Without Consciousness Nothing Is Alive | Ishwar Puri (Part 4 of 7)

Video Description: It is an honour to be here on the national day of Sweden. We pick up the same subject as yesterday, which is the techniques of meditation. There are two types of meditations- One is to centre yourself within the body BELOW the eyes, and the second is to centre yourself behind and ABOVE the eyes. The former deals with 6 centres of energy (six chakras). A lot of people confuse these. They think we get same results from both. It also depends on what state we meditate. We will have practise of meditation in the wakeful state when you go to different state meditation techniques become different. Where are we in this body? Are we living in the whole of this body equally? If we want to think about it- are we living at one point or equally spread out? It does not take very long to know we are operating from the brain and that all other experiences are arising from because we are operating from there. Our attention is scattered. The most powerful way we use sense perception is via our eyes. Therefore, we find our notional point of existence is behind the eyes in the WAKEFUL state. At night, we don’t remain at the same point but start coming down to the throat centre. The dream eyes the body and see with those eyes and somebody to touch us on our throat(?) โ€“ at dream we will feel we have been attacked on our eyes. This movement of notional point takes us all over the body and can have practise of experiences in these centres. This movement of notional point is a feeling where we are in the body, not the real point. The body itself is a creation of the notional point. It can travel to different parts of body and have different experiences. You can get out-of-body experiences where you can look at your own body but still connected to the body. There are different kinds of yoga being practised- most popular was hath yoga. Will power of mind was used in it, using force up on themselves to make the mind strong so doesn’t get weak. Patanjali yoga came-introduced royal yoga – yoga for relaxation. It is still very popular even today to ascending from bottom of the body chakra and then growing up gradually to the eye centre to discover who they are.

12min- This human body is a unique creation. It’s the most wonderful creation in the entire creation. It is the most valuable thing in any universe, including higher heavens. Likewise, it is the best creation and this creation is surpasses all heavens, astral stage of experiences, akashic records, individuated souls etc. That is why it is said man is made in the image of the creator. Man has something only God has. What is that? When we say man we include women so they shouldn’t get offended ๐Ÿ™‚ God’s will whatever name you give…and then this will doesn’t become anywhere else but in human form (my will). Only two beings if you call them who have capacity to decide is God himself or human being who can say same, that is why ability to experience freewill exists only in human being. The only being in the whole universe and creation that wants to make choice, sis human being. It’s good because you feel like God and you have Atheists who said they make their own choices. But this full feeling is a unique thing. You can then become a seeker to get out of this system. When you seek, you find. If you seek within yourself to find the truth, you will find. You may find little or more but you will find. Qualification on the path to find ultimate reality is he/she is a seeker. Seeking is the main thing. There are so many points, every point generate an experience that you will only see if the body was not there. It is the most wonderful structure. We only examine the outside body, we don’t examine inner parts of the body where different levels of consciousness are imbedded. The distinction between lower and higher is comparable to energy and awareness. These attentions we focus are connected with human body. Spine is like an elevatorโ€”you can go down to the bottom and use different series of mantra so you can rise up like walking upstairs. These are powerful energies below. We digest our food autonomously, heart beat is same- we don’t have a choice. Organs are in the body are divided. That is why second organ below reproductive organ is used in a powerful way and series of yoga such ask kundalini.

23min- The tantric yoga was for sexual energies but died down and very few perform. In the mean time, wise people came up… Buddha…when he came, he taught truth lies behind the eyes. His own teachings were misinterpreted. Interesting and beautiful experience in Tibet border and there they have about 100 monks one starts their mantra…the next one when it reaches half way he starts and so on…the entire sound from 100 monks becomes hmmm in big way which they believe was stated by Buddha. When chanting became popular, it was realised musical meditation technique was the best way to have that experience. So chanting became very popular way…the real secret is the sound but big distinction on music by vocal cords, or instruments external sounds was source. In religious scripture said this sound is eternal (all religions). Some advantages in all these yogas..calmness came up, but these advantages which people felt in relation to outside experiences. There is a group called ‘hare Krishna’ they feel peaceful and calm also but nothing to do with higher awareness. All these relate below the eyes or something outside to themselves. Buddha never talked about the dome outside, he talked about the levels we built stupas…so we seem to externalise everything that was taught for outside. Human body is the natural temple. Religion took that form and separated itself from spirituality. All spiritual teachings say truth lies within you but we not able to go within go outside and making copies here and union of God can take place via external ways of worshipping. You want to develop more energy, go ahead, follow these. They said breathing is a life-force. Prana means life that makes you aware and so so many people using breathing and putting attention of the breath to take you all the centres below and above. Breathing is a physical and is useful if you are going to put attention to the centre of energy below you but not to pull attention upwards. If you are at eye centre at wakeful, why bother going below and then find something higher. Why not start from eye level and go up. Practise related to breathing (pranayam) became popular at one time as people thought getting higher knowledge but higher knowledge only came from the top.

33min- I had a friend Trilok Chand from Burma who was a very keen seeker. He was a miserly person…spend it or not spend it…not spend it. By this lifestyle of living he saved Rs 30,000. He moved to Madras and meet that swamiji as he was so keen to find the truth. Swamiji said, have you heard of the story of King Janak. His seeking was strong that Trilok gave all his money, body, and mind to this swamiji. I have to teach you meditation via pranayam method, which has to be internal…breathing has to be alternatively via one nostril to another. You cannot use your finger as then attention goes to fingers so it needs to be done via tongue. So poor Trilok Chand…used sand paper to cut his tongue…for more than a month he suffered torture…give me your mind while you breathing like this…he was able to see some light colors but no awareness…but this is not real knowledge on who I am. Swamiji said this is the knowledge I have which I have given to you. He eventually came to GM…he met him got initiated and made rapid progress. One day he was sitting with the master and folding his hands he said master if I had known you are real one I would have not given him Rd 30K…Trilok Chand you dont know the day you came I transferred that money to my account. So never feel what you did is not appropriate. PLM see the whole work you have done via seeking.

43min- Telling you distinction between lower centres of energies and higher centre of awareness. I will share with you a story of a swami and my uncle was a weatherman, who invited GM. Swami Brahmanand was a good ayurvedic practice. They came up on an idea that we will invite both to lunch in their house and had a love seat and we will make both of them sit beside each other and bless each other. After a while GM said isnt it a pity that so many swami, yogis and mystics are all tied up enslaved by six centres of energies which are suppose to be our servants and calling them with names of Gods and Goddesses. And we are above all these chakras. 12 chakras behind are the real chakras. Swamiji said I have never heard of 12 chakras but only 6 of them. Where are these 12 chakras. GM said well you know we have limited time here but if you come to Punjab I will explain to you. Swamiji could not sleep! He got so entangled with this discussion that I have to wind up my ashram. He reached the dera and he was given the best guest house in the dera and treat him with dignity of VVIP. He will sit next to me and have access to me 24/7. Swami was given really royal treatment. In those days I used to practise some homeopathy and he had another hut for ayurvedic practise. Swami was in high spirit given 5-star treatment. He once decided to test if he had access to GM 24/7. Master met him…Swamiji said I just want to pay you respect and to say I will enjoy your discourses. A beautiful fun story…gradually he was waiting just like anybody else. One day he said your GM is a great diplomat…he gave me VVIP treatment he boosted my ego and now I have fallen in love with him and he has trapped me with his love. He made good progress internally. This is a story how people get trapped in this thing but when you know your true home is arising from its totality then jouney for the soul is from spirit to totality. We have causal universe where we grasp things we don’t need senses and all logic made there…its a great place. Then we have that which removes all the illusion and we find out we are the soul. We are the creator of this universe i.e. beyond braham..parbraham where we first discover we are a soul and then our true journey begins…what’s our origin…which is the totalitility and we are individuated within that one soul. True home did not divide us. The method that has been used by all PLMs no exceptions is the method to listening to the sound within yourself…it is the creator of everything. That word/ nard/ sound from the sky which is creating everything and we are that. It is the creative power and yet we mistake it for outside sound. In the Bible John’s Gospel says in the beginning was the word, word was God. You look into all scriptures they say it appears to be a sound, it can be heard and travel with it but don’t think it is an external sound. If we follow the sound that meditational technique which this master taught me and worked for me…he told me give it up if it doesn’t work. If you put your attention behind the eyes and not allow it to go down, stay at eye centre, sit behind the eyes with your imagination. We underestimating power of imagination. We are looking for taste and pleasure outside but if you can stablise your inside for a while you can hear music sound inside. You can hear your heart-beat, blood vessels and other sounds like cricket chirping, 10-12 kinds of sounds come when you imagine you are there. They have no pull in them created by your envrionment but not by yourself. Sound from yourself PULLS you. That is the sound which you will like the catch. That sound resembles a bell within. It has a ring…it has a rythm in it. That sound can pull you up..put your attention to that s ound it will take you to inner sky.

Imagination comes from the astral plane, all inspiration comes from there. Place where sensory perception can pickup any ideas.

Ishwar Puri Ji

1hr9min- It’s a great experience and in that state…you have no gravity, no physical things, you fly whenever you like, ascend high-low…you have a memory and clarity that you never had here…you remember things from 1000 years old, past lives memories…yet that is possible by simple way of putting attention within yourself…its not coming from outside…whatever you want to find will find inside your head…that’s the type of meditation I will recommend as it works. If you find anything better, I will like to know it too. Therefore, a meditation techniques that really works that connects our attention to the sound. Our attention needs to be unscattered. One that pulls you most is your own mind…we are the power that makes anything alive, without conciouness nothing is alive including the mind. We are the life giving force and we made these covers more real than ourselves especially the mind. The mind we think is not an independent machine. The mind becomes an obstruction by contionous impersonating. We have lost the ability to ignore the mind, which we always had. On other hand, what are we supposed to do…then we are sad and feeling of negativity. If you took control over your mind…what would happen…your life will change instantly as then you will be telling the mind what to think. Don’t forget these are costumes we are wearing…it gives us a character. We forgot truth as we wanted to experience reality and started to believe we are the costume. When we go within we realise this is not us…this body is not us. Look at all problems we have are because of identification with body, sense perception and mind…if we know its not us we will have no problems at all. We are sitting in one of the characters…with ups and downs…then we take one of these characters and watch the play. If we watch outside it would be so nice. When we see a movie…we enjoy it…murder takes place …we don’t scream we know its a play on the screen but here we don’t sit in audience but in a character we are so tied up with acting that we begin to suffer in the play. Life changes instantly from now in this meditation technique inside. Actually when you go to sleep and have a dream that body that moves is not this body. You experience pleasure and pain of that body…when the dream is going on. And when you wake up you say thank God it was a dream. It’s the same thing here…when you withdraw inside you see this life as a play. How can you be so miserable and if you experience that. Side benefit of meditation are sevaral…you get a clarity of vision, the doubts disappear, fear disappear, no one can hurt you…there never be a hurt. Even if you don’t want to go back home…make it worth while and make it better so meditation is good for that too. This way of meditaiton of sitting in the head as starting point…this is a sky all changes…inner sky never changes..its grey and yet you can see everything in it. Every person, thing has its own light. Higher is orange sky in the casual plane…sky itself is worth going there! Everything is brillant because of that sky, mental activities comes right from there. We will reassemble at 2pm โค
