  • Episode 362: 081 - Vivekachoodamani - Verses 272 to 276 - Give up Vasanas - Part 3 - 26 August 2019
    Talk 81: Verses 272-276
    The three types of vasanas are compared to iron shackles that impede a mumukshu. Body identification or dehatma bhava are the prison walls and bars that have to be broken through to get liberation. The fragrance of Pure Consciousness is compared to that of sandalwood and is as though obscured by the dust of innumerable vasanas which have to be removed completely for a clear realisation of the Absolute Truth.

    Talk 80 - Verses 271-272
    This talk continues the section of giving up the three main types of vasanas; deha, loka, shastra vasana which are elaborated further in these verses. The seeker must strive to overcome these vasanas through self-effort because even though one may have intellectual knowledge, the intuitive understanding that I am Brahman hasn’t arisen.

    Panchavaktraha: One who has five faces. The five faces of Lord Shiva are are Sadyojaata, Vāmadeva, Aghora, Tatpurusha & Eeshāna . With these five faces the Lord does five greed deeds. These five faces have five separate forms also they are known as Panchabramha.
    The story of Lord Shiva getting the 5 faces while watching the Apsara Tilottama is told by Lord Shiva himself in Anushashana Parva of Mahabharata. Lord Shiva says that it is just to show the power of Yoga:
    तिलोत्तमा नाम पुरा ब्रह्मणा योषिदुत्तमा ।
    तिलं तिलं समुद्धृत्य रत्नानां निर्मिता शुभा ।।
    साभ्यगच्छत मां देवि रूपेणाप्रतिमा भुवि ।
    प्रदक्षिणं लोभयन्ती मां शुभे रुचिरानना ।।
    यतो यतः सा सुदती मामुपाधावदन्तिके ।
    ततस्ततो मुखं चारु मम देवि विनिर्गतम्।।
    तां देदृक्षुरहं योगाच्चतुर्मूर्तित्वमागतः ।
    चतुर्मुखश्च संवृत्तॊ दर्शयन योगमात्मनः।।
    In days of yore, a blessed woman was created by Brahman, called Tilottama, by culling grains of beauty from every beautiful object in the universe. One day, that lady of beautiful face, unrivalled in the universe for beauty of form, came to me, O goddess, for circumambulating me but really compelled by the desire of tempting me. In whatever direction that lady of beautiful teeth turned, a new face of mine instantly appeared. All those faces of mine became agreeable to look at. Thus, in consequence of the desire of beholding her, I became four-faced, through Yoga-puissance, Thus, I showed my high Yoga-power in becoming four- faced.

    Talk 79 - Verses 267-270
    These verses are about giving up the vasanas which do not allow our actions to transform our sense of finite Self to a realized Self. We are reminded how the jiva accumulates, destroys and prevents the limited Self from realising the True Self. The talk concludes with Verse 270 introducing the three types of vasanas which have to put aside by our effort

  • Episode 358: 051 of 108 Names of Lord Shiva : Somaha - Who is the deity Soma
    Somaha: One who is always together with umā .
    Soma also means the deity of the divine herb somalatā which gives immortality through Soma-rasa
    सोमेन सोममाराध्यं पीत्वा शेषं शिवस्य तं
    जानामि सम्यक् तं सोमं शिवं शंभुं महेश्वरम्
    sōmēna sōmamārādhyaṃ pītvā ṡēṣaṃ ṡivasya taṃ
    jānāmi samyak taṃ sōmaṃ ṡivaṃ ṡaṃbhuṃ mahēṡvaram
    Soma is to be worshipped by using soma after drinking the soma which was offered to Shiva. I now know clearly that the soma is none other than Shiva Shambu Maheshwara.
    Soma also means moon . Moon is one of the eight forms of lord Shiva and hence he is called soma. Lord Shiva is the greatest giver of bliss and moon is also a source of bliss and hence Lord Shiva is called Soma . This name is also praised in the vedas
    नम : सोमाय च रुद्राय च namah sōmāya ca rudrāya ca

  • Episode 356: 077 - Vivekachoodamani - Verses 258 to 261 - Verses on contemplation - Part 3 - 23 July 2019
    Talk 77 - Verse 258-261
    This talk asserts the nature of Pure Consciousness as the ultimate cause of the universe having no cause for itself and beyond cause and effect,
    These verses talk about the paradigm shift from body to Consciousness, that pure Consciousness which is free from all modifications. This is done poetically through analogies to shift our identification when the mind goes through ups and downs and pairs of opposite.

  • Episode 355: 050 of 108 Names of Lord Shiva : Yagnamayaha - Whose nature is Yagna
    Yagnyamayaha: One who is an Embodiment of Yagnya - Sacred Sacrifice. Yagnya is the central in the Vedic culture. It purifies the environment, strengthens the Devatas or Phenomenal forces through the ahutis offered, integrates the mind of the performer, brings everyone together. All this is most auspicious. Yajnya sustains the creation. Its not polluting.
    Yajna symbolically means the co-operative endeavour for a selfless cause.
    There are also pancha mahayajnas which are mentioned in our scriptures as our duty to replenish the environment for all the harm we are causing to it by our very existence.
    Lord Shiva is Yajnamayaha because all these are most auspicious.
