H.H. SRI SWAMI SIVANANDAJI MAHARAJ 1963


Jagadguru Sri Sankaracharya, who was an Avatara of Lord Siva, delved into the precious wisdom of the Upanishads and brought out the most rare gem in the form of the unparalleled Advaita philosophy or the Monistic idealism which gives you, in a nutshell, the glorious truth that you are in essence Divine beings, ever perfect, free, full and blissful. This idea is contained in his famous memorable Sloka: ‘Slokardhena pravakshyami yaduktam granthakotibhih, Brahma satyam jaganmithya, jivo brahmaiva naparah.’ This gives the very essence of all spiritual wisdom, and it is the last word in the transcendental realisation expressed in the form of this famous Sloka. Bliss is to be found in the spiritual Reality which is within you. Realise this and be free.

“If you say that dream objects lose their existence the moment a person wakes up, Wait, is it not also true that objects corresponding to the waking state vanish in the dream and deep sleep states?”





Adyashanti


When you rest in quietness and your image of yourself fades, and your image of the world fades, and your ideas of others fade, what’s left? A brightness, a radiant emptiness that is simply what you are.

I like to experience the universe as one harmonious whole. Every cell has life. Matter, too, has life; it is energy solidified.





SHRI DATTA SWAMI


The real form of God is unimaginable as said in the Vedas and there is no question of seeing or talking or touching the God. The the Gita also says that nobody can know God (Mam tu the Veda Na kashchana). Such unimaginable God cannot be said to have a form and cannot even be said to be formless. The Creator is beyond the creation, which is a fourdimensional network of space and time made up of with matter and energy.The creation contains both formless items like space, energy and air and also items with form like water, earth etc. If you say that God has form or that He is formless, then God becomes a part of the creation and not beyond the creation. The the Veda says that no item in the creation including the pure awareness or life energy is God (Neti Neti…)




Saint Jnaneshwar ~ Shiva-Shakti

 

It cannot be spoken of or spoken to; by no means may It be comprehended by the intellect. It is that one pure Consciousness who becomes everything, From the gods above to the earth below. Objects may be regarded as high or low, But the ocean of Consciousness, ever-pure, Is all that ever is. Though the shadows on the wall are ever changing, The wall itself remains steady and unmoved. Likewise, the forms of the universe take shape from Consciousness, The eternal, primordial One

May you recognize the presence, the power in your life and light of your soul…May you realize that the shape of your soul is unique-that behind the facade of your life something is happening of beautiful, good,and eternal “

If you want to practice the Dharma in an authentic way, it is most important to cut your ties to unwholesome places, companions, and so forth. So give them up!
