The Essence of Being Human: Exploring Consciousness | Kartikeya Das

The Essence of Being Human: Exploring Consciousness | Kartikeya Das

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA  https://krishnabff.blogspot.com/2023/07/the-essence-of-being-human-exploring.html 1  So I'll focus on one topic that is consciousness  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=4  2  who am I ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=18  3  This is established in Shrimad Bhagawat Gita chapter 2 text 13  https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/2/13/  it says Two words Deha (body) and the possessor of the deha (or body) is called as Dehi and that is all of us and very firmly this point is established that all of us we are not this body but we are spirit soul within the body,   And therefore when someone dies, what do we say ? the person has passed away or the body is there in front. Who has passed away ? The person has passed away from the body, therefore the point established is we are spirit soul  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=84   4 So now the question comes what is consciousness ? So when we say spirit soul, the symptom of the spirit soul is consciousness Therefore whenever we see a living and a dead what's the difference between the two ? the presence of consciousness,  So as soon as a person dies the spirit soul leaves, there's no consciousness. All of us sitting here we're conscious beings  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=143  5 But you know that this consciousness is also at different levels. The lowest level of consciousness is called as Annamaya, Maya means full, Anna means food, so full of food So these personalities at this level of consciousness, they keep thinking about food all the time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=168  6 I don't know how many of you had this experience playing with a kid having few teeth in front and the kid is there around holding your hand or your finger and you're talking to someone and the finger goes into the mouth and that is why the kids are like that because they are on the platform of Annamaya, you'll see them putting anything and everything in the mouth so at this level of consciousness, the person only thinks about his own enjoyment   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=192  7  Okay let's go a bit higher Going a little higher the next one is called as Praanmay, Prana means life, full of life. What does that mean, now the person understands that he has an existence and he has to maintain it, for example again say a child puts his hand in fire, will he ever dare to do that again ?  and we have the saying the burned child dreads the fire, so now the child realizes now I have to maintain my existence, he'll never touch the fire, so at this level of consciousness called Praanmay, so the person is very much aware about his existence and he tries his best to defend himself, protect himself and this is what is all about Praanmay consciousness.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=223  8 In Mahabharat there is one beautiful shloka which talks about what are these two levels, what activities these two levels of consciousness people do ? So it is described that four activities eating, sleeping enjoyment of sex and defense.  These are the four instincts which all the animals do and along with that even humans at the lowest level of consciousness of Annamaya and Praanmay focus only on this, my enjoyment, my protection, that's it  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=280  9 let's go a little higher now we saw Annamaya, Praanmay, the next one is Manomay, Manomay means full of Mind, now the person thinks about what he's thinking, he tries to refine his thought process, intellectual pursuit, he wants to be a better person now, so now what he does is, he starts Thinking, is it proper or is it not proper ?  like for example say he gets angry and he's thinking is it okay to be angry now ? how should I react, how should I respond ? what am I supposed to do ? anyways the matter is not so serious, let's not be angry now and he withholds his anger, just think about it, now the same person is going higher in his consciousness level, now he starts thinking how to behave how to react or how to respond  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=330  10 Okay let's go to a bit higher consciousness, now the higher one is called as Vigyanmay, full of knowledge, now such a person is aware or trying to be aware that he is not this body but a spirit soul, he understands this and he also understands that each and everyone, even the nonhuman species is a living entity, is a spirit Soul,  as soon as he understands that, his dealings become different his dealings become very nice, he tries to serve everyone, isn't that amazing, up to his capacity He tries his best, I'll try to Help  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t= 388  11 But then there is some highest level of consciousness, that's called as Anandmay, full of Happiness, at this level the person is aware, he's conscious of God, he's conscious of his relationship with God, he's conscious of each and every living entity's relationship with God and his relationship with the living entities and now at this level he goes to any extent, even at the cost of his own life, to help the other personalities.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=434  12 A very wonderful incident about extent of the helping nature of such a person  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=471  13 So this is the level of a person who is there on Anandmay platform. Therefore this question comes why should I raise my consciousness level ? because when I raise my consciousness level with higher and higher consciousness, one thing is I'll be able to relish deeper stability, security and satisfaction.  The person will be very blissful. I'm sure after hearing this you might be asking this question to yourself, how to raise this consciousness How should I do That ? The only thing that I'm supposed to do is purify the consciousness by spiritual practice. Every single day one should have spiritual practice (sadhana)  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=547  14 a profound spiritual practice called mantra meditation, so effective, so wonderful, that one can surely experience the change within and the raising of one's own consciousness. Let's do some practical now.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=633  15 but let's begin Maha Mantra महा मंत्र = हरे कृष्ण हरे कृष्ण,कृष्ण कृष्ण हरे हरे ,हरे राम हरे राम, राम राम हरे हरे,  Let's offer a silent prayer to the Lord, let's beg and pray to Him that He helps all of us to elevate our consciousness and be a very nice instrument in the society,  so that before we leave our body, we should be able to serve at least a few and at the time of death we leave our body with a smile on the face,  So let's pray for all our near and dear ones, let's pray for all the living entities all around the creation and end the mantra meditation session, the essence of being human is raising one's consciousness level to such an extent that everyone around feels it.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4V5fHPGwYA&t=771

How to be Happy in Life? | Learn This One Secret to Find Real Happiness by Swami Mukundanand

How to be Happy in Life? | Learn This One Secret to Find Real Happiness by Swami Mukundanand

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM  1  The biggest belief that we will establish within ourselves is in regard to happiness where are we convinced we can get true happiness. That one decision will determine the trajectory of our life.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=0 2 If somebody firmly believes that happiness is in money, his entire energy his entire effort is spent in the pursuit of earning money, if somebody believes that happiness is in achieving prestige and things then that is where his entire energy goes,  if somebody believes happiness is in God then he strives to know and love God so this puzzle regarding happiness needs to be solved to put our life in the proper course  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=18 3 there was once a crew that became unhappy about his state, he thought I have this dark and ugly color, if I were a swan I would be white coloured and so happy the crew went to the swan and said mr. swan you must be the happiest bird in contrast to me, you have this milk white color  the swan said mr. crow I thought I should be happy until I saw the parrot and then I realized I am a single colored bird he is a double colored bird, he is the one who must be happy the crow then went on to meet the parrot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=66 4  and he said mr. parrot you have this green color given to you by God and you also have a tinge of red in certain places, these two colors of yours in contrast to my single dye color, you must be a very happy bird,   the parrot said I thought I was happy until I saw the peacock and the luscious platter of colors of the peacock’s tail that made me really miserable, the crow in his search for the secret of happiness then continued and found a peacock  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=122 5 he said mr. peacock, God has created you with great affection he has filled your tail blumes with such rich violets and Indigos and greens and blues you must be really happy bird,  the peacock said mr. crow, I thought I should be happy but because of all those colors I was put into the zoo, if I did not have such attractive colors, then I would have been a free bird, the crow then realized nobody seems to be happy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=163 6  What then is the secret of happiness ? According to our Vedas, there is one kind of happiness that degrades you, if you run after it, it pulls you down and there is another kind of happiness that uplifts you.  The first kind of happiness is called "preya" and the second kind of happiness is called "shreya".  The Kathopnishad states"verse" if you run after "shreya" your life will become auspicious and blessed but if you run after "preya" it will be a pathway to hell, what is "preya" and what is "shreya".  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=210 7 "preya"is that happiness which seems to be extremely sweet right now but later on it turns bitter like poison - like for example if you choose to have a third helping of the ice-cream to satiate (satisfy) the tastebuds of the palate (tongue),  it is sweet no doubt but later on after a few years when your cholesterol has started increasing and the arteries start getting clogged, you realize, oh my god, this is the cause of untold suffering  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=281 8 and on the other hand shreya is that happiness which is bitter right now but later on it becomes very sweet - like for example if you have to get up in the morning and spend 40 minutes doing your yoga asanas, it's not so pleasing to the mind,  however it bestows you good health and a comfortable long life, so shreya seems to be bitter in the present and that is why the mind seeks to run away from it.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=325 9 This is the enigma (puzzle) of life, things which are beneficial are often difficult and things that are enjoyable in the present are often harmful. I remember when I was a child,  I would often think at the age of seven or eight, why is it that all the tasty things are bad for health and things that are good for health are not tasty there is a saying in Hindi “आमले का खाया और बड़ों का कहा बाद में पता चलता है”  Amla is the Indian gooseberry, it has the vitamin C of ten oranges plus it is rich in antioxidants, so naturally if you eat the Amla it will build up your body immunity, your chances of catching a cold or virus will reduce by 95%, if you have an Amla every day  but the catch is that the fresh Amla is bitter to taste and when the mother offers the Amla to her child the child resists, at that time the mother says, my child the benefits of this you will realize later on, interestingly if you keep the Amla in your mouth for just a few minutes that bitterness turns into sweetness  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=375 10 in regard to shreya happiness, there is a Sanskrit verse "the student who runs after immediate happiness will have to reject knowledge and one who is a Vidyarthi, the seeker of knowledge, will have to reject immediate happiness.  Similarly in life, the good things always lie upstream, in other words to reach them, we need to embrace discipline, austerity, hardship and the mind rebels against it. If you listen to the mind, there's a good chance you will make a wrong decision.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=470 11 I was once travelling in an Indian bus and there was a clam (someone who is secretive, silent, or uncommunicative) who came and sat on the next seat I did not realize it at that time, when we both got off on the same bus stand, he started walking,  I found that he had a high-heeled sandal on one foot and the other foot was bare, so he was limping along, I thought poor guy he's suffering so much, I asked the clam, have you lost a sandal ?  he said no baba ji, I have found a sandal, he unnecessarily brought misery onto himself, he found the sandal he didn't have to wear it but by wearing it he has become miserable, so similarly when we choose happiness in the wrong place that becomes the cause of our miseries hence with our intellect we need to analyze and understand where is the real happiness that will satisfy me  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=535 12 one disciple went to his guru he was in the pursuit of happiness, so he sold off all his possessions made a bundle of his little treasures and along with that money came to the guru and said guru dev I am a seeker of happiness, can you explain to me how I will become happy ?  the guru snatched the bundle from his hand and started running, the disciple thought I had come to find happiness and I have lost my lifetime treasures, at least let me get these back, so he chased his guru in hot pursuit, now the guru would keep ducking into the side lanes and the disciple was quickly after him, finally after two kilometres the disciple caught up with the guru and snatched the bundle back,  the Guru said are you happy now ? the disciple said yes, the guru said, look, happiness is not in these objects, you had the object earlier also, you were not happy and now that you have it, you are happy, the happiness that you experienced was merely the satiation (satisfaction) of the desires, the pain that the desire had created was eliminated and you are thinking I am happy.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=612 13  The real happiness is in God "verse" Taitriyopanishad says that God is the ocean of happiness and upon reaching Him, we will become truly happy,  so how will we reach God ? very simple, when we cleanse our hearts, when we purify our mind,  in other words real happiness will only be experienced by growing from within, by becoming a better person from inside, if we can understand this one important point, then rather than running around for external enhancements, we will give priority in our life for internal growth  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=707 14 think about it, many of you may be in your forties or fifties, you have been running for external progress for so many lifetimes, what priority have you accorded in your life for inner growth and  because that inner growth has not taken place the external progress is not leading to fulfillment.  Now reverse the priority, give more importance to the inner victories, make it your primary value in life to become a better person and the better we become from inside, the closer we will find we are to genuine happiness that satisfies you soon.  So let us establish this full conviction within ourselves that to be happy, it's not that we need tremendous amount of money or fame or titles or houses etc. - all we need is to become better people - when that is our conviction, when that is our faith and our belief, then the trajectory of our life will be auspicious will be beneficial, will be uplifting & will be sublime. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN0ae0xhlVM&t=782 Standby link (in case youtube link does not work) How to be Happy in Life Learn This One Secret to Find Real Happiness Swami Mukundananda JKYog.mp4
