Chapter-1.


Section-2. ( Rituals )


Mantram - 11. [ What  men  with  knowledge  ( Upasana )  attain ].


Mantram-11.



Discussion-3. "Krama - mukti" ........



Those,  who,  not  only  perform  the  Yajna-s  and  Yaga-s,  but  along  with  these,  also  meditate  upon  the  great  Truth  of  our  philosophy  (  i.e,  those  who  perform  'Karma' and  Upasana),  at  death  leave  the  body  and  take  the  northern  route  ( Utharayanam )  and,  through  the  corridors  of  the  "Sun,"  go  beyond  and  enter  the  Brahma  lokam,  the  Supreme-most  world  of  the  Creator.


There,  these  lucky  souls  not  only  live  of  the  higher  joy,  but  also  attend  to  the  great  discources  given  out  to  them  by  Brahmaji,  the  first  Guru  of  "Brahma-Vidya.


It  is  a  belief  that  they,  along  with  the  creator,  at  the  end  of  the  "Yugam," during  the  "Pralayam,"  get  merged  with  the  Supreme  Absolute  Awareness.


This  method  of  liberation  is  technically  called  "Krama  Mukti" (  or  gradual  liberation).

Next : Summation.....

To be continued  ...





know the self, know the self in Nature, know the self in Jiva, Further Oneness.

Everyone in this family has studied the holy scriptures and the spiritual way.” So Svetaketu went to a teacher and studied the scriptures for twelve years.

In the same way, by knowing a piece of gold, all that is made of gold can be known, since any differences are only wo...
