Rise of thought is where the action stops. What Maintains there after is the reaction ( knowledge). Movement of stimulus and response is unitary direction and end of stimulus is end of response. Simce stimulus never ends hence the response is immortalised by the very construction. The Movement of Gyan ( sound) which gives rise to the image in audio visual oneness can't be separated and thus the action there that makes the move is YOGA It is by design and one has to do nothing to realize it as it is already realized by itself and for itself without any violation and devote of any desire. Universal

Wonderful teaching from Swamiji, he is a gift to the world. Is my understanding correct? The energy of knowledge itself becomes yoga, yoga meaning essentially the enactment of viveka on the subtle level to firmly establish oneself in the Self at the full blossoming of yoga, thenceforth that same energy which was knowledge that became yoga now transforms into kriya as action takes place on the gross plane, whatever that action is, ie. japa, pooja, karma yoga, etc. So it is the same energy entity that has transformed and become expressed on the physical plane.

You wrote English you do not know and that not knowing is where the yoga starts when the energy of knowledge gives rise to movement that movement is part of reaction and not action . In short it is a reaction action and not an pure action. Pure action is born out of the oneness of energy and does not need gyan as we know buy is gyan full as it is in the domain of gyanessness like water is to fish.

@@KuldeepPandita-kn9bx Very advanced, thank you for clarification. So the pure action is the initial generation out of the gyanessness, and is it correct to think of this happening in the body of God, in the anandamaya kosha, every time(infinite times per second?) that that the Cit of the initial Maya conditioned state of the Absolute Realizes Sat and experiences its nature as Ananda? And the Cit must be the causal substance itself of "gyanessness?" Knowlege spontaniously occurs, transforms into movement/yoga as you describe, and is kriya at the blossoming of yoga. The perpetual chain reaction of creation the generates the universes(But that never really happened in the first place..)

@@KuldeepPandita-kn9bx Yes I see. The object appears to the witness, the knowledge is generated, becomes yoga, becomes kriya. Thank you. I guess that the point of the video is mainly to point out the fact that knowledge is none other than yoga and kriya themselves, that it is the same energy entity seems to be what Lakshmanjoo is indicating. Many blessings my friend 🙏 Om Shanti

@sam fritz Sir, It is possible that you hear (gist or expression) same thing from different people & you might also have the experience of what has been told heard or precived by you (first person real experience) since so called an experience is same for all & exactly function in similar ways .A chair remains a chair no matter who see i,who recognize it since it is the knowledge about and of chair that is operating in all . Same is true for all the experiences no matter whether spiritual or Materlistic. It is the known that is knowing and not the unknown. This should end all search & rest I in peace . Saints and saviors who wrote text and put the yet to be born after them on a perpetual seeking are the one who crafted this knowing cycle and then placed before us the image of unknown,knowing well that all that is unknown cannot be known by the knowledge since it is the known that has invented the idea of unknown & projected it in a such form and such time that is not Now but an event of future & by this invention the known has assured its immorality & permanence since it knows that simce unknown can't be known & thus the known would never really end. Seeing is viewing the seen. And there is no noun that is seeing at all. Noun is an abstraction born out of neurobiology disorder called curiosity. Regards Kuldeep Pandita 22 July 2022 Tamilnadu
