Hindi Poetry

यह किताब किसी विशेष धार्मिक सोच, धर्म या जाति को प्रस्तुत नहीं करती, केवल सर्वव्यापी ईश्वर पर बात करती है और सभी धर्मों में एकता को दर्शाती है |

कविताओं के माध्यम से इश्वर पर, गंभीर विषय को सरल तारीखे से प्रस्तुत करना, इस किताब की विशिष्टा है | जरूरत महसूस करवाने की कोशिश की गई है कि इन पर विचार करना सबके लिए जरूरी होता है जिसका कोई विकल्प नहीं होता |

This book guides us holistically, on how to have a rewarding and dynamic life. It teaches us how to bring transformation from loss of identity, which comes with retirement, to sense of purpose. It tells us that we are not done yet and the retirement stage is a new dawn.

Society views us that way and makes us believe, that after a certain stage of retirement, as useless. And unfortunately, it sinks within many of us. We don’t have to allow that.

Life's most basic questions and also one of the most difficult to answer are who am I, who is God, why God created the universe, what is my relationship with God, why I am here, etc. These questions we try to avoid. But deep down we are never satisfied.

 Our struggle to understand our identity never goes away. We look for something to hold on to. In the process, we end up forming many false egoistic identifications which being momentary, temporary, and false, fail to give us permanent happiness.

 We have taken many births with many more to go. Life had been more or less the same in almost every incarnation- pains and pleasures, sufferings, etc. The questions of life remain mostly remain unanswered.

‘Journey to God’, is the title given to a set of questions and answers bearing on Self- inquiry. This book has the potential to revolutionize your life. It will answer these questions and give you your true identity, a vital revelation that is paramount to the fulfillment of purpose and gaining meaning in life.

The journey through this book will transform you from the limited I to the infinite Self. You are already that. The book is structured in a way to bring up to your active awareness the things you already knew deep within but have forgotten now.

It is just a matter of understanding and realizing the same.

The realization only will lead to freedom from suffering and sorrow.

· We all are on the Spiritual Journey, which starts from the limited ego state called I and gets completed when we realize our true nature, which is Oneness with all including God.

· For the Spiritual Journey to be pleasant, meaningful and under our control, it is important to first know Who am I, who is God, what is my relationship with God, etc. You will never be satisfied till you know these answers. The book helps with that.

· The book throws light on how, what we normally know about self through various identifications formed from time to time, are all wrong and fake.

·   The book tries to tell us what we truly are.

·   This book tries to tell what God is, where to seek Him, and why to seek Him, etc.

·   Subject may be an abstract sort of thing for some and thus demands higher attention to grasp the subtler messages. To make it easy for comprehension, the aid of a number of stories, examples, deductions, experiments, poems, etc has been taken.

·   The book has the potential to revolutionize one’s life, once understood.

·   This book is in a series. Part 1 here deals with imparting knowledge, removing ignorance, etc. Part 2 of the book dwells on the actionable part of the thing, for realization purposes.

About the book: Yoga- the way to realization

“Out of thousand persons, one seeks me to know the truth behind the strange phenomenon of life. Out of a thousand such seekers, perhaps only one goes all the way to the end and knows me, the infinite”. Lord Krishna.

The ancient spiritual practice of Yoga promises that finding God, and having God-realization, through Self-realization, is possible. It is a science. The step-by-step method is revealed here. 

Many reach the level of understanding about the Self, God. But that is not enough. You have to realize Him and till then the sufferings of life will not go. And for the realization, the way out is meditation, practiced scientifically.

Various paths towards that have been explained with their strength and issues and then the best – the Royal path, has been covered in detail.

You are born again and again for that realization only. Go for it, try it out.

While discussing the subject of spirituality, at times it is heard, particularly from those not inclined to it, that every subject is not for everyone. Well, this may be reality but not The Truth.

The above was to make a statement and also point out that there is very fine but significant difference between Reality and Truth. 

This book -The Truth about Self, dwells on this aspect in detail in three parts- Illusions, Reality and Truth. And being about Self, it is a must read for anyone and everyone. It is a Spirituo- Scientific exploration.

We will know what we don't know but must know. The revelation will lead to spiritual liberation and peace within. Will inspire to work further to realize the Truth within. 

We all are on the journey towards that, taking birth after birth for that purpose only, passing through roller coaster movement of life- full of pains and pleasures. Why not explore now.

God exists. He is all around us, inside us, and we are inside Him; Just like the seed is there inside the fruit and fruit is there inside the seed. But still, we look for evidence, because we want to see Him and feel Him the way we see and perceive other things. Which is not possible. It is because we perceive things with the faculties like Mind and Wisdom which are limited and thus not capable to perceive the infinite. They all are objects, creations like us, and are under certain laws, etc. Whereas He is the Creator, the Subject, the One who framed all those laws, and the One who is experiencing the whole thing. He is beyond the reach of mind and wisdom. But He can surely be directly experienced at the level of intuition. And Meditation is the way to awaken the intuition faculty- majorly lying dormant within us. The way is, going inside. All the Masters, through whom came various scriptures, got the knowledge not just simple ideas and concepts, but by experiencing the same. They even demonstrated the same. What more evidence is required? Still, science has given us several theories, that validate the existence of God, very convincingly. This book details several scientific theories and concepts in which each chapter is structured along Science and Spiritual lines. This book has the potential to transform our lives, by establishing the faith in the existence of God and inspiring us to seek Him now with full faith. The journey becomes easier thus.

Mind Works if You Know How to Control It. If you can control the mind, the whole world will gravitate toward you. 

The Power of the Mind Is Limitless. Whatever you can truly convince the mind you can do, you can do.

 Just as we engage in physical exercise, eat a balanced diet, and practice preventive care for our bodies, we should also invest in practices that promote mental well-being. Mind management is indeed the most essential subject, for a happy, enriching, and controlled life. We can, should, and must change our world for good, and for this, must take seriously the mind, which is the source of all experience of the world.

 This book gives a holistic understanding, by reflecting on the psychological, philosophical, and Spiritual aspects of the Mind. It also gives effective techniques for mind control, along with actionable points to work upon.

 Remember, Mastery of the Mind is the Only Gateway to Moksha; called nirvana, enlightenment, or liberation.

As a realized soul, Guru is the embodiment of Godhead. It is God alone who is the true Guru, acting through the agency of souls that are awake in Him, God sends the seeker indirect guidance at first, through books and lesser teachers. When the desire for Him is very strong, He sends the help of a Self-realized guru.

Spiritual search is indeed the inborn divine right of every human being. Knowledge and education are the birthrights of every human being. Spirituality is our inner force, which has a constant pull. This pull becomes very strong at times. So strong that man has no choice. But he will have to make the right decision.

There is a need to exercise some prudence to distinguish a true guru from a sea of self-styled leaders. The fake gurus are all over the place. I hope to guide you on this through this book.

The concept of humans eating is largely limited to tastes, which can be developed and thus not necessarily the truth. Sicknesses are on the increase. Ignorance towards what goes in the digestion process affects our health. A more reasonable approach to determining the true dietary nature of humans is to study human anatomy and physiology. 

If you name a thing, people in some parts of the world are likely to be eating that. But that does not mean we are supposed to eat anything, in any way, we like. 

Our health is strongly within our own power to control. And, if you think we eat solely to feed your physical body, you are wrong: you also eat to nourish your heart, mind, soul, and spirit. The efforts in this book are to present what is best for you, in a very simple and structured way; not just saying do this and do not do that, but explaining things scientifically and logically.
