When the karmayogi removes his connection with his sensory organs and mind, then only he reaches the stability of wisdom.
To attain stability of wisdom a karmayogi removes the connection of his mind with five sensory organs which are his doorway to the material world. Eye, ear, tongue, nose and skin. By revoking this connection he discovers his connection with God. which is always within him but is covered by his materialistic pleasures.

Curiously Yoga aims to make use of these senses in various Dharanas( concentration methods. Karmayoga is the most difficult of pathas.
ReplyDeleteyes.. and thats what it has been said in geeta too.. they are the best.
ReplyDeleteits lot easy to try others esp mine :) bhaktiyog.
Bhakthi depends on ecstacy in its truest sense. You will have to achieve complete surrender to the Ishta Devta( your fav. deity)to merge with it. To some it can be trouble some, the moment we think of the devta we starts to show all the signs of a lover before his/her beloved forgetting everything else. I have seen such souls. In the Auto Biography of a Yogi ( Its just like a Novel, no stilted English like that of the Pundits) there is the description of one such yogi.
ReplyDeleteYour path is difficult too dear Trish if you go in depth.
i have heard about bhaktiyogis since i childhood.. chaitanya, ramkrishna, kamalakant, ramprasad.. well i think i can easily surrender myself to God but you know.. i cant do it because the old cat of your story will eat me up and wont even burp..
ReplyDeleteeven god has said to have faith on God but have fear of thieves.. :)
You are too subtle for me there dear Trisha :)
ReplyDeleteThat cat was the globalization and market oriented culture propagated by the vested interests. It eats the third world up piece by piece by talking them into it, even aggressively. It eats all us up.
The last part went straight over my poor head.
ok.. i meant the big bad wolves that prowl around the meek lambs, looking for a chance to gobble them up.. :)
