    LAKSHMANA GITA: I   II   III   IV   V   VI   


    Swami:
    Consciousness or awareness is life energy
    Associated with the sophisticated nervous system
    When the life energy is associated with ordinary systems
    Inert electricity is called life energy.

    The brain is the central part of the nervous system
    Life energy flows as pulses in the nerve-wires
    This neuro system is a big computer
    These pulses are called ‘sphotas’ in Shastras.

    In the human brain, several microprocessors are
    Working together in the same time and therefore,
    Man receives all the characteristics of an object
    In the same time, computer differs here.

    For a long time, scientists were puzzled on this point
    Since in the computer only one microprocessor works
    So, the characteristics were received one by one by the computer
    Now the problem is understood and robot is created.

    It is now proved that the man is a computer
    Man is the most sophisticated item of the creation
    Gita calls the Jiiva as “Paraaprakruti
    Which means that it is the super most creation.

    Kruti means creation and prakruti means super creation
    Paraprakruti means the super most creation
    Paraprakruti is no doubt the topmost creation item
    But it is not creator who is independent.

    The ordinary systems in the human body are
    Respiratory, digestive, circulation etc.,
    The inert electrical energy associated with these systems
    Is called life energy since it produces the life.

    Life energy is more valuable than electricity
    This does not mean that the two energies are different
    Electricity is not valued so much because
    It is not associated with any valuable system.

    Therefore, the system brings the real value
    When the same life energy is associated with nervous system
    It is called consciousness due to the nervous system
    Which is topmost sophisticated instrument created.

    The system and energy associated produce work
    System and energy are inert and so work is inert
    Work is a form of energy and this work energy
    Takes various names like life, consciousness etc.,
    Works are different because systems are different.

    The costs of the instruments are different
    But the cost of the electricity that flows in all is the same
    The works are different and the work form energies
    Have different values under different names.

    When the system stops functioning
    The work form energy leaves the instrument at once
    When comes out is again the same electricity
    Electricity in the system is getting the value of the system.

    The nervous system never produces life energy
    It only uses the life energy whenever it functions
    But the other systems use and produce the life energy
    And they function all the time without the rest in the body.

    The nervous system may take rest without working
    All the other systems work and this is deep sleep
    When all the systems in the body stop functioning
    There is no life energy and so the body is dead.

    The human body is a group of several systems
    If the nervous system stops functioning there is no danger
    Since the nervous system is only user and not the producer of the life energy
    Thus, deep sleep differs from the death.

    In the deep sleep only, the nervous system stops functioning
    All the other ordinary systems are continuously functioning
    In death, all the ordinary systems and nervous system also
    Stop functioning because the Jiiva left and there is no life energy.

    In the womb of the mother the baby is alive
    Since the life energy is directly supplied from the mother
    When the baby comes out all the ordinary systems start functioning
    By taking the milk food and produce the life energy.

    In the awakening state, the nervous system is functioning
    The electrical pulses flow through the nerve wires
    Life energy in the nervous system is consciousness
    It is also called as the awareness or ‘Chaitanyam’.

    The same life energy moves the limbs of the body
    And it is called as mechanical energy
    Consciousness, life energy and mechanical energy are
    One and the same inert electrical energy in different systems.

    When we pass the electricity into a dead body
    The body is not alive for two reasons
    Jiiva, the micro design system has left the body
    By whom only the body restores the original behavior.

    Jiiva is the materialistic subtle body in which
    All the systems exist as minute designs
    This Jiiva is called as the ‘sukshma shariira
    Which leaves this body when all the systems stop.

    Even if you send electrical energy into the dead body
    This Jiiva does not return back because
    The Jiiva is controlled by the order of Ishwara
    Jiiva is inert because he is not independent.

    This subtle body is always embedded with another
    Micro design body of fruits of all actions
    Which Jiiva did in all the previous births
    Called causal body or ‘kaarana shariira’.

    This causal body is the micro draft of
    All the judgements of the Lord given to the Jiiva
    After personal enquiry in the upper world
    Called ‘preta loka’ during ten days after death.

    This causal body is a representative of the Lord
    It is the guiding force of the subtle body everywhere
    These two bodies never separate from each other
    The causal body is called as the writing of the Lord on the forehead.

    This subtle body is called ‘paraa prakruti’ or Jiiva
    It is also called as the ‘chittam’, which stores concepts
    It also identifies the external objects, chittam means
    Storing for the memory and awareness of the objects.

    The grammar says that the word chittam has these two meanings
    The first is called smaranam and the second is called samjnanam
    This Jiiva is called paraa prakruti by Gita
    Which means that Jiiva is the super most creation.

    Mind, intelligence and self-awareness are included
    In the aparaa prakruti by Gita, aparaa means ordinary
    Therefore, Jiiva is prakruti, which means creation
    He is inert and controlled, only Ishwara is the controller.

    Ishwara is in the centre of all the world items
    He is rotating all, Gita says so
    That is the reason why the life energy is not produced
    Even if you pass electricity into the dead body.

    The system and energy associate together
    Produce a special work called life energy
    The system and energy separated are inert
    This is the difference between living beings and non-living beings.

    Actually, living means independent
    And non-living means the controlled objects
    In this sense, Ishwara is only the living being
    Even Jiiva is controlled and is a non-living being or inert.

    The inert matter is one item
    The inert energy, electricity is another item
    The inert energy associated with ordinary systems of human body
    Is called the precious life energy.

    The work produced in the systems by the electricity
    Exists in the living-beings, which is not in the non-living beings
    Therefore, this work differentiates living and non-living in the world
    Such distinction is not present between Jiiva and Ishwara.

    Jiiva is inert because the work is inert
    Jiiva is controlled and has no independence
    Ishwara is the controller of Jiiva and the entire world
    Ishwara is living and this distinction is different from the above.

    When this life energy leaves the body in the death
    It is associated with all qualities of the human body
    Such electricity is associated with a microchip
    Which actually contains all the qualities of the human body.

    This electricity is associated with all the systems present
    In the form of micro designs on the minute microchip
    Therefore, this electricity is also the life energy
    All the qualities will be present as the pulses.

    When the Jiiva leaves the body in the death
    The electricity together with the microchip leaves the body
    This microchip is called the subtle body
    Which diffuses like a gas and so called as prana shariira.

    Therefore, in the death, the electrified gaseous microchip
    Called sukshma shariira leaves the human body, which is very subtle
    Veda explains the death process in which the consciousness
    Along with life energy and a subtle body of qualities exits.

    (Manomayaḥ prāṇa Å›arÄ«ra netā— Veda)

    The microchip contains the design of the entire gross body
    It is like a seed in which the design of all the trees hidden
    The electricity and the microchip are never separated from each other
    Therefore, the Jiiva is always eternal.

    This subtle body called Jiiva can never be seen
    By even the most sophisticated electronic instruments of scientists
    Gita says the same thing and Jiiva leaves the body
    Without the observation of anybody.

    (Vimūḍhā nānupaÅ›yanti – Gita)

    The subtle body when goes to the upper world
    It takes a macro physical body of the same form
    As it existed on this earth, called bhoga shariira
    Which means that it is meant for the enjoyment of the results.

    When the Jiiva goes to the heaven, no need of any food
    God gives him the divine nectar called “Amrutam”
    When Jiiva goes to hell he has to suffer with thirst and hunger
    Then also there is no need of food and water.

    When the Jiiva goes to the middle pitru loka also
    No need of food since God gives somarasa as the food
    Therefore, whatever you offer in the ceremony is a waste
    If you perform the ceremony with that angle.

    The ceremony should be performed with a different real angle
    It consists of praying Ishwara to protect the departed soul
    It also consists of sacrificing the fruit of your work that is money
    To a deserving person, called as Karma phala tyaga by Gita.

    If one does these two things while he is alive
    There is no need of such ceremonies for a liberated soul
    It is better you do your work when you are alive
    Than assigning the same to your son.

    When the person dies the prayer to Ishwara
    May be perfectly done or may be done as a formality
    The deserving person for the sacrifice may not be available
    In such case, the whole ceremony becomes waste.

    Therefore, scholars do both these things while they are alive
    With full interest and get the real deserving person
    Sacrifice to undeserving person is a sin
    The punishment in the hell increases by such futile ceremony.

    Scholars never bother about such ceremonies after death
    They also never bother about the issues present or not
    Veda says that there is no use of these issues
    You must do the prayer and the sacrifice while you are alive.

    (Na prajayā, kiṃ prajayā kariá¹£yāmaḥ— Veda)

    If you have earned the grace of the Lord while you are alive
    No need of somebody earned His grace for you
    Shankara, Meera, Vivekananda etc., did not have issues
    Do you mean that they suffered for food in the upper world?

    Uplift yourself here itself by yourself, Gita says
    Nobody else can help you in the spiritual field
    If you cannot do the sacrifice yourself
    Do you think that your son will sacrifice for yourself?

    The electricity or the microchip or the gross body or the causal body
    Is not Brahman since all these are inert including life and consciousness
    The Ishwara in whom alone the Brahman is hidden is only Brahman
    The Ishwara is the controller of all the above inert items.

    Jiiva is the composite of the three parts
    The inert systems like nervous, respiratory etc.,
    The inert energy that flows in the systems,
    The inert work produced by the association of the above two.

    Whether it is a gross body or subtle body
    All the above three components exist together
    The inert Jiiva can attain some other inert item
    If he pleases the Lord, he can get the same Ishwara.

    Among the pulses one pulse is ‘I’
    If this pulse is connected to the gross body, it is awakening state
    If the pulse does not function, it is the state of deep sleep
    When the pulse is connected to subtle body, it is dream state.

    In the dream state, the nervous system is functioning
    All the pulses are flowing through the nervous system
    These pulses belong to various ideas stored in the brain
    The connection of ‘I’ pulse to the gross body does not exist.

    In the dream state, the pulses in the subtle body
    Which are connected to the previous births also function
    So unexpected dreams appear, which are from the previous births
    These pulses were associated with the subtle body from all the previous births.

    In this dream state, sometimes the Lord also enters and guides
    He takes a body of energy as the pulse, which enters the dream
    In deep sleep, nervous system stops and no pulse is active
    This part of life energy of nervous system is stored.

    When you get up from the deep sleep you feel very happy
    It is due to the extra energy that is stored in the body
    If your sleep is full of dreams all the energy is spent
    Therefore, when you get up the extra energy is not stored.

    A pulse, which takes a point in different ways, is called mind
    Another pulse, which takes the decision on the point, is intelligence
    The pulse ‘I’ is called egoism; the fourth is Jiiva himself
    Who stores all the strong pulses and identifies the objects.

    All these four are called ‘antahkaranas’, the first three are present
    In the category of aparaa prakruti, the fourth one is the Jiiva
    He is called as paraa prakruti or chittam as per Gita
    Chittam brings back the memory and identifies the objects.

    The Jiiva is washed in the hell by strong punishments
    Returns back to this world as a cloth with light scars
    These scars are the qualities called ‘samskaras’
    Which become strong as the child grows to go to hell again.

    Science is the same old logic called “Tarka shastra”
    The old logic is only theoretical but science is experimental
    Old logic fails before science but science fails
    Before the Lord who is the rule maker and is above the rules.

    The gross body may be destroyed after the death
    But the subtle body, which is always associated with the cause-body
    It is never destroyed, If destroyed ‘I’ disappears
    When all the components separate, they merge with the five elements.

    Now, the pot is broken and is mixed with the earth
    The water in the pot is mixed with the sea
    Where is your mud of the pot and where is your water
    The biggest fools desire such salvation.

    It is only the destruction of everything, you do not exist
    What you got? The ice block is converted into water and mixed in the sea
    Can you take out your water and claim it, this is not salvation
    The Lord created and maintained you and you destroy yourself.

    Salvation means, you should exist here and there
    You should be associated with the Lord always
    He is not destroying this world to continue His entertainment
    Are you greater than the Lord to live this entertainment?

    In the state of deep sleep, there is no ‘I’ at all
    The whole nervous system is taking rest and all the pulses are inactive
    In the awakening state, you have superimposed the ‘I’ on the gross body
    In the dream state, you superimposed ‘I’ on the subtle body.

    The state of deep sleep is full of darkness and ignorance
    In the awakening state also, you can withdraw the ‘I’ from the gross body
    You can restrict the ‘I’ to the consciousness only
    Now you can feel that you are the consciousness
    In this state, the nervous system is functioning
    And the electricity is flowing in the nerves without any pulse.

    In this state, you have disconnected the ‘I’ pulse from gross body
    And connected it to the consciousness
    Very good, you have understood that you are the dog
    And not the fox, but what have you achieved?
    You are not the Lion be sure of it.

    The Advaita philosopher superimposes Ishwara on consciousness
    And now he thinks that he is the Ishwara
    Let him superimpose a hill on the consciousness
    And now let him think that he is the hill
    If you superimpose Brahman you are Brahman.

    Brahman is beyond imagination of anybody
    You are aware of the consciousness that is Brahman
    In that case you are aware of the Brahman
    Therefore, consciousness is not Brahman
    The name of the consciousness is Brahman
    So, you are called as Brahman, no objection.

    Shankara’s aim was completely different
    His aim was to change the Buddhists
    The Advaita philosophers took the theory of Shankara as real
    They are continuously misled.

    You may have mental peace and satisfaction
    But you become lazy and you sit without effort
    If you want to understand Shankara perfectly
    Remember that He swallowed the molten lead
    Which neither His disciples swallowed nor you can.
