One mystic Poet prayed May Thy Lotus Feet Stay forever in my mind May my sorrow be destroyed by Thee And may Kaivalya Lakshmi take over ! What is this Kaivalya Lakshmi ? Prosperity No 9? http://www.eastrovedica.com/html/eightfoldprosperity.asp Aishwarya has been defined, As Eeshwareeya Bhava, Bliss Absolute. Not mere wealth, but Fortune, Which maketh all the difference. The First  Prosperity,Adi Lakshmi, Is Her Original State as Power, Power Aspect of  Consciousness, Capable of  conferring Power. . Wisdom has been defined, As veiled Wealth and so Wisdom is Prosperity. This is the second Prosperity, Vidya Lakshmi, Capable of  conferring Wisdom. The Third Lakshmi, Gaja, Represents the Power of Royalty. She can bless Her devotees with boons, Capable of  conferring Royal Power. The Fourth Lakshmi, Santhana, Is vital to worldly life. Without children, none is fortunate, Aspect capable of  conferring Santhana.. The Fifth Lakshmi, Dhana, Is god of

He manifested as d iff erent Sastra Teachers, To teach a benighted humanity about Sciences Intuitive. Study of the Sastras, Sound Symbols of the Absolute, Can pave the way for Transformation or Transfiguration "Live according to the Sastras, tasmat sastram pramanam te, He who contravenes its commands, gaineth not Earth or Heaven ". Wisdom is His Quality, Wisdom supreme is He, And it is His Dharma to protect and preserve Wisdom Divine". In Thy Manifestation as Bhagavan Gautama, Thou imparted the Wisdom of Nyaya Sastra. Nyaya was founded initially to defend Vedic concepts, And to promote the Science of Thought's regulative principles ! In Thy Incarnation as Bhagavan Yaska, Thou imparted the Wisdom of Nirukta Sastra. Definions are badly needed in debate, And the Indefinable Thou providest all definitions. In Thy Manifestation as Bhagavan Varaha, Thou imparted the Wisdom of Jyotis Sastra. Thou preserved Astronomy, Maths and Astrology, Thri Sk

One person asked an Eternian, "Why do you worship many Gods?" Pat came the bewildering answer, " I worship One, which manifests as Many". I am a husband, brother, son, Uncle, teacher and social worker. I have many aspects, So too, the Divine has many aspects ! For sheer Delight of Being, Rasa, The Pure Existent multiplied Itself. And became billions of forms, So that it could actualise itself multitudinously. The 33 Deities of the Eternal Law, Are 33 esoteric principles. Twelve Suns, Rudras Eleven, Eight Vasus and two Physicians ! http://www.eastrovedica.com/html/thirtythreedeities.htm In Thy Aspect as Time, Thou Art known as Kalapurusha ! Time is not only the Destroyer, the All Devourer, But also the Great Healer, Creator & Preserver ! In Thy Aspect as Space, Thou Art known as Vishwapurusha ! The Fourteen Universes Parallel are Thy Body, With the Empyrean, Satya Loka, as Thy Head ! In Thy Aspect as Wisdom, Thou Art known a

In his " Apologia For Poetry ", the noble Sir Philip Sydney, Defended Poetry against the attack of a critic, Glosson. Glosson said that Poets are incorrigible liars and pied pipers, Which Sydney countered saying they were Vates, Diviners ! Averred Sydney " It pleased the Heavenly Deity, through Homer et al, To bequeath to us all Knowledge - logic, rhetoric, philosophy, natural and moral. These sciences are called by Indians as Sastras, Logic is Nyaya Sastra and Natural Philosophy, Sankhya Sastra. Eighteen such Sastras grace Indian Philosophy, Indian  Philosophy is a humiliating term given, To the eighteen methods of gaining Knowledge, Science of the Absolute and Affiliated Sciences may be a better term. He who has undergone Divine Transmutation, And who can transmute others, is Bhagavan ! In Bhakti Yogic terms, they are all Incarnations, Either Partial or Full, Amsa or Poorna Avatars! (  Bhavam Nihatya Yogam Dadati iti Bhagah  ) In Thy Manifes

Western Poets invoke Muses, ( "Sing, Heavenly Muse, how on the top" ), Indian Poets invoke Deity of Poetry, ( " Dance on my tongue, O Saraswathi ")                                            Such Yogic methods are mandatory, For the poetic process to blossom ! This request sent to Poetry Personified, Sees Inspiration invade his being. Hippocrene, the Fountain of Poesy, floweth, Out of him, bewildering all ! ( Padmapeedathil Irikkum Devee   Pattada Bhangi Charthum Devee   Nityamai ennude Navinmel   Nrithamadanam Saraswatee  ) Poetry is the generatrix of Music, Lyrics is nothing but Lyric Poetry. Even though Music differs from Poetry, Poetry is present in Music as Lyrics.  Overmind has been defined, As an Ocean of  Stable Lightnings. With its brilliant, golden lid, It hides the Truth Supramental. Higher than the Intuitive Mind, Higher than the Higher Mind, Higher than the Illumined Mind, Lies the Overmind, Vijnanam Brahma ! Ove

Origin of  Poetry Pegasus, the winged horse of Grecian Mythology, Tapped Mount Helicon with his hoof, And from that exact spot arose, The Fountain of Poesy, the Hippocrene ! Shelley opined that Francis Bacon, The Father of English Prose, Was a Poet inimitable, Because his prose appeared to be poetic ! Poetry evolved from Sorrow From Shoka arose Shloka. The First Poet was pained, When a bird was struck by an arrow. Never Kill, Ma Nishada,he cried out, For, it is against Law of Conscience. In the Orient, he is the First Poet, And his poem, Ramayana, First Poem. Milton was blind and suffered a lot, Out of his sufferings, came the Paradise Lost. Dante was a mendicant, with a love tragedy, And out of his strife, came the Divine Comedy. Poontanam's son died early, Out of his sorrow came the Njanapana. Melpathur was afflicted by Arthritis, Out of his frustrations, arose the Narayaneeyam. That is why Adversity has been defined as divine, And Melanchol

What is the Secret of  Poetry? Let us start from basics. Why is Kavya Sastra, the Science of  Poetry, Considered as the greatest Science? Beauty walking celestial is Poetry, Wisdom's Center and Circumference, Cent percent divine and Great Healer, And foreseer of Scientific Knowledge. My friend once mentioned Poets had some great experience. They had transcendental experience, When Mind hit the Quantum Ground State. Quantum Ground State has beendefined, As the Field of All  Possibilities. As the State of Least Excitation of Consciousness, And it can transmute men into poets and philosophers ! Aurobindo experienced three of the Four, Faculties of the Intuitive Reason, Revealation, Inspiration and Intuition, Known to Rishies as Ila, Saraswati and Sarama, Ila is Revealation, Saraswati is Inspiration, Sarama is Intuition, All of them belong  to Psychic Research, Kalidasa's experience of Transcendence, Was symbolically depicted as a meeting,

Einstein called Universe Finite Unbounded ! Universe, in its aspects, as structure or as Energy, Appears as an indeterminate determination, Implying a Supra Rational Mystery at the base. Beholding the Universe , Sankara exclaimed, "Wonder of Wonders and indefinable". As Supra Cosmic Transcendence is suprarational, So too Mystery of Universe must ultimately be so ! A boundless finite, said one psychic scientist, At the end of his research   on Consciousness. Paradoxical, but necessary expressions which tell, That we are dealing with a Suprarational Mystery. Man possesses two types of MIND, Rational Mind and Mind Intuitive. Science and Technology belong to Mind Rational, Poetry and Philosophy, to Intuitive Mind. Behind  phenomenal world is Reality Transcendent, Which Intuition alone can see. Absolute Intuition is clearly the way out, Not Antinomic Reason. Intuition is defined as the Eye Of Wisdom, When Reason plays, Intuition is silent. Intuitio

Forgive my three mistakes, cried the Seer-Poet Vyasa, First, I defined the Indefinable Thee ! Second, I attributed Form to the Formless Thee, And I limited the Illimitable Thee within a Temple. Great minds think alike and Melpathur did the same. " In my Ignorance, I described the Indescribable !" The Soul identifying with the body is Ignorance, Avidya, And Soul identifying with the Self is Wisdom,Vidya. The Constellations are Thy Teeth, Tharaganascha Radana, They keep the same distance from one another, Never coming closer to one another, nor moving furthur asunder, Showing Thy mathematical precision, O Great Geometer ! From the  Moon, I will learn about Brahman, Like the Fifteen Lunations, the Becomings of the Moon, Affecteth not the Moon,in her pristine state, So also Thy Becomings, affect Thee not, as Pure Being. From the Sun, I will learn about Thee Thy Representative and only visible Deity Myriads of ponds show his many reflections, But he rem

In the Beginning, there was One Existence, The Absolute, the Perfect, the Alone  In the Middle,there are many existences, The Relative, the Imperfect, the Multitude. In the End, there will be the Pure Existent, The Absolute, the Perfect, the Alone. For, Purusha is Self-contained Existence, And an Absolute, which embraces Relativity ! Cause, Effect, Causality are all He, Absolute Brahman alone exists in se. Whom even Fourfold Veds cannot define, As He transcends spatio-temporal language. When we say, First,the Being and then the Becoming, Fall we into illusion of  language spatio-temporal ! Everlasting is phenomenon of the Universe, As everlasting as the Silence beyond Time. If Matter can neither be created nor destroyed,.  If Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, Then Self also cannot be either created or destroyed As these three fall under the divisions of Being. If the Law of Conservation of Reality be true, That Matter, Energy, Self et al are

Bhartri Hari was controversial, He who said everything is Economics, And that Fortune is greatest, Ultimately said Kaivalya is the Goal ! At bottom of Need Hierarchy Scale, We have the basic physiological needs, For which wealth is important, Hence he extolled the virtues of Wealth. He who has wealth  is aristocratic, He is the scholar, full of virtue. He is the silver tongued orator, As all virtues are based on Wealth. ( Yaasyasthi Vitham sa nara kuleena Sa Panditha sa Sruthavan gunajna. Sa eva Vaktha, sa cha Darshaneeya, Sarve Gunan Kanchanam asrayanti. ). But Fortune is an invisible Goddess, Which no Wealth can  court ! Confluence of Health, Wealth and Wisdom, Is defined as Fortune. He who has Fortune is aristocratic, He is the scholar, full of virtue. He is the silver tongued orator, All virtues are based on Fortune. Despite being graced by Lakshmi, One felt that mental peace is lacking. So he consulted Yoga and She told him "There is no

Any number into Infinity is Infinity, Any number into Zero is Zero Then what is Zero into Infinity? Mathematically, an Indeterminate. Brahman has been defined as Infinity (Anantam Brahma ) And also as Zero ( Shoonyam ennum chilar ) So, what is He really? Philosophically, an Indeterminate. Ganitha Sastra is the Science of magnitude, The Science of the more or less, The Science of quantities, But, is the Science of the Infinite ! Universe has neither Center nor Circumference. It would have had a Center, if Circumference existed. Since it cannot be enclosed within any Center or Circumference It would be unintelligible, without the Absolute , being both. The Absolute is an Infinite Sphere, Center everywhere, Circumference nowhere. This is the second best Definition, The first being Being-Knowledge-Bliss ! At Infinity, Center and Circumference are one, Maxima and minima coincide. Science and Art meet at Infinity, Past, Present and Future become one. Mat

Science of Definition, Nirukta Sastra, Was well developed by Yaska. It was started to define Vedic concepts, And to refute the Non-Vedic. { Vasti tasya Niruktam tu Veda Nirvachanam Sphutam ) What is the Definition of Definition? It is Genus et differentia. " Man is a political animal" Satisfies the condition stated. ( animal is the genus & political , differentia ) But Brahman, the Summum Genus, is Indefinable, As it has no proximate genus ! How can the One, which became an innumerable multitude, Sastisfy the condition of genus et differentia? Best definition  of Absolute Brahman, Was given by the poet, Aurobindo. It was defined as the Sevenfold Chord of Being, With lowest term as Matter and highest, pure Being ! Previous best was Being-Knowledge-Bliss, The Upanishadic Sat Chit  Anandam Brahma, Which was extended, incorporating four more, Life, Mind, Matter and Supermind. Sages spoke of It negatively, Neti, Neti, Said It is not this, It is

The Twelve Commandments of Lord Dhanwantari 1.Rectify the effects arising from Prajna Aparadha, Fault in Consciousness, which is the root cause of all diseases. 2.Thou shalt observe Ritucharya, seasonal routine. 3.Thou shalt observe  Dinacharya,    daily routine. 4.Thou shalt observe .Brahmacharya,  continence. ( Controlled Brahmacharya for the married ). 5.Thou shalt consume good amounts  of fruits & vegetables daily. 6.Prakriti is the Sole Healer. 7.Thou shalt consume oñly Sattwic Food.  8.He who conquers taste , conquers , Jithe Sarve Jithe Rase 9.Thou shalt resort to Oil Massage Therapy, Abhyangam Achareth Nityam 10.Thou shalt follow Usha Paana Chikitsa, Dawn Water Therapy. 11.Indulge in Tejopasana -Sunlight Therapy 12.Fasting Therapy, when one is sick, Lankhanam Param Oushadham Why is Brahmacharya extolled ? Seminal energy, Retas, consists of three properties – Heat,  Light & Electricity,   Tapas, Ojas & Vidyut. This energy is

The Eternian knows he is Being, Infinite Sphere, Self, Center everywhere, Circumference nowhere. Him the fire cannot burn, Him the water cannot wet, Him the sword cannot pierce nor wind dry. What can all these trials and tribulations do, To the Birthless, Everlasting One, Whom fire cannot burn nor wind dry? This Eternal Self knoweth no destruction. More luminous than all luminaries, Self shines beyond Nescience. It is the Substratum .the Base of All,, Being Knowledge, Knower and Known. Him the Sun cannot express, nor the Moon, Nor the Stars, Lightning cannot express Him, Nor fire, as  through Him they shine, And Self is His great transparent mirror ! The body-mind-intellect complex, the Ego, Sows the wind and reaps the whirlwind, Known as the Law of  Karma, While the Self remains uninvolved. This is the Glorious Doctrine, Of the Self"s Non-responsibility He is non responsible, For actions of the Ego !

Mind - Overmind - Supermind Axis, Is the Central Theme in Aurobindo. Mind belongs to the Lower Trilogy, The other two belonging to Higher. Mind is defined as an interlude, Between subconscient Nature, And Superconscient Divine, And as a mediator divinity. A Still Mind is pure Being, And is more potent than Mind Active. Being  is Silence, Nishabdam Brahma, And Silence is indeed golden! Upper and Lower Hemispheres, Of the Unitive Reality, Are connected by Supermind, The plane of Perfect Gnosis ! Mind cannot accept Coincidence of Opposites ! Irreconcilable contrariety, Is nature of mental reason. Above Mind is Overmind, So above limited human vision. Opposites are coexistent correlatives, And not opposing contradictories. That which is contrariety to Mind, Coexistent correlatives to Overmind, Is to Supermind an integral Whole, Its vision being integral, global !

We have said that Vishu or the Sun’s entry into the zero degree of sidereal Aries, is the time for the farmers to sow. Vishu or the solar ingress into Aries, is celebrated all over Kerala. This is the dawn of a good era, as it marks the end of the hot seasons of Kumbha ( Aquarius ) and Meena ( Pisces ). Temperature touching 43 degrees is disconcerting. Vishu is the heralder of the two monsoons, the Kala Varsha and the Thula Varsha. Hail, Vishu, O Changer of Seasons ! Thou bringest news auspicious, And relief from the blistering heat, As the Sidereal Spring equinox.     Vishu    Read on at

Meshadiyude Prathama Vikalayil Sooryan……. Vishu / Vyshakhi/ Somkran Ashamsakal ! As Thy external Symbol, the Sun, Enters the First Second of Sidereal Aries, O Lord Dhanvantari, show Thy Hand, And redeem us from this life-devouring virus !

We are here for what? To gain Earth or Heaven? If gaining Heaven is the Summum Bonum, Then Poets are the true winners ! If Self Actualisation is the Goal, And gaining Heaven is paramount, Then millionaires will be bewildered, As they believe in Money's omnipotence ! They are the genuine winners, The Bliss attained Poets, As their Fame Body fearest not, Disease or Death ineluctable ! Jayanthi the Sukruthino Rasa Siddha Kaveeswara Nasti tesham Yasakaye Jara Maranajam Bhayam. Mundane Man thinks immediate, Poet thinks about Universal ! This is the main cause, Of Poet's maladaptations ! Higher ups in society, Are intellectually poor ! This is the main reason, For unsociability of Poet. Women are crticisers & naggers ! Poetic temparament not compatible, With feminine pugnacity ! Hence, The enmity of women and poets !

The first mathematical treatise, Was the Brahma Sphuta Siddhanta, Written by the ace mathematician, Brahmagupta from India. He called 5 degrees of the Zodiac, Jya, And so a Zodiacal Sign of 30, has six  Jyas. He gave Sine Tables for difference of 5 degrees, And originated concepts of sine and cosine. As Trikonamithi became Trignometry, And Jyamithi became Geometry later, Science of Jyas was highlighted, As longitudes computation  needed it. Bow and arrow was best example, Bow represents the Arc Sine, Chapa, And the Versine, 1 - cos x, Sara,arrow, And then, computation became simple. The rough Sine Table set up, Was later modified by Aryabhata, Who gave sine values for differences, Of three degrees and minutes forty five. Since it deals with R Sine Differences, It cannot be called a Sine Table, But the Table of R Sine Differences, Of great use to the computing student. Radius, R, is easy to calculate, 360 by 2 Pi is 57.3 degrees, Which converted

 , It so happened, Ithiha Asa, say the poets, The Seer Poets of the  Vedas, Who knew that without Allegories, Spiritual Truths cannot be taught ! Epic Poetry, Ithihasa,is allegorical , Symbolic of the Titanic, inner war, Between the black and white opposites, Of good and evil, Prosperity and Adversity ! Two major epic Poems here are, The Majestic Mahabharata, with 100 K verses, And Righteous Ramayana, with 24000 verses Written by high calibre mystic poets. Because of the Overmind  Aesthesis being present, We can call them as Ovemind Poetry. Thou shalt find illumination and inspiration there, As these verses are full of supramundane beauty. Man  is a composite creature. Virtue and Vice are mixed But the ratio is not fifty-fifty, Either good or evil is more. Vice more means Man Criminal, Virtue more means Man Sage. Half half is Man Common And cent percent Virtue is Man Divine. Imperfect principle is Ego, Perfect principle is Self. Ego is our negat

Kundalini Music is the perfect blend, Of two Sastras, Sangeetha and Tantra. It can arouse the Serpent Power, And take one to Enlightenment ! Geetha Sastra is the Science of Lyrics, Vadya Sastra is Science of Music Instrumental. Nritta Sastra is the Science of Dance And all these three constitute Sangeetha ! Kundalini is the Serpentine Power, Coiled in all mortals. It is the micro Representative Of the macro Universal Shakti. ( Kundalitha Shakti iti Kundalini ). Aim of both Sastras, Yoga and Tantra, are same It is the Unification of Knowledge, Known and Knower. Relative Ego merges with Absolute Self in Kaivalya, And this is considered as the Summum Bonum of Life. ( Jnathru Jnana Jneya Abheda Bhavanam Sree Chakra Poojanam ). Eternians have been reviled, For indulging in Snake worship. External snake they worship not, But the inner, serpentine power, Cause of such undeserved criticism, Is undoubtedly Ignorance ! They know not the Esoteric, And fail i

  India is not a Colony, but a Nation, A Civilization, like the mighty West. India has her Poets, Scientists and Philosophers, Just like the powerful West. As scholars, Indian and Western, believe differently Let us be least controversial Both are great civilizations And none plagiarised from the other.   According to Western Learning, Kepler first postulated Planetary Laws. According to Indian Learning, Aryabhata first calculated celestial longitudes ! ( Aryabhato Graha Ganitham } Correct Mean Longitude thrice ComputIng Anomalies, Manda, Vipata & Sheeghra, Considering majot perturbations And you get the true longitude The Great Guru Shani Karsha, m = 1187 secs*( Sin ( xyear - 4660) * 360/918) And four more perturbations are computed Before the major calculations ! About Computation of Celestial Longitudes http://www.eastrovedica.com/html/computingvedicplanetarypositions.htm Soorya is the Central Eye Of the Solar System Beca

This is the Ultimate Formula of Wisdom The Divine Transmutation of Man ! Man is transmuted into something rich and strange Into Absolute Being, Knowledge and Bliss ! Philosophers were arguing before, Whether this or that Aspect of His is greater. By integrating all Four into Integral Yoga,. Sri Aurobindo solved the problem thus. The aim of the Integral Yoga, Poorna Yoga, Is to embrace the Lord in all His Aspects, And even beyond Aspect ! For, the Lord is the All, And more than the All ! Stay tuned ! Universal Love is needed in Bhakti Yoga, Prajna, Discrimination, in Jnana Yoga. Psychic Control in the Regal, Raja, Incorporate these three and transcend. But without His touch nothing can succeed Only the Touch of That, which is all Becomings, And yet exceeds all Becomings, can liberate Man, From the imperfections of his limited .nature. Transmutation is scientfically possible Alchemy is the Science dealing with such Baser metals can be converted into Aur
