Philosophy and Spirituality-being an Atheist to becoming a Poet.

I keep wondering if there really is a difference.

Philosophy is generally referred to as the science of thoughts.

It is also anyones view point of life different philosophers have different viewpoints. Everyone has a view, each is perfect in his or her place.The human is divided into so many different consciousness levels each perfect in the whole.

Example- A God believer-All is God so big , so great this universe is fully alive and intelligent and

I am a small part of it and here it could-also becomes the whole-I am also the whole.

An Atheist-There is no God everything the planets,stars ,sun rotation ,revolution so much just happens to be there.

Man made God for power or whatever.

His time has yet to come its really very simple this is how its made.

Spirituality-spiritual dimensions study or knowledge of Spirits, spirit world,spirits.

There is Super consciousness where one becomes the size of Galaxies. Encounters the soul.

Then there is Christ or Krishna Consciousness- God Consciousness.

Various dimensions of the Spirit exist.

Encountering spirits and having a telepathic conversation.

One who has experienced super consciousness and not Krishna or Christ -God consciousness will, may easily believe

the experience to be Enlightened- BEWARE. There is happines ,ecstacy in it but nothing compared to the dimension of the Light,the ecstacy of the Light.

Drugs, Phsycotropics plants are used by the sages in rare cases to expand human consciousness as the reality of the Light or God is staggering and can easily make you mad if you are not ready or put you in a state of shock or coma. People who meditate do not require such plants or drugs their mind has been expanded due to penance of meditation the long lasting correct way.

The Master or Shaman will guide you it is not something you fool around with.

They -drugs-must be dropped on the path in case you ever take it. Today drugs are being used to be cool, be a part, to run away for some time,this will not have good karma.To much pressure on the human to survive.

I was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean a Second Officer- total yuppy-, an athiest, when I had my God Experiece and it took me years to come to terms with it:

I was an Atheist till the age of around 24 -then I got Enlightened and my life went for a total toss,my priorities started changing,what was important had now became foolish I had other things to do. I have absolutely no control over my life God does what he wants through me and I have also given myself up to him.

I have mocked the Sages,the Prophets the Poets when I was young. My twin sister and me if we were to go to a temple,

I generally waited outside as I didnt belive in God.

Friends would come down from Mumbai and we would take the tour of the Osho ashram.The first two times I was asked to leave as I told them they were all mad and they told me I was disturbing the harmony of the ashram.The Third time after Enlightenment I went around the Osho ashram with respect and an apology to Osho and all the masters Enlightened Ones.

Today I preach God thr ough my poetry,life is strange. Started writing poetry at the age of 30 ,became afull time poet at the age of 33 and am currently 38 years old.

Enlightenment is not the end of Knowledge

Enlightenment is not the end of Knowledge.

An Enlightened One has gained knowledge of the Light Of God-Its very existence.

Another journey starts after Enlightenment which is all knowledge.

Who am I has been answered,why am I here comes next.

I created my self and this universe with my thoughts which is something that keeps staggering me.

How long will I live on this planet.When do I learn cosmic Sciences like Astrology,palmistry so much.

If I am prepared I will go to the Light with my last breath.

Why am I still here what does God or creation want me to do ,why is it still keeping me here.

How do things in my body function,how was this tree made,why is there a Sun endless questions.

The Final Stage is called Maha Samadhi or Full Enlightened, Omniscience all knowledge.

Contemplation is not Meditation

Contemplation is to ponder to think on something ,anything.


Sages are often lost in divine contemplation, contemplatimg the Light ,God.





I may have seen pictures of a mango and heard how sweet it is but unless I have not eaten it I really do not know.





The same way one must be Enlightened to contemplate God.





Writing Poetry is a very high standard of contemplation where the poet fuses with the cosmos and crates words and sentences.


Contemplation is not meditation.It starts with contemplation then goes to meditation.
To contemplate your purpose of being here is vefry important in life.Meditation will show you the path you must walk.


A wise man contemplates life, fools know it all.





Meditation is One pointed concentration between your eyebrows with your eyes closed.You use your breath as the medium to fuse your soul with the supersoul.

Free Will and Destiny- Earths movement at its Pole

Please have a look at this diagram on wikipedia . the pictures I have drawn below are quite sad.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutation

The Earths axis is tilted at 23.5 degrees.

Looking from the pole the north pole creates a circle due to this tilt in the axis.

Due to gravitational pulls of celestial sphereS like the sun and moon the Earth wobbles ,and the circle is

not perfect.

Earths axis at the pole inclined at 23,5 degress creates a circle

a -

b - -h

c - -g

d - -f

e -

This circle is not prefet but wobbles

a -

- -
b - -h

- -

c - -g

- -

d - -f

- -

e -

-

Destiny is picture one the a,d,c,d,e,f and g is fixed.

FREE WILL is drawing two where the circle is not perfect but wobbles.Point a is fixed and so is point b.

In between you can go straight from a to b or deviate a little.This devation is your free will and the fixed points your destiny.

I believe it was Ramana Maharishi who when asked about FREE WILL and DESTINY said.

Its like a cow witha rope tied to it.The cows free will is limited to the lenght of the rope.

The poet IQBAL 5th Century--The idea of life is to merge with the cosmic will.Your WILL should become the cosmic WILLl.

GURU NANK- To make the universal WILLas our personal will with all the joys and delicious pain of human love in his intense passion.

Guru Nanak- Visit by Doctor to cure him of his madness

GURU NANAK-Visit by Doctor to cure him of his madness

Guru Nanaks answer-None has a cure for the pang of love.

I pine for my beloved.

Who gave the pain will cure it.

You have no cure for me.

He was looked on one as dead.

GURU NANAKS Father-They say you do nothing I am ashamed of you.

GURU NANAK- I do something that others cannot understand.

I have already enetered his service. I cannot serve another.

I go wither he takes me and I do as he Bids me.

GURU NANAK Mother-My son do not go away now but come and live in your house as of old.

GURU NANAK- My house is his temple,Mother.God is my home and his grace is my family.

His pleasure is my utmost riches.He judges me not,He is kind and merciful as none else is.

H e blesses and blesses without end.He provides me with everything.I am forever happpy in him.

Of what use is this life of houses,wherein a thousand desires consume te man and there is no rest,

neither in walking nor in dreams.

I drink his very presence.i eat of his precious substance and partake of his light.

Mother Earth a poem from Ponder Awhile

MOTHER EARTH

Mother Earth actually looks after me,
She neither expects nor charges a fee.

Every year fresh fruits she provides to eat,
For those fruits, one another man will beat.

So much water is there for us all,
For water it often becomes an ugly brawl.

A tiny insect on her I am,
Feeding me with her assorted jam.

Man keeps beating her with his big bombs,
When will he realize that she is alive
and that it is wrong?

Her we must begin to appreciate,
Immediately before it gets too late.

From our puny race she will defend herself,
You are just begging her to annihilate yourself.

Babaji-The ultimate sacrifice

BABAJI the MASTER of the HIMALAYAS is considered to be over two thousand years old.

Known to materialise and dematerialise from thin hair he is a higly regarded Master from India.

It is through him that thes science of KRIYA YOGA has come back into being after a long lost time.

When man decides he has had enough and does not want to return to this world he starts to practice KRIYA YOGA.

The YOGIS realsied that controlling ones breath up and down ones spine evolves th soul very fast.

No human is spared all must practice KRIYA YOGA in their last life.

It is said masters like KRISHNA and SAI BABA were practioners of KRIYA YOGA.

BABAJI has made promise to never leave this planet till all humans get ENLIGHTENED.

He can easily cross over to the light to bliss but choses to stay back in order to save souls.

THE ULITIMATE SACRIFICE

I gladly bow to thee.

Mohit Misra is a poet whose book Ponder Awhile has won him accolades from around the world.Times Of India Eastsideplus Pune 5th Oct 2007

Times Of India
Eastsideplus Pune Friday 5th October 2007

He Loves what he"s doing

Mohit Misra is a poet whose book Ponder Awhile has won him accolades from around the world.
Read on to discover why this unconventional poet took to writing
Varun Godinho : eastside

Some writers have an inborn talent. Others have a flair for writing.And there are still others who have begun writing books due to a rather unconventional reason-a sudden attainment of the state of Nirvana. For Mohit Misra a 37 year old poet and author of "Ponder Awhile' life has come a full circle.

Woking with the merchant navy since 1995 he was an absolute atheist .It was during one of his sails in 2003 that he went into a meditative transition and attained the state of Samadhi – a term which is used to describe an enlightened one It was then that he decided to give up his worldy attachments, his job included and domsomething that would ap into and rlease the immense knowledge and wisdom which is accompanied with this state.


The poems encapsulate the universal theme of mankind with a spiritual background to each of them.The process of writing the book was certainly not an easy one."There were times that writing jut one of the poems could take me several weeks.I was constantly struggling to better each and every poem of mine " says Mohit.

Like all great minds, Mohit was initially ridiculed by family and friends when he begun writing his book."I had a number of bitter critics who said this was not my age and time to write such a book
And expressed serious reservations about me doing so" says a visible distressed Mohit while recalling those times.
However his perseverance and diligence eventually bore fruit and silenced his critics when he first published his book in 2005.The effort and dedication that has been put in has won him several kudos.on an online portal –bestbookbuys, his book has been declated to number one book for 2006 in the Poetry,inspirational and religious section. Amazon has included his book among their top 100 bestsellers.

Since the book has not constricted itself to any one particular religion but spreads the message of a universal and One God for all the religions, Christain priests have requested permission to include his poems as part of their sermons while holy men from the Hindu religion have openly spoken in praise of his work.

To date 1500 copies have been sold both in India and abroad. His book is available online and exclusively in Amazons retail outlets
In the country."Now that my book has got the required recongnition ,I intend to translate my book into several languages and thus further its appeal."Judging by the response that he has already received we are sure that this I one poet that the city of Pune can call its very own Shakespeare!

Enlightenment is so misunderstood by man.-Pain doesnt go after Enlightenment

Enlightenment is so misunderstood by man.-Pain doesnt go after Enlightenment

I just took an appointment with my dentist as my cavity is beginning to pain.

ENLIGHTENMENT is when the human dies consciously in meditation, fuses with the light and then comes back.

Yes you certainly are different after that , you become God man.

Still remember you come back as a human and certain things do not change.

I still feel hunger and thirst, like woman and love my beer.

After ENLIGHTENMENT PAIN DOES NOT STOP.

My tooth this cavity hurts. I practised karate for a few years and was very often beaten up black and blue.

Couldnt walk at times, broke my ribs, my hands and believe me there was a lot of pain.

At the same time I know the cosmos looks after me and I just keep working on my poetry book.

There is this place I can go to in me where nothing bothers me-I see it all as gods doing and am at peace.

My family and friends have called me mad and said make money how are you going to live,how can you live without money.I tell them God looks after me.

Very often I am lost in diveine contemplation and try to meditate every day.After meditation I am calm and do not have any problems.

An ENLIGHTENED ONE has died and come back.He now knows Death is the door to the LIGHT ,God or absolute bliss.

HIS HOME where he will return once he dies, he is not here forever and death is his biggest boon.

Holi -Celebration of the Light

Victory of Phralad over the demon Holika.

Good or the LIGHT will allways win.The misuse of power with meditation will not last..
ON THE RIGHT PATH YOU WILL GET MORE POWERFUL WITH TIME .
All strenght has been given to the indivisual so he can help others he must use it to good.
No one will be spared if he or she uses divine or cosmic power for harm.
Self defence is another story.

Insult to the sages is something the Universe does not tollerate.

ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE- Poet Mohit.K.Misra -Indian Express Pune Newsline

ARTBEAT

One with the universe
Shveta Vashist Gaur
My friends are yellow, brown and white,What difference does it make to light
Contemplative and simple, Ponder a While is not just a composition of some 66 poems, but an experience that leaves you with your thoughts alone. “I knew this would happen,” says Mohit K Misra, the 37 year-old former Merchant Navy sailor who underwent a revelation that not just changed his life, but also changed him as a human being.
“It happened when I was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and found my enlightenment,” he recollects. So, while you go through the immense response that Misra has received for his work on the internet and in person, what leaves you wonderstruck is his way of composing his feelings. Framed in couplets, his poetry canvasses spirituality and the human mind. “I write in dohas to make even the most complex subjects simple. My emphasis has been on the metrical length and rhyme because that pattern is easy to understand and even remember,” he says. Very much so as the language is so unmistakable straightforward, that even a child can understand it. “
Having sold 1,000 copies so far, Misra wants to concentrate on propagating his message—oneness with the universe. “We usually separate ourselves from the universe and keep complaining about our misfortunes and various negativities. My book asks the reader to unite with the universe and be one with it,” he explains. Deriving inspiration from god, love and light, Misra says he has spent the last seven years reading extensively on spirituality and then was able to write on it. “One has to be prepared for death and know that we will all be gone one day,” he says.
Ever since Misra’s spiritual journey began with An Autobiography of a Yogi, he has read almost all the spiritual writers around, right from Herman Hesse to Mikhael Naimy and many more. And, it wasn’t like Misra was always prepared to talk about his thoughts openly. “I have thought a lot and only when I was ready about it, did I talk about it,” he says. The message that he now wants to propagate is, “God is not for others, he is for us only. And, it isn’t that sages and saints are people from another planet, they are all as human and as normal,” he explains.
Misra will soon be heading to Delhi for a poetry reading session for Dahiya Badshah, an Indian poet from Philadelphia.

Oshos Enlightenment day on a FUll moon

Osho claime ENLIGHTENMENT on this day 21 of march at the young age of 22.

He went on to become a Philosophy teacher in Jabalpur India.

Knowing he had a higher purpose being ENLIGHTENED he gave discourse in various places

and soon had a huge following of disciples all over the globe.

Today is the FULL MOON a symbol for ENLIGHTENMENT sybollising the whole :

I also got ENLIGHTENED 0n a FULL MOON night cant remember the month -march or may or June,it was the beginning of the year.

Osho means oceanic knowledge and he was extremely well read having read INDIAN MYSTICS to EUROPEAN SAINTS AND PHILOSOPHERS.A brillaint sense of humour OSHO would often end with a joke and by doing that would keep the mood light.

Different and controversial OSHO as a MASTER has done a brilliant job in spreading knowledge of GOD of the LIGHT:

What is a Manuscript or Book and why do the wise give it so much respect?

What is aMANUSCRIPT or BOOK and why do the WISE give it so much respect?

Symbols, letters and words represent something have a meaning.Many MASTERS have come and left their knowledge through thier works their MANUSCRIPTS AND BOOKS.

We as humans are here for a short life of say eighty years.This way we can read a book thousands of years old and understand it by picking up the vibrations the meaning of these symbols or words or sentences.We gain WISDOM this way.Even now there are the wise ones whos books we can read sitting in another Country ,we may not get to meet him but we get the essence of his KNOWLEDGE through his work.

This is the reason MANUSCRIPTS and BOOKS are so precious and deserve respect.

God Knowledge, Poetry will defy time.

You Do Not Have To Be So Called Vegetarian To Get ENLIGHTENED

GURU NANAK-THE PROPHET-THE MASTER POET-
Who is to say what is Veg and what is Non veg-It is the fool who argues on the merit of Religion.





Everything is alive even the plants.


Hunters have know to exist since the beginning of time.Huge populations live at the sea and eat fish as their staple diet.


My father is a Hindu a vegetarian and my mother a Parsee a Non Vegetarian.


For Parsees its not food without meat and that does not make them less spiritual.





I got ENLIGHTENED in the Merchant navy and was eating Non Vegetarian every day.





Basically whatever comes on your plate thank GOD the CREATOR for providing it to you and eat it.


Do not sensely, kill for pleasure that is insane and will have its karmic consequences.





Red Indians hunted and killed the Bisons but it was allways with lot of respect and never more than what was


required.There was respect for the CREATOR today I will kill to eat and tommorrow I will be used for some animals food
when I die its a cycle.

When To Act and When Not To Act

WHEN TO ACT AND WHEN NOT TO ACT

a-A priest"s village begins to flood seriously.In a few days the village is evacuated only the priest remains behind although a boat comes to fetch him twice.
He is then on his roof with the water up to his neck and the boat comes again.He again sends the boat back saying I am a man of GOD He will save me.

With time the water rises higher and drowns the priest.In the gates of heaven he meets GOD and says I am your follower why did you let me drown and die.
GOD says-BUT I SENT THE BOAT THREE TIMES

b-KRISHNA is serving food to his guest when suddenly he says he must go.
The bevildered guest asks what is the matter.
KRISHNA replies one of my disciples is in trouble he needs me, a wild cat is approaching him he calls for my help.
The guest knowing that KRISHNA was no ordinary man but an ENLIGHTNED ONE said please do go.
Shortly to the guest is surprised as KRISHNA returns really fast.
what happened asked the guest.
KRISHNA replied he picked up a stone HE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH FAITH IN ME.

KNOW when to act and when not to act choose wisely.

Shivaling-Represents God Shiva and Enlightenment

There are three aspects to a SHIVALING.


1-The pillar or column represents the tunnel the soul must go through in meditation to reach the SUPERSOUL


2-The semi hemisphere in the centre of the SHIVALING is the SUPERSOUL In the beginning you see the SUPERSOUL as just a point of light.Then you move to and fro from it with every breath.Eventually the point of light grows in size and becomes huge like the size of the moon.This is when one must let go and implode into this light.


3.The circular ring around the SHIVALING is the explosion that happens after the implosion.You become endless a part of the LIGHT bliss.

Eternity

ETERNITY

My friends are yellow, brown and white,
What difference does it make to the light?

The joke that beholds us all,
Comes to us only at the moment of our greatest fall.

Death is our friend,
Where there is no trend,
Why fear it is really near.

Why show me the light, why confuse me?
Ignorance was bliss why did you diffuse me?

To know is to be a liar,
What better way to throw me into fire?

When in pain I say your name,
The reality that is, is no more the same.

The light that shines beyond the star,
Is the same in my heart.

Philosophy-Religious books rank 2.A Secular Age by Charles Taylor,4.Ponder Awhile by Mohit.K.Misra

http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1598991,00.html
When he got the call from the Templeton Foundation a few weeks ago, Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor admits he was totally surprised. That's because the past few winners of the annual Templeton Prize, worth more than $1.5 million and awarded "for progress toward research or discoveries about spiritual realities," has been given to scientists — physicists and cosmologists mostly, who have been willing to acknowledge that science alone can't necessarily explain the nature of the universe. It's clear that the foundation was consciously trying to counter the widespread impression that science and spirituality are inevitably at odds.

Shiva-Om Namo Shiva-Shiv Ho Hum

SHIVA is regarded by the HINDUS as

a-The first ENLIGHTENED human from whom man gained knowledge of the cosmic light.

b-God or the cosmic light-supreme entity-supremely intelligent -creator of all.

Hindus have two seed mantras concerning SHIVA

A- OM NAMO SHIVA-means I bow to ShIVA OR GOD

B- SHIV HO HUM-means I am SHIVA OR GOD

Both are correct.

It is easier for an ENLIGHTENED human to say SHIV HO HUM

So basically there are two I s.

a- the small i when you say OM NAO SHIVA meaning I the human bow to SHIVA- to GOD.

b- the big I when you say SHIV HO HUM meaning I am SHIVA my other or higher self.

Zaratushtra-First recorded Prophet

ZARATUSHTRA the PARSI PROPHET is the first recorded PROPHET:

He came back from the hills and talked about the Divine light.

Off course some called him Mad it has and will allways happen.

An experience where two became ONE:

He say an invisible bridge is to be crossed by man in this life.Its the very purpose of man.

The three stages of life are Man ,God man and God.

His basic teachings are Good Thoughts,Good Words,God Deeds.

All is you is a what an Enlightened human understands.

How can he harm someone else knowing that someone else is also him materialised by the light.

Defend youself thats for sure you are not here to be abused or insulted by anyone including family and friends.

Poetry book -possible only by an Enlightened One

A POETRY BOOKS- RELIGIOUS POEMS is considered by literary pundits as a mental exercise of the highest order possible and carried out

only by an ENLIGHTENED ONE.

The rest are writing in order to satisfy the ego.

POETRY must be timeless and so must be on cosmic truths which defy time.

The POET enters into a kind of SAMADHI for years in order to complete his work and for him nothing else is more important his own life comes second after the book.

OSHO says amongst the ENLIGHTENED ONES the most rare is POET as it is the most difficult path to follow it takes a lot of talent. This is a combination of genius with extreme effort and takes a lot of energy.It is a full time job for years as the POET then looks to polish his work , looks at perefection understanding that he is not here forever and his work will stay back and help uplift humanity for thousands of years to come.

POETRYis a Divine medium used by the sages to spread the KNOWLEDGE of the Light of GOD of love.

A metric lenght is used so it can be used as song.

Rhyme is used as it becomes easy to memorize and pass on.

The work of a POET is to think highly but express himself for the common man.

KNWLEDGE leads to understanding which leads to peace and then love which is the basic fabric of this universe or GOD.

Karma

KARMA-is the consequences of your actions.
Every action has a reaction.Every word you speak, every thought you have every deed you do
will have consequences which is called KARMA.
Bottom line do good and good things happen ,do bad and bad things happen.

No human is spared as the cosmos looks at all humans wether white ,brown or black equally.
It doesnt make any difference to the cosmos where you come from ,the colour of your skin
or he is rich or poor you are-all are equal.

Importanace of breath in meditation for Enlightenment

MEDITATION boils down to one pointed concentration between your eyebrows with your eyes closed.

In MEDITATION the SOUL moves at incredible speed through a tunnel to the SUPERSOUL.

With every inhalation the soul moves towards SUPERSOULwhich is the source of all life -the ball of light the source and with every exhalation away from it.

We are dying and coming alive with each breath but are not aware of it.

Your breath is the vehicle for the SOULto merge with the SUPERSOUL or god.

PATANJALI says seven breaths of one pointed concentration gets you ENLIGHTENED.

When you are relaxed in meditation is when you can concentrate the most and then every breath is very very long.

The Buddhists call the last breath the Death point and this is when man must only be thinking of GOD.

Any other thoughts or desires and he will materialise them in order to complete them and so will come back in this life or maybe in another form or shape be reincarnated.-

The soul first implodes into the light and then exlodes out of it and becomes the cosmos absolute bliss with no beginning and no end and also no time-timeless.
