Chiranjeevi: immortal , the 7 Rishis [sometimes spelled: chiranjivi]
Purusha: He who has no name. become Chiranjeevi
Mind, {separate to worship at a distance] or merge with
Brahman [Chiranjeevi] as experienced by the immortals] … like being the sun
Beyond initial ‘enlightenment’ [cosmic consciousness] it is a matter of clearing sight of what one knows ones Self to be. entering dark cave analogy as eyes adjust.
Katha Upanishad Third Valli verse 10. ‘Beyond the senses are their objects.’ senses, objects, mind, intellect, great self, unmanifest, Purusha
Katz, Vernon. The Upanishads (Tarcher Cornerstone Editions) Penguin Publishing Group.
Yama wanted Nachiketas to ask another question … can only answer it by facilitating awakening to that level of immortality. some say He did not answer the question, but he did in the only way it could really be answered.
‘the entire universe is my expression’ befriend the devata … the laws of nature
yagyas reorganize karma
Purusha size of thumb in center of body… what that really means… not speaking of emotional heart… heart cave
the Upanishads reveal level of unity within everything
It is through the light of God that the eyes see and the ears hear MMY
upanishads reveal the ‘location’ of the Absolute at the basis of all aspects of life
live the Purusha value
Upanishads : Absolute in terms of, approached step by step, from every angle of the relative. Absolute taught in terms of the relative. as if absolute speaking to relative in relatives terms.
Brahman includes experience of both fullnesses together as one fullness
Brahma Sutras gives understanding of experience of Brahman Consciousness
Agni: Aa to Ka is every object in creation, that [all wholenesses] wholeness is Indra [“King of the Gpds”]
what it means to ‘experience everything’
Ananda Mayi Ma said she understands everything {pure knowledge] and also that she is a small child and you have to explain everything to her [memorization of facts, etc.].
need relative to enter Brahman
longing for Brahman brings forth the teacher or teacher brings forth Brahman.. works both ways.
yet karma takes one to the teacher and karma takes one away. so steady hand on the rudder
sound of the versus enlivens the versus within
Pashya……see
‘It is my responsibility to protect Mt Soma…our people here… even if they do not see what i am protecting them from. Rakshasas work through people in this age of Kali Yuga. Easy to see the Divinity within individuals. Not always easy to concurrently not overlook the Rakshasa within them. My life struggle perhaps has been my lack of willingness to believe that if I show my care for them, they will not allow the Rakshasa to gain control and act out. Big mistake but one I have learned I must face wide eyed … not always so easy to do’… love

Katha Upanishad… Immortality
two levels/meanings [and more] of attaining Brahman [Brahma Chaithanya and immortality, Chiranjeevi]…see last 2 verses of Katha Upanishad
Like all things Upanishads and Brahma Sutras can be viewed/interpreted on many levels [knowledge is structured in consciousness]
‘Entire universe is my expression of life’
Living/realizing ‘He who has no name” is you… and God is beyond, i.e. unknowable
the world is as we are.. it is your mirror

Scientific American current issue essentially says [as we have been saying] that big bang theory is not correct. James Webb telescope confirms that.
“Wisdom is what’s left after we’ve run out of personal opinions.”

Naming: Used and Misused: e.g. “Energy”, Bigot, etc.

Learning how to ‘feel’: why people love their pets
when words distract
It is the ‘energy’ [what you are doing with your energy] more than who you are or your actions.:
chakras… psychophysiological centers
subconsciousmind = chit
Who you are speaks so loudly I can’t hear what you’re saying. Ralph Waldo Emerson’s famous quote is as accurate and meaningful today as it was back in the 1800’s. Many of us know it in it’s more generalized form: actions speak louder than words.

only 1000 Vedic pandits

nobody would believe cell phone, computer, airplane etc would work until somebody built it. let’s finish building the enlightened city

Life’s deepest meaning palpable, lively and exquisite at our Mount Soma home.
Hanuman Jayanthi and Kumbabishekam
How fitting that today, May 14 is both Hanumans birthday and Mothers day followed by Mount Soma Kumbabishekam May 15-17. Though physics is King of the universe, the personified value, the heart, is His Queen who gives life its meaning. Like all things, even the wind is a complex mechanic of physics. Yet be it a turbulent storm or a gentle breeze upon ones face, the winds deepest meaning is how its movement touches our hearts. That is the Queen of the universe, the personified value… that is what gives it all meaning, just as when we think of another person, it is not the physics of their presence that gives them meaning but rather the personified feeling of their soul. When we think of another, that is what we think of. The Mother, is the heartfelt soul of the universe and all within it. Vedic Knowledge encompasses Knowledge of both the King and His Queen who gives Him meaning.
These past days in preparation for this weeks events has been a busy busy whirlwind for us all here at Mount Soma. As I moved from station to station, touching base with our numerous teams, what was even more lively than the turbulent winds of our hustle and bustle was the heart that carried us: Devotion, the Hanuman value so full. The Root of Devotion is Love carried by the winds of existence, Vayu. Hanuman, pure devotion, the son of the wind, the Kshethra palaka (official guardian) of Mount Soma, caring us all, is so palpable these days at Mount Soma.
Jai Hanumanji!
Sri Shivaya Namaha
Sri Matre Namaha
Happy Mothers Day!

Inner and Outer Spheres of Influence
“Of all the liars in the world, sometimes the worst are our own fears.”
RUDYARD KIPLING
I would say of all the liars in the world, the worst are our programmings, particularly the ones we wrongly believe we no longer serve.
L.M. MONTGOMERY
“People think what they think and do what they do and there is nothing you can do about it.” Sally Jessy Rafael
so many love spirituality and think they totally believe in it, but when the rubber meets the road, they revert back to old programming. So who or what is really their “God”?
“I am out of here” when things get tough is a common path of the habitual failure.
We favor what is familiar over what is better.
it is a well known fact that the lives of many collapse after winning the lotto. spheres of influence
understand how your own head works.. not so easy to do..
“Love begins by taking care of the closest ones – the ones at home.”
MOTHER TERESA
Addiction to drugs, and screen time
Dopamine highs from too much screen time
How physics went astray. Einstein loved Vedic literature and based ideas upon that not realizing that much was in the Absolute, not the relative.
“You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him.”

The global mind, The frame, Patanjali, karma, perception, and prana
Life is all about the frame it’s all in how do you frame it?
Every interaction is a long-term goal every thought
we do not really perceive. we project onto
Existence too is all about framing… vastu, set theory, field theory… how the universe was created and sustained… all done with mirrors…
What is a set theory? What is a field?: the field you project is the reality you create for yourself… every experience then confirms for you what you believe to be true… the color glasses you are wearing. Set theory. Filed Theory
’You gift is also your challenge’ Like many people, my gift is that I see the good, the divinity, in others. My challenge then is that I overlook their shortcomings until they come back to bite me.
free will or predetermination?
karma + prana = The Mind
How to heal the planet… the Ancient Secret revealed.

“Circumstances don’t make the man, they only reveal him to himself.”
EPICTETUS
“Know how to listen, and you will profit even from those who talk badly.”
PLUTARCH
Blurring or conflating Vedic studies with religion, is a big mistake The Veda is the vessel that holds all fields of knowledge all of life all of existence
diversity of thought, communication/communion vs polarization..judgement vs understanding… friendship
1/3 of 18-25 year olds believe in higher power. my question: higher than what? what do they mean by a ‘higher power’. I believe it is not what I mean by higher power. I too do not believe in what they mean by it.

e.g eating bugs …. overriding intuition with intellect example… little kids see what they can ge the youngest to do

Philosophy, in so many cases, is a disassociated perspective, which is essentially ridiculous e.g. the evil deceiver
93 trillion dollar green deal bill…. how would you like it if i told you to must personally borrow a billion dollars to go green?
Lockdowns, border, vaccine, etc. etc.
Humanities challenge, “don’t bother me with the facts. My mind is made up.”
God filling your heart: deepest meaning
Why do you think it is called “Artificial” Intelligence
The two minds: Intuition feelings, emotions reason, thought in the intellect essential knowledge.
Artificial intelligence morality, the soul natural law, what Elon Musk doesn’t know
“intuitively obvious”… a phrase from mathematics.
the link between intellect and feeling… intuition, reason
Trusting your Gut Versus the emperor has no clothes
an over emphasis on one level of the mind…why people are neurotic and even crazy
disintegration of link between thoughts and depth of the soul
firstly, what the soul is must be understood.
human history is about making rules to live by before understanding what life really is…. what existence really is.
Superficial self-esteem
intuition, gut feeling, reasoning, intellect
18,000 cows died in fire… food processing plant fires etc. all over the country… people wondering why..
AI and the crossbow short story when 9 years old
no drop of love is ever wasted MMY
Who was it that said we have become a nation of whiners I believe it was perhaps Senator John McCain
social fabric
what you think matters little, how you feel about those thoughts makes all the difference
What you feel is what you really believe but these days we have lost the ability to accurately feel what is really there
e.g. when i taught hands on healing… the art of palpation…
Get people to dissociate from their gut feelings. That can be systematically accomplished. Start with masks for example and continue with the series of issues like transgender etc.

go to YOUTUBE and type: KGB AGENT 1985> Yuri Bezmenov
Soviet defector in the 80s spoke of ideological subversion is already established in the west and like a cancer it would grow to become in fact what it is today
It was the Soviet strategy to de stabilize the nation of America: to weaken at the knees the strongest nation.
yoga sutras, stability of physiology, mind, soul
Life’s foundation: health is wholeness
intellect/intuitive ntegration: gut feeling raised to refined state of awareness.
The United States is so strong that Russia and China both knew the only way to overcome that Strength was to undermine instability erode it
Self actualization; oneness to separateness; natural part of maturation process; manipulated as rebellion the a counterculture
Done by Americans to Americans thanks to lack of moral standards. These are just quotes of the Soviet defector.
COUNTERINTUITIVE strategy
connecting the dots
the world is not as we are being lead to believe…
Contrary to his denials, it finally turned up Biden, ordered the Mira Lago raid
FBI planting spies in Catholic and other churches is a horrific and direct assault on the integrity of the American culture
Doubling down on stupid
strength blows in the wind. power is in the roots. Alexander the Great knew this and put local in charge of nations he conquered
woke counterculture
Counter intuitive is considered clever, insightful, and wise by the counterculture
The justification is that if you can follow the contorted beliefs, derive from counterintuitive, thinking that means you are fashionably smart. It means you’re clever, ‘Means you have deep and profound insights that normal human beings aren’t even capable of relating to which makes you a super human type
