Yoga, the Science of the Superconscient Mind

Psychology deals with the Subconscious and Psycho Analysis with the Unconscious.

Yoga, on the other hand, deals with the Superconscious or the Superconscient.

EEG signals measured shows that Meditation generates a Fourth State of Consciousness, characterised by Alpha waves.

High beta waves (above 25 MHz ) characterise the Waking State or Jagrat

Alpha waves characterise Meditation is in between 7.8 and 14 MHz.

Theta waves characterise Dreaming State or Swapna ( 3.2 to 7.28 MHz).

Delta waves chacterise Deep Sleep or Sushupti (.1 to 3.2 )

Hence it is possible to commune with the Superconscious Mind and Yoga is the Art of Cosmic Union

The Universal Will will not lead you where the Universal Grace cannot keep you!

This is a Law " The Divine Will will never lead you, where His Grace cannot keep you"

When I returned from the Gulf, I had no problem in starting Zodiac Computers way back in 1988. I had always felt the hand of the Supreme. His Grace has protected me throughout.

The hand of the Divine guided me to Philosophy and Astrology. When I was in crisis, I always felt His hand guiding me and protecting me. I did not have any major problem whatsover. Minor problems I had, but then they were all solved by Grace Divine !

Therapeutic Yoga

Yoga maintains that diseases are caused by mental tensions or Adhis.

We have five levels of Being - the Material, the Mental, the Vital, the Intellectual and the Spiritual .

The Fivefold Sheaths that encase the Absolute Self is known as Pancha Koshas. The positive energy from the Blissful Sheath is hindered by mental tensions or Adhis. Because of this block, healing does not take place all of a sudden.

By practising Meditation, one can get rid of Stress and mental tension. Only after removing all Adhis will true healing take place

Union via Wisdom

Union via Wisdom is very difficult. The whole Universe is mirrored in Becoming, in the Universal Mind. The real "I" is the Absolute SELF, who is the witness to all the three relative states. Union with this Self, while we are indulging in mundane activities, is not easy. The waking appears like the dreaming state.

That is why Union via Love is preferred to other systems of Yoga. The way of Love unites one with the Beloved. If we love all in the Universe, then via that Love, we can achieve the Ultimate Union

Gayathri Mantra Meditation

I am meditating on the Gayathri Mantra, the greatest amonst the mantras. Gayantham thrayate iti gayathri is the defintion. Which means that it is the mantra which protects the chanter.

It has protected me throughout and has given insight into Vedantic and Jyothish mysteries

Of Divine Grace

The Divine operates by remote control
Showing in the mind of the devotee
Whom He wants to redeem and save
The solution to the problem


Time Eternal does not cut off
Any person's head !
Whom He wants to destroy
Shows the wrong things in his mind !

Bridal Mysticism is Ecstacy personified !

Amongst the Yogas Four, Bhakthi Yoga is extolled. This is because Absolute Self as Love is more endearing than Absolute Self as Wisdom or Action or Psychic Control.

The veil between the Ego and the Self, the Mind or Maya or the Mirror suddenly ceases to be, revealing the face of the Beloved.

What bliss can equal the Bliss that is coming from Thee !

The Dark Night of the Spirit

The Dark Night of the Soul is accompanied by the gretest test - the Dark Night of the Spirit!

This is the most difficult test. The story of Jesus is an alchemical allegory, describing the mystical experiences of the alchemist-initiate.

The initiate feels cut off from all help, even from one's source of Being ! Beautiful is the face of the Mother Divine, but She too can be hard and terrible !

He feels cut off from all inspiration and intuitions ! He is alone on the Cross and this is the state of Crucifixon !

Bliss and pain alternate in this state of Crucifixon.

Jesus cried out " My Power, my Power, why hast Thou forsaken me ? " in his pain. Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani ! At the same time he acquiesced in the Universal Will and said " Father, unto Thy hand I command my spirit "

All emotions and Mind are totally on fire, during this state of combustion. One has to overcome this period by self-reliance and self-faith !

This state of Combustion is caused the Divine Fire, by the fiery serpent which ascends. All our mortal dross are burnt away by this all consuming Fire. The last remnants of the Ego and identification with the lower self falls away and he comes to know that separation is only an Illusion !

May you achieve Enlightenment by His Grace !

The Dark Night of the Soul !

When a mystic goes nearer the Divine, he experiences ' The Dark Night of the Soul '

He has had his experiences of Bliss. But the Path of Return or the Solar Path ( yoga ) is also not a bed of roses. He who dare not hold the thorns, need not crave for the rose ! So there will be many trials ans tribulations !

Which are indeed naught else

But the protractive trials of high Jove

To find persistent constancy in men !

Rebounding Karma catches his unawares. But he has to understand that they are Wages ( of sin ) and that Initiation is a process of intensive culture and acceleration. Janmantara Kritham Papam Vyadhi Roopena Jayathe.

No growth is possible without resistance to draw out latent power. Gold has to be burnt for perfection. The wise recognise negativity as the inevitable clearing process and maintain equanimity.

The best way during this period is to chant the names of the Lord. One should know that the Lord is with the initiate eternally. Anu vrajami Aham Nityam " Fear thou not, I am with thee" !

For Love to triumph, war is inevitable !

You have heard of the adage "Out of evil cometh good."

If then His Providence

Out of evil seeks to bring forth good

Our aim must be to pervert that end

And out of good still to find means of evil ! ( Satan in Paradise Lost )

First there will be a clash. There will be quarrels galore. There will be ego clashes. Then both parties will realise that Love is better. So for Love to triumph, war is inevitable !

War is a biolgical necessity, an outlet for the human desire to compete and excel. Since the Ego function is dominant in man, war becomes so to say a necessity.

The Ego is the imperfect term in Man and Self is the perfect term. The Ego is the lower imperfect term of our Being. Self is the higher, perfect term.

The Law of Vishnu ( Love ) cannot prevail, unless debts to Rudra ( War ) are paid !

Ode to the Kundalini

Thou art the Kundalini
The Macrocosmic Shakti divine
Thou liest serpentine at the Chakra Base
Representative of the mighty Conscious Force !

Success in both spheres is given by Thee
Both the material & spiritual realms
With Thy Grace, wealth & all paraphernalia
Friends, relatives & praises galore
Subordinates, vehicles, power, influence
Men attain; such is Thy Grace's might !

In the other realm spiritual
Thou makest the aspirant pious
Endowing him with knowledge divine
Making him do virtous deeds
So that he becomes eligible for Heaven

Both material & spiritual success
Are effectuated by Thy Grace Supernal !

Ode to the Cosmic Man ( contd ), Love is Greater !

Rugged indeed is the path
To the Unmanifest Absolute !
The "wise misers" attain Thee
With troubles & difficulties galore !

Far, far away is Action Path's result
But different indeed is the Path of Love
That noblest and blest path divine
Let all my veins and all my being
Incorporate that mighty Love Divine
So that I can merge with Thee entire !
Let me desire nothing from Thee
Let me desire only Thee !

Glorious is Thy Personal Form !

Unmanifest is Thy Absolute Reality
And difficult to actualise
Of the nature of pure Sathwa
And of the nature of Immortal Bliss
But more glorious is Thy Personal Form
Which captivates all human minds
Thou revealed to me in that Form
I do not want dry Philosophy
But rather sweet, sweet Love
I desire nothing from Thee
I desire only Thee !

" Love is All Conquering " declared Thee

In the philosophy Sankhya divine
Twenty four principles are the codes
Of the basic structure of all that is

Nature, Ego, Heart, Universal Mind,
The Great Elements Five
Their Subtle Essences Five
The knowing sense organs five
The acting sense organs five
And Purusha, the Absolute, is Twenty Fifth !
Nature liberates those who know this secret
Thou as the exponent of Sankhya, Kapila advised

To conquer everything, use the power of Love
Was Thy message to thy mother, Devahoothi

Ode to the Cosmic Man ( contd )

Thou manifested first as the Sound Primal

And then all the Great Elements Five

Evolved from Thee !

From Sound Primal, Ether,

Then Air, Fire, Water, Earth

Evolved from Thee; prior to Creation, Thou alone

Existed as Existence - Consciousness-Beatitude

Thou Art The Self, Witness Consciousness !

Thou, who witnesseth the The Three Relative States
Art called by the Wise as the Conscious Witness
Thy holographic projections Three
Relative Ego, Relative Universe & Supreme
Are only relatively real when compared
To Thy Absolute State ! All thy projections,
All the attributes of Nature triune
All dissolved in Thee during Involution
Thou alone existed then as Supreme Consciousness Bliss !

Thy Glorious Path of Love !

All sensory enjoyments are transient and fleeting
Think of the loss of Ayus ( longevity ) !

There was once a king, Purooravas called,
Who fell in love with the beauteous Urvashi
Urvashi told him we women are selfish
To us end always justifies the means !
We even kill our brethren or paramour
Never ever befriend us at all
Ignoring her advice the King went on
Living with her and enjoying Life
Years passed by; and one day the Vox Dei
Conscience dominated the king's mind

" What a fool I was", he lamented
To have sunk myself in pleasures sensory
I did not know the loss of Ayus
Of time elapsed; if Self Actualisation be
The Goal of life, why didnt I strive
For that goal, why ever didnt I
Yearn for the Supreme' Grace, without which
None had ever attained to Salvation !
Forgive O Lord and take me into Thy fold"

He sought the company of the Wise
And learnt the glory of Wisdom and of Love
The Self's dominant qualities; from Masters
He knew that life is but a dream
A dream housed in the Universal Mind !

He attained Thy Glorious Path
Of Love Primal and actualised
Immortality or everlasting fame !
Make me O Lord, such a devotee !

The Divine, the Principle of the Highest First !

To the miser, wealth
To the youth, his lady love
To the King, kingdom
The Scientific Mystery of the scholar
The literary poems of the gentle hearted
The Nihil of the nihilst
The Heaven of the religionist
The Cosmic Consciousness of the Seer
That Highest First is He !

In the chariot called the human body
With horses as the sense organs
And mind the reins
With the charioteer Intellect
The Self controls all !

In the inner war with elements negative
Lust, greed, anger, jealousy, gluttony,
His Grace makes us triumphant finally
Such is the All Merciful, the All Compassionate !

The Universe as a Drama staged by Time Eternal

The great poet Melpathur ( 1559 - 1632 ) likened this Universe to a Kathakali Drama



This Universe is a big Drama
With Night as the Curtain
The Lamp is the resplendent Sun,
The mighty constellations sidereal
Witnesses of this drama divine !

The drums are Karma
Tendencies (Vasanas ) the songs
With these instruments
The Lord plays with Himself !

The Lord has to play with Himself, since He is defined as One without a second. If there is a second Infinite, will it not make the first Infinite finite ? So He is rightly defined as One without a second ( Ekam Eva Adviteeyam ).

Himself the play, Himself the player, Himself the playground !

" We may regard it and realise it as Leela ( play ), with things perpetually young, eternally inexhaustible, creating and recreating Himself in Himself for the sheer Bliss of the self creation, Himself the play, Himself the player, Himself the playground " ( Aurobindo )

Ya krutva vishwarangam
Rajani yavanikam
Projvalal Bhanu deepam
Shasval santhushta sat prekshaka akhila jagath
Branti Natyam Vithanya
Karmagauschanda Margangika laya vasagan
vasana ganasakthan
Jeeva Chathran Mukunda Svayamabhi ramathe
Kreedayam swosthu bhoothyai

Thy True Form is as Time Eternal, the Zodiac !

The great poet Melpathur was not only a scholar and philosopher, he was also an astrologer.

Einstein's greatest discovery was that he found Time as the Fourth Dimesion. Minnowski's concept of a four dimensional Space Time Continuum ( with the three dimensions of space and the fourth dimension of time ) came close to the Indian concept of Kalapurusha, the Zodiacal Man or Time Eternal, the Absolute Self as Time Eternal !

Aries is His Head and Pisces His feet ! It is He who lies as the grand Zodiac , that 360 degrees Circle in the Heavens !


Almost indefinable, with Poles Twelve ( the twelve zodiacal signs )
With 360 different spikes ( 360 degrees which comprise the Circle )
Whose movement is fast and cruel

To make all beings reap the seeds sown ( reaping and sowing Karma )
That mighty all devouring, all consuming Time

Time Eternal or Zodiacal Man
Is Thy true form,

Blessed be Thine all devouring Form !

Durvaram Dwadasaram Thrishathaparimilal shashti parvabhiveetham

Sambramyal Kroora vegam Kshanamanu jagataschidya sandhyavamanam

Chakram the Kalaroopam vyathayathu mam thval padaikavalambam

Vishno ! Karunyasindho ! Pavanapurapathe Pahimam sarva rogal !

The New Yoga - "Who Am I "

Ramana Maharshi was a great intellectual giant, who encouraged Self-enquiry or "Who am I " ?

When a thought arises, ask to whom doth this thought occur . You will come to know it is occurring to "I". Go deep and ask " Who is this I ?".

We have had many experiences. Most of them torrid. In Meditation, just go and ask " Who is the experiencer ?". It will all come back to "I"

" The true Self-enquiry is Bhakthi " said Sankara ( Swaswaroopasya Anusandhanam Bhakthirithi Abhidheeyate ).

He spake " In the Infinite Sky of Consciousness, the Sun of Self-Realisation shines bright and brilliant. Disperse the cloud of Ego obstructing the moonlight of Consciousness and the bud of Truth begins to blossom. It is the Peaceful Whole.

The Absolute Brahman becomes so to say the Cosmic Mind and spreads the world. As it thinks, so it becomes. It is the Lord of Creation. There is no other. Dissolve the mind by thinking about its dual nature. The mind gains peace by meditating on the Ultimate Reality."
