Art of living of soul For Bapuji
ANANT: - Param shanti Baapuji, today we would like to know what art of living is? How should
one live a peaceful life, because in living a life there are lot of things being told
in different scriptures like in Geeta also , there is a mention about soul and how to
make it progress. How can the jeev (Soul) become Shiv and in reality what is the meaning
of art of living? Bapuji:-
In today’s world if you see the way all the gurus (Masters or saint) tell you about
art of living which is nothing but the art of how to live a life ,speak more on how to
improve health by teaching some exercises or vidhis (spiritual practices) . There focus
is more on body, how to improve that, example Hatt yog (type of yoga). They say according
to what all is given by scriptures or Vedas. But the human soul which aims or whose spiritual
goal is becoming a Shiv from a simple soul what about that? The knowledge or art of living
related just to the body is good and is very normal these days but what should be the art
for soul or knowledge after it has left the body?
ANANT: - Baapuji the main thing is how the soul should reach the Amar lok (immortal divine
world) from Mrutyu lok (earth or human life)? From 5 tattvas (elements) world how should
the soul reach the param tattva (supreme elements) world? Because there, the body of the soul
completely gets transformed in terms of elements, for example Manomaya sharir (mind with 5 elements
i.e. Earth, water, wind, fire and space) or praanmaya sharir (vital energy body). As you
have said that in the upper world the 5 elemental bodies cannot enter as the formation is different
there. So how should we reach there? This question is of prime importance.
Bapuji:- So when the soul leaves the body, what should
be the art for living for the soul, is what I will be telling you now. Like people speak
about life after death, a video is also made on that previously. And it said “ant mati
so gati” (whatever you have in your mind at the time of death is what shall catch pace
after death in terms of knowledge or quality). but if your soul has the knowledge that it
wants to go to Amar lok (divine world) or param dhaam (power house) or you have to become
a superior soul like shiv from jeev (soul in human form) then how will you go, what
is the process or way for that? So I tell you how to progress your soul or make it successful.
The main thing about the progress of a souls is, till the time it is in human form, it
is 5 elements and we also know that soul is immortal, victorious and unconquerable and
it never dies. It only leaves the body after death, so after death if your soul remains
and live in Mrutyu lok (world of birth and death) it will keep wandering. in the scriptures
also it is mentioned that if it has attachment with the loved ones it stays back in their
houses and if it is desire less or without attachment and wishes to go to Amar lok for
example this is our sun and this is our earth and if you want to travel from bhu lok (human
world) to swarg lok (heaven) or swalok which is our 3rd world via bhuvarlok so it can reach
there if its nashto moha (detached and desire less). And if it does vikarma (bad deeds)
then it goes to paatal lok (hell) or either one of the 7 paatal lok. There are 55 crore
different narak (hell). The souls also goes in these loks depending upon the sins or bad
deeds it did in its life. The soul should first have the knowledge that it has to go
in the upper world and if it does have then what should such type of soul do? The first
subject is gyaan (knowledge), it should have knowledge and should have a spiritual goal
which is, after death I have to go in upper worlds. So after death the soul leaves the
body which is also called as antwaagh sharir (3 elements body- space, fire and wind) or
the sukshma sharir (subtle body). With help of antwaagh sharir you will be able to reach
the swarg lok. Souls also do purshaadh (penance) to reach to swarg lok. There is maya (delusion
of mind) and moh (attachment) present even in the swarg lok. And if you have the knowledge
that you are not supposed to get stuck in Moh or maya then you will go even higher to
4th lok Mahanlok. Even the gods are mayavi (creator of delusion in minds) and get stuck
in moh and maya of swarg lok. If souls spiritual goal is to go to shiv (creator of this solar
system) niraakar (formless) it does purshaadh (penance). Niraakar shiv stays in param dhaam
(power house). How does shiv niraakar look? Like the sun which we see is made of Agni
tattva (fire element) which is very bright but the niraakar shiv in param dhaam is param
light (divine light) or param Prakash (supreme bright light). The yog vidhi (meditation method)
is to visualize with help of your mind the niraakar shiv at param dhaam. Yog means to
think or remember, so whom will you remember? If a human soul wants to become shiv then
it has to think of him constantly during yog. Whoever you keep thinking during yog, is what
you become and eventually you will reach there. When you think of shiv constantly with help
of yog, slowly and gradually the power will come in soul from the niraakar shiv of param
dhaam, your soul will become powerful. Karma yogi (disciple who achieves perfection in
action) is what you should aim at becoming which is every moment you think of niraakar
shiv. Remind yourself of your spiritual goal which is that I have to become shiv from jeev,
and go to param dhaam. Even in sleep imagine or think that you are sleeping in param dhaam
and I am in light swaroop (form). Soul are in light form so think of it every moment.
Think about the divya swaroop (light form) or divya buddhi (divine mind). By doing this
your mind will get transformed. Because inside soul there is Mann (mind), buddhi (brain)
and sanskar (values or nature). Inside atma (soul) there is Mann (mind) and inside Mann
there is buddhi (brain) and inside that there is sanskar. So when you start doing this firstly
your karma (actions) will change, your thinking will change. And always think about doing
good for the universe or existence, by this you will not think negative about anyone.
Always be positive and think everyone as the children of the almighty because the soul
is the child of the almighty. ANANT :- So that is why god Krishna in Mahabharata
said to Arjun, “ hey Arjun don’t do actions just by seeing this lifetime or this birth
but see the future time and then act, because the actions you do in this birth, you will
get the result or fruits in next birth”. Baapuji: - so what do you want to achieve
in your next birth? For next birth you will have to do the preparation in this life, isn’t
it? You are living this life and after your death if your life dint have a spiritual goal
then what? But if your goal is to become shiv in next birth then what should you be doing.
You should have the knowledge of niraakar shiv who stays in param dhaam. When you keep
thinking of him your soul will get power. And if your soul gets power then Mann, buddhi
and sanskar will become pure. Once they become pure your soul will become pure.
ANANT: - Baapuji I would like to stop you in middle. I had this question, like in scriptures
it is written if during shivratri (festival of god shiv) if you put bael pata (aegle marmelos
leaves) on shiv linga or if you worship with panchaungmruta, it is considered that all
your previous births sin are washed away. Likewise there are many beliefs or theories
like this in bhakti Marg (devotional path). So in reality how do I understand this with
help of our knowledge? Is it that we remember the god from our mind and will it work in
the same way as it does for the person of bhakti Marg?
Bapuji:- The story which people of bhakti Marg say
or is said, people have been listening to these from crore number of years. The story
is good ok. I am not saying anything about the belief but you should have the practical
knowledge .all this is ok. Like in bhakti Marg the way you listen about Ramayana and
Mahabharata, you are also listening to the story about shiv. There are lot of stories
of shiv in shiv puraan (scriptures on shiv) in bhakti Marg. but what I am telling you
is not a story. There is a difference between story and practical knowledge. That is why
in Holy Book of Geeta, what did god Krishna say? “You first try to know me”. How will
you know me, it is through gyaan (knowledge). If you want to achieve god then the way is
through knowledge. Knowledge about who is the god or shiv? First remember or know shiv.
Have the goal of shiv. In Holy book of Geeta it is also said, “You don’t get me by
*** (chanting), tap (penance), dhyaan (meditation) and yog (connection) which are all forms of
bhakti but you will find me by gyaan (knowledge). The fruit of bhakti is gyaan. When the human
soul does lot of devotion at that time the knowledge gets emerged out of soul. At that
time the soul gets knowledge. Vairaag (detachment) comes.
ANANT: - So shivratri (attaining shiv) is possible from?
Bapuji:- For shivaatva attainment the soul should have
the goal for shivaatva then it will have the knowledge and shiv power in the soul to attain
it. Shiv stays in param dhaam in form of param Prakash (supreme light) and not param tattva.
So after death slowly you will reach shiv by first crossing bhulok, bhuvarlok, swarg
lok, Maha lok and Jan lok and so on. The soul in the subtle body will also keep getting
lighter as it will go higher. The 3 elemental body will also keep getting lighter and you
will keep moving higher from tap lok, Jan lok and then you will reach brahma puri then
to Vishnu puri and after that shiv puri. Finally will reach param dhaam. In param dhaam the
soul will slowly become niraakar (formless) ANANT: - Baapuji this might be taking many
lakhs of years to reach there? Bapuji:-
No, if you have higher goal in life then your soul will gain speed. It does take time, as
the soul has infinite birth’s sins and actions recording in it and it has to first destroy
all those sins. So before all this in this birth itself the human soul should not do
any negative action or commit sins which will bring negativity in mind or soul.so if your
goal is higher, then after the soul has left the body it gets speed as we know “ant mati
so gati” whatever is there in the soul at the time of death will get more speed after
the soul leaves the body. So if your goal is higher or mati which is mind if it has
the wish to reach swarg lok then it slowly reaches there. It doesn’t take lakhs of
years to reach there. Once you start going upwards slowly the speed of the soul increases.
For example it doesn’t take much time to reach Vishnu puri which is vaikunt from brahma
puri. And from there you can proceed to shiv puri.
ANANT: - Like how it is believed that god’s 1 day is equivalent to 1 year on earth.
Bapuji:- Yes so if you go to Vishnu puri, brahma’s
1 day is equal to 1 thousand chatur yug on earth. Which we say the correlation between
the time, space and speed. ANANT: - so Baapuji how much time will be
needed for a soul to reach Shiv puri?
Bapuji: - it depends on how much a soul is desperate or wishes to go, how much powerful
is its goal? If the goal is very powerful then, as we say “nashto moha smriti lapta”
(when mind becomes detached it attains speed) I will tell you about the olden days in which
people would go to kaashi to do kaashi karvat (going in round direction of that place).
So people would pray to god shiv and do kaashi karvat. The souls would sacrifice the bodies
in the well. The body would get destroyed into pieces and the soul would leave and come
out of the body. At that time it was said that the soul after leaving the body would
straight reach or emerge in shiv puri. These stories are there in shiv puraan. The soul
in 1 second emerges in shiv puri by doing the kaashi karvat. As it reaches there, the
shiv and Shakti live there in akaari roop (3 element body). It will not take much time
to reach param dhaam from shiv puri. So if the soul’s goal is higher and determined,
it will gain lot of speed and it will not take much time for it to reach there. And
eventually the soul will become shiv and will reach the niraakar. At param dhaam it becomes
similar to shiv, there is no form that’s why it becomes formless over there.it does
not have any body or form. It become free from karma bondage. First we have sukshma
jagat (subtle world) above which we have kaaran jagat and after that is the param dhaam. So
in the beginning you have subtle body then kaaran sharir and then eventually this body
also gets over. The soul then becomes formless. It is in state of kevalya awastha (detachment
of soul from matter, leading to eternal happiness or emancipation). When the soul reaches param
dhaam it becomes immortal. ANANT:-So does that soul get one with the
shiv and loses its identity? Bapuji:-
If the soul has a wish to be liberated then it dissolves or becomes one with shiv niraakar
which is supreme light. By this its existence is over as it gets liberated. But the souls
which stay in niraakar state in param dhaam .They have jeevan mukti (liberation from life),
they do have life .It is also called as poorna brahma or shivoham or aham brahmaasmi. That
means it becomes shiv. Shiv is also called as brahma...it becomes equal to brahma also.
We can also call it Paar brahma parmeshwar.after becoming niraakar it gains all the knowledge
of the entire galaxy ANANT: - so once the soul has gone up or reached
param dhaam it does not have the wish to come back or take birth again?
Bapuji: - That this soul knows, why will it come down?
Once it has reached param dhaam it won’t come down again. If it wants mukti (liberation),
it can become one with niraakar shiv or param Prakash (supreme light).
ANANT: - so is this the art of living of soul? Baapuji:-
This is the art of living of the soul. I give knowledge on the soul’s art of living. Lot
of people on the other hand tell about how to make the human life more successful. But
I tell about art of living of soul. So this in short I have explained. For the rest, you
need lot of knowledge. The other topics are covered in my other videos. Once the soul
gains the knowledge of shiv, if it wishes it can also become Maha Shiv. People celebrate
Maha shivratri but they are unaware of the difference between shiv and Maha shiv. Maha
shivratri comes once in a year but shivratri comes in every month. So what is the difference
between both of them? Maha shiv is the creator of infinite galaxies and shiv is the creator
of one galaxy which is 1 light year which is 1 solar system. And Maha shiv is the king
of Maha param dhaam. So when the soul reaches or attains shiv it get transformed into param
Prakash (supreme light). When this happens it even gets the power to reach the Maha shiv
and also the knowledge as to how to reach Maha param dhaam. Then the journey of group
of niraakar souls which are present at param dhaam begins. They go to the galaxy’s centre
point where Maha shiv resides in Maha param dhaam. Like we have param dhaam we also have
Maha param dhaam. There we have Maha brahma, Maha Vishnu and Maha Indra also staying or
residing in there. So in a galaxy there are billions of suns or solar systems. Maha shiv
is the creator of infinite galaxies. So when Maha shiv becomes Maha Kaal, it creates Maha
Agni (supreme fire) and it takes in infinite galaxies within each cell of its. This is
also written in the scriptures and mythological books. Once the soul has become Maha shiv
it gains the knowledge of param Maha shiv and can also reach the Maha param dhaam of
param Maha shiv. Even beyond that the Maha shiv category’s soul form a group and travel
to the centre point of universe where the param Maha shiv resides. So the soul if it
wants can become shiv then Maha shiv then param Maha shiv. Go to the centre point of
the universe where we have the Maha param dhaam .if it wishes it can go beyond this
as well. After the soul has transformed from jeev to shiv, it doesn’t take much time.
It can reach Maha param dhaam within 1 second. The soul gains the power of param Prakash
(divine or supreme light).it gets infinite power of the supreme light, the power equivalent
to crore suns. As the shiv can run crore of suns it has lot of power, similarly Maha shiv
will have even more power than shiv.there are crore of sun revolving in galaxy which
are moving due to the power of Maha shiv. All this is very complex. But if the soul
wants it can become anything it wishes like shiv, Maha shiv etc. but now a days the soul
doesn’t have the knowledge about all this. Everyone is busy telling different types of
Yogs or practices to make human life better but they don’t speak on the proceedings
for the soul. How should the soul become. It should be free of attachment or desires.
Interviewer: - Baapuji you explained us very well. That in reality this art of living is
for our soul. And if our soul wishes it can become shiv from jeev and then Maha shiv or
param param Maha shiv.it can also travel infinite galaxies. And if it wants then in this human
life itself it can gain knowledge for all this. We have made a playlist in which all
the knowledge about this is given, examples topics like history of universe, soul travelling
etc. all the knowledge is explained sequentially. All the followers of Baaapuji who want to
understand this knowledge should began the journey of becoming shiv and beyond, starting
from jeev. And in reality understand the true art of living and also spread this to others.
This is also the goal of Baapuji that every human understands and gains the knowledge
of soul and how to go beyond just human life. Param shanti.
