  • Death Chant Of Hinduism Karna Mantra

    This post is meant for people who believe in God , not for those who believe in Love, though not have seen it,yet deny God.

    We in our normal lives, imagine we have no time to think of God,( yet we do have time for TV and Politics); it is much more difficult to think of God when we lie dying when your senses are leaving you and you are in pain.

    Bhagavad Gita Sloka.
    Bhagavad Gita Sloka.

    Hindu Sastras declare that one becomes what one thinks of at the time of Death.

    So the Sastras enjoin one to name their children in the name of God.

    By calling out to them,though you do not mean it,you call out God and He remembers, for Fire will singe you whether you are aware of it or not.

    What name is to call out as Death stalks.

    The One who guides you at and after Death is Lord Vishnu, the protector.

    He is the Ultimate Ruler of Death in His Name Govinda.

    Govinda is the name which is very dear to Lord Krishna, an Avatar of Vishnu.

    The name is to be called out.

    When and if you can not call this Name. those around you are required to recite the Vishnu Sahasranama or Om NamaSivaya.

    Yet there is an important ceremony to be performed by the eldest son at the time of Death of his parents.

    He is to keep the head of the parent at the time of dying on his left thigh and chant this mantra.

    sarva-dharman parityajya
    mam ekam saranam vraja
    aham tvam sarva-papebhyo
    moksayisyami ma sucah

    SYNONYMS

    sarva-dharman–all varieties of Dharma; parityajya–abandoning;mam–unto Me; ekam–only; saranam–surrender; vraja–go; aham–I;tvam–you; sarva–all; papebhyah–from sinful reactions; moksayisyami–deliver; ma–not; sucah–worry.

    Abandon all varieties of Religion, Dharma and just surrender unto Me. I shall deliver you from all sinful reaction and grant you Salvation. Do not fear.

    Here Lord Krishna uses the rarely used form of address to speak to Arjuna.

    That is ‘Ma Sucha’

    This is a term of endearment by a Father to his son.

    Krishna does not use this term anywhere to address Arjuna , in the Mahabharata, not did he use this term to anybody in the Puranas, including His children.

    What are the different Dharmas?

    At one point Krishna declares in the Bhagavad Gita that it is very difficult to understand the term Dharma or its implications , under different circumstances.

    Dharma may be loosely translated as  Righteousness; it is much more than this, please read The Gita.

    The Different types of Dharma.

    Varna Dharma. Duties prescribed  for your natural disposition.

    Asrama Dharma, Duties applicable to your station in life, as a Bachelor, Married Man, semi retired from family and totally renounced.

    Duties are also prescribed for special circumstances.

    And there are exceptions too!

    When Krishna says leave all Karmas, He means that one should mentally  renounce the fruits of actions, better still even the performance of Action

    This is the Karna Mantra.

    Of all the senses, at the time of Natural death, the ears give out first.

    So at the early signs of death’s approach, this mantra is to recited.

  • Stem Cell DNA Restructure Technology In Hinduism

    This is a sequel to my post on Indian Thoughts,Advanced Modern Concepts  and Advanced Atomic theory Weapons in Hinduism.

    In the latter I have indicated the advanced concepts in Atomic Theory of Nyaya and Vaiseshika Systems .

    Please read the texts of these systems to know more on the subject as  dealing with them exlusively will demand a series of lengthy articles.

    My purpose is to point the directions and people may follow the texts .

    Now in this essay we shall look into Biology,Bio Engineering.

    Gender Transformation Surgery.

    Though there are instances of man becoming a woman ,a man in Hinduism including that of Arjuna becoming Bruhannala in the Mahabharata during Ajnatha Vaasa, the earliest detailed Gender Transformation Surgery is that of Ila, a woman becoming a Man (Vaivasvatha Manu Dynasty).

    In the Vishnu Purana the surgical procedural hints are provided.

    Maithra varunas are the Surgeons,Ila became  Sudhyumna.

    In the case of Arjuna becoming Bruhannaa in The Mahabharata, the genetic code of Arjuna was pre-programmed in the form of a Saapa.

    In most of the Saapas, the Curse is actually a Scientific procedure whereby the Rishis who can restructure the Molecules of anything, reprogram them either at the present time or alter the Genetic codes for the Future for they can transcend Space Time.

    For those who follow Quantum, this is no story, but a fact.

    DNA Replication Steps.
    DNA Replication

    Restructuring of The Fetus.

    Hindus were in a position to reassemble , restructure a Fetus and helped create more than one Infant from a Single Fetus taken from the Womb.

    Indra retrieved the fetus from the Womb of Thithi, wife of Kashyapa, surgically cut them into Forty Nine Infants.

    They are  called Maruts and became Deva Ganas of Indra.

    They are called Maruts for Indra told them.

    ‘Do nor Cry-Maa Rothi’

    Stem Cell Therapy.

    Stem Cell Research.

    Most important Stem Cell Cure and creation of a New Entity is the creation of Vajrayutha of Indra.

    A seer  Dadeesi gave Indra his Spine which was converted into a Powerful weapon, Vajrayudha, after realigning the Molecules to make it a Weapon with the help of Maruts,

    Test Tube babies.

    The First Test Tube baby is Sage Agasthya.

    Reassembling of Human Parts.

    A Dismembered Body was reassembled by following Micro Surgery.

    This was again preprogrammed in the DNA.

    This was the case with Jarasantha,whose body once torn was reassembled many a times over,till the Genetic manipulation was reversed.

  • Directing The Mind, Yoga Sutra 1.12

    Lord Krishna's Bhagavad Gita
    Lord Krishna’s Bhagavad Gita Sermon to Arjuna.

    Explaining that the modifications of the Chithi,Yoga delves further into describing the tool that can make the Modifications extinct and enable the Individual to return to his original Self or His Natural Identity..

    The modifications of the Chitha starts from and due to the Mind and its activities.

    Can we control The Mind be controlled and make us do our bidding?

    Yoga confirms we can.

    But it is difficult.

    We are aware how difficult it is to reign in the Mind.

    The more one tries to control the Mind, more it would become uncontrollable and roam, than it would have been, had we kept quiet.

    This is not a disqualification for practicing Yoga nor is this unique to you, of us , the fickle minded.

    Arjuna,who mastered the art of Concentration, for he was the one, when asked by his Guru to hit a bird,after felling it , said later, that he could see nothing else but the bird only, found it difficult to control the Mind and confesses to lord Krishna in The Bhagavad Gita.(6.34)

    Bhagavd Gita 6.34
    Bhagavd Gita 6.34

    ‘This Mind,Krishna, has the ability  to confound the senses into running after objects, fickle and strong;It is as difficult as controlling the wind’

    Lord Krishna agrees with him and replies,

    ‘
    ‘O son of Kunti, without doubt mind is difficult to restrain, prone to agitation; but it can be controlled by repetitive practice and by Right Resolve.’ (6.35)

    Mind can be controlled by Practice and Right Resolve .

    Yoga says the same.

     

    Patanjali Yoga 1.12
    Yoga Sutra 1.12

    By regular practice and Right Resolve one can make mind one’s own.

    Vairagaya or Right Resolve and Abhyasa, regular practice, is explained in the coming Sutras.

  • Belief Faith and Miracles

    My son was telling me( he is a Believer, Agnostic and a Non believer, all rolled into one, don’t ask me how, he is-I do not tell him what he should,on occasions I used to suggest him when he is that state of Mind to enquire within;he also knows the essentials of Indian Thought and knows important Sruti by heart) and an hour ago asked my that Miracles happened in the past ,especially in Treta Yuga( an Indian Aeon) and people thought of God and He appeared and why they do not now,

    I am posting the essence of the discussion.

    Lord Krishna.
    Lord Krishna as a child.

    In Indian Philosophy, unlike in other Philosophical Systems of the World, there is no such thing as  ‘Super Natural’

    For a Hindu, everything in the Universe is natural, be it Rebirth, Good Actions producing  good results, Bad, the bad.Clairvoyance and the like and God.

    God would appear if one where to call out to Him..

    And that to in the Form the Caller wanted Him!

    Is this due to Faith?

    Answer is Yes and No.

    Let me explain.

    Belief is the feeling that some thing or some event would be the same way as it has been in our experience..

    Child believes that its Mother would take care of it.

    This kind Belief turns into Faith when the Belief turns out to be true at all times in one’s experience.

    This Faith performs the seemingly impossible.

    Faith is clothed as ‘Positive thoughts’ in modern parlance.

    When one thinks he has Faith, he has lost it.

    It should be as natural as breathing and to cite a daily example ‘the morning Ablutions’.

    These things, you do not contemplate, analyse,but are Natural.

    When one thinks he has Faith, he is aware of it and expects things to happen definitely.

    But if this feeling is natural, you do not even for a second contemplate the desired result, because you are unconsciously convinced the that the desired result would be there and It is there for you..

    Pu it simply, it is the Faith of the Child in its Mother.

    In this sense, Faith does not perform Miracles,

    It does , when one does and has the disposition of doing things naturally.

    For people of the earlier Yugas, Miracles and Faith did not exist separately for them.

    Faith was in their being and the result was embedded in that Feeling.

    Hence they could do and see things which we, to-day call as Miracles .

    Arjuna believed Krishna , had faith in Him.

    He never thought it was  faith, it was a natural feeling with him.

    If he had Faith on Lord Krishna only because he believed Krishna to be God , Arjuna would not have called Krishna as ‘a Cowherd, Friend(yadava, Saket and in many instances ridiculed him(He apologized to Krishna in The Bhagavad Gita for this in The Viswaroopa chapter of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita)

    Arjuna took Krishna as his friend and treated him accordingly and what we call Miracles to-day were there for him.

    The moment Arjuna felt differently, he was routed.

    There is a story in the Mahabharata which narrates this point.

    After the passing away of Lord Krishna(the term Dehavyoha is to be used here), Arjuna’s wives were captured by ordinary Dacoits..

    Sage Narada was present  at his side.

    Arjuna got agitated and swore that he would finish the dacoits off , get his wives back and bragged that those dacois did not know the power of Arjuna and his Kandipa(Arjuna’s Bow)

    Narada just smiled and accompanied Arjuna in this assault on the dacoits.

    Arjuna’s Kandiva was ineffective , broken and he was squarely beaten by the dacoits.

    He asked Narada what happened to him and his Kandiva.
    Narada replied,

    ‘You forgot the essential part of You, Lord Krishna; so long He was apart of You naturally , you vanquished every one.

    Now you are humiliated”

    Arjuna yearns for Krishna and  got his wives back after defeating the dacoits with his Kandiva.

    So long as belief and Faith  natural and a part of you, nothing is a Miracle.

    You shall get whatever  you want( so long it does not run contrary to Dharma(Righteousness)

    This self belief is to be inculcated in the Children right from their infancy as it has been the case  with Dhruv(Dhruva) or Prahlad.

    Then there are no Mountains, only mole hills in Life.

    ‘Aakaasath Pathitham Thoyam Yatha gachathi Saagaram,

    Sarva Deva Namaskarah Kesavam Partichathi’

    ( As water from Rains, in the form Rivulets, Streams. Ponds, Rivers ultimately reaches and get submerged in the Ocean and become a part of it,worship of all and any God ultimately reaches Kesava( Lord Vishnu)

    An action is worth thousand words.

     

    When one does there is no necessity for words.

     

    Nor does one to need to communicate and the action earns approbation beyond words.

     

    Bhisma, The Grand Sire of the Bharata Clan, was felled by the arrow of Arjuna in the Epic Battle of Mahabharata.

     

    He was in acute discomfort, the countless  arrows being uneven on the ground.

     

    He was awaiting the Northern Path, or The Uttarayan of The Sun to leave the mortal coil.

     

    He looked around his Clan, including Arjuna and Lord Krishna and fixed his eyes on Krishna.

     

    Krishna looked at Arjuna.

     

    Arjuna extracted a string of arrows and arrayed them evenly, had Bhishma lifted,placed on this bed and Bhishma was comfortable, the level being even.

     

    He was thirsty and no amount of water could quench his thirst.

     

    Arjuna sent an arrow down the earth near Bhishma’s head, and out came Ganges,The River Ganga, Mother of Devavrta,now known as Bhishma.

     

    Bhishma was quenched of his thirst and his yearning to see his mother before his death.

     

    When The Heart communicates there is no need for words.

     

    Compare this with

     

    “கண்ணொடு கண் நோக்கொக்கின் வாய்ச்சொற்கள் என்ன பயனும் இல’

     

    (If Eyes were to communicate, words are of no use)

     

     

    No words spoken!
