SG Ruminations Vol 1 by Sabari Ganesh (booksvooks .txt) 📖

have free will is MAYA. Illusion.

Aham and Mamam is MAYA. Detachment bestows peace. Detachment is not careless attitude. Detachment to fruit of actions grants a converged focus on the task performed without any distraction. Detachment grants concentration.

A focused and concentrated effort is the fruit of detachment to results. So, to stay focused in real sense; detachment becomes a prerequisite. It is to renounce the fruit of actions and to gain detachment; we need a GURU. The attitude of complete surrender to GURU is the easiest path.

Detachment lands us in such a place; where the mind is without fear and the head is held high in reverence; not ego.

Essence of detachment is the realisation of unity at substratum. Essence of unity is Adwaitham. Adwaitham Paramaartha Sathiyam. Essence of religious activity is spirituality. Essence of spirituality is humility. Essence of humility is detachment.

SGR31

The focus of any religious and spiritual activity is to get rid of Karma. Abandoning the sense of performance is the only way to it. As long as sense of performance exist, Karma exist. As long as karma exist, the cycle of birth and death exist. Slavery is submitting to senses. Independence is to overcome senses.

A prescribed religious routine aids the mind to free itself from desire; hence sense of performance. Just try to lose the sense of doership. It'll create a lot of magic. Detachment is the key to peace. Everything is maaya. Impermanent, hallucinations.

SGR32

Freedom should be flanked by responsibility and loyalty; else would be highly damaging. The objective of technology is to simplify and not complicate. Independence gained by freedom fighters was against atrocity and injustice. No point celebrating independence while remaining corrupt.

The present days' atrocity and injustice is corruption and bureaucracy. Mere hypocrisy celebrating independence while remaining corrupt. Corruption and bureaucracy removed, the fruit of progress and development would be luscious. Independence is then real and sensible. Its painfully funny when we see people in senior most positions cheat. Lack of self-confidence is their trouble.

SGR33

When hobbies become jobs; work becomes fun?.

SGR34

The next step forward to seeing GOD in statues is to see GOD in every living form. And It is the most difficult. Every form of GOD is just an embodiment of Justice, Honesty, Righteousness, Principles and Truth.

Psychic powers delude. When I see unity at substratum, where is the place for Psychic powers? Do I need special powers to know my thoughts? When only "I" exist, where is the place for Psychic powers? Maya...Maya...

Even at the helm of spiritual practice, one could get deluded so easily. Attitude of complete surrender is essential. Detachment is the key. Humility is the essence of spirituality.

SGR35

Crematorium is the place where dead bodies are burnt. Doesn't eating the bodies of animals make our stomach a crematorium?

SGR36

Complete trust is the basis for any relationship. Trust is the elementary component of Life. We go to temples to pray to GOD say, Muruga. As long as "HE" is stone; no problem. If "HE" comes to life to talk to us; then, our faith?

We worship Nagadevatha. As long as it is stone, No problem. If it comes to life, then? Faith matters. Our faith is that, GOD exist in the form of stone and metal. GOD will never talk to us. Faith.

What is the guarantee that GOD is not amidst us in a form that we can interact with? What is GOD? If "This" is GOD, then anything that is not "This" is not GOD. Then there is something that is not GOD. So, GOD is incomplete.? If something is incomplete, then it cannot be supreme ultimate. So, GOD is complete. So, everything is GOD. Even we are GOD. "I" am "GOD". Just need to realise it. Purpose of Life - Human Birth.

So, logically, I know that "I" am GOD. What I need is to experience. Surrendering the I to a GURU will remove the veil for the real "I" to shine.

SGR37

எந்த தெய்வ உருவமும் நீதி, நேர்மை, நியாயம், தர்மம், சத்தியம் ஆகியவற்றின் வெளிப்பாடாக இருக்க வேண்டும்.

நீதி இருக்கும் வரை அநீதி இருக்கும்; நியாயம் இருக்கும் வரை அநியாயம் இருக்கும்; தர்மம் இருக்கும் வரை அதர்மம் இருக்கும்; சத்தியம் இருக்கும் வரை அசத்தியம் இருக்கும்; இவற்றை கடந்து செல்வதே மனித வாழ்வின் குறிக்கோள்; அதுவே அத்வைதம். தேவா...

போற்றுவார் போற்றலும் தூற்றுவார் தூற்றலும் போகட்டும் ஆத்மதேவனுக்கே. நான் செய்வது ஏதும் இல்லை; நான் என்பதே இல்லை; எல்லாம் ஆத்மதேவன் செயல். ஆத்மதேவா சரணம்.

எது எது போய்விடுகிறதோ அதை விட்டுவிட்டு;எது எது கிடைக்கிறதோ அதை எடுத்துக்கொண்டு; எந்த வித மனோ விகாரங்களும் இல்லாமல்;எல்லாம் ப்ரஹ்மமே என்று இருப்பதே தேவ பூஜை.

இருளை போக்கும் ஒரே மார்க்கம் ஞான விளக்கை ஏற்றுவதே; அன்றி இருளோடு யுத்தம் செய்வதில்லை.

அத்வைதம் பரமார்த்த சத்தியம். அகண்ட எகஸமாயுள்ள அது மனம், வாக்கு இவைகளுக்கு அப்பாற்பட்டது. எல்லாவற்றையும் கடந்த மெய்பொருள் எல்லாவற்றிலும் உள்ளது. அது ஒன்றே எல்லாமுமாக உள்ளது. அதுவே அத்வைதம். அதை துதிப்பதே ஞானம். ஆத்மதேவன் உத்தரவின்றி அணுவும் அசையுமோ? தேவா. சுயபரிசோதனையோ.? மனம் இறக்கட்டுமே தேவா. இன்றே... இப்போதே...ஓம்

SGR38

Every incident has a profound reason hidden behind it. Agree? What could be the purpose behind dreams? We dream of many things; we see many people in our dreams; we see them performing many actions; we come across many emotions in our dreams; But, when we wake up; there remains only "I". Every person in our dream is just this "I". There was never a new and different person all along.

Everything we saw and experienced in our dreams is just a personification of "I". When we wake up; the illusions disappear; and Truth alone remains. Similarly, when I wake up from this "Prapancha Swapna" "I" alone remain. With the dawn of Gnana, Diversity disappear. Adwaitham.

With the dawn of Gnana, Prathipaasika sathyam and Viyavahaarika sathyam diappear and just Paramaartha sathyam - Adwaitham remains. With the dawn of Gnana, every other feeling and emotion dissolves in Aanandham. Absolute Bliss.
