By the Grace of God Evolve to Higher States of Consciousness with Your Meditation Practice
It is by the Grace of God that the Vedas, the Laws of Nature, emerge from the Wholeness of the Field of the Absolute. It is by the Grace of God the Vedas unfold in a sequential manner, with reference to what has come before, and with reference to Wholeness. It is by the Grace of God the sounds and vibrations of the Vedas collapse and manifest all of Creation. These Laws of Nature keep Creation in the stream of evolution: from Wholeness, through Wholeness, to Wholeness. Your many lifetimes as a human being are governed by Natural Law, to […]
Whether a Householder or a Recluse, Experience Divine Being in Your Meditation Practice
Maharishi teaches that it does not matter whether your way of life is as a householder or as a recluse. To gain Higher States of Consciousness, you must do your Meditation Practice. Your way of life, either out in the world or in seclusion in a monastery or on an ashram, should be carried out in a measured and balanced manner. Either way of life will integrate and stabilize the changes in Consciousness that come from your Meditation Practice. We have many different lifetimes as human beings. The purpose of these lives is the evolution to Higher States of Consciousness. […]
To Be the Best Person You Can Be, You Must Know Who You Are
In our daily lives, we sometimes react to situations with anger, or impatience or with some other stressed response. We do not like that behavior of ours, and we want to change it. We want to have better interactions with the ones we love, and with people in general. We want to be a better person. How can you move forward in your life in this direction? Know who you are. Who you are is invulnerable, eternal, unbounded and never changing: Your Self. Your Self projects as your mind and physiology; It projects as all of Creation. When you have […]
Devotion to God Is the Most Refined of the Finest Feelings
The teaching of the Ancient Vedic Masters is that devotion to the Lord is the offering of service, reverence and love. This offering of devotion is only possible when one is established in one’s Self. The consciousness of the relative field, the waking, dreaming or sleeping states, is full of activity. One is always busy doing, perceiving, thinking and feeling. This activity of the relative field covers the Awareness of Self; It covers and hides your true nature. The Self is the experience when the relative field, with all its ever changing activity, is transcended: The Self is left by […]
Self Referral Is the Simplest Form of Awareness
As we live our lives here in the world, we often think of things with reference to ourselves. We refer to our mind to help us determine the best course of action. But there is a much deeper understanding of Self referral. With the consciousness of the relative field, the waking, dreaming or sleeping state, we practice object referral. Any thoughts, perceptions, or feelings we may have are the practice of object referral. The consciousness of the object fills the mind and hides the Consciousness of Self. When you have a Meditation Practice that allows you to transcend the relative […]
How to Move Forward in Your Life in the Direction of Evolution for You and for the World
Maharishi teaches that a Meditation Practice which transcends the relative field gives the experience of Pure Consciousness, the experience of your Self. Transcending the relative field leaves your Self to experience ItSelf by ItSelf. That experience of Self, of Pure Consciousness, transforms your mind and your physiology in the direction of evolution. All your desires, thoughts and actions move towards spontaneous right desires, thoughts and actions. Right actions in the direction of evolution get the support of Natural Law for fulfillment. Your life is lived with more happiness and fulfillment. The influences of Pure Consciousness in your transformed mind and […]
Cultivate the Consciousness of Divine Being, the Universal God, in Your Meditation Practice
Many systems of Meditation do not reference God. Maharishi teaches that in a practice where the relative field is transcended, the experience is of Divine Being, of Universal God. Divine Being is the field of the Absolute. That field is unbounded and never changing, is Absolute in Its nature. It is the source of and the finest constituent of the relative field, our Universe, which is bounded by space, time and causation. That field of the Absolute is Pure Consciousness, is your Self, is Universal God. It has always been, is now and forever shall be. Who you really are […]
Explore the Faintest Level of Feeling That Is the Finest Field of Creation
Your feelings are finer projections of your mind than your thoughts. In your Meditation Practice, these feelings move from the grosser levels of feelings to the finer levels of feelings, to the faintest level of feeling. This is the interface of Consciousness and mind: The faintest level of feeling. When you transcend the relative field in your Meditation Practice, you go beyond relativity, beyond the faintest level of feeling. But the process of transcending itself traverses all the values of Creation, from the grosser surface values to the finer, more subtle values. Traversing the relative field allows the experience of […]
Unfathomable Is the Course of Action – Get the Best Possibility of Your Karma Now
Unfathomable Is the Course of Action – Get the Best Possibility of Your Karma Now. Unfathomable is the course of action. The Sanskrit word Karma is action. The consequences of your actions will show up at some point in your many lifetimes. As you sow, so shall you reap. Every action of yours has results that are governed by Natural Law. Their influences radiate out into the Universe. It is unfathomable when these influences will return to you. Your Karma unfolds with reference to what has come before, reference to your past actions, and also with reference to Wholeness, to […]
Maharishi Illuminates the Teaching of the Ancient Vedic Masters with His Commentary on the Bhagavad-Gita
Since the beginning, the Lord has manifested as a human being with full realization of Godhead. This is Personal God. The times, the evolution of the people and the place determine how the Lord manifests. The form of the Lord’s teaching corresponds to that particular place in time, with that particular consciousness of the people. For this reason, different religions have different interpretations of the Lord’s teaching. But the root of the teaching and the Lord remain unchanged. Universal God is Divine Being. Divine Being underlies the relative field; Underlies all of Creation. The source of Creation, and its finest […]
