Practice or Sadhana

[Guest guest]

Namaste,IMO.

 

It doesn't matter how philosophical one gets, Sadhana is

irreplacable and absolutely necessary for achieving Moksha.

Philosophy exists in the mind and not so high in the intellect even.

A high level of awareness can only be attained through sadhana and

purifying the vijnanamakakosa or awareness sheath. It doesn't matter

if one is aware of the illusion the lower mind needs the practice

and the result is a cleansed or purified higher intellect or Buddhi.

I for example do not accept that creation happened at all, but my

mind believes the illusion, otherwise I wouldn't be writing this.

So I use yantras, mantras and tantras to help my lower mind. I am

aware at the intellectual level that this isn't the ultimate truth

but my lower mind doesn't. Hence the need for a certain amount of

ritual, Ishtadevatas, bhajans, mantras etc.

As we are God then we are in fact the instrument of Grace. Which is

achieved through karm and purification of the Buddhi. There is no

outside 'God' who is going to help us and give us Grace we haven't

earned. This God is our very selves indeed, in fact we are the Sakti

we worship in fact. It is through the Sakti we gain the Nirguna, for

merging with Sakti, our own Higher Self, we become realised of

Nirguna also. At this point above attributes and bliss itself we

realise it never happened at all............ONS...Tony.
