CODE OF SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE

 He who has realized that the human life and this world are transitory, for him is ordained the path of knowledge but to him who considers the world as the reality for him is ordained the code of Spiritual path and the path of devotion.

 To him who sis crushed between the duals of love and hate, although he can differentiate between the self and the non-self, although his conscious is repressive, he cannot attain belief in knowledge.

 By remaining in solitude, desires of the concrete body are destroyed. The abstract desires you see in the dreams are destroyed by meditation on God and by cultivating good feelings and thoughts.

 Renouncing all actions that lead you to confusion is called Sanyas. By wearing Saffron clothes alone no one becomes a hermit. Gargi, Vyas, Vashisht and other Sages never took to ochre colored robes but theses are Sages who acquired total knowledge.

 He who has steeped himself in the bliss & godliness even in his disarrayed conditions does not feel the agonies of duality.

The steadiness, which brings repressiveness to the consciousness and brings the concentration to the mind is called virtuous steadiness.

 Sincere renunciation comes through total asceticism, the royal renunciation through fear and tragedy to the body and base renunciation through total ignorance.

 A philosopher does not sorrow if he loses sight of a mirage of happiness. No feelings of the world leave any impressions on the mind of a philosopher.

 When the curtain of ignorance is removed, the self is attained. Knowledge shows that it was ever present.

 The State of ignorance creates status consciousness, where as the State of Knowledge removes away all status.

 A defective attribute of the body causes no defect in the soul, just as a mirage cannot wet the desert.

 The happiness of the soul is attained through the grace of the intellect, by the intellect being thoroughly cleansed, by removing the filthy thoughts of the baser qualities.

The mind that is equal under all conditions, is steady in its essence of the Brahma and is unshakable has conquered the life.

 Meditation should be out of full feelings.

 Keep the collorium stick of Guru Mantra so that you can drive away the worldly anger & passions.

 If sins have been accumulated to mountains heights, by doing Dhyan Yoga all these sins can be pierced through. No other force has this capacity.

ANSWERS BY PUJYA BAPUJI

What is real Purushartha?

Pujya Bapuji says: Efforts directed to realize the Param Purusha, the Supreme Self, is the only real purushartha. Purushartha, as such, is not limited to having children, raising them and making them self-reliant. Even the petty creatures like the mouse, cat, etc. are doing the same thing. In fact, to lead one’s children on the path of Self-realization by imbuing them with the noble traits of self-restraint, equanimity, magnanimity, cheerfulness and the divine ideals that would bestow on them spiritual bliss, is the real Purushartha (Purusha = Supreme Being; artha = towards); that is, to bring true fulfillment in our individual life as well as in that of our entire family by making determined efforts towards realizing the Supreme Being. Once one accomplishes this Purushartha, nothing else remains to be accomplished, because real Purushartha takes one to that Supreme state of Being, from where all worldly designations look trivial and insignificant.

What is the distinguishing mark of a true Saint?

Pujya Bapuji says: What is the distinguishing mark of a true alcoholic, drug-addict or a gambler? The company of a true alcoholic turns another person into an alcoholic. A drug-addict or alcoholic will make another person addicted to drugs and alcohol respectively. Likewise, in the company of Saints, who are veritable oceans of real bliss, people get their doubts and misgivings dispelled; their restless mind becomes calmer and they begin to repose in the Supreme Self.

HOW TO BE FREE OF ADDICTIONS OF ALCOHOL, AND SMOKING

Alcohol
 Look into your hands every morning & say five times to yourself:” I will not put poison in my mouth today. I will not take alcohol… definitely not.” After taking bath in the morning, take a small cup of water. Put ‘tilak’ on your forehead with water & make a pledge that you shall change your future. While looking into the water repeat 125 times this mantra: ‘Hari Om… Hari Om… Om…’ Then drink three sips of water from the cup. Repeat the whole process again at night. You’ll definitely get miraculous help from God.

Smoking
 Make a mixture of 100g Saunf (Fennel seeds), 100g Ajwain (Ajma), 30g Saindhav Salt & juice of two large sized lemons. Roast this mixture on a flat pan. Whenever there is an urge to smoke, take this mixture. This will improve the quality of blood & you will be saved from this addiction.

GEMS FROM GURU BHAKTI

 A person thinks that he has eyes; but, in reality, are those eyes at all? The visible eye is a physical eye, the eye of the body but not of the soul. Once you acquire the divine eye then all celestial pleasures experienced by Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh will be yours too! Awake! Arise before the sun sets on your horizon. Feel the presence of God within, through devotion & self-knowledge. Beware… Time is drifting away. Look within. Don’t delay!!!!!!

ATMA YOGA

 You are troubled and surrounded by problems because you consider yourself to be just a mere mortal body and not a part of Consciousness. This duality is the root cause of all the problems in the life. Surrender this duality, this ego to all pervasive, blissful and perfect Almighty, and rise above the qualities of nature (Sattva, Rajas and Tamas). Surrendering to God does not mean bowing to the idol; but to acquire true knowledge from a self-realized Guru.
