Continuation of the count of japa

[Guest guest]

Dear balaji / devotees,

 

This is the continuation of my earlier mail with some additional information.

 

The Praana Shakti (Vital Energy) of an individual which is spread across one’s

body, permeates 96 Angushta Pramanas in the body and 12 angushta pramanas above

the brahmarandra (the very subtle spot on our head).

 

When the person passes away, the Prana which permeates 96 angushta pramanas

(approx. inches) leaves the gross body. But the 12 angushta pramana prana which

is above the Brahmarandra would still remain as the subtle body (sukshma prana).

 

Hence, the Antya Kriyas of the dead person (the formalities of the dead

person) is performed for 12 days. Every day, this 12 inch pranas gets depleted.

And on the 12th day, when Vaikunta Samaradhana is performed, depending upon the

Karma (Action) of the dead person, the sukshma sarira (subtle body with vasanas)

ascends the higher world choosing either Devayana (Path of Light) or Pitriyana

Margas (Path of Darkness).

 

With regards,

sriram

this is perfect! the email comes as an amazing coincidence! I have been

pondering on the following

 

....etadvai jaraamaryamagnihotra{\m+}satra.n ya eva.n vidvaanudagayane pramiiyate

devaanaameva mahimaana.n gatvaadityasya saayujya.n gachchhatyatha yo

dakshiNe pramiiyate pitR^iNaameva mahimaana.n gatvaa chandramasaH

saayujya.n gachchhat...

 

The above passage is clear on the outcome when a vidvan (upasaka) passes away in

either Uttarayanam or Dakshinayanam

but what determines when ambaal decides when an upasaka leaves the mortal frame

either in uttarayanam or dakshinayanam? the emails regarding savya/apasavya

margas has been making that clearer and clearer.

 

just a side on the samayAchara and vAmAchara my summation is that:

one is slower (maybe much slower possibly several lifetimes) but safer. The

other is faster but harder and fraught with perils. Either walk along the well

paved and well lit road or try the shortcut through the forests,

 

it is no coincidence that the characters are Suratha and Samadhi. The marga

chosen by Su-ratha required great strength, courage and fearlessness that only a

kshatriya king possessed.

The maraga of Samadhi, one of self negation would not have been possible by

Suratha as it goes against his natural tendencies and vice versa.

 

The point that I take away from it is that Amabaal provides enjoyment as well as

liberation

 

dhik balam kSatriya balam brahma tejo balam balam |

ekena brahma daNDena sarva as.htraaNi hataani me

Vishwam
