• Asanas Yoga
  
  Shavasana pose Yoga: In shavasana pose, can we lie with our hands facing down, with hands/legs together instead of spreading apart. At night, due to tireness and comfort of the environment(air con/soft bed), I often fall asleep after few cycle of concentrating on my breathing. Before I tuned to my breathing rhythmically and focus my mind on my Self (doing enquiry), I already fallen asleep. Am I doing it correctly? And if I'm still conscious and able to proceed with my enquiry, I find my breathing couldn't be done rhythmically!
• Big Bang Theory
  
  Starting from the beginning in brief... the old cosmos is dissolving... it reduces to the size of half a thumb. This half a thumb, the cluster of pure energy... the combined total of all souls' atmans in the Cosmos is what we know as God Almighty. This colossal power... the massive energy unable to retain itself in its original form explodes with a big bang and starts the formation of a new cosmos.
• Body and Soul
  
  The best explanation of body and soul is provided in teachings of Bhagavad Gita! As per Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... our soul atman, the spirit within is absolute essence of life! Our soul atman has manifested human body to work out its karma... remove dross impurities within! The relationship between body and soul is that of heart in a body! In absence of heart ... body dies!

• Dream Interpretation
  
  Dreams primarily serve two purposes in life. Dreams through our subconscious self makes us aware of the path we should follow in this ephemeral world. Whenever dictated by ego... we follow a path... different from one desired by our soul atman within... it is through the medium of dreams God Almighty shows us the truth!
• Emotional Attachment
  
  It is the feeling of Moha that keeps mothers attached to their children until they manifest themselves. In India... parents take care of their children until they mature and stand on their legs... irrespective of the age! In the Western system... children develop sufficient maturity to live separately after 16 years of age.
• End Times
  
  No meteors... no dying of the sun... yes, the world awaits World War 3 in about five years. The year 2012 will be a year of reckoning! A fight to the finish between Christianity and Islamic Dharma... the aftermath of World War 3 would witness 1200 million people perishing in the calamity... a manmade calamity!
• First Name Meanings
  
  Meaning of first name Aakash: Aakash for a Hindu name is very enlivening... something beyond the subtle... the energy force of life! Beyond the existence of God almighty... it is the world of Aakash... the entire Brahmaand... the whole Cosmos that makes the world go round. The world of Maya (veil of illusion)... is an act of Aakash (Cosmos in its entirety)
• Higher Self
  
  Atman Brahman: Do atman and Brahman mean the same in Hinduism! What is the meaning of saying "Atman is Brahman" by various sages and saints of different era! How does Bhagavad Gita differentiate the two! Atman is termed soul in English. In Hinduism atman is equivalent of soul as in Christianity.
• Hindu Gods
  
  Hindu Beliefs do not form core of Hinduism alone... but the entire world! In absence of Hindu belief none world over can truly survive! Why? Essence of life lay not in living physical precept of life but searching for our inner self... our soul atman... the spirit within! In Hindu beliefs alone lay the fundamentals of cosmic system... where reality of true inner self can be perceived in totality!
• Hinduism Beliefs
  
  Hinduism: I am trying to find out if all religions have something in common. What is the central message of Hinduism? What are the most important ethical rules to live by according to hinduism!
• How to Meditate
  
  You would realize meditation is only a means of reaching God Almighty. In Hindi meditation is termed as yoga! Meditation... the word was derived from the root word yoga in Hindi which means the effort of our soul atman to merge with God Almighty at the earliest. Ever since every soul atman separated from God Almighty... it always desires liberation from the cycle of birth and death at the earliest!
• How to Stop Masturbating
  
  Male and female masturbation is not a taboo nor is it a sin as seen by most! It is a natural act ordained by God Almighty to keep humanity at bay! In absence of act of masturbation the whole society would become promiscuous... practically getting out of control! For human beings to live within moral and ethical boundaries... the act of masturbation was inbuilt by God Almighty!
• Is There a God
  
  God Almighty did not give us the ability to doubt his existence... he simply made a self propelling cosmic system that works on its own! The power of discrimination available to all human beings... that distinguishes us from animals makes a human being live by ones will! As is the karma performed... so shall be our destiny!
• Jainism Religion
  
  Jainism Lord Mahavira Tirthankara: This is further to the query about Jainism and Lord Mahavira being the last tirthankara. In one of your posts you said that Hinduism came before Jainism and Lord Krishna came before Mahavira, but I being Jain, was told that ninth tirthankara Bhagwan Naminath was Lord Krishna's uncle and Adinath 1st tirthankara was his great great grandfather....I am not sure of generations, but they were related and hence Krishna belonged to tirthankara nam gotra, because of his deeds, he is still not given the status of bhagwan even though he is very powerful and regarded as supreme power. In the next 24 tirthankaras, Lord Krishna and Ravana will be one of the tirthankaras.
• Jesus Christ
  
  Jesus Christ Lost Years: I have a query on Jesus Christ which probably you can answer with utmost authority and conviction since the entire knowledge of the cosmos has been revealed to you. From the spiritual essays on your website I gather that Jesus Christ realized self hence realized God in his lifetime. Can you shed light on Jesus's so called Lost Years (ie from age of 12 or 13 till the age of 30)? Did Jesus's soul leave the mortal frame when he was crucified or did that happen later? That is if he did survive crucifiction then what happened to him thereafter. Do clear the confusion regarding crucifixion and ressurrection if it really took place
• Kalki Bhagavan
  
  Bhagwan Kalki is not someone who drops from above... neither does God Almighty manifest himself ever! It is only when the hood of adharma (lawlessness) raises its head... the advent of Bhagwan Kalki becomes inevitable! The society cannot do without one... a combination of man god like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed and Chanakya (the foremost of all administrators mankind has ever witnessed).
• Karma Sutra
  
  Karma Sutra... the most important precept of spirituality is that inherent ingredient of cosmic system that controls every single action occurring in whole of cosmos. Every single indulgence... no matter how minute... physical or mental gets recorded in books of karma yoga automatically! Karma acts as accountant general of cosmic system!
• Kingdom of Heaven
  
  Humanity has totally failed to understand precept of heaven (termed swarga in Hinduism)! Kingdom of heaven is no place for human beings to go bodily. Even after death of body... only our soul atman, the spirit within hibernates in heaven if we have a positive residual balance of karma behind! A negative residual balance of karma earns a seat in hell (termed Naraka in Hinduism)!
• Kundalini Yoga
  
  The act of kundalini yoga results in full awakening of Kundalini Shakti! Full awakening of kundalini energy is necessitated for reaching stage of enlightenment (self realization) and finally salvation (moksha)! Kundalini Energy... the coiled Serpentine energy lying dormant in base of spine gets fully activated by practice of absolute celibacy for a minimum period of progress in continuation!
• Life after Death
  
  Life after death is inevitable part of life... the entire cosmic span of life undertaken by our soul atman... the spirit within! As per Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism the journey of life belongs to our soul atman that has manifested human form to work out its karma... remove dross impurities within! Only after death of body... our soul atman manifests a new life form... never before!
• Lord Shiva
  
  Practicing absolute celibacy voluntarily for a minimum period of 12 years makes a Buddha out of an ordinary mortal. This is how this cosmic power of Shiva Lingam manifests in the mortal world! Shiva Lingam... the power of lingam... Linga is only symbolic! One needs to manifest the inner meaning of cosmic world!
• Manifest Destiny
  
  The destiny of a human being is governed by the karma of the present life and the residual balance of karma of all previous manifestations. In the doctrine of karma, God Almighty planted an element X so that the intelligent human being does not manipulate the present or the future! If everything in the cosmic system resulted in two plus two equals four... there was a possibility of misuse of this highly potential ability!
• Moksha Yoga
  
  Moksha yoga is reaching ultimate crux of human life... the end goal of cosmic life... stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha) forever! Reaching stage of moksha yoga in Hinduism announces one finally reaching 8.4 millionth manifestation... the last in cosmic life cycle! Moksha salvation Hinduism announces our soul atman finally liberating self from cycle of birth and death forever and entering kingdom of God (termed Vaikuntha in Hinduism)!
• Origin of Life
  
  Origin of life... evolution of life in cosmic system occurred for the first time when life supporting planets like mother earth evolved all over cosmos! No sooner planets like mother earth formed... souls atmans immediately started manifesting life one after another. And started the theory of evolution! Supported by an infallible law of karma... life continues to evolve in cosmic system!
• Parallel Universe
  
  No parallel universes exist in the Cosmos. In fact there never has been X dimension. We simply have one Cosmos... that contains many universes... one universe containing millions of galaxies... one galaxy containing millions of stars out of which our solar system... the sun is a small star!
• Planetary Motion
  
  Primarily a human being is more of a water body than substance. Every human being has different combination of metals and minerals present in the body. Those having more of iron in their body are more affected by the planet Mars which has an abundance of iron in its core. The metals and minerals in our body are always in a state of attraction or repulsion 24 x 7.
• Prophet Mohammed
  
  Understanding teachings of Islam Prophet Mohammed amidst a horde of Islam beliefs that have taken root since coming of Prophet Mohammed have made it all the more difficult to truly understand the precepts of Muslim world... Islamic world! Many followers of Islam world over think Muslim as Kafir which is a wrong ideology. God Almighty is one... names can be many!
• Religion Spirituality
  
  Spirituality is that essence of life in absence of which humanity carried no value! Primarily... we are all spiritual beings... spiritual consciousness on its cosmic journey of 8.4 million manifestations... an earthly life cycle of 96.4 million years! In our cosmic sojourn as a soul atman... we reached cosmic end of life when human beings gained enlightenment!
• Self Realization Fellowship
  
  Self realization truly means reaching the stage of Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed! One simply does not become a Gautama Buddha overnight! One needs traveling the spiritual path all alone by following the path of jnana yoga. Cutting across all shackles of ephemeral life... establishing absolute control over the five senses and the mind... one finally dwells in the domain of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana).
• Soul Mates
  
  Yes, every single individual living on Mother Earth has a partner in hiding... a soul mate that would practically match hundred percent with one! This has been a saying by people falling in love now and always. But this is also the truth. God made the destiny of mankind like that.
• Spiritual Enlightenment
  
  Enlightenment: You often state just two people attained enlightenment in the past 150 years... What about the possibility of people who never announced their enlightenment? (i.e. people who attained enlightenment, but never worked as masters). Though your statement on Vivekananda seems to be authentic from his own life history, your statement on Osho's realisation seems to contradict his own description of his enlightenment. What do you have to say on the state of the present masters like Sadhguru jaggi vasudev and sri sri ravishankar who teach the yogic path for realisation?
• Spiritual Healing
  
  Define Spirituality: Exclusive Articles Spirituality Spirituality vs Religion: spirituality is one word which puts a human being on the highest pedestal of life. It is field of Spirituality traveling which one reaches the last leg of cosmic life nay the form of human being himself! The difference between Spirituality and Religion is the most often asked question on the net. what differentiates Religion from Spirituality?
• Spiritual Teacher
  
  One very important thing on the spiritual path is... on the uncharted path of spirituality... we are our own guide. There is nothing to be taught by the spiritual master. None can teach anyone unless the student... the shishya is willing to partake the wisdom... drop by drop... bit by bit. However best the teacher teaches... if the student is unwilling to learn... nothing can be done!
• Swami Vivekananda
  
  Swami Vivekananda has numerous times stated that he was never after gaining enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) or salvation (moksha). When Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa point blank asked Swami Vivekananda... why he had come to Ramakrishna Paramhansa... his simple reply was, to see God Almighty. Swami Vivekananda was never after gaining enlightenment.
• Talk to The Dead
  
  In the whole of cosmic system... there is no theory... no doctrine that supports contacting the spirits. Why? As per the sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... the most sacred scripture existing on Mother Earth... all spirits are nothing else but our soul atman living within the heart of every living being including human beings.
• The Bhagavad Gita
  
  In a nutshell it is Bhagavad Gita that explains to us... Wisdom is not about gaining something in life but shedding the impurities dross within! The absence of dross impurities indicates our soul atman regaining its pure pristine original form... the stage of enlightenment as a human being! The enlightened human being after salvation (moksha) finally enters the abode of God... a point of no return!
• The Power Within
  
  The real strength comes from our own character... the path of truthfulness that we are supposed to follow. Unless we are truthful to self... no matter whom we look forward to... the happiness we search for always eludes us. We have to follow the path of absolute truthfulness to stand up and face life again.
• Thinking Process
  
  Every action was conceived initially as a thought. Unless the thought exists... action can never occur! Every war... every happening was initially invoked as a thought. Does it mean... it is thoughts that precipitate into action... yes, it is so!
• True Religion
  
  The root of all religions is Dharma (righteousness)... not faith! When not one religion existed on Mother Earth... the humanity still survived. How? Dharma is that inherent ingredient in the cosmic system which forms the sap of living form! Devoid of Dharma (righteousness) life simply could not exist on Mother Earth or in the Cosmos!
• UFO Sightings
  
  There is nothing like a UFO that exists on Mother Earth or around. It can never be. The concept of UFOs has been built around the fact that superpowers keep testing their aerial gadgets... to spy on one another. If a secret airplane meant for spying purposes built by USA is discovered by people world over... it is termed a UFO for USA would never admit its existence.
• US Economy
  
  I had just returned from Chicago after spending quite some time with my daughters. Times are really hard for everyone particularly in USA. Such financial difficulties have never been faced by the present generation Americans. The oncoming depression would be much severe than the American depression of 1929... Something that shall shake human beings at their roots!
• Vegetarianism Benefits
  
  If we intake a vegetarian meal... compared to the non vegetarian meal... it is much better on the spiritual path! We may eat meat available in the market... still; we never know under what circumstances the animal was killed. Killing a mother buffalo (having young siblings) and selling its meat in the market... the doer and the consumer both gets punished!
• What is Dharma
  
  About thousand years later the tree of Dharma developed its first branch and Mahavira... the 24th preceptor of Jainism came into being! The following of Mahavira was termed as Jainism. Although 23 preceptors of Jainism came earlier to Mahavira but Jainism is primarily recognized by the teachings of Mahavira during whose time the words of wisdom percolated to the masses!
• What is Reincarnation
  
  What is reincarnation: As such reincarnation is the most grossly misunderstood concept of Hinduism world over! Even followers of Hindu faith understood it wrongly! Most dictionaries termed reincarnation as birth of a soul in another body after death of present body! Something that can never be destructed or destroyed... how could it rebirth? It just cannot be!
• Who Am I
  
  Understanding who am I has remained the biggest mystery of mankind! The answer is simple... given in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism but it can never be understood literally! For a serious seeker of spirituality who am I means trying to search for our real truth... the truth of our inner self... our soul atman... the spirit within! Our innerself... soul atman... the spirit within is absolute master and controller of human body and not vice versa!
• Words of Wisdom
  
  The bookish knowledge helps one earn our daily bread! The spiritual knowledge (aka wisdom) helps one unfold the wisdom of the Cosmos... the world of God Almighty! Primarily we are all souls' atmans working our karma to eradicate the impurities within. The moment all impurities remove... human beings gain enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha).
• World War Three
  
  The world war three is expected around 2012... The year of Bhagwan Kalki (the Avatar of the present era... God manifest in human form). The coming world war would be the last War of the present era... a fight to the finish between Christianity and Islamic Dharma. Both these communities are fundamentalist in nature. They are not prone to reason. Anything that does not sustain logic... perishes in the long-term!
• Worshipping God
  
  If I had anything to offer to God, I would offer all my shortcomings... my ego... my imperfections devoid of which I would become absolutely pure and gain enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha) in this life. By gaining enlightenment... by becoming an enlightened one, I could disseminate the pearls of wisdom so gained to the masses.
• Veil of Maya
  
  Yes, everything else other than the world of souls (atmans in Hinduism) and Almighty God is an illusion (veil of ignorance)... the world of Maya (as expressed in Hinduism). Do we perceive the boundary of the present Cosmos? No! There does not seem to be a boundary! What beyond? If the present Cosmos does not have a boundary... does it mean it is boundary less!

Re-establishing Dharma (Righteousness)-

Re-establishment of Dharma (righteousness) is only made possible by an avatar... never a man God! Why? Every man God is a spiritual person! To accomplish a feat like re-establishing order back in Society... efforts much more than a man God are necessitated! This can be accomplished by one who gained enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) plus is an exemplary administrator!

The combination of spiritual powers and administrative feat is something very difficult to achieve... made possible only by an avatar... the prime reason why in a full circle of life only one avatar is necessitated! About 3600 years before now came Lord Krishna and in present times of strife people are expecting coming of Bhagavan Kalki... an avatar of modern era... new age!

Bhagavan Kalki... the awaited messiah of present era shall possess almost equivalent powers that of Lord Krishna! One single human being possessing such supernatural powers... such would be the might of this person that he shall develop a following of above 2000 million people worldwide! In present times of decay (mental degradation)... coming of a messiah is the only solution!

Mankind has stooped so low that sometimes it becomes difficult to differentiate human beings from animals! Animals always killed when hungry... mankind indulges in mass killing for the sake of glory ... for the sake of self appeasement! Finding our neighbor troubled makes us happier! We indulged in killing for the sake of pure pleasure... that we failed to believe was temporal!

Such is the state of society in present times that honor of women folk world over is at stake! Every lady symbolizes power of mother earth in absence of which no soul atman could ever manifest itself! Disrespecting a Lady is ominous sign of coming world war 3 in which above 1200 million people worldwide are expected to perish!

Ladies are sacrosanct in themselves! They have to be respected under all circumstances! The foremost of all things in the world is a mother who gives birth to mankind at large! If woman folk did not exist... there would not have been any society or humanity existing in cosmic system! However perilous the circumstances... our respecting a Lady at all stages of life is sacrosanct!

Lord Krishna waged war of Mahabharata when honor of Queen Draupadi was at stake! Even in presence of Bhishma Pitamah (the maternal grandfather of Draupadi) and guru Dronacharya... manhandling of Queen Draupadi by Dussasana in the court of King Arjuna continued unabated! Such moments precipitate actions that changed destiny of mankind!

In present times also... one amongst us who is fully dissatisfied with present affairs of life takes the ominous task of cleaning society of its ills forever! Such a one... an enlightened one... who finally succeeds in re-establishing Dharma (righteousness) would be termed Bhagavan Kalki... a sage of the modern era... the revered Avatar Kalki!

Invoking Krishna consciousness... invoking the powers that be... any human being world over can not only gain enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) but also don the mettle of an avatar! No avatar... no messiah comes out of nowhere! One is always existent amongst us! Normal human beings... masses... commoners only failed to recognize one!

The status of Bhagavan Kalki is not demanding of any decoration of the mortal world! Even a noble prize would not carry any meaning for him! Much above the present affairs of life... the mental level of Bhagavan Kalki would be much above all human beings combined world over! Understanding Bhagwan Kalki would not be the forte of commoners... masses!

Prime reason why human beings called an extraordinary mortal amongst us as Bhagwan... representation of God Almighty on mother earth!

Analysis of Bhagavad Gita-

Summed up... the essence of Bhagavad Gita is summum bonum of life on mother earth! In absence of Bhagavad Gita... everything in world would go astray! The decay of Roman Empire... Greek civilization is sufficient proof of the importance of Bhagavad Gita in affairs of mankind! In absence of Bhagavad Gita... the flourishing Roman and Greek civilizations of yester era perished!

Hinduism has flourished since long! India is the spiritual citadel of the world! The presence of Bhagavad Gita in India proves again and again that since the advent of mankind... all enlightened ones came from India! Lord Krishna, Mahavira and Gautama Buddha and to some extent... Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed... all gained their wisdom while remaining in India.

Nalanda and Taxila universities of yore existing in India were finest citadels of learning that attracted students from world over! The guru shisya parampara (tradition) that existed in earlier times resulted in students gaining spiritual wisdom par excellence! In present times we do not have even a single spiritual centre that can make people reach enlightenment!

Spiritual wisdom truly cannot be imparted! It has to be gained from within. Only a very ardent sincere seeker of spirituality can gain wisdom that makes one reach stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha)! Singing Krishna bhajans... remembering Radha Krishna in spiritual world does not carry much meaning!

Hare Krishna, Krishna bhajans, radha krishna and hare rama hare krishna... all these symbolic religious glossary relates to religion... never the path of spirituality! Most who talk of Krishna consciousness do not even understand what Krishna is all about! It is a proved fact of life that God Almighty can never be reached via path of religion... via path of bhakti yoga alone!

Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana... the two spiritual stalwarts who gained enlightenment in the past above 150 years world over initially started their spiritual journey via path of bhakti yoga. Subsequently both switched to path of jnana yoga... path of absolute wisdom! We have to understand underlying meaning of Bhagavad Gita to reach stage of enlightenment!

Understanding significance of sacred Bhagavad Gita is of prime importance in Hinduism! In absence of Bhagavad Gita nothing much on spiritual path can ever be achieved! Enlightenment simply cannot be gained via path of karma yoga... bhakti yoga... religion... path of rituals! For reaching God Almighty fathoming depth of wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita is necessitated!

On this website, LordKrishna.com you shall find articles related but not limited to-

Karma, Dharma, Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna, Bhagwan Kalki, Big Bang Theory, God, Enlightenment, Salvation, After life, Soul Atman, Hinduism Beliefs, Evolution Human Beings, Destiny, Jnana Yoga, 2012 end of the world etc...

Simply going through the essays would not mean anything! Unless we learn to contemplate... unless we learnt to understand the underlying meaning... nothing much in the spiritual world can be understood! The core of Bhagavad Gita... the essence of Bhagavad Gita can never be understood literally... we have to learn to read in between the lines!

Repeated reading of essays, articles would open new vistas of spiritual learning! For truly fathoming depth of wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita... we have to diligently follow the path of absolute truthfulness... no matter what! By listening to the sweet small inner voice of our soul atman... one finally became an enlightened one (Kaivalya Jnani)!
