Who am I? (Body or Mind or Soul)


                   --Thiruvadi Theekshai - Holy feet initiation --



Arutpernjothi Arutpernjothi Thani perum karunai!!



When we were fetus in mother womb, we were small in size. We took food from mother's womb. After we take birth we have food from mother earth.

We grow our body by eating food/fruits/vegetables. We convert food to our human body. Cells / blood/ tissues/bones/nerves are created by the food and other five elements we eat. We have a potential to convert food to human. If food was out side(not eaten), making human body is impossible task. Have we ever thought about that great potential? Ignored it? Take it for granted?

We learn everything from others. After birth mother tells who is father/mother/relatives.. Parents feeds many other information. Friends feed what they know from others. Teachers give many knowledge about this world. What ever stored in us act as mind. Mind acts through our five senses. Our mind act based on the information stored. Five senses are eyes,ear,tongue,nose,skin.

Body is built by us, mind works based on the information within us.These two are our TOOLS. We have home/money/Car. Similarly we have body and mind. Is it not?

We are identifying others and our self with body and mind. Body and mind are our tools. We identify others with their tool.

Is it not a false/wrong life we are living?

Science says our body cells completely becomes new every ~7 years. Mind also keeps changing.We struggle our life with tools that are not permanent. Then what is permanent in this world? We eat sleep reproduce like animals.

We are not body and mind. Then who are we? We are The SOUL/Spirit/Athma. In Tamil its called as UYIR.There are many names give to SELF. We should not get confused.

But we have not experienced it, we experience our self as body and mind.

Soul is the one which convert food/air/water/.. to human body. It takes care to create all cells(blood,bone,nerve,...) in our body. Even in our sleep it takes care of the body with perfection. We have great potential within. But have we ever thought of it?

Souls can't be destroyed. Its a permanent one. Should not we realize that?

Soul is responsible for  Creation  Maintenance destruction of cells and many more activities.

In Hindu tradition we call it as BRAHMA VISHNU SIVAN. All are in our body. But we are searching this outside temples. Should n't we turn inward to see them?

If one dies, body lies in the ground, soul departs. "People say he left only body is lying here. Bury it". When condition of the body gets worse soul quits the body. We can't live in a home that's in very bad state. We look for some other house.Should not we know self before this death? Saints say it rare, very rare to attain the human birth.

We always look out side, that's what is taught to us. From our childhood we are taught to study well in school, get good marks and earn more money. Life was aligned to money/material. Though its important for the life, we made it as our life. Priority was given only for money.

No one has taught us to find who we are. We don't allow the children to ask these kinds of questions. Its very sad. We don't know that all suffering in life is due to lack of this knowledge.

Now we understood I'm Soul/Athma/Spirit. But we are not able to realize/experience that. Why?

We lived our life by looking outside and accumulated many things using mind. They all got stored in us. When we turn inward accumulations stored in us make us to look outside.We call these accumulations as KARMA(action). All sufferings in the life is because of the karmic accumulation.

Every one in this world want to live a happy life! How it will happen? By eating, drinking, sleep or sex? These are temporary. The end result is suffering. It is not everlasting and not infinite and considered to be very negligible when compared with divine bliss. Only realizing self will give infinite pleasure.

To live a happy life one should clear this karma first. How to clear that? Is there a way?  Is it possible?

Yes!

One should know what Ramalinga vallalar done for people of this world.

In Vadalore(200 Kms from chennai, 30 Kms from Chidambaram, 106 kms from Thiruvannamalai)

Ramalinga vallalar established a temple called Sathya Gnana Sabai. It is called as spiritual temple for this world. He built a temple to represent God as such. Unlike other temples,   Sathya Gnana Sabai symbolizes the body, soul and karma. There is a Lamp/Jothi inside the temple. 

There are 7 screens before the Jothi.
Temple       -  Body
7 screens    -  Karma, Maya, Ego
Lamp/Jothi  -  Soul.

One has to open the door - Thiruvadi/Holy feet of this temple-body, remove all seven screens to
see the Jothi/Soul.

Now we don't know how to do that. From childhood we always learn from others. If we don't know physics we ask physics teacher. If we don't know how to prepare food we ask mother. Same we need to take help from someone who knows this. Find someone who is having this as experience. Vallalar advised people to 
seek a perfect teacher and get the center of the eyes(pupil) opened.

That 'someone' is called GURU.  He is spiritual teacher.

MATHA(mother) PITHA(father) GURU(teacher) Deivam(God). We know father and mother, next
step is to surrender to Guru and realize the soul/spirit and God.

When we have karma(impure) God won't let us near to him. We should do THAVAM/Penance with help of Guru to clear the karma. Once karma is cleaned we are eligible to see our self and God.

VEDAM/KURAN/BIBLE/BAGAVATHGEETHA and many other scriptures says God is light.

RAMAMLINGA VALLALAR says God as Arut-perun-jothi. A vast - grace - light.  Our soul is a tiny bit of that vast light. A small jothi.

Only after realizing the soul we can see the God. Till that time God is an imagination.

To realize self, we should know where is soul in our body.

God being compassionate on his children has kept the soul in a safe place.  Where?

As per the songs of siddhas, experienced masters and saints, head is the most important part of our body. All five senses are in our head. The head is the safe place covered with skull. Soul is present in head. Soul is in the meeting point of five senses in our head. Our five senses are the ways to interact with the world. These are doors in our body.

Since soul is a tiny light in center of head and expressed in one of our five senses. we have to use a sense that is related to light. What is that sense?

EYES!!!! 

The light of the soul is expressed in our eye. The pupil of eye has a tiny hole. We need to open the blocked hole with help of GURU.

There are 4 steps in spirituality.

SARIYAI      - Going to holy places.
KRIYAI        - Chant Matras/Holy words
YOGAM       - Breathing exercises, yoga ....
GNANAM.   - Knowing god through self.

In first three steps above we'll use mind. All the activities happens using the mind. The last and final step Gnanam we should not use the mind!  What to do with the mind? Surrender the mind to holy feet of God. 
Its called pupil of eyes. Is it possible to surrender?  Yes! Its possible after we take holy feet initiation from the Guru. 

When our mind start working, karma will keep increasing. So we should stop the mind. So one should meet the guru get initiated for self realization. Guru will guide us with compassion.

This is technique was followed by Siddhas/Saints.

This initiation is called THIRUVADI/HOLY FEET THEKSHAI.

EYES ARE HOLY FEET(THIRUVADI) OF GOD.

Once initiated from guru, we should DO NOTHING(SUMMA IRU -Tamil), surrender the mind in the holy feet of God. EYES!!! Do Thavam with determination. Karma will get cleared by the pure heat generated. Tears will flow like a river and drenches the body.  This what vallalar told in the song Gnana Sariyai.

There are 7 layers before the soul. Vallalar represented this in VADALORE TEMPLE(sathya gnana sabai) as 7 screens. All 7 layers has to be destroyed by penance. The light in the eyes travels and reaches the soul.
All 72000 naadis are opened and purified with the pure heat of Thavam(meditation).  1008 petal lotus blooms in the brain. Bliss! Bliss! 

Significance of Guru. 
Guru brahmaa 
Guru vishnuh
Guru devo maheshvarah
Guru saakshaat para-brahma tasmai shree gurave namah

Guru is parabrahma. Para-brahma is Vast grace light.

Guru being with us, helps to clean all the karmas. Only we need to do is DO NOTHING(SUMMA IRU). Every thing will happen in suksuma.

When God appears before you, first thank the guru, then thank God. If you were not clean God will not
come near to you. Guru's work is incomparable.

Take bath in the meeting point of three oceans in Kanniya Kumari. Pray vallai - Bagavathi amman(mother of all souls). Meet guru on or before 9 am on any day with prior appointment, obtain upadesam(preaching) Thiruvadi Deeskhai(Initiation).

Be blessed by Vallalar.

Who is GURU?

                                                       Who is GURU?



One who tells is guru! One who hears is Disciple/Student. Guru is the
one who make unknown to known. Disciple is the one who knows and realize
that.

We are still learning from our birth. Goddess of education Sarasvathi is still
learning.

Known is a drop, unknown is an ocean was told by lady saint Avvaiyar.
We learn from many information from many people. Each and every one are guru.

We learn from nature and many living beings. All of them are guru.

Then why Guru is highlighted?  Why guru has given importance?

All living beings provides information to us. They provide information for our better living.

One who induces our intelligence,shows the path for self realization(Who am i)
and gives the feeling/consciousness in the EYES is called GURU.

Incomparable guru! Sathguru ! Gnana guru! We should get a guru who can show the way for
self realization, Only he can tell the way to get out of birth cycle.

Sathguru is the one who shows the way to live a healthy life and to come get out
of birth cycle.

A gnana guru is the one induces the thinking of ignorant people, creates feeling/consciousness
in the eyes, help them to progress in the life.

Incomparable guru is a sathguru! Sathguru is gnana guru. We are safe if we find a guru.
If we don't get then we'll get struck with birth cycle.

All human beings learn many things while growing physically.

All children are good when they take birth in this world. Then brought up decides whether he
becomes good and bad by character. Irrespective of the situation/environment we grow,
god gives the situation for self realization.


Even though karma drives the life, god helps/bless us in knowing self. Major contribution is
done by saints(gnani).  This is the nature of saints attained DEATHLESSNESS. These saints accompany
and help the souls which like to attain self realization. They help to get rid of the karma.

We need not see/realize these saints.  They know us better.


These saints don't differ people by caste,religion,language,country .
The whole world is my place; the whole humanity is my fraternity. This is the state of them.

My duty is to do the work assigned.

Saints help and bless the souls volunteerly, without expectations,differences.

Innumerable siddhar saints emerged in India. We should be proud of taking birth in our country. Ramalinga adigal Thiru Arut Prakasa vallalar Ramalinga swamigal incarnated in the last century. He attained highest possible level in the spirituality the DEATHLESSNESS.

This humble being's sathguru is Ramalinga swamigal. My guru Jothi Ramaswami desigar educated/preached me the Thiruvadi Gnana of  Ramalinga swamigal and gave the Deekshai. Practiced and achieved the teachings. I was embraced by Ramalinga swamigal. Before my guru Jothi Ramaswami desigar (Identified and shown to me by Ramalinga swamigal) attained samadhi, he made this humble being as GURU.

He made this humble being a matured soul and made me to write the book "KANMANI MALAI".
In next 12 years Ramalinga swamigal made this humble being as Guru.

He use me as tool, to do the work of guru. He gives the Deekshai residing in me.It's the punniya done by this humble being.  Blessed by saints and functioning as gnana guru. Doing the work given by Ramalinga swamigal. He helped to do the work elegantly.

Worldly people come here!
Get the preaching!
It's necessary to get Deekshai!

The rare birth as human is to realize god. Don't delay. Come and get eyes opened.

For many people there is a confusion in selecting a guru.

One group praises the sadu in their caste.
One group praises the sadu in their religion.
One group praises the sadu in their language.

If its told in Arabic, told in hibru, told in tamil,told in sanskirit, all saints preached about God.

World's first guru(Aadhi Guru) is Dhaksina moorthi. This is the Truth! After that
only son preached father(Muruga to shivan). Then it was preached to Saint Agathiyar
Saint Arunagiri.

Swami Ramalinga swamigal came in the same path, generation after generation.
Swami instructs by residing in me to give Deekshai.

One who give clear knowledge about self(who am i), make to realize self and guide
us is the true guru.

Wheel That was not cut,
Mandiram that doesnt talk
Flower that is not reached by others,
...
...

One who can explain this is can help to realize god.

Guru is one who reveals and make to realize the secrets. Giving deekshai by being a
guru with the blessing of enlightened masters.

clarity is to see the body of the guru
clarity is to tell name of the guru
clarity is to hear the words of guru
clarity is to think about guru

Gnana sathguru Siva Selvaraj

Clear karma and realize self

Trasnlated version.
 
Depends on the paava and punniya(karmic accumulation) we did, god gives the body and send us to the world. Body functions based on the karma, all are maya(illusion).  If we live in the current way body will be destroyed. 

He will destroy the body! Need to convert mortal body to immortal body.  We need to see the light in the pupil of the eye feel and mediate. Incomparable meditation (Summa Iru) Doing nothing. "Karma Yields the body"  said by enlightened master.

To attain immortal body there should be no karma.  To attain that we need to work on gnana.Do nothing!  Light in the pupil should be received from guru, realize and do the meditation.There will be progress in the meditation and clear/melt all the karma vinai(in the form of 7 screen) in the subtle form.  When karma vinai reduces, the pure light  increases.  It spreads all over the body.Physical body becomes light body! No more birth!  If there is not karma vinai then there is no birth!

Three types of  karma
1.  Prarabdha karma 
2   Sanchita karma 
3   Aakanmiyam

If  disciple gets initiated by guru and do the mediation then his prarabdha karma will get reduced. After getting initiation Theekshai from guru,  disciple lives discipline life. So there wont be Aakanmiyam.  Even if Aakanmiyam comes out, guru will take care and show grace to disciple.  When disciple do the mediation continuously,  light in the eye is increased/multiplied, gnana light increases. Sanchita karma will get reduced.  What ever sufferings disciple face, god will take care. 

We need to work to reduce the karma.  That's work of shiva! We need to increase the silence and do nothing with mind.  This is work if shiva.  If we surrender to the light in pupil of eye we can live life blissfully every day. We can live, make others live! Become guru and protect the whole world.
