All our struggles and hopes and fears and joys, what will they lead to? We will all end in death. On other and practical grounds we see that the theory of eternal progression is untenable, for destruction is the goal of everything earthly.

It is as certain as can be, that every bit of hatred that goes out of the heart of man comes back to him full force nothing can stop it, and every impulse of love comes back to him. If you love, that love will come back to you, completing the circuit. Therefore do not hate anybody, because that force, that hatred, which comes out from you, must, in the long run, come back to you. So with all forces in nature they must come back to the source.

Although extraneous to the subject, I may remark that this idea explains the ethical theory that you must not hate, and must love, because, just as in the case of electricity, or any other force, the modern theory is that the power leaves the dynamo and completes the circle back to the dynamo. Therefore, this idea that the destiny of man is progression ever forward and forward, and never stopping, is absurd. A straight line, infinitely projected, must end in a circle. If you could take up a stone, and project it into space, and then live long enough, that stone would come back exactly to your hand. This statement, though, apparently, very nice, is also absurd, because there is no such thing as motion in a straight line.Įvery motion is in a circle. To live in a world where all is good and no evil is what Sanskrit logicians call a “dream in the air.” Another theory in modern times has been presented by several schools, that man’s destiny is to go on always improving, always struggling towards, and never reaching, the goal. There cannot be good without evil, or evil without good. This theory, on the face of it, is absurd and puerile, because it cannot be.

Logically stated this means that man’s goal is the world this world carried a stage higher, and with elimination of its evils is the state they call heaven. There was an old solution that man after death remained the same, that all his good sides, minus his evil sides, remained forever. First of all we want to inquire into other solutions of life. Because in the absolute there cannot be any quality they imagine that it must be insensate, dull, and lifeless, that only this life can be enjoyed, and therefore we must cling to it. Thinkers of great calibre are of the opinion that we are manifested specimens of undifferentiated being, and this differentiated state is higher than the absolute. This being granted, the question is, which is better, the absolute or this state? There are not wanting people who think that this manifested state is the highest state of man. It seems the consensus of opinion of the great minds of the world, and it has been nearly demonstrated by researchers into physical nature, that we are the outcome and manifestation of an absolute condition, back of our present relative condition, and are going forward, to return again to that absolute. 'Then the Seer (Self) abides in His own nature' - We become Soul Infused beings.BEFORE going into the Yoga Aphorisms I will try to discuss one great question, upon which the whole theory of religion rests, for the Yogis. My teacher Swami Satchitananda Yogiraj of Swami Sivananda of Rishikesh, said, 'The ego is just a mass of energy blockages' E-Go! yogas citta vritti nirodha - Yogas from Yuj, the yoke - the connection between you and your Soul - Enlightenment comes from the removal of energy blockages. Samyama - the Ninth limb of Yoga - is the ultimate technique for the removal of energy blockages creating Dharma Mega Samadhi and Nirbija (No Energy Blockage) Samadhi or Enlightenment. Viveka or Dis-crime-ination is the process of purification of Trauma and Pain from Energy Blockages or Vrittis, Bijas, Samskaras. Here are real descriptions of the sanskrit terms by one who meditates using these, 'Complete Instructions on Enlightenment'. Author taught by Swami Satchitananda and Zen Master Hogen Daido Yamahata. 'Complete Instructions on Enlightenment' There are many commentaries on The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali but most are by people with no real experience of meditation or enlightenment.
