    Touch Meditation

    Touch Meditation

    Feeling the spiritual world.

    You are where your thoughts are. If your thoughts are in Nitya Ekachakra Lila, then you are there. They are reciprocating with you there. Jahan man Hai vahan hi Jivan hai. Jahan man Hai vahan hi Jivan Dhan hai! If you are at the Lotus feet of Sri Vasudha and serving her Lotus feet. Then you are there. The mind also travels at the speed much more than the speed of light or the speed of sound. The mind can actually travel very very very very fast. And the mind can immediately take you into the Nitya Lila, even though it is very very very far from us. Still It is near because of the mind.

    "sa vai manaḥ Nitai-padāravindayor
    Adyaiva me visatu manasa-raja- hamsah"

    'Visatu' means you reside there. If your mind resides there then you recide there in your spiritual form. So the most important thing in Ekachakra Dhyan for Harinam Ruchi is to spiritualize our mind. By thinking of Nitya Ekachakra dham. By thinking of the each particle of grass of Nitya Ekachakra dham. Thinking of every tree in Nitya Ekachakra Dham.

    'Adyaiva me visatu manasa-raja- hamsah'.

    Mind is like a swan 'raja- hamsah' not an ordinary swan. The mind which is contemplating, reflecting, recollecting, visualizing and meditating on the Nitya Lila of Ekachakra dham is our biggest friend. To behold the interactions of the eternal denizens of Ekachakra, with among themselves and with us. That is the perfection of our remembrance, of our dhyan, of our mind. The more we think of the spiritual world, the more we become resident of the spiritual world, right? No doubt about it.

    The whole machinery of Maya devi is just for one purpose and only one purpose, to not allow us to think of the spiritual world. And even if I am thinking! to reduce the time from thinking. Don't think so much! You have to still live in this material world. This material world is a dream. It is unreal. It is phantasmagoria. It is so temporary. When we give up this Mortal coil, nothing which we think of now as reality will exist. Everything will be gone. The only reality is what we have meditated on. What we have remembered.

    "svalpam apyasya dharmasya trāyate mahato bhayāt".

    Even one embrace of the kalpavriksha tree in Ekachakra, just one time in our meditation, in our remembrance, can save us from unlimited dangers after our death. Just one embrace, just one thought! One meditation! That could be the thought of our Salvation. That thought cannot let Yamadutas near us. Because that thought is a spiritual thought. Is the thought of our eternal spiritual form embracing the divine kalpavriksha.

    The more you tightly you embrace the kalpavriksha of Ekachakra, the more by the touch the more our spiritual form is revealed. That attributes the beauty, the sounds. The more we touch the divine objects in the Nitya Lila, the more our spiritual form develops. Even if you can't touch anything just touch the grass, and then you will see your spiritual hand! If you can't touch then just touch the kalpavriksha and you will see your spiritual arms.

    Yes, this is the secret of all secrets. Let the mind reside there and become totally offence free by residing in Ekachakra Dham. "Man-manā bhava mad-bhaktah" Krishna says in the Gita, become my devotee first through your mind. Wow, isn't that so simple? With your mind. Become my devotee in your mind. Then all your sences will follow. With your mind caress my hand, caress my body. Feel my body. Nitai says feel my body in Ekachakra. Feel my bed. Feel my Associates. Feel the grass.

    Feel, feel, feel, feel in Ekachakra, feel everything. The more you feel, the more closer you come to immortality. 'Amṛtatvāya kalpate' and once you are attain your eternal Immortal form there. Then over over everything is solved. This material world will just become some very very far-fetched dream. You will not even remember anything. That should be our topmost priority in this precious Human birth. Because we have higher intelligence to devel

    Meditation on Illusion

    Meditation on Illusion

    Isolating the Truth in Creation.

    asthambha bhuvan paryantam sarva maya mayan jagat, satyam satyam punah satyam Ekachakra dhyan anandam, satyam satyam punah satyam Ekachakra dhyan anandam.

    ‘asthambha’, ‘asthambha’ means from the lowest piece of grass. ‘bhuvan paryantam’: upto the brahma loka, the topmost planet in this universe, this whole cosmos is filled with maya or illusion. Why? Because it is temporary. It will all be destroyed after three hundred and eleven trillion years. This is hundred years of bramha and just one breath of Maha-Vishnu. You see the lowest is a piece of grass, in the material world, nobody wants to even look at the grass and that grass is the highest in the spiritual world.

    The touch of that grass in Ekachakra dhyan can give one’s spiritual form. So, this whole world is illusion. Don't try to find the truth here. “asthambha bhuvan paryantam sarva maya mayan jagat”. ‘sarva maya mayan jagat’: everywhere is illusion, kalyuga is more illusion. Even the Heavenly planets are illusion because they create an illusion of being happy but when where we are, it is not permanent. When we fall down from heavenly planets, we fall down miserably.

    It is the most painful because for one who has enjoyed, suffering is worse than death, and the suffering in the mrityu loka, in the middle planetary systems like the earth, oh! you all know that “padam padam yad vipadam na tesam”, every day if you can live then it is a miracle and ultimately the lower planets, oh! It’s full of suffering atal, vital, sutal, tala, talatal, rasatal, malatal, everything. So, as you go down and down, the suffering increases exponentially, infinitely.

    In fact, the time is so slow there. So, one has to, like ahhh! Even Hundered thousand years of suffering there will be just one minute on this earth. So, you can suffer unlimitedly there. So, the whole world is like maya you know, ‘sarva maya mayam jagat’. So, what is the truth? Remembering Ekachakra that is the only truth. That is our anchor, that is our rocket, our boat, our ship to cross this ocean of suffering ‘dukhalayam asashvatam’.

    Why it is maya? Why it is misery? Because it is asashvatam, temporary, and how do we cross that? 'satyam satyam punah satyam, Ekachakra dhyan anandam, Ekachakra dhyan anandam. The Ananda, the bliss of Ekachakra dhyan is infinite, still it is increasing at every moment. Just meditate, dhyan means meditation on Ekachakra in the topmost spiritual planet of Goloka Vrindavan. Ekachakra is inviting you, Ekachakra is waiting for you with open arms. Just become wrapped in his embrace. “satyam satyam punah satyam, Ekachakra dhyan anandam”.

    Water Meditation on My Spiritual Form

    Water Meditation on My Spiritual Form

    The Dawn of My Eternal Spiritual Body in the Water.

    more siddha-deha diya, Nitai-pashe rakhe giya, ei dehera kare sarva-nasha

    ishat vikashi punah, dekhaya nija rupa-guna, citta hari laya Nitai-pasha

    Sri maudeshwari Yamuna in Nitya Ekachakra dham is my life and soul. She awards me my siddha deha, my spiritual form when I go into deep meditation and take bath, enter into maudeshwari Yamuna. As I am entering the divine waters of maudeshwari Yamuna, my feet are turning spiritual. I can see as I am entering, gradually the water is rising from my feet to my knees, thighs, waist, my stomach, chest, my neck and eventually my face. This is really funny, I feel like I am transforming, there is a metamorphosis going on, Completely different person. I am feeling that as my neck is going inside the water, I feel my breath, my divine breath in the spiritual form and I feel my voice is coming, my voice in my spiritual form is coming.

    I have a female dasi form in the Ekachakra’s Nityalila. Ankle bells have come on my feet, I feel, I want to immerse my head inside the water fully so that no part of my mundane body remains and only my spiritual form emerges. I want, I am moving my both hands like swimming inside. When I am inside the water and I am staying inside the water in that divine dip, I am not coming out. I am like playing with both my hands with maudeshwari Yamuna’s divine water, and I feel my body has become completely, completely spiritual, Completely, completely. Now I have goose bumps, my hairs standing on end all over the body even in this material world. Imagine the spiritual form. This is the power of maudeshwari Yamuna.

    Any object in the Nityalila, when we touch that object, they are like Paras-mani or Chinta-mani. When we touch that object, we become gold. Gold means not a statue but our spiritual form. We become transcendental, spiritual just like them. That is why Ekachakra dhyan is the most munificent, most benevolent, most magnanimous, most all forgiving, most offense less, most liberal practice for Harinam ruci because instantly when we meditate on Ekachakra’s associates whether they are in Shanta-rasa, Dasya-rasa, Sakhya-rasa, Vatsalya-rasa or Madhurya-rasa. They have brought us our spiritual form. Go through the door which is open please. Go to Golok Vrindavan, we want to attain Vrindavan, Vraja of Radha Krishna.

    We want to attain Navadvipa of Gaura-sundar but we go through the door which is always open that is Ekachakra. Ekachakra is the door into. Shrila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakura Prabhupada said that in ‘Chaitanya Bhagavat’ commentary. He said, “Unless you enter into the Maha-audarya, through the Maha-audarya partition prakoshta of Goloka Vrindavan, you cannot enter the Madhurya prakoshta of Vraja lila of Radha-Krishna that is why it is said, “heno Nityananda bine bhai, radha-krishna paite nai”. This one line I keep on explaining whole my life but still I find new meanings for this. So, I am just offending the water in the Yamuna in my spiritual form. Now I have already got my spiritual form, I have already got it and I feel immersed in it.

    Oh! I feel like crying, I won’t cry, I won’t cry, I won’t cry. This microphone won’t take my crying unfortunately. So, I can feel that my voice is coming from my spiritual form. I don’t know what’s happening. Yeah! I just want to remain inside the water. I remember even in this life when I was in Radha kund, I used to take bath on Bagula Ashtami time and off course Radha kunda and Vraja there are consideration of offenses but still because I was Nitai Bhakta, I could feel, I would tell our devotees let close our nose and dive into the water and let’s see who stays longer because I felt the tinkling, the kindling of my spiritual form inside the water but in Ekachakra now I can reside there manasikally, mentally forever, forever. I am still inside the water; all my head is

    Meditation on The Bed

    Meditation on The Bed

    The very bed which upholds the entire creation is my life and soul.

    yasyaika-niśvasita-
    kālam athāvalambya
    jīvanti loma-vila-jā
    jagad-aṇḍa-nāthāḥ
    viṣṇur mahān sa iha
    yasya kalā-viśeṣo
    nitāichandram ādi-puruṣaṁ
    tam ahaṁ bhajāmi

    yasya — whose; eka — one; niśvasita — of breath; kālam — time; atha — thus; avalambya — taking shelter of; jīvanti — live; loma - vila-jāḥ — grown from the hair holes; jagat-aṇḍa-nāthāḥ — the masters of the universes (the Brahmās); viṣṇuḥ mahān — Lord Mahā-Viṣṇu; saḥ — that; iha — here; yasya — whose; kalā - viśeṣaḥ — particular plenary portion or expansion; nitāichandram — the Supreme Lord Nitai; ādi - puruṣam — the original person; tam — Him; aham — I; bhajāmi — worship.

    I offer my prostrated obesciances to that divine bed on which Sri Nitaichand is resting. That bed is studded with gems, diamonds, rubies emeralds and divine touchstones which fulfill all our desires. When I touch the bed the limbs of the bed, the golden legs of the bed which are filled with intricate designs, when I touch them my whole spiritual form is manifested. You cannot touch something transcendental with material body.

    I find myself hugging the legs of the bed sometimes, feeling the bottom of the bed which is also studded with gems, diamonds, rubies and gold. That is a same bed on which avatari Nitaichand is lying. He also lies as His plenary expansion of Maha Vishnu.

    yasyaika-niśvasita-
    kālam athāvalambya

    Just the time duration of His one inhalation and exhalation is our 8.64 Billion years. Can you imagine? And He is so maha maha, so gigantic undescribable in words.

    yasyaika-niśvasita-kālam athāvalambya

    The whole time is dependent on His breathing and as He exhales more than 9 trillion universes of different shapes, different sizes, different complexities they emanate from His pores and they pervade this whole material creation which is only 1/4th of the whole creation.

    Ek pad vibhuti. Rom Rom me base hai brahmand. In His every pore universe is coming out and each universe is filled with unlimited variety, can you imagine even this planet has can you imagine? Even this universe is filled with so much variety and our universe is the smallest of all.

    viṣṇur mahān sa iha yasya kalā-viśeṣo

    And that Maha Vishnu, the only one that Maha Vishnu in the whole creation who sits at the border, who lies down at the border of spiritual creation, that only one Maha Vishnu is actually a plenary expansion of expansion of Nitaichand. Can you imagine this?

    nitāichandram ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi

    I worship His bed the same bed, can you imagine how beautiful the original bed must be in nitya Ekachakra dham where Maha Vishnu He is so beautiful, so beautiful, gigantic.. imagine that. That bed is my only hope, that bed is my friend, my bandhu. Even the head of the bed is huge golden dome with intricate designs with diamonds and gold. And i hug that, I feel that with both my hands shine it, clean it.

    At the foot of bed is also beautiful intricate designs. May my mind & my heart and my soul remain in rapt meditation on the divine bed it is that bed which carries Nitaichand who carries the whole creation. So fortunate ...Nitaichand lies on the bed. Oh the beauty of Him lying there is incomparable and indescribable. Nitaichand ki Jai! Nitai Shayan sthan ki Jai!
