Meditative state “Turiya” continued.

Meditative state “Turiya” continued.

Meditative state “Turiya” is said to have been achieved only when we can stay in this undefined state for any length of time, in the beginning there may be just glimpses of it. These tend to become more frequent, and next it stays there for a short period, only when it becomes continuous we can say we are in the state of Turiya, Meditative state, the state of never ending bliss has been reached, this bliss is without any definition and co relationship with anything either with words or its meaning, neither with its taste, smell, sight, feeling, nor sound as all these will only mean that we are still in the level of senses and not in the plane of spiritual awareness! Until then we are only in the process of getting there.

 

That is why we where always saying meditation dawns on us it cannot be forcefully acquired except during hypnotic sessions controlled not by us but by the conductor of the show. Yes, we can or may say that god may be hypnotizing us! This is really expanding our space or vision from the limits of our definition and awareness to the unlimited; we become the observer of everything in short, No interaction just observation.

Thus we will see the design of the creator that if memory of the past is still alive then. We will tend to co relate and develop feelings and then words with meaning and then definition of things. This is why until memory is present we may just reach there but cannot stay there for long as we will see the things happening and want to help, this will mean taking a decision to come back among the living human beings.

 

Everything similar between us gives is the collective space or vision or creation of the manifested universe, similarly everything similar in the state of meditative bliss us gives the collective space or vision of the entire un-manifested and manifested universe with out any limitation [In short How it is here it is replicated there the only difference is the purity and clarity].

 

The various yogic methods teach us to gradually stop identifying with the activities of the mind and thus expand its influence to the entire universe. This is when the whole knowledge is revealed to us and we become aware that all the limitations are our creation. Making new patterns of thinking nothing and keeping the mind alert, so that it does not slip back into the old ways of pleasure seeking.

Along with expansion of mind, it brings with it the stable state of one pointed ness of the entire vastness. And as all the memory is exhausted say undifferentiated, comes peacefulness, tranquility and silence, THIS IS WHEN MEDITATION AS PER MY UNDERSTANDING STARTS, SO WE WERE IN THE STATE OF CONCENTRATION UNTIL IT STARTS, LINKED WITH THE MANIFESTED THROUGH THE SENSES..

Union of the five powers of the consciousness, an inter section at a single point “Bindhu” that creates the “NADA” experienced as subtle feelings with in the limits of our understanding is awareness.

Five powers intersect at a single point “Bindhu or dot”; understanding of this in the subtle level will give us easy to utilize the consciousness during concentration and arrive at a meditation state and get a clearer experience. {We will go deeper into this in our next article}

 

Happy concentration to meditation may all who read this with sincerity attains this state.
