surrender in union
1 child is in union with mother, and so drenched in her love ,and mother too, vice versa
so both are in surrender to each other,
mother commands child just obeys
child commands , mother just obeys
2 as long as this unity prevails, wonderful things happen between them love flowing to and from
as child slowly grows up to know the world, a gentle growth of separation starts happening, as child innocently gaining his individuality, , and at times starts asserting his wishes,
as growth take place, love tapers, surrender vanishes , troubles crop up, paradise lost
so the solution is again is to gain back that unity , with mother, ie the creator god,
in samadhi total surrender happens , and paradise regained
man and god in love with each other, and each in surrender to other
yes, yes yes
god surrenders to the devotee
yatheenam brahma bhavathi sarathi, ......,, god is bhaktha paraadheena
key is the union
Surrender to ??
1….in the union, there is no duality, so question of surrender will not arise
2….in the duality, one does not know to whom one has to surrender , so surrender cannot not take place
3…..surrender to happen , one must establish the connection to that entity to whom one intends to surrender ………..connection is not same as union, connection is just a familiarity, a working relationship, in which communication happens both ways , both knowing each other , and their relationship / protocol
Without that connection, any amount of sending message of surrender will not reach the receiver, and that kind of surrender will not work. It remains a cry in the wilderness
Most prayers remain unanswered, since the connection is not there, and prayer will not reach the receiver
but receiver is eagerly waiting, ready to answer
Sindooram is a traditional vermilion red or orange-red coloured cosmetic powder from the Indian subcontinent, usually worn by married women along the part of their hairline.[1] In Hindu communities the sindoor is a visual marker of marital status of a woman and ceasing to wear it usually implies widowhood

Scientist in us separates truth an illusion first...he tears off illusion ....artist in us mixes them later , in right proportions prepares cookies asper need...both percieve taste & nutrition, knowing the reality .......................universe is a play of purusha and prakruthi.......para and apara............science and art two together ....reality and illution ...............................................................................please read ....too long ,,,please tolerate ....................................................................... Art and science are two together
Ultimate of science is to become ''all knowing '', omniscient
ultimate of art is to become '' all capable'', omnipotent
-----art n science together both for joy
Misery is due to ignorance

Art n science together for producing maximum happiness with minimum energy , without wasting ,

Science is to know
art is to create
Best creation happens in bliss
anando brahma
''a science is an investigation by means of repeatable experiment to gain useful and testable knowledge'' ----maharishi
''a science is a systematized body of knowledge ''-------usual definition
knowledge has innumerable branches , each branch with gross and subtle levels
All for generating joy ultimately
Krishna is expert in 64 arts
gita is a great artistic creation, as well as a great science of life
he presented a comprehensive vision of science technology and art in simplest words
science is to be ''yogastha'', ie to be come knowledgeable
technology is to ''kuru karmani '' ie to device ways and means of doing the work
art is to ''karma sukaushalam'' , to be performing skillfully , with total mastery on science technology and art of life
Deeper the ocean, stronger, higher and wilder is the rise of the wave
Basis for every artistic creation is the thorough understanding of laws of nature , ie science
A musical composition is created,
but expressed thru a musical instruments like sitar tampura tabala etc which are designed and created with best knowledge of science on relevant materials and processes of design and manufacture , finishing, tuning, upkeep, repair maintenance
Basis for every artistic creation is the thorough understanding of laws of nature , ie science
Science is a march knowing laws from gross to subtle and beyond , it is essentially inward march
art is a march creating master pieces of art , using the basic raw material , ie laws of nature
Art of music is a technique of healing
ie music therapy , gandharva veda details
Gandharva veda is the scientific structure of the art of music producing the most beneficial effects on the individual and environ and the universe, , defining the time and raagas scientifically
God is a great scientist and a great artist of life , master of universe, jagannath
Science is analysis
art is synthesis
Spirituality is both science and art
By realizing the Supreme Reality , it is possible to synthesize science, art, culture, religion and spirituality for the common goal of universal joy and well being
By knowing the ultimate science, one can create a universe of his choice
artists dwell in their created art universe
We must know science of being
then possible to cultivate art of living.......................................................................................................................................Sa re ga ma is science of music
a raaga is artistic out put
In the ultimate zoom out level , all will be superbly ok and beautiful
hence arjun was asked to view situation in the ultimate zoom out, ie vishva roop , total perspective..
Science is factual on the cause and effect
superstition is assumption on the cause and effect
Connoisseur is a provocateur
wisdom =knowledge+intelligence
knowledge without intelligence misleads
intelligence is the basic quality of existence exemplified by the order and purpose of change
Naishkarmyam is the best karma
''Similarities between art and science''
--rather complementarily, prakrithi and purusha
art is creation prakrithi, science is knowledge, purusha
''of beauty and creativity...''
beauty has a lot of science behind it , principles of aesthetics , saundarya shashthra
creativity sprouts from knowledge , inner knowledge
deeper the artist, more creative he is , more beautiful his creation
more of ''sathyam shivam sundaram''
''.even science creates some objects for the benefit or convenience of humanity.''
--every impulse of creation, artistic/ technological is towards producing more and more joy , towards, ultimate bliss
Music is a art medium
but it has the detailed sangeeth shastra behind it
every art has a science basis
''but it is the limitless human artistic mind'' sees some insights, some inner beauty, inner chunk of knowledge , and wants to share the findings and the joy of discoveries with one and all , and so '' creates wonders using some science.'' creates/ selects a medium to express the mysteries experienced in the known /unknown language/idiom , and tries to do it with the best of his abilities yet , he may succeed in giving just a glimpse/ a lead of the vision , since the abstract experiences cannot be expressed fully /clearly by any means, these must be experienced directly
however such leads/ suggestions may click that rare experiences in a few lucky receivers
and they reach the source of that mystery within , like the givers inner source
some writings take one to their own inner depths
for some others it's just a casual reading
In various matters of life there remains a combination of science and art
----since, human personality is a total package
consisting of all the infinite components,
each individual is a scientist, an artist, a seer, a poet , a dancer, a singer, a god, a devil, a dr jekil, a mr hide ---all coexisting , but some get activated , some remain dormant as per occasion, context, need, cause etc
Also for the same inputs, different individuals respond in different ways
for example, if one hears a song, a recitation of a poem, audience responds differently , some become fans, some just listen and forget
also, for the same inputs, the same individual responds differently depending on the situation/ internal or external conditions
for example if a movie is seen, first time it will be exciting , likable, but if seen again it may not be that appealing
And when a song is heard, an individual responds in multi-modes,
the scientist in him sees the sa re ga ma aspect of it and nodes at the precision displayed
the poet in him looks at the lyric/ the bhava /meaning and says wah
the mystique in him enjoys the song , forgetting the earthly plane for a while
the critic / the intellectual in him evaluates the song / rates/ classifies/ appraises
all these processes happen in a synthesized manner, some aspects dominating, some other aspects subdued
there will not be a situation when art alone is seen or science alone is appreciated,
it is a contextual mixed response
The scientist in us
after reaching the goal truth, [vedanta ] , ie sathyam
awakens the artist in us,
who starts creating sub-truths,ie ,the veda / vedic richas,
ie the retail packages of knowledge ,and contextual creations,
ie upanishads, upakhyanas, kaavyaas , ,udanthas, puranas,
prabandhas, epics, dramas, stories, novels, essays, literature,
sculpture, paintings,
,gods, temples, structures, customs, systems, traditions,
along with goodies, necessities, comforts luxuries
---all to bring heavenly existence on earth , in detail,
purposeful, useful, need based, result oriented,
creates a new civilization , obsoleting the worn out ,
updating the times to the present moment
The scientist Einstein tearing off the veil of jagath mithya
peeped into the field of brahma sathyam ,
unifying the matter and energy with his equation E=m c squared
the artist tagore created master pieces, by stretching his existence beyond the visible, local, mundane
blessed are the scientists and artists, they did inherit the heavens
Science reveals truth, uncovering layer by layer progressively , it says ''pot is mud''
it removes all illusions, it frees
art hides truth, art is maya ,it says ''there is no mud, it is a beautiful, colorful , round pot ,, ''
in the charm of shape, size, color, texture, design, embellishment of the pot , the truth of mud is obscured/covered/
science says what is actual truth
art distorts , deshapes, flattens, enlarges, elongates, paints, and hides what is there actually
art shows some thing that is not there
it creates a illusion.
it deludes, lures, deceives, entices, enslaves, binds, limits in time space frame
"Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth." - Pablo Picasso said
single word ''and'' in between tea and coffee has made all the difference
i see infinity in this word '' and'
'if you had said simply '' tea '' or simply ''coffee'', or even ''tea or coffee''both your tea or coffee to me would have become tasteless in life ,
''or'' is a big mischief maker, with this fellow, you will loose half the world mostly we are stuck with ''or''
so i tend to say ''or'' is a devil, choice is limitation , robber
where as ''and'' is god, choice less whole, you have the whole universe in it
one poet kalidas? was too smart to ask the goddess saraswathi, to give both --when she asked him choose one out of two boons she offered
what these two boons , i forgot but here the point is he got unlimted blessing by opting for both, did not loose either"
SAMVADA, VADA, JALPA & VITANDA
Symmetry is when one shape becomes exactly like another if you flip, slide or turn it .
a property of a physical system that is unaffected by certain mathematical transformations as, for example, the work done by gravity on an object, which is not affected by any change in the position from which the potential energy of the object is measured.
| ||
super symmetry is a reality of absolute unmanifest | ||
standardisation vs creativity.
human has two opposing levels of existence simultaneously.
1 non changing and
2 ever changing.
as non changing entity, he would like to standardize on a few, rather on one which can serve all needs at all times.
--so he may not choose to pick new from the infinite choices, leaving them as surplus.
as changing entity he likes to be always ever new in every aspect, so the birth of variety and fashion, once used, then thrown to pick other.
this is eternal ,his interests as per his 2 themes.
his choice, consciously cultivated or happening unconsciously , --is his definition of his personality.
while new leaves and new twigs are born and flourish, the tree still retains its outer bark, to dry and fall on its own, not shaking them off with self efforts.
just to balance, our tradition of giving alms to needy, disposes the olds creatively , overcoming the greed to retain for no purpose.
otherwise the nature's own mechanism of biological decay or insects worms bacteria.
variety some times is a time waster and distraction to ones purpose of living, dissipating in trifles and trivials.
hence, a dress code for spiritual, like sanyasi/brahmachari-----also in present times for students, factory workers, security and others.
finally, nothing is waste, and everything is waste too, as you dwell on things.
spirituality is essentially a cleaning process for human
as if it is a metallurgy, from raw ore, to pig iron, to steel, to steel parts,
as if it is derusting, degreasing, polishing, honing,
and render the mind body absolutely in the fittest possible condition
for the best usage
.
so maintain it by schedule, routine, daily weekly, monthly cleaning processes
with all kinds of appropriate spiritual techniques and processes, including pooja, vratha, fasting,
Standardization in nature .
in creating the beings, nature has done standardization,
we see a lot of common features in the basic structure of all living beings, including trees.
with hardware, [visible structure]
and software [invisible inside} which governs its growth, sustenance and procreation
--in man , animals, insects, a body and mind,
in trees a visible trunk, leaves etc and invisible internal system which gives the direction and energy to mobilize its life processes
a reproductive mechanism with organs
limbs to achieve required tasks
senses of perception and action
also,
in detailing there is standardization like all have two eyes, one mouth , two ears,
but
some flexibility also exists like some insects have 6 feet,
depending on requirements even a deviation like a she dog has 4 pairs of breast to feed 4 at a time
however, newness is not overlooked,
every entity has new form, though features are same
--no two men are alike, no two mango trees are alike, no two cows are alike
standardization and variety going hand in hand,
--infinite variety yet features are standard
old and new existing without disharmony
----designs which are ancient are being created afresh with newness,
all nice doings by nature

Sky is the best costume, i like the most
not needing to search, nor to select ,
not to reject, nor to accept
not to bargain nor to gain
not to buy nor to sell
not to cut nor to stitch
Not to clean nor to wash
not to wet nor to dry
not to press, nor to mess
not to loose, nor to fuss
All other costumes are costly, scarce,
scanty, superfluous ,
waste, worst
they wear, tear , burst, burn,
soak, soil,
no sanctity, less beauty,
not plenty, less novelty
will not last, get cast
saints and philosophers are unique
due to their degree of ability to see the truth of life / truth of god,
and express their cognitions, and live a life of their choice uniquely
according to their level of consciousness
but, the followers normally being at a different level cannot understand, they misunderstand and distort or narrow down, unwittingly, and assume that it is the thing that they said, and try to further pass it down ,
what happens in this process is the purity of teachings is lost, what remains is rituals and superficialities and forcing /imposing/ gaining acceptability by various means, including spiritual promises or incentives and material benefits in the worst case
this has been going on and will ever goes on
but, things will not be the same, all said and done results speak
and disillusionment dawns .and it has to happen and will happen
those who know things better would like to switch over to some thing better and better
i am reminded of
The old order changeth, yielding place to new,
And God fulfills himself in many ways,
Lest one good custom should corrupt the world.”
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Drooping abilities, tiredness, aging, sickness, death are due to various reasons, how one goes thru the life , inputs, and how intelligently one manages himself , also no less hereditary, and it's a individual 's order of priority , some treating it a light matter, some taking good care of themselves but everyone would like to lead a good life , this aspiration of man invariably gets exploited by everywhere. every and promises a heaven to promote sale . and some do succeed in netting in gullible customers. but nature's laws cannot be deceived , cause and effect none can escape"
Stupidity
stupidity and cupidity both flourishthey never will perish

Sir,
from your name i thought you were a 'rishi' ... now i wonder whether you were just inspired by rishi vishwamitra ;0 ...

Rishi Vasanth in reply to Rati Hegde
Rishi vasanth learns many lessons from vishvamithra,
good lessons from his thapasya, he gets inspired
bad lessons from his apahasya with menaka, he gets wiser
if to fall, why to ride up
how vasanth has come to be a rishi , not a process of selecting a nick name,
it is a natural qualification earned after enough sadhana inputs .
not any one can put dr, as his name, unless he is mbbs
i welcome more queries on'' rishi '', and how to become , how long it takes, how to / who to certify

Rishiji,
i am too small a person to question another person's qualifications or status ... i liked your post, but saw it in a lighter way ...
as far as Vishwamitra goes, i do Naman to the person who gave the world the Gayatri Mantra in its present form ... everybody can learn from Vishwamitra & his struggles to become a Brahma Rishi ... even his 'affair' with Menaka had the good result of giving us King Bharat after whom our great country gets one of its names.
i am not a person who is learned in the Vedas or Shastras .. all that i know i have learnt from my Guru - Jagadguru Shankaracharya Shree Shree Raghaveshwara Bharati Swamiji of Shree Ramachandrapura Matha, Gokarna, Karnataka. when you say that you are inspired by me, i feel proud to belong to this country where the greatest of people have taught others that one can learn even from the smallest of people. so my Naman to you too for your humility.
do write a blog on how to become a Rishi .. i shall definitely read it with great interest ....

Consequently there are so many social ills occurring from such a situation as predicted in Bhagavad Gita (1:40-41) :

jaayate varna-sankarah

"When irreligion is prominent in the family, O Krishna, the women of the family become polluted, and from the degradation of womanhood, O descendant of Vrishni, comes unwanted (inter-mixed) progeny."
"An increase of unwanted (inter-mixed) population certainly causes hellish life for both the family and for those who destroy the family tradition. The ancestors of such corrupt families fall down, because the performances for offering them food and water after death through ritual (pinda or shraddha) are entirely stopped."

On the destruction of a tribe the ancient virtue of the tribe and family is lost; with the loss of virtue, vice and impiety overwhelm the whole of a race. From the influence of impiety the females of a family grow vicious; and from women that are become vicious are born the spurious caste called Varna-Sankara. Corruption of caste is a gate of hell, both for these destroyers of a tribe and for those who survive; and their forefathers, being deprived of the ceremonies of cakes and water offered to their manes, sink into the infernal regions. By the crimes of the destroyers of a tribe and by those who cause confusion of caste, the family virtue and the virtue of a whole tribe are forever done away with; and we have read in sacred writ, O Krishna, that a sojourn in hell awaits those mortals whose generation hath lost its virtue.
The following is from http://members.nbci.com/hknetworks/MarriageCompat- NoIllicitSex.htm
There is no question or thought for family, lineage, gotra etc., only fulfilment of lusty desires. This is the common manner that so-called human society has diminished to in the present time. Consequently there are so many social ills occurring from such a situation as predicted in Bhagavad Gita (1:40-41) :

Google ''varna sankara''
quote
In the glorious days, or before the advent of the age of Kali, the brāhmaṇas, the cows, the women, the children and the old men were properly given protection.
1. The protection of the brāhmaṇas maintains the institution of varṇa and āśrama, the most scientific culture for attainment of spiritual life.
2. The protection of cows maintains the most miraculous form of food, i.e., milk for maintaining the finer tissues of the brain for understanding higher aims of life.
3. The protection of women maintains the chastity of society, by which we can get a good generation for peace, tranquillity and progress of life.
4. The protection of children gives the human form of life its best chance to prepare the way of liberty from material bondage. Such protection of children begins from the very day of begetting a child by the purificatory process of garbhādhāna-saṁskāra, the beginning of pure life.
5. The protection of the old men gives them a chance to prepare themselves for better life after death.
This complete outlook is based on factors leading to successful humanity as against the civilization of polished cats and dogs. The killing of the above-mentioned innocent creatures is totally forbidden because even by insulting them one loses one's duration of life. In the age of Kali they are not properly protected, and therefore the duration of life of the present generation has shortened considerably. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is stated that when the women become unchaste for want of proper protection, there are unwanted children called varṇa-saṅkara. To insult a chaste woman means to bring about disaster in the duration of life. Duḥśāsana, a brother of Duryodhana, insulted Draupadī, an ideal chaste lady, and therefore the miscreants died untimely. These are some of the stringent laws of the Lord mentioned above.

Varna-sankara population means a population who cannot say who is his father. That is varna-sankara. Or which caste does he belong, what is his father, what is his family. No, nothing, no information. That is called varna-sankara. So when the varna-sankara population increases, then the whole world becomes hell.
