The Supreme Absolute Truth - Part 1 The Supreme Absolute Truth - Part 1 Date: 2017-10-14 Author: Narahari Krishna das Hare Krishna Prabhujis/Mathajis, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Gurudeva. The Vedic literature points out that the ultimate aim of human life is to inquire into the Supreme Absolute Truth. And one of the important terms used in the Vedic literature to denote the Supreme Absolute Truth is ‘Brahman’. The scriptures like Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita are called brahma vidya. Any person who is engaged in the pursuit of Absolute Truth is called Brahmavadi (a transcendentalist). The word brahmachari refers to a person who is engaged in realizing Brahman, Absolute truth (yat ācarati brahma tat brahmacār). And one who has realized Brahman (Absolute Truth) is called Brahmana (brahma jānātīti brāhmaṇaḥ). And a rishi who has realized Absolute Truth is called brahma rishi. Srimad Bhagavatam calls realization of Absolute truth as brahma darshanam. The Vedanta sutra written by Vyasadeva is called Brahma sutra because it talks about Brahman, the Absolute Truth. The first sutra of brahma sutras is athāto brahma jijñāsā - "Now therefore inquire into Brahman (The Absolute truth)". Apart from the Supreme Absolute Truth, the word Brahman can also denote the living entity (jivatma) and the material nature. Additionally, the word Brahman also denotes the brahmajyoti (effulgence emanating from the Lord’s transcendental form). The Lord Himself says in Bhagavad Gita 14.27 brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham- I am the basis of the impersonal brahmajyoti. Also the term ‘Brahman’ denotes Vedas which expound the Absolute Truth. Based on the context in which this word occurs, Brahman will denote any of the above. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu explained the term Brahman in clear terms in his conversations with great scholars in varanasi like Prakashananda Saraswati as follows. ‘brahma’-śabde mukhya arthe kahe — ‘bhagavān’ cid-aiśvarya-paripūrṇa, anūrdhva-samāna According to direct understanding, the Absolute Truth is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who has all spiritual opulences. No one can be equal to or greater than Him." - (CC Adi 7.111) Srila Prabhupada explains this in the purport to Caitanya caritamrita “Although the living entities or material nature are sometimes described as Brahman, Parabrahman - the Supreme, the greatest of all Brahmans - is still Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He is full with all opulence, and as such He possesses all riches, all strength, all reputation, all knowledge, all beauty and all renunciation. He is eternally a person and eternally supreme.” Lord Caitanya explained that Brahman,the Supreme Personality of Godhead is Lord Krishna as follows. brahma-śabde kahe pūrṇa svayaṁ bhagavān svayaṁ bhagavān kṛṣṇa, — śāstrera pramāṇa The word 'Brahman' indicates the complete Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is Shri Krishna. That is the verdict of all Vedic literature. - (CC. Madhya Lila. 6.147) There is an interesting incident in the life of Srila Prabhupada in this regard. Once a person from brahma samaj approached Srila Prabhupada and asked a few questions. (Brahma samaj is an organization which accepts Absolute Truth is Brahman. But for them Brahman is formless and nameless). The person told Srila Prabhupada, “Swamiji, why you’re not accepting/worshipping brahman in your society? You're worshiping Sita Rama and Radha Krishna. But our Brahma samaj is the correct path since we accept and worship Brahman." To him Prabhupada replied, "See, our Krishna consciousness society is the true Brahma samaj. Because Brahman means the Supreme Personality of Godhead who is the greatest and who is full of all opulences . And Lord Krishna is that Supreme Brahman (param brahma). So we are accepting, worshiping and preaching about Krishna who is param brahma. So you should join our society if you really want to worship Brahman". The above statements of Srila Prabhupada are really profound and it is the essence of teachings of all acharyas who expounded the Absolute Truth. Let us meditate on the meaning of word Brahman/Parabrahman and how it denotes the Supreme Lord, in detail in the following offerings. Yours in the service of Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudeva, Narahari Krishna das Chennai..

It is proceeded by an enunciation of another process of meditation known as the Panchagni Vidya. Though the two sections form independent themes and one can be studied and practised without reference to the other, it is in fact held by exponents of the Upanishads that the Vaishvanara Vidya is the panacea prescribed for the ills of life consequent upon the transmigratory process to which individuals are subject, a theme which is the central point that issues from a consideration of the Panchagni Vidya. This work consists of the lectures delivered by the author on this subject, and herein are reproduced these expositions dilating upon the two doctrines mentioned.

  • Mandukya Upanishad Class 75
    Mandukya Upanishad Class 75 Gowdapadha first established the glory of Brahma vidya by refuting sankya, naiyayika, bowdha philosophers. Thereafter he presented the example of fire brand, establishing brahma sathyam jagat mithya; adwaidam sathyam dvaidam mithaym. Then he presented, in 75th to 82nd verses vedanta sara; now he is entering into the cause of samsara and its remedy. Our fundamental problem is ignorance of advaidam or thuirya agyanam. Thuriya atma is the highest reality or paramarthika sathyam and it is the ignorance of this advaidam is the cause of problem. Ignorance by itself does not cause any problem; it is bliss; in deep sleep when we are totally ignorant, we don’t feel any problem. Ignorance is a problem when it is associated with its product. Product of ignorance is erroneous or false perception. When advaidam is not known, advaida agyanam is there and then followed by mithya dwaida prabanja error. This is aboodha abineshaha. False duality is adboodham because it is really nonexistent. This really nonexistent dwaidam is aboodham. Because of agyanam there is mithya dwaidam which is not that much of a problem; but strong attachment to mithya dwaidam in the form of raga or dwesha it becomes the cause of the problem. There are so many dwaida padhartha in the world who are regularly dying. This intense attachment is called abinisheha; this attachment is not towards thuriyum but towards mithya dwaidam. Attachment towards a situation or object or person causes samsara. If this is samsara karanam; gyanam must come. through the gyanam agyanam must go. Once agyanam goes away, mithya dwaidam will be understood as mithya.

A mentally healthy person when threatened with conflicts and frustrations maintains the balance by working against stress. Mental health is the ability to adjust satisfactorily in social and emotional challenging situations. Mental hygiene is the means to sustain and develop mental health. Mental health has got several dimensions. These are preservation, prevention, remedy and of course developmental dimension. Individual needs to maintain emotional control and manage stress to face the challenges of life. Here comes preservation of mental health.

The remedial measures are taken when the problem already exists. The developmental dimensions aim at increasing intentional functioning of the mental mechanisms. This includes techniques of coping with mental health crisis in life before they arise. The mental hygiene movement started as long as 1908, when Clifford Beers published the book “A mind that found itself”. Through the work of Beers (1908) and others, initiatives were undertaken to educate the people on the importance of building mental health from early childhood. Different agencies like school, colleges, homes, religious institutions found to be nodal agencies to build up mental health for their target groups. Creating awareness on mental health problems and sustained efforts to promote and improve mental health considered to be the part of the education and socialisation process.

  • Chapter 10, Verses 30 to 33,Baghawat Geeta, Class
    Mandukya Upanishad, Class 16 Mantra # 11: सुषुप्तस्थानः प्राज्ञो मकारस्तृतीया मात्रा िमतेरपीतेर्वा िमनोित ह वा इदं सर्वमपीितश्च भवित य एवं वेद ॥ ११ ॥ Pragya, whose sphere of activity is deep sleep, is M the third letter of AUM, because it is both the “measure” and also “ that wherein all become one”. One who knows this identity of Pragya and M is able to know the real nature of things and beings, and also come to realize as being the Self of all. Swamiji said the Upanishad is in Omkara Vichara from mantra # 8 onwards. In Mantra # 8 it pointed out that the four padas of Atma could be equated to four matras of Omkara; that is A U M and the silence following M is known as Amatra. From mantra # 9 onwards, each matra was equated to each pada in progressive order. Thus Aa was equated to Vishwa or Virat. In Mantra # 10 the second pada Taijasa or Hiranyagarbha was equated to matra U. In mantra # 11 the third pada of Pragya and Ishwara was equated to M kara. Incidentally, after equating, the Upanishad prescribed three upasanas. Aim of Upanishad is not upasana but Vichara. Assuming some students may not be ready for Vichara the Upanishad prescribes the three upasanas. Shankaracharya says upasana is not main topic of the mantras. The main two features of each of the three upasanas were then pointed out as: Upasana # 1: it is Aptehe and adimatva. Upasana # 2: Utakarsha and Ubhayatvat Upasana # 3: Mithi and Apithi . Once a nishkama upsana is performed by a manda bhakta his mind will be prepared.

    1 UNIT 1 ADVAITA VEDANTA Contents 1.0. Objectives 1.1. Introduction 1.2. Brahman and Atman 1.3. Avidya and Maya 1.4. Karya and Karana (effect and cause) 1.5. Knowledge 1.6. Attaining Liberation through Knowledge 1.7. Let us sum up 1.8. Key words and sentences 1.9. Further Reading & References 1.0. OBJECTIVES This unit is about Advaita Vedanta, its meaning and significance in Indian Philosophy. The word Advaita according to the dictionary is non-dualism, especially in relation to identifying Brahman with the Universal, or with Soul or the sprit and matter. It also means peerless and unique. Literal meaning of Vedanta is the end of Veda. Upanishads came at the end of Veda, they are the Jnana Kandas. They teach knowledge of Brahman or the universal Spirit, who is described as both - Creator and Creation, Actor and Act, Existence, Knowledge, and Joy. Upanishad’s Major Teachings are – the Self exists, it is immortal without a beginning or an end, essentially non – material, and the self is identical with Brahman, the highest Reality, and the Absolute. The main feature of Advaita Vedanta is to understand Brahman, the Supreme Soul. To understand Brahman one has to attain knowledge, overcome ignorance, and be liberated and be in vigilant state at the conscious level. Advaita Vedanta teaches three stages of truth. The first stage is the transcendental or Paramarthika in which Brahman is the only reality and nothing else. The second stage is the pragmatic or Vyavaharika in which both Jiva (living creatures and individual souls) and God are true, and the material world is also true.
