Mantrams- 11,12.( the final stage of the chapter.)


1. When devas found the attempts of agni and vayu failed, they requested their king to take the mission.


2. Lord Indra left to find the secret of the Spirit.


3. On seeing the the approaching king the Yaksha disappeared.


4. But Indra  did not withdraw his mission, moved forward, then Goddess Uma appeared to bless them.

========================================================================= Monday,  January 02,  2023. 07:30. SECTION -TWO :  THE PHILOSOPHY OF YAKSHOPAKHYANA : (Continued) Post-12. ========================================================================= MEDITATION ON BRAHMAN : The story teaches us that everything is despicable except the knowledge of Brahman. The glory of this world is less than a straw. The greatest of the gods are nothing before the Brahman. Even the king of the gods is nothing before it. The story also shows that it is very difficult to realise Brahman, as even the best of the gods failed in their attempts to comprehend it. It further shows that Agni, Vayu and Indra became great through the knowledge of Brahman alone. Brahmajnana is supreme greatness and glory. It is vain to think that any individual has the power to act or to enjoy. It is Brahman that is, and nothing else.  Brahman is the embodiment of all qualities, powers and existence. It is possible for anyone

THE PHILOSOPHY OF YAKSHOPAKHYANA : 2. Post-19. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another instruction that this story gives us is that Brahman does exist.

The very fact that it attempts at something constantly, shows that it is not real.  Moreover, the ego is subdued every moment either through external or internal agencies. One day or the other, all the egos shall be smashed. The grief of this world is the experien

 ======================================================================= ======================================================================= Tuesday, September 20, 2022. 07:00. SECTION TWO MANTRAM 4. Post -7. ======================================================================== MANTRAM 4 : Consciousness should be realised as the fundamental basis of all mental experiences. It should be realised in every state of our life in waking, dreaming and deep sleep. All thoughts are heterogeneous in their nature. They are not connected with one another. But they are experienced as belonging to one person because of the unity of the Self within. Our body, senses and mind are all made up of scattered parts that appear to be a unified whole because of the underlying indivisible essence. If only the Self were not there, our personality would be thrown away into the condition of atoms, disconnected and varied. There is no difference at all between the building bricks of one body and of another
