BRAHMAVIDYA - the ultimate spirituality


Book Description

‘BRAHMAVIDYA - the ultimate spirituality’ ….. A new book is born …to clear many of the confusions in the field of spirituality. It introduces you to your Reality as the single eternal entity, birthless and deathless, unchallenged by anything, facing no threat from anywhere, not under the watchful eye of any super-being, not governed by anyone ….standing on your own foundation …as Awareness, Consciousness, Cosmic Consciousness (Brahmam). You are the seer of the world – the eye of the world; you lend reality to the world by cognizing the existence of the world. You are AWARENESS eternal…. a far greater reality than the universe. If one has the intention of reading only one book in life, it should be this , because it opens up in front of you a highway to self-realisation – an escape route from further births and deaths. The choice is very serious – involving your eternal existence; one as a single entity – peaceful and unchallenged, and the other as a limited entity (in jeeva bhaavam) in suffering life after life eternally. All other books tell you stories about this world and the present body; and keep you blinded about your eternity. And this book also holds a great contribution towards lasting world peace – by showing what religion is, intelligently. Your own awareness is Brahmam – nothing different, nothing separate, nothing bigger or smaller – just the same. This book makes this clear with the help of Upanishads and with the words used in the Brahmavidya meditation. The whole world is flooded with spiritual pauperity. Nothing worthwhile is seen anywhere, with the exception of some Upanishads. And whatever brilliant guidance offered by these Upanishads are also misinterpreted by teachers steeped in misconceptions …with hopeless incapacity to see the reality. ‘BRAHMAVIDYA - the ultimate spirituality’ holds out a hope to humanity in this situation. Its vision is clear. It sees the Upanishads in their correct sense. Have a look …and see how the Four Great Sayings (mahavakya-s) become easily acceptable even to the sharpest of intellects. It does not call for any blind belief. It perfectly appeals to the intellect, looked from the stand-point of this book. Place YOUR OWN AWARENESS in the place of THE SUPER POWER presented to you so far …and see how well it fits! This book establishes some acceptable theories; while shaking up some questionable beliefs. When you try to understand the Great Saying ‘Aham Brahmasmi’ (I am Brahmam), you stumble on a mis-match. The age-old belief that Brahmam is omnicient and omnipotent comes in the way. BRAHMAVIDYA - the ultimate spirituality clears this block, with the help of Upanishads. The mission of this book is very serious – to save you from the eternal cycle of births and deaths, suffering in 8.4 million casts (moulds/types) of bodies. Failure to utilise the present human body to slip out of this cycle amounts to spiritual suicide.

Brahmavidya or The Knowledge of the Ultimate Reality


Book Description

This is the fifth of a series of small books under the head "Satchidaananda Vaak-Jyoti' or "The Enlightening Words of Satchidaananda". All these booklets contain a free transliteration of the enlightening and immortal words and teachings of Shri Satchidaanandendra Saraswati Swamiji, of revered memory, found in his numerous Kannada books. Those readers who do not have the facility and advantage of reading and understanding books in the Kannada language will be immensely benefited by these English publications written in simple language and style. This small plan of publishing these 'gems of spiritual literature', unrivalled in their esoteric import and teachings of the highest order and based on the pristine pure original Bhashyas of Adi Shankara, was first mooted by Shri D. B. Gangolli, a devotee and admirer of Swamiji. It is an irony of our times that even that great Acharya's immaculate teachings of Atma Vidya or Self-Knowledge, purely based on the strength of the Upanishadic statements, their veracity based on Intuitive dialectics or ratiocination (called Anubhavaanga Tarka) and finally on the strength of the culmination or consummation of all those teachings in one's own Intuitive. experience here and now, have been distorted beyond recognition and redemption.
