Kumar:
Do you really
feel Vijay Kumar... the Man who realized God in 1993 (owner and webmaster of web
sites -
http://www.godrealized.com
and http://www.godrealized.org
Is
in any way connected to Vijay Kumar of Golden Age Foundation... the Oneness University?
Vijay
Kumar... the Man who Realized God in 1993 is in no way connected to Vijay Kumar
and Amma Bhagavan... founders of the spiritual movement known as Oneness University,
The Global Oneness Community based in Golden City, India.
Vijay
Kumar... the Man who realized God in 1993 is the managing trustee of World Wide
Center for Self-Realization... a registered non profit organization located in
Uttaranchal (now Uttarakhand).
Mahavira...
the 24th Tirthankara of Jainism rightly said, "None on Mother Earth has the
right to preach anything unless one becomes a Mahavira... an enlightened one in
life! Having gained self realization in 1993... I had but two paths to pursue...
the path of Mahavira or Buddha!
Mahavira...
the 24th preceptor of Jainism gained enlightenment at 42 years of age. He could
have very then taken moksha (salvation) and gained permanent access into the abode
of God... the kingdom of God (aka Baikuntha in Hinduism). The path did not suit
him. He wanted to give back to the community whatever he had learnt on the spiritual
path!
Mahavira
after gaining enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) continued preaching until the age
of 72 before leaving for the kingdom of God. Mahavira left his mortal frame at
72 years of age. On the contrary Gautama Buddha gained enlightenment at the very
end of life! Nor while living in family... community life or deep dense forests
(jungles) do one gain enlightenment... advised Gautama Buddha!
At 81 years of age... the
moment Gautama Buddha gained enlightenment... he was so frail bodily... he left
for the kingdom of God (Baikuntha in Hinduism) shortly thereafter. Gautama Buddha
advised serious seekers of spirituality to follow the middle path... neither while
living in the community or deep dense jungles (forests) do one gain enlightenment...
he felt!
I realized
God at 37 years of age in 1993! I could have left for the kingdom of God there
and then. Keeping in view the affairs of the family... my two young daughters...
I am presently giving back to the community what I have learnt on the spiritual
path. I have practically followed the path taken by Mahavira!
Having
gained enlightenment... I have reached the end of cosmic life... the Mount Everest
of spiritual pursuit! I have for all practical purposes gained victory over death.
The bodily self carries no meaning for me. I have forever lost all kinds of fear
in life. In practical terms, I have gained omniscience... become the knower of
all.
I have never
ever read Bhagavad Gita in my life yet, it is as if I had dictated the Sacred
Bhagavad Gita in one of my earlier manifestations. Bhagavad Gita... whatever is
contained in Jaina doctrines, the Buddhist scriptures, the sacred Bible and Koran...
all have become clear like ABCD! I have reached the source of all Wisdom (jnana)
contained in the Cosmos!
Maintaining
an ashram carries no meaning for me! All serious seekers of spirituality... the
followers of my writings on the Internet are but mute and silent seekers of spirituality!
I do not ever prefer meeting one in person. Bodily abode carries no further meaning
for me.
My advice
to every serious seeker of spirituality is... following the path of absolute truthfulness
whenever possible! Only by following the path of absolute truthfulness does one
gain absolute control over the five senses and the mind. Practicing Neti (not
this, not this)... the Shavasana way of yoga... one finally transcends all barriers
of physical mundane life.
Practicing
celibacy for a minimum continuous period of 12 years is another essential necessity
on the spiritual path. It would not be impertinent to mention that in the entire
history of mankind only two women gained enlightenment till date... Maitreyi and
Gargi... in whose memory the famous Gargi and Maitreyi colleges in New Delhi,
India exist!
Maitreyi
was the wife of famous sage Jnanavalakya (the compiler of Brihadaranakya Upanishad)!
Gargi... the famous philosopher defeated pundit Mandan Mishra on the infamous
topic of sex... a taboo at that time!
For
women it is pertinently difficult to gain enlightenment. Why? The deep imbibed
feeling of Moha (affection) that exists within every woman inherently bars one
from traveling the spiritual path. If it were not so... the whole mankind would
witness chaos of the highest order. Children loitering everywhere... none to take
care of them... society would have lost its meaning!
To
cut across the shackles of Moha (affection) is very difficult for women folk.
It was ordained by God Almighty! Those who overcome the bondage of Moha affection
gain enlightenment in their lifetime! Maitreyi and Gargi were amongst them!
Our
body... the human form is simply a garment for the soul atman within! It is our
soul atman that has manifested the body... the human form... the living form to
work out its karma... remove the dross impurities within! In the circumstances
to cut across the shackles of bodily charm... practicing absolute celibacy for
a minimum period of 12 years becomes difficult!
Taking
control of five senses and the mind is another hurdle on the spiritual path! The
choice of life... the path absolutely rests with every individual! To follow or
not to follow is the sole prerogative of every individual human being! I can but
guide one on the spiritual path. All intelligent queries addressed to me would
definitely be replied!
The
whole crux of spiritual life... the human form is diminishing of queries within
us! The moment last query within a human being dissolves forever... one reaches
the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi... when one can have a dialogue with God Almighty
on one-to-one basis and that too permanently! One finally overcomes the world
of Samsara (worldly life)!
The
entire spiritual world is beyond the capture of senses... the prime reason why
Bhagavad Gita even though available for a mere Rs 18 (US $.40) at most railway
stations of India... is still not reachable! The gist of Bhagavad Gita can never
be understood literally. Traveling the path of absolute truthfulness... we need
to read in between the lines!
Bhagavad
Gita... the most sacred Scripture of Hinduism that exists on Mother Earth is the
end of all. For every serious seeker of spirituality, Bhagavad Gita... one single
document is sufficient to reach the level of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and
finally salvation (moksha) forever. There is nothing beyond Bhagavad Gita that
is worth knowable in the whole Cosmos. The knower of Bhagavad Gita finally becomes
the knower of all... one gained omniscience!
One
last piece of advice... in every essay article on my website... one shall find
hidden ingredients of truth and spirituality that need to be unearthed by one!
Some of my essays are as pure in nature... as many readings... as many meanings
shall one derive!
Whenever
there is a query... one can always clarify from me. Gradually one shall alleviate
to the highest platform of spirituality! Always remember... we have one life to
live! We do not know what we shall be in the next manifestation!
