व्युत्थान vyutthAna and निर्विकल्प nirvikalpa

व्युत्थान vyutthAna when completely rested, then निर्विकल्प nirvikalpa

Import: In the योग सूत्र Yoga SUtra there is a verse that talks about the व्युत्थान संस्कार vyutthAna samskAra.
YS III.9

This is the संस्कार samskAra of emergence of thought. When this संस्कार samskAra is completely erased then सहज निर्विकल्प समाधि sahaja nirvikalpa samAdhi prevails.

समाधि SamAdhi

समाधि SamAdhi

No sense of I, only You.

Non-dual, no object (no light or sound)

परा वैराग्यं parA vairAgyam दृष्ट अनुश्रविक dRShTa anushravika to all seen and heard

Path to it is blissful

No questions

Nothing is there to be done any more

Peace

No doubts about the state and after

श्रद्धा shraddhA made indestructible

Revelation of knowledge from the infinite library of wisdom inside

Many to Five.

Five to Three.

Three to One.

One and Its Power to be Many.

True Freedom

The only true freedom is freedom from desire.

I am neither good nor bad
Neither perfect nor imperfect
Neither virtuous nor unvirtuous
Neither smart nor stupid
Neither diligent nor negligent
Neither timely nor late

I am.

That is all.

Be in this place. There is no other, in Truth.

The Royal Path

Those who have experienced a full kuNDalinI awakening are marked for a different path; a different life. They are called dvija (or twice born) in the Vedic tradition. Just like royalty cannot live the life of a commoner, the dvija (which is the true meaning of brAhmaNa, and not just birth into a brAhmin family) is now inexorably pulled to the spiritual path; they are the spiritual royalty and cannot live like other people. And yet, the spiritual royal must live like the lowest commoner in this time of kali yuga, for the greater good of all concerned.

prayAsa, or excessive exertion is counterproductive to yoga or union with the Self. Awakening of kuNDalinI can sometimes highly accentuate feelings of fatigue and tiredness. One does not know where the energy can go, but it is going into spiritual tapas.

One must take care, for this path can seem hard and painful at times.

Through past karma one is sometimes impelled to prayAsa. One must try to get enough rest as best as possible, and timely light meals. Showers are refreshing- water is a pure manifestation of consciousness. Gentle prANAyAma is of course helpful always.

For external interactions, always practice as the Yoga SUtra recommends:

maitrI karuNA, muditA upekshAnAm sukha dukha puNya apuNya bhavanAtah cetah prasaAdanam

friendliness to the happy, compassion towards the sad, delight at the virtuous puNya and indifference to the apuNya, these are productive of calmness and tranquillity of mind.

Try to ease the mind to rest and calm as much as possible.

May your burdens be lightened manyfold!

நீயே ஓன்று [Neeye Onru]

நீயே ஓன்று என்று அறியாமல்  தேச கால விளயாட்டை
நான் நிஜம் என்று கருதி இருந்தே உன் சக்திதான் தேவியே

Translation:

Not realizing that You are the Only One, my taking this Play of Time and Space
as real is only your Power, O Goddess!

Love: Personal and Impersonal

Love, personal, is called eros in Greek and shRngAr in Sanskrit. [The ancient languages have these fine distinctions that English lacks.]
As long as ignorance persists, this personal love limits itself to one person or a chosen few.

As long as the object of this personal love pleases the senses and strokes the ego, it feels happy. But the mind being ever-changing, this happiness does not last.

But when the veil of ignorance is lifted and it becomes clear that everything external is loved only for the sake of the Self, then Love Impersonal dawns.

This Love Impersonal is called agape in Greek and prema in Sanskrit. It is the highest form of love, the true love, and not easily understood by the impure mind. It does not seek anything in return and is blind in the sense of being impartial to perceived beauty of the body or mind, because it Sees everything as the Self.

Virtue, Wisdom and Freedom

It is good to be good rather than bad, for the fruits of goodness are better than those of evil.

It is better to be wise rather than simply good, for wisdom transcends both good and evil.

It is best to be free for freedom transcends both wisdom and ignorance.

To always be able to place one's mind at the feet of the Lord is the greatest bliss, wisdom and peace.
