37 Mantram - 4.5: To Attain Totality, Abandon Individuality

Post - 37.

=========================================================================

37 Mantram - 4.5: To Attain Totality, Abandon Individuality

yasmin dyauh prithivee = He, in whom the heaven, the earth,

cha antariksham, = and the interspacial regions

otam manah saha = are centred; together with the mind

praanaih cha sarvaih; = and all the life-breaths (Pranas);

tam eva ekam = That One alone –

jaanatha aatmaanam, = know That to be the Self of all (Brahman).

anyaa vaacho vimunchatha = Desist from all other talk;

amritasya eshah setuh. = for This is the Bridge to the shore of Immortality!

=========================================================================

The Link in the Bhashya stresses the need for repetition in a topic as important as

the union with the Supreme Brahman. Since one in a million people may strive towards this

goal, it shows how hard it is to grasp this idea fully. Even intellectual comprehension is so

hard, let alone actually realizing the Self. The need for sticking tenaciously to the original

Goal is highlighted here. We recall that the Path adopted in this Upanishad is to approach

the Supreme via the Tat Pada, i.e. the Samashti or Macrocosm.

Therefore, at no stage should we permit ourselves to be deflected from that Goal by

egoistic notions. We have to forget our individuality at the very outset. The Goal chosen is

to unite with the Supreme by meditating on our oneness with the whole cosmos.

Yasmin – “In Him”, i.e. in the Supreme Purusha; heaven, earth and the interspace

merge into the Supreme. This implies that all Space is to be transcended. If Space is

transcended, then Time also is automatically transcended, as the two function together.

The destruction or the dissolution of the mind is meant here, which is the same as

giving up all desires and selfish interests. The mind is nothing without its bundle of desires.

3-4

“Desist from all other talk.” At this point the Rishi insists on the seeker keeping

faith with his original Goal. At no cost must he be tempted to change the technique he is

shown here. There is no point in changing boats in midstream, as it were. One has to stay in

the same boat till the other shore is reached.

The other shore is Immortality. Until that is reached, no time should be wasted on

discussions on the merits or demerits of the path chosen.

In the method chosen here, the seeker has at the very outset given up all clinging to

his individual personality. Personal considerations are therefore not dealt with in this

Upanishad. It is important to remember this, as otherwise one could go away with the

feeling that this Upanishad is lop-sided in its approach to Truth.

One can hear the anguished concern of the Teacher: “Him alone who is one without

a second, O disciples, know Him alone to be the Self, He is your innermost Reality as also the

Self of all beings. The principle of Ego is to be negated to achieve this.”

=========================================================================

1. SANATANA DHARMA, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS HINDUISM IS ETERNAL, WHOLE UNIVERSE IS EXISTING IN THIS TRUTH

2. EVER EXISTING

7. NATURE IS ABOVE ALL, EVER EXISTING, ALL OTHERS MEANINGLESS.

8. THE CONTENT OF SO-CALLED HOLY BOOK IS NO HOLY AT ALL, AS IT PREACHES HATRED AND DESTRUCTION OF OTHER MANKIND, RELIGIOUS CONVERSIONS AND LIES OF UNCIVILIZED MATERIALS

9. CHRISTIANITY IS EQUALLY DEMONSTRATED CRUELTY, THE SO-CALLED HOLY BOOK FULL OF LIES

10. BOTH ARE NOT RELIGIONS BUT SAMPRADAYA (ILLITERATE MAN MADE, NOT BASED ON DHARMA

11. THE CULTURE OF BHARATHAM BASED ON UPANISHADS AND FULL OF REALISATION TEXTS ARE PRODUCED BY GREAT RISHIS OF BHARATHAM

12. IN THIS MATERIALISTIC DESTRUCTIVE MINDED UNIVERSE, NO RELIGIONS COMPARABLE OR ABOVE SANATANA DHARMA OF BHARATHAM.

2. Congress & Communists destroyed this holy Nation Sanatana Dharama; the imported stupid secularism degenerated this Nation Ancient Culture and Civilization

3. Till 2014 nation was ruled by corrupt idiots,and all regions too, Dynasty rule dominated than Nation interests.

4. Brushing away mainstream population sides and Muslims and Christians become political parties vote banks.

5. Communists openly abused our ancient culture, Upanishads, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bhagavtham and daites.

6. The communists next donkey group, latest stunt of America visit and the comedy programmed namely Kerala sabha!? these buggers destroyed Kerala in all and joining with radical Islam soon they will be eliminated, people of Kerala get up from donkey thoughts, otherwise Kerala shrink to extinct in all way.

7. Communists are danger to our civilization, their lunatic theories disappeared throughout the world, Time has come crush them, and eliminate them from our nation, they are danger to this holy nation.

=========================================================================
