This topic continues from the previous one which has the header of “What is Hridayakasha Garbha” … This is the third chapter of this series of topics on Hridayakasha Garbha … Hence aspirants must read the first three parts, prior proceeding into this one … Here we shall discuss Hridayakasha Garbha as a path to Sumeru (path to summit of self realization), Path of Sumeru (path of summit of self realization) and thus is none other than a Sumeru Marg that leads to the finality of Yoga (Sumeru of Yoga Tantra) which as such is a direct cognition of the fact that innermost essence of the aspirant (i.e. Atman of aspirant) is none other than the innermost essence of allness (i.e. Parabrahman) …
Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra is the Sumeru of Yoga, Path to Sumeru, Path of Sumeru and thus is the Sumeru Marg. Sumeru means summit
Sumeru means summit, ultimate position, finality of self-realization, highest point, peak of all accomplishments, last bead of a thread, supreme attainment (Param Siddhi) and higher of all evolutionary standings within the entirety of Maker’s Makings …
The word Sumeru also means Moksha, final emancipation … In addition to these, this word also means as Kaivalya, final exit from all that is as Maker’s Makings (i.e. the entirety of allness and her each part, including all God’s and Godly realms) … Thus, this word also means as Mukti and Kaivalya Moksha … And in simple words, this term only means a state of final Liberation …
Thus, path to Sumeru is what Brahmpath actually means … Brahmanpath was already discussed in a much earlier topic, but its path actually begins from this topic of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra …

What Sumeru (Number 109) …
Regarding the term ‘Sumeru’ …
- Sumeru refers to the assent or culmination or the highest point …
- It also denotes the completion of path … And entry into the pathless partless path …
- There is no third option … As neither the duality nor non duality remains for an aspirant who is stationed in Sumeru …
- Thus Sumeru also denotes that state of realization, which was discussed in an earlier topic of Atmavani (which means voice of soul, sound of soul, words of soul etc.) … Atma Vani thus denotes the self realized knowledge of Sumeru (see here) …
The term, arrival at Sumeru bead (or 109th bead) of a mala (aka. rosary), also denotes the following two options as far as states which would have to be entered into by any aspirant are concerned, but only after that aspirant has already attained to the Sumeru …
- First option is to re-begin from the first bead i.e. from the lowest point of evolutionary process … This is because the evolutionary process ends at Sumeru and thus after Sumeru, there is nothing like a path or non-path of evolution … Only the pathless partless state of Brahman (i.e. the attributeless infinite absolute being), remains in Sumeru …
- And second, is to begin to proceed into that pathless sutra (thread) of those non beaded states, which even though seem to be beyond the Sumeru, yet they have always been intrinsic to Sumeru itself …
- There is no third option when we consider the Sumeru bead of a mala (i.e. 109th bead of a Vedic rosary) …
Thus, basis above stated options, the possibilities can only be as follows …
- If one chooses the first part, then one has to begin again, even if that beginning is at a much later time span, within a much later age or even during the time spans of a much later eon … Thus, Siddha’s (fully accomplished ones) and Mukta (fully liberated ones) can also return back, but the time of their return back to physical or subtle realms is beyond calculation, due to the fact that such ones only return back for very special jobs like laying the foundation of a new age cycle (like the age cycle of Guru Yuga or Age of Sages) and where their return is also as per the call of time (Kaal), its eternal cycles (Kaalchakra) and as per the demands of the eternal lord of time (Mahakaal) and its own eternal divinity (Mahakaali) …
Continuing with above … But, since the beginning is only within the primordial nature (or macrocosmic voidness or simply emptiness as is stated within text) which also rests within the vast envelopes of Zero infinity, which itself is the infinite-zero (or Shunya Brahman), so if the aspirant chooses to not enter Sumeru (and thus the aspirant self-chooses to return back from Sumeru), then Shunya Brahman is from where that aspirant restarts …
Shunya Brahman is what was told in Vedic lore as the condition after Mahapralaya, in which everything rests in Sriman Naaraayana …
And after passing through Shunya Brahman, the aspirant enters into the primordial nature (i.e. or Shunya Tattva) … This is from where the re-beginning of that aspirant as a microcosm who would again be entering into one or another state of existence within the Maker’s Makings, actually happens …
Shunya Brahman is from where each beginning eventually happens and to where each begun state eventually arrives during the course of its own evolutionary process …
And as a matter of fact, this text has also originated from the same Zero Infinite, which itself is the infinite Zero or Shunya Brahman … And prior being written and distributed, this text has also transited through the primordial nature (or emptiness of allness or Shunya Tattva or simply Shunya and Shunyata) …
- And if the second amongst the above discussed options is chosen, then the the aspirant has to exit out of the primordial nature, then enter into Shunya Brahman (I.e. Zero Infinite, which by itself is the Infinite Zero) and begin walking that last path which leads into that, which is, the Pathless Partless attributeless absolute infinite being (Parabrahman) …
- There is no third option when we consider the Sumeru bead of a mala …
Thus, this part of the topic shall discuss, the first two options …
And this topic would only giving a hint towards the above stated third, so, even when the third shall be fully described in as much words, as are reasonably possible and within the limitations of this language, yet it would be left mostly undescribed …
But, Sumeru can also refer to attainment of Bodhichitta as we had discussed in an earlier topic …
The culmination at Sumeru … Commencing of last path …
This topic denotes the stage of commencement of the last path …
Above shown figure is the proof of an exit of a microcosm from the entirety of the four states of the macrocosm … Arrival at (or self realization of) this figure is only after the aspirant has already evolved beyond the four states of macrocosm, as were discussed in an earlier topic of As IT furthered ITself and the reason for this is that, this figure directly relates to the earlier topic of As IT progressed …
This figure denotes a stage which is beyond the four states of macrocosmos … In an earlier topic of As IT furthered ITself, we had discussed these four states of macrocosm as …
- Inert matter or inertial mass … This is like a lightless matter which is none other than a highly compressed energy field … This is because of the inter convertibility of matter and energy (i.e. inter convertibility of allness) … The root of matter is energy and the finality of matter is also energy only … Energy is the root and finality of matter and thus when energy gets compressed as a point in space, various types matter form (depending upon the rate and quantum of compression of energy) …
- Begun macrocosm or the macrocosmic matrix or Samsara … This originates from inert matter only … In this the mode of existence is cyclic, i.e. birth and a further rebirth …
- Macro-neutral greater whole or macro-neutral macrocosm … This is neutrality towards allness and her each part (or Sarva Samta) … This denotes neutral mode of existence, in which the existence is neither cyclic nor acyclic nor even actional or inertial … It’s just neutral to all these modes of existence …
- Unbegun macrocosm or the eternal macrocosm … This denotes acyclic existence … This rests within various aspects of intermediary state of emptiness …
- But, this figure also denotes a stage of exit from all of those intermediates states of emptiness …
And after going beyond all above, the aspirant enters into what was told as macrocosmic emptiness or Shunyata or macrocosmic voidness or simply the state of emptiness of allness … But this figure denotes the stage which is also beyond what is discussed in this paragraph …
This is because of the fact, that, this figure is of Zero Infinity, which itself is the infinite zero (or simply, Shunya Brahman) and which we had discussed in the earlier topic of As IT self expressed itself …
Path of Sumeru … Material and Immaterial absorptions …
This figure is also a proof of completion of material and immaterial absorptions … This figure is only self realized after all material and immaterial absorptions are completed by an aspirant and thus the aspirant travels light from all the earlier material and immaterial nonsensical aspects that he (or she) was attached to prior self realizing this figure …
Above statement means, that all of the currently manifest and currently non manifest macrocosmic states which are present within an aspirant (or microcosm) are already absorbed to their respective macrocosmic principal causes …
Above also means, that by the stage an aspirant self realizes what is told here, that aspirant is already gone and thus cannot return back to any part of macrocosmic creation, unless under free will and for benefit of all sentient beings, that aspirant let’s go of (or detaches from) this high attainment and thence re-enters back into the Maker’s Makings, but only for the benefit of other sentient beings … And where this return back is also as per the call of the incoming cycle of time (Kaalchakra), the eternal lord of time and its cycles (Bhagwan Mahakaal) and divinity of Lord of time and its cycles (Ma Mahakali) …
Significance of zero infinite, infinite Zero and macrocosmic voidness
Within the Zero that is infinite (i.e. zero whose finality is infinity) and which itself is the infinite that is zero (i.e. infinity whose root is zero), resides the emptiness of allness (i.e. macrocosmic voidness or simply, Shunya Tattva or Shunya) … The zero infinite, infinite zero is pervading and enveloping this emptiness (Shunya Tattva or Shunya) …
Within this state of macrocosmic voidness resides the entire macrocosmic creation … By the phrase, entire macrocosmic creation, I mean, right from the state that was prior anything was begun, till after it was begun, until it continues to exist as a microcosm in any state of existence and after its existence shall end (but this stage is only when the evolutionary standing of a microcosm within the macrocosmic hierarchies is ripe and right for a final exit) …
This state of above figure which describes zero infinity, which itself is the infinite zero, is a complete state in itself … Even though it seems empty, it has allness within itself and where this allness is in its very subtle impressional state …
Thus, within this state of Zero infinity, which itself is the infinite zero, full macrocosm is existent and where this macrocosm is within its subtle impressional state (i.e. as an impression, rather than as a subtle or gross state) …
Each of the four states of the macrocosm and macrocosmic voidness, can be arrived through this state of zero infinity (or infinite zero) because this state (of zero infinity or infinite zero) is also pervader (permeator) and enveloper of allness and where the word allness also includes macrocosmic voidness (or emptiness or Shunyata) … As all there was begun, was begun from within this state of Zero Infinite, which itself is the Infinite zero… And it also is to this state, that all that is begun, has eternally been enroute to …
And since this state of Shunya Brahman (i.e. zero infinity which itself is the infinite zero) is what Sriman Naaraayana is within his formless condition, so Vedic lore says, that Sriman Naaraayana is the root and finality of allness … This figure also describes the same condition which is referred to as “non lightness enveloping non lightness (which is wrongly told as darkness enveloping darkness)” by Nasadiya Sukta of Rig Veda …
This is the final state of existence and thus the Sumeru of existence it is within its essential nature … And thus, all that is begun within the Maker’s Makings, is also resting within and is also enroute to this figure and in addition to this, all that has begun as a macrocosm and microcosm, is has also been proceeding towards the same Sumeru which is being discussed here …
All roads that ever are or could ever be as paths to evolution, have eternally resided in this state of Zero infinity, which itself is the infinite Zero …
There is nothing within the entirety of the Makersmakings, which is not begun from the original self expression of the Absolute Being and which is also called as Shunya Brahman (i.e. zero infinity, which itself is the infinite zero) …
As also, prior entering into the Sumeru that is being discussed here, all that is begun, shall also have to self realize this state itself …
Two aspects of Subtle light within darkness …
Both Shunya Brahman and Shunya Tattva (or Shunya or emptiness) are dark in nature … Both these are self realized as non lightness …
But even when above is true, yet there is a major difference within these two self realizations …
Within this state of Shunya Brahman, which as such is the path to Sumeru (I.e. path to Satchidanand or Brahman), is a subtle impressional colorless light … This subtle colorless light is none other than the attributeless infinite being (or Parabrahman) …
Brahman pervades and envelopes this state of Shunya Brahman … Brahman can be self realized in this state (of Shunya Brahman) …
But on the contrary, within the macrocosmic voidness (or emptiness or Shunya), even when the subtle colorless light (Brahman) is definitely present, yet its self realization is not possible …
Now furthering on this discussion …
Four aspects of Samadhi of non lightness …
All below listed states of absorptions (i.e. states of Samadhi) relate to non lightness and all of them are a part of Sumeru Marg (i.e. the path to attainment of Sumeru or attributeless infinite being or Nirguna Brahman) … But these shall be discussed in further details in a later topic of this vast knowledge of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra …
So initially, even when below listed Samadhi’s (States of absorption) are seeming to be same, yet these are different … These differences are as follows …
- Jada Samadhi … The word Jada, means root … It also means without consciousness …
In this Jada Samadhi the aspirant loses touch with the ever changeful nature of time and thus in this Samadhi, the aspirant can rest for thousands and further thousands of years and yet not know that this vast time has already passed …
This Samadhi relates to Jada Prakriti or root inertial manifestation of macrocosmic nature (or Inert matter or inertial mass) …
From within this inertial manifestation of nature (as inert matter) was originated the entire macrocosmic creation and this inert matter resides within the unbegun state of macrocosm, which is also like a dark state only …
To understand unbegun macrocosm, just look at the empty lightless part of the night sky …
This stage of Samadhi denotes the stage of evolving beyond the begun part of macrocosmic creation and proceeding into the primary inertial part of macrocosmic creation … I.e. evolving beyond flows and dynamism of begun macrocosm (or cyclic existence) and entering into the absence of flows and dynamism of the inertial macrocosm … At a later stage, this would be further discussed …
- Shunya Samadhi … Shunya means zero, emptiness and voidness … This is the stage of absorption in voidness (or absorption within emptiness or Shunyata) … In this, the aspirant sees the emptiness in its utterly empty nature, which is even empty of itself …
Thus, in this state of Shunya Samadhi, the aspirant sees the zero as Zero …
In this Samadhi, the aspirant does not self realize the infinite nature of zero …
And since Brahman is Infinite and is as a colorless light (i.e. attributeless), so in Shunya Samadhi the aspirant can never self realize Brahman …
Shunya Samadhi of Root nature in lieu of the above discussed Jada Samadhi, which relates to the root inertial manifestation of nature …
Within the hierarchies of various types of Samadhi, Shunya Samadhi is a higher one when it is compared to Jada Samadhi … At a later stage, this would be further discussed …
- Asamprajnita Samadhi … Asamprajnita means non lightness … Non lightness does not mean darkness … Non lightness has knowledge, consciousness and activity principles in it whereas in darkness these are absent …
This is the stage where the aspirant’s consciousness crosses past the mind plexus (Manas chakra) which itself is present as the uppermost chakra amongst the three smaller chakras that are present within the Brahmarandra (i.e. secret crevice of the creator, Brahma) …
This is thus the stage of accomplishment which stands beyond the crown plexus (Brahmarandra Chakra or Sahasrara) …
This stage is of zero which is infinite and simultaneously, the infinite which itself is zero … Thus, this Samadhi can also be termed as that of Shunya Brahman …
And since this condition also partly relates to the infinite (i.e. attributeless infinite absolute being or simply, Brahman), so an aspirant who enters into Asamprajnita Samadhi which is being discussed here, can also self realize Brahman as an endless colorless light within that non lighted state of Shunya Brahman, to whom this Asamprajnita Samadhi relates …
So in this state of Samadhi, the colorless light (or Brahman) can also be self realized by some aspirant whose evolutionary process has arrived at its ripeness and rightness to undergo through this self realization …
Thus, this is the stage of Samadhi which even though relates to Non lightness, yet in this Samadhi the aspirant can self realize the Sumeru, i.e. Nirguna Brahman …
But to attain this state where self realization of colorless light of Brahman is possible, an aspirant would have to accomplish the below listed Samadhi (i.e. Nirbija Samadhi) prior entering into this Samadhi (i.e. Asamprajnita Samadhi) … At a later stage, this would be further discussed …
- Nirbija Samadhi … This is the most dangerous Samadhi for any aspirant, as only an iota of aspirants survive it to tell its tale …
But without passing through this stage of Samadhi, the colorless lighted state (of the attributeless infinite absolute being) can never be self realized within Asamprajnita Samadhi (as was discussed in the previous bullet point) …
Nirbija means seedless …
The word seedless means freed from all cause and effects, their impressions (including all past impressions of the cause and effects that were accumulated right from the aspirant has begun as a microcosm within the genius of Maker’s Makings) … And the aspirant also needs to be freed from that original impression which was utilized by the Maker, to self originate the Maker’s Makings …
Thus, after Nirbija Samadhi, the aspirant becomes free of all that is as gross, subtle, divine and impressional parts of Maker’s Makings …
And only after this freedom is the attributeless infinite supreme being (or Brahman) self realized as a colorless light within the non-lighted state of Asamprajnita Samadhi which was discussed in previous bullet point …
After Nirbija Samadhi, and then the state of Asamprajnita Samadhi, all of the macrocosmic states which are within the aspirant’s macrocosm, begin getting auto-absorbed into their respective macrocosmic principals …
And when this absorption completes, then only does any aspirant qualify to walk free of and independent from the entirety of Maker’s Makings and into the pathless partless path, which as such is the endless end of all existence, non existence and also their concepts …
So these were the four stages of Samadhi of non lightness i.e. absorption into the non lightness of Shunya Brahman, whose path commences from Jada Samadhi, travels through Shunya Samadhi, transits Asamprajnita Samadhi and then enters the route of Nirbija Samadhi … At a later stage, this would be further discussed …
Note: Thus, due to the oneness of Asamprajnita and Nirbija Samadhi in the path to Sumeru (i.e. path of a further self realization of Nirguna Nirakara Brahman), some texts say Nirbija Samadhi is higher and other Yogi’s have told that Asamprajnita Samadhi is higher … And since the colorless light (of Nirguna Brahman) can only be self realized via the path of absorption into the attributeless non-dual absolute being (i.e. state which has no alternates), whose Samadhi is of “Nirvikalpa (i.e. non dual or one who has no alternates)”, thus whenever an aspirant self realizes the colorless light like state of Brahman (which as such is Nirguna Brahman), then that aspirant is deemed to have also accomplished Nirvikalpa Samadhi also …
Note continues: Due to above reason, Nirvikalpa Samadhi is told as highest by some Yogi’s …
Note continues: But in my opinion, there is no highest, all are needed due to the intrinsically pluralistic yet essentially monist nature of Maker’s Makings … Thus, when we consider the pluralistic monism of Maker’s Makings, then each part has its role and each part is equally important … But at the same time, Nirguna Brahman (attributeless infinite absolute being) remains as the finality, i.e. the Sumeru …
Note continues: And Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra of our current discussion, is the base of path to Sumeru i.e. it is the state from where the path to Sumeru actually opens up for an aspirant …
When self realized and stationed within Sumeru (Nirguna Brahman)
When in the path to Sumeru (or Nirguna Brahman), only the essential final essence of wise words as stated below, remains …
There is nowhere to go, nothing to do, nobody to be
But getting firmly stationed in above stage is only possible after unseeding of the entire macrocosm from within the aspirant (i.e. successful accomplishment of Nirbija Samadhi) … It was due to this reason, that, in previous chapter we had told thus …
When all that is as Maker’s Makings, becomes absorbed into its own primordial, primary and principal causes, then, That Supreme Hermit, The eternally isolated one, That Parambrahma or Sumeru, only remains …
Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra as the base of commencement into Sumeru Marg
Unless an aspirant successfully completes the Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra as would be discussed in later sections of this topic, The path which leads and enters into Sumeru (attributeless infinite being) cannot even commence …
And if in any remote case, such as blessing of a God or Guru, even if the aspirant enters into the self realization of Sumeru, without successfully completing (or accomplishing) Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra as is discussed here, then also that aspirant would not be able to get stationed in that Sumeru … And this stage would even be after self realization of that Sumeru (which can even be due to blessing of a God or Guru) …
But remember, that, even when Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra is the root path from where the road to self realization of Sumeru opens up, yet Hridayakasha does not denote Sumeru …
Path to Sumeru opens up from Hridayakasha and that too, after successful completion of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra, but in reality Sumeru is beyond what is discussed here …
Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra and further self realization of Guha Kaivalya …
This is only as a marker for those very few aspirants who would be getting into and thence completing all that would be told in this topic …
The next stage which self-comes after successful completion of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra, is of Guha Kaivalya (The innermost cave of heart) which we have already discussed earlier on …
And this stage of Guha Kaivalya is also self realized after the self realization of what was discussed in an earlier topic of “The being in heart is Brahma” …
Stages after successful completion of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra …
And then are self realized the following stages, all of which have already been discussed earlier …
- Self realization of that part of Naad Brahm, which relates to the OM (or better if I say, the Sound of OM) …
- Then is the stage of self realization of “The being in eye is Brahma” …
- Then is the stage of self realization of “Shiva Taraka Naad” …
- Then is the stage of self realization of “Ashtama chakra … Eighth plexus” …
- Then is the stage of self realization of “The being in head is Brahma” …
- Then is the stage of self realization of states that are “Beyond eighth plexus” …
- Then is the stage of self realization of “Siddha Sharira and Loka” …
- And simultaneously with all above is the stage of transit through and self realization of what was discussed in an earlier set of topics on “Sadashiva Pradakshina” …
- And simultaneously with all above is the stage of transit through and self realization of what was discussed in an earlier set of topics on “Vedic Mahavakya … Vedic great statements” …
- In brief, above is how this path which begins from Hridayakasha Garbha moves further …
End part of Path to Sumeru … Final realization of Sumeru …
The end part of self realization after all above stages are successfully passed through, could be thus told, which please read carefully as I have left some aspects after implicitly telling them …
- The end is endless … Endless is the only end …
- The endless itself is the beginningless … Beginningless is the only point of real beginning …
- Entry into endless is via the path of being beginningless … For there is neither a cause nor effect needed to enter the endless (and as a matter of fact, this state is only of the beginningless) …
- Stationing in endless is liberation (Kaivalya Moksha) … For there neither a macrocosm, nor microcosm nor even any God nor even an impression of these in the final liberation (Kaivalya) …
- After fully stationed in endless is the stage of self realization of an undefined yet self realizable eternity … When this stage arrives, then for such an aspirant, there is neither any applicability of time (Kaal) nor its eternal cycles (Kaalchakra), neither any applicability of space nor its eternal cycles (Akashchakra), neither any applicability of any direction (or path of evolution or progress) nor its eternal cycles (Dishachakra) and there is neither any applicability of any state nor its eternal cycles (Dashachakra) …
- After stationing in endless Sumeru, is the innermost self realization of Vedic Mahavakya (Great statement) of I Am That (which in Vedas was told as Aham Brahmasmi), You are That (which in Vedic Sanskrit language was told as Tat Tvam Asi), This Is That (which in Vedic texts was told as Ayam Atma Brahma, and which means as Atman is Brahman), So Am I (which in Sanskrit language is told as Soham) and the realization of a Mahavakya of Shivoham (which means as I Am the supreme consciousness, or in other words, I Am Shiva) …
- This leads to the self realization of a non dual statement … I am all that ever is, ever was and could ever be … I am the eternal, all present and every present one …
- And this further leads to a self realization of the finality of Advaita Vedanta, where a stage of perfect non duality is entered into and where the aspirant says thus …
I am the created, I am the creator, I am the process of creation …
And were these three are naught but eternal in the essence and yet these three are ever changeful in their manifestations and expressions (within various texts) …
- I am the original expresser of allness, I myself am expressed as allness, I myself am the eternal process of self expression of allness and her each part …
And then are the realizations of which relate to dimensions and can be stated thus …
- I am the timeless time, beginningless, endless, eternal …
- I am the infinite space, unfathomable and infinite …
- I am the direction (i.e. the path) amongst all directions of the triple times (i.e. I am the only path of evolution which is present within and beyond all evolutionary paths) …
- I am the omnipresent state within whose envelope all states of existences (including divine words) are resting …
- I am here, there, beyond … I also am beyond all beyondness …
- I am the attributeless … I am the infinite … I am the absolute being, who rests beyond all concepts of absoluteness and yet is permeating and enveloping allness, including my own absolute nature (i.e. my own absoluteness) …
And finally … Is the end stage of self realization within Sumeru … This is beyond all concepts and texts …
- I am the self-realizable, yet within my absolute fullness, I remain as the eternally-indescribable one …
- I am the omnipresent, yet I remain unknown to allness, that I pervade and envelope … I am the fully detached permeator and enveloper of all that ever is and all that ever is cannot know me …
- I am omniscient, yet beyond knowledge, language … And their words …
- I am the omniparient, yet beyond relationships …
- I am Omnificent, yet beyond the concept of creation process, created and creator …
- I am omnidirectional, yet free of dualities of individualities and corpuses of directions (Ways of life) …
- Within my own intrinsically self-expressed fullness, I am omnifarious, yet I essentially remain as the attributeless infinite being (Nirgun Nirakaar Brahm) …
- I exist within and around allness and her each part, yet I remain detached from the entirety of allness and her each part … I am the “one and only” eternally detached omnific one …
- I am the omniform in my self expression, yet I neither am form nor formless in my essential nature … I remain as the fully detached, undefined infinite in which form and formless reside … The form does not know me, the formless does not know me …
- I am the omnicompetent, yet I have eternally stayed detached from suchness (such connotations) …
- I am inside each ever changeful moment, yet beyond them all, as I essentially am the eternal who is free of dual nature of change …
- I am empty, I am full, I am in-between these two … And I also am the essential fullness that resides within and beyond these …
- I am that who has ever been everywhere, within and beyond everything and everyone … This is also how I would ever-be … And I am also not fully knowable to anyone, except myself … To know me, you have to walk within the essence of the statement of … “Myself Within Myself” …
- I am the one about whom self realized, all realized sages have thus told …
Those who know IT and also believe they know IT, really do not know IT … Those who know IT and yet believe otherwise, are the real knower’s of IT …
This statement is of Sumeru which is self-known after successfully completing all that would be told in this set of highly restricted and esoteric topics on Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra …
Proceeding further with self realization of Sumeru …
And even when I Am As I Am, just as stated above … Yet …
- I am Knowledge that is beyond all knowledgeable concepts and texts …
- I am the conscious beyond all consciousness …
- I am activity within and beyond all activity …
- When I myself have not declared myself to myself, then how would anyone else know me …
- Thus, to know me, you need walk “Myself within Myself” …
This statement is of root path of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra … And this by itself is the base of this path to Sumeru, through which each aspirant has ever had to walk so as to reach Sumeru, whose path actually starts from this set of topics on Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra …
Hridayakasha Garbha … The place of supreme sacrifice and final sacrifice
While walking the paths of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra, the aspirant’s feelings (Bhava) must be thus …
I walk Myself within Myself, and offer Myself as sacrifice, Myself to Myself …
My-self is the self of all … So, my sacrifice ultimately is to the omnipresent self …
Hridayakasha as path of final conquest …
Various tribes, civilizations, countries, lands and faiths of mankind have till now related their glories to their abilities which relate to conquering others … By the word “others”, I mean other tribes, lands, civilizations, faiths, beliefs, countries, flora, fauna, men and women …
Yet all of them who believed such, have miserably failed … This fact is clearly visible when we look at those times that have passed after such civilizations and cultures manifested and evolved to their above discussed deviated states …
And due to these defects of their deeds and thoughts, all such ones either perished or as of now are standing on the verge of getting perished … The same shall be happening to all such deviated ones during the immediately approaching times as are of the change of present human age cycle (Manav Yuga) …
And due to the effects of change of human age cycle, we are already living in such times, when the accumulated deviations in their cause and effects would be leading to their end, which may be through a lesser or larger quantum of chaos …
The law of cause and effect is firm and it cannot be avoided irrespective of which God these civilizations may believe in …
All this perishing has been and all future perishing would also be due to the misbelieve (or better if I say misplaced belief) that rests in duality of I’s, My’s instead of Us and Ours …
As a matter of fact, within the final realization of the path of Sumeru that starts from Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra …
- My-self is Your-self … Your-self is My-self …
- Thus as far as the self stands, It is only our-self …
- And where, Our-self itself is the self of all that ever was, is and could ever be …
- And where the phrase of “all that ever is or could ever be”, also includes Gods of any of the times that have been, are and could ever be …
- Thus within this path, even when an aspirant is relating to his (or her) self only, yet the relation eventually is to the self of all, which also includes the self of gods of any of the scriptures that get manifested during any of the stages of progress of the triple times …
- Unless you conquer your own self, the conquest is never permanent … All other conquests are temporary and those who want to know this fact, can study the cycles of ups and downs of civilizations … These ups and downs were only because the adherents of these civilizations only believed in external conquests, which as such are temporary …
- But this path of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra is the base of that final and permanent conquest, which a yogi does Himself Within Himself … Thus is is a part of the path to Sumeru …
Note: Unless a culture, belief, faith and civilization relates to above, it cannot have that capability that can make it stand firm within the eternally changeful nature of cycles of time (Kaalchakra) …
And in absence of above, it’s eternal existence can never be guaranteed …
And in such a case, it would always have an end of time concept, instead of what must be an an eternal cyclic nature of time … i.e. the eternally turning and thus changeful nature of the wheel of time …
And in absence of above, that culture, belief, faith and civilization would never be based in completeness and fullness of finality of time, i.e. eternity …
And in such a case of absence of fullness, that culture, belief, faith and civilization would always become an instrument of cyclic chaos, and especially that chaos which always takes place at change of an age …
This world is already resting in such a time and very soon it would know what this little student (of the absolute) is talking about …
Proceeding further …
The real and eternal conqueror is that one, who only conquers Himself (or herself as the case may be) … This eternal conquest is thus the one which relates to one’s own self …
The real and eternal conquer only conquers his (or her) own self … This is the only permanent conquest, as once successfully completed, it never needs to be repeated …
During one’s entire time span of existence of allness that itself is within all the gross, subtle and divine realms, this inner conquest only need to be completed once … This is because, if once it is completed, then it is deemed to be completed until all the pending eternity of Makersmakings … And beyond …
The universe can come and go, religions, their texts and their Gods can come and go, but this inner conquest shall remain valid across the triplicity of all times …
Thus if only once a Yogi (aspirant) has completed this conquest, then there shall never be a need to repeat it during the entirety of remaining eternity of the Maker’s Makings … And also beyond …
This also is one of the supreme geniuses of Maker’s Makings …
Proceeding further …
This conquest is a very peaceful one in which one has to be detached from allness itself … When any aspirant is detached from allness, then that aspirant is also detached from himself (or herself) …
Only when the aspirant is detached from himself (or herself) does his (or her) self reveal itself …
This revelation is what leads to the next stage of walking ITself within ITself about which we have already discussed in an earlier topic … This is the stage when an aspirant walks the path which Rudra had also walked since eternity, thus this path can also be told as that of “Rudra Within Rudra” …
But this conquest is not through violence, it is through that stage of peace, were the aspirants bother’s not about anything, including himself (or herself) …
And this conquest is through one’s own sacrifice that is based upon what was told earlier on and is also written below …
I walk Myself within Myself, and offer Myself as sacrifice, Myself to Myself …
My-self is the self of all … So, my sacrifice ultimately is to the omnipresent self …
Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra and Eternal guide …
Eternal guide (or Sanatan Gurudeva) is Sri Vishnu … Sri Vishnu is eternally present within one of those many-many caves of heart …
When Sri Vishnu is self manifested inside the cave of heart of a Yogi, then is the stage of getting in touch with one’s own eternal guide …
And unless this eternal guide, who is present in the cave of heart of each true aspirant gets self-manifested and thence begins guiding that aspirant, success in Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra can never be guaranteed …
This knowledge of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra is just as was told by my eternal guide (Sri Vishnu who resides in the cave of heart) …
Hence this is not my knowledge … I only followed it, just as I was instructed by the eternal guide …
And I am also distributing it as per the instructions of my eternal guide …
Eternal guide in the cave of heart … Aantrik Avataran … The Avatar within …
I took 12 years to enter into the first cave of heart … This is the cave in which an entry takes place in an upside down position (i.e. the subtle vehicle which enters this cave in having its legs up and head down or in other words, its position is reverse of the physical vehicle’s position at that time) …
During these 12 years, I had repeated failures, but I never gave up …
And when I succeeded, then there really was no limit to expansion of knowledge, consciousness and activity principles (i.e. Gyan, Chetan and Kriya Siddhant) …
Proceeding further …
The secret cave of that eternal guide is protected by the following Bodhisattvas …
- White colored Avalokiteshwara … He sits within the vast emptiness that envelopes the entry point of cave of heart … He is my wisdom guide (Gyan Guru) …
- Behind him is standing a green mother … She is addressed as Green Tara in Buddhist lore …
- Alongside the green mother is a light yellowish colored mother, from whose middle of eyebrows, a white light emanates outwards … He is also a bodhisattva in Buddhist lore …
- If any aspirant wants to know more about other protectors of the cave of eternal guide who resides in cave of heart of every aspirant, then please read the Tibetan Buddhist lore, where family of Buddha Amitabha is discussed … I won’t say anything more than what is written here …
The stage when the eternal guide manifests within an aspirants cave of heart, is the one which Yogi’s have called as an Aantrik Avataran (i.e. the avatar manifests within an aspirant) …
Such an aspirant is like the Swaroopa of the eternal guide itself (i.e. such an aspirant is Sriman Naaraayana Swaroopa) … I won’t say anything more than this, so if any aspirant wishes to know more, then go to any Aamnaya Peetha and ask about it to the Shankaracharya of that Vedic monastery (Vyasa Peetha) …
With this as a base, I commence discussions on the highly hidden path of Hridayakasha Garbha Tantra, which itself is the commencement of path to Sumeru …
