Ponder These Truths PONDER THESE TRUTHS Early Morning Meditation Talks By Sri Swami Chidananda SERVE, LOVE, GIVE, PURIFY, MEDITATE, REALIZE Sri Swami Sivananda So Says Sri Swami Chidananda Founder of Sri Swami Sivananda The Divine Life Society A DIVINE LIFE SOCIETY PUBLICATION First Edition: 1991 (3,000 Copies) World Wide Web (WWW) Edition: 2000 WWW site: http://www.SivanandaDlshq.org/ This WWW reprint is for free distribution © The Divine Life Trust Society ISBN 81-7052-090-4 Published By THE DIVINE LIFE SOCIETY P.O. SHIVANANDANAGAR—249 192 Distt. Tehri-Garhwal, Uttar Pradesh, Himalayas, India. PUBLISHER’S NOTE Early morning group meditation has long been a part of the life at Sivananda Ashram. Usually held in the sacred Samadhi Shrine of His Holiness Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj, the saintly founder of the Divine Life Society, it includes chanting, kirtan, guru stotra, santi path and silent meditation, followed by a message from one of the senior Swamis. For many years these prayer gatherings were a daily occurrence, but by the 1980’s they were being held only on special occasions. One such special occasion was the birthday celebration of Sri Swami Chidanandaji Maharaj on September 24, 1984. During his short talk, Swamiji suddenly said: “What would really be a wonderful birthday gift for me is if you were to hold these group meditations every morning at this time. And if you will, I promise that whenever I am in the Ashram I will come and give the message.” Immediately, one of the senior Swamis offered to lead the prayers, and the very next morning the regular early morning gatherings were resumed. They have continued to this day, and, true to his word, whenever Swamiji is in the Ashram, regardless of the condition of his health or the weather, he has never failed to attend and give a message. Many of the Ashram residents noticed that there was a very special quality about these talks. They felt that the talks were so helpful and valuable that they should be shared with others. So, taping and transcribing began. This volume contains a selection of 75 of the talks recorded from the beginning of August 1987 until the end of December 1990. They are being brought out in 1991, the year that marks Swamiji’s 75th birth anniversary (platinum jubilee). In the editing of these talks, no attempt was made to convert them into essay style. Rather, the intent was to stay as close as possible to the spoken word, so that Swamiji’s messages, frequently spontaneous and highly inspired, would be conveyed as he spoke them. Sanskrit language words have been put in italics with the exception of a few words like Brahman, Atman, Yoga, Vedanta, Guru and Ashram which are commonly found in an English dictionary. Often, while using a Sanskrit word, phrase or verse, Swamiji would give either a translation or a free rendering of it. These have been included in the text. Otherwise, the meaning follows in parentheses or can be found in the glossary. The publishers would like to acknowledge the very valuable and helpful contribution of all those residents of the Ashram who taped, transcribed, edited, checked, and prepared the talks for printing. Many were involved and our grateful thanks to them all. The talks are full of the inspiration and wisdom of a true son of our ancient Indian culture. They have been an inspiration to those who heard them and to those who have prepared them for publication. May they be an equal inspiration, help and solace to you! The Divine Life Society Guru Purnima, 1991 iii PREFACE* Radiant Immortal Atman! Beloved and blessed children of the Divine! Devotees of the Lord, spiritual seekers and aspirants, sadhaks upon the path of sadhana, Yogis engaged in Yoga practice while living your life in different fields of secular activity, either as Ashramites upon the banks of the Ganga in this holy Ashram of Gurudev, or as people in service, people in business, or people engaged in different professional fields! Engaged thus variously, you are nevertheless seeking souls trying to make this life a steady upward movement towards the great Goal which infuses a new meaning into your life, which infuses a certain purposefulness into your life, a Goal which makes life worth living, a Goal which makes life a very clear means to the accomplishment of a sublime end. Thus, in your own personal subjective inwardness, you are engaged in this quest towards spiritual awakening, unfoldment and progress towards ultimate divine perfection by attaining Self-realisation. To you all, a cordial welcome to the spiritual presence of Gurudev in this sacred Samadhi Hall of his holy Ashram on Divine Mother Ganga’s bank. Welcome to Muni-ki-reti which is the entrance way to the Himalayan shrines that make this entire area a divine area. It is an area of penance and prayer, seclusion and silence, deep meditation and struggle for Self-realisation. Welcome to this sanctified area of blessed Mother India! ...Above all, the central purpose of these daily sharings is that you may benefit yourself and that you may enrich your life, strengthen your aspiration and move Godward with greater determination. That and that alone is the object of, the purpose behind these daily sharings; there is nothing else. If you are able to see the path clearly, if you are able to move with determination, if you are able to keep the shining Goal ever before you without forgetting it even for one split second, and if you are able to lead the divine life, then I am richly blessed, I am richly blessed indeed. I seek nothing else. God’s divine grace and Master’s choicest blessings ever shower upon you and make your life a life of glory, moving gradually towards the supreme Goal, the divine goal of your life! This is my prayer at the feet of Gurudev as well as God Who resides within you as your Indwelling Reality, as the Light of lights beyond all darkness, shining in the innermost chambers of your heart. Be aware of that Light within you. Be aware of that supreme Light which is your goal, and live a life illumined and radiant with divinity. God bless you!

  • Conversaciones Con Sri Ramana Maharshi (Tomo I)
    Comparta este documento si lo desea, pero hágalo siempre de forma GRATUITA. CONVERSACIONES CON Sri Ramana Maharshi (Tomo I) Conversaciones con Sri Ramana Maharshi (Tomo I) PREFACIO Estas «Conversaciones», publicadas originalmente en tres tomos, se presentan ahora en uno solo. No hay dudad de que la presente edición será recibida por los aspirantes del mundo entero con la misma veneración y respeto que la anterior. Éste no es un libro para leerlo a la ligera y dejarlo de lado; está destinado a proporcionar una guía infalible al creciente número de peregrinos que marchan hacia la Luz Sempiterna. Nuestra profunda gratitud hacia Sri Munagala S. Venkataramiah (actualmente, Swami Ramanananda Saraswati) por el registro que ha conservado de las «Conversacio- nes» que abarca un periodo de cuatro años, desde 1935 a 1939. Aquellos devotos que tuvieron la buena fortuna de ver a Bhagaván Sri Ramana, al leer estas «Conversacio- nes», las rememorarán naturalmente, y recordarán con deleite sus propios registros mentales de las palabras del Maestro. A pesar del hecho de que el gran Sabio de Aruna- chala enseñaba la mayor parte del tiempo a través del silencio, instruía también a través del habla, y eso igualmente, con lucidez y sin desconcertar ni confundir las mentes de quienes lo escuchaban. Uno hubiera deseado que todas las palabras que pronunció se hubieran conservado para la posteridad. Pero tenemos que estar agradecidos por las conversaciones que se han registrado. Se encontrará que estas «Conversaciones» arrojan luz sobre los «Escritos» del Maestro y, probablemente, lo mejor sea estudiarlas junto con los «Escritos», cuyas traducciones es posible obtener.

  • Implicit Science in Hindu Thought Varadaraja V
    Science, Technology, and Religion V Implicit Science in Hindu Thought Varadaraja V. Raman One can find apologists from all the major religions who aim to bolster the standings of their faith by proclaiming its confluence with science. Some have even gone so far as to argue that their ancient scriptures and doctrines presage specific ideas and findings of modern science. As Imad-ad-Dean Ahmad and Martin J. Verhoeven show elsewhere in this symposium, this is a growing trend among some scholars of Islam and Buddhism. But it is also a perennial presence in the great religious tradi- tions of Judaism, Christianity, and Hinduism. From a scientific point of view these claims are untenable, as the find- ings of modern science spring from observations, insights, instruments, philosophical outlooks, and knowledge that were absent in the ancient world. But the defenders of these claims contend that the philosophers and prophets of distant ages had other means of knowing than logic, differential equations, and the spectrometer — that the scientific insights in scripture are a testament to their divine origin. Though perhaps well-meaning, such claims essentially belong to pseudoscience, not least because they are typically based more on parochialism and questionable hermeneutics than on serious scholarship. But this does not mean that the search for areas of genuine harmony between science and scripture is always misguided. There is no solid evidence that ancient prophets or religious thinkers were privy to any revealed knowledge of scientific findings in advance of their peers. But ancient thinkers did articulate many of the broad possibilities for answers to major questions that have since been, in a sense, adjudicated by science.

  • Perfect Guru
    Perfect Guru By H. H. Krishna Chaitanya Swami 1 Table of contents Introduction Chapter 1 Who can be called a guru? Chapter 2 Qualities and activities of guru. Chapter 3 Indra lost heaven by offending his spiritual master. Dedicated to His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada and Bhakti Svarupa Damodara Swami Srila Sripada Introducion Introduction A guru is one who disseminates transcendental knowledge among his disciples with reference to distinction of matter, spirit and Supreme Spirit, Godhead. Many teachers have tried to be gurus, but not all of them could become a guru for want of necessary qualification. To be a guru, one must be able to protect his disciples from falling down into the repeated cycle of birth, death, old age, and disease by associating the disciple with God in yoga. Guru teaches mainstream yoga practices, given in the scriptures, which unites the disciple with the Supreme Lord. A Guru does not manifest magic, gold, siddhis. He neither watch TV serials nor digital movies, and certainly does none of the prohibited acts viz. eat betel nuts, smoke ganja, and travel for amusement, eat meat, drink alcohol, has close association with females, nor gamble. He cannot be identified from a long beard and curly long hair with golden turban, a clever disguise to attract the followers. The goal of a guru is not to render dry social services in the form of hospitals and schools unless it is strongly connected to the Supreme Lord Krishna. He does not wear gold and diamond ornaments on his body, does not dance with his female disciples.

  • Topic 5. the Nature of Jiva and Isvara. 1. Both Are Reflections. the Reflection of Consciousness in Maya Which Is Indescribable As Real Or Unreal Is Isvara
    Topic 5. The nature of jiva and isvara. 1. Both are reflections. The reflection of consciousness in maya which is indescribable as real or unreal is Isvara. The reflection of consciousness in the infinite number of limited parts of maya, which have avarana and vikshepasakti and which are known as avidya is jiva. The part of maya with both avarana and vikshepa sakti is avidya. This is the view of Prakatarthakara. 2. Mulaprakriti is maya when it is predominantly pure sattva not overcome by rajas and tamas and it is avidya when it is impure sattva subordinated by rajas and tamas. The reflection in maya is Isvara and the reflection in avidya is jiva. This is the view of Swami Vidyaranya in Tattvaviveka, chapter 1 of Panchadasi. 3. Mulaprakriti itself with vikshepasakti being predominant is maya and is the upadhi of Isvara. With avarana sakti being predominent, mulaprakriti is avidya and it is the upadhi of jiva. Because of this, jiva has the experience of being ignorant, but not Isvara. This is the view of some. 4. Samkshepasariraka view—The reflection of consciousness in avidya is Isvara and the reflection in the mind is jiva. In the above views in which Isvara and jiva are reflections, the bimba (prototype) is pure consciousness (Brahman ) which is attained by the liberated. 5. Chitradipa view: Giving up the threefold aspect of Brahman as pure consciousness, Isvara, and jiva, a fourfold aspect is postulated. The reflection in ajnana tinged with the vasanas in the minds of all living beings, which is dependent on Brahman is Isvara.

  • A Catechism on Hinduism
    A CATECHISM ON HINDUISM SWAMI KRISHNANANDA The Divine Life Society Sivananda Ashram, Rishikesh, India Website: www.swami-krishnananda.org (Swami Krishnananda answers questions regarding Hinduism) Q: When was Hinduism founded? A: The word ‘Hinduism’ originated due to historical and linguistic circumstances, and refers to what more properly be designated as Bharatiya-dharma, or Sanatana-dharma. There is no personal founder for Hinduism. People who follow the faith or religion which goes by the name of Hinduism hold that the foundation of this outlook of life, or way of living, is eternal, since the way of life is an expression of the basic law operating in the universe. In fact, what popularly is known as Hinduism is a practical and ethical manifestation in day-to-day living of what should be considered as the inviolable law of existence, both in its immutable form known as Satya and operating form known as Rita. Hence, the name Sanatana (eternal or ever-present) associated with this inclusive ‘attitude to life’. Q: Where was it founded, and who founded it? A: Hinduism is not believed to be founded in any place, since it has no founder. Q: What were the prevailing circumstances when it was founded? A: While Hinduism has no founder, and therefore no circumstances can be cited in that regard, students of Hinduism and scholars who are accustomed to do research in its field have usually traced some sort of a logical background of the general structure of Hinduism in the panoramic vision of the Supreme Being as recorded in the Veda-Samhitas, which are supposed to find their detailed promulgation in the Brahmanas, Aranyakas and Upanishads.

SHIVANANDANAGAR—249 192 Distt. Tehri-Garhwal, Uttar Pradesh, Himalayas, India. Publishers’ Note This book is a compilation from the various published works of the holy Master Sri Swami Sivananda, including some of his earliest works extending as far back as the late thirties. The questions and answers in the pages that follow deal with some of the commonest, but most vital, doubts raised by practising spiritual aspirants. What invests these answers and explanations with great value is the authority, not only of the sage’s intuition, but also of his personal experience. Swami Sivananda was a sage whose first concern, even first love, shall we say, was the spiritual seeker, the Yoga student. Sivananda lived to serve them; and this priceless volume is the outcome of that Seva Bhav of the great Master. We do hope that the aspirant world will benefit considerably from a careful perusal of the pages that follow and derive rare guidance and inspiration in their struggle for spiritual perfection. May the holy Master’s divine blessings be upon all. SHIVANANDANAGAR, JANUARY 1, 1993.

  • What Is Moksha Approved.Cdr
    What is Moksha? by AiR What is Moksha? by AiR PREFACE Moksha is supposed to be the most spiritual word in the Hindu religion. It is said that Moksha is the nal goal of every human being. Everybody speaks of Moksha. It is so common to read about Moksha in every scripture, in every good religious book that we place our hands on. But not many people understand the true meaning of Moksha. What is Moksha all about? Translated, it means Liberation, Enlightenment or Nirvana. But what is Liberation? From what must we be liberated? The common man is so busy in the world today that he does not even realize that this world is bondage. This world is like quick sand in which we are sinking and one ne day when our end arrives, we will sink only to be reborn and go through the cycle of death and rebirth again and again. Very few are fortunate to stop and to realize the truth, to ponder upon the fact that this world is a bondage and that we are actually lost in the delusion of this world, in the pleasure, power and possessions. We are imprisoned! The one who realizes this truth starts his journey towards Moksha, towards Liberation and Enlightenment. It is this Seeker who understands the meaning of Moksha and Liberation, who has the courage to start the journey to be liberated, only such few Divine Souls get the opportunity of understanding of Moksha, achieving and living with it. Rest of humanity lives to die and the cycle continues with Moksha remaining a distant dream.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract The Gandavyuha-sutra: a Study of Wealth, Gender and Power in an Indian Buddhist Narrative In this thesis, I examine the roles of wealth, gender and power in the Mahay ana Buddhist scripture known as the Gandavyuha-sutra, using contemporary textual theory, narratology and worldview analysis. I argue that the wealth, gender and power of the spiritual guides (kalyanamitras , literally ‘good friends’) in this narrative reflect the social and political hierarchies and patterns of Buddhist patronage in ancient Indian during the time of its compilation. In order to do this, I divide the study into three parts. In part I, ‘Text and Context’, I first investigate what is currently known about the origins and development of the Gandavyuha, its extant manuscripts, translations and modern scholarship.
