This topic is to discuss the Aghora and its relationship to macro-elemental ether or Akasha Mahabhoot or Plane of ether and also briefly relate to a Vedic statement of Akash Brahma or Akasha Brahma …
UU-01 … On the printed page of above figure was painted the painted the first figure of this topic on Ahum Naad …
This figure is when the mind which as such is the main component of the astral body (which also means as a subtle vehicle or Sookshma Sharira) observes it whilst resting within ether (i.e. Akasha Mahabhoot) …
The word Akash Mahabhoot means the “macro-elemental ether” … Akasha Mahabhoot was the 1st macro-element which was self-originated within the Maker’s Makings … And it was only after the “macro-elemental ether (or Akash Mahabhoot)” was originated, that the other four macro-elements of air, light or fire or luminosity, water and earth were originated …
The other four macro-elements also rest within the envelope of “macro-elemental ether (i.e. Akasha Mahabhoot) only because the expanses of this macro-elemental ether are limitless … And at the same time, because macro-elemental ether is also the subtler of all other macro-elements, so ether also pervades the other four macro-elements …
Astral vehicle whose main component is the mind, also travels within ether only … Thus all astral travel are within ether itself …
Mind sheath or Manomaye Kosha is of a blue color, just as the color of Aghora also is …
Proceeding further …
As also is a mutually contradictory yet supportive fact which could be stated as follows … It is within Aghora face of Shiva that the macrocosmic mind resides … And at the same time, it is within the macrocosmic mind, that Aghora face of Shiva rests … Thus both these aspects of philosophy are inseparable from each other and are like conjoined twins who may have two different sets of bodies, but yet they have the same base i.e. the macrocosmic mind …
Without the mind, there is neither any self-realization possible nor can anybody gain any knowledge nor can any type of Yoga Tantra ever be practiced by anyone … This is because of what we had discussed earlier that the mind by itself is the best medium to know allness and which itself is by virtue of the mind being eternally based within its union to the individuality of the three times and yet being based within the same “one moment of eternity” which is all that is when the astral vehicle (which in Sanskrit language is termed as Sookshma Sharira) whose main component itself is the mind sheath (i.e. Manomaye Kosha) reaches the state as is shown in above figure and also the state which was shown in the first figure of this topic …
Aghora and plane of ether or Akasha Mahabhoot
UU-02 … Now we shall discuss the above shown figure …
Above figure denotes the first stage of self-realization of Aghora and this figure is depicting the state when the blue colored astral vehicle is in a position that is still pretty far from the first figure of this topic (i.e. figure of Ahum Naad which was shown at the beginning of this topic) …
Above realization is when the astral body is resting within the Macro-elemental Ether or plane of ether (Akash Mahabhoot of Vedic lore) that is enveloping Ahum Naad and this is even when macro-elemental ether (Akash Mahabhoot) is also emanated out of Sound of Ahum itself …
Following is a fact about ether …
- Within the manifest macrocosm (i.e. Apra Prakriti), the ether is found to be of a purple color …
This ether of a purple color manifests from within the unions of red colored macrocosmic attribute of action (i.e. Rajoguna) and blue colored macrocosmic attribute of Inertia (i.e. Tamoguna) and whilst both these are pervaded by the much subtler white colored macrocosmic attribute of neutrality of wisdom (i.e. Sattva Guna) …
It is from the union as is stated in above paragraph that the brightly lit up yet very-subtle purple colored macro-elemental ether (Akash Mahabhoot) self-manifests within the manifested state of nature (I.e. Apra Prakriti) …
- As also a fact that ether is an intrinsic-part of the centrally located upward-facing colorless crystal like Ishaan face of Sadashiva and it eventually is from the centrally located Ishana face of Sadashiva that ether is projected unto all parts of the macrocosmic creation (and that too through the four cardinal faces of Sadashiva) … Thus ether is one which is present everywhere and within everyone (i.e. every aspirant) and everything (all parts of macrocosmic speciology) and it is due to this reason, irrespective of whether these speciological parts are animate, inanimate, supra-inanimate or supra-animate, that are all pervaded and enveloped by ether itself …
But as far as above figure is concerned, it denotes the state where the astral vehicle is standing within the location which is in-between the central Ishana face and the south facing, blue colored Aghora face of Sadashiva … Thus the location of the astral vehicle in this figure is at the north of the blue colored Aghora face of Shiva which is being discussed in this topic …
- Within the “beyond or non-manifest nature (i.e. Para Prakriti)”, ether is of a very subtle white color and thus at this stage ether is based upon neutrality (Samta) …
- Within “neither manifest nor non-manifest Maker’s nature (i.e. Avyakta Prakriti), ether is of a very light pink color … Thus in such a state, ether itself is the Avyakta Prana (i.e. non-manifest, non-present Maker’s nature) and this state of ether was also addressed as the Maya Shakti of Pitamah Brahma Ji … I have written that Maya Shakti is of Pitamah Brahma Ji here because she is located in immediate vicinity (actually adjacent) to the pristine world of the creator (i.e. Brahmaloka) … And the same state which is called as Avyakta is also the one which is addressed as “Tusita Loka (i.e. satisfaction world)” in Buddhism …
Continuing with above bullet point … And it is within the vast expanses of very-light-pink colored Avyakta, that the “Kama Loka (i.e. world of continuous sex)” is present … When Kama Loka is self-realized, then the aspirant also knows the source of origin of “knowledge of Kama Sutra (as was given by sage Vatsyayana)” because the inhabitants of this world of sex (i.e. Kama Loka) are fully and continuously sexually-engaged with each other and that too in all those positions of copulation which are stated within the “knowledge of Kamasutra’s (as was given by sage Vatsyayana)” … Thus is realized that sage Vatsyayana had visited this Kamaloka prior he had given the knowledge of Kama Sutra’s and this also proves that he was a highly evolved sage …
Continuing with above bullet point … This Kama Loka is like a pit in Avyakta where the inhabitants are continuously engaged in sex and this deep pit like world of Kama Loka is in between the “diamond white colored world of creator (i.e. Sadyojata face of Sadashiva or Brahmaloka)” and the “brightest of orange colored world of sound of ALA (I.e. ALA Naad or Rudra of Vedas and who also is the Primordial wrathful Buddha ALA of Buddhist knowledge systems and also is the Allah Tala of Islam)” … It is to this Kama Loka that the philosophy of “72 virgins of Islam” eventually relates … Rest all shall be discussed in a later topic of Avyakta Prakriti (who in other words is also called as Avyakta Prana) and who by herself is the divinity called as Maya Shakti (who as such is the Shakti or divinity of the “grandfather and creator of allness or Pitamah Brahma Ji)” …
- Within the macrocosmic voidness (i.e. Shunya Tattva or voidness of allness or Sarva Shunya) the same ether is found to be in a non-lighted state (of emptiness) … Due to this reason if ether is observed from within macrocosmic voidness, then it shall be found to be of a subtle dark color (I mean non-lighted state) …
- Within the attributeless-infinite being (Nirgun Nirakaar Brahm or Brahman), the ether is within its original state of colorlessness and is comparable to a colorless crystal … And this is also the condition of ether when viewed from within the centrally-located upward-facing Ishana …
All above are stated aspects are a fact about ether (Akasha Mahabhoot) … And it is due to this reason, that depending upon the location of the subtler-vehicle, is the observation of characteristics (colors etc.) of ether … And because different sages saw the same ether from different locations, so this is also the reason for all the differences regarding ether in many texts … Thus some texts say ether is of such and such color and other texts say ether is dark and yet other say that ether is colorless and all these differences are only because of the fact that the sages who had self-realized ether had done so whilst their own subtler-vehicles were resting in different locations within the subtler components of the same Maker’s Makings …
- Though this is a discussion of a much later topic, but a brief of it is worth a mention here … And at the same time when ether is viewed from within a location that is in-between the centrally-located upward-facing colorless-crustal-like Ishana face and golden-colored west-facing Tatpurusha face of Sadashiva, then the same ether is found to be of a very bright purple hue and also had golden lights within it …
- Thus basis all above discussions, depending upon location of the subtler vehicle of an aspirant, is the observation of characteristics of ether and yet at the same time, ether in its originality was none other than colorless and infinite …
Above figure shows that state and when the astral vehicle is standing within that envelope of ether and when in the middle position of the centrally-located colorless crystal like Ishaan face and the south facing, blue colored Aghora face … And in above figure, the dark blue orb in the left hand side is of Aghora (even though this is shown as a small orb, yet it is of very vast dimensions and thus is a macrocosmic state only)
And in above painting, the plane of mind which also emanates as a subtle state from within the Aghora face of Sadashiva (Ahum Naad), is just adjacent to the state where astral vehicle (or Sookshma Sharira) is shown to be standing (This plane of mind shall be discussed in a later topic which shall be upon the pristine seat of my Param Gurudeva Bhagwan Shiva) …
Akasha Brahma and Aghora
Above figure also leads to a self realization of Vedic statement of “Akasha Brahma”, which means “Space or Ether or endless Akasha” is the Absolute being and this statement also means, “Space or Ether or endless Akasha” is a self expression, self manifestation and self presence of the supreme being …
Akasha Mahabhoot or ether as a path of Astral travel or Sookshma Sharira Gaman
UU-03 … This is the last part of discussion on the current topic …
This is one of the restricted topics of this text, so aspirants who want to get into this part of the discussion shall have to be fully compliant to the requirements that were listed in an earlier topic which has the header of “Restricted Topics” …
Those who do not meet the minimum compliance as was stated in the earlier topic of “Restricted Topics”, must never attempt the below stated exercise due to reasons which were stated in the earlier topic (i.e. “Restricted Topics”) as this exercise can be very dangerous for such ones …
Basis above, we begin our discussions of astral travel …
This is where we shall be discussing the origin of astral travel whilst utilizing the base of ether that itself is present within us (because ether pervades everything, including us) and which itself is the same ether in whose limitless-envelopes we have ever been resting in and that too, ever since the timeless eternity when we were originally begun as a microcosm within the supreme genius of the Maker’s Makings …
- Calm your mind with deep breathing for a while … Continue this for a few days (or weeks) until you can reach a calm state of mind …
- When above is being done, the best way to calm the mind and stabilize it, is to mentally (i.e. subtly) recite AOM and that too, whilst making this sound as long as is possible i.e. AaaaaaaaaaOoooooooooMmmmmmmmmm … And where this mental (or subtle) recitation is such that it is close as possible to 1/3rd for each of these three syllables (of AUM) …
- Ultimately a stage would reach where only the “sound of M (Makar)” remains … This is the stage when mind is fixed only upon the endless “Sound of M (i.e. sound of Mmmmmmmmmm)” …
- When above stage arrives, then it also denotes entry of your own consciousness into that which was told as “Brahmanaad within Vedas” and which itself is the original sound of Maker’s Makings (i.e. Brahmand) … Thus at this stage, your own consciousness is only resting within the original state of Maker’s Makings i.e. Shunya Brahman (which has already been discussed in an earlier topic of “As IT self expressed itself”) …
- In above, do not concentrate on your heart as it may arrest your heart if you are not an adept of inward meditation techniques because one-pointedness on heart also has its ill effects if the aspirant is not an adept of inward meditations …
- And most importantly … Whilst you are doing what was stated above, if you see your consciousness entering emptiness (i.e. silence of non-lightness) then immediately stop the exercise as any further continuity would lead to a heart arrest and/or lung arrest and/or brain seizure or anything else like pains etc. … The first sign of entering this state is when your eyes internally turn upwards i.e. towards your own skull top in lieu of their earlier normal position which shall only be about 10-30 degrees upwards (i.e. towards your forehead) … This arrest is always caused by macrocosmic entities who look like dark colored leeches and which have teeth like a dog and they direct attack the thumb shaped pit of heart where your own causal vehicle is present (i.e. they attack your own fourfold inner subtle tool or Antahkarana Chatushtaya and this can lead to is a very dangerous situation for you) … Thus when above happens, then the exercise must be immediately stopped and resumed only after a few days after you have mentally programmed not to enter the same state again …
- And to build up an initial concentration if you can fix your inner-vision (I mean mind) on your third eye plexus or any other part of your body that is higher than the heart, then do not use too much of will power, as it would lead to throbbing pains in that area … Never fix concentration on areas lower than the heart …
- Ultimately your vision shall have to reach a stage where it is fixed and where your concentration is fixed inside your own physical vehicle in its entirety … This part takes a pretty long time for most aspirants …
- When above reaches its completion stage, slowly but steadily start visualizing that your body to be empty of organs and parts and visualize that only the bright purple colored ether is existing within the external cover of your fleshy body …
- When above stage is reached, the astral vehicle shall begin separating out of your own physical vehicle … And thence the astral travels start …
That’s all …
