifests,
As Love of beauteous Nature,
As Love of Philosophic Deity,
And this should become Universal.

He who worships Sree Chakra,
Worships the external symbol first.
Then worships respectable society
Which is the true Sree Chakra.

Serve the Divine in Man,
Serve the Positive in Man,
For, Jana Seva = Janardhana Seva
And Manava Seva = Madhava Seva

Intellectual Love should expand to National Love
To redeem the nation.
Intellectual Love should expand to Universal Love
To redeem the world.

Another Major Revealed Equation





Truth,Wisdom,Infinity= Being,
Satyam, Jnanam, Anantham Brahma


The best definitions of the Divine are

First,  The Sevenfold Chord of Being ( Aurobindo )
Second  Being, Knowledge, Bliss. ( Upanishads )
Third  Truth,Wisdom,Infinity  ( Upanishads )
Fourth An Infinite Sphere ( Hermes )   
Fifth The Great Geometer ( Plato )
Sixth Infinite Being, One Without A Second ( Upanishads )

Another Equation, Truth = Being,
Was revealed as Satyam Brahma.
Truth is Ineffable to Thought
And to Speech a wonder indefinable.

Truth is indeed omnipotent,
And beyond vicissitudes.
Beyond Contradiction,
Vast, Universal and one.

Truth is Transcendence,
Its Pure Consciousness,
Is manifest in Avastha Traya,
The relative states three.

Another Equation, Wisdom = Being,
Was revealed as Jnanam Brahma.
Wisdom is veiled Wealth,
And the generatrix of   Fame.

Wisdom conferreth  immortality,
And is deemed Eternal.
Wisdom is the only wealth,
And the Teacher of Teachers.

Without her, man is animal,
She is organised life.
She is best Celestial Deity,,
As She is adored by all !

Another Equation, Truth = Infinity,
Was revealed as Anantham Brahma.
Infinity is a numberless number
Which when subtracted from Itself, giveth Iitself.

Infinity is  the beginning of all,
Opposites coincide at Iinfinity.
Infinity postulates the Non Dual,
As a second Infinite will make it finite.

Deity,the Great Geometer, is a great definition,
And is the most popular in the Occident.
The Divine Geometricises, Deus Geometrisat,
As He is playing with Space, Time and Geometry !

Other Revealed Equations.


i

The Unbounded Energy we are confronted with ,
Of a Spaceless and Timeless Existence,
Which alone sustains Space, Time and Cosmos,
Is an equal and impartiail Mother, Samam Brahma.

This Equality Equation, Equality  = Being,
Which means that Absolute is Equal,
And Equanimous, is the precursor,
To The Marxist Brahman / Divine Communism Book

An egalitarian society was formed,
By this equation glorious.
Another definition, Yoga = Equality,
Added fuel to the fire.

So Socialism was born in India
And all men were deemed equal,
Before the Divine and this Equation,
Did not conflict with Materialism.

Another great equation, Silence = Being,
Was revealed as Nisabdam Brahma.
From this equation arose great Aphorisms,
Like " Speech is Silver, Silence Gold "

Observing Silence is a Yogic Method,
As the Self is the Silence beyond Time.
In Silence, we have to climb,
From our Earth, to Heaven.
 
Mouna is Sanskrit for Silence,
And the Silent Ones were Munis.
Fixed in calms of Contemplation,
Were the munis of yore.

Munis sit in a state of,
Superconscient Silence.
For, the Self is an utter Being,
And all these, Its Becomings.

Another Equation, Overmind = Being,
Was revealed to Aurobindo as Vijnanam Brahma.
Overmind is the vast Organiser,
Of many potentialities of Existence.

Revealed Equations of Brahman, The Absolute



Many celestial equations were revealed,
In Yogic flashes of heightened Consciousness,
To the psychic researchers , the Seer  Poets,
About the Absolute Nature of Pure Being.

These philosophic equations,
Are as great as the scientific ones.
For, Science deals with the Relative,
While Philosophy, the Absolute.

What the Poet Seers cognised,
Came to be known as the Vedas.
And these Equations Divine,
As Great  Aphorisms, Maha Vakyas !

The First Equation, Matter = Being,
Was revealed as Padartham Brahma,
Matter is the final precipitate,
And the densest form of Being !

The Second Equation, Life = Being,
Was cognised as Jeevan Brahma.
And the Third, Mind  = Being,
Was heard as Manam Brahma.

The Supernal Equation, Supermind= Being,
Was revealed to Aurobindo in higher states.
Supermind is the link betwixt Earth and Heaven,
Between Absolute Being and Relative Being.

The Fifth Equation, Being = Bliss,
Was revealed as Anandam Brahma.
From Bliss ariseth all, in Bliss all exist,
And into Bliss all merge back.

The Sixth Equation, Consciousness = Knowledge,
Was revealed as Chit Brahma !
Knowledge is structured in the Indestructible,
Where all the Laws of Nature abide !

The Seventh Equation, Existence = Being,
Was revealed as Sat Brahma !
Absolute is like a log, It cannot create,
But is the Base of all manifestations.


The Eighth Equation, Intellectual Love = Being,
Was revealed as Dhaishanika Premam Brahma !
All Conquering is Intellectual Love,
As it uses Logic, Inductive and Deductive.




Forget not the Eighth Equation
Intellectual Love is great indeed.
Only with this quality,
Can we get World Peace.

Mind is Omnipotent & Psychic Healing

Many Aspects & Manifestations of the One



They see the Self, in the Self, by the Self !
All betrays him who sees all elsewhere,
Than in the Self! What can entire Veda,
Do for him, who sees all in Non-Self ?

The Eternian sees everything,
Under the aspect of Eternity,
Under the aspect of Zodiac,
And under the aspect of Love.

Thou manifested as Bhagavan Vyasa,
To write Epic Poems and Mythology.
The essence of Wisdom was underlined,
"Helping is Merit, Torturing is Demerit".

Thou incarnated as Bhagavan Kanada,
To impart the Wisdom of Vaisesika.Sastra.
Thou promulgated the Fivefold Atomic Theory
That atoms of Elemental Five make up Reality !

In Thy Manifestation as Lord Krishna,
Wisdom and Statesmanship met in Thee !
Initiated into the Mysteries of Yoga by Sandeepini,
Thou ruled as the greatest Philosopher King ever.

In Thy Incarnation as Lord Rama,
Wisdom and Sacrifice met in Thee !
Initiated into the Mysteries of Yoga by Vasishta,
Thou showed how a Philosopher King can sacrifice.

Thou manifested as Bhagavan Buddha,
To impart the Wisdom of  Nirvana Sastra
Renunciation Personified, Perfect.Exemplar,
Thou showed that Love is All Conquering !

In Thy Aspect as Death ineluctable,
Thou comest as welcome release !
Thou declared "I am Death",
So poets symbolise Thee  as Evil Tooth!

In Thy Aspect as Prakriti  Sagacious,
Thou art both terrible and sweet.
Thy natural calamities terrify all,
While Thy beauty, magnificent dazzle all.

Mythology is Symbolic !




The Bull, Nandi, who tenants Siva Temples,
Represents our animal, negative aspect.
This bestial, dark  aspect should wither away,
To have a Vision Divine of the Most Auspicious, Siva.

Symbolic is Mythology,
And emblematic of philosophic verities.
Esoteric Meaning is revealed,
By Grace of the Guru or Covenant.

All Great World Literature,
Were deliberately written darkly,
Lest vulgar and unpurified spirits,
Abuse sanctity  of Wisdom Divine.


Wisdom should never be revealed,
To the vulgar and the unpurified.
Only to the virtuous, celibates, donators,
 And other purified souls..

Rishis hide Esoterica,
To fool the ignorant.
Only the ignorant,
Cherish the literal value !

In India, Science, Philosophy, Literature,
Poetry, Mythology, Art, Astrology et al,
Are all ONe, as ALL Are One,
And as One Knowledge is All Knowledge.

Church's function not to teach Man Life's Mysteries,
Only to see their flock reach a level of Purification,
Esoterica begins, where Exoterica ends,
And then Deity will lead aspirant on to Perfection.

"Once a Seer-Poet, always a Seer-Poet",
Is a statement unfathomable.
The Eternal Law allows not to negate,
Affirmations or Covenants, done earlier.

The 27 Constellations of Hindu Astrology

The Relative Manifestation, Saguna Brahman




The One Willed " May I become Many ",
Existence multiplied Itself for Self Delight !
Absolute Being became Relative Being,
In a process called the Relative Manifestation.

Can a part of the Ocean become an iceberg ?
That is how Nirguna Brahman turns Saguna !
Absolute Brahman became Jagat, Jiva and Para,
And Space, Time and Causality, which conditions them. 

Universe, Ego and  Supreme,
Three Ideas of Reason of  Kant,
Three Perpetual Symbols of Aurobindo,
Is the Eternal Triad, Jagat, Jiva and Para.

The Absolute One became the Relative Many,
It is the One which is potentially Many.
And the Many,which is actually One,
For, the Absolute One is All, Ekam Tad Sarvam.

In the language of Bhakti Yoga,
Did He create the Universe ? No.
He became the Universe,
He became all this that is, Sarvam Brahm.

Everything is created by Time,
Everything is preserved by Time,
Everything is destroyed by Time,
Verily, Time is important indeed

In Thy Rajas dominant Creative Aspect, as Lord Brahma,
Thy Faces Four are the Fourfold Veds !
Pre Destination is Thine and what Thou writest  on one's head,
Becomes Fate,the inevitable concatenation of circumstances !


In Thy Sattwa dominant Preservative  Aspect, as Lord Vishnu,
Thou preservest all by the principle of  Universal Love.
Love is the golden chain which binds Society together,
And Thy ever conquering  Law of Love is the winner ultimately.


In Thy Tamas dominant Destructive  Aspect, as Lord Siva,
Thou indulgest in Creative Destruction.
As such, Thou art Recreator of things  in perfect Wisdom,
And Thy Cosmic Dance is the Dance of Sub Atomic Matter !



Unitary Power, Prana

HIndu Numerology Lesson 8

Manifestations of the Divine - Sastra Teachers



He manifested as different Sastra Teachers,
To teach a benighted humanity about Sciences Intuitive.
Study of the Sastras, Sound Symbols of the Absolute,
Can pave the way for Transformation or Transfiguration

"Live according to the Sastras, tasmat sastram pramanam te,
He who contravenes its commands, gaineth not Earth or Heaven ".
Wisdom is His Quality, Wisdom supreme is He,
And it is His Dharma to protect and preserve Wisdom Divine".

In Thy Manifestation as Bhagavan Gautama,
Thou imparted the Wisdom of Nyaya Sastra.
Nyaya was founded initially to defend Vedic concepts,
And to promote the Science of Thought's regulative principles !

Qualified Non-Dualism, It asserts that waves belong to Ocean,
But the Ocean does not belong to the Wave.

The Different Aspects of Absolute Being



One person asked an Eternian,
"Why do you worship many Gods?"
Pat came the bewildering answer,
" I worship One, which manifests as Many".

I am a husband, brother, son,
Uncle, teacher and social worker.
I have many aspects,
So too, the Divine has many aspects !

For sheer Delight of Being, Rasa,
The Pure Existent multiplied Itself.
And became billions of forms,
So that it could actualise itself multitudinously.

The 33 Deities of the Eternal Law,
Are 33 esoteric principles.
Twelve Suns, Rudras Eleven,
Eight Vasus and two Physicians !

The Myriad Manifestations of Absolute Truth




In his " Apologia For Poetry ", the noble Sir Philip Sydney,
Defended Poetry against the attack of a critic, Glosson.
Glosson said that Poets are incorrigible liars and pied pipers,
Which Sydney countered saying they were Vates, Diviners !

Averred Sydney " It pleased the Heavenly Deity, through Homer et al,
To bequeath to us all Knowledge - logic, rhetoric, philosophy, natural and moral.
These sciences are called by Indians as Sastras,
Logic is Nyaya Sastra and Natural Philosophy, Sankhya Sastra.

Eighteen such Sastras grace Indian Philosophy,
Indian  Philosophy is a humiliating term given,
To the eighteen methods of gaining Knowledge,
Science of the Absolute and Affiliated Sciences may be a better term.

He who has undergone Divine Transmutation,
And who can transmute others, is Bhagavan !
In Bhakti Yogic terms, they are all Incarnations,
Either Partial or Full, Amsa or Poorna Avatars!

(  Bhavam Nihatya Yogam Dadati iti Bhagah  )

In Thy Manifestation as Bhagavan Sankara,
Thou imparted the Wisdom of Advaita Vedanta Sastra.
Thou revived the Wisdom of the Absolute and Relative,
And protected that system that taketh you to Unitive Knowledge.


In Thy Incarnation as Bhagavan Aurobindo,
Thou bestowed the Knowledge of Integral Yoga.
People were arguing about different Yogas,
But Thou integrated them, embracing Him in all.

In Thy Manifestation as Bhagavan Kapila,
Thou bequethed the Wisdom of Sankhya Sastra.
Know 24 principles, live in Rhythm with Natural Law,
With  Intellectual Love and be eternally free !


In Thy Incarnation as Bhagavan Satya Sai,
Thou taught us the value of Intellectual Love.
Thou declared " Love is Divine Medicine",
And that Love Universal alone can redeem !


In Thy Manifestation as Bhagavan Dhanvantari,
Thou imparted the Knowledge of Ayurveda Sastra,
Thus medical knowledge was revealed first,
And Thou extolled Continence as a Panacea for all.



In Thy Manifestation as Bhagavan Patanjali,
Thou bestowed the Wisdom of Yoga Sastra.,
With a single definition, Thou adumbrated Yoga,
Extirpation of Thought Waves is Yoga.

Secrets of Poetry Revealed !







Western Poets invoke Muses,
( "Sing, Heavenly Muse, how on the top" ),
Indian Poets invoke Deity of Poetry,
( " Dance on my tongue, O Saraswathi ")                                           
Such Yogic methods are mandatory,
For the poetic process to blossom !

This request sent to Poetry Personified,
Sees Inspiration invade his being.
Hippocrene, the Fountain of Poesy, floweth,
Out of him, bewildering all !

( Padmapeedathil Irikkum Devee
  Pattada Bhangi Charthum Devee
  Nityamai ennude Navinmel
  Nrithamadanam Saraswatee  )

Poetry is the generatrix of Music,
Lyrics is nothing but Lyric Poetry.
Even though Music differs from Poetry,
Poetry is present in Music as Lyrics.

 Overmind has been defined,
As an Ocean of  Stable Lightnings.
With its brilliant, golden lid,
It hides the Truth Supramental.

Higher than the Intuitive Mind,
Higher than the Higher Mind,
Higher than the Illumined Mind,
Lies the Overmind, Vijnanam Brahma !

Overmind Poetry need not be mystic
Some mundane  poems do stir us.
Overmind Aesthesis should be present,
For a poem to be accepted as Overmind Poetry.

Nature was defined by Poets,
As an enigmatic Poesy.
Let us understand Prakriti,
To comprehend Purusha better.

As a result  of new yogic methods,
Aurobindo's mind hit the Ground State.
The Divine instructed him to write,
And the results were Savitri and Life Divine.

Poetry should initiate us,
To the higher reaches of  Unitive Knowledge.
On Himalayan heights divinely sang,
She acts propaedeutic to Philosophy.

Poets are aware of the Superconscious Might,
Which uses them as a Centre and lighthouse.
So, for the poetic process to unfold,
Be united with the Self, Yoga Yukto Bhava !

The Science of Overmind Poetry, Atheeta Manas Kavya Sastra



Origin of  Poetry

Pegasus, the winged horse of Grecian Mythology,
Tapped Mount Helicon with his hoof,
And from that exact spot arose,
The Fountain of Poesy, the Hippocrene !

Shelley opined that Francis Bacon,
The Father of English Prose,
Was a Poet inimitable,
Because his prose appeared to be poetic !

Poetry evolved from Sorrow
From Shoka arose Shloka.
The First Poet was pained,
When a bird was struck by an arrow.

Never Kill, Ma Nishada,he cried out,
For, it is against Law of Conscience.
In the Orient, he is the First Poet,
And his poem, Ramayana, First Poem.

Milton was blind and suffered a lot,
Out of his sufferings, came the Paradise Lost.
Dante was a mendicant, with a love tragedy,
And out of his strife, came the Divine Comedy.

Poontanam's son died early,
Out of his sorrow came the Njanapana.
Melpathur was afflicted by Arthritis,
Out of his frustrations, arose the Narayaneeyam.

That is why Adversity has been defined as divine,
And Melancholy as Sage and Holy !
Spiritual development accelerates under Adversity,
Whose positive aspect is unknown to Prosperity !

Secret of Overmind Poetry



What is the Secret of  Poetry?
Let us start from basics.
Why is Kavya Sastra, the Science of  Poetry,
Considered as the greatest Science?


Beauty walking celestial is Poetry,
Wisdom's Center and Circumference,
Cent percent divine and Great Healer,
And foreseer of Scientific Knowledge.

My friend once mentioned
Poets had some great experience.
They had transcendental experience,
When Mind hit the Quantum Ground State.

Quantum Ground State has beendefined,
As the Field of All  Possibilities.
As the State of Least Excitation of Consciousness,
And it can transmute men into poets and philosophers !

Aurobindo experienced three of the Four,
Faculties of the Intuitive Reason,
Revealation, Inspiration and Intuition,
Known to Rishies as Ila, Saraswati and Sarama,

Ila is Revealation,
Saraswati is Inspiration,
Sarama is Intuition,
All of them belong  to Psychic Research,

Kalidasa's experience of Transcendence,
Was symbolically depicted as a meeting,
With the Mother of World Poetry, Kali,
Who inscribed greatest mantra on his tongue

Mother  Kali is emblematic of the Ground State,
And Kalidasa, the common man turned poet.
The fountain of Poesy that flowed out of him.
Was due to divination by the Ground State.

The Language of the Philosophers,
Poetry is the Revealation of the Heart !
She can survive Cycles of Time,
And perceive the Celestial Diameter !








The Supra Rational Mystery




Einstein called Universe Finite Unbounded !
Universe, in its aspects, as structure or as Energy,
Appears as an indeterminate determination,
Implying a Supra Rational Mystery at the base.

Beholding the Universe , Sankara exclaimed,
"Wonder of Wonders and indefinable".
As Supra Cosmic Transcendence is suprarational,
So too Mystery of Universe must ultimately be so !

A boundless finite, said one psychic scientist,
At the end of his research   on Consciousness.
Paradoxical, but necessary expressions which tell,
That we are dealing with a Suprarational Mystery.

Man possesses two types of MIND,
Rational Mind and Mind Intuitive.
Science and Technology belong to Mind Rational,
Poetry and Philosophy, to Intuitive Mind.

Behind  phenomenal world is Reality Transcendent,
Which Intuition alone can see.
Absolute Intuition is clearly the way out,
Not Antinomic Reason.

Intuition is defined as the Eye Of Wisdom,
When Reason plays, Intuition is silent.
Intuition has been defined as that faculty of the Absolute,
Which perceives the Absolute, as the Absolute.

As if the Ultimate Verity needs proof !
Omnipotent Being is proof of Itself !
The Lord is the All and more than the All,
Ans that which exceeds and trancends the All !

Forgive my mistakes !



Forgive my three mistakes, cried the Seer-Poet Vyasa,
First, I defined the Indefinable Thee !
Second, I attributed Form to the Formless Thee,
And I limited the Illimitable Thee within a Temple.

Great minds think alike and Melpathur did the same.
" In my Ignorance, I described the Indescribable !"
The Soul identifying with the body is Ignorance, Avidya,
And Soul identifying with the Self is Wisdom,Vidya.

The Constellations are Thy Teeth, Tharaganascha Radana,
They keep the same distance from one another,
Never coming closer to one another, nor moving furthur asunder,
Showing Thy mathematical precision, O Great Geometer !

From the  Moon, I will learn about Brahman,
Like the Fifteen Lunations, the Becomings of the Moon,
Affecteth not the Moon,in her pristine state,
So also Thy Becomings, affect Thee not, as Pure Being.

From the Sun, I will learn about Thee
Thy Representative and only visible Deity
Myriads of ponds show his many reflections,
But he remains, One and Non-Dual, like Thee !

Thou hast been defined as Time, Kala Ityalapanti,
As Above, So Below, the Terrestrial follows the Celestial !
Electrons and planets revolve in elliptical orbits,
As Thy Mathematical Symbol is the Ellipsoid Linga !

Unaware of Thee, many luxuriate in Sorrow,
All sciences intuitive, Sastras, have been revealed  by Thee,
Who doth emparadise my meditative mind,
Thy Saguna Aspect is greater than Thy Nirguna !

Thou hast been defined as Sound Absolute, Sabda Brahmeti,
Study of Sastras have  been defined as Sabda Brahman.
It is a great preparation for Absolute Actualisation,
The Yogi follows Thine "Let Sastras be your guide ".

Diurnal motion eternally keepeth  Time,
Luminaries and planets obey Thy instructions.
Thou hast been defined as Atom, Anu iti,
And Universe expands, as per Thy Universal Will !

Aurobindo Hypothesis VII - Everything is Being




In the Beginning, there was One Existence,
The Absolute, the Perfect, the Alone
 In the Middle,there are many existences,
The Relative, the Imperfect, the Multitude.

In the End, there will be the Pure Existent,
The Absolute, the Perfect, the Alone.
For, Purusha is Self-contained Existence,
And an Absolute, which embraces Relativity !


Cause, Effect, Causality are all He,
Absolute Brahman alone exists in se.
Whom even Fourfold Veds cannot define,
As He transcends spatio-temporal language.

When we say, First,the Being and then the Becoming,
Fall we into illusion of  language spatio-temporal !
Everlasting is phenomenon of the Universe,
As everlasting as the Silence beyond Time.

If Matter can neither be created nor destroyed,.
 If Energy can neither be created nor destroyed,
Then Self also cannot be either created or destroyed
As these three fall under the divisions of Being.

If the Law of Conservation of Reality be true,
That Matter, Energy, Self et al are conserved, not destroyed,
It can be deduced by Logic that all are conserved,
Being, Knowledge, Bliss, Supermind, Life, Mind and Matter !

This corroborates the mighty statement of Gita,
"Know That to be Iindestructible,
By which all this is pervaded ",
As Brahman is indestructible, Aksharam Brahma !

( Avinasi tu tat viddhi
  Yena Sarvam idam tatam }

Bhartri Hari Hypothesiss II - Self Actualisation Priority, Fortune & Wealth ,Secondary & Tertiary.



Bhartri Hari was controversial,
He who said everything is Economics,
And that Fortune is greatest,
Ultimately said Kaivalya is the Goal !


At bottom of Need Hierarchy Scale,
We have the basic physiological needs,
For which wealth is important,
Hence he extolled the virtues of Wealth.


He who has wealth  is aristocratic,
He is the scholar, full of virtue.
He is the silver tongued orator,
As all virtues are based on Wealth.

( Yaasyasthi Vitham sa nara kuleena
Sa Panditha sa Sruthavan gunajna.
Sa eva Vaktha, sa cha Darshaneeya,
Sarve Gunan Kanchanam asrayanti. ).

But Fortune is an invisible Goddess,
Which no Wealth can  court !
Confluence of Health, Wealth and Wisdom,
Is defined as Fortune.

He who has Fortune is aristocratic,
He is the scholar, full of virtue.
He is the silver tongued orator,
All virtues are based on Fortune.

Despite being graced by Lakshmi,
One felt that mental peace is lacking.
So he consulted Yoga and She told him
"There is no happiness under the Sun".

"There is no happiness in Heaven
Even Emperors are unhappy.
Only when Great Enemy, Mind, is won,
Can Happiness or Bliss reign supreme.

The truly fortunate one is the Yogi,
Who had conquered this master enemy..
For the noblest conquest is conquest of mind,
Which is Enlightenment, Kaivalya,itself !".

( Brahmakshraam pavanam ucharanta
Brahmaamasmeethi vibhavayanta

The Mathematical, Absolute Brahman



Any number into Infinity is Infinity,
Any number into Zero is Zero
Then what is Zero into Infinity?
Mathematically, an Indeterminate.

Brahman has been defined as Infinity (Anantam Brahma )
And also as Zero ( Shoonyam ennum chilar )
So, what is He really?
Philosophically, an Indeterminate.


Ganitha Sastra is the Science of magnitude,
The Science of the more or less,
The Science of quantities,
But, is the Science of the Infinite !

Universe has neither Center nor Circumference.
It would have had a Center, if Circumference existed.
Since it cannot be enclosed within any Center or Circumference
It would be unintelligible, without the Absolute , being both.

The Absolute is an Infinite Sphere,
Center everywhere, Circumference nowhere.
This is the second best Definition,
The first being Being-Knowledge-Bliss !


At Infinity, Center and Circumference are one,
Maxima and minima coincide.
Science and Art meet at Infinity,
Past, Present and Future become one.

Maths became Meta Maths,
When Godel declared that Truth,
Cannot be represented by finitude,
As it is non finite and transcendental !

Yaska Hypothesis - Science of Definition , Nirukta Sastra

Science of Definition, Nirukta Sastra,
Was well developed by Yaska.
It was started to define Vedic concepts,
And to refute the Non-Vedic.

{ Vasti tasya Niruktam tu
Veda Nirvachanam Sphutam )

What is the Definition of Definition?
It is Genus et differentia.
" Man is a political animal"
Satisfies the condition stated.

( animal is the genus & political , differentia )

But Brahman, the Summum Genus, is Indefinable,
As it has no proximate genus !
How can the One, which became an innumerable multitude,
Sastisfy the condition of genus et differentia?

Best definition  of Absolute Brahman,
Was given by the poet, Aurobindo.
It was defined as the Sevenfold Chord of Being,
With lowest term as Matter and highest, pure Being !

Previous best was Being-Knowledge-Bliss,
The Upanishadic Sat Chit  Anandam Brahma,
Which was extended, incorporating four more,
Life, Mind, Matter and Supermind.

Sages spoke of It negatively, Neti, Neti,
Said It is not this, It is not that.
They also spoke of It positively, Iti, Iti,
They said It is this, It is that, It is all !

Brahman, the Absolute, is Life, is Mind,is Matter,
Is Supermind, is Cosmic Delight, is Sat Chit Ananda.
But then, Absolute Brahman cannot be defined,
Not even by our broadest definition of Sat Chit Ananda.

Trilogy of Books of Ayurveda, the Brihat Trayee




It is said that the Greeks acquired an insight into Medicine, only after Alexander’s invasion of India, only after the secrets of the Atharva Veda were revealed to them. It is said of this Holistic Science of Life that it originated from the Atharva Veda and the Upanishads,  Atharva Vedasu Upanisadsu pragulpannah.

Naturopathy - The Prophylactic Aspect of Ayurveda

Naturopathy or Prakrithi Therapy is the Swastha Vritta ( Prophylactic
Aspect ) of the Science of Life.

The Five Great Elements are the Five Doctors ( Annam Brahma ). Food is
medicine and medicine is food. By food we mean Naturopathic food, the food
that cometh from Nature. The Five Great Elements ( Pancha Maha Bhootas ) are
prior to everything. Hence they are known as the Five Great Doctors ( Annam
Hi Bhoothanam Jyeshtyam Thasmad Sarvoushadhamuchyathe ).

The Five Great Doctors can cure any disease. Exposure to Sunlight is
Thejopasana. The body gets abundance of Vitamin D. Daily at least 10 minutes
one should bathe in the Sun.

The Fivefold Worship of Naturopathy

Thejopasana - Sun bathing. Sunlight is a rich source of Vitamin D


Akasopasana - Fasting, the best medicine. During fasting the digestive
system gets rest and diseases like ulcer are cured by Fasting.

Jalopasana - Water is a universal medicine. At least 12 glasses of water
should be taken in daily and exercises like swimming are excellent.


Vayopasana - Getting fresh air is a must.

Prithyopasana - Fruits and vegetables cometh from Nature and are rich in
vitamins, minerals and proteins. They contain phytochemicals which are
cancer or disease preventing.

The Ayurvedic principle, Lankhanam Param Oushadham is well endorsed by
Paracelsus, " Fasting is the greatest remedy". It is called Fasting Therapy
and has been endorsed by Plato, Aristotle, Tertulian, Plutarch et al.

During Therapeutic Fasting, the Ama ( toxins ) are destroyed. Also
undigested particles are digested. After Fasting, metabolic rate in
increased and the digestive fire is enhanced.

The Dhanvantari Mantra calls for the removal of Ama from the system,
