DHYAN


Has any one seen GOD ?

Yes or No ?

We all know it is not so easy to see GOD. We know how young Vivekananda encountered with HIS MASTER to show him GOD. Vivekananda became Swami Vivekananda had made India proud by his flow of wisdom.

Yes, It is just not possible to see GOD in ones life. But Yes you can experience the GOD.

There are ways to master this art to experience the GOD.

First you have to seek MOKSHA. I don’t mean you accept the DEATH. It is shedding all your desires right now. Zeroing the desire and then reaching a state of total ZERO desires is a state of MOKSHA. In sanskrit words “Moha kshaya iti mokshaha”

The most important and precious desire we all have is our LIFE. If we leave the desire to LIFE and surrender it to the Supreme then one becomes total purified.

Once we get this purity of mind and purity of thought, we need to focus on purity of action. That is knowing well that you can’t get GOD in this life, you still try to see him by everyday efforts. I call it DHYANA. Pure action for none, other than the SUPREME.

As we proceed in this DHYANA, we start experiencing the light of SUPREME in us. It is actually the GLOW of GOD.

Dhyana is concentrating on the form of the diety of the mantra (Kularnavatantra,chapter 17)

Dhyana is to hold the form of the deity in the conciousness without interruption (Prapanchasaratantra)

Dhyana is of two type (1) Saguna Dhyana, meditation on God with form and attributes, and Nirguna Dhyana, meditation on God without form and attributes.
Doing breath suspension and meditation on the diety is saguna dhyana and mediation on the supreme being without form is nirguna dhyana. Nirguna Dhyana leads to Samadhi.

When concentration reaches the non dual conciousness (seeing supreme being in each and every particle) that is dhyana.

Concentration on the universal form of God, realized by concentration on mantra, and blissful in the HRIT centre (Spiritual Heart) (Katvalyopanishad 5)

Eyes cannot see the supreme being nor can words express it – nor can it be reached by other senses and cognitive faculties. The supreme being is only revealed in dhyana. Dhyana (true meditation is only possible when consciousness is spiritualised by purity of knowledge of the self. (Mundakopanishad 8.1.8)
