Various causative factors which are mentioned by ancient. Lifestyle diseases characterize those diseases whose occurrence is primarily based on the daily habits of people and are a result of an inappropriate relationship of people with their environment.

It is not the cheap and superficial devotion of materialistic simpletons, but the pure love of those selfless souls who have come to this level through the path already traced by Krishna in the previous chapters. Such path is so sublime, simple and clear that it can be followed successfully by everyone, including those who are less qualified materially in terms of erudition, austerity, ritual purity and so on. In chapter 1, Krishna utilized the disillusionment expressed by Arjuna to move our attention from the ordinary material concerns to the pursuit of spiritual knowledge and realization. In chapter 2, Krishna clearly explained what is the difference between the temporary material body and the eternal transcendental spirit soul, called atman. In chapter 3, the yoga of action is explained, by which we can work on the spiritual level while still living in the material body and world - performing our duties selflessly, as an act of worship to the Supreme, or yajna (sacred action). This could be called the ABC of Self realization.

  • Bhagavad Gita
    BHAGAVAD GITA The Global Dharma for the Third Millennium Chapter Eight Translations and commentaries compiled by Parama Karuna Devi Copyright © 2012 Parama Karuna Devi All rights reserved. Title ID:4173071 ISBN-13: 978-1482548471 ISBN-10: 148254847X published by Jagannatha Vallabha Vedic Research Center phone: +91 94373 00906 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.jagannathavallabha.com © 2011 PAVAN Chapter 8: Taraka brahma yoga The Yoga of transcendental liberation The 8th chapter of Bhagavad gita, entitled "The Yoga of liberating spiritual consciousness" takes us further into the central part of the discussion, focused on the development of bhakti - love and devotion for God. The topic of devotion is difficult to analyze because it deals with emotions rather than intellect and logic. However, devotion is particularly popular and powerful in changing people's lives, specifically because it works on people's feelings. Feelings and emotions fill up the life of a living being even on the material level and constitute the greatest source of joy and sorrow. All the forms of physical joys and sufferings depend on emotional joy and suffering: a different emotion in the awareness transforms hell into heaven, and heaven into hell. Attraction and attachment (raga) as well as repulsion and aversion (dvesa) are created by emotions, and these two polarities constitute the entire universe of material action and identification. It is impossible for a conditioned soul to ignore feelings or emotions, or to get rid of them. Usually, those who try to deny sentiments and emotions simply repress them, and we know that repressed sentiments and emotions become stronger and take deeper roots, consciously or unconsciously branching into a number of obsessive behaviors causing immense sufferings to the individual and to the people around him/her.

  • Arthur Avalon Kularnava Tantra
    Of related interest: Pancaratra Text Sanjukta Gupta Otto Schrader inl916 recommended the Laksmi Tantra for the study of Pancaratra philosophy. Among the vast number of Pancaratra Agamic texts the Laksmi Tantra stands out because it deals almost exclusively with Laksmi, the divine creative impulse, intelligence, potency, potentiality, power, majesty and speech. The focus of the text is on Pancaratra philosophy (including cosmogony) and the practice of yoga based on it, with its attendant Mantra Sastra. It records the earliest Vaisnava speculation on the paradox of a Supreme God who is totally identified with Brahman, the unique and transcendent Conscious Reality, and is at the same time the creator of a dualistic universe which cannot be related to Him. ArthurAvalon This work teaches the tantric rituals in great details and propounds the basic philosophy of Tantrism, revealing the best aspects of Saktism. The tantra also teaches the doctrine of duties, incorporating the laws of Manu, the Bhagavadgita, and sermons of the Buddha. Arthur Avalon Divided into 36 Patalas, the book deals with the worship of Devatas in the tantric way. As a special study, the reader is referred to the Patalas on the tantric Bhutasuddhi, the worship of Tripura Vidya, Japa, Bija, Yantra, Mudra, and so forth which are the distinguishing marks of tantric ritual. Delhi (INDIA) E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.mlbd.com ISBN: 81-208-0972-6 Rs.495(Cloth) The Kularnava is perhaps the foremost Tantra of the kaula School and is constantly cited as an authority in Tantric literature. It is worthy of close study by those who would understand the tenets and practice of the tradition of which it is a Sastra.
