Yoga, Union with the Ultimate

By: newagephilosopher

The Unified Field is the only Reality. The Unified Field of Consciousness is
Absolute Being, Absolut Knowledge, Absolute Bliss ( Sat, Chit, Ananda), the
eternal triad which is the Universe and which we are & the great secret
which we must discover in our long evolutionary journey.

Now enhance your Being, Knowledge,Bliss, which are from time immemorial
considered as Wisdom's frame of reference.

Through adding to your Sat (existence), developing your Chit (subsistence)
and enjoying Ananda you will witness a spiritual evolution or realization in
your mind. With practising yoga, one sees the Absolute Self everywhere
through his eyes of wisdom. He will become absolutely impersonal. He will
not have a bit of selfishness in him. His Id will be completely annihilated.
And in times he will attain the Eternal Bliss of the Self

The word "Yoga" itself is derived from a Sanskrit word "Yuj", which means to
unite. Union with Cosmic Intelligence is the Yogic objective.

What we sow, we reap and this Universal Law is known as the Law of Karma,
the Grand Law of Causation. We have to understand that the miseries of life
and the Negativity which we experience are all the inevitable clearing
process of exhausting our Karma. We have to understand that despite our
sufferings, mistakes and ignorance, the Divine Will is leading us, through
every circumstance, towards the final Realization. This faith will give us
equanimity.

Even in rags, I am a god
Fallen, I am divine
High I triumph when down trod
Live will I when slain !

It is natural that our faith may be assailed by some misfortunes which
happen to us. We have to understand that Initiation is a process of
intensive culture and accelerated evolution and the bad experiences which
happen to us are merely wages.

What can all these trials and tribulations do to the Godhead within us, the
Almighty Self, He who transcends Space, Time & Causality? Him the jail
cannot confine nor the gallows end !

Let us follow the Four fold path of Yoga. They are.

Jnana Yoga Union via Wisdom The method by which the intellect is used to
negate the bondage of material world.

Raja Yoga Union via Psychic Control The psychological approach focusing on
concentration and meditation.

Karma Yoga Union via Action This is the path of eliminating the ego and
attachments through selfless service.

Bhakthi Yoga Union via Love A way of union through conversion of the
emotions to devotion.
Human mind has immaculate powers. And it differs from person to person.
People can awake the hidden psychic and occult powers in them by
understanding and realizing the power of their mind. The four-fold path of
Yoga offers some unique ways to emancipate oneself from the material world
using the divine intelligence.

The Intellectual Man can go for Jnana Yoga or Union via Wisdom

The Active Man can pursue Karma Yoga or the Union via Action

The Adventurous man can followe Raja Yoga or Union via Psychic Control

The Emotional Man can look for Bhakthi Yoga or the Union of Emotions

Practising any one of the four powerful and vigorous Yoga paths will take
you beyond the five concentric sheaths to the Absolute Self, which is the
cosmic power in individual bodies

While Raja and Jnana Yogas are more or less for the initiated, Bhakti &
Karma Yogas are for the ordinary man. You can understand the basic
principles of Yoga by reading some books on the science. An good beginner's
book dealing with Self Development is Dr Ashok Selvaraja's 7 Golden Secrets
to know your Higher Self. The characteristics of both the lower and the
higher selves are highlighted and Cosmic Union becomes easy.
