YOGA, THE FUNDAMENTALS

SPEAK OF A SIMILAR

PHENOMENON

“ALL PRAISE IS TO THE

ONE”- RUMI

DILIP RAJEEV

I am neither Christian nor Jew, neither Magian nor Muslim,I am not from east or west, not from land or sea,

not from the shafts of nature nor from the spheres of the firmament,not of the earth, not of water, not of air, not of fire.

I am not from the highest heaven, not from this world,not from existence, not from being.

I am not from India, not from China, not from Bulgar, not fromSaqsin,

not from the realm of the two Iraqs, not from the land of Khurasan.I am not from the world, not from beyond,

not from heaven and not from hell.I am not from Adam, not from Eve, not from paradise and not from

Ridwan.My place is placeless, my trace is traceless,

no body, no soul, I am from the soul of souls .

I have chased out duality, lived the two worlds as one.One I seek, one I know, one I see, one I call.

HE is the first, HE is the last, HE is the outer,HE is the inner.

Beyond HE and HE IS, I know no other.I am drunk from the cup of love, the two worlds have escaped me.

I have no concern but carouse and rapture.If one day in my life I spend a moment without youfrom that hour and that time I would repent my life.If one day I am given a moment in solitude with you

I will trample the two worlds underfoot and dance forever.O Sun of Tabriz, I am so tipsy here in this world,

I have no tale to tell but tipsiness and rapture.

‘ “I am naught, HE is all; thereis no being but God's. “ This is

the extreme of humility and self-

abasement. ’ -RUMI

DILIP RAJEEV

“We are as the flute, and the music in us is fromthee;

we are as the mountain and the echo in us is fromthee.

We are as pieces of chess engaged in victory anddefeat:

our victory and defeat is from thee, O thou whosequalities are comely!

Who are we, O Thou soul of our souls,that we should remain in being beside thee?

We and our existences are really non-existence;

thou art the absolute Being which manifests theperishable.

We all are lions, but lions on a banner: because of the wind they are rushing onward

from moment to moment.

Their onward rush is visible, and the wind is

unseen:

may that which is unseen not fail from us!

Our wind whereby we are moved and our beingare of thy gift;

our whole existence is from thy bringing into

being.

- RUMI

AND SO FORTH,

IN THE MOST ANCIENTINDIAN WRITINGS,

DILIP RAJEEV

POETRY ATTRIBUTED TOMIRA BAI SAYS,

“Mine is the lifter of mountains, thecowherd, and none other.

O sadhus! there is no other--I have seenthe whole world.

I left brothers, I left kindred, I left

all I had.

Sitting near the sadhus, I lost worldly shame.I looked at the devotees and I was one with

them; I looked at the world and wept.

With tears I watered love’s creeperand it took root.

I churned the milk, drew out the ghee

and threw away the whey.

Rana sent a cup of poison; I drank it

and stayed ecstatic.

Mira’s attachment is strong--what was tohappen has happened.

O friend, I cannot live without thedelightgiver.

Mother-in-law fights, my sister-in-lawteases,

The Rana remains angry.

They have a watchman sitting at the door,and a lock fastened on it.

Why should I give up my first love,the love of my former life?

None else pleases me.

Mirabai “

The word sadhu means sage; Rana is the family nameof her husband.

My Dark One has gone to an alien land.

DILIP RAJEEV

He has left me behind, he's never returned, he's never sentme a single word.

So I've stripped off my ornaments, jewels andadornments, cut my hair from my head.

And put on holy garments, all on his account, seekinghim in all four directions.

Mira: unless she meets the Dark One, her Lord, shedoesn't even want to live.

— Mira Bai, Translated by John Stratton Hawley

*STRIPPING OF ORNAMENTS AND ADORNMENTSWERE RITUAL FOR WIDOWS IN THOSE DAYS

After making me fall for you so hard, where are yougoing?

Until the day I see you, no repose: my life, like a fishwashed on shore, flails in agony.

For your sake I'll make myself a yogini, I'll hurl myself todeath on the saw of Kashi.

Mira's Lord is the clever Mountain Lifter, and I am his, aslave to his lotus feet.

— Mira Bai, Translated by John Stratton Hawley

“Unthinkable, unmanifest,endless, imperishable, the

glorious lord of everything,

that from whom everything is born, the one cause of theuniverse, the one who

manifests the three world byhis thoughts, that Hari I

surrender to, the goal of great

souls.”– ARJUNA, THEPANDAVA GITA, AS TRANSLATED BY

DILIP RAJEEV

“If I were to go into lower births dragged down by theropes of time, if I were to be born as a bird or an insectwithout a kula 4 , even if Iwere to be born a hundred

times as a worm, Oh lord, thisis my heart’s constant prayer:May I, in all those births, have

unshakeable devotion toKeshava in my heart.”

-NAKULA, THE PANDAVA

GITA, AS TRANSLATED BY SATYA

CHAITANYA.

DILIP RAJEEV

“Oh lord, this is my prayer toyou: as I wander from birth to

birth in different species, in eachone of them, oh Achyuta, may I

have unshakeable devotion inyou. The unswerving love thatthe ignorant have for sensual

pleasures, may I have the samesteadfast love for you! May thatlove never leave my heart! May I

remember y ou constantly!”-PRAHLADA, THE PANDAVAGITA, AS TRANSLATED BY SATYA CHAITANYA.

ALL PERCEPTION IS

REDUCED TO WILLMOVEMENT,

THE WORLD DOESN’TBOTHER US,

SO TO SPEAK,

WE PARTAKE OF IT,

DILIP RAJEEV

YET IT AFFECTS US NOT,

THE JOY FOUNTAIN IS SOSTRONG,

THAT THE WORLD ISRECUDED TO ITS

MOVEMENTS,

Assume you are engrossed reading your favourite author,and are reading through one of the very best sections,

THE FIRST TIME,of say, Harry Porter, of which you are a huge fan,

And your friend is saying something, not remotely asinteresting,

Your friend’s words may touch some portionsof yourpsyche,

Yet not its core,It doesn’t move your deeper mind,

and quickly disappears,

Not affecting you,That perception moves with YOUR STRONGER INNER

JOY,AND IS SOON DISSOLVED AWAY,

It moves with and is absorbed in the joy-experience of the book,

Similarly, WHEN THE BOND WITH THE ONE,THE SOURCE,

THE YOGA ESTABLISHES THE STREAM,the world-perception is like

the silly words of your friends,while you are engrossed in your book.

The stream,the FOUNTAIN TO THE ONE

SOURCE,

THEN DEFINES YOUR

PATTERN OF KNOWING,

DILIP RAJEEV

DRIVES YOUR PSYCHE,

THAT IS THE STATE OFSAMPRAJNATA,

THE PHRASE MAY ALSO BE

IN PERCEPTION OF THE FORMMANIFEST, OF DISSOLVING

INTO THE BODYLESS NATURE-PERCEPTION.

IN PERCEPTION OF THE

DILIP RAJEEV

FORM OF THE LORD,

HOLDING HIS FORM INHEART, AND MIND,

AND VERY SOUL,

WE TRANSFORMOURSELVES,

WE ESTABLISH YOGA,AS WE REFLECT THE ONE

NATURE IN US,

LEAVING OUT ALL OTHER

PECEPTION,

ANOTHER WAY,

IS TO HOLD THE PERCEPTIONOF THE ONE’S NATURE,

DEEP IN OUR MINDS,

TILL WE DISSOLVE,

ASSIMILATE OUR VERYSELVES,

AS INDICATED BY THEWORD, LAYA,

DILIP RAJEEV

INTO THE ONE’S NATURE

OF WHAT WE ARE

ALLOWED BY THE ONE,

TO PERCEIVE,

OF THE ONE ’S

NATURE,

THAT IS.

The word layānam,

HAS A SENSE NOT EASILYEXPRESSED IN ENGLISH,

APTE GIVES THE SENSES, OFTHE WORD ROOT LAYA

“Fusion, melting, solution,”“Disappearance, dissolution, extinction,

destruction; universal destruction ( ); 'to be dissolved or destroyed'. ”

“Sticking, union, adherence.“

THE WORD LAYA,

DILIP RAJEEV

ALSO GIVES THE SENSE OF

A BEAUTEOUS

ONENESS,A KIND OF MELTING

AWAY,DISSOLVING INTO,

TO QUOTE FROM BRYANT

TRANSLATION OF THEYOGASUTRAS,

“Yoga has always been theistic: As Feuerstein and others

have enjoined emphatically, “The popular notion that theconcept of God was interpolated into classical Yoga is

completely unfounded.” “- EDWIN F.

BRYANT

Bryant also points out that

schools such as Shankya whichin later literature did not seem to

discuss GOD, in human form,

Were “infact widely theistic inits early expressions, and

DILIP RAJEEV

continued to retain widespread

theistic variants.. as evidenced inthe Puranas.”

Sankhya holds ANUNMANIFEST,

UNKNOWABLE PURUSHA,

GENERATED THE UNIVERSE,

EVEN IF THEY DO NOT, LIKE

THE BHATI YOGA SCHOOLS,FOCUS ON THE LORD’S

THEIR GOAL IS AS WELL TO

DILIP RAJEEV

AND A BELL HELD

NEAR THE GENITALSPACES,

IN THE OTHER HAND,

THE SYMBOLISM

DILIP RAJEEV

IN THE NATURE OF THEONE ,

THUNDERS THROUGHTHE SYSTEM,

RENEWING, PERFECTING IT.

VAJRA ALSO MEANS,

DIAMOND,THE NATURE OF THE NEWLY

FORMING SPINAL,

IN THEIR THOUGHT,

THE WORD YOGA MEANS

TO BOND,

AND IF WE BOND WITH

ANYTHING OTHER THANTHE ETERNAL,

THE BOND IS PURPOSELESS,

WE ESTABLISH NO IDEAL,

THAT IS NOT WASHED AWAYBY TIME,

UNLESS IT IS THE

DILIP RAJEEV

ETERNALONE

THAT WE BOND WITH

OTHER SCHOOLS, PERCEIVE THE ONE NATURE IN AMORE NATURAL WAY,

ASSIMILATING THEMSELVES.

SOME STUDY IT AS THE NUMBERS AND THEIREVOLVATORIES IN THE BODY,

THE FUNDAMENTAL PERCEPTION OF EACHNUMBER,

IN THE BODY,THE FOUNTAINING STREAMS IN THE PERCEPTION,

THEY BOND TO THE ONE SOURCE,

THUS, IN THEIR THEORY,BONDING THE ENTIRE SYSTEM,

AMONGST ANCIENT DAOIST TRADITIONS,

THEY PONDERED THE ONE’S NATURE,

AS PERCEPTION OF THE ONE LINE,

IS HOW THE SYMBOL FOR ONE ( ) IS EXPLANED,IN SHUO WEN, A 1800 YEAR OLD CHINESE

DICTIONARY,

IN ITS FIRST ENTRY,

DILIP RAJEEV

WHAT RUMI IMPLIES INMAKING THE TWO ONE,AND THE SAME IDEA OF

THE DUAL BONDED,EXISTS IN GNOSTIC

A SYMBOL OFFOUNTAINING,

A SYMBOL OF A ROOF, THEVAULT OF THE UNIVERSE

In the CHINESE SCRIPT,

IN THE MODERN FORM,IT IS,

THE LEGS-PELVIC, ONE

AND GENERATED ANEW,

The AZTECS LOSTTHEIR UNDERSTANDING

OF THE SACRIFICE OF HEART,

and later understood it in

DILIP RAJEEV

If we study the ancient form ofan Chinese symbol,

We see the vault, the roof, in a

tapering form, indicating a stateof updrawal,

THE ONE IS SHOWN AS AHORZIONAL LINE,

THE SACRAL SPACE,WHERE THE ONE REFLECTS

AS A vAND BELOW WHICH IS

A SYMBOL FOR WATER,

TWO BROKEN LINES ONTHE OUTSIDE, AND A SOLID

BAGUA SYMBOL FOR WATER.

DILIP RAJEEV

THIS IS AN ABSTRACTION

OF THE UNIVERSE,

THE ONE GENERATING

THE SAME PROCESS IS

ENGENDERED INRENEWING-PERFECTING THE

HUMAN BODY

THE HUMAN BODY IS AMICROCOSMOS,

“AS ABOVE, SO BELOW,AS OUTSIDE, SO INSIDE,

BY ANALOGY,BETWEEN THE GREATER

AN ASPECT, ATLEAST,

ANALOGOUS,

THIS WERE THE ORIGIN OF

THE ALPHABETS,

AND THUS OF TRUE

EARLY ALPHABETS WERE

ALL ABSTRACTIONS OFANATOMICAL AND

NEUROANATOMICAL

TRANSFORAMATIONS,

IN A STATE OF PROFOUNDAND DEEP BONDING WITH

IN A NON-DUAL STATE,

THE SYMBOLS ARE A WAYOF REACHING TO HIS

AND A SCIENTIFIC

AMERICAN GUEST BLOG,BY R. DOUGLAS FIELDS,

“Suk and Tamargo are experts in neuroanatomy atthe Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in

Baltimore, Maryland. In 1990, physician FrankMeshberger published a paper in the Journal of the

American Medical Association decipheringMichelangelo’s imagery with the stunning

recognition that the depiction in God CreatingAdam in the central panel on the ceiling was a perfect

anatomical illustration of the human brain in crosssection. Meshberger speculates that Michelangelosurrounded God with a shroud representing thehuman brain to suggest that God was endowingAdam not only with life, but also with supremehuman intelligence. Now in another panel TheSeparation of Light from Darkness ..), Suk and

Tamargo have found more. Leading up the center ofGod’s chest and forming his throat, the researchers

have found a precise depiction of the human spinalcord and brain stem.

Is the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel a 500 year-oldpuzzle that is only now beginning to be solved? What

was Michelangelo saying by construction the voice box of God out of the brain stem of man? Is it a

sacrilege or homage? ”

ONEWHILE IN OTHER FIELDS

INTENSE EFFORT MAY MEANHURRIED DAYS,

AND A HURRIED MIND,

AND WORRY,

AND NOT KNOWING WHATTO DO,

INTENSE EFFORT IN YOGA,IS RELAXING THE MIND,

WITHDRAWING IT FROM THE

WORLD,

DISSOLVING THE VRITTIS,

AND FOCUSED,EASY WORK,

IF WE REMEMBER WHAT WEARE TO DO.

Assume you got a cold, AND A RUNNY NOSE,while you were working on a project, or there

emerges some news you would have done well notto hear, In a state of intense effort, WE SEE EACH

THOUGHT-ACTIVITY IT GENERATES, THE

UNIDEAL FEELINGS OF THE COLD-INDUCEDSTATE, ETC.AS ALL VRITTIS TO BE DISSOLVED,

DILIP RAJEEV

THAT IS,

WE SEE THE PERCEIVING BEING, OUR SELVES, AS DIFFERENTFROM THE PERCEPTION-WAVE,

THE THOUGHT,THE EGO-ACTIVTY, ETC.

And while we would take medication, do things

that need to be done,

We see that opportunity, as one to train our minds,against a set of vrittis,

For neither hurry, nor worry,Helps anything,

A deeper unmoved,More relaxed state,

Allows us to make reasoned decisions,And in the world as well,

Play out responsibilities toward ourselves,And the world,

In greater ways,

Or think of another scenario,

You need a morning jog,Or to spend time working out,

For a healthy body always helps,

Gain a healthy mind,

Yet, the way you go about it

inside,Would be one of engenderingTHE IDEAL BODY IN EVERY

or, if not, UNABLE TOPERCEIVE THE ONE,

when tired, or feeling lazy,the VRITTI, of tiredness,

of laziness,

VARIANTS OF THIS TEXT HAVE

BEEN PRESENTED BY VARIOUSAUTHORS AND MYSTICS,

“And since all things exist in and eminate from the

ONE Who is the ultimate Cause, so all things are bornafter their kind from thi s ONE” – Fulcanelli,

TRANSLATED BY SIEVEKING, CAPITALIZATIONof THE WORD ‘ONE,’ IS APPARENLY BY

FULCANELLI.

“As all things owe their existence to the will of the

only one, so all things owe their origin to the one onlything, the most hidden by the arrangement of the only

God.” -Translated by Sigismund Bacstrom (allegedlytranslated from Chaldean) Bacstrom starts the versionhe presents with the phrase “The Secret Works oCHIRAM ONE in essence,” with the phrase CHIRAONE, IN CAPITALS. CHIRAM IN HEBREW MEANS

“And as the whole universe was brought forth from

one by the word of one GOD, so also all things areregenerated perpetually from this one according to thedisposition of Nature.” - From a Translation of theEmerald Tablet by Kriegsmann, allegedly from thePhoenician.

“ 0) Here is that which the priest Sagijus of Nabulushas dictated concerning the entrance of Balinas into

the hidden chamber... After my entrance into thechamber, where the talisman was set up, I came up to

an old man sitting on a golden throne, who washolding an emerald table in one hand. And beholdthe following - in Syriac, the primordial language-

was written thereon:1) Here (is) a true explanation, concerning which

there can be no doubt.2) It attests: The above from the below, and the belowfrom the above -the work of the miracle of the One.3) And things have been from this primal substance

through a single act. How wonderful is this work! It is

the main (principle) of the world and is itsmaintain er.”- An Arabic Version (from the German of

Ruska, translated by ‘Anonymous').

0) “Balinas mentions the

engraving on the table in thehand of Hermes, which says:1) Truth! Certainty! That in

which there is no doubt!2) That which is above is fromthat which is below, and thatwhich is below is from that

which is above, working themiracles of one.

3) As all things were

from one” - Jabir ibn Hayyan.

“..the descent of Man, the consummation of the

whole…the One Form that contains all forms, HisVery Image coequal with Himself. He finally comesto consummate and save the cosmos in the form ofMan – that is to gather into Himself and take it backinto Plemora.

..and so the Man, the Beloved descends.. havinglearned the lesson of the conformations and of thelimitation of the spheres, he decides to breakthroughthe great boundary itself; but to do so he must

descend still further into matter. Before he can burstthrough upwards, he must breakthroughdownwards.

Accordingly he breaks through the spheres

downwards, seeking his consort Nature below, andshows her his Divine Form…

And she in her great love wound herself around theimage of this Form mirrored upon her water, and

shadow of it thrown upon her earth..“– FROM THE

CORPUS HERMETICUM, AS TRANSLATED BY George RobertStow Mead, IN 1906.

“man is twofold; mortal because of body, but because of the essential

Man immortal.” – CORPUSHERMETICUM, AS TRANSLATED

BY George Robert Stow Mead,translation published in 1906 .

THE CORPUS HERMETICUM IS A BODY

The Philosopher’s Stone wereattributed

LEGENDARYPOWERS by the alchemists,

IN VEILED WRITINGS,which led the general public to

think of it as a substance, or a kindof elixir,

to be prepared according to a LOST

or SECRET recipe,AND DRUNK.

In “The Alchemy Reader: From Hermes Trismegistus toIsaac Newton ,”edited by Stanton J. Linden of Washington

State University, and published by the CambridgeUniversity Press,

Stanton writes of the, “the famously enigmatic emerald

table,”“In this brief tract the secrets of the preparation of the

philosopher’s stone were thought to be cryptically set forthon an emerald tablet. ”

Paul Kraus translates Jabir Ibn

Hayyan(721 A.D. – 815A.D.),AN ARAB OR PERSIANalchemist, writing on the

Emerald Tablet,"The body becomes a spirit, and takes on... fineness,

lightness, extensibility, coloration... The spirit... becomes a body and acquires the latter's resistance to

fire, immobility and duration. From both bodies alight substance is born , which.. precisely takes up a

middle position between the two extremes".

Burckhardt writes,“The wind which carries the spiritual germ in its body, is the vital breath, and, more generally, the

DILIP RAJEEV

‘subtle stuff’ of the intermediate world betweenheaven and earth – that is, between the supra-

formal(or purely spiritual) world and the corporealworld. The vital breath is also Quicksilver which

contains the germ of gold in a liquid state. It’s nurse isthe earth – that Is to say, the body, as an inward

reality."

Quicksilver is a term for mercury - THE SEMINAL INAN IDEAL STATE, IN ONE NATURE. Gold is a term

for the new body, the ideal body,The lead transformed to gold is aggregates of the

earthy mind and body transformed.

Terms such as

MAKING THE FIXED

VOLATILE,AND THE VOLATILE FIXED,

were used in a similar sense bythe Alchemists.

The VOLATILE IS THE BOTHTHE SPIRIT INDUCED EARTH,

AND THE NEW FROM,

THE ONE SOURCE,FORMING THE NEW BODY,

The Mandeans believe Jesus, thedisciple John, etc., were disciples

of John The Baptist.

A Mandean text says,“The priests were angry, and went

to Yahya(John The Baptist) andordered him to leave Jerusalem.Yahya defied them saying ‘Bringswords and cut me, bring fire and

burn me, or water and drown me. ’ And the priests replied. ‘Yahya, weknow that swords will not cut thee,

nor fire burn thee, nor water drownthee. ’

“ Just as all things proceed by meditation on Onealone, so also are they born from this .one thing byadaptation. “ – Translation by Burckhardt., from a

Latin version of the text of the Emerald Tablet.

He says, “This means that the Hermetic workproceeds… following the pattern.. of the emanatioof the world from One Divine Being, by the means

of One Spirit.”

He notes that instead of “meditatione unis”( by

meditation on ONE alone), some manuscripts have“meditatione unis”( by the meditation of the ONEAnd, that “this essentially means the same thing.”

Redgrove: Sun and Moon "probably stand for Spiritand Matter respectively, not gold and silver".

Burckhardt: Sun "is the spirit (nous), while the moonis the soul (psyche)".

“Nous,” Burckhardt explains his idea of, elsewhere, in

saying, that the Nous, the Spirit, “constantlycontemplates the Supreme Unity, THE ONE,

THOUGH UNABLE TO EVER KNOW HIM,

Schumaker: "If the moon is associated with water, as because of its ‘moisture' [as] was usual, and the sun

with fire, the prima materia is understood to have been generated by fire, born of water, brought down

from the sky by wind, and nourished by earth".

'As a lump of salt, when thrown into water, becomes dissolved into water, and could not be

taken out again, but wherever we taste (the water) itis salt,--thus verily, O Maitreyî, does this great

vanish again in them. When he has departed, thereis no more knowledge (name), I say, O Maitreyî.'

Thus spoke Yâ gñ avalkya.

Then Maitreyî said: 'Here thou hast bewildered me,

Sir, when thou sayest that having departed, there isno more knowledge.'

But Yâ gñ avalkya replied: 'O Maitreyî, I say nothingthat is bewildering. This is enough, O beloved, for

wisdom.

'For when there is as it were duality, then one seesthe other, one smells the other, one hears the other ,one salutes the other, one perceives the other, one

knows the other; but when the Self only is all this,how should he smell another, how should he

see another, how should he hear another, how

How should he know Him bywhom he knows all this?

higher than the Great, the highestUndeveloped.'

'Beyond the Undeveloped is thePerson , the all-pervading and entirely

imperceptible …[every being] that knows him is

liberated, and obtains immortality. …

'This, the firm holding back of the senses, is what iscalled Yoga. He must be free from thoughtlessness

then, for Yoga comes and goes .'

'He (the Self) cannot be reached by speech, bymind, or by the eye. How can it be apprehended

except by him who says: "He is?"'

- THE KATHA UPANISHAD, as translated by Max Muller.

DILIP RAJEEV

He (the knower of the Self) knows that highesthome of Brahman , in which all is contained andshines brightly. The wise who, without desiring

happiness, worship that Person , transcend this

seed, (they are not born again.)

..That Self cannot be gained by the Veda, nor by

understanding, nor by much learning. He whom theSelf chooses, by him the Self can be gained. The Self

chooses him (his body) as his own...

The wise, having reached Him who is omnipresenteverywhere, devoted to the Self, enter into him

wholly.

Having well ascertained the object of the knowledge
