What must be done by the soul after leaving the body?

The Other Side Of Reality – Liberation, Freedom!

Body is purified by food and eating habits. Bringing it to single point concentration purifies mind. Speech is purified by recitation of the single seed mantra and actions are purified by act of giving or considering all action to be the will of god. The dawning of meditation is proof of the purification, achieved by perfection of concentration on unwavering single point, for any length of time at a stretch. Detachment of the adherence of the consciousness with the senses is the first freedom experienced by us, enlightening us that this body with senses was only a means to EXPERIENCE ONESELF. Curbing the feeling of attachment to these is possible only by becoming an observer, thus the need to practice this in real life. Life, death and all the activities are the process of purification of body, mind, speech, and activities preformed with the intention of achieving pleasure or joy OF EXPERIENCING ONESELF. This desire was for partial and limiting temporary pleasure of the senses. Desire is craving and attachment that makes the consciousness enter the womb, thus overcoming this is the only way to avoid future birth. Nature provided the necessary requirements that were needed, as its function is to satisfy the most intense desire of the omnipotent (consciousness); we being the part of him/her our desires are thus fulfilled.

Using the knowledge gained in life and concentrating all our efforts in achieving single pointed unwavering stability of guiding our consciousness, we arrive at the state of meditation. But to stay in meditative state for long we have to accept this new awareness and feel comfortable with it, usually we pass into unconsciousness as we detach our consciousness from the external senses and wakeup to the dream state.

Here there are two types of dreamers one who remembers these dreams and the other who does not. The former person does so because he arrived into the state consciously and the other slipped there unconsciously. What really happened? The former concentrated on the feelings that were changing, as the sense organs detached from the consciousness without need for feedback from the sense, this can be done very easily by watching the breath or paying attention to the internal sound called “anahatha nada” the un struck sound continuously streaming, tune our mantra recitation with this and accepting that all that is happening is within the internal universe and we have disconnected with the external world, this is possible only if we learn the art of letting things go rather than being attached to them.

The first thing that happens is the sense of freedom from the captivity of our own memory. Next we gain confidence and conviction by logic and reasoning, negating all the duality in the manifested world we purify our misunderstandings of things we interacted with in ordinary life. We come to see the similarity of the void (free of all concepts) with our mind spontaneous birth of light and sound as thoughts and feelings. The mind looks similar to the vast empty void and consciousness as a point. Which can understand (absorb) any one thing at a given time. NOW WE SEE THE NEED TO BECOME ONE POINTED! This point is the intersection of the 5 powers, which is similar to the reflection in the mirror; the best reflector is pure water! THUS THE NEED FOR PURIFICATION! To understand anything we need to continuously keep watching it with unwavering concentration! THUS THE NEED FOR PERFECTION! Experiencing this as the complete self is enlightenment THUS THE MATURITY! This changes the cycle of the mind from dullness and activity. Perfecting this we come to a stage when the consciousness expands to engulf the entire void. This matures to develop automatically the feeling of emptiness that is compassion.

Contemplating on this remove all ignorance of separation and fructifies into the wisdom which is not different from that of the cosmic wisdom. Wisdom cannot be differentiated as individuals as all wisdom put together is the body of the omnipotent. Understanding this leads to compassion. WISDOM CANNOT BE SEEN IT IS ONLY EXPERIENCED! This is one of reasons we cannot explain with words “GOD” Memory is the reason that we fail to experience the whole and feel the sense of incompleteness this in turn creates craving and desires. Thus the requirement to exhaust all memory, the accumulated experience held captive by us, we treasure it so dearly because our identity depends on it, and without it we are the complete omnipotent universal reality. Our elders enlightened of this behavior of humans stressed for following the concept of god defining it; as the supreme goal even though they knew that consciousness itself was the ultimate reality! This was for enabling us to attach ourselves to this and overcome the prolonged feeling of being trapped in this world of death and birth.

The completion of the birth (a cycle of creation) or death (un-manifestation of anything in a cycle) gives us joy of a particular type, a state of bliss, of achievement, of freedom from all desires and problems. The way un-manifestation creates joy is with the understanding that what was not liked or false is no more tormenting us and we are free to do the next creation or activity. What is left is pure consciousness of existence with out any concept. This satisfaction of achievement is the same as feeling of oneness with the whole Universal self (reality) or supreme bliss without duality.

But more often than ever the bubble of joy burst as soon as we become enlightened that this is not the complete, or the ultimate. Because when we look inside and the past memory all we see is the things that we have consumed are things we have stored without sharing or recycling leading to decay and disease (food, Information, Knowledge and wisdom).

The soul purifies itself as the body, mind, speech, and actions are purified, and consciousness floats in the state of meditation for longer durations, enjoying the bliss of no thoughts is a state of existing in emptiness! Accepting that, all differentiation is the same pure compassion, attached with likes and dislikes developed in this life due to incomplete understanding, which in turn was caused by limiting our selves by the feeling of separation. Freedom or liberation is removing this habit of accumulation. Just look at all the nature’s phenomenon & disasters; the power of this force has the potential of destroying the whole manifested universe. This is triggered by collective consciousness. Experiencing it completely and letting go do this! It is always available to us whenever we want to experience it SO WHY STORE (ACCUMULATE). 

What must be done by the soul after leaving the body?

But first we have to know that the time has arrived. Some obvious signs individually or separately may be experienced, but this definitely does not mean death is near if they are experienced as normal everyday life things, these are experienced specifically for a duration of time, fear due to no reason, normal senses do not function as normal say taste disappear, sight and color fade, sense of touch and sound diminish, normal secretion of bodies glands and systems misbehave. Disturbance occurs in sleeping pattern. Normal relationship with loved ones turn disturbed, things that were pleasant previously no longer inspire joy, finding fault in everything, demanding the attention of all loved ones, loss of sense of time, the pets animals behave differently to our actions and words these are some the effects that may be experienced, But Those Mentioned Here Are Not final.

It is always better to be prepared for all situations that we know are inevitable. So acquiring all the information, knowledge and wisdom related to the supreme reality available in the present is what is needed for all humans. Do the necessary actions required for gaining proficiency. Yes it is possible to stay alive for as long as we like. The best way to cheat death is to intensely think of living, and craving for all the things that we are yet to experience in this life.

One of the most important things is to be able to remember our guru! To re-establish the bond of interdependence, this is necessary because we may pass through the stage of becoming disconnected with our knowledge and wisdom at birth, they are the only reliable guides whom we can trust.

All those who do not know their guru need not be worried at this moment as the thought of our masters or desire to be helped by someone, is sufficient be transcended to his presence, the guru’s or masters have the responsibility of guiding us through life and beyond. This bond is needed to be developed and strengthened either in this or one of our previous lives, not meeting them here in this life is of least significance. EVERYONE HAS such a master or gurus, as being born in the human species are not possible with out their guidance. The only problem is to remember him / her at the time of death, in this life. We will definitely meet him/her after leaving this realm.

If leaving the body was not experienced consciously, then as soon as we experience the signs of being out of the body, we first need to accept that we are no more connected with the living. Most people my pass into this state unconsciously, yet some may experience this consciously. This is necessary to remove the feeling of being confused. The most obvious signs are we feel a sense of freedom and lightness all our physical defects are no longer experienced as lacking their normal functions, this means that physical disabilities are limited to this manifested world only, thus sudden ability to hear will seem different if we were deaf in this life, or the sudden ability of seeing light if we were blind in this life. Interaction with the living is not reciprocated. We cannot converse with them. But most of our pets will respond! Not as recognition towards us, many animals especially dogs have a capability to sense presence of astral bodies as their sense organs are developed in this way because of redirecting the extra power not utilized for gaining intellectual development as compared to humans.

If leaving the body was experienced consciously, the soul will automatically think of pure clear transparent light negating all the rest instantaneously, this is possible only if they have developed themselves to the required level. Recognizing the abode of the absolute he is instantly taken there and will recognize and accept the absolute. There are possibilities that the master comes and holds our hand enabling one to instantly feel rejoice at the meeting, he will give up his body with out any struggle with ease.

For those who experience untimely death due to accidents, or natural causes of nature, the forces of nature will guide them as soon as the soul accepts its new experience in the changed state. Recognize only the clear light and follow it to the source…. To become one with it remove the feeling of separation.
