"मानव शरीर का महत्व "

"मानव शरीर का महत्व "
इस मानव देह में आत्मा के पांच आवरण हैं ,वे ही कोष कहलाते हैं | इन्हीं कोशों में अनंत शक्तियां [ रिधि ,सिद्धि आदि ] छिपी हुई है , जिन्हें पाकर जीव धन्य हो जाता है | जो इनके र हस्य को जानता है ,वह निश्चय ही परम गति को प्राप्त करता है | वे निम्न हैं:-
[१ ] अन्नमय कोष:- मानव शरीर अन्न से बनता है अत: स्थूल शरीर को अन्नमय कोष कहा गया है | आसन ,उपवास ,तत्व -शुद्धि ,और तपश्या से इसकी शुद्धि होती है |
[२] प्राण -मय कोष:- अनमय कोष के भीतर प्रान-मय कोष है | पांच महाप्राण तथा पांच लघु प्राण से यह बना है | बांध, मुद्रा ,और प्राणायाम द्वारा यह कोष सिद्ध होता है |
[३] मनोमय - कोष:- चेतना का केन्द्र मन माना जाता है | इसके वश में होते ही महान अंत: शक्ति पैदा होती है | ध्यान ,त्राटक ,जप की साधना करने से मनोमय कोष अत्यंत उज्जवल
हो जाता है
[४] विज्ञान -मय कोष:- शरीर व् संसार का ठीक -ठीक ,पूरा -पूरा ज्ञान होने को ही विज्ञान कहा है | सो-अहम की साधना ,आत्म -अनुभूति और ग्रंथि -भेद की सिद्धि से विज्ञान -मय कोष प्रबुद्ध होता है |
[५] आनंद -मय कोष:- आनंद आवरण की उन्नति से अत्यंत शान्ति को देने वाली तुरिया -अवस्था साधक को प्राप्त होती है | नाद ,बिंदु ,और कला की पूर्ण साधना से साधक में
आनंद -मय कोष जागृत होता है |
विज्ञान -मय कोष आत्मा की निकटता के कारण अत्यंत प्रकाश -मय है | इसी में अहंता ,ममता ,कर्मफल ,करता -भोक्ता ,जाग्रत ,स्वप्न ,आदि अव्स्थायं ,सुख ,दू:ख ,रहते हैं |
भगवान की अनन्य -भक्ति से संसार से विरक्ती [ श्लोक १३ /१० ] का भाव हो जाता है एवं तत्व -ज्ञान की प्राप्ति हो जाती है | भक्त कभी भी अज्ञानी नहीं रहता ,उसे तो सब कुछ
भगवान की कृपा से मिल जाता है |
इस संसार में केवल मनुष्य -योनी ही कर्म -योनी होती है ,शेष सभी योनियाँ भोग -योनियाँ कहलाती हैं | मनुष्य शरीर मिलना अत्यंत सौभग्य की बात है | इससे बड़ा सौभाग्य किसी
सद गुरु का मिलना है | इससे भी बड़ा सौभाग्य तब है ,जब सत्गुरु आपको अपना लेता है | क्योंकि तब भगवत -प्राप्ति सुनिश्चित हो जाती है |
" इत्ती "

भगवान ने मनुष्य को ,सब समय में ,करने की दो आज्ञाएं दी हैं

योग से सिद्धि ||
भगवान ने मनुष्य को ,सब समय में ,करने की दो आज्ञाएं दी हैं | प्रथम , मेरा स्मरण [ गीता श्लोक ८ / ७ ] और दूसरी वर्ण - आश्रम धर्म के अनुसार अपने नियत एवं सहज कर्म 
[ १८ / ७; १८ /४८ ] को करना | अर्जुन के सामने उस समय युद्ध करना ही उसका सहज कर्म था ,अत: भगवान ने युद्ध करने की आज्ञा दी | ज्ञानी भक्त को [श्लोक ३ /३० ]अपना सहज 
कर्म समता - युक्त निष्काम कर्म मन बुद्धि को भगवान में अर्पण करके ,भगवान के लिए ,निर्मम ,निर-अहंकार ,निस्पृह ,व निर् -विकार भाव से [ श्लोक १२ /१० ] करना चाहिए | अर्थार्त
योग - युक्त [ श्लोक ८ /२७ ] होकर कर्म करना चाहिए |
परन्तु योग की सिद्धि होने के लिए [ श्लोक ६ / १७ ] के अनुसार यथा -योग्य , आहार -विहार , कर्मों में चेष्टा ,व सोना एवं जागना ही बताया है | जिस काल में वश में किया हूवा चित , भली - भांती परमात्मा में सिथ्त्त हो जाता है , उस समय भोगों की इच्छा - रहित मनुष्य योग - युक्त कहा जाता है |
इस प्रकार कर्म करने से साधक का अंत: करण शुद्ध हो जाता है [ ४ /३८ ; ३ /१९ ] एवं उसे अपने आप ही आत्म -ज्ञान हो जाता है | तथा समता से निष्काम -कर्म -योग करने ,फल की इच्छा का त्याग करने पर परम -पद [ २ /५१ ; २ /७१ ] की प्राप्ति हो जाती है | भक्त के कर्म में अगर कोई कमी भी रह जाती है ,तो भगवान की कृपा से [ श्लोक १८ /५६ ]
वह परम -पद की प्राप्ति कर लेता है |
इसी प्रकार ज्ञान -योगी अपने बल से आत्म - ज्ञान तक तो पहुंच जाता है , परन्तु उसे ब्रह्म - ज्ञान तो केवल सद्-गुरु की कृपा से ही प्राप्त हो सकता है |
परन्तु भक्ति -मार्ग में तो सब कुछ भगवान की कृपा से ही प्राप्त हो जाता है | सुदामा , प्रहलाद , ध्रुव आदि इसके प्रत्यक्ष उदाहरण हैं |

Breaking the laws of nature

Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra I





The great mantra dedicated to Shiva as Mrityunjaya is found in the Rig Veda. It is called the Maha Mrityunjaya mantra, the Great Death-Conquering mantra. It is a mantra that has many names and forms. It is called the Rudra mantra, referring to the furious aspect of Shiva; the Tryambakam mantra, alluding to Shiva's three eyes; and its is sometimes known as the Mrita-Sanjivini mantra because it is a component of the "life-restoring" practice given to the primordial sage Shukra after he had completed an exhausting period of austerity. The Maha Mrityunjaya mantra is hailed by the sages as the heart of the Veda. Along with the Gayatri mantra it holds the highest place among the many mantras used for contemplation and meditation.


ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे, सुगंधिम पुष्टि-वर्धनम
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनं, मृत्योर मुक्षीय मामृतात


अर्थ - समस्त संसार के पालनहार, तीन नेत्रों वाले भगवन शिव की हम अराधना करते है !
विश्व में सुरभि फेलाने वाले भगवान शिव, मृत्यु न की मोक्ष से हमें मुक्ति दिलाएं

The word ‘Hindu’

In the holy text the Merutantra, the word ‘Hindu’ is defined as 'Hinani Gunani dushyati iti Hindu.' Meaning that which destroys or dushyati the inferior raja-tama components or gunas (subtle spiritual components) is a Hindu. Thus, to be a Hindu is to follow a way of life that enhances the spiritually pure sattva component and sattva predominant qualities like love, humility, courage, expansiveness, etc. and overcomes the spiritually impure raja-tama predominant attitudes like anger, attachment, jealousy, greed, lust, pride etc

science of Spirituality


As per the science of Spirituality, our true state of existence is identification with the Soul or God-principle within us and living our day-to-day life with this consciousness. As the one and same God-principle exists within all there is Unity in all Creation. Ego (aham) means considering oneself to be distinct from others and God due to identification with the physical body and impressions (sanskaars) in various centres of the subtle body. In short, ego is leading our life as per the thinking that our existence is limited to our 5 senses, mind and intellect, and identifying with them to various degrees.

God has zero ego. Hence the best way to destroy ego in oneself if to become like Him, that is to blend with God. Blending with God implies imbibing all of His various qualities in oneself. The efforts to be undertaken daily for this is referred as Spiritual Practice. So, the maximum amount of time we spend in doing spiritual practice the faster ego reduces. In Kaliyug, chanting the Lord’s name is the most effective spiritual practice so as to start one’s spiritual journey.

Bilvapatra (leaves of the bel tree)


Bilvapatra (leaves of the bel tree) contain 2% Shiva tattva. By offering bilvapatra to the Shivpindi on Mahashivaratri, the manifest Shiva tattva near the stalk of the bilvapatra gets activated. Due to this, the waves of Chaitanya (Divine Consciousness) as well as Shiva tattva are emitted by the bilvapatra. The bilvapatra attracts 20% of the Shiva tattva present in the Shivpindi towards itself on that day. By immersing this bilvapatra in water or by placing it in grains, the Shiva tattva present in the bilvapatra is transmitted to them. Generally, the Shiva tattva in the bilvapatra is activated to a larger extent on Mondays when it transmits 10% of the Shiva tattva and sattvikta. On other days only 1% of the Shiva tattva is activated in the bilvapatra.

important constituent of vegetarian diet


One of the most important constituent of vegetarian diet is ghee. Subtle-picture of ghee made from cow’s milk is given below:

<> As the ghee made from cow’s milk is sattvik, the flow of Divine Principle is attracted to it.
- A ring of Divine Principle is created and activated in the ghee.

<> Flow of Divine consciousness (Chaitanya) is attracted to the ghee.
- Through this flow, a ring of Chaitanya is created in the ghee and is activated.
- Particles of mild Chaitanya are also created in the ghee.
- A protective sheath of Chaitanya is created around the ghee.
- Particles of Chaitanya are spread in the environment by the ghee made from cow’s milk.

<> A ring of Chaitanya-filled Divine Energy (Shakti) of the Deity Sri Dhanvantari is created and is activated.
- Particles of Divine Energy are also created and spread in the ghee.

Ghee contains Divine Principle and Chaitanya. Hence it is protected from negative energies. However use of synthetic substances in the preparation of ghee or preparing it in a distressing environment, may attract negative energies from the environment to it.
