current ‘language’ of modern physics is too awkward
always an incarnation of Vishnu around… duality requires two poles to spin around
10 avatars of Vishnu
Imbalance is a vacuum
is life really bliss? or is it really suffering?
Body of glass or of mud?
UFOs AND THE VEDA
golden age just around the corner now… 2025
sustained commitment to attain real and lasting changes
“The Millionaire Next Door”
too much pressure from every angle… internet, friends, news, tv….
“who’ll stop the rain?” it is in the Veda but who is listening?
Should the US supreme court intervene if justice system/judges politicized?
The enlightened age will occur when all religions are recognized as dedicated to the same one thing,
while realizing that the integrity of each nation is determined by the laws of nature unique to that land,
while honoring those not of that land to remain dedicated to their heritage while respecting the integrity and traditions of the land in which they reside,
while also honoring the depth of understanding of the nature of life, existence, science, and spirituality from their and all angles of all approaches/ perspectives,
and knowing that all is unified in harmony and mutual respect when held insightfully and honorably yet remaining strong in the harmonious integrity of their own birthright.

secrets of the fish bowl; also, rudraksha and why herbs work
short term vision…
fish bowl on all levels… tsunami, etc., when a fish bowl is not attended to, fish do poorly, algae grows, gravel dirty, plants do poorly, etc. same thing with global ‘consciousness’… it affects everything from politics, to relationships to weather.

The year of Anger and how it plays out; also, Ancient Secret to Hatha Yoga flexibility and a few Vedic verses explored
Upcoming year predictions are self-evident from watching the news and taking a step back. [as well as jyotish]. 2024: Our planet’s year of Anger, chaos, and conflict in all areas of life will continue throughout the year and well into 2025 BUT it is a clearing out process for good times to follow. The world will then wake up to natural law, wisdom, and in-sight. It is amazing to witness the degree to which mass mentality is so easily manipulated. Yet the grassroots of humanity are always closer the Mother Nature. Wisdom will emerge. Just hang in there for now! Think if it as a tint in the color of the water of the ‘fish bowl’ that will clear. So, watch your anger!
Global events will be evaluated based upon one’s bias. Think about it. What happens in Ukraine, Israel, elections, climate change, borders, etc. etc.
Whatever happens, half the world will see it as great, the other half will see it as disaster. But the big picture is that we are in the phase transition. That is a time when things bubble up in chaos as we have been seeing. But after the chaos of 2024/2025, we will be on the right course. Time and Mother Nature will let us know what that right course is.
Hatha yoga secret to flexibility revealed.

Panditji and Lakshmi will be attending a world peace havan in Varanasi, India in January. I was invited to attend but my Mount Soma duties require me to stay at home. ‘Would have loved to be able to attend.

Deep dive into the Shiva Sutras here. Then some practical reflections. How much things would change if people first understood life, then lived accordingly.
karma + prana = mind
there was no beginning
without relative, there is no Brahman
why our worlds intersect…
Brahman is known from the Upanishads alone!!!!
can also see Brahma Sutras 3.3.3 [extricating of nectar] and 2.1.10 [form, taste, etc. not to be found in Pradhana]
devata value defines the process
Shiva Parvati
the fabulous knowledge in the Shiva Sutra and Brahma Sutra

Reflection on Current Events:
When we think of the world situations, let’s think of the children first. Maybe that would help us see things most clearly. Perhaps then, we would think, as number one, to end violence wherever we see it. I don’t know, but maybe economic sanctions make more sense than bombing raids. Doesn’t it? Funding violence doesn’t make all that much sense, does it? I imagine weapons as self-defense is necessary at times. But wasn’t it even Napoleon that said that money is the essential ingredient to war.. something like that. Should we not think first of funding wars but rather think of defunding aggression?
When I think of the world, my heart goes out to the innocent children. Yet it seems so many think first of hate, judgement, retaliation, and money. What about the innocent children? Things would change so much if we first thought of the innocent children. That certainly should transcend greed, power, politics, racism, hatred, judgement, retaliation, and so many vile masters that seem to take precedence in global decision making.
Perhaps we could take some well informed time to reflect deeply and thoughtfully upon the following topics in the context of what is best for our children:
Ukraine/Russia
Israel/Hamas
Iran
North Korea
the world is not as we have been lead to believe
cost of essentials up 18% since Biden took office
wind mills and climate change
electric cars: the reality, pragmatics, and the dream
oil production currently way up in USA
auto insurance double and tripling
hunter biden
AI. artificial intelligence pros and cons
climate change, what is the reality?
Nicola Tesla—unlimited positive energies in our planet.. the earth
What are our priorities?

if thousands of years of history has proven one thing, it is that current approaches to world peace do not work: clean the fish bowl is the only answer: Mt Soma is dedicated to that; residents gain liberation in the process

‘bounded’ works here in place of ‘small’:
scripture, cognition, teaching, movement,
both eternal and changing
Maharishi: ‘These are Brahma Sūtras (sūtras about Brahman), not Jagat sūtras (sūtras about the world).’
you are Brahma
“I am Brahma[n]”
The World Reveals Brahman
pashya: ’see’ and early Brahma Chaitanya [Brahman Consciousness]
K + A = KA, manifest [consonates] are rooted in unbounded [unmanifest]
without the observer, there is no pillow
Ramayana in the Physiology:
Ravana: specificity [space, time, etc.] ultimately a misunderstanding about reality, Rama restores Absolute in awareness… why Lanka is so beautiful
projection/perception: our sensory functions project a ‘reality’ onto the Absolute; Brahman is all of this together: a level of consciousness, not a ‘thing’. point of view creates ones ‘reality’ [e.g. science, religion, business, music, etc.]; is physiological as well determined by karma as education, heritage, etc. [dynamics of structure of physiology], can view from any perspective and is fine if it ultimately meets all other perspectives
Bhagavad Gita 9.8: curving back on myself I create over and over again
Trimutri and Prakritis: structure, function, purpose:
what defines silence [Shiva] is sound [Parvati], everything is creation is Parvati [Prakriti], She is every structure that defines every space. Parvati is Prakriti of Shiva
Vishnu dynamism, function is Lakshmi… Prakriti of Vishnu:dynamism is Lakshmi:function
Brahma Knowledge Prakriti is Saraswati Organizing Power [Plan] … House has a function but how to use it is a plan. Brahma holds the 4 Veda… logic, plan
Purusha is all of them together: they are all the same thing seen from different perspectives/realities
Ram is Brahm… Totality… The embodiment of Chaitanya [the Absolute]… the 50% of Vishnu: the embodiment of the other parts, the other 50%…. takes all values and puts them together in their full value in wholeness
This is full; that is full. from Fullness comes Fullness Upanishad from Shukla Yajur Veda
My universe is my self
Atma is subjective, personal, individual: yet in a wholistic or collective manner/way.
experience atma as the field of sensory perception
Silence, or space, is found as Shiva.
He Who Has No Name observes without bias the illusion
Consciousness is Brahman (Prajnanam Brahma).
Upanishad 3.1.3

Subtlety Within Words is Everything Aham Vishvam My universe is myself [Brahman Viewpoint] … vs I am the universe. [Relative Viewpoint; Taittiriya Upanishad 3.10 Brahman Consciousness [Brahmi Chetana] in a Nutshell
Pragyanam Brahma— fully awake consciousness [knowledge] is Brahman
God’s Will Manifests through you, as you. People think of the Light of God [God’s Will] as something outside in themselves. The Light of God emerges within people…. through their hearts through their determination through the light in their eye, through a commitment to the Purity underlying their ideals. God’s will emerges within you, as you, as your thoughts, as your feelings…. the clearer the vessel, the fuller the expression. God’s Will is found within you, as you. It does not lie outside yourself but rather IS your True Self.: Atma Support of Nature flows within you. We have only to clear the vessel.
The Gold is in your backyard, i.e. within you.
the physiology is the veda… shareer
Why the enlightened are not easy to understand:
what is “this’? What is “that”? In enlightenment, what was ‘this’ becomes ‘that’ and what was ‘that’’ becomes ‘this’. God is closer than people think.
For him who does not know being [the transcendent] what can the hymns of Veda accomplish?
what lies beyond [not born of] the mind… cosmic intelligence… foundation of natural thoughts… in harmony with nature.
knowledge/experience
Consciousness is Brahman (Prajnanam Brahma).
Aitareya Upanishad 3.1.3
“Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.”
