Guest guest Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 What, exactly is 'Jeev'? Do Body, Mind and Intellect comprise Jeev? Is Jeev in a particular place in the body? Or is it every where, in every cell? Please, enlighten. Ramesh Chitnis ------------------------------- NEW POSTING Hari Om A very good question, indeed! " Jeev " - is the name given to that pure soul which has connected itself with the inert ( in simple words with the " body " ) and thereby has adopted the " world " . - BG 7:4/5 In other words, you are called " jeev " so long as you are connected with the world/nature/inert/body. " Jeev " resides " technically " in " ego " . Your " ego " has two parts. One pure soul- Ishwar ansh, avinaashi, chetan, amal, sahaj sukhraasi. ( Part of God, imperishable, Sentient, faultless, and naturally blissful) . Another part of " ego " is " inert " / nature/ perishable/world/body. Jeev is the " knot " connecting sentient and insentient. You may call " Jeev " to be " grey " - where Sentient part is white and inert part is black ! Scriptures call that to be " causal body " or " ignorance zone " or " ego " ! Sanatan Dharma endeavours to disconnect sentient from inert- so that you may cease to be " jeev " and regain your chetan, amal, sahaj sukhrasi form which is pure soul- part of God and God only. The end result of disconnection of sentient and inert, in other words of cessation of your being " jeev " is called Moksha, or Nirvana, or Kaivalya, Emancipation, or Liberation, or Mukti etc. In other words these terms signify " opening of knot connecting sentient (chetan) and insentient/inert (jad). " Thus Jeev doesn't comprise of Mind/Intellect/Body. Through Ego it gets connected with them. It is everywhere in the body. Form of " Jeev " consists in " me " and " mine " . You are " jeev " so long as you consider body/ mind/intellect to be " me " and/or " mine " . You cease to be " jeev " when you reject your connection with inert by not considering body/world etc to be " me " or " mine " ! Thus entire " jeevahood " rests on your " connection " by way of " me " / " mine " with reference to body/mind/intellect etc. This mind/body/intellect get governed by " ego " - where " jeev " resides. In Karma Yoga, " the ego is purified " by not considering the mind/body/intellect etc to be mine and instead by considering them to be belonging to the world. In Jnana Yoga, the inert part of ego is not considered to be " me " and hence " ego is eliminated " - being part of nature and not of you. In Bhakti Yoga, " the ego is changed " by considering " me " to be part of God and " mine " to be only God- instead of body to be " me " and " mine " ! In all three cases, the inert part gets disregarded, connection with inert gets broken, " knot " gets opened, and " jeev " ceases to exist. What remains behind is pure soul- being part of God and God only. Jai Shree Krishna Vyas N B ---------------------------- Shree hari Ram Ram The Jeev (Embodied soul) can never see itself. When Jeev remains belonging to it's Swami (Master, Father), then there will be no quest to see/know itself. So be it. Vineet Sarvottam ----------------------------- Dear sadak, Do Body, Mind and Intellect comprise Jeev? Body mind Intellect are tools that guides one to perform his Karma based on his previous/present puniyas and sins. Example: So many hear Bagavath Geetha but rare is a person who follows it` s teachings. All who heard just walk back to their normal life as usual. That rare person who follows Geetha is the person who done good deeds over several birth says upashids. All of us know that speaking lies is wrong. But only very few follow. That few are gided by their Karmas of the past. One person feels very much about bomb blast. Other just cares little. So these acts and thoughts are from their mind, inteleect, which is again operated by one`s own account of Karmas. Jeeva is totally indipendant. Is Jeev in a particular place in the body? Near the heart in vaccume cellular. This was prooved by so many saints. Or is it every where, in every cell. Jeeva is no way connected to body anywhere. Jeeva` s arrival and departure from body is predestined to normal person. Death can be postponed by.certain spritual practice and servicing by hard work to Bagavan Shiva Temple. An old lady 80 years was brought to teenage by a saint for her persistant service at a temple in Kancheepuram. Thousands wittness including the king iof that town Kancheepuram. This aspect if moderator and sadaks want, I can furnish full details and proofs that can be seen to day also. All the cells in brain and body, senses of perceptions, organs of action is energised by Jeeva which is part of Bhraman. So any part can be inactive or disease prone by Jeeva not energising that part sufficiently. Here come pranic healing and Reki to temporarily heal. The jeeva not energising partly is due to the Jeeva was wittness to actions of the past and now it is paid for.

Guest guest Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 What, exactly is 'Jeev'? Do Body, Mind and Intellect comprise Jeev? Is Jeev in a particular place in the body? Or is it every where, in every cell? Please, enlighten. Ramesh Chitnis ------------------------------- NEW POSTING Dear Friend 1.'Jeev' is beyond Body,Mind and Intellect.Please refer to verses 42 and 43 of 3rd Chapter of Gita ,which clearly mentions Jeeva is beyond body ,mind and intellect.One can defeat his worst enemy desire (kam) by understanding and realising the power of his soul. Please read verses 36 to 43 of 3rd chapter of Gita. 2.Jeeva is through out the body.It is in every cell of the body.The soul enters the single cell to give human life and then the single cell goes on multiplying by division.All memories and experiences of past lives are coded into the DNA Strands of the cell ,which is called now Genome Mappimg. 3.Gita will start altering characterstics of DNA Strands on:- a)Proper and thorough understanding and continuous reading of Gita. b)Experientially understanding that one is not (beyond) body,mind and intellect. regards Ashok Jain ------------------------------- Dear Sadhakas, Namaste! Some additional clarification based on what has helped me, I would add the following: Jeev is simply a label given to the state of ignorance on the part of a person which is to think, and act as if person is body-mind individual. Jeev is not a " thing " . When Chaitnya tattva or Sentience or Consciousness or Atman identifies with the body-mind it shines, acts of such one are based on " me " and " mine " , and that individual is said to be Jeev or ego, Again, the Atman is also not a thing, but Absolute Existence- Consciousness only like a light! It is important to understand, however, that there is no real existence of either Jeev or Ego, both are a derived sense of " me " in the mind based on identification with body. When this sense of " me " drops away due to realization that " I am/was never an individual having separate Atma, residing inside a separate body " , then Jeevahood merges with Ishwartattva or Godhood. Jeeve and Shiva are one and same in the absence of any limitations such as body-mind- intellect-world objcts etc Namaskaras............Pratap Bhatt ------------------------------ Dear Sadhakas, Namaste! More pointers on Jeev. When the Light of Atman, experientially Pure Consciousness reflects through the senses-mind-intellect of a person, identification with body in the form of 'me-thought in the mind' and 'me feeling due to bodily sensations' happens. This is the birth of Ego or Jeev, a false sens of individuality and doership thereof. This me-thought- feeling gets stronger throughout the life of a person and it is taken as real which is our conditioning/karmas. That which is real cannot cease to be, and that which is unreal cannot come into being- Gita 2:16. So Jeev or Ego or personal doership cannot be real as it does cease, otherwise we cannot be free from it. Thus " we " are Atman, and since there is no sense of 'me' individuality there, Atman is Impersonal Being, or Brahman (Upanishadas). Spiritual law says that only that which is false but taken as real binds us, That which is Real cannot bind us. Even though we say embodied soul or Jeev is in the cells of body, it is not to be taken literally, it just feels as if Atman is embodied due to limitations of identification just as sunlight in a room is not located in the room, or bound by it. Since it is a shadowy sense in the mind as ignorance of our true identity, it cannot be located anywhere. Bottom line is our ignorant behavior makes us Jeeva, and when free from Jeevhood or ignorance, Shiva or auspiciousness or Sahaj Sukhraasi shines which IS, never ceases to BE!

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Shree Hari Ram Ram We are clearing up pending queue this week due to significant back log. You will receive few extra emails next couple of days. Only reply if essential point not covered by other sadhaks From Gita Talk Moderators, Ram Ram What, exactly is 'Jeev'? Do Body, Mind and Intellect comprise Jeev? Is Jeev in a particular place in the body? Or is it every where, in every cell? Please, enlighten. Ramesh Chitnis ------------------------------- NEW POSTING Priy Sadhak Jeev is an actor performing particular character Actor=Atma Character= Our wordly Identity Thanx Raja Gurdasani ------------------------ -Shree Hari- Dear Ashok Jain, In you statement about Genome Mappimg. I would like clarification. When is the 'Past', encoded into the DNA strands? I have heard a Christian monk refer to cellular memory, so overwhelming is the evidence, that it challenges Christian dogma. The point is, many have remembered their own deaths,(rigorously investigated), events remembered as a child who died before puberty, as a celibate, etc. I have no problem with the concept what so ever. When is the point of contact, at fertilization? It seems to me, it cannot be in the sperm or the egg. Many would love to explain such things as DNA memory, yes a cattle dog is born with the desire to roundup cattle, (has to polish its skills), a spiders web is perfect at first attempt, the knowledge is with them, but there are things that go beyond the genetic line. With Respect and Divine Love, Mike Keenor ------------------------------- PRIOR POSTING Dear Friend 1.'Jeev' is beyond Body,Mind and Intellect.Please refer to verses 42 and 43 of 3rd Chapter of Gita ,which clearly mentions Jeeva is beyond body ,mind and intellect.One can defeat his worst enemy desire (kam) by understanding and realising the power of his soul.
