Thirst for ideal or the reset


The Christ said that to be born again of the Kingdom it was necessary to die of the old person and he did not speak about the death !  Here is is the same image but in today’s fashion: when your Windows is in bulk, reset your PC. It is the deep Meditation. 


 

Summary:


The mind and the nervous system’s fonctioning , for the human being in a environment which is not planned for him, the stressing big cities, the work productivity, a generating family life of suffering because of the life rhythm generates psychic residues which prevent him to operate normally.


That causes confusion and suffering. It would be necessary to make as with a computer: to reset. It is possible thanks to the Agya of the original-yoga. The Agya is a set of three practices which cover the existence from waking up to bed time, living a normal life, and allow to be reset, to recalibrate yourself.



Rebooting



All those who use a computer know the reboot
which names the reset.
When you make a reboot
it is because the computer fails
because of background applications running in spite of you.




The same thing inside



It happens that your mind, your intellect accumulates
all kinds of informations, conscious or unconscious,
coming from stimuli, good, less good or bad events,
from thoughts, speculations, dreamed etc
This information leave traces
which impact your daily life. 
 


Sometimes that appears in the form of culpability, doubts, regrets, attachments or inextinguishable desires. There is also the hidden memory where are the worries, the unhappiness, the anger and the fear. As many inexhaustible sources of bugs which let crash your operating system, the mind.



You are like these computers which heated too much



There are inside you so much slags, remains of the mind and the senses activity that you are blocked, unable to make the difference between the truth, the fake, between the objective and the subjective. From a tool, the mind becomes a Master. Your phantasms become reality and you base your acts on an illusion. If you are in this case, you are the ideal candidate for a reboot. 

 




It is what the path allows you



It offers you a way to reset in your original state, at the present moment. In this moment the mind’s interferences disappear. The fragmentation makes way to the unit.



''One and His Name are the source of the world
The Knowledge leads to the unit ''

[Bhaktimàrga 2-1-1]



 
The existence is a travel back to your country of origin and it is not because the travel can seem long that you should not benefit from the landscape… and then the existence is beautiful, even if it is not perfect nor free from sufferings. The rain after the sun, the sun after the rain, it is thus and it should be accepted as you cannot do anything.





Reasons to suffer


There are always reasons to suffer, that they are related to your own life or to the one of so many other people, throughout the world, who are the victims of injustices and cruelties. The reunion between your Conscience and the inner Peace do not prevent the empathy. 

 




To live well it is necessary to live as what was planned for you. A sea fish will live better in salt water than in a lake. An orang-outang will live better in the deepest primary forest, at the tree tops, than in a cage. It is as follow: to each species its biotope.



 





The human being was not designed to live where he lives today,
in any case in the developed societies.
This inadequacy of the environment to the human being
is not caused by the modernity.
It is the capitalist motivation which makes violence with its nature. 
 


One evening, on the television



A report showed, on the television, the farmer’s life in Ladakh cultivating the barley. When it was very windy they threw the cereals in the air, after having beaten them, to separate the the kernels from the heads.






During this work they sang the glory of the wind come from the close mountains and laughed much. Then this report showed these people, later, who did the same job but with a tractor and a coupled machine with it. This machine automatically sorted the grai and the straw. Only one person in the back was enough, to charge it and an other one on the tractor to cut down a work which required ten times more time and people.

A woman farmer said that the productivity had increased considerably and that they earned more money and had more time. Then she says: 
 


We earn more money but for buying what ?
We save time but for doing what with ?
We do not sing any more, because of the noise of the engine
and we do not work any more together, we do not laugh any more… “

We earn more money but for buying what ?
Now we have more money
but I feel a mental stress which I did not know before.
We had less money, less comfort and less goods
but we were happy.
Now this tension makes me suffer and my desires increase… “



''Go beyond your physical nature that attaches you to the illusion
Free yourself of the duality and of your desires
Stay in the Grace of the Agya
''

[Bhaktimàrga 2-2-16]



The environment of competition 
 




It is this environment where the human lives and who is not adapted to his nature: the need for effectiveness, productivity, race to the performance and the increase in the profits. Since childhood, in the elementary schools, until the retirement our societies let you believe that the goal of the man is to be productive, powerful.




Is the purpose of the Human really to be useful for the establishment of financial wealths producing always more and for low-costs? No, certainly not and the proof is this state of mental stress that lets him suffer so much and pushes some to the nervous breakdown and others to the suicide.


The modernity has nothing to do with that : you can be modern and not crazy ! Now the world lives under the reign of the golden calf which leads you to the slaughter-house. “Sentimental crowd, thirst for ideal…” like said a french well known song. The politicians, who understand nothing, promise more competitiveness to you whereas you dream of ideal. The politics who will speak about ideal, about solidarity will gain your voices ! 
 

This ideal is inside you and it is by resetting your operating system that you will find it. It is what the path offers you: the means, through the Agya, and the four revealed techniques, to be disconnected and find this initial state, this normal state of the human being.

What is the yoga


En français


What is the yoga



The yoga is a state of consciousness reached when the mind is at rest, this word « yoga » has been given, by extension, to the spiritual practices aimed to gather the dispersed Conscience into its own center. 


Putting people in boxes







A person appears in the eye of an other firstly with his physical aspect. Then his clothes, then the intonation of his voice and his eyes, his movements and postures. The spotters of certain luxury shops or hotels have quickly an opinion about somebody according to his shoes, his hands, his hair, his clothes and his general appearance.





  

 
But to define somebody only with these criteria would be too reducing and wrong. A person is not only defined through his physical appearance. What makes a person, except his body, is his spirit [or mind]. The mind is very complex and difficult to describe. In the mind are the drivers in order to let work the major systems in the body. There are the storage places for the short and medium-term memories where are all our existence, our friends, the traumatizing and fundamental events that happened, all what we learned at school and in the life, our personality, how to do bike, swim etc.

 

There is the soul too 
 

Some others think, there is a soul too that would be our true self. It would be the one who doesn't change from our birth till our death. So the child we have been, then the pre-teenager, the teenager, the young boy/girl, the middle-age man/woman and the older man/woman would be one and the same person, only the body and the mind change. The soul would remain the same from the beginning to the end of the existence and would identify us beyond the appearances and the circumstances.


The ego 
 
But inside us are not only the soul and the mind :
there is also the ego.
It is not the enemy that some believe.
It has been given to the soul in order for it to be conscious of itself,
to be able to say ''I'' and also ''yes'' and ''no''
in order for it to have the free-will.
The united soul and ego constitutes the Witness or Conscience.
The villain, the vainglorious is the false-ego :
and yet : it is not there for nothing.
And it is only the absence of right Conscience.
 


The soul is bound to the ego like the moss and the seaweed are bound to bild the lichen, each one is usefull for the other one and both are merged in a single being.

 

   
The yoga (as practice) is firstly a way of living in entirety with the body, the spirit and the soul in full awareness. If you look after yoga in Internet, you will find a lot. This name has been given to all kind of practices beginning from the deepest mysticism to the trendy fitness exercise. 


The original-yoga is not a yoga 
as understand in our area, in the West.
It is firstly a way of life 
putting the Conscience at the first place.


The yoga is to be one in our center 
 
The word yoga [pronounced : youga] : before the eighth century of our time, this word meant freedom, liberation, rest (according to the grammarians)  but since a wandering monk, Adi Shankara1 in the eighth century, it means union, unity of the soul and God, for some and for others : of the Conscience and the Peace that we have inside us.




Yes : we have a center inside us and there is the Peace. Outside, everything is moving, turning, separating, mixing up, slipping. In this center, nothing is moving, everything is always same, peaceful and safe like the wheel axis that rotates continually. Go away from the center and you will be outweighed by the centrifugal force. The more you will go away, the greater the force that outweighs you will be.






The yoga is the gathering of the dispersed Conscience. When it reassembles around its ''kernel'', the perception of the life, of the world is clear. It is also the resting of the mind. Don’t forget the sanskrit root of the word « yoga » means “rest”.


It happened, it happens and it will happen you to be in this peaceful center. In the course of an activity that requires all your attention, you had some of these privileged moments where you have been in peace, calm, happy. You felt then a feeling of fulfillment that made you happy. That is why some people prefer this kind of activities, the ones that require all their attention.


"The union it is to become detached from the thoughts 
By remaining aware of the Holy-Name in its chest
[Bhaktimàrga 2-5-35]


The in-depth practice of a spirituality frightens, sometimes, so much it looks like a religion. The path is not a religion and it is aimed to everybody as long as you are thirsty of Truth and Peace. 


 
1/ Adi Shankara : one of the most famous spiritual master claiming by the Hinduism, even if he was closer to the Vedism, via the yoga. His master was Govindanàtha and the master of Govindanàtha was Gaudapàda. The master of Gaudapàda was Patanjali (not the sanskrit grammarian but the master crafttsman of the Yogasûtra, the initiator of its redaction. The original-yoga recognize itself in this spiritual lineage and produced its own translation of the Yogasûtra.
