This phenomenon applies to both mental and supra-mental world.It is not that every spiritual aspect and act is totally beyond common men’s reach. In this background Shastrashravana under a well-versed preceptor plays very vital role. Badarayana Vyasathe last Rishi of Vyasaparampara gives us various types of parameters with which we can unlock the subtlety of Upanishadic statement. In Sanskrit literature, various types Nyayasare appliedfor understanding of the Vedic statements. In the first chapter of Brahmasutra, Sutrakarauses many Nyayasin order to get SAMANVAYA (intentional harmony). ShastraDrishti is one of such parameter, which takes us to the real understanding of many Mahavaakyas and the salient statements like sTy< }anmnNt< äü, äüEv sn! äüaPyeit. In this context Shastram is Veda only. Dividing the Vedas into many artificial divisions like Mantra, Brahmana looks to be very much lopsided. Undoubtedly the Upanishads are the cream and core parts of the Vedas. Scholars with Upanishadic insight are the real zaô}. The great sages like Vamadeva are the real knower’s of the shastras. The great sage Vamadeva unfolds the mystery of Brahmavada declaring Ah< mnurÉv< sUyRí“ I am everything, everything is in me”. This particular insight is the real theory of everything. This realization facilitates a smooth passage for spiritual Sadhana. In the second Pada BadarayanaTakes many more statements which have very apparent validation ASpòäüil¼ain rd in the Upanishad. For example in the 3 chapter in Chandogya the statement goes like sv¡ oiLvd< äüt¾lainit zaNt %pasIt this statement further takes us to mnaemy> àa[zrIr> Éaêp> it means that everything is Brahman because everything emerges Brahman. That Brahman is not only universe in nature but also dwells and pervades inside the body activating the vital force, the mental force and makes the whole body spiritualized.

  • Mantrapushpam
    मपपमु ् MANTRAPUSHPAM Translation and Explanation by Narayanalakshmi 1 मपपमु ् INTRODUCTION VEDA: What is the essence of the world we perceive which includes our own individual bodies as parts of it? The essence of all that exists is ‘Vid’ ( व /to know ), the Knowledge. Knowledge means what we understand as something. This understanding nature lies as the essence of all the perceiving entities and objects exist as understood by them. Knowledge alone is the essence of the world that is perceived and also the individual who perceives. ‘Vedas’ are the essence of all knowledge. Vedas are not books written in refined Sanskrit that can be translated like a Ramayana or Mahabharata. Vedas can only be recited; or listened to. They are sounds that contain the supreme knowledge of the meaning of existence. These sounds (as recitals) are not ‘understood’ with the help of the intellect; but if recited in the correct way, lead you to the state of the Creator Brahmaa who is established in the Supreme state of Brahman. Creator (Brahmaa) is but the total essence of all that exists as this world, conscious and inert alike. We, the points of consciousness in his mind-structure will melt in the source through the recital or hearing of Vedas and remain as the quiescent state of the Self. MANTRA: Vedas are Mantras; sound modifications which affect the mind of the person and raise him to the level of Brahman-state. Mantras are particular sound-patterns hidden in some formation of letters with or without meanings. These sound-structures are very powerful; and when recited or listened to, directly take a person to the highest level of human existence ever possible.
