I DISCONTINUED TO USE FACEBOOK. THIS TEXT AND THE NEXT TWO TEXTS ARE FROM THERE.
A sincere Buddhist makes efforts to get into Nirvana after physical death and avoid reincarnation. The philosophical correct term should be Nirguna Brahma, the part of Brahma that is beyond the influence of the three gunas, beyond time and space.
Before this creation came into existence there was only Nirguna Brahma, the Supreme Soul in a state of indescribable bliss.
The Supreme Soul, with the help of a then inactive force called Prakrti created a mind for Himself. The universe with all its different dimensions is the last and crudest part of this Cosmic Mind, Saguna Brahma. The Cosmic Mind consists of a Subjective Mind (Cosmic Mahatattva and Ahamtattva) and an Objective Mind (Cittatattva with the universe as its crudest part).
The unit soul/mind through a number of plant/animal and human incarnations develops until it has reached enough awareness and and makes efforts to become one with the Supreme Soul, who is beyond the Gunas (Nirguna Brahma, Nirvana). All worldly attractions become insignificant for such a person.
One should be aware that without the visible or invisible help of Saguna Brahma a spiritual aspirant could not reach the goal of Nirvana.
With the help of Brahma Sadhana it is much easier to reach the goal. At www.brahmacakra.blogspot.com or my Facebook page one can find hints how to reach Nirvana.
A sadhaka has to fully realize and experience Paramatman (Cosmic Soul) and his/her Real Self, the Atman. Otherwise it is not possible to overcome the influence of Maya and avoid reincarnation.
Are you able to read 100 book pages a day? If not, be aware that your intellect is too limited; likewise, your understanding of reality is flawed.
This is not arrogance, but a reality check.
THE IMPORTANCE OF SECOND LESSON AND VIJINANAMAYA KOSA
The Vijinanamaya Kosa is the storage place for the Samskaras and at the same time it is the home of some extraordinary Vrittis like Viveka(true discrimination) and Anuragya(non-attachment).
From BABA’S discourse “The Base and the Relative Truth”:
…..
(1) Annamaya Kośa: Even after the annihilation of the base from the Átmán, the Saḿskára does not separate from the Átman or unit soul. How does this phenomenon occur? Hirańmaya Loka is the subtlest body of the human being. The living being carves out a physical body for itself from the Bhúrloka i.e. where Tamoguńa is present dominant Rajoguńa is ordinary and sattvaguńa is negligible.
Another name for this in Saḿskrta is Annamaya Kośa. This body is formed through food.
(2) Kámamaya Kośa: The mind works behind the body. The mind is formed by Kámamaya Kośa which is known as the crude mental body. Here Tamoguńa is dominant, Sattvaguńa is intermediate and Rajoguńa is insignificant.
(3) Manomaya Kośa: The force behind the Kámamaya body, that is, the crude mental body, is the Svarloka the mental sphere of the Supreme Brahma. Above the Kámamaya body there is an ordinary mind which is created by the Manomaya Kośa. In Manomaya Kośa, Rajoguńa is dominant, Tamoguńa is ordinary and Sattvaguńa is insignificant. The force behind the mind is Atimánas body or shell which has been created by the Maharloka. Here Rajoguńa is dominant, Sattvaguńa is ordinary, Tamoguńa is insignificant. A Kośa, literally shell, means a body. The four spheres comprehend the four shells.
(4) Vijiṋánamaya Kośa: It is in this sphere that Saḿskáras exist. Sattvaguńa is dominant, Tamoguńa is ordinary and Rajoguńa is insignificant. This mental sphere is known as the Vijiṋánamaya Kośa and this sphere is the Janarloka of Brahma.
(5) Hirańmaya Kośa: This sphere is known as the Taparloka. Here Sattvaguńa is dominant, Rajoguńa is ordinary and Tamoguńa is insignificant. The meaning of the word Hirańmaya is gold or golden…..
“The Base and the Relative Truth (Ádhára and Ápekśika Satya)” Ánanda Púrńimá 6 May 1955 DMC, Subháśita Saḿgraha Part 1
From Didi Ananda Mitra’s Commentary on Ananda Sutram”, page 154, Sloka 3.1:
VIJINANAMAYA KOSA: SUBLIMINAL MIND
…..“Vijinananamaya kosa, the middle layer of the causal mind, can grasp the total existence of the objective world. It can perceive all the tanmatras, of which the lower kosas perceive only a fraction. It has frill knowledge of past, present and future. Many divine attributes are expressed in this layer of mind: mercy (krpa), gentleness (mrduta), patience (dhaerya), serenity (susthir), non-attachment (vaeragya), steadiness (dhrti), success (sampat), cheerfulness (hasya), spiritual ecstasy (romainca), humility (vinaya), meditation (dhyana), seriousness (gambhira), enthusiasm (udyama), imperturbability (aksoba), magnanimity (aodarya), and undisturbed attention (ekagrata).
This kosa has two main functions: viveka, discrimination; and vaeragya, non-attachment.
Viveka is knowing what is lasting and what is not – being able to discern the Eternal, Absolute Consciousness from the passing show of the material world. Discrimination means realizing that since one day we must all die, any attachment to this physical world can only ultimately bring pain and despair…..
If a sadhaka wants to develop and experience the above divine vrittis he/she is to systematically purify the Vijinanamaya Kosa:
Through the “burning process”of our lessons and through the very regular application of the second lesson this can be achieved. Only then and if one avoids all unnecessary worldly activities it is possible to get the Vijinanamaya Kosa clean.
The two Mantras that are in use for Ananda Marga’s Second Meditation Lesson:
Tade Tat and Sarvang Hyetad Brahma
Meaning of both Mantras: Everything is within the Infinite Brahma.
Application: Think the Mantra (only one of the two) and imagine that the eternal and infinite Brahma is the Real Doer of all actions in the universe; that we are Atman (our eternal Soul), merely witnessing the event. Apply the Second Lesson before all major activities. Correct Sanskrit pronounciation.
Another point: Some may wonder why BABA as Taraka Brahma was hiding His identity while He was on Earth. Those days the planet was inhabited by 3-4 billion people. Imagine 2 billion of them applying for an Indian visa in order to see Him; or TV-helicopters permanently over Lake Gardens and Tiljala.
He had to arrange His life in such a way that the vast majority of the Earth’s population would not take notice of Him; BABA even went to prison. For most people it is beyond imagination that GOD spends some years in prison.
The gap of 35 years between 1990 and now:
In 1990 the planet’s health was still intact. In those 35 years the population doubled and succeeded to considerably destroy much of the planet’s healthy nature. 35 years more from now and it would be difficult to breathe in some parts of the planet (big cities), half of our oceans would be dead; forest areas would be much less etc.
PARAMATMAN AND MEDITATION
The world that we perceive through our sensory organs is not reality. It is a relative reality only.
All physical and mental objects that exist are a reflection of very small particles: atoms, molecules and microvita. A single atom needs the presence of several million microvita to come into existence. The various types of microvita are mental in nature.
To overcome this limited perception of existence (MAYA) a person has to develop his/her abilities of mental perception; otherwise the understanding of existence is more or less defective.
Making efforts to perceive PARAMATMAN, the Supreme Soul, who is the original cause of all creation is the only way to overcome Maya.
Concentrating on PARAMATMAN in Siddhasana position for at least 20 minutes per day is together with Ananda Marga’s 1st lesson the best meditation that I know.
If one succeeds to do this meditation on the Supreme Consciousness for an hour or more per day a considerable reduction in the necessity for sleep is one of the effects that can be noticed.
How I got this meditation:
It was towards the end of last century: I had just finished my 5th lesson and wanted to do Guru Puja. GOD (Saguna Brahma) kept me in the Siddhasana position for a few seconds. I immediately understood that I was supposed to meditate on and make efforts to perceive HIM.
Here are the names of the 7 positive and 7 negative spheres of the beyond:
“In the movement towards subtlety there are seven stages or lokas: bhu, bhuvah, svah, mahah, janah, tapah and satya; and in the movement towards crudity, there are seven spheres: tala, atala, talátala, pátála, atipátála, mahiitala, and rasátala. Rasátala, the crudest sphere, is dense, crude matter, like wood, bricks and stones. For a person having degenerated to this degree of crudity, it is next to impossible to return to the subtler spheres. But even in rasátala one is not alone – Parama Puruśa is also there. Hence, no one should despair.”
from the discourse “The Divine Drama”
25 December 1978, Kalikata, Ananda Vacanamrtam Part 7
The attached (text: Nirvana) graphic is the best that I was able to find. Replace Prana by Kama. The 10 vayus are no additional kosa; and add the Atimanas Kosa in the area of the Vijinanamaya Kosa and the Anandamayi (Hiranmaya) Kosa.
Atman, Mahatattva and Ahamtattva also should be added.
Spiritual development has much to do with mental perception.
Sometime in the second part of the 1990ies I came across a book that showed the energy centers of the head. This book woke me up regarding my understanding of meditation.
In this book were five energy centers on the forehead. In the course of the next years I developed the understanding that all the five energy centers are real and what they mean.
As I am an ardent follower of kevala bhakti (only Brahma and Brahma Sadhana have importance for me) I quickly understood that the Guru Cakra is at the highest point of the forehead, not where the pineal gland is or at other places.
The first energy center of the forehead is an upa-cakra just above the nose. It also has the function of an mental eye. Our third lesson is related to it. Once I perceived it during meditation: it slowly opened and I saw the white smoke of the fourth cakra; and the microvita that are the basis of solid matter; they move very, very slowly.
The second energy center (forehead) is the sixth cakra. This is our second mental eye. It is much more developed in the case of people with a high standard of education.
The third energy center is an upa-cakra and place of the famous “Third Eye”. As it is much under the influence of the sixth cakra only intense spiritual practice and mental renunciation from this world enable a sadhaka to perceive much through it.
I call it mental eye “3a” as a person has the possibility to have an additional cakra that is situated exactly in the middle of the forehead. It has the same function as the upa-cakra of the “Third Eye”, but is much more powerful as it is not under the influence of the sixth cakra’s vibrations. Some have this cakra from birth. Others get it after a serious disease or an accident.
One night in June 1995 I fell down some stairs and ended up on my head. This very painful accident was used by Brahma to connect some nerves in this central area of the forehead: I had the ninth cakra.
From that day my mind became like a central station for transcendental information: I had visions of past lives, the future, saw human life on other planets etc. Both mental eyes (3a and 3b) are doors to the level of the Atimanas Kosa/Mahar Loka.
The Guru Cakra has also the function of a mental eye. A Sadhaka perceives Brahma/Paramatman through it.
In Didi Ananda Mitra’s book “Commentary on Ananda Sutram” 16 spiritual vrittis get mentioned that are said to be somehow related to the Vijinanamaya Kosa. This is not precise. Like the other vrittis these spiritual vrittis have a physical base: the Guru Cakra.
Those who want to develop these vrittis (vaeragya non-attachment, romainca spiritual ecstasy etc) have to practice maximum sixth lesson (or one of the two meditations that I mention I my texts.
If you have troubles: The six lessons will not help to get rid of them. The Kiirtan Mantra will, or at least will make a difficult situation more easy to handle. It is the daily practice of Kiirtan (one hour or more) that will bring a revolution into a person’s life.
ISHTA MANTRAS AND ACOUSTIC ROOTS
Namaskar.
Everyone knows the main acoustic roots of the first five Cakras from the Third Lesson: HAM, YAM, RAM, VAM, LAM.
It is not accidental that the most famous Ishta Mantra on Earth, HAM-SO, has HAM as a major part. Many, many organizations use this mantra. The HAM-SO Mantra mainly uses the microvita that control the Fifth Cakra; these are microvita that form the basis of sound. As the Mantra is deeply related to BRAHMA Siddha Microvita also play an important role in the use of the Mantra.
Like the first five Cakras also the Ajina Cakra has a main acoustic root, besides the acoustic roots of its two Vrittis apara and para:“Ksa” and “Ha”.
BABA mentions it in the Senior Acarya Diary. It is T’HAM. The sixth cakra gets controlled by mental (vidyadhara) microvita. There is an ISHTA MANTRA that mainly uses these Microvita. It is “T’HAM-TAT”. The meaning is probably the same as the meaning of the HAM-SO Mantra: I AM HE.
Now, also the Sahasrara Cakra has a main acoustic root. It is “OM”. The Istha Mantra related to OM is “OM-PHAT”. I guess the meaning is “Only HE”. This Mantra is so powerful that it can be used only on the big Sahasrara Cakra. Used on the lower Cakras it will damage the physical body.
According to BABA the mind of a Tantric should become her/his laboratory. One is to perceive Cakras, Kosas, Microvita etc.
The ideal Tantric lives what BABA calls “Kevala Bhakti”, which means that only BRAHMA and BRAHMA SADHANA have meaning for this type of Sadhaka. Everything else is worldly and of limited importance.
Transcendental experiences then happen arranged by BRAHMA, not as a part of the individual’s wishes.
The main acoustic roots of the Cakras I, II, III and IV are dominated by Rajo- or Tamoguna and not fit for a subtle Ishta Mantra.
The use of the Mantras above used at the Cakra related to the particular acoustic root is more efficient: HAM-SO at the Vishuddha Cakra etc. A revolutionary change in Ananda Marga can only be achieved by making adjustments regarding the spiritual practices.
I did not mention the Ishta Mantras used in Ananda Marga; they are more or less secret. There are still more Ishta Mantras like BRAHMA or KRSNA. Some of these other ISTHA MANTRAS function better if you know on which Cakra to use them.
BABA predicted that Ananda Marga would shrink in the future; then, suddenly, the organization would expand with explosive speed. In comparison to today the summer programs in Berlin Sector of the 1990ies had double as many participants.
If we want BABA’s prediction to become reality revolutionary changes inside the organization are a must.
The vast majority of people who were initiated into A.M. meditation have sooner or later left, many because they were unable to perform the meditation. There should be an all-round effort to supply every citizen who is willing to meditate with free spiritual practices that she/he is capable to perform: BRAHMA SADHANA, Transcendental Meditation or another suitable meditation.
Below is the comment of Uri Geller on "Advent of A Mystery, Vol.1&2"(on the back
cover, two of the books on Shrii Shrii Anandamurti). He is one of the most
investigated and celebrated psychics of the world. He baffled the world of
physics with his extraordinary psychic abilities:
“Every once in a long while, a book comes along that changes the way
you think, the way you act. and the way you see the world around you.
And once in a very long while, you come across someone who is truly
extraordinary — mysterious, preferring anonymity, but one who
impacts the world through the sheer weight of his exceptional
knowledge, wisdom, cosmic outlook, and love for humanity.
The biography Shri Shri Anandamurti: Advent of a
Mystery is an eloquent portrait of one of the most intriguing spiritual
masters in the 20th century. It comes at a time when people are
groping for the meaning of life and the role of spirituality in life and
evolution why we are here, where we are going, what’s the end
destination, and how to get there? While the book gives convincing
answers to these and other questions, what makes it different is that
the theory is verified by practical demonstrations, making the stories
immensely compelling. As you turn page after page in wondrous delight,
you begin to wonder if what is written is possible - from riding a
tiger to raising the dead to ending Stalin's life to prevent communism
from engulfing the world and much more. Arc all these incredible
stories possible? Is there a case for cosmic intervention in human
history and in the workings of the universe? Are destiny and
evolution products of chance or cosmic design? Is death the end or the
beginning of life? Is reincarnation real? Are psychic and spiritual
powers real or imaginary? And, if they exist, what is their purpose in
the scheme of things? Do extraterrestrial civilizations exist or are we
alone in the universe? Those and many more such topics in the book
fascinate the reader and make him question his own premises and
assumptions of life, truth and reality. I once said that the problem
with the paranormal is that it's so weird. This book takes it a step
further. Apart from enchanting readers with the cosmic experiences
associated with heightened consciousness and demonstrations on life and
death, the book also presents an impressive array of new knowledge in
cosmology, the evolution of races, the concept of
causality, and interesting snippets of information on World War II,
among others.
Advent of a Mystery isn't a bedtime story book by any measure. For
serious students of spirituality, this book is an authoritative guide.”
Shrii Shrii Anandamurti:
"Try, O Sa'dhaka, to know only Him, in Whom are held the sky, the world
and the void, in whom are ensconced the mind, the five vital forces and
the sensory and motor organs. Shun all other pointless considerations
except your efforts to know Him. You are mortal, subject to death.
Your desire of establishing yourself in deathlessness has been with you
from eternity. And that very Brahma is the bridge leading to that state
of deathlessness. So you will reap the real good, if you can only know
Him." Reference : Subhasita Samgraha - 2, (The Intuitional Science of
the Vedas)

Dear Reader!
We are in the early stages of a New Age, a spiritual age.
As with Christianity 2000 years ago, few currently have a good enough understanding of the new philosophy (in the text that follows, the attached "October 2019", "Extraterrestrials, Secret Politics" and "Luminous Worlds" texts, and the other texts on my Facebook page [Yogendra Bauer] and at www.brahmacakra.blogspot.com).
Be careful. You won't believe some things in the texts. "Believing", however, means not knowing something. As you can see from the book lists on the texts I mentioned, I have a systematic, scientific approach to the important issues in life. When I write about something, I have studied it thoroughly and acquired knowledge about it.
Get a copy of Pranavatmakananda’s “Advent of a Mystery”(electronic version) and electronic versions of the other books with biographical information on Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, the founder of the Ananda Marga organization ( all at amazon.com). Your understanding of reality will be different afterwards.
https://www.facebook.com/jurgen.bauer.39982/posts/pfbid02RD4guUkwbchfNJYyYiFMm6m5vrmGBxHJoqzFu3tiR17LqEeMb2Qrm9dGV9Ap8grpl?__cft__[0]=AZXjFzJ21FPWeGGpg1w4nSVHePjdbHxO2mv6nCAsBYDlbMZyGXOu0YnrKTnJY_jILooplQT9Jq1g9_GSwjCSTTpmTTAEeyugB6IhqBdC3G3fXavh0TxAwH_lw4m-ItoAhxUfRYLKEJFk9uzRxrX1ZdhEME8Io59x_CjKKU_nvE0dHQ&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R
The “Age Of Aquarius” will be an age of spiritual liberation, i.e. many, many people will incarnate on Earth who will be here for their last life. So far I have not met anyone who is determined to achieve this goal.
Sri Ramakrsna Paramahansa was one of the few yogis who got spiritually liberated. Read his biography and you may get an understanding what one has to do to follow him. Ramakrsna had no education at all. Until today he is remembered as one of the greatest yogis of all times. His life shows what can be achieved through a spiritual life done with sufficient intensity. Like his biography, Hermann Hesse’s “Siddhartha” and the various discourses of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti (founder of Ananda Marga) on Bhakti Yoga created an urge in me to begin a ceaseless effort to become one with Brahma. Also reading the biographies of great saints and yogis contribute to the development of such an urge (Yogananda, Ramana Maharishi, Saint Francis, Theresa of Avila etc).
It will be mostly such personalities who will pioneer and lead humanity in the coming centuries.
Move! Become one of them. Use the unique chance and do something great with your life
God regularly gives people chances. One has to be wise enough to understand them.
In the 1930ies Paramahansa Yogananda came to a visit in Germany. One reason was to initiate the catholic nun Therese of Konnersreuth into meditation. Both of them got spiritual liberation. Another reason was to try to come in contact with Adolf Hitler, the Nazi leader. Hitler refused to meet Yogananda. Meeting Yogananda Hitler would have realized that his dark path is entirely wrong. Shrii Shrii Anandamurti commented on Hitler that today he would not commit such mistakes.
The present Russian leadership received my texts and a number of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti’s books as electronic version. They got a chance too to avoid the mistake to start the Ukraine war.
Those who lead an intensive spiritual life her on Earth live in a kind of individual spiritual bubble. On the level of the atimanas kosa all human beings and all other living beings are connected. The 3 levels of the causal mind are one with the respective level of the Cosmic Mind. The level of the Cosmic Mind regarding the atimanas kosa is called Maharloka. Telepathic communication for example happens through the Maharloka. The second level of the causal mind, the vijinanamaya kosa is part of the Janarloka of the Cosmic Mind.
There is something called “Regression Therapy” where people are experiencing events of one or more of their past lives. This often helps them to overcome emotional problems and see their situation clearer. The therapists and many other spiritual people believe in a so-called “Akashic Record” where the information about the previous lives of everyone gets stored. This understanding is very vague. Reality is that the information of our previous lives are stored in the vijinanamaya kosa in a form that is unreadable for us. When one perceives events of a past life God takes the information from the vijinanamaya kosa and gives it a form that we can perceive(in atimanas kosa). From there it enters into the manomaya kosa where we experience visions, sounds etc. of a past incarnation. A person practically never sees past incarnations of the other sex or as animal as this would create severe emotional problems for us.
This collective energetic field (atimanas level) has a very worldly vibration at the moment as 90% of the present human population is non-spiritual. Everyone should be aware that we are under the influence of this. It is an effort to escape from this crude influence and become more spiritual. As I have mentioned in one of my writings before at a certain point in the near future this will change. When about 100.000 persons perform regular tantric meditation Saguna Brahma (God) will change the collective mental vibration and significantly increase the number of siddha microvita on the level of the atimanas kosa. Then it will become much easier for all somewhat reasonable people to lead a spiritual life. Until then it is on the present spiritualists to intensify their spiritual life and to encourage others to do the same. The intensity of our spiritual efforts has an impact on the collective spiritual vibration.
Ista-cakra, Ista-mantra, siddha-mantra, siddha-microvita, vidyadhara microvita, sound-microvita. The 3 mantras OM-PHAT, AOM-PHAT and THAM-TAT are new on Earth. Together with the HAM-SO mantra they are the most powerful tantric mantras in the universe. Baba once gave a tiny discourse named “The Phat Mantra”. Phat by itself is not a mantra. Baba gave this discourse to indicate that phat is part of two of the above mantras. These four mantras together with other less effective tantric mantras are being practised on some of the spiritual planets in the universe. The other spiritual planets are similar to what happens here on Earth in its innumerable spiritual groups and organizations.
Guru cakra and the 9th cakra in the middle of the forehead are not known because they are usually undeveloped (diameter 1.7mm) and because few sadhakas attained spiritual liberation on Earth.
Correctly applied this is the most efficient system of spiritual practice that exists.
Example: everyone has a cerebral and a non-cerebral memory. Human beings who develop dementia have an undeveloped non-cerebral memory. Practising 30 to 60 minutes of Ananda Marga kiirtan per day he/she will start to develop the non-cerebral memory and the disease “dementia” will significantly improve or entirely disappear. Guaranteed!
Since 2009 my live has been a mixture of star wars, ghost busters , James Bond and Indiana Jones. However, as I am convinced that not everyone believes what I say I will not write much more about this. Our local galactic administration consists of 6 planets with a human civilization: three have space ship technology, two of these belong to the dark side, one is a spiritual planet. Then there is one planet on a Medieval level, and one is in stone age; the last one is planet Earth. In 2009 I had a visitor from one of the 2 dark planets who came to Madhu Karuna in luminous form (out of his physical body) with the instruction to try to kill me. He was not entirely bad and realized that it is not good to kill me. We had a short conversation. On his planet the official ruler is an emperor (a mere puppet). The mental vibration there is so crude that the negative luminous worlds are partly above the surface of the planet. Here on Earth this was also the situation until Christianity started to expand. Carol Zaleski mentions this in her book “Otherworld Journeys”. The concept of GOD had started to enter the mind of more and more people. This made the collective mental vibration more subtle.
We should not think that our ancestors were entirely stupid: the gods and goddesses of Greek and Germanic mythologies were partly real experiences. Read the Greek author Homer. God regularly put technicians from other solar systems into a particular racist underworld that came into existence about 10500 years ago (end of the last ice age). Some of them were Zeus, Apollo or Thor and Odin. These “Gods and Goddesses” had some influence on the development of the human society.
That the Mongolian race is originally from Mars I have from the German book “Der Untergang des Planeten Mallona”, author Leopold Engel (clairvoyant), the author describes life on the planet (medieval, very hot climate),but he did not perceive that he had visions from life on Mars from 10500 years ago. He thought it is the planet that once existed between Mars and Jupiter (asteroid belt). Those days Mars and Earth were under the influence of the civilization of another solar system. The time for this information hadn’t come.
That Brahma uses energy balls far bigger than planet Jupiter I have from the book of a clairvoyant who had many out-of-body experiences. That the Nazis got the jet propulsion technology from the negative world of the beyond that I mention above is also from the book of a clairvoyant. While he wrote the book this clairvoyant was in contact with the siddha devayoni (Ascended Master) Saint Germain, one of the most important helpers of God during the last 300 years. One of the two had the vision about this technology transfer.
Both clairvoyants are still alive. I will not mention their names as I don’t want them to get into troubles.
Daily asanas practice is important. The body and the mind are more relaxed and it is easier for the kundalini energies to move upward.
You have to forgive me that lack of good form and beauty of my texts. At the moment I am part of a magical war that takes place. This makes it impossible to be better. Lahiri Mahasaya came after the death of his physical body to the medieval planet that I mention above. There has been a similar war happening. The two dark planets with spaceship technology illegally influenced the neighboring planets (with the exception of the spiritual planet); this included influence on the worlds of the beyond.
A truly tantric mantra always has a meaning that relates the individual with GOD. Like HAM-SO means “I am HE, THAM-TAT has the same meaning. God did not tell me the meaning of the other two mantras. I guess the meaning is “Only HE”. As I have mentioned in one of my other texts, samadhi with Om-Phat and Aom-Phat a person gets only once then he/she is spiritually liberated (the soul looses its mind and becomes one with the Infinite Soul of God. Om-Phat must only be used on the Sahasrara Cakra. It is too powerful for the cakras below. With Ham-So and Tham-Tat one can also get spiritual liberation but usually a person experiences temporary samadhi.
Tham is the main root of the Ajina Cakra, ksa and ha are the acoustic roots of the two vrittis of the cakra (worldly and spiritual knowledge). Vidyadhara Microvita control this cakra. The fifth cakra is controlled by microvita that are the base of sound.
I. This meditation is to be done on the 5th cakra which is at the topmost point of the spine. Concentrate there and repeat the “ham-so” mantra. It is pronounced like the English word “hung “(to hang) and like the “so” in the English word “solemn”. While inhaling think the syllable “ham” and while exhaling the syllable “so”. The mantra is from the Sanskrit language and means “I am He”. Our unit self (the soul) is (for most people invisible) one with the infinite soul of God.
II. This meditation is to be done on the 6th cakra which is between the eyebrows. Concentrate there and repeat the “tham-tat” mantra. The “tham” is also pronounced like the English word “hung” (thung) and the “a” in“tat” like the English word “tug”. The meaning of the two mantras is the same .
III. This meditation is to be done on the tiny 7th cakra at the top of the forehead. Concentrate there and repeat the “aom-phat” mantra. The “a” in both syllables like the “a” in “tug”, the “om” like in the English word “bomb”, the “ph” like “f”. The meaning is “only He”. Inhaling “aom”, exhaling “phat”.
IV. This meditation is to be done on the center of the crown (sahasrara)cakra. Concentrate there and repeat the “om-phat” mantra. The meaning is also “only he”. The mantra is too powerful to be used on another cakra. If one uses it on other cakras one harms the physical body.
V.-VII. It is easier to meditate with these 3 mantras: Shi-va; Krish-na; Brah-ma; however, they are less powerful and effective than the above ones. Concentrate on the 5th or the 6th cakra. They are for people who meditate little or irregularly, or for beginners. The vowel “i” in Shi-va is pronounced like in the English word “jeep”; the “i” in Krish-na like in “fish”; all “a” vowels like in “tug”.
If you have enough concentration and energy try to think of God during your meditation. You make one step towards God He will make several steps towards you. God lives in state of permanent supreme bliss. For the creation of the universe He has to use a force (prakrti in Sanskrit) that has a partly static(negative) nature. This means that God was only capable to create a universe as it is or a similar one. The alternative would be no creation at all. This is the only limitation of God.
A good mantra consists of so-called acoustic roots. The whole creation is related to such acoustic roots. The first sound of creation is the famous “OM”. The efficiency of the first four meditations is related to the fact that the first syllable of each mantra is the main acoustic root of the respective cakra. “Ham” is the main acoustic root of the fifth cakra, “tham” of the sixth cakra, “aom” of the guru cakra (top of forehead)and “om” of the sahasrara (crown) cakra. With the help of the two acoustic roots of each mantra one positively influences the mental particles that dominate the respective cakra.
Tantra is 90% practice (Shrii Shrii Anandamurti). Once one has experienced the blissful cosmic level beyond time and space one knows that this is the final destination.
Thinking of GOD, singing the name of GOD, meditating on GOD always improves the siddha microvita situation of one’s mind and in the environment. Doing this with the help of Sanskrit mantras is energetically more efficient (acoustic roots).
When one practices the tantric meditation system basically the following happens: the samskaras (the karmic reactions from our past lives) that are being stored in the vijinanamaya kosa ( Shrii Shrii Anandamurti mentions this in the discourse “The Base and the Relative Truth” in Subhasita Samgraha I) are being put by Brahma into the Ista cakra during the process of meditation. With the help of the mantras and the other parts of the 6 meditation lessons they are systematically getting “burnt”, i.e. negative microvita are being replaced by spiritual microvita. Systematically done the sadhaka develops more and more peace of mind, true discrimination (right or wrong, good or bad, important or unimportant). In the course of this development he finally succeeds to avoid creating new karma (2nd lesson) until his vijinanamaya kosa has become pure and he/she achieves spiritual liberation.
Microvita and acoustic roots are like the two sides of a piece of paper.
In Ananda Nagar is the so-called Nava Cakra cave. Shrii Shrii Anandamurti once revealed its existence to some acaryas. At the time of Shiva (about 7000 years ago) it was the home and meditation place of a fully realized yogi who had the 9th cakra and made the drawings of our subtle main energy centres. There were always yogis (mostly in the Himalayas) who knew the four main tantric mantras; however, they were not allowed to tell them to others. This has changed now. It is time to let every interested human being know about this tantric meditation system so that the predicted spiritual age will come into existence.
The first lesson of Ananda Marga, to be practised two
times a day or more, minimum 30 minutes, no time limit:First phase: the sadhaka (Sadhaka is a Sanskrit term which describes someone who follows a certain sadhana, a spiritual practice or way of life, with the aim of achieving a certain
goal. The term can be translated as meaning "spiritually adept“.)
imagines the vast blue sky that is above him/her. This phase should
last about 10 minutes. Second phase: the sadhaka imagines a small point
of light that enters the big toe of the right foot and moves up inside
the leg up-to the bottom of the spine, the same happens with the left
foot/leg. The point of light then moves up the spine to the crown of
the head. From there it jumps to one of the higher cakras (see above).
This phase also lasts 10 minutes. Third phase: Now one of the mantras above
gets (mentally) repeated and the
sadhaka imagines that this point of light becomes one with the mind of
God. No time limit for this third phase. At a certain point of one‘s
spiritual development it is possible to compress one‘s mind into a tiny
point of light, leave the body through one of the higher cakras and
experience oneness with God. Half an hour or one hour kiirtan plus
regular meditation helps much to become a better human being. In Ananda
Marga the meditation lessons get taught incorrectly as the present
generation of Ananda Marga acaryas (meditation teacher) has little
experience with the transcendental side of life. On my Facebook page
(Yogendra Bauer) one can find two more meditations. In case you have
not read my spiritual texts: they are at
www.brahmacakra.blogspot.com and https://www.facebook.com/jurgen.bauer.39982
The second lesson of A.M. meditation enables the sadhaka to prevent creating new karma. Two possible mantras (one needs only one of the two): “Tade Tat” and “Sarvang Hyetad Brahma”; meaning: Everything is Brahma. Before each major action one uses the mantra and imagines that the Infinite Omnipresent Brahma is the real doer of the action.
Check the internet for correct pronunciation of Sanskrit mantras.
Ainga and Shiama. These two Transcendental Meditation mantras function. The other TM mantras need to be thoroughly tested or don't function. To be practised two times a day 20-30 minutes; for beginners or people who lack concentration.
People with serious mental, emotional problems are not capable to practise meditation. They will have to sing 30-60 minutes of Ananda Marga kiirtan per day until their mind is sufficiently balanced (YouTube, it is much easier to sing kiirtan accompanied by music).
Read my old Facebook texts. They all contain valuable information on spiritual practice and theory.
“Acoustic Roots” (Discourse, Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, Taipei 25 August 1979)
Do you know what a saying is? It is a collection of words. And what is a word? A collection of syllables. And what is a syllable? A collection of letters. And what is a letter? A [sound having a] particular wavelength, or a particular acoustic expression. Everything comes out of the Supreme Entity, so many waves of light, sound, so many waves of tactual vibration… Ssh! – hot! Tssh! – very cold! These are all tactual variations having different wavelengths. Similarly, the acoustic wave, which means the expression of sound, also comes from the very source, from the very nucleus, from the very controlling point of the universe – who, we say, is Parama Puruśa.
Sounds are innumerable. Say, the English letter “a”. In the English language this sound “a” has twenty-two types of pronunciation. A-N-T, “ant”. But E-L-E-P-H-A-N-T “eleph-ent”, not “eleph-ant”. Here, A-N-T is not “ant” but “ent”. The same A-N-T will be pronounced ant [“ahn”] in French, elephant [“elephahn”]. The same vowel or same consonant may have so many sounds. Even in the case of the pictorial expression of sound, a particular figure may be pronounced in a particular way in Mandarin, in a particular way in Shanghailese, in a particular way in Cantonese, in a particular way in North Japan, in a particular way in South Japan. So many expressions, innumerable expressions, of human vocality. “Acoustic” means “pertaining to –” – what? The Latin term for “concerning sound” is “acoustic”, and for “concerning ear”, “auricular”; “concerning eye”, “ocular”; “concerning seeing”, “optical”. All these are Latin words.
These many expressions are all sacred. All sounds are sacred, no sound can be bad, because all come from that Entity. All human expressions are certainly sacred. All languages are certainly sacred. That is why I pay respect, I pay reverence, to all languages of the world. All have the same dignity.
Now if we try to bring those expressions – so many expressions – together, it will be beyond human capacity, but we may try. And as a result of human endeavour, those expressions have been brought within the range of fifty main sounds. Those fifty main sounds are controlled by fifty main glands and sub-glands of the human body.
In the morning span I was saying something regarding the pancreas. There are ten sub-glands; each and every sub-gland has a particular sound. Amongst the fifty sounds, ten are controlled by the pancreas – d́a, d́ha, ńa, ta, tha, da, dha, na, pa, and pha. Each and every sound has something to do with the physical world and with the mental world. These ten sounds control ten propensities of the human mind – shyness, fear, etc.
Suppose all those sounds are expressed at one time. What will happen? Suppose you go to a market. Somebody will say, “What’s the rate of potato?” Somebody else will say, “What’s the rate of brinjal [eggplant]? What’s the rate of meat?” – like this. And the shopkeeper will say, “I want this much;” and the customer will say, “No, no, no, I won’t give more than that.” So many sounds. But if you go, say, about one hundred yards from the market, what will be the sound? Something like “hawawawawa”. All the sounds together will create a peculiar collective sound, is it not a fact? Will you hear “potato” or “beans” or “cauliflower” from a distance? No, you hear the collective sound “hawawawawa”. Is it not a fact? Similarly, all those sounds, innumerable sounds, brought under the broad category of fifty, will create a collective sound in the universe. That collective sound is aum, A-U-M.
Now listen to these three sounds of aum: a, u, ma. They represent the creation, the retention [or preservation], and the destruction. The first sound, a, represents creation; the second sound, u, represents retention; the third sound, ma, represents destruction. So all those innumerable sounds, all those fifty sounds, are represented by these supreme sounds, a, u and ma; and collectively a-u-ma becomes aum. For each and every action there is a supporting sound in this universe. That supporting sound is called the acoustic root of that action.
You are moving. The sound khat́-khat́-khat́-khat́ is created. That sound, khat́-khat́-khat́, is the acoustic root of the action of moving.
You are laughing. The sound há-há-há-há is created. The sound há-há-há is the acoustic root of the action of laughing. Each and every action has its acoustic root.
The portion of the tree that remains under the earth is the root; the acoustic root is the sound which may be treated as the rudimental portion of an action. The Latin adjective of “root” is “rudimental”. For each and every action of this world there is an acoustic root.
You see, tantra. The root tan means “to expand”, and tra means “liberator”. The science that liberates you from all bondages, physical, mental and spiritual, is Tantra. Tan means “expansion” and tra means “liberator”. The science that expands your mind and spirit and thus liberates you is Tantra. The metamorphosed form of tantra about seven thousand years ago became taota. The Sanskrit dhyána became c’han [in Chinese], c’han became chen [in Korean], chen became zen [in Japanese]. It is a very interesting science. Now, tantra became taota; taota after further distortion, further metamorphosis, became taoa – in modern language [Chinese], tao. Taoism, don’t you know? Its root is tantra. Do you relish this topic? Do you like what I am saying? But I must be paid for it! [Everybody laughs.]
So then for all the universe, the acoustic side is aum – A-U-M. It includes all the spheres of work also. It is the collective sound of all the work of the universe.
The earth moves around the sun; certainly a sound is created. It may or may not be audible to you, you may or may not hear it, but certainly a sound is created. The moon moves around the [earth]; certainly waves are created, and certainly due to those waves, sounds are also created. It may or may not be audible to you. Everywhere there is sound. If you move stealthily, as the cat moves while catching a mouse, even then there is sound. Everywhere there is wave; everywhere there is light also. That light may or may not be visible to you.
In the night you cannot see, but owls can see, moles can see – Moles, you know? Rat-like creatures of small size… for example, “to make a mountain out of a molehill”. Moles can see in the night. Owls can see in the night. Bats can see in the night. The bat is not a bird, it is a mammal. It lays no eggs; it is a mammal. It can see in the night, so there is light. Aum is the collection of all sounds, so within the scope of aum come all the activities of the world. For each and every work there is sound; aum is the collection of all sounds. So within the scope of aum comes all the work of the world. Aum represents the mundane expression of Parama Puruśa; aum represents the worldly expression of Parama Puruśa.
In each and every human being there is sleeping divinity, divinity in latent form, divinity in dormant form. When that sleeping divinity is aroused, stops sleeping, is in a wakeful stage, what happens? A person will acquire immense power. He or she may become omniscient, all-knowing – will know everything, without going through any book, without going to any library – will know everything of this universe, because that person will be one with Parama Puruśa. The person is Parama Puruśa, because the sleeping divinity has been aroused.
The sleeping divinity in the human body lies in the lowermost portion of your backbone. That lowermost bone is called kula in Sanskrit. That sleeping divinity is called kulakuńd́alinii. Kuńd́alinii means “in coiled form”. It is sleeping, and when it is aroused, is elevated, by dint of your sádhaná, by dint of your dhyána, c’han, chen, zen, it will go upwards. When it comes up, that is, touches the controlling point of the pineal gland, one will become one with Parama Puruśa. One will become Parama Puruśa.
Now the spot, the kula, where divinity is in sleeping form, is found in each and every human being. When by Tantra and yoga it is aroused and brought upwards by applying a special force, that special force is called diipanii. Raising it, elevating it, it finally becomes one with Parama Puruśa when it comes here [crown of the head].
Now the seat where the kula is, the seat where the kulakuńd́alinii is, has got existence, and wherever there is any action or there is any existence, there is acoustic root. There is a sound for it. (Because of your presence, air, light, everything – every expression’s flow – is barred, the flow is checked. You are standing here; air comes; because of your existence, it will refract or reflect; so your existence also has got a certain sound.) The existence of the seat of that kula, where that kulakuńd́alinii, that coiled serpent, sleeps, also has an acoustic root, and there is a certain psychic place allotted for it.
That psychic spot is called in old Sanskrit mańipadma, or mahámańipadma, or munipadmá or mahámunipadmá. (Mahámuni is a name of Lord Buddha. Mahámuni means “great sage”.) So, “Using aum, I remember Parama Puruśa; and mańipadma is the seat of that coiled serpentine, that sleeping divinity, in the human body. I remember that entity also.”(1)
There are so many sounds. Each and every thing has got some sound. Suppose you want to learn. A particular vibration is created, “I want to learn, I want to learn.” A vibration is created. The meaning of the vibration is, “I want to learn.” The vibration of this desire is a mental flow. “I want to do something.” “I want to eat jackfruit.” “I want to eat – ” – what? “Passion fruit.” [laughter] There are several different flows. “I want to eat mango” and “I want to eat pineapple” are not the same flow. In the case of “mango” there is a picture of a mango in your mind. In the case of “pineapple” there is another picture in your mind, a picture of a pineapple with small thorns. In “mango” there are no thorns. You prepare different pictures in your mind, so the waves will also be different.
You want to fight against so many weaknesses. The human mind has so many weaknesses. The doctor says, “You see, you are suffering from liver disease, you must not take oil. You must not take butter.” It is human weakness. There are so many human weaknesses. “Bábá(2) says I should fast on Ekádashii day, so I am fasting on Ekádashii and secretly taking chocolate.” Bábá knows this, but Bábá won’t say anything. Simply, when you come before Bábá during P.C., then in Personal Contact Bábá will say, “O my little boy, can you explain to me what’s the actual taste of chocolate?” And if that person has intellect he will understand. Do you follow everything? [Laughter. One Márgii, in particular, becomes red-faced.] According to mental desire, there are acoustic roots, there are sounds. Each and every man has certain weaknesses; one is always moving after name, one is always moving after fame, or after money, always money so many weaknesses. One wants to fight against internal and external enemies. You have enemies in your mind, you have enemies outside your mind. There are so many depraving forces, they are all your enemies. When you want to fight against the mind, a particular flow is created in your mind, a particular flow. The acoustic root of that flow is hummm. [Makes fighting gesture.] The hummm sound is created. The hummm sound is the acoustic root of fight.
When you are to raise your sleeping divinity, elevate the sleeping divinity from the lowermost bone of your body, the mańipadma, the lowermost seat, you will also fight against so many adversities and pass through the entire cord, the entire backbone of your body. After so many fights, you will be able to elevate the sleeping divinity in your body to the status, or to the stance, of Parama Puruśa. Parama Puruśa touches the human body through this point [crown of the head]. It is called Brahmarandhra.
Brahma means Parama Puruśa and randhra means “cord”, the cord through which Parama Puruśa touches the body. It is the pineal gland controlling all fifty – that is, fifty times two times ten – one thousand – propensities. One thousand propensities of the human mind are controlled by this pineal gland. By the pituitary gland only the conscious, subconscious and unconscious portions of your mind [are controlled]. Now, just to raise the coiled serpentine, your sleeping divinity, you have to fight against many fetters, so many fetters of animality, so there is a fight, and this should be represented by the sound hummm.
So the old Maháyániis used this incantation, Oṋḿ mańipadme hummm. Now it is clear. I think perhaps the monks do not know, though they should know, the inner meaning of what they say. I think it is very interesting and very pleasing, although it has been a bit terse.

BABA AS TARAKA BRAHMA
Hardly anyone is aware of the fact that Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar has been Taraka Brahma only from 1955. In the time before P.R. Sarkar was a spiritually highly developed human being who incarnated on Earth for his last life.
When P.R. Sarkar was a little boy Shiva appeared to him several times in night dreams. God does not appear to Himself! Before 1955 P.R. Sarkar practised palmistry, used a crystal ball to perceive distant places, past and future. The young P.R. Sarkar needed other people to learn languages. In his early years there were some days when he would here the question “Who are you?” This made him realize that he is Atman and not the mind.
The people who knew P.R. Sarkar before 1955 clearly stated the complete change of personality in 1955; i.e. that it is not Prabhat Ranjan who is in his body but someone else.
In the months before 1955 P.R. Sarkar used to fall into samadhi and often expressed the desire to get final samadhi and not come back.
The Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar after May 1955 never fell into samadhi. HE was in the state of supreme bliss permanently.
In “Namah Shivaya Shantaya” Baba states that Shiva was omniscient from birth. He would not have done this if there was no second possibility: that a human being gets spiritual liberation and that Saguna Brahma uses the person’s body to act as Taraka Brahma.
Krsna, in the first half of life, was a human being too. He finally also experienced spiritual liberation. Can you really imagine Taraka Brahma playing flute and entertaining gopis?
There is no difference between the minds of Saguna Brahma and Taraka Brahma. There are no two GODS.
The present generation of Ananda Margiis depends on physical form in order to have an understanding of GOD. The Christians of the past put Jesus above GOD as an entity without form was beyond their understanding too.
A sadhaka should make a systematic effort to perceive Paramatman and as an automatic consequence in case of success perceive oneself as Atman and realize that one is not the mind.
Many years ago, when I had only five lessons the following happened one day: I had just completed the fifth lesson. God kept me in siddhasana position for a few seconds. And I understood that I should continue meditation in this position and try to perceive GOD. This has been one of my most important meditations since then. If you practise it for more than one hour per day your need for sleep gets significantly reduced.
Whenever Taraka Brahma is on a planet to improve its spiritual conditions HE acts relatively invisible as He does not want the non-spiritual human beings to become aware of HIS presence. That Baba has been on Earth will soon be known to the whole population of Earth.
Some Points on Meditation
It is very difficult to get a “beyond time” experience during meditation as long as a person is under the influence of the vrittis of the first five cakras (see book “Yoga Psychology”).
Some years ago, I had done about two hours of meditation and was relatively exhausted, without much concentration. I decided to continue in siddhasana focussing my mind on the centre of the sahasrara cakra. That moment GOD showed me to visualize a tiny point of light in the sahasrara’s centre and continue with my meditation. After 15 minutes or so I started to perceive how it is to be beyond time, one of the most fantastic experiences I ever had. I did this meditation for about one hour. At the end of the meditation I realized that my “emotional setup” was in disorder. It took me an hour of kiirtan to get back to a balanced state. The future meditations on the centre of the sahasrara cakra had the same experience. I felt a little bit beyond time, but I always had to correct my emotions by singing “Baba Nam Kevalam” as long as I had practised this sahasrara cakra meditation.
Other meditations I received similarly. The two OM-Ista Mantras I got from Parama Purusha after I had understood the system of main acoustic roots of the major cakras.
“OM” is the first sound of creation. At the same time it is the main acoustic root of the Siddha Microvitum. Siddha Microvita are the base of the mind of Saguna Brahma. The more intense a person’s spiritual life is the more Siddha Microvita are present in the unit mind.
The present Covid virus variant has the solution for the removal from the human system in its name: “Omicron”. Sufficient creation of Siddha Microvita through a life with much Kiirtan and meditation doesn’t allow the corona virus to exist in our body. The moment such viruses enter the body the moment they get destroyed.
Much more difficult it is for someone with a moderate or no spiritual life to remove the corona viruses as their number has increased drastically. One can only guess how much Kiirtan is needed for a cure.
To emphasize the importance of Kiirtan Baba once said that if a person has only half an hour per day for spiritual practice he/she should do 20 minutes of Kiirtan and 10 minutes of meditation.
In general it can be said singing the name of GOD always adds siddha microvita to the human system. Singing Sanskrit mantras is more efficient as this language is based on acoustic roots.
In the internet I came across someone telling that he succeeded to remove the corona virus by singing “Om Namah Shivaya”.
Once I read the story that during the time of Stalin a group of Christian nuns was brought to a hill outside of a Siberian prison (in winter) to spend their night there. Everyone thought they would certainly freeze to death. After some time the nuns started to sing Christian songs. They sang the whole night and survived healthily.
It is easier to do much kiirtan if one sits, eyes closed, hands and legs crossed, and listens to kiirtan from CD or the internet. Most of my daily four to five hours kiirtan I do like this.

SPIRITUAL LIBERATION
The texts on this website contain the most detailed description on Earth how to achieve spiritual liberation, i.e. how to free oneself from the cycle of reincarnation and become one with the Infinite Brahma (the Nirvana of Buddhism). This is a state of Supreme Bliss as Brahma is beyond the influence of Prakriti and its Gunas (Sattva, Rajo and Tamoguna), beyond time and space.
It may be difficult for most readers to imagine how there can be such blissful, supreme happiness without any object. A person has to experience this state in meditation. Once this has happened one will smile about the comparatively insignificant enjoyments of worldly life.
The more people try to reach the state of temporary (Savikalpa and Nirvikalpa Samadhis) and final Oneness with Brahma the more subtle and spiritual the collective vibration on our planet will become. Please take part in the endeavour to create the predicted spiritual society and inform as many other people as possible about this chance.

Lack of Spirituality and World Politics
The Ukraine war has consequences of which the politicians of our world are not really aware. Ukraine is badly destroyed. Due to the increased prices of raw materials (oil, gas), the poorer countries of our planet are hardly or not at all able to supply themselves with fossil fuels. As a result, the famine that exists in poor countries has increased considerably. The fact that Russia and Ukraine are among the main suppliers of wheat, maize and other agricultural products makes the situation even worse.
Immense sums of money go into equipping Ukraine with weapons, ammunition and other material goods. In addition, huge costs are incurred in housing and caring for the 14-15 million Ukrainian refugees.
This is part of the consequences that the war has caused so far. If it continues decisively longer, the total costs will be several times higher than the costs so far.
Russia has announced for months without words (through the 100,000-man army across the Ukrainian border, what would happen if certain Russian demands were not met (Ukraine not a member of NATO, no NATO troops along the Russian border). In the West, this has been more or less ignored.
For weeks now, Russian politicians have been warning that the war would escalate to nuclear if Ukraine were to be upgraded with modern Western war equipment. Apart from warnings to Russia that such a thing would have serious consequences, there has been no change in Western strategy. The West also seems to want to arm Ukraine with heavy offensive weapons.
Russia has its back to the wall. More severe consequences than before (sanctions, Russia's exclusion from international payment systems, freezing of foreign Russian assets and others) are hardly possible any-more. Therefore, it will make no difference to the Russian government to destroy the most important Ukrainian cities by nuclear means.
The prestige and power thinking of President Putin and his government will not allow them to lose this war. They would lose face. Therefore, the nuclear option is the logical continuation of a Ukrainian build-up of heavy offensive weapons.
If Western politicians were spiritual, they would have approached Russia and met its conditions. Ukraine, like Finland and Sweden, would be a militarily neutral country and a member of the European Union at some point in the future. NATO would have withdrawn its troops along the Russian border;
then there would have been no war with brutal consequences for the whole planet.
A spiritually evolved person sees war as the absolute last option of political action. For such a person, all living beings are of equal importance. His love embraces his worst enemies to the same extent as his best friends. That is why he is a vegetarian and takes care that the other fellow inhabitants of his planet do not suffer because of his way of life. Shrii Shrii Anandamurti's lectures in the book "Neo-Humanism, the Liberation of the Intellect" are of enormous importance for overcoming too narrowly defined social ideas.
Some famous personalities of the past were highly spiritual but avoided letting their fellow human beings know it.
Albert Einstein ordered that part of his writings not be published until 20 years after his death ("Man is a part of the whole we call the universe, a part limited in space and time. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as separate from everything else - a kind of optical illusion of consciousness. This illusion is a kind of prison for us, confining us to our own preferences and to affection for a few close to us. Our aim must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening the horizon of our compassion until it embraces all living beings and all nature in all its beauty." Albert Einstein ,1879 - 1955).
The German writer Johann Wolfgang Goethe (1749-1832) revealed in the last years of his life that his most important works were written with the help of writers from the beyond. Max Seiling: Goethe als Esoteriker, Silberschnur-Verlag.
The author of the famous "Sherlock Holmes" novels, Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was intensively involved with the afterlife, spiritual mediums and spirituality.
State of US democracy: the US democracy is one of the worst in the western world. The dependence on one person (presidential democracy is dangerous. Donald Trump's presidency can be cited as an example. Parliamentary democracy is much better.
The senators from small states like Vermont have the same power as the senators from California or Texas.
When Donald Trump was elected president, he received 3 million fewer votes than his opponent Hillary Clinton (a good electoral system?).
The US is a 2 party dictatorship. The electoral laws are such that it is impossible for other parties to gain seats in Congress.
A fair electoral system should accurately reflect the will of the voters. If a party receives sufficient voter support nationwide, it should enter the national parliament with 4 or 5 per cent of the vote.
The so-called free press of the West: much of it is privately owned. It is naïve to believe that the owners of these media do not influence the content of publications.
Hardly anyone is aware of the fact that the US military would be much smaller without the dollar as the de facto world currency. The US economy is decisively weaker compared to the economic power of the European Union. Looking at the state of the armament, the opposite seems to be the case. Compared to the US fleet and air force, what Western Europe can muster is mediocre.
"Let me control a country's currency and I'll control its politics."
One should avoid at all costs that because of one country half the planet or in extreme cases (nuclear escalation) the whole planet suffers.
Spiritual politics: in Afghanistan the female half of the population now lives enslaved in a kind of hell (burqa among other things). The West should have continued to be militarily present in 2 or 3 provinces, as a home for all democratic and human rights oriented people. Probably even the Taliban would have accepted such a solution.
