నేను ఎవరు అన్నప్రశ్న నన్ను అతిగా ప్రశ్నిస్తుంటే,
సమాధానం కోసం మనసును మరచి శోధిస్తుంటే
నేను ఎం వెతుకుతున్నానో మరచిపోతుంటే,
నా ప్రయాణ దూరాన్ని కొలిచేదేలా?
ఈ దిశ, నిర్ధేశం లేని నా గమ్యాన్ని చేరుకుంటానన్న నమ్మకాన్ని నా మనసుకు కలుగ జేసేది ఎలా?
"నేను ఎవరు" అన్న ప్రశ్న నాలో ఇన్ని ప్రశ్నలు లేవనెత్తుతుంటే,
నా మనసుకు ఎటువంటి గందరగోలానికి లోనవుతుందో అని
ఈ అమాయకపు జీవీకి మరో ప్రశ్నయి కూర్చుంది.
అయినా, నా మనసుకు సర్ధి చెప్పేది ఒకటే..ఓపిక,
ఇంకాస్త ఓపిక గా ఉండు మని,మరిన్ని ప్రశ్నలతో సతమతమవోద్దని ,
అడుగు ముందుకేస్తు మరింత ఓపిక పెంచుకొమ్మని..
ఓ నా మనసా!
ఇన్నాళ్లు నువ్వే సర్వస్వం అని నమ్మి జీవించాను,
కానీ, మనసు కానిది, ఇంకేదో ఉందని తెలిసిన మరుక్షణం,
నా వ్యక్తిత్వమే మారి పోయి, నీ ఉనికికే సవాలు గా మారింది,
అయిన కంగారు పడకు, నా జీవనాన్ని గడపడానికి నువ్వు అవసరం,
అలా అని నువ్వే నా సర్వస్వం కాదు సుమా,
నువ్వు(మనసు) కానిది, "నేను ఎవరు" అనేది ఇంకేదో ఉంది అని విశ్వసించాల్సిన స్తితి నాది.
నిన్ను అంటే మనసును పక్కన పెట్టి ఆ ఆలోచన రహిత స్తితి లో నుండి చూస్తే,
నాకు నేనే కొత్తగా కనిపిస్తున్నాను!
ప్రయత్నిస్తా, నా ప్రయాణం పూర్తి అయ్యేవరకు ఆ "నేను ఎవరు" అన్న ప్రశ్న కు సమాధానం కోసమే జీవిస్తా!

“ATMA SHODHANA”!!! -- Self realization!!! -- it is a kind of thought process... AS PER MY KNOWLEDGE...
Where
"the brain" being "the processor";
"the conciousness" being "the resources";
"awareness" acting as "fuel and direction for search"
tries to find the "REAL SELF".
For finding the true results, one has to expand the conciousness; which also involves understanding the "unconcious knowledge in the mind". Merging the concious and unconcious mind.
SOUL + PHYSICAL ESSENCE + MIND = EXISTENCE.
MIND = HEART + KNOWLEDGE.
Physical essence is what is gifted by nature -- a predefined function/circuit designed to function in certain way… functioning controlled by inputs you take…
But to maintain this physique healthy – is why we do all the struggle of this career, educationnnnz..
Heart generally vibrant in nature, wants to fly like a butterfly, free from all bonds and restrictions,… just happy fulfilling all desires, possessions… Is the main source of all the good and bad thoughts in us… it is the ignorant part of mind...
Knowledge – always thirsty to know the facts, expanding the awareness and stays calm a side.
If the mind is dominated by the heart – one will tend to be back of all the materialist possessions…
If the mind is always back of knowing the facts – there the knowledge is dominating and in that situation – one cannot be back of the materialistic possessions…
And at a stage when knowledge thirst increases to a level – where day and night you are in search of facts (with this increasing concentration) – one will definitely know that fact and if one is searching with a similar thirst to know the soul --- mind filled with knowledge and awareness --- definitely will realize the “REAL SELF” “THE SOUL”.
This also doesnt mean leaving the heart, heart is ignorant part of mind. when your brain/mind is filled with knowledge -- both heart and knowledge will have one existence then...
All the preachings of great gurus is majorly to make the mind to be concentrating upon the facts – avoiding the vibrations of heart – to do so they often give suggestion first to maintain the physical essence – for which they also suggest to have a control on inputs you take…
But yes, everyone have their own way of living, and without much change in their living styles and habits one may attain self realization… but rarely… only few great people may achieve that and time taken will also be equivalently more and will be unpredictable case…
I wish myself and everyone in this world realize themselves and attain the eternality…
ALL THE BEST for your “ATMA SHODHANA”!!!
Before discussing it further about our thoughts, I would like to make it clear that, I am trying to offend you, go against your statements, or ideology.
I will, without any hesitation, counter question your statements, debate with your ideology.
I may also be against/for your statements. Therefore, all our discussions need to be considered as opportunity for mutual expansion of our thinking..
“ATMA SHODHANA”!!! -- Self realization!!! -- it is a kind of thought process... AS PER MY KNOWLEDGE...
“Atma Shodhana”, does not mean “Self realization”, it means “In search of self”.
Yes, you said, it is a kind of thought process…I agree, “self search” is a thought process, but not the self realization itself is a though process.
Thought is just an artifact, a tool, to enhance the life style, may of social living or one’s spiritual quest.
Where
"the brain" being "the processor";
"the conciousness" being "the resources";
"awareness" acting as "fuel and direction for search"
tries to find the "REAL SELF".
Analogy appears good.
I really doubt what “Consciousness” is, none of the books I have read could convince me, including your analogy. Therefore, I may not comment on “Consciousness” being “the resources”, but the rest I would agree. I continue my search to know what Consciousness is. Seldom, I find very little difference between awareness and consciousness.
For finding the true results, one has to expand the conciousness; which also involves understanding the "unconcious knowledge in the mind". Merging the concious and unconcious mind.
SOUL + PHYSICAL ESSENCE + MIND = EXISTENCE.
MIND = HEART + KNOWLEDGE.
For finding “true results” – assuming that you are referring to “self realization”, you said, one has to expand the consciousness. I like to refer this term as expanding your awareness, the more we become aware of our self, we get new questions about self.
I am not sure, if I have understood “Merging the conscious and unconscious mind”
Physical essence is what is gifted by nature -- a predefined function/circuit designed to function in certain way… functioning controlled by inputs you take…
But to maintain this physique healthy – is why we do all the struggle of this career, educationnnnz..
Fully agreed.
And at a stage when knowledge thirst increases to a level – where day and night you are in search of facts (with this increasing concentration) – one will definitely know that fact and if one is searching with a similar thirst to know the soul --- mind filled with knowledge and awareness --- definitely will realize the “REAL SELF” “THE SOUL”.
I have different ideology altogether with the above point. In order to realize self, we need intensity, I agree, but not the intensity of search of facts…it is the intensity of search of the “unknown”. Facts, knowledge should disappear in your search. Mind filled with knowledge and awareness; ha..mind filled with knowledge cannot get self realized, because, mind is the source of all the thoughts. Once the mind disappears, then you explore the arena of the “unknown”, as long as mind is present, knowledge is present, we try to make reasons, logics like what we are trying to do now.
Therefore, in order to realize the self, we should go beyond mind. Only then, unknown can be known. What we try to know using the mind is of materialistic, not spiritualistic.
I wish myself and everyone in this world realize themselves and attain the eternality…
Me too, I wish I know what is this “I” mean as I write too many “I”s in my conversation.

chala doubts vunnai kadu...
try to answer .., malli vastanu...
Thanke Rohini for reading this!
Let us resolve those doubts by meditating!
I don't think these doubts would be clarified with verbal answers.
These questions are of experience!
Let us try to be 'Aware', and meditate...!
Like to see more comments from you!
I also feel the same venkat...
Me instead of stating my illusions and discussing about them is not the right way for information exchange...
I need to be confirmly knowing atleast some basic terms to speak about it...
