--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Ankur Saxena [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: WHO IS GAYATRI ? GAYATRI A CONFLUENCE OF MANY STREAMS.. Beautiful, thanks for posting Dear brothers and sisters, I tried to present few excerpts from an online rich library...where is an library of spiritual books that meet the raising needs of 21st century. http://www.awgp.org/gamma/LiteratureEnglish 1. Gayatri is known as Adya Shakti, because Brahma who was borm from the Navel Lotus of Vishnu was directed to take support of Gayatri Maha Mantra for creation. Brahma worshipped it and performed tap and brought forth all animate and inabimate creation. 2. Gayatri is defined as Vedmata-the genesis of all Vedas. The four Vedas -Rik, Yaju, Sama and Atharva and hence all streams of knowledge are said to have originated from Gayatri. 3. Gayatri is referred in the scriptures as Amrat, Paras and Kalpavriksha, because it bestows the necter of spirituality, illuminates the inner self of every devotee with divine glow and fulfils all righteous desires. 4. Gayatri is the source of all the PARA: Manifested in the tangible world and APARA: subtle branches of absolute knowledge. 5. The Chhandogya Upanishad states GAYATRI VA IDAM SARVA BHUTAM YADIDAM KINCHA implying that the entire universe is a reflection of Gayatri Power. 6. Gayatri represents the limitless Brahma, eternal, omnipresent, absolute existence of Thy Consciousness Force. 7. Gayatri represents the deity of time, knowledge, pure intellect, prudent foresight, creatuib, progress, welfare which is described in most of the Indian Scriptures. 8. Gayatri symbolize the Five Sheaths (Pancha Kosha): Body Cell, Life Cell, Mind Cell, Knowledge Cell, and Beautidious bliss Cell. of the consciousness force of five realms of its different manifestations and expansion. 9. LORD KRISHNA has identified himself as GAYATRI CHANDASAMHAM, in the Bhagawat Gita (Verse-35: Chapter-10, Analysis of Gayatri in Vibhuti Yoga); meaning to say amongest the poetic components I am the supreme Gayatri. 10. Gayatri is the origin of all the spiritual , conscious, unconscious, and super conscious faculties, cosmic energy and material existance. The cosmic power of Gayatri used for the creation and perceptible realization of this universe and named as SAVITRI. 11. The Science of Gayatri aims at the collective awakening of the righteous intellect, divine sentiments, altruist creativity and eminence. The Science of Savitri deals with the origin and proper utilization of matter and energy. 12. GAYATRI IS :(1) Essence of Knowledge supreme. (2) Fountainhead of wisdom and talents. (3) Eternal absolute. (4) Deliver of souls from the cycles of birth and death. (Gayam trayate eti Gayatri). (5) Giver of wholeness, revealer of Vedas. (6) The pure sublime soul. (7) Adorable spirit of the yogis. - Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. PC-to-Phone calls for ridiculously low rates.

But Mahesh doesn't need any names at all really - a Maharishi dwarfs any epithets given to most others.

There is no Maharishi in TMO. Doesn't caste determine eligibility? How would an orthodox Shankaracharya like Brahmananda Saraswati waver from that? Ksatriya's go into business.

Are you speaking from personal experience? or from your understanding of what the behavior of enlightened people looks like? Who can know what the behavior of enlightened people looks like? TMO has perpetuated dangerous notions that have led to many thinking they know how it should look, both inner and outer. Digging out of 35 years of experience in that organization that has now become a dark hole of desperation. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

Beautiful comments, I think not. Contributing to the incestuous knowledge base m.y. is. Fullness of Emptiness, Emptiness of Fullness...beautiful? How do we get Her? Empty words without application. Maha Lakshmi acheived with such lack of Love? Doubt it. closer to the mark msg 77884 from that hanuman guy is Beautiful as Maha Lakshmi is. Happy Diwali --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Rick Archer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- The following is reported to be Maharishi's beautiful comments on Mahalakshmi ... very timely for this auspicious occasion... HAPPY MAHALAKSHMI PUJA -- DIPAVALI - DIWALI ! = ... Maha Lakshmi ... the first syllable is Maha. Maha, great. And this great in the context of education is the characteristic of consciousness. This Maha is the goal of anyone who is not yet Maha. So, Maha goal is the meaning of the word Laksha... Laksha means the goal (Maha means unbounded, infinite, immortal, eternal, Brahm, Totality, whole). Maha is the goal of that which is not Maha. The goal of Maha is to swing in his greatness. It should be a living reality. That the unbounded does not remain only silent. But in that silence, there should be lively all possibilities. So, the Laksha, the goal, the goal of Maha is to have many in its unified wholeness. And the goal of that what is not Maha, the goal of small is to be big and the goal of big is to swing in its own expressions. Infinity wants to flow from one end of infinity to the other end of infinity and it's flowing, it divides itself, it quantifies itself, it qualifies itself. So it is the qualification which makes one look to the goal. Small wants to qualify itself into as big as possible. The big wants to qualify itself as the field of all possibilities from this end to that end. Maha is a goal and MI is a very, very significant word which is made of two values, MA and I. When we look to MA, naturally it is me, the first to the self, ME, even in English me, but in the Vedic terminology MI we understand as total value of all four Vedas. MA, what MA is, it's the HUM, Hummm. Agnim-m-m. Rig, Yajur, Sama, Atharva. Then Atharva is a Hum. Hum of all the four Vedas... Agni, it s a collapse of all the progression of all the Vedas into a Hum. Hum means the total values of all sounds; all sounds are inherent in Hum. And in that Hum which is focused on a point, that reality of the point is then transformed into dynamism, which is represented by I. So, Maha Lakshmi this is the total Veda, concentrated into the Hum and made dynamism. Here is concentration at a point, which then in its nature is all dynamism. So, in the word Maha Lakshmi we have that enormous, unbounded, total, infinite, eternal immortality expressed in all the Vedas and found located in a point. And then expanding a point in infinity, and dynamism again into Maha. So, here is the total expression of the Veda, total expression of pure knowledge. Along with its infinite organising power in one point concentrating and expanding. This point value, this is Maha Lakshmi... So, the element of Maha Lakshmi is a composite of two values of opposite directions. Focal point and expanding in its nature, this is called Anyonyabhava. It has two kinds of directions, coming in, expanding and going out... So, the Laksha, the goal of expanding value is to concentrate. The goal of concentrated value is to expand. And here is the seed of Maha. This is Maha Lakshmi, at the point, which is both, expansion and contraction, infinite potential of the expansion element we could see along with infinite expansion of contraction element. That means no matter where the situation is, there is all possibility, no matter at what level we are considering or at any level of contraction or at any level of expansion, here or here, at any level is Maha Lakshmi. There is a field of all possibilities and the field of all possibilities in each cell is a concentrated point of silence within the quality of infinite dynamism. Silence and dynamism, that means completely fulfilled of wakefulness. Completely fulfilled because it is not devoid of anything. Infinite silence concentrated, infinite dynamism concentrated and therefore it is eternal state of fulfilment. It is a fulfilment of eternal value. Fulfilment of immortal value because there is a field of all possibilities and in this field of all possibilities is the element of fulfilment, infinite bliss. Infinite bliss is a quality of fulfilment and fulfilment the quality of lack of lack. Devoid of nothingness. It is all fullness, completely fulfilled, self-sufficient infinity, eternity, capable of flowing in terms of waves, modified, qualified and still remaining unqualified at all time. Unqualified qualified fulfilment, that means it
