Spiritual
Path If
you truly desire traveling the spiritual path... you need learn the Wisdom contained
in Bhagavad Gita. The knower of Bhagavad Gita becomes the knower of all! Everything
that is required to be known on the spiritual path is contained in Bhagavad Gita.
One single document...
the sacred Bhagavad Gita teaches all right from the first manifestation
as an amoeba to the last... the 8.4 millionth manifestation when
a human being gains enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation
(moksha).
The lowest priced
copy of Bhagavad Gita is available in India at Gita press, Gorakhpur
for a mere Rs. 12/= (25 cents)... yet the humanity is busier gaining
materialistic riches... they shall never truly enjoy or carry to
the next manifestation.
The gist of
Bhagavad Gita is not easily understood. One who establishes a firm
goal in life come whatever may... I need to reach the kingdom of
God (aka Vaikuntha in Hinduism) may possibly reach the end... never
otherwise!
The
doctrine of Bhagavad Gita was given to the mankind by Lord Krishna... an Avatar
of the era (God Almighty himself manifests in human form). It comprises of 700
shlokas (versus) which are to be understood in-depth (not literally as the masses
normally do). The
path to the kingdom of God is clear. If we desire reaching the stage of Mahavira,
Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed we need to do the following:- Follow
the path of absolute truthfulness throughout life. No exceptions are ever permitted!
Being truthful we need to take control of the five senses and the mind. The moment
one controls the senses and the mind... we reach the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi.
One has practically reached the end goal of life. In Nirvikalpa Samadhi one comes
face-to-face with God Almighty every moment of time. Practicing
absolute celibacy for a minimum period of 12 years is the next necessity. Searching
for God following the path of Neti (not this, not this) as preached and advocated
by Maharishi Ramana is a sure shot method for reaching the stage of self realization.
Neti is best practiced in the Shavasana pose of yoga (the death pose). Most
human beings although desire following the spiritual path never fix a goal in
life... can such people ever be trusted to follow spirituality to the core! Apart
from the other factors... learning what Prarabdha karma is all about and ways
to cut across the Prarabdha karma is the most difficult task for any spiritual
seeker. The path
of cutting across the Prarabdha karma is unknown to one and all. A maximum of
two to three persons on Mother Earth amongst 6500 million people would know the
mantra of the Prarabdha karma. This is also an essential ingredient before one
reaches the stage of self realization. Understanding the true purport of karma
is also essential. Following
the teachings of Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana paves way for
gaining self realization in this very life. My two web sites listed below cater
