Duty is divine, Work is Worship - Karma Yoga




Doing one's duty itself is Yoga,
Karthvyam Yoga Uchyathe,
This is Rationale of Karma Yoga,
Union via Altruistic Action !

Vice Admiral Nelson's words were,
" England expects every man to do his Duty "
Its meaning was clear to all,
As work is worship and duty, divine.


Result of Karma Yoga is far,
Actualising via It is difficult
Philosophic principles are hard to grasp
Hence, Intellectual Love, Vibhakti, is noblest.

Rugged path to the Unmanifest, Jnana,
Is full of knowledgeable sorrow.
Avyaktahi Gathir Dukham,
So embrace Universal Love.

Intellectuality without Love is madness,
Love without Intellectuality is superstition.
Both integrated will yield Intellectual Love,
Et Amor Iintegrate is an Indian concept.

We have  two types of duties,
Duty unto Caesar and Duty unto Self.
Duties, worldly and divine.
And we have to do both effectively.

The Caesar of the outer world,
Must be given  all that  is lawfully his
At the same time, we have to strive,
Fot Self Actualisation, which is the Goal.

In Silence divine we have to climb,
From our own earths into our heavens,
We should stop ratiocinating,
And go deep within ourselves. 


Life alone is the field of Yoga,
Not a blissful Beyond.
Practical life, with all its dangers,
Is our field,and we are gong to win.

Yoga is the Art of  Self Finding,
An integration at seven levels of Being.
Excellence in Action = Yoga,
So be thou a Yogi, Tasmat Yogi Bhava !

Dharma is Not Religion




When Russell attacked the concept of God,
Aurobindo was asked why.
He said " I cannot answer the strictures of Russell,
Because such a Semitic concept was never mine".

Dharma does not mean  Religion,
Dharma means an Enlightenment system,
With Enlightenment as its Goal,
With esoteric instructions how to.

"Through the window of Science", said Mahesh Yogi,
We see the Dawn  of the Age of Enlightenment."
TM is a method of  Scientific  Enlightenment,
And cannot be called a Scientific Religion,

So it is with Buddhism & Hinduism,
Both cannot be called as Religions,
As they are both Enlightenment systems.
With Nirvana as the Goal of Life.

The greatest Bliss is Divya Rathi,
Intercourse with the Absolute Self
Other enjoyments before thisi Supreme Bliss,
Are like light flies before  the Sun

It has to be so, as He is defined
As Rasa Swaroopa, Delight Personified
Why did the One become the  Many ?
For Fun, Rasa, Raso Vai Sahah !

Sanskrit for Enlightenment is Nirvana,
Which in Buddhist terms means Release,
From the Eternal Cycle of Recurrence,
And in Hindu terms, Merger into Brahman !


Equal Vision of Enlightenment Systems,
Is the real Sarva Dharma Samabhava.
Enlightenment systems should be fostered,
For , they alone can save the world !

India is  the Land of Dharma,
This is the land where Vedas and Upanishads,
First saw  the Light and where,
Infinity, Zero and Decimals took birth.

She is the Guru of all nations,
With Her Redeeming Philosophy,
She will lead all nations to World Peace !
And Intellectual Love will reign supreme.

Another Equation, World = Family..




The Precessional Cycle of 25920 years
Has been computed by Great Geometer,
And expressed as Thy Will be done,
As in Heaven, so on Earth.

On Earth,as it is in Heaven,
As Above , so Below,
Is the Law of Correspondences,
As the Celestial influences the Terrestrial.

All are brethren and  all religions,,
Are so many radii of One Circle,
Designed to lead Ṁan from Life's Circumference,
To the Central Light, the Absolute Self !

Ecumenism and Syncretism,
Sarva Dharma Samabhava,
Is the Child of both,
Gnosticism and Indian Philosophy !

The Equation, World = Family,
Vasudha Eva Kudumbakam,
Was voiced in India long ago
That we are all brethren.

When Jews were persecuted all over,
India welcomed them with open arms.
Love and mutual respect hold absolute sway,
As these two nations showed by example !

No Crusades, no Clash of Civilizations,
And Zion became India's close ally.
The Two Mothers of religions,
Have tremendous similarities.

Old Testament are similar to Vedas,
Kabalah is the Western Yoga.
Both are intellectual races,
Science and Philosophy are their forte.
