Something Meaningful....

Just read a post sent by my friend Rishit and decided to start my short, small and meaningful conversations / experiences which I had till now in this journey. I am gonna keep adding the stuff as I come across new meaningful and soulful incidents like these:

1. MEHMAN - NAWAAZI

Was standing in queue with Eshan and waiting to get inside this Ramen noodle restaurant in Kyoto, Japan, where I met this young guy. He offered his help in deciding what options were there for veggies. Point where it struck me was, he paid our dinner bill saying that you are our guest here. Next time I am in states, you pay my bill.

2. INSPIRATION - September 9, 2015, 4:22 PM

Met a uber guy today named Ricardo Foster. What impressed me was that he was a total gentlemen. He told that he lost 130 pounds in almost one and a half years. A true inspiration in the sense for people like me who think that they have lost something and then loose their way ultimately.

3. Kal Kisne Dekha hai - October 1, 2015, 12:12 AM

Had a wonderful discussion with new roomie Sai. I was telling him about my crappy future plans and why I was saving now for a better future. He gave me so good reasons and told that you should live now in present, (Kal kisne dekha hai Sir). We should not think much in life. Now we might save a little but we are wasting our precious life in this THINKING thing. Live good, Smile. Be sorry to people for their mistakes, Forgive people, Love your family, be good to everyone, feel that everyday is a lucky day for you :) so many lessons learned.ahaaaa

4. Make Someone Smile - March 11, 2016, 03:10 PM

Was standing on street after my knee checkup and waiting for uber to pick me up. A black lady stopped and asked me 'Kya aap ko hindi aati hai. Mera naam Adriana hai aur yeh meri choti behen Deena hai. Aapse milke khushi hui. Aapko meri hindi kaisi lagi" I just stood up there and was not able to decide ki hindi me baat karun ya english me. Meri to hindi hi nahi nikal rahi thi uski hindi sunke. Thing which hit me was that she approached a total stranger guy on a lost street in Philadelpia and made that guy smile or gave him a reason to smile or be happy. We should try to incorporate this in our life as well :) :) :) :)

5. I met GOD - May 28, 2016, 11:42 AM

So I was hiking at Ten Thousand Buddha Monastery in Hong Kong and got so dehydrated that once I reached the summit/temple, I saw a shop and asked to purchase a water bottle. Gave shop lady 500 HK dollar bill but as she didn't had change she refused to do that transaction.  A couple was sitting over there and while they ate they watched and listened to my helplessness. They couldn't understand english but figured out what I needed and asked shoplady to give me a water bottle. They even asked me join with them for lunch (and yes it was a total vegetarian restaurant) and with sign language they tried to convey that the food was veggie (all I remember now is EAT..NO MEAT, VEGETABLE). I know that 10HKD was not a big deal but I just felt that GOD himself//herself came to rescue me and the water tasted like AMRIT.

6. A CALL TO REMEMBER - July 26, 2016, 5:00 PM

Last Friday I went to DMV office to get my Driving Licence renewed and they requested a second verification to prove my lawful presence here in states. Today as a follow up I called DMV customer care and to my surprise I talked to a lady who while verifying my date of birth told me she was also born on 9th September and we shared some beautiful facts about this day and a smile came on face when she treated me so well on the call. Her name is Marla Linder and her birth date is 09-09-1963. She told me that she will wish me on my 31st Birthday. So Marla, I will wait for your call anxiously :)

Komorebi - Feelings Beyond The Words

Some feelings which I always felt while at anywhere in the world, any time, any moment, may be while I was day dreamy when something important happened. I made this post to express those feelings and will keep on adding as I find new one. Keep reading and enjoy :-)

1. Moment when you sit in a metro train and you see it taking a curve and how different compartments moves around in a spiral shape

2. Those skies in evening forming some shapes or may be my imagination but I see something in them

3. Watching sunset through a plane window. I can purely see fading it away from horizon saying good bye to me and welcoming evening dark skies with moon light

4. Watching rain puddles through my window. I can't express it but see so many water droplets on ground dancing at same time

5. That rustling sound of insects with a wave of pure fresh air on mountains while hiking and your whole body dipped in sweat

6. Veggie food in a Asian Country when they make that perfect food for you. That bite of noodles (not too hot not too cold) when you can actually savor it while you chew and you know this is going to be a memory

7. That smile on the face when you converse with people in sign language knowing that you both don't understand each other's language but you are successful in making them understand whatever you wanted

8. Moment when you see people coming out of a crowded place (out of a train in a busy station, while crossing traffic lights). They all have something to do, something to achieve. Some ending their day after work and want to go home and relax. With all hustle and bustle, a feeling comes up that life goes on, whether you are there or not.

9. That feeling when you watch everything from that train window. Rain drops falling over glass, old houses, lush green fields, horses, traffic lights. You are sitting there and everything is moving past you. 

PARAM-ANAND - The True Self - The True Bliss - The Difference between Bliss and Happiness

                                 

Anandaddhevya khalvimani bhutani jayante

Anandena jatani jivanti

Anandam prayantyabhisamvishanti

–Taittiriya Upanishad (3.6.1)

Yaani Anand hi brahm hai, Yeh jaano

Is Anand se hi Jeewan ki Rachna hui hai, Is Anand ke Karan sabhi jeetey hain

Sabhi Jeevit isi Anand me sama jaatey hain, aur Anand ke saath ek ho jaatey hain

Is bhaag me mai jo cheezie btaane ja raha hu usse pehle yeh jaan lena awashyak hai ki SUKH kya hai..Khushi aur Anand me kya antar hai..isse pehle hum yeh jaane - ek sawaal -

Kya Shareer ka sukh hi sabse bada sukh hai?

Jo log  shareer ke sukh ya deh ke sukh ko sabse bada sukh samajh baith tey hain, veh asur kehlaate hain

“Asushu indriyeshi Ramanti iti Asuraah”

Jo is deh ko, is sthool shareer ko sukh maan baith te hain, jo Indriyon me raman karte hai, weh Asur hotey hain.

Anaatma ki aur bhaagne wale asur hotey hain, nirdhan hotey hain. Unhe Brahm ka gyaan nahi hota, isliye weh brahman bhi nahi ho sakte

ANAND (BLISS) - Aaatma ki khushi ko hum anand keh sakte hai. Jo kabhi na badle. Jo humesha sthaayi rahe. Wo hi sacha anand hai. Param Anand kisi Vyakti ya Vastu se nahi milta, isliye koi aapse weh cheen bhi nahi sakta

Hum jis anand ke peeche bhaagtey hain weh A-Sthaayi hota hai. Jaisey Shareer ka Anand, Paise ka Anand, Ghumne ka Anand, Kuch paane ka Anand.

Sachche Anand ki prapti ke liye humei wo Vivek jaagrit karna chayiye jo hmaari 6 Indriyo ka ek hissa hai. Weh Vivek jisse hume Aatma aur A-naatma ko alag alag dek sakein. Yeh wahi vivek hai jo is sthool sansaar ka anubhaw kar, aas paas ki ghatnaaon ka anubhaw kar humari karam-indriyon ko karam karne ka nirdesh deta hai. Agar Vivek sacha hai to humare karam bhi achche honge. Agar vivek ab bhi Anaatma ki aur milin hai to humare karam bhi usi prakaar honge. Isliye yeh jaan lena bohat awashyak hai ki Indriyaan kya hai aur is vivek ko kaise jaagrit karna chayiye.
(http://theblogtoremember.blogspot.com/2016/01/indriyon-se-mukti-freedom-from-senses.html)

Vivek jaagrit karna hai to nashwar vastuyon ke saakhsi bano. Satya ko jaano. Wo Satya jo Aprivartaniya hai. Jo kuch na hone ke pehle bhi tha. Jo kuch na hoga uske baad bhi hoga. Yehi Satya hai. Janam se Mrityu tak humaare shareer me aneik badlaaw hotey hain. Vichaar badalte hai, Kaal badalta hai. Parantu kuch aisa bhi hai jo kabhi nahi badalta. Weh hai Satya. Humari prakariti aur humare shareer ki chetna, humare indriyon ki sakriyata, usi ke hone ka pramaan hai. Yaane usi ki ichcha se hum jeetey hai aur marte hain. Usi ki ichcha se nadiyaan behti hain, usi ki ichcha se aag jalti hai aur jalati hai. Isliye us satya ko jaan ne ke liye us chetanya brahm ko anubhaw karna zaruri hai aur jo us brahm ko anubhaw kar pata hai wahi us param-anand ko pa sakta hai.

MORAL - This happiness or bliss is not in words stated above rather it is in your own search. Search for Bliss. If I point my finger toward this post, don't just look at my finger, move forward, apply this to self, then only you will be able to see that BLISS.
(FYI - This applies to me as well :-P )

PARAM-ANAND AATMA ya SACHIDANAND - Woh aatma jo mere bhitar hai, aapke bhitar hai, jiske hone se hum sab saansei le rahe hain. Wahi SACHIDANAND aatma hai. Yehi SATYA hai, kyunki yeh kabhi nahi badalta, yeh CHITT hai. Yehi humari buddhi ko chetna pradan karta hai. AATMA ka janam nahi hota isliye woh ANAADI hai. Is SATYA ka koi ant nahi hai, isliye woh ANANT hai. Yeh aatma PARAM-ANAND swaroop hai. Uska anand NITYA hai, AVINAASHI hai. Jaise kamal ka rang, uska aakaar, uski sugandh, kamal ke gunn hai. Par Satya Chitt Anand aatma ke gunn nahi aatma ke swaroop hai. Yehi anand sansaar ke saare sukhon se shrestha hai. Yeh Shareer, Mann, Buddhi - Inke sukh to kshaneek hai, jo nirantar badalte rehte hain, par SACHID-ANAND ya PARAM-ANAND aparivartaniya hai

Taittiriya Upanishad says: 'Raso vai sah. Rasam hyevayam labdhvanandi bhavati'

 –

'He the Highest Self is Bliss in itself. The individual soul becomes blissful after attaining that Bliss'

Two Realities of Life

There are two realities of life, the outer and the inner. In our day-to-day outer activities the experience of bliss can be hidden, just like the fluid property of water is hidden when it is ice. Our mind and senses are so accustomed to experiencing only outer objects and situations that the inner experience of latent, transcendental bliss is easily missed.

Most people experience happiness as a result of an outside pleasurable situation—the birth of a child, being with friends, walking in nature, enjoying a party, or if you are my brother, having a good game of golf. Actually, according to him golf might fall into thebliss category.

When the mind can begin to experience finer regions of thought through techniques like Transcendental Meditation, and eventually transcends even the finest level of thought, it will experience the state of pure bliss—its own essential nature. Gaining familiarity with our own inner bliss through regular experience of the Self allows us to then recognize the same bliss in our activity and all outer values of life, because the world is as we are. Very naturally and effortlessly we develop a state of Being that does not depend on anything from the outside for joy and at the same time infuses all aspects of our lives with greater happiness and a more profound sense of well-being, ultimately leading to enlightenment.

Why Suffer?

Many people feel suffering is a natural part of life. If you are not anchored to the silent, transcendental of your Being,  you can easily be tossed about by the constant changing circumstances of life. The path of bliss is straight, easy, effortless, and open to everyone because it is the essential nature of everyone. Why suffer or settle for only temporary happiness where we can enjoy our own essential nature—a state of pure bliss?

Indriyon se Mukti (Freedom from the senses)

Indriyon ko samajhne se pehle yeh jaan lena zaruri hai ki yeh aatma kya hai aur a-naatma kya hai.

Shareer, Indriyaan, Praan, Mann aur Ahankaar aadi aur unke sabhi tarah ke parivartan idriya vishya aur unke sab sukh dukh aadi, sab avyakat paryant, us sansaar ko A-NAATMA kehte hain.

Ek sawaal - Kya Indriyon ka sukh hi sabse bada sukh hota hai? Jinhone kabhi sukh ka, anand ka sakshaatkaar nahi kiya hai, weh aisa hi sochte hai

In the Sutta Pitaka, six sensory faculties are referenced in a manner similar to the six sense bases. These faculties consist of the five senses with the addition of "mind" or "thought" (manas).

1. vision (cakkh-indriya)
2. hearing (sot-indriya)
3. smghān-indriya)
4. taste (jivh-ell (indriya)
5. touch (kāy-indriya)
6. thought (man-indriya)

The first five of these faculties are sometimes referenced as the five material faculties (e.g., pañcannaṃ indriyānaṃ avakanti).^[16]

Vivekachudamni 76. The deer, the elephant, the moth, the fish and the honey-bee---these five meet death because of their bondage to one of the five senses. What then is the condition of a person who is attached to all five? 

A deer meets with death when, unmindful of the danger lurking behind, it stands transfixed listening to sweet music. A mighty elephant wandering at will in the forest gets caught when tempted with the touch of a female elephant. A moth is attracted to a bright flame and rushes into it to burn and perish. A fish succumbs to taste by swallowing a piece of flesh used as bait on a hook. Attracted by the fragrance, a bee enters a lotus and gets trapped in it when the flower closes its petals at sunset. How then to describe the plight of man who, enslaved by all the five senses, loses the power to discriminate and is unable to strive for the spiritual goal.

Equally important are the ideas we absorb through the mind. None can carelessly continue to gather mental dirt and yet hope to discipline and focus the mind. “A disciplined mind acts as our friend, and an undisciplined mind acts as our enemy,” teaches the Bhagavad Gita (6.6). But how do we discipline the mind? Filling the mind with noble thoughts and continually dwelling on them disciplines and strengthens the mind. A devotee of God finds that sincere and steadfast repetition of the divine name restrains the mind and the senses without much effort.

Hum sabhi ko ek shareer milta hai jisme paancho indriyaan samaan hoti hai aur jiske dwara hum is sthool sansaar ko anubhaw karte hain. Pashu Pakshiyon ke paas bhi yehi shareer, yehi indriyaan hoti hain, kintu manushya ke paas ek vishesh tarah ka vivek hota hai, jiske dwara weh uchit anuchit satya asatya dharam adharam ka bhed karta hai. Vivek dwara hi manushya apni indriyon ko niyantrit  aniyantrit karta hai, taaki uske uddeshya me koi vyawadhaan utpann na ho aur jo manushya vivekheen aur indriyon ke daas hotey hain, weh pashu pakshiyon ke samaan hotey hain. Weh sansaar ke saath saath apna naash bhi karte hain, weh hi dharam ka naash bhi karte hain

Ek aur sawaal - Hum apni indriyon ke daas ho kaise jaatey hain? Humei yeh bahutik cheejon ki vaasna kaise hone lagti hai? Humein kaun aadesh deta hai ki yeh karo ya woh karo jisse is shareer ya anaatma ko sukh miley
Jawaab - Antah-karan. Yaani Manas, Buddhi, Chitt aur Ahankaar ke samuchit roop ko hi Antah-karan kehte hain. Antah-karan gyanendriyan dwara sansaar ka anubhaw karke karmendriyon ko karm ka nirdesh deta hai. Iska matlab yadi humara Antah-karan shuddh hai to hmaare karam bhi shuddh honge aur ache honge. Yadi humara Antah-karan hi shuddh nahi to humare karam bhi ache nahi.

Vishwam Gurur-Mama (Whole World is my Guru)

                              VISHWAM GURUR-MAMA (Whole world is my Guru)

Sach jaan ne ki abhilaasha rakhne waloon ke liye to poora vishwa hi guru hai!!

Jeewan ki paathshaala me jisse bhi jo seekho wahi tumhara guru hota hai. Jo bhi agyaan ka andhkaar door kar de, weh guru hota hai. Aatm-Gyaan dene wala Sadguru ek hota hai, par guru aneik ho sakte hain. Jaisey avadhoot Datta-treya ke 24 guru. Is shrinkhla mein mai mere un sabhi guru ko warnan karna chaahunga jinse maine mere ab tak ke jeewankaal me kuch bhi seekha aur un guru-on ka jo ki dattatrey ke they-

7. KABOOTAR - Ek baar shikaari ke bichaaye jaal me kabootar ke bachchey fass gaye. Kuch deir baad bhojan ikattha kar ghonsle me lauti unki maa bhi jaal me fass gayi. Un kabootaro se maine jana ki kis prakaar moh ,vinaash ko aamantran deta hai

8. AJGAR - Jis prakaar ajgar apney shikaar ki talaash me yahan wahan nahi bhatakta, waise hi gyaan ki abhilaasha rakhne wale ko sukh ke peeche yaha waha nahi bhatakna chayiye

9. SAMUNDRA - Jis prakaar samundra apni maryada ka ulanghan nahi karta, waise hi buddhimaan ko apni naitik maryada ka ulanghan nahi karna chayiye

10. PATANGA - Murkh wyakti indriyon ke sukhon ki aag ke kood swayam ko bhasm kar deta hai, parantu buddhimaan wyakti gyaan ki agni mein kood apne agyaan ka naash kar seemit se aseemit ho jaatein hain

11. HAATHI - Yaani Gaja. Haathi ke shikaari haathi ko pakadne ke liye nakli hathni bnaate hain ya paaltu hathni ka prayog karte hain taaki vey haathi ko lubha sakein. Sadhak ko kaam ke aaweig se door rehna chayiye, yeh maine haathi se seekha

12. MADHUA - Yaani shehad ikkatha karne wala. Madhumakkhi shehad ikkatha karne me apna samay ganwaati hai aur uska upbhog shehad ikkatha karne wala madhua karta hai. Isliye samay saadhno ko ek-katra karne me nai, swayam ko samajhne me kharch krna chayiye

13. MACHLI - Jis prakaar kaantey me lage padarth ke karan, machli us kaantey me fass jaati hai, waise hi manushya pralobhano ke karan se sankat me padta hai

14. TEER BNAANE WALA - Usse maine jana ki aatma par ekaagrta se hi sansaar ke prapanch ko andekha kiya ja sakta hai

18. MRIG - Yaani Hiran. Usse maine jana ki Indriyon ki kaamna daastaan ka karan hoti hai

19. BAAJ - Jis prakaar maans ke ek tukde ke liye kayi shikaari pakshi ek saath maans par toot padtey hai aur paraspar ladtey hain, theek waise hi bhautik sukhon ki haud sangharsh aamantrit krti hai

Us samay us kanya ke mata pita ghar pe nahi they toh, atithiyon ko aaya dekh us kanya ne bhojan ke liye dhaan kootna shuru kar diya. Ab dhaan koot tey samay, us kanya ke haath me padi chudiya bajne lagi. Choodiyon ke khanakne ki dhwani se atithiyon ko pareshaani na ho, isliye usne dono haatho me ek ek choodi rakh baaki choodiyan utaar di. Is ghatna se maine jana ki doosrey ke hone se swar, shabd khatakne lagtey hain, bajne lagtey hain. Isliye sadhak ko akele rehna chayiye

21. SARP - Sarp ghar nahi banata, waise hi adhyaatam ke pathik ko aniket rehna chayiye

22. MAKDI - Jaise makdi apne jaal ki rachna karti hai, usmey vicharan karti hai aur ant me usey hi nigal leti hai, waise hi aatma apne sansaar ki rachna karta hai, usme vichran karta hai aur ant me yeh sansaar usi me vileen ho jata hai

23. ILLI - Illi lagataar bhramar ki aur dekhti rehti hai. Yeh nirantar bharamar ki taraf dhyaan illi ko bhramar ke parivartit kar deta hai. Guru aur Shishya ki chetna ka yeh sambandh mera 23wa guru hai

24. JAL- Jal sabki pyaas bujhata hai. Manushya, pashu pakshi, peid, paudhey sabhi ko jeewit rakhta hai aur humesha sabse neechli jagah pe rehta hai, waise hi buddhimaan ko bhi humesha sabse naganya sthaan grehan karna chayiye

Episode 25 - Guru - Avadhoot

Shreya aiwam Preya - Jeewan ke do Maarg

Jeevan ke do maarg hai. Shreya aur Preya. 

Aadhyatam se juda maarg Shreya hai aur bhog se juda maarg Preya. Buddhiman shreya ke maarg ko chunta hai. Nirbuddh apne liye preya ka maarg swikaar karta hai. Bhog ka maarg avidya ka, Agyaan ka maarg hai. Preya ka maarg chun ne wala sukh ko hi satya maan baith ta hai. Shreya ke maarg ko chun ne wala aatma ko hi sach maanta hai. Preya ka maarg indriyon ki aur le jata hai. Shreya ka maarg indriyon se pare le jata hai. Aatma ke satya ko tark se nahi jana jata. Shrotriya aur brahmnishth guru dwara diye gaye gyaan se hi aatma ka sach jana ja skta hai.

Is shareer ko tum rath aur is aatma ko tum rathi jaano. Buddhi ko saarthi aur mann ko lagaam jaano. Indriyaa rath ke ghodey hain. Aur vishaya charagaah. Jo chanchal mann ka hai. Jisne mann ki lagaam nahi kheench rakhi. Indriyaa uske vash me nahi rehti. Theek waise hi jaise dusht ghodey saarthi ke. Jo nischal mann ka hai, jisne mann ka lagaam kheench rakhi hai. Indriyaa uske vash me rehti hain. Jaise uttam ghodey saarthi ke. Vivek jiska saarthi hai. Jisne mann roopi lagaam kheench rakhi hai. Wahi manushya apne gantavya tak pahunchta hai.

Indriyo se indriyon ke vishaya shrestha hain. Vishaya se mann. Mann se buddhi aur buddhi se aatma shrestha hai. Jo is aatma ko jaan leta hai. Wah mrityu se pare chala jata hai.

Episode 24 - Adhikari - The Seeker of Knowledge - NachiketaNa Viten Tarpinyo Manushya (Beings will never get satisfied through wealth, it will only through contentment) - Kathopaniśhad, 1.1.27

Karma and Rebirth (Karm aiwam Punar Janam)

Harsh aur Vishaad - Yeh humari buddhi ka feir hai. Mann ko acha laga to harsh, Mann ko bura laga to vishaad, par sach to yeh hai ki hmaare liye koi bhi cheez na harsh ka karan hai aur naa hi vishaad ka.


Kai baar zindagi me hum aise mod par aa jate hai jahan sirf yaadein reh jaati hai. Aise mauke pe sirf udaasinta rehti hai ya vishaad. Kisi ko khone ka vishaad, kuch na kar paane ka vishaad, kisi ke guzar jane ka vishaad, kuch mil na paane ka vishaad. Sach to yeh hai ki naa to kuch hmaare harsh ka karan hai aur naa hi vishaad ka.

Aaakhir kya sambandh hai humara un sab cheejo se jo humei pyaari lagti hai - jaise maa baap, biwi, bhai, bachchey, naukri, aisho aaram. Jisey hum APNA kehte hai, is sansaar me aane se pehle wo humara kya tha, ya humse pehle wo kiska tha. Is sansaar me humara ussey kya sambandh hai aur uske jaane ke baad humara ussey kya sambandh hoga. Jaisey samundra me beh rahe lakdi ke kundey kuch deir ke liye ek dusrey se miltey hain, aur fir alag ho jaatey hain. Theek waise hi saarey rishtey kuch kshann ke hotey hain, isliye kisi ke jaane ka shok mat karo.

kayi cheeizei aisi hoti hai jo humei bohat pyaari hoti hai aur bhagwaan se hum unhe maangtey hai ki hey bhagwan humey naukri de do, us ladki se humari shaadi karwa do, badi gaadi dedo, acha jeewan de do.. wo sab chezei hum maangtey hai aur fir humey swayam anubhaw hota hai ki jisey paaney me humei sukh ka anubhaw ho raha tha, usey khone par humey dukh ka anubhaw hota hai.

Sach toh yeh hai ki Istridharam, Aishwarya, Sampatti, Rajya, Vaibhaw, Prithvi, Saina, Kosh, Sewak, Mantri, Sagey, Sambandhi, Mitra aadi sabhi anitya hai. Ek din sabhi nasht ho jaane wale hain. Jo anitya hai uska shok mat karo kabhi.Isliye vishaad karne ke jagah apne mann ka shaant karo, swasth karo aur isi mann ke dwara apne waastvik swaroop par vichaar karo aur dwetya bhram ko chodkar swayam ko shaanti swaroop param aatma me stith karo

Kisi ke jaane ya kisi ko khone ke baad hum wyarth hi vishaad wyakt karte hai. Shok me wyakul rehte hai us insaan ya us cheez ke liye jo humei chod ke chali gayi. uske fir se wapas laut aane ki kaamna kartey hai.

Raja Chitraketu ke putra ke marr jane ke baad dewarshi narad ne uske mrit putra ki jeev aatma ka aawaahan kiya. Us jeev aatma se jab poocha gya ki tumhare mata pita tumhare chalei jane ke baad vishaad wyakt kar rhe hai, shok me wyakul hai, tab us jeev aatma ne kaha - Dewarshi mai apne karmo ke anusaar kayi janamo se dewata, manushya, pashu pakshi, ped paudho aur na jaaney kitni yonio me bhatak raha hun. Yeh dono kis janam se mere mata pita huye, mujhe pta nahi. Waise mere hazaro mata pita hai, to kewal in dono ko hi mai apne mata pita kaise maan lun aur sachchai yeh hai ki mere koi mata pita nahi. Bhinn Bhinn janamo me sabhi ek dusrey ke rishtey naatey, bhai bandhu, mitra kshatru, udaasin, madyasth aur dweshi hote rehte hain. Sona chaandi aadi, khareedne bechne layak wastuyein bhi ek vyapaari se dusrey vyapaari ke paas aati jaati rehti hain, waise hi jeev bhinn binn yonio mein alag alag shareer badaltey rehta hai. Jeev nitya aur wastaw me ahankaar rahit hai, weh garabh me prawesh kar jab tak jis shareer me rehta hai, tab tak i weh us shareer ko apna samajhta hai. Aur jo jeev nitya awinaashi aur swayam prakaashmaan hai, uske liye janm aur mrityu kuch nahi hota. Iska naa koi priya hai aur naa koi apriya. Naa apna naa praya. Isliye dewarishi mai is shareer me wapas nahi aa sakta. Mujhe ab nayi yoni me janm lekar hi sansaar me aana hoga.

Moral - Wasnaayein hi PunarJanam ka karan hai. Humara prateyak karam aur Ichha, hmaare mann ya buddhi par apne chaap ya sanskaar chod jaatey hain. Mann par padey yeh sanskaar hi wasnaayein kehlaati hain. Wasnaayein hi humare vichaar aur usse utpann humare karmo ka prerak bal hai.Wasnaayein hi punarjanam ka mool hai. Wasnaayein humein Karm karne ke liye prerit krti hai. Aur jab un wasnaayon ka kshann nahi hota, to wo humare karan shareer me avitt roop mein bachi rehti hai, jiske karan ek poora janm smaapt hone ke baad bhi un bachi huyi wasnaayon ke karan jeev ko fir se janm lena padta hai taaki wo apni wasnaayon ko khatam kar sake. YAANI JAB TAK WASNAAYEIN HAIN, TAB TAK JANAM HAI, Is maarg se bachne ka ya rokne ke liye prati shann mann me ho rahi aniyantrit kriyaaon ka niyantran yaani dharm palan aur neeti purn vichaaro ka manan.Pathan pathaan mann buddhi ko shuddh kartey hain. Jab tak wasnaayein hai tab tak ichchayein hain. Jab tak ichchayein hain, tab tak punar janam hai. Karm ke is siddhant ko samajh jo kriya aur pritikriya ke pare chala jata hai, weh janm aur maran ke bandhan se mukt ho jata hai. Humare bhootkaal ke karm hi hmaare aaj ki rachna krtey hain aur hmaare aaj ke karam hmaare aaney waale kal ka bhawishya bnaate hain. HUMARA AAJ HUMARE KAL KE BEETEY HUYE KAL KA PARINAAM HAI. Aur hmaara aane wala kal humare aaj ka.Isi ko karam siddant kehte hai. Isliye hmaara bhagya hmaare hi haathon me hai. Jeewan me jo uncha neecha hum dekhte hai wahi bhagya ya prarabdh hai. Hum us prarbdh ka kis tariqey se saamna kartey hai wo hai humara purushaarth, so prayatan hi purushaarth hai.

"As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones."

Previously I wanted to conquer the world, Now I want to conquer myself

Us shareer ka ek vishaal bhawan tha, is shareer ka sara sansaar hai

Pehle wo shareer sabko alag alag dekhta tha, ab yeh shareer swayam ko sab me dekhta hai

WO DUNIYA JEETNA CHAHTA THA, AB MAI KHUD KO JEETNA CHAHTA HUN

muktir hitvānyathā rūpaṁ

sva-rūpeṇa vyavasthitiḥ

Moksha param purushaarth hai, wo tumhara adhikaar hai

Dukho se mukti tumhara adhikaar hai, 

Bandhano se mukti tumhara adhikaar hai

Moh se mukti tumhara adhikaar hai

Dharam, Arth aur Kaam ke baad Moksha tumhara Adhikaar hai. Isi jeewan ka param purushaarth Moksha hai. Isliye jo hum dikhiye padte hai wo hum hai nahi. Apne asli Swaroop ko pehchaan na hi Moksha hai. Toh hum kya hai fir? Hum Amrit hai..jo jaan leta hai ki woh yeh shareer nahi hai. wo janam aur maran ke bandhan se mukt ho jata hai

Tum anaadi ho, avinaashi ho, isliye tum aisi rachna karna chahte ho, jo kabhi nasht na ho

Tum aseemit ho, anant ho, isliye tum aakash ko choona chahte ho, parvaton ko laanghna chahte ho

Tum dosh rahit rachna karna chahte ho kyunki tum nirdosh ho

Jab tak tum yeh shareer ho, seemit ho

Jaise hi tum apne waastvik swarop ko jaan ne lagte ho, tum nirakar, nirvikaar, anaadi, anant aur amrit jo jate ho, isliye apne chitt aur indriyon ke swaami bano, unke gulaam nahi

Indriyon ki gulaami se mukti - Yehi Moksha hai

Sukh mat maango - Sukh ke swaami bano - Yehi Moksha hai

Jo swayam satya chitt anand hai, wo bahar sukh dhund rha hai

Moral - We should release ourselves from our fears, ego, our desires, mind senses which wants us to something wrong, release ourselves from desiring comfort, blindness. But is this MOKSHA?

ज़िन्दगी

जो चाहा कभी पाया नहीं,
जो पाया कभी सोचा नहीं,
जो सोचा कभी मिला नहीं,
जो मिला रास आया नहीं,
जो खोया वो याद आता है
पर
जो पाया संभाला जाता नहीं ,
क्यों
अजीब सी पहेली है ज़िन्दगी
जिसको कोई सुलझा पाता नहीं...

जीवन में कभी समझौता करना पड़े तो कोई बड़ी बात
नहीं है,
क्योंकि,
झुकता वही है जिसमें जान होती है,
अकड़ तो मुरदे की पहचान होती है।

ज़िन्दगी जीने के दो तरीके होते है!
पहला: जो पसंद है उसे हासिल करना सीख लो.!
दूसरा: जो हासिल है उसे पसंद करना सीख लो.!

जिंदगी जीना आसान नहीं होता; बिना संघर्ष कोई
महान नहीं होता.!

जिंदगी बहुत कुछ सिखाती है;
कभी हंसती है तो कभी रुलाती है; पर जो हर हाल में
खुश रहते हैं; जिंदगी उनके आगे सर झुकाती है।

चेहरे की हंसी से हर गम चुराओ; बहुत कुछ बोलो पर
कुछ ना छुपाओ;

खुद ना रूठो कभी पर सबको मनाओ;

राज़ है ये जिंदगी का बस जीते चले जाओ।

"गुजरी हुई जिंदगी को
कभी याद न कर,

तकदीर मे जो लिखा है
उसकी फर्याद न कर...

जो होगा वो होकर रहेगा,

तु कल की फिकर मे
अपनी आज की हसी बर्बाद न कर...

हंस मरते हुये भी गाता है
और
मोर नाचते हुये भी रोता है....

ये जिंदगी का फंडा है बॉस

दुखो वाली रात
निंद नही आती
और
खुशी वाली रात
.कौन सोता है...

It's all about YOU..

The emptiness I had in me for so long 
You filled it with sunshine n made it a song 
In this life you are my dream come true 
My soul is yours and heart beats 4 you 

I am lost and can’t be found 
You are everywhere, I see u in ur sound 
No I don’t think dimples are cute, they may add to smile 
My charm is YOU, they’re just bit for a while 

U are my stars in the sky, leaf of autumn in July 
U are my stop and my start, all of prayers in my heart 
U are my joy n my sorrow, my present n my tomorrow 
U are my life n my best friend, a dream till my end 

Let me take a vow, to no one but you 
I’ll love you forever, and always be true 
I’ll take care of you and always keep you near 
Close to my heart, each day and every year 
I’ll lay beside you through all day and night 
Listening you n just you and treat you right 

I’ll be your side no matter if you are wrong 
I’ll fight for you to prove that our love is strong 
We may be separated by miles n so apart 
You keep me going and we are one in our heart
