What is this Mysterious Void?



Swami Vivekananda says:
When I was seated next to master, I found him overcome with sort of emotion. Muttering something to himself, with his eyes fixed on me, he slowly drew near me. I thought he might do something queer as on the previous occasion. But in the twinkling of an eye he placed his right foot on my body. The touch at once gave rise to a novel experience within me. With my eyes open I saw that the walls, and everything in the room, whirled rapidly and vanished into naught, and the whole universe together with my individuality was about to merge in an all-encompassing mysterious void! I was terribly frightened and thought that I was facing death, for the loss of individuality meant nothing short of that. Unable to control myself I cried out, "What is it that you are doing to me! I have my parents at home!" He laughed aloud at this and stroking my chest said, "All right, let it rest now. Everything will come in time!" The wonder of it was that no sooner had he said this than that strange experience of mine vanished. I was myself again and found everything within and without the room as it had been.

All this happened in less time than it takes me to narrate it, but it revolutionized my mind.

Plane of Existence...




What is life?. Life is a plane of existence . Who knows what is there in other plane. Realize that plane and then Life seems as a great utility because within this plane life is routine. But for realizing that plane we need this life, we need this plane.

If you consider this plane as Life on earth, other plane maybe Life on Heaven or Hell or something other, something more logical to our mind. But I stress again that you can realize other planes with the help of this plane only, i.e with this life. If you think that other planes can be realized by death, then you maybe wrong because we have to realize something consciously not unconsciously.

If your conscious gets above all planes then maybe you have the real truth...

What is Supernatural, What is Natural?

Many people report that they have seen something supernatural with a mixture of surprise and pride. Well, they should be proud and surprised all right because, they have just seen something which they never have seen or will never see again(probably) in their life again.

To a Yogi, who can control his inner nature, it is a natural thing. He says with bold voice that 'You too can control nature'. How is it possible? I controlling nature? He must be joking with me!

He declares you can. We ask him 'how?'. He answers 'Control the senses which are controlled by nature and nature will become your slave. Nature will reveal her secrets to you'

A Himalayan Yogi is never tired of this argument because he has realized it himself, he has even shown us something we call 'Supernatural'.
