वेद वाणी : शुक्ल यजुर्वेद
या ते धामान्य् उश्मसि गमध्यै यत्र गावो भूरिशृङ्गा ऽ अयासः । अत्राह तद् उरुगायस्य विष्णोः परमं पदम् अव भारि भूरि । ब्रह्मवनि त्वा क्षत्रवनि रायस्पोषवनि पर्य् ऊहामि । ब्रह्म दृम्̐ह क्षत्रं दृम्̐हायुर् दृम्̐ह प्रजां दृम्̐ह ॥
~ शुक्लयजुर्वेद ६.३
...

" हे यज्ञीय संसाधनो ! जो सूर्य-रश्मियों से प्रकाशित हैं, सर्वव्यापक सम्मानीय भगवान् विष्णु का जो परम धाम हैं, हम आपको ऐसे उत्तम स्थान में पहुँचने की इच्छा करते हैं | हम आपको ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय एवं वैश्य आदि वर्णों में यथा-योग्य उचित रीति से बल-वैभव का वितरण करने वाला मानते हैं | अतः आप ब्रह्मनिष्ठों को सद्ज्ञान की सम्पद, क्षत्रियों को पौरुष-पराक्रम एवं वैश्यों को धन-ऐश्वर्य प्रदान करें, प्रजा की आयु और उसकी संख्या में वृद्धि करें | "
विष्णोः कर्माणि पश्यत यतो व्रतानि पस्पशे ।
इन्द्रस्य युज्यः सखा ॥
~ शुक्लयजुर्वेद ६.४

" हे याजकों ! सर्वव्यापक भगवान् विष्णु के सृष्टि संचालन सम्बन्धी कार्यों को (प्रजनन, पोषण एवं परिवर्तन की पक्रिया को) ध्यान से देखे | इसमें अनेकानेक नियमों-अनुशासनों का दर्शन किया जा सकता हैं | आत्मा के योग्य मित्र उस परम सत्ता के अनुकूल बनकर रहें (अर्थात् ईश्वरीय अनुशासनों का पालन करें |) "
Purport :
(By Swami Dayananda Sarswati of Arsha Vidya Gurukulam)
Whether you have dismissed or accepted God, his existence remains a mystery to you, for you find yourself in a given scheme of things that consists of certain laws. These laws are many and varied but they do form a universe. You can, perhaps, even reduce this entire universe to mathematical equations. You can have differing standpoints based on these equations and derive different models of the universe. One thing is very clear, however: whatever be the standpoint, there is a given world, a given scheme of things. And in the scheme of things you find you are a person, an individual. This individual has certain endowments, a physical body that is alive, was born alive, is capable of growing into adulthood, and is subject to aging and passing away. These are given facts. When I look at this body I find it consists of certain laws, niyati. The body is caused by, and is subject to, certain biological laws. There also are physiological laws that govern the body, and there are definitely psychological laws. So, too, there are laws governing your ability to remember, to recall. There are laws governing your knowing and not knowing. All these laws can be brought under one word : ‘order’. There is a physical order outside, a biological order, a physiological order, a psychological order, and there is an intellectual or epistemological order. All these constitute one huge order that is given.
तद् विष्णोः परमं पदम्̐ सदा पश्यन्ति सूरयो दिवीव चक्षुर् आततम् ॥
~ शुक्लयजुर्वेद ६.५
" ज्ञानीजन विश्वव्यापी भगवान् विष्णु के सर्वोच्च पद को, द्युलोक में परिव्याप्त दिव्यप्रकाश की भाँति देखते हैं (अर्थात् उस परमात्मा की व्यापकता का अनुभव करते हैं |)

HINDU SCRIPTURES QUOTES

उपनीय तु यः शिष्यं वेदमध्यापयेद्द्विजः ।
सकल्पं सरहस्यं च तमाचार्यं प्रचक्षते ।।
~ मनुस्मृति २.१४०
" A Brahmana who having performed the Upanayanam of his pupil, teaches him the Vedas with all its mysteries and Kalpas is said to be an Acharya unto that pupil. "
आचिनोति च शास्त्रार्थान् आचारे स्थापयत्यपि ।
स्वयम् आचरते यस्मात् तस्मादाचार्य उच्यते ॥
~ याज्ञवल्क्य स्मृति
" He is known as an Acharya who acquires the supreme knowledge by the study of sacred texts, who by the way of imparting the same to others makes them adopt the religious life as laid down by the Shastra, and he himself strictly follows the same. "
Knowledge gained by mere study of scriptures cannot serve the purpose of being instructed by an Acharya :

" श्रुतँह्येव मे भगवद्दृशेभ्य आचार्याद्धैव विद्या विदिता साधिष्ठं प्रापतीति "
~ छान्दोग्य उपनिषद ४.९.३
" For I have heard from persons like you that it is only such knowledge as is learnt from the Acharya, that is the best. "
तद्विद्धि प्रणिपातेन परिप्रश्नेन सेवया ।
उपदेक्ष्यन्ति ते ज्ञानं ज्ञानिनस्तत्वदर्शिनः ॥
~ गीता ४.३४
" Know that (knowledge), by prostrating yourself, by questions, and by service; the wise, those who have realised the Truth, will instruct you in that knowledge. "
" तद्विज्ञानार्थं स गुरुमेवाभिगच्छेत् समित्पाणिः श्रोत्रियं ब्रह्मनिष्ठम् "
~ मुण्डक उपनिषद् १.२.१२
" For knowing that Reality he should go, with sacrificial faggots in hand, only to a teacher who is versed in the Vedas and is absorbed in Brahman. "
न नरेणावरेण प्रोक्त एष सुविज्ञेयो बहुधा चिन्त्यमानः।
अनन्यप्रोक्ते गतिरत्र नास्ति अणीयान् ह्यतर्क्यमणुप्रमाणात् ॥
~ कठोपनिषद् १.२.८
" This Atman now explained cannot easily be known if taught by a person of inferior intellect being variously regarded. When it is taught by a preceptor, one with the Brahman, there is no further travel, his being subtler than the subtle and not arguable. "
नैषा तर्केण मतिरापनेया प्रोक्तान्येनैव सुज्ञानाय प्रेष्ठ ।
यां त्वमापः सत्यधृतिर्बतासि त्वादृङ्नो भूयान्नचिकेतः प्रष्टा ॥
~ कठोपनिषद् १.२.९
" This idea cannot be reached by mere reasoning.This idea, O dearest, leads to sound knowledge, only if taught by another. "
अक्षेत्रवित क्षेत्रविदं हयप्राट स परैतिक्षेत्रविदानुशिष्टः |
एतद वै भद्रमनुशासनोस्योतस्रुतिं विन्दत्यञ्जसीनाम ||
~ ऋग्वेद १०.३२.७
" One not knowing a land asks of one who knows it, he goes forward being instructed by the knowing one. Such, indeed, is the blessing of instruction, one finds a path that leads him straight onward."
सत्यं वद । धर्मं चर। स्वाध्यायान्मा प्रमदः। ……………. मातृदेवो भव। पितृदेवो भव। आचार्यदेवो भव ।
~ तैत्तिरीय उपनिषद् १.११.२
― " Speak the truth. Abide by your dharma. Never be idle in your studies. Let your father be to you like unto a God ! Let your Acharya be to you like unto a God ! "
{Note : ' Kalpa ' means the branch of Vaidik literature which deals with ceremonials and the celebration of religious sacrifices.
' Rahasyam ' : (lit. mysteries) is the transcendental truths inculcated in the Upanishads.
~ Kulluka Bhatt }
An Acharya is different from an Upadhyaya :
एकदेशं तु वेदस्य वेदाङ्गान्यपि वा पुनः ।
योऽध्यापयति वृत्त्यर्थमुपाध्यायः स उच्यते ॥
~ मनुस्मृति २.१४१
" A Brahmana, who, in consideration of fees, teaches a portion of the Vedas and any of the Vedangas to a pupil is said to be the Upadhyaya of the latter. "
The Vishnu dharma points out that a person may be a sinner of the worst kind or one may be the most meritorious but both of them would achieve moksha only through the guidance from Acharya.

GITA SUTRA

यः शास्त्रविधिमुत्सृज्य वर्तते कामकारतः।
न स सिद्धिमवाप्नोति न सुखं न परां गतिम्‌॥
भावार्थ : जो पुरुष शास्त्र विधि को त्यागकर अपनी इच्छा से मनमाना आचरण करता है, वह न सिद्धि को प्राप्त होता है, न परमगति को और न सुख को ही ।
" He who, setting aside the ordinance of the Shâstra, acts under the impulse of desire, attains not to perfection, nor happiness, nor the Goal Supreme. "
कर्म ब्रह्मोद्भवं विद्धि ब्रह्माक्षरसमुद्भवम्‌ ।
तस्मात्सर्वगतं ब्रह्म नित्यं यज्ञे प्रतिष्ठितम्‌ ॥
भावार्थ : कर्मसमुदाय को तू वेद से उत्पन्न और वेद को अविनाशी परमात्मा से उत्पन्न हुआ जान। इससे सिद्ध होता है कि सर्वव्यापी परम अक्षर परमात्मा सदा ही यज्ञ में प्रतिष्ठित है ।
" Know Karma to have risen from the Veda, and the Veda from the Imperishable. Therefore the all-pervading Veda is ever centred in Yajna. "
तस्माच्छास्त्रं प्रमाणं ते कार्याकार्यव्यवस्थितौ।
ज्ञात्वा शास्त्रविधानोक्तं कर्म कर्तुमिहार्हसि॥
भावार्थ : इससे तेरे लिए इस कर्तव्य और अकर्तव्य की व्यवस्था में शास्त्र ही प्रमाण है। ऐसा जानकर तू शास्त्र विधि से नियत कर्म ही करने योग्य है ।
" So let the Shâstra be thy authority in ascertaining what ought to be done and what ought not to be done. Having known what is said in the ordinance of the Shâstra, thou shouldst act here. "
नियतस्य तु सन्न्यासः कर्मणो नोपपद्यते ।
मोहात्तस्य परित्यागस्तामसः परिकीर्तितः ॥
भावार्थ : (निषिद्ध और काम्य कर्मों का तो स्वरूप से त्याग करना उचित ही है) परन्तु नियत कर्म का स्वरूप से त्याग करना उचित नहीं है। इसलिए मोह के कारण उसका त्याग कर देना तामस त्याग कहा गया है ।
" But the renunciation of Nitya Karma (obligatory actions) is not proper. Abandonment of the same from delusion is declared to be Tâmasika. "
श्रेयान्स्वधर्मो विगुणः परधर्मात्स्वनुष्ठितात्‌।
स्वभावनियतं कर्म कुर्वन्नाप्नोति किल्बिषम्‌॥
भावार्थ : अच्छी प्रकार आचरण किए हुए दूसरे के धर्म से गुणरहित भी अपना धर्म श्रेष्ठ है, क्योंकि स्वभाव से नियत किए हुए स्वधर्मरूप कर्म को करता हुआ मनुष्य पाप को नहीं प्राप्त होता ।
" Better is one's own Dharma, (though) imperfect, than the Dharma of another well-performed. He who does the duty ordained by (scriptures according to) his own nature incurs no evil. "
सहजं कर्म कौन्तेय सदोषमपि न त्यजेत्‌।
सर्वारम्भा हि दोषेण धूमेनाग्निरिवावृताः॥
भावार्थ : अतएव हे कुन्तीपुत्र ! दोषयुक्त होने पर भी सहज कर्म (प्रकृति के अनुसार शास्त्र विधि से नियत किए हुए वर्णाश्रम के धर्म और सामान्य धर्मरूप स्वाभाविक कर्म हैं उनको ही यहाँ स्वधर्म, सहज कर्म, स्वकर्म, नियत कर्म, स्वभावज कर्म, स्वभावनियत कर्म इत्यादि नामों से कहा है) को नहीं त्यागना चाहिए,क्योंकि धूएँ से अग्नि की भाँति सभी कर्म किसी-न-किसी दोष से युक्त हैं।
" One should not relinquish, O son of Kunti, the duty to which one is born, though it is attended with evil; for, all undertakings are enveloped by evil, as fire by smoke. "
स्वे स्वे कर्मण्यभिरतः संसिद्धिं लभते नरः।
स्वकर्मनिरतः सिद्धिं यथा विन्दति तच्छृणु॥
भावार्थ : अपने-अपने स्वाभाविक कर्मों में तत्परता से लगा हुआ मनुष्य भगवत्प्राप्ति रूप परमसिद्धि को प्राप्त हो जाता है। अपने स्वाभाविक कर्म में लगा हुआ मनुष्य जिस प्रकार से कर्म करके परमसिद्धि को प्राप्त होता है, उस विधि को तू सुन।
" Devoted each to his own duty, man attains the highest perfection. How engaged in his own duty, he attains perfection, that hear.

THE BHARAT SAVITRI -Realization of Vyas-Dwapayana Krishna(Not Lord Krishna)

THE BHARAT SAVITRI (भारत सावित्री) :
==== Realization of Bhagavan Krishna Dwaipayana Vyasa ====
Introduction :
[Extracted from Kisari Mohan Ganguli's translation of Mahabharat]
Sauti said:...The high race of the Bharatas is its topic. Hence it is called Bharata. And because of its grave import, as also of the Bharatas being its topic, it is called Mahabharata. He who is versed in interpretations of this great treatise, becomes cleansed of every sin. Such a man lives in righteousness (dharma), wealth (artha), and pleasure (kAma), and attains to Emancipation (moksha) also, O chief of Bharatas race.

That which occurs here occurs elsewhere. That which does not occur here occurs nowhere else. This history is known by the name of Jaya. It should be heard by every one desirous of Emancipation (moksha). It should be read by Brahmanas, by kings, and by women quick with children. He that desires Heaven attains to Heaven; and he that desires victory attains to victory. The woman quick with child gets either a son or a daughter highly blessed. The puissant Island-born Krishna (veda-vyAsa), who will not have to come back, and who is Emancipation incarnate, made an abstract of the Bharata, moved by the desire of aiding the cause of righteousness. He made another compilation consisting of sixty lakhs of verses. Thirty lakhs of these were placed in the region of the deities(deva loka). In the region of the Pitris fifteen lakhs, it should be known, are current; while in that of the Yakshas fourteen lakhs are in vogue. One lakh is current among human beings.
Narada recited the Mahabharata to the gods; Asita-Devala to the Pitris; Suka to the Rakshasas and the Yakshas; and Vaishampayana to human beings. This history is sacred, and of high import, and regarded as equal to the Vedas. That man, O Saunaka, who hears this history, placing a Brahmana before him, acquires both fame and the fruition of all his wishes. He who, with fervid devotion, listens to a recitation of the Mahabharata, attains (hereafter) to high success in consequence of the merit that becomes his through understanding even a very small portion thereof. All the sins of that man who recites or listens to this history with devotion are washed off.
In former times, the great Rishi Vyasa, having composed this treatise, caused his son Suka to read it with him, along with these four Verses (Bharata SavitrI).
__________________________________________
Vyasa, at the very end of Mahabharata conveys the essence of Mahabharata, in a set of verses that are known as Bharata Savitri. Just as Gayatri is the essence of the Vedas, Savitri is of the Mahabharata.
These 4 verses composed by Vyasa are found in the end of the epic Mahabarata as well as Harivamsam which is an annexure to the great epic Mahabharata. These are supposed to be the moral (essence) of the great epic Mahabharata. There is another version containing 100 stotras which are mainly a discussion between Lord Krishna and King Duryodhana. These 4 verses are also included in that collection.

भारत सावित्री :
(महाभारत, स्वर्गारोहणपर्व, अध्याय (खिला) ५, श्लोक ४७-५४)
मातापितृसहस्राणि पुत्रदारशतानि च |
संसारेष्वनुभूतानि यान्ति यास्यन्ति चापरे ||
" Thousands of mothers and fathers, and hundreds of sons and wives arise in the world and depart from it. Others will (arise and) similarly depart "
हर्षस्थानसहस्राणि भयस्थानशतानि च |
दिवसे दिवसे मूढमाविशन्ति न पण्डितम् ||
" There are thousands of occasions for joy and hundreds of occasions for fear. These affect only him that is ignorant but never him that is wise. "
ऊर्ध्वबाहुम्विरौम्येश न च कश्चित् शृणोति मे |
धर्मादर्थश्च कामश्च स धर्म किं न सेव्यते ||
" With uplifted arms I am crying aloud but nobody hears me. From Dharma is Artha as also Kaama. Why should not Dharma, therefore, be followed ? "
न जातु कामान् न भयान् न लोभात्ध र्मं त्यजेज्जीवितस्यापि हेतो: |
नित्यो धर्म: सुखदुखो त्वनित्ये जीवो नित्यो हेतुरस्य त्वनित्य: ||
" For the sake neither of pleasure, nor of fear, nor of cupidity should any one cast off Dharma. Indeed, for the sake of even life one should not cast off Dharma. Dharma is eternal. Pleasure and Pain are not eternal. Jiva is eternal. The cause, however, of Jiva’s being invested with a body is not so. "
फलश्रुति (Result of listening / reading) :
इमां भारत सावित्रीं परातर उत्थाय यः पठेत |
स भारत फलं पराप्य परं बरह्माधिगच्छति ||
" That man who, waking up at dawn, reads this Savitri of the Bharata, acquires all the rewards attached to a recitation of this history and ultimately attains to the highest Brahman. "
यथा समुद्रॊ भगवान यथा च हिमवान गिरिः |
खयाताव उभौ रत्ननिधी तथा भारतम उच्यते ||
" As the sacred Ocean, as the Himavat mountain, are both regarded as mines of precious gems, even so is this Bharata (regarded as a mine of precious gems). "
महाभारतम आख्यानं यः पठेत सुसमाहितः |
स गच्छेत परमां सिद्धिम इति मे नास्ति संशयः ||
" The man of learning, by reciting to others this Veda or Agama composed by (Dwaipayana) Krishna, earns wealth. There is no doubt in this that he who, with rapt attention, recites this history called Bharata, attains to high success. "
दवैपायनॊष्ठपुटनिःसृतम अप्रमेयं; पुण्यं पवित्रम अथ पापहरं शिवं च |
यॊ भारतं समधिगच्छति वाच्यमानं; किं तस्य पुष्करजलैर अभिषेचनेन ||
" What need has that man of a sprinkling of the waters of Pushkara who attentively listens to this Bharata, while it is recited to him ? It represents the nectar that fell from the lips of the Dwaipayana (island-born). It is immeasurable, sacred, sanctifying, sin-cleansing, and auspicious. "
जय श्री हरि !!

ऋता, सत्य एवं धर्म ,what is DHARMA. It is not religion.

ऋता, सत्य एवं धर्म :
  ऋता, सत्य, धर्म : अर्थ एवं तात्पर्य -
धर्म का परिभाषा क्या हैं ये लेकर विद्वज्जनों में भी मतभेद नजर आता हैं । धर्म शब्द " ध्रु " धातु से उत्पन्न होता हैं जिसका अर्थ हैं सम्भालना, धारण करना या पोषण करना । ऋषियों ने " धर्म " को " ऋता " एवं " सत्य " के साथ ही निकट अर्थ में उल्लेख किया हैं ।
श्री विद्यारण्य जी ने " ऋता " का संज्ञा निरूपण करते समय कहा हैं " अन्तर्दृष्टि " एवं " ईश्वर-दर्शन " । तैत्तिरीय उपनिषद् में भी " सत्य " एवं " धर्म " शब्द के साथ ही ऋता शब्द आता हैं । इसमें शिष्यों को सत्य कहने और धर्माचारण करने के लिए कहा जा रहा हैं । (" सत्यं वद, धर्मं चर ")
आचार्य श्री शंकर भागवतपाद जी के अनुसार " सत्य " का अर्थ हैं सत्य-कथन एवं " धर्म " का अर्थ हैं सत्य-कार्य अर्थात सत्य को कार्य में परिणत करना ।
" सत्यमिति यथाशास्त्रार्थत स एव अनुष्ठीयमानः धर्मनाम भवति "
________________________________________
अब इस विषय पर श्री के. वालसुब्रमनिय अय्यर जी का व्याख्या भी देखते हैं :
" ये तीन शब्दों (सत्य, ऋता एवं धर्म) की तात्पर्य विचार करने से ये स्पष्ट होता हैं की धर्म का मूल भित्ति ही एक व्यक्ति के जीवन का आदर्श हैं । " ऋता " शब्द से " अन्तर्दृष्टि " एवं सत्य का अनुभव, " सत्य " शब्द से मन में जिस प्रकार से उस सत्य का अनुभव हो रहा हैं उसको शब्दों में व्यक्त करना, और " धर्म " से जीवन में आचरण करते समय उस सत्य का पालन करना समझा जाता हैं । " धर्म " तो जीवनधारण करने का वो पद्धति हैं जिससे सत्य को कार्य में परिणत किया जाता हैं एक अन्तर्दृष्टिसम्पन्न मनुष्य के द्वारा, जिस सत्य का बोध उन्हें हुआ हैं एवं जैसे वो सत्य को प्रकाश करता हैं । संक्षेप में कहा जाए तो - " ऋता " = सत्य चिन्तन, " सत्य " = सत्य वचन, " धर्म " = सत्य को कार्य में परिणत करना । "
ज्ञानीयों के लिए " धर्म " एवं " सत्य " का एक ही अर्थ हैं एवं इसका उद्येश्य ये हैं --- उस सत्य की दिशा में आगे बढ़ना जो केवल स्वयं ही सत्य-स्वरुप हैं । उन लोगों के लिए सत्य को मन में, शब्दों में एवं कार्य में परिणत करने के अतिरिक्त और कोई उद्येश्य नहीं हैं ।

इसी लिए वेद वाणी हैं :
ऋतस्य पन्थां न तरन्ति दुष्कृतः।।
~ ऋग्वेद ९/७३/६
अर्थात् सत्य के मार्ग को दुष्कर्मी पार नहीं कर पाते।
जबकि~
सुगा ऋतस्य पन्थाः।।
~ ऋग्वेद ८/३१/१३
अर्थात् सत्य का मार्ग सुख से गमन करने योग्य है,सरल है।
क्योंकि~
सत्यस्य नावः सुकृतमपीपरन्।।
~ ऋग्वेद ९/७३/१
अर्थात् सत्य की नौका धर्मात्माओं को पार लगाया करती है।
ऋतावृधौ ऋतस्पशौ बृहन्तं क्रतुं ऋतेन आशाथे।।
~ सामवेद
अर्थात् सत्य को बढ़ाने वाले, सत्य को स्पर्श करने वाले, सत्य से ही महान् कार्य करते हैं
" किम् सत्यं ? " इस प्रश्न का उत्तर में आदिगुरू शंकराचार्य जी ने कहा " भुतहितं " । सत्य या सत्यनिष्ठा वो हैं जो समग्र भूतों की (सकल प्राणीयों की) मंगलसाधन के लिए कहा जाता हैं ।
" को धर्मः " ? इसका उत्तर आचार्य ने दिया " अभिमतो यः शिष्टानां निज-कुलीनानाम् "
इसका अर्थ ये हैं : " ज्ञानियों एवं निज परिवार के शिष्टाचारसम्पन्न गुरुजनों द्वारा जो निर्धारित होता हैं वो धर्म हैं । "
चार पुरुषार्थों में धर्म प्रथम, अर्थ द्वितीय, काम तृतीय एवं मोक्ष चतुर्थ हैं। इसका कारण ये हैं की मोक्ष मार्ग का योग्य अधिकारी अत्यन्त दुर्लभ हैं ।
व्यासदेव जी भारत-सावित्री में कहते हैं :
ऊर्ध्वबाहुम्विरौम्येश न च कश्चित् शृणोति मे |
धर्मादर्थश्च कामश्च स धर्म किं न सेव्यते ||
~ महाभारत, स्वर्गारोहणपर्व, अध्याय (खिला) ५, श्लोक ४९
" उर्ध्ववाहू होकर उच्च स्वर में मैं ये घोषणा करता हूँ किन्तु कोई सुनता नहीं --- धर्म से ही अर्थ एवं काम लाभ होता हैं, तो धर्म का अनुसरण क्यूँ नहीं किया जाये ? "
श्री आद्य शंकराचार्य जी देखते हैं ज्ञानी एवं पंडित व्यक्ति, यहाँ तक की अत्यन्त सूक्ष्मदृष्टीसम्पन्न आत्मदर्शी भी कदाचित् तमसाच्छन्न होकर ये समझ नहीं पाता, यद्यपि बिबिध शास्त्रों में स्पष्ट रूप से ये वर्णित हैं ।
सत्य का प्रत्यक्ष अनुभूति केवल उनको ही होता हैं जिसका मन में श्रद्धा हैं :
शास्त्रस्य गुरुवाक्यस्य सत्यबुद्ध्यवधारणम् ।
सा श्रद्धा कथिता सद्भिर्यया वस्तूपलभ्यते ॥
~ विवेकचूड़ामणि, २५
" गुरुवाक्य एवं वेदान्तवाक्य को यथार्त सत्य मानकर दृढ़ता के साथ अन्तर में धारण करना ही ज्ञानियों ने श्रद्धा कहा हैं । इस श्रद्धा आत्मस्वरुप उपलब्धि करने का सहाय हैं । "
शास्त्रानुसार विचार करके एवं गुरु द्वारा प्रदर्शित मार्ग पर चलकर अविद्या की वन्धन से मुक्ति मिलती हैं एवं आत्मज्ञान लाभ होता हैं और ये शास्त्रों द्वारा भी समर्थित हैं ।
अथवा शास्त्रोक्त विधि से मन को नियन्त्रणपूर्वक एकमुखी करके निरन्तर सत्य का ध्यान करते समय जो अनुभूति होता हैं वो भी उस सद्वस्तु को लाभ करने का एक उपाय हैं ।
धन्य हैं वो क्षण जब नित्य-शुद्ध-बुद्ध-मुक्त आनन्दमय आत्मा का अनुभूति होता हैं । इसी लिए धर्म अर्थात " वेदोक्त सनातन धर्म " अनुसरण करना मनुष्यजन्म को सार्थक बनाने के लिए सर्वकाल में प्रसिद्द हैं ।
धर्म ही हमारा एकमात्र रक्षक हैं ।
|| ॐ शान्ति शान्ति शान्ति ||

Aura,chi,prana- An energy all living and nonliving has.

The earth’s natural electromagnetic field has a frequency measured as about 7.8 HZ or Hertz. There is much concern now among scientists about the damage caused by civilization’s pollution of the earth. There is also monitoring of the normally occurring changes in the universe.
When people meditate and calm their brain chatter, their brains emit alpha frequencies of 7 to 9 Hz. The human brain in a relaxed state then has the same frequency of vibration as the energy field of the earth. When humans live close to nature, their energy fields are in synchrony with the energy field of the earth, so they experience more balance and better health.
In Sanskrit language the root ‘Ar’ means “spoke of a wheel” indicating that the aura radiates from the body as the spokes of a wheel radiate from its hub. In the present century most of us are familiar with Aura or bio energy. This is being taught as bio technology, bio chemistry in the Universities dealing with human cell energy. Aura is nothing but light energy, emitting from animate and inanimate objects. The aura has come to lime light after the discovery of Simon Kirlian photography (1939), but this is known to our ancients since vedic time. In Atharva veda we see it as halloes around the heads of all Gods. This is referred as Divya kanti valaya or circular Divine light, which is nothing but Aura. Our great Vysa Maharshi, termed energies related to Jada shakti which means matter possess energy and he called life energy as Chi-Shakti (Chi=Prana) and Light Energy as parama- jyoti, in his version Lalita sahasranama. Latter our famous scientist sir Einstein has also used the same words in his famous formula E=mc2 where “E” stands for Energy, “m” stands for matter, and “c” stands for velocity of light. This work has reappeared to us after 5000 years.

We are being taught this modern science, forgetting our own ancient rich culture and heritage. As per our modern scientists the human beings are analyzed as a Bio Electro magnetic body, where as per Vedic science Human represented as matter plus being stands for pranic energy. When prana goes away leaving the body then, the matter only remains in form ashes. Secondly our scientists termed the ‘Earth’ as a huge magnetic body having North Pole and South Pole at its ends. It is surrounded by a network of electrical grids carrying electrical energy and it can also be called Electro Magnetic body. Thirdly the Sun energy reaches as heat and Light energy is also called Electro Magnetic waves.
One can use among many centres in India to click themselves for an Aura Photograph to forecast his/her health status.
In the documentary The Beautiful Truth, which was released in 2008, a team of scientists used Kirlian photography to analyze various foods. They found that organic foods emitted a clearly more vibrant and harmonious energy field than conventional foods. Raw foods also fared better in the energy department than cooked and pasteurized foods, the latter of which appeared duller and less uniform than their raw counterparts.
If this energy field is truly indicative of a food’s “life source,” then it appears as though whole, clean foods eaten as close as possible to the way nature intended are more life-giving than over-processed, pesticide-ridden foods. It also means that simply counting calories and looking at ingredient content are not enough to determine the true nutritional capacity of food.
Dr. Gabriel Cousens suggests that foods’ “Subtle Organizing Energy Fields” transfer to our physical bodies when we eat them. Coronas or fields with vibrant, balanced patterns are said to have the best effects on our physical, emotional, mental or spiritual being.
