What is Shruti Jnana
meaning of shruti

Shruti is that only universal medium of communication through which one can communicate with the Almighty God. There is no other method in vogue existing on Mother Earth which enables even the most sincere seeker of spirituality establish a connection with Almighty God. Why?

Let us go back to the times when Lipi (the written form of communication) had not yet evolved on Mother Earth. That is somewhere around 2000 years back. If that were so then how did spirituality travel all the way back from the times of King Rama, Lord Krishna, Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohammed and so on.

Vedas... are the words from god Almighty! At the time of their dictation by Almighty God to the mankind... the written form of communication (Lipi) did not exist. Then how did all these sacred Scriptures travel down the path to the present times!

God Almighty did not personally present himself and dictate the Vedas. These sacred Scriptures (the foremost of all sacred Scriptures existing on Mother Earth) were revealed to the mankind by Almighty God through the power of Shruti (the most powerful means of communication ever evolved).

And summing it all up... Shruti is the direct mode (means) of communication between Almighty God (Parmatman, Brahma, Creator and whatever we may name it) and all Souls Atmans existing on Mother Earth. Vow! God has his own ways of interacting with his children.

We need remember here here that Souls Atmans do not require any education or training to learn this basic and the foremost form of communication.

Ever since all Atmans souls in whole Cosmos separated out from the Almighty God at the time of creation of the cosmos by a Big Bang... this means of communication known as Shruti has always been existent. And it is this soul atman within every Jiva living being residing in the heart of one that made possible invocation of the mighty sacred Scriptures known as the Vedas through Shruti.

It is as if the municipal Corporation has made available all the facilities free of all costs.

To tune in to Almighty God... it requires the patience and practice of the most highly accomplished yogis and the spiritual seekers. And for every enlightened soul... this mode of communication of Shruti becomes a routine affair. This faculty of Shruti becomes available the moment one gains enlightenment.

Invoking the mighty wisdom of the cosmos was possible for Lord Krishna, followed by Man gods like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed. In between many Rishis and yogis gained this power and the outcome was the various Upanishads treatises written by them.

One who can communicate through the power of Shruti need not go through a written document. The moment I realized god... everything available in the Cosmos... the total wisdom of the cosmos was at my tips. For inferring whatever is written in the sacred Bhagavad Gita... I did not study the written document. It is as if I had myself dictated the Bhagavad Gita in one of my earlier manifestations. Everything becomes like ABCD!

For any spiritual seeker... reaching the level of Nirvikalpa Samadhi and then communicating with the Almighty God through the most powerful medium of Shruti is absolute bliss... something that just cannot be defined in words. All is beyond the capture of senses. Shruti operates on a much higher level than even our brain which invokes the power of the mind.

The ultimate goal of any form of meditation is reaching the level of Shruti. It is while traveling on the waves of Shruti that one can go from one part of the cosmos to another. Having realized god in 1993... I was able to perceive how the whole Cosmos originated right from the big bang and until the dissolution of cosmos (Pralaya as we call it in Hinduism).

From the first manifestation as an amoeba to the last manifestation as a Mahavira or a Buddha... the form of Shruti (universal mode of communication) has always remained existent but it is only after the serious seeker of spirituality reaches a particular level in meditation that one can communicate with Almighty God through the power of Shruti.

Our body is only a garment for the soul atman within. It is our soul atman which requires communicating with God Almighty. Our body has got nothing to do with it. Shruti... the universal medium of communication makes it possible for every soul atman to communicate with God Almighty all the time.

The outer covering... the body may not be aware but the communication link between every soul atman and Almighty God always exists and would continue existing till eternity. No soul atman can do without Shruti even for a second. Shruti being the only mode of communication between soul atman and Almighty God... the power of Shruti Jnana becomes a fundamental pursuit of all spiritual seekers.

The journey of the cosmos is a long one. Right from the first manifestation as an amoeba (single cell formation) every atman soul requires about 8.4 million manifestations until it reaches the last leg of its cosmic life... the stage of Moksha Salvation. During the entire journey of 96.4 million earthly years (the total time required to complete the journey of 8.4 million manifestations) the soul atman within every Jiva (living form) is able to communicate with God Almighty through Shruti.

Shruti Jnana: the Universal Medium of Communication that enables one communicate with Almighty God!

Concluding it all... Shruti is the universal mode of communication through which an intelligent human being can invoke wisdom from the mighty reservoir of mind plus. The moment you have the power of Shruti Jnana to back you up... the need to read through the sacred Scriptures is over! Shruti Jnana and wisdom go hand-in-hand for a God realized soul.

Why not all of us try and proceed on the path of Shruti Jnana... the ultimate factor leading to liberation of one!

May God bless us all!
