Guest guest Posted June 2, 2002 Report Share Posted June 2, 2002 I drink no ordinary wine, but Wine of Everlasting Bliss, As I repeat my Mother Kali's name ; It so intoxicates my mind that people take me to be drunk ! First my guru gives molasses for the making of the Wine ; My longing is the ferment to transform it. Knowledge, the maker of the Wine, prepares it for me then ; And when it is done , my mind imbibes it from the bottle of the mantra, Taking the Mother's name make it pure Drink of this Wine ,says Ramprasad and four fruits* of life is yours…………………. *Dharma,artha kama and moksha (The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, In the Company of Devotees, pg 95) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2002 Report Share Posted October 6, 2002 Om Kali Sharmaji, The five things that you are referring to are known as Pancha Makaras ..which in Sanskrit means five article.Pancha means five and makaras are so be cause all 5 article starts with letter ma which is madya (wine),maithuna (coition),matsya (fish)mudra (parched grain) and mamsa(meat).This is also known as Panchatattva sadhana and have gone through massive abuse that today nobody refers to scriptural methodology that it originated from and a lot practice based on blind perception. As usual the tantra text prescribed different interpretation for different level of sadhakas according to pasvachara for the tamasika followers ,virachara for rajasika followers and as divya sadhana for the sattvika followers. You decide which level you aspire to be ….. Remember tantric scriptures like Tantrasara under Bhava-Cudamani and Brhanila-Tantra under chapter 4 -Paradranna gaccheran gacchecca prajapedyadi(trhat is for the purpose of worship)Uttarra -tantra states -Pujakalm vinan nanyam purusam manasa sprset,Pujakalecca devesi vesyeva parittosayet.The same it is stated about madya and maithuna as well in Kulamrta Tantra .This clearly show the are only to be used in tantric ritual and not for daily consumption which according Syama-rahasya under Chapter 5 brings to hell. Even if you claim you are of vira temperament spiritual aspirant remember the saying “Jitendrayah ,staved,nityanustahanatatparah,kamadi-balidanasca sa vira iti giyate -The true hero(vira) to be ,not he who is great physical strength prowess, the great eater and drinker or man of powerful sexual energy ,but he who has controlled his senses ,is a truth seeker, ever engaged in worship and who has scarified lust and all other passions . The scripture is very careful on the usage of them . The pasu temperament is not allowed to drink them at all because the curse of Brahma , Kaca and Krsna would fall on them. According to Vishnu purana (BK II,chap6) the drinking of wine in ordinary life for satisfaction of sensual pleasure is in fact a sin involving prayacitta and punishment in the hell same place where killer of Brahmana goes to . According to Sir John Woodroffe in Introduction to Tantra Sastra at page 117 even in Bengal the high strict Brahman do not partake them.. We could see in Vaidika sastra the 5 articles (coition on other than one’s own wife is prohibited) not used .Well there is no contrary at all between Vedic and tantric acaras. The 5 articles which curtails human from aspiring the higher level thus in vaidika their use is strictly prohibited. But tantras addresses limitation and tries to use the very hindrance to go beyond them for those who could not see beyond them yet .It is like using poison to remove poison. Remember when a venomous snake bite you what is used to take the poison away!!!!!! YES ! POISON!! But remember the doctor must be an expert otherwise you could die of the overdose of the very treatment itself !!!!!!That is why in tantra a guru is vital. It is not one of those of do it yourself stuff. And remember different spritual aspirant temperament different interpretation (divya,vira and pasu) will be made by the Guru Mahanirvana tantra which asserts the use of the 5 article also states under pg 345 that for men of ordinary weak intellect ruled by lust could not do lata sadhana ( maithuna) .Again the same text states the compulsory usage of them in Devi worship but here it is identified with 5 elements and 5 mahapretas not with the panchamakaras in crude sense. Here in this sense the universe (jagatbrahmanda) itself is used article of worship.Wine signifies the power(sakthi)which produces fiery elements,meat and fish all terrestrial and aquatic animals ;mudra all vegetable lifes and maithuna the will action and knowledge of Supreme Prakritti which accompanies the process of creation.Thus we could see the 5 articles in macrosm if you inward the process of evolution to involution then you could understand the microism meaning of this elements .Pannchatatvavicara by Nilamani Mukhyopadhayya at page 85 clearly states wine is that intoxicating knowledge acquired by yoga of Parabrahman,which renders the worshipper senseless as regards to the external world,meat (mamsa) is not fleshy thing but the act whereby the sadhaka consigns all his acts to Me(Mam).Matsya (fish) is that satvvika knowledge by which through the sense of mineness the worshipper sympathizes with the pleasure and pain of all beings .Mudra is the act of relinquishing all association with evils which results in bondage and maithuna is the union of Sakthi Kundalini with Siva in the body of worshipper In summary , if you are looking to practice Panchamakara sadhana you got to understand the internal meanings first. Secondly a proper guru is necessary who will aseess what temremant fits you Thirdly you got to realize the objectives in your mind because that will determine either you are pasu bhava ,vira bhava or divya bhava .Ultimately tantra is not interested in some magical achievement but in union with the Supreme Brahman where it is similar to the Vedic approach. Jai Kali !!! May Maa bless all spiritual aspirant towards Her !!!!Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
