What we missed in our "education" trying to make up now!


How much I wish during  school period over 12 years, formal study and understanding of Upanishads in original Sanskrit with interpretations of Shankara, Ramanuja , Madhwa acharya  also got covered in addition to the routine education !

We all would have been able to debate more rationally rather than expressing strong opinions: less the knowledge , stronger the opinion.

Recently heard excellent pravachanas of scholars (over one year ) through 32 works of Sri Madhwacharya which covers also the interpretations of earlier Acharyas.

How vast and practically relevant to our life which we missed was the constant regret I had. This knowledge does influence our lives positively to make the best use of our precious time granted in any one life.

Yes Sir, the jnana is the only Kama one should have and lead life as Sri Raman did. Saatwic avoiding greed anger, harsh utterances, jealousy and be kind and helpful to all living & non living.

Further evolution automatically takes place depending on the level of yogyata one achieves.

Hunger for jnana and doing karma for benefit of humanity and not for self, not seeking fruits there of and contemplate and try to understand the universe and the nature of the force running the system for the good of all of us, be free from attachments while being in full love with the world enjoying every moment granted to us, realisation we can only have right to do our best for the best of most people, but cannot really control with certainty any outcome, the humility arising there of, being the core value guiding our words and actions, are thoughts arising in my mind.

Just sharing thoughts: I do not have any claim to know more than any one else amongst the elders in our group.

Let me admit : it is not easy to remain thoughtless.

May Sri Hari bless you all who seek to know and understand what and who we are.

Just another day of Brahma we collide with another galaxy !!

  Just in another day of Brahma our Galaxy collides with Andromeda : Earth continues but sky views change and Sun orbit affected !!  Image From Atlantic : reproduced .  In Hindu philosophy, a **Brahma day** (also known as a **Kalpa**) is a vast cosmic period that represents one full day in the life of Brahma, the creator god. This period is equivalent to **4.32 billion years** in human terms⁴. A Brahma day consists of **1,000 Mahayugas** (great ages), and each Mahayuga is made up of four Yugas (ages): Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dvapara Yuga, and Kali Yuga². After the completion of a Brahma day, there is an equally long Brahma night, during which the universe undergoes dissolution before the cycle of creation begins anew². This concept highlights the immense scale of time in Hindu cosmology and reflects the cycles of creation and dissolution that are central to the universe's rhythm. Is there a specific aspect of this concept you're curious about? Source: Conversat...

Are we experiencing life in a world already extinct millions of years ago?

Image
It’s not rare that my mind feels we are actually living in a world that might have been extinct millions of years ago!     As per Vishnu Sahasra Namam, part of Mahabharata authored by Sri Vedavyasa, Brahma praises his own father Sri Vishnu as Sahasra Yuga Dharane namaha . That if we take as life time for Brahama from his own birth before start of creation and own liberation annihilating the entire creation to join that realm which has no cycles of birth and death. —-ever present abode of Sri Narayana as per Brahmasutra and described in Sri Bhagavad Gita too. That is 1000x10^7x4.32 m or 4.32x 10^16 solar years.        The time scale of Sri Vishnu who is said to create and maintain this universe merely by a wish within less than a second of His time . This translates as the equivalent to 10^16 solar years is my submission. This is  followed by equal time period of yoga Nidra or entire universe transformed back in to suspended particles. So the process of...

For dummies like me, understanding Hilbert space and play of energy beams around my Atma ! : Using my Buddy Co-Pilot

Image
For dummies what is the Hilbert space and how does it help us? Hilbert space is a concept from mathematics and quantum mechanics that may sound complex, but let's break it down in a simple way: **Hilbert Space Basics:** - **Definition**: Think of it as an infinite-dimensional space, much like how we think of 3-dimensional space, but with potentially endless dimensions. - **Vectors**: In this space, you have vectors (like arrows) that can represent different states or points. - **Inner Product**: It has a special way to measure angles and distances between these vectors, called the inner product. This helps in defining concepts like orthogonality (perpendicularity) and length. **How it Helps Us:** - **Quantum Mechanics**: Hilbert spaces are fundamental in quantum mechanics. They provide the framework for describing quantum states and their evolution. - **Wave Functions**: Quantum states are represented as wave functions, which are essentially vectors in a Hilbert space. This helps i...
