The SECRET Spiritual Practice of the ENLIGHTENED Masters

The knowers of Brahman abide in a way of being that is an advanced spiritual practice of having no relationship to the world. What is this spiritual practice of no association, no contact, and no relationship? In this episode of The Sacred Word, I will explain two important verses from the Mandukya Upanishad Karika, a text one is ready to assimilate after enlightenment. The Mandukya Upanishad Karika is for those who want to absorb themselves in the presence of the Ultimate Reality after awakening.

Hi Jason, I am in Arunachala. Thanks to you. But how is it possible that u explain things way better than anyone here. I feel what u say truly. I was a hardcore atheist just 3 months ago. Now I see

[@robertholland7558]

See what! Atheism Is not believing I Deity. Brahman is not a Deity.

[@divyapari9164]

Not sure what you mean, but just know that both believing and disbelieving won't serve much on the spiritual path. You have to wipe everything you know and replace only with Truth (verified knowledge based on your own inner experiences and realizations)

@@divyapari9164 How does one verified the existence of afterlife?

[@divyapari9164]

@@zatoichiable By afterlife I assume you seek to understand death and what happens after death. Answers to all such and other questions can be obtained by seeking the answer to the question 'What am I?'. Neti Neti (which he mentions in the video as well) is a great way to accomplish it. I myself found success with this method, thats how I know.

Awesome video ! I love it so much . Thank you for sharing . What is the origin of spiritual minds ? I had meet its many times in my life , but I hadn't seen it's form yet . I think that , the spiritual minds manifest sometimes in the world . One time , the spiritual mind had entered in my heart , then I had known all of person's mind , when they had been near me . I had known , where they had come from , and where they had gone etc. I hadn't to ask them . This spiritual mind had been with me only one day , and it had been dispappeared . Then , I had been sorry . If it had been with me all of my life , I can know all human's mind , and animals , birth etc. indeed . I had weet it in year 2008 . Happy week to you !

Beyond the body mind and its phantoms beyond all things nothing excists go beyond even beyondness

[@moonsod1113]

One of my longtime favourite things - Asparsha, the yoga of non-contact. Well presented. But I disagree that it has anything whatever to do with anyhing the mind does or can do. It is pure consciousness in its most abstract state, which is experienced as the field of Unity, which is only known to Atman in its most detached state. There are many degrees of knowing Atman which can only be known through the individuality. How much depends on how open we are to it. But when it swells in its most advanced state like a breaking river, it rises up in its most subtle state and dominates matter, dominates form in consciousness because the identification with Atman is so strong. Nothing changes in form; but everything changes in consciousness which becomes predominant in awareness. Then we can say as pure consciousness, oh, that is me; and that is me; and that also is me. So the inner illumination from self-realisation, when we become the transcendent Knower of knowing, which was within, runs out into the world in its ultimate expression of Godhead, in its absolute purity. But even this is just setting the stage for knowing Brahman. "The knower of Brahman becomes Brahman." We still have to cross over from one stage to the next and we have to leave the old behind; and before us is the abyss of not-knowingness and total emptiness, which is why it is said: Yogis fear this. We have to face the Void. Yet with enlightenment the same things goes: we had to let go, collapse, and surrender everything, just for a moment, to transition to the new state. As the Bhagavad Gita states: The Self knows the Self by th Self alone. We do't do anything except transcend our individuality when the Self makes itself known. There is nothing to be done. Meditation merely thins out the ego. It is a spiritual process, not a psychological one. But when you are ready it happens. Thank you for your talk and your work.

INDIA loves you 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳❤️

[@tonymarriott8480]

Very well presented and informative quite surprising that this stuff is understood, but to make it a reality one has to reach Samadhi, arouse Kundalini, assend all the chakras and totally absorb this Samadhi or the IAM when consciousness becomes Kundalini, and then into Supreme Bindu, cumilating into the non Dual state of PURUSHA, the last part of supreme Bindu is what is feared by some, not that they will have a choice. As the whole Kundalini process is automatic, and the only time there will be access, is when Kundalini is in the highest Samadhi, when one's full consciousness is in the Guru CHAKRA, the SHIVA SHAKTI point, which is below the thousand petal lotus,, but its only from this point that one can you exit through the top centre of the thousand petal lotus, into the premordial state of supreme Bindu onto PURUSHA, which is the start of the eternal Void, or Godhead, but to enter supreme Bindu one must pass death and be totally fearless, which come about from passing through one of the just below chakras, and SHIVA as backup, because you will have become that, but even will fearlessness and SHIVA it is still a perilis journey, and one will shortly look insanity in the face, and there is no doubt if you found yourself there somehoe before you was meant to be there, it could send you Mad as a hatter, that some that have used drugs maybe have found themselves, but it is something to be feared for those not passed the fearlessness state. because there are other things aswel and without being ready for it, you would not be able to handle the pressure.

[@sayanchakraborty1252]

[@anthropomorph714]

There is the 'ONE consciousness' and the 'Power of Transformation'. The individual self has separated from the ONE Consciousness and experiences a temporary reality. From a higher perspective the world does not exist. We are bubbles of consciousness in the divine womb of creation, like stars in the night. The world is like the internet that connects the individual self to an illusory experience. Burn out all your desires. Eliminate the Ego (like an avatar in a video game). Unplug.

[@UjwalRam]

Where can I read this in Hindi/ Telugu please. I can absorb it better in those mediums . 1. Pushing your agenda on to others is the real selfishness 🤯 2. To truly connect you have to disconnect

Is it possible someone can be a Yogi from a past life and not remember? I ask because as I learn more about Hinduism and Buddhism I come to realize that I've been doing/ being ... pretty much what I am finding out with these subjects.

[@yoeyyoey8937]

Big time

[@christophergoode7823]

In Hinduism, as a rough rule, you are born into a womb where one is left off (spiritually or perhaps even demonic). So yes, one can be born a yogi, hence many of the great spiritual masters such as Yogananda.

[@confidential303]

You have several past life, but not remembering your past life. This is called reincarnation. When you are born, you don't remember your past. But, it is still with you. If you become at a level where you are spiritual advanced like a yogi, you can see what you have been in previous life and many other things you can see. These qualities are dormant by default. The question that we have to ask is, who am I?

[@PhillipBell]

So I can have a clear conscious, the Manukya Upanishad makes no reference to Asparśa (अस्पर्श). This Upanishad, like the others, is a commentary on the Vedas. It is only twelve slokas (verses) and references the three sounds of Om (A, U, M), and the three states of mind (waking, dream, dreamless sleep) as well as the Fourth (turiya). But not Asparśa. As Jason mentioned, the Karika is not the Mandukya, but a commentary on the Madukya (which itself is a commentary on the Vedas), written probably either by Shankara or his paramguru, Guadapada (no, not Gautama the Buddha, a different person). But note that there are many commentaries on the Mandukya Upanishad, and Shankara is always going to present a non-dual slant in his commentaries. So we should take care in not giving a strong correlation between Mandukya and Asparśa, as it is not in there. The Mandukya should be read as it is, remembered for its two-fold teachings (i.e. dream metaphor and sound metaphor) and treat commentaries as just more teachings. Please get a good swami or Guru to cover these texts, so that correct interpretation is applied. - Just some guy that enjoys translating ancient Sanskrit texts.

[@skrrskrr99]

I can't even explain this to other people in my life. I just get criticized all around living in the west. I suppose my attachments to others opinions probably needs to go. Logically I understand but it's impossible to make my mind shed it's attachments to the illusion. Trapped but only realizing there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes I see glimpses of it but never find it.

Jason, are you a Yogi?

[@jzkramer]

The use of the term Yogis here is a little confusing and probably be better described as ascetics or sadhus, because Yoga and Advaita Vedanta are so ineluctably intertwined that to describe a Yogi as dualistic would be an oxymoron. That is apart from the miscreants who followed Madvacharya, but they aren't really Yogis for Yogis are Advaita Vedantists. even the name Yoga means unifying.
