Philosophy and Practical

You do anything and it will become frustrating one day. I tried it. Enlightenment is the only thing which will never become frustrating or boring. Because, at the time of enlightenment "I" doesn't exist. Remember one thing- Either you exist or Truth exists. Both cannot exist together. No possibility. At a time only one will exist. Either you or truth. And mostly you exist. Because, truth is so subtle that even the slightest perturbation can wrap the truth. Can hide the truth. That's why society could alter the truth. You never know whose fault it is - it's a truth's fault or it's society's fault. Sometimes, in spite of so much knowledge and understanding about life you still don't know what's happening. I have become bored of knowing the things. Society taught us that the more you know the better you are. According to me the less you know the better you will be which society won't like. Some of the professors didn't like me for the reason I refused to know more. But when I was knowing more, topped in the school they liked me. But their liking was conditional. Anything conditional is ephemeral. Because, that condition can vanish one day.
Coming to practical...
The one very fundamental thing I wanted to state out here is - see, if you understand then you don't have to do anything. You are done. You don't have to do Pranayaam and meditation provided you understand. This called Gyan Yoga. No need to meditate on the Agya Chakra if you understood. And it's so easy to understand that you can't understand. Because, society has always prepared you to understand difficult subject. So, our ability to understand easy thing is lost. Look at the Ramanna Maharshi. He was not a Yogi but still his knowledge was of very high order. However, it's always recommended to meditate and pranayaam. There is no harm in that.
In Hinduism they talk about 7 chakra energy centers. Muladhar, Swadhisthan, Manipur, Anahaat, Vishuddha, Agya and Sahasrar. Eeach center has it's attributes. Meditation on these centers are very helpful. It's said if your Sahasrar is open then you are almost God. These centers are described in the ancient Yoga scriptures. However, as I said - you may not have to know all these once you understand the core of the existence. Because, these are just expansion of the existence. Existence is root. Rest are just details. So, I don't give much stress on Chakra meditation rather I have stresss on the existence. Know the root of the roots. Rest will all follow...

The first and the last

For anything first and last is kind of special. Particularly special. Lets understand this in terms of life. Birth is the first thing of the life - the very first breath. Which you don't remember. Death is the last thing of the life - the last breath. Which hasn't come. Life exists between these two breath. Indian yogic system gives too much stress on breath. Even in Buddhism breath is immensely important. In Christianity it's not that important. Because Christianity is primarily based on the prayers. On the pope. On the priest. On the father. Father will pray for you, then only you can go to kingdom of God. But, essentially this is not the case in Hinduism. That's why Hinduism has produced great meditators. Hinduism give you more freedom. But some people do not like it. There are reason behind this. A temple priest wont like to see you meditating. Ask why? Because, when you meditate you are trying to connect yourself with infinite. You are trying to contact God directly. You are bypassing the channels made by others. Made by priest, Pope, Muhammad. So, these people get frightened with that. Your meditation questions on their existence. Because, in meditation what you are doing is, you are simply bypassing them. And they don't like it. They want you to follow their paths, their rules. So that, their paths and rules remain always active. And this is what happened in the almost every religion excluding some sects of Hinduism.

Birth is important. Someone taking birth at midnight, and someone taking at midday will make a difference. Best time to take a birth should be in the morning around 8-9-10 am. That time nature is charge with freshly awaken people. Everybody is fresh, enthusiastic about the day. Everybody is optimistic. So all these positive environment will affect the kid positively. And the reverse is true in the night. There are many other factors as well. An astrologer would know it better. Lol. Few moments before the death is also special. Person's behaviour is unpredictable. Unpredictable in the sense that he is just about to die. He feels rejuvenated just before death. Death of enlightened person will be even more special. Yoga students in hiamalayan region are taught to watch the death of yogis. You will find them totally abnormal just before death. Because his life force is at the peak. In just a few minute it will be mearged into infinite. His entire life force gears up to take the final flight. It's like just few seconds before an air plane takes off. There are various ways Pran can exit out of the body. Yogi's Pran will exit out of crown of the head. Also called Sahasrar. And it is said, if it exits from the crown of the head. You are done!! Your rebirth won't happen again. You are freed, liberated. Else you will again take birth. And again life will start...you will again learn A B C D...Lol :)
