Shoranur

Dated 4th January, 1961

My dear Varadachari,

Master's Work

In Shoranpur there is practically no work for me and I think I have wasted my time. Of course, I have been of some help to Mr. Moothadath's late father but no one does realise it. His mother is so weak that her case cannot be taken up in any way. After thinking deeply over it for two days I discovered a method for her. I put into her heart a divine spark so that it may develop when it finds a congenial atmosphere. But though by my Master's Grace I undertake such tremendous tasks for others, still none is going to believe it, and I am regarded merely as a chip of wood added to the furnace to stimulate fire. My Master is of opinion that no value at all or even any importance is attached to all such super-normal services. I may therefore be frank, though with some hesitation, to say that nobody has yet been able to understand me properly. I am reminded of Lord Krishna's predictions intercommuned to me some time ago, that the time has not yet come for the people to have a full understanding of your existence though it shall definitely come but only when you have given up the material form.

....

Kundalini

Your kundalini has, without doubt been aroused and you feel signs of it at the time. Even now you are having subtle changes which require deeper study of the condition in comparison with the previous one. But that may not tally with the depositions of modern commentators on kundalini who had not their own kundalini awakened at all. The vibrations have ceased and that is the result of my doing since they were a bit troublesome to you and I told you about it there. Yet they exist in a latent form and can be roused at any moment when needed.

Faith

You failed to ask me questions when I was there. You can do so now. I think you do not understand what you actually are, because the doubt is there, though I am perfectly satisfied. I though apparently take a mass of stone, with no learning, never doubt what I say or write about. It is only because of any faith in my Master.

7th School

Regarding the book Sahaj Marg and Modern Psychology you may start with it after a month. It is possible that you may not at present feel convinced of its being a seventh school but ultimately it shall for sure come out to be so. All that we have to look to is that there should be no clash of ideas put forth in this connection. We must therefore rely on God and begin contributing our share to it. Thinking will always be correct if the idea that Dr. K.C. Varadachari is writing, is removed therefrom. For your query about the special personality I had told you the method as given in the book. If you do it please inform me of the results.

Respects to Appaji and love to children.

Yours,

Ram Chandra

My dear revered and beloved Gurudev.

Oneness with Master

Please accept the humble pranams by thy body. I have no separate existence from Thee and I am living in Thee wholly. Master this is the latest development. I had prayed to thee to grant me that approach by which I shall go beyond the seeing as object and seeing as subject. Thou hast indeed taken me into Thee. So I believe I know not what is my condition apart from Thee. Such a deep love is welling within me for thee so much so I am unable to feel the separation. Therefore Master I pray to Thee to keep me always within Thee and enfold me both within and without.

Longing for Laya

Now I constantly wish to be absorbed in Thee without any intermission for to be separate means almost disintegration for me. That may be the cause of fear and so on. Therefore I have nothing more to do than to have Thee as my Self and existence always without any break. Let my laya in Thee be complete and total. I wish to contemplate on Thy Divine form(astral form) and physical presence always and I pray that Thou wilt grant me this humble prayer.

....

I am very anxious to have thy presence always with me and this longing is growing. Somehow Master I do not know when it will be my privilege to do personal service to Thee as a servant and instrument and body more intimately than at present.

7th Darshana

Master Divine! I was speaking on Shri Krishna as a philosopher on Saturday 7th January. Though I was to have read my paper as the light failed I had to speak ex tempore. I spoke something other than what I wrote. I spoke that Shri Krishna was the founder of the Seventh Darsana-being the founder of the Pancaratra School of Philosophy in India. It then passed my mind about the correctness of the Master's statement that the Sahaj Marg will be the seventh darsana. Master though Thou sayest that Thou canst speak Thou sayest that Thou hast not read vastly, Thy knowledge and presentation of Reality goes far that Thou art verily of the stature of Shri Krishna Himself. This is what I have been discovering these days and this makes me feel that I am not always with Thee.

I remember Thou wert telling me when thou were here that it is making delay for transforming me fully as I am at a distance and not nearby so that changes can be undertaken immediately. I now feel the excruciatingness of this delay in transformation and divinisation. I do not know how this can be changed and overcome. I pray to Thee fervently to lead me onwards to that state of inseperation and laya in Thee so that neither distance nor time will delay the attainment.

My loving pranams and Surrender are to Thee,

Yours,

My dear Varadachari,

Dreams

Before this I had dropped you a letter on the 14th January. One point of your previous letter remained unreplied which I now reply herein. You had written to me that you saw fearful dreams some times ago. The cause is not spiritual. During sleep if the hand comes over the chest one has fearful dreams. If it comes over the heart then horrible dreams are there. This is a matter of experience. When I was at Tirupati this time I saw a frightful dream. When I awoke I found my hand at the heart. Sufis also say that sometimes an abhyasi feels fear for no cause. That means divine fear has developed in him which will cause no wrong. It seems to be right and I have had that condition. One or two sensitive abhyasis also wrote to me the same. But I differ from Sufis in one respect. One of the Sufis says that this is the last stage of development. According to my experience it comes in the beginning after some advancement and it may come after stepping into a bit higher region. I felt this thing after two years of abhyas. The sensitive abhyasis who experience this are those who had practised for two or three years. This I write to you merely for the sake of your knowledge.

....

7th Darshana

I hope I shall, somehow, be able to give your talk on 'Ten Commandments' to the press. So the book is being scrutinised as you wanted and the suggestions will be sent to you. This book and the Efficacy of Raja Yoga will help us in having it as the 7th Darshan. Of course other books will also be helpful. When you begin writing Sahaj Marg and modern Psychology I shall suggest that if a correct thought does not agree with the modern psychology you may write it as my original thought. There is a note to this effect, which is a thought from the above. It says, 'You will depict a new line of philosophy.'

For the present world, vast reading of books is essential which I do not know why I do not do. It may be due to nothing but my laziness. Regarding practical knowledge, as my Master says, he has transferred all to me and any question regarding the practicality, I trust, I can answer by His Grace. He showed me everything practically and what I have written in Efficacy of Raja Yoga, I have seen all these things. But nobody values the spirit but only the handsome body.

A few days back before Utsava I transmitted to you for three days devoting two minutes each day. On the third day, my Master stopped me because it seemed to him more than required. Please write to me your feelings or condition so that I may proceed further in my work. The higher sort of training is very easy. A few minutes are sufficient but good deal of thinking and also the capacity and reading are necessary. For your guidance I may say that when you are not able to decide as to what or how much is needed for the capacity then think that what is in accordance with his capacity or as much as the Master wants him to have, is going to him. There is some reference to it in the book on the methods of training also.

Since you want me to tell you what I am doing in your case I say that I want to convert all your knowledge into divine and that is why I asked you to attempt writing the book after a month. My Master has controlled what I did in three days. I only want the reply of it by return of post if possible. I am thinking of some means to be with you for this work though I remain there in the room all the time. I think you remember that I wrote to you some time ago that you do not require any meditation now, though then I was waiting for my Master's orders in this connection. Now my Master also is of the same opinion and says that you need not meditate as you used to do, but devote that part of the time also to the work of the Mission.

My dear Varadachari,

No Danger in Transmission

I have already given my finding about Mr. S.Vedantam. It is his wrong impression that transmission could do him harm. It sometimes cures the disease. What I am trying that he maybe free from the disease at least to the extent that he may go on well with his abhyas. Really I did not transmit him except a little in the end of each sitting to soothe the heart and invigorate the nerves only while I was at Madras. Now please advise me if I proceed with the work. I think his consultation will also be necessary in this respect. I assure you that I get guidance in all my work according to the capacity and the condition of the taught. So there can be no danger. Of course, I developed a habit that sometimes in a few cases I give a little more than their capacities but in that case my Master keeps guard over them. I am not taking time in your case as I have taken in my own one. The same is the case with all others who are following you with faith. Regarding your complaint I would say that it is not due to the awakening of the kundalini. It has taken its right course. You have said something about it. Please recall. I relaxed the check a little. You will become all right, think a little that it is going out of the body in the form of vapour or smoke as you do in the evening meditation. .....

Karana Sharira

I received your article about the 'astral body.' I feel that karan sharir is at the head of the astral body discharging its effect to the astral body. If one wants to end their bhogam very soon he can draw the impressions from it to the astral one. In this way time for bhogam will be reduced and the intensity will develop. What we do, we try to fry the impressions as much as possible. Further study in this matter reveals that it is the field for the play of that centre (karana sharir). So it is something separate but connected with it.

Love to children and respect to Appaji.

My dear Varadachari,

Central Region Anubhava

Received your affectionate letters dated 26th January and 27th January, 1961. Your anubhava about the central region is so far correct that you are going nearer to the centre. You are being pushed towards the third ring of light by your own effort, that is devotion but you require a push from this poor being. What I want that you may not remain dependent on me for your approach. If I find that you are taking unnecessary time I will push you on. So please leave this work on me. I have taken up your case again for the work which I have recently started. Since it is a new type of work which you so kindly have given it to me, I want that whenever you feel anything worth communicating please write to me. I am sure everything will go well because I do things very mildly and cautiously. How I eagerly wish that I may get the people who may encourage me to give my humble services after a very high approach. May I ask you if you are feeling the subtle changes in your body.

Comments on Basanth Experience

Dr. Kupuswamy observed correctly that the grace was felt flowing down the crown of the head. On this occasion the power of the Master becomes active to give us direct satsangh also. The feeling of 21st January 1961 that he observed the mass of light instead of the preceptor is correct. He is really very sensitive and he observed rightly. As far as I remember, though not correctly, that I left something accidentally to be entered in all of you in the form of grey cloud.

....

Shri Raghavendra Rao and saint Kasturi wrote to me in their letters simultaneously that when I am before them even then they long for my darshan. This is a peculiar state, of course admirable.

"So sunk am I in quest of Thee,

I be in Thine, yet search for Thee".

My dear Varadachari,

Do you not believe if I say that your whole system is being divinised but there is one difficulty with me for this sort of training, which my Master knows, only that I have to make the capacity to grasp this highest teachings that is why the delay. To tell you the truth I have devoted nearly forty hours in a month in your making for one and half year, and still give you some time. I have devoted so much time not because you were lacking in any way in spiritual capacity but I wanted to finish your work soon for my work.

Condition

At the higher stages it becomes almost impossible to express the condition, still you have done, saying, "I find quite a dry region." This hint is sufficient for me. If I translate your condition I will find you like a man in an arid desert where life is extinct, squall of winds have been ceased and heat of the sun is not intolerable.

I assure you that you can divinise the system of others in a second provided you are absorbed in me at that time, but the practice will be dangerous for the abhyasi if the power behind you are in conjunction with you as I see. The divinisation is not at all difficult, but to bring a man to that standard is a difficult job, so it takes time. When I am at Tirupati I am charmed with your affection and I forget many things which I want to do, so please make a note somewhere to remind me when I am there, to apprise you of the condition of Gita and Veda so that you may feel yourself how far you have travelled to that direction. Will you please try to see whether I am not with and within you as you want and this is my work to study whether I am not keeping you within me.

Condition of Hanuman

You feel that you are nothing at all. It was the condition of Hanumanji; but please try to gather yourself at one point and see, if the force is there. I myself feel the same.

Love to children. Respect to Appaji.

My dear Varadachari,

Doubts and Diffidences

It is very surprising that doubts and diffidences are still dominating. I do not know whether you recall them or they themselves enter into you. It is of course certain at your stage that if you create doubt and contemplate over it, it will surely get power. Please make it as a habit at such circumstances to divert your attention towards the Real Being. I am also praying that you may get over your difficulties. If I say that in such a case my vision is wrong then I will have to admit that I am abusing my inner condition. I find life in every word you write to me. You wrote to Shri Ishwar Sahai during the marriage of his daughter a few sentences of prayer which I read thrice, because they were discharging a kind of spiritual force. The same thing I find in your letter. Now allow me to throw light on your inner condition as I observe.

Liquidation

The life is dead and the death is meeting, its own death. I do not find better words than these to express your condition. As you advance, you will feel yourself quite barren and liquidated. The power will work when you intend to do a certain thing.

Condition

You are in the second ring of light of the central region. I wanted that you may cross it by your own effort. When I find that your effort fails it becomes my duty to push you further. So by the time the letter reaches you will have glad tidings to enter into the third ring.

With best wishes,

Yours affectionately,

My dear revered Gurudev,

I am greatly happy to receive the Master's admonition about my doubts and diffidence. I do not know whether it is not due to the long lasting habits of dependence on the sense and sensate reasoning that are too much with me as a teacher of philosophy. Further it is also due to my being absorbed in the experience of my images and memories and anxieties. I pray that they may all be withdrawn. I shall follow the advice to divert my attention to The Real Being-the Master.

Gratitude

I am writing off and on and shall send them to Thee who art in fact making me write. I pray that Thy will lead me to the Real and the Absolute condition. I am grateful to Thee for having admitted me to the second ring of splendour and that I will be admitted to the third. Thy love knows no limits.

I however realise the force of 'doubt'. I pray that doubt may never cross my mind when I am doing thy work.

Your letter has been a balm to me and threw me into calm and quiet state of love. Therefore I pray to the Master to write to me almost every week so that both of us will feel more and more with Thee all through these weeks of anxiety and work. I do not know Master whether all this throws such a burden on thee of the earthly work. But I beg pardon and pray for thy grace so that I may be more and more part and parcel of thy Divine Nature and Being.

Removal of Doubt

Anyway I have completely discovered that I have lot of doubt in me which requires to be overcome. May I pray to the Master that this incubus of doubt be once and for all removed root and branch? I am almost certain that that must be the cause of my slow progress in the crossing of the rings. My mental condition is in the present condition of restlessness even now-may be the old samskaras and memories are crowding on me. It will be clear that my present worries will begin to haunt but I am trying to transcend them by not contemplating them. In any case I am afraid that I am giving thee lot of work. ....

I am deeply grateful that it has pleased God to attend upon my needs though I hardly know why I deserve all this kindness. But I am thy body and thou are myself-Let thy infinite realisation flow into me purifying me and divinising me as a perfect instrument of God for ever and ever.

With loving pranams,

My dear revered Gurudev,

Divinization

I was wondering as to what divinising meant. It came to my thought that it was possible in two ways: (i) by substituting the divine organs left by those who have gone beyond the need for using them, in the place of the human and other organs including the mind, manas etc. or (ii) changing the very nature of the organs themselves as they are by infusion or breaking up their components and rearranging them or by inverting them. The ancient Upanishads and later thinkers have entertained the first view which perhaps is a kind of spiritual surgery, whereas the other view is that of persons who have the gradual theory, and who want to be nearer man. Whatever it is I believe at one stage the spiritual surgery may be necessary for it is very much the distinct break away from any human element. I shall be very happy to know what you think about this.

My paper may have reached you by now. I shall be most happy to have your comments on the same. Somehow I find myself feeling dead and mostly seeking absorption in thee.

Chit Lake

I am now working at the Chit-lake for most of the advanced abhyasis. Transmitting on that point I am trying to study the condition of it in each. I found that in Somesvara Sarma it was beautiful but not that which I saw in thee. The greyish points were arranged in a tier and there was also movement from the lower tier to higher tier.

Benumbed State

My whole being is in that peculiar benumbed state mentioned by thee and now it is also experiencing off and on a superb calm, that is of the Divine Master's presence.

Manas

I read thy note with profit. The manas here is comparable to dhi rather than the manas that has become the sensorium-cum-object-consciousness. I shall continue the writing as and when there is found time and inspirational urgency.

System

I am indeed grateful for thy reference to the chit-lake which has begun to attract my attention during both abhyas and training of the others. I am also now clear about the direct path and the peculiar invention of Master in respect of ascent to the point five (5) from the heart or point (1). I am also glad to here about the distinction between the seven rings which again is the discovery of the Master.

Please accept our supremest surrender and love,

My dear revered Gurudev,

I have not been able to write anything at all. The benumbed condition continues and I am wondering when and how I shall be able to fulfill my work for the Mission. I am to say the least utterly thine and even that sometimes I am unconscious of.

Benumbed State

I am supremely aware of the grace of the Samartha Gurudeva in cleaning me thoroughly and I trust that it will help in the crossing of all the rings of splendour at an early date and that I would be in a position to do all that is asked me in the supreme spirit of utter identity.

My dear Varadachari,

I received all your affectionate letters. They are so lovely and charged with life that I like to read them again and again. You are displaying piety, chasteness in all your writings and I am very happy to see all these things. I pray further that your writings and words may become the 'voice of God', the foundation of which is already laid by your own devotion. To tell you the truth I myself too remain restless in giving you further approach.

Third Ring of Splendour

You are, no doubt in the third ring of splendour and how I wish that you may go beyond it but these are very powerful regions and cannot be taken till one gains the power of going further. I can take up just as I have done in case of Appaji but that I do not want in your case because you must have lot of experience and power for the work.

Negation

I wrote to you in my previous letter that you are in benumbed state. Now a few days ago, I have got noted the time, you have begun to rise. I want to explain but the expression fails. Even then if I try I can say that the state of negation is pregnant with freshness. This is not mayavic freshness but something very superior.

My dear Revered Gurudev,

Acceptance

Please accept my humble pranams. I am in receipt of your divine letters. I am thankful indeed that I am assured I am proceeding to the highest state. I can rest assured of it because Thou hast stated it. On all matters it is my duty to abide by thy decision and however much I may not see its significance at present. Devotion I believe means the acceptance of God and Master under all and every circumstance. Both the outrages of fortune and life and the rejoicings proceeds from the One Ultimate Divine, good as well as evil so-called being but mental reactions to the Natural Activity.

We have been keeping indifferent health and however we are carrying on. The satsangh is going on as usual. I am only again and again confronted with the lower mind but I think that it is all Thy will and leave it as that.

....

Sayujya

You have asked me about what is meant by sayujya: which has been translated by Prof. Srinivasacharya is intimate Union. Yuj means to connect: yoke is the English word similar to it.

The word yuja is used in the Mund.Up.3.1.1 and Svet.Up. 4.6 in the context of being with one another of the two birds on the same tree, dva suparna sayuja...: thus the being with God is the meaning of sayujya. How intimate that is the question of experience. Some think, that the being together is as intimate as husband and wife or lovers or friends. Shri Auribindo translates the Mundaka Passage: Two birds beautiful of wing, close companions, cling to one common tree.

Sarupya, Salokya

But in the context of liberation they speak of sarupya (having the same form as that of God), salokya (dwelling in the same world as of joying the same unity with God). The mystic union is said to be so much that one almost becomes one with the Divine developing identity. Aikya bhava or aikya simply is the result. However the word yuj or yujya does not lead up to that meaning at all. Both the individual soul and the Divine Lord who looks on the individual soul's enjoyment of the world fruits remain on the same tree. The word sakhaya of course suggests that they are on the same sakha (branch) but one eats and the other does not eat of the tree's fruits. In realisation both do not eat of the tree's fruits. Perhaps the eating of the Divine being quite different the soul reaches up to that level and kind of eating appropriate to the Divine. The state of sayujya is one that comes only after the others if it is the ultimate state. But if it is the first stage then the sarupya state will be the last, only the word rupa seems to have misled many into thinking that it is lower because of its saguna implications.

Samipya

However one must link oneself with God and enjoy the tree of God-then one becomes nearer and nearer to God (samipya) and begins to see the world of God as God sees it (sub specie eternitatis) and this is salokya and lastly reaches the stage of having the nature (rupa) of God. Since the writers and translators of the ancient texts hardly had these experiences their speculations have led them astray. I do not complain about them but just pass them by.

I do not know whether I have explained this correctly. However the word sayujya is not intimate union, but really a term that intimates the practice of union or yoga connection with God through mind (thought) which leads to spatial, and spiritual nearness and vision and identification of the entire structures of being continuous with God in all His Universal and individual creation.

However Master knows all and I have but put down all that seems to appeal tome alone.

With loving pranams, I remain yours as body,

My dear revered Gurudev,

Distress

Please accept my humble pranams. We are keeping fit as things go. I have been praying for the expansion of our Mission's activities. There seems to be quite a halt in the progress of the Mission. Though we are steady in our practice we have not been able to attract really more liberation-loving souls, obviously they are fewer in number. The clouds of materialism are gathering and the atmosphere is becoming darkened in every way. At Tirupati itself I am feeling the gathering of these clouds in all walks of life and the Mission is to work in and through only a truly few. I am also feeling the weight of this. How long is this to last? Though the Master has stated the work of the Supreme Personality is over and He may well depart there is nothing that I can perceive today in the dynamic reorganization of the world or earth consciousness that even signs the trends towards truer spirituality. The persecution of the good goes on merrily and the adulation of the wicked makes it much worse. Humiliation of course may be the greatest glory-to whom? I am tempted to ask. All are gifts of the Divine revealing the love of God in truest sense and love may be the glory of God and His Grace. Perhaps forgive me these thoughts but they are perhaps thine alone... ...

Concern for abhyasis and Mission

I am praying for the speedier progress of the abhyasis and to be able to enthuse them so that we may be able to do more work of transformation. When will our Mission grow to its fullest stature and perfection? I am praying that we may not shrink to a few individuals alone. May I take this liberty of praying the fullest development of our Mission all over India and the world in the shortest possible time?

My dear Revered and beloved Gurudev,

....

Sayujya

The word sayujya is definitely in meaning 'to be linked up or yoked to' God. It does not mean conformity which is perhaps the meaning of sarupya. I thank you very much for the enlightening exposition of the four terms. My note on sayujya would show that all the states lead up to total or integral being with God. Of course without the same linkage from the very beginning the others cannot be realised. For in yoga the Master links up Himself with the abhyasi and makes it grow into the other conditions of salokya, sarupya and samipya. This very close proximity to God is verily culminated in the union inseparable or linkage inseparable.

I do not know precisely how I could explain my condition. I also am waiting for this sayujya experience in its fullest nature. To me the others do not appeal which are because they are more like siddhis than Being that is perfect in God.

I am placing myself in Thee and I know that I shall be absorbed in Thee sooner or later.

I pray for the entire emancipation of the world from the forces of Darkness and deceit.

I shall try to study the point Thou hast pointed out as the playground of God in my heart which Thou sayest is the point of sayujya developing in me. I offer my humblest love and offering to Thee for this unexampled grace.

My dear Brother,

....

Your life is now considerably transformed. Even in your writings I find the clarity of thought and purity and innocence of expression. Every sentence you write has life in it. I agree with what you have written about your condition. You are now really under the charge of the Divine and It is doing Its work. I cannot even meddle with it; I am only an observer, though as a servant I have sometimes to do some duty for example I found in you that the diffusion of a certain state was being checked by something like heaviness and now the action thereon is going on in the usual way. I really want that all chakras and points of your body may acquire a uniform state but it is the work of the Divine which is going on.

Your anubhava about the point is correct. You have written that you have been taken into a bright cave with a dark interior that began to open up by itself and became bright. The darkness does change into brightness and then brightness into greyish or the dawn colour. The point is no doubt expanding. The effect which it is shedding might have come to your vision as the sahasra circle, like the sphere of light when it has travelled to its extreme limit. I agree with your interpretation of the term sayujya and I shall put the same in the English translation. There is one difficulty with me that sometimes it so happens that I have to dive deep into the depth of my being and there the thing comes like richa. I have a very poor knowledge and vocabulary, so expression becomes difficult.

My dear Varadachari,

Curing a disease

I wrote to you that you can get rid of diabetes by meditation. The process is the same what we do in our daily meditation. Disease is going out of the body in the form of vapour or smoke and auto-suggestions to cure the disease. Of course, there are some other methods also for instance drawing energy from brahmanda mandal for the sun to cure the disease. You wrote to me that you have been feeling that you are absolutely doing nothing at all. It reminded me of nishkam karma given in Gita. This is the stage where this thing is possible. You do not require any meditation now; that has been withdrawn already (vide my previous letters) so you should spend that time in some other work of the Mission (Master's words in the same letter). I am exceedingly happy that you enjoy the excellent state.

State of Godly ungodliness

After crossing all the rings of splendour abhyasi enters into the state (words fail to express it) of Godly ungodliness so to say. I do not find a better word for the expression of this stateless state. At present you enjoy the state as I wrote to you in one of the letters that the death is meeting its own death. Really I am very lucky to see such condition and I pray that all my associates may be drawn to this that when a man enters the ring of splendour the journey is altogether over. Only one begins to absorb potency, which the ring contains of.

My dear Varadachari,

It is really praiseworthy that even during serious troubles you thought of your spiritual approach. May you live long. I think it will not be out of place if I write to you something about your spiritual condition. During this period of troubles the work of God was going on in your system but slow. Now in this week this work is in full swing according to your capacity which He Himself makes. Please observe.

With best wishes,

Yours,

Ram Chandra
