Patanjali in his yogasutra describes that people are afflicted with five kinds of pain. These are - ignorance(avidya), attachment(raga), contempt(dvesha) and fear of death(abhinivesh)(II.3). However ignorance is the ground for the
[Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] [Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] germination of all other pain and so long as ignorance is not rooted out through self-knowledge pain remains in one form or the other.What is ignorance? Patanjali describes - to consider ephemeral(anitya) as eternal, falsity(ashuchi) as truth, sorrow(duhkha) as pleasure and
[Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] [Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] soulless(anatman) as soul is ignorance(II.5). Things which the senses perceive have no real existence. These are ephemeral and false. These things inflict sorrow to those who believe in their reality. Hell, heaven, angels, ghosts or imaginary God have no real existence. All those religious symbols, statues of Gods and Goddesses have no real existence. The real power lies in the soul of every being. It is the illumination of souls by which everything illuminates. Things which have life and soul are real and existent. Matter which is lifeless
[Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] [Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] is unreal and does not exist. Matter exists in the consciousness of living beings only.Egoism develops when all visible powers accumulate(II.6). There are two powers - one is the power of soul and other is the power of visible things. Wealth power, ruling power, muscle power or atomic power are visible and are unreal. These are the manifestations of soul power only. Atomic power manifests when we invest huge amount in it; wealth power manifests when we work hard and earn it; ruling power manifests when a ruling few create fear in masses.
[Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] [Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] All these powers are unreal and one who believes in their reality becomes a egoist and suffers from pain.Similarly, because of ignorance, people develop attachment to unreal things considering them as real and blissful; people develop contemt and look down upon real and blissful things. At present, people are more and more attracted towards material gain, while they develop indifference or even contemt towards family, friends and other living beings. Soul, life and consciousness
[Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] [Linkleri görebilmek için üye olmalısınız. Üye olmak için tıklayınız...] are only real and existent. We should be attracted towards them only.Fear of death is highly painful. Patanjali describes - even those wise men who believe only in natural laws are afflicted with the fear of death and are no better than fools(II.9). Learned and wise men see and believe in the natural cycles of birth and death, sunrise and sunset, summer and winter and the cycle of water in rivers. However one should bear in mind that natural cycles or laws govern only material world. These cycles are not at par with the cycle of birth and death. Material world cannot deviate from natural laws, but man can deviate from everything. The mind of man cannot be subjugated by external forces. Mind and soul are unborn and eternal. As we change dresses, so the soul enters into different bodies as it wishes. So the fear of death is unfounded. As we go to dreaming and sleeping states, so we go to after world from the present world. As we go to dreaming and sleeping states whenever we wish, so we may go to after world depending upon our willingness. Through the practice of yoga we should make our will power strong and keep it under control. Fear of death is avoidable and can be brought under control.All thoughts which generate due to ignorance and cause pain may be avoided through meditation(II.11). In meditation a practitioner should try to rest in true self. True self is the Home and reality of all. When one slips down from this reality. one succumbs to pail and misery. True self is blissful which only gives eternal pleasure.
