Navaratri Festival Days "Noblest Sadhana to Mother Goddess "

Vidya Supreme the Para Vidya

Philosophy gives meaning to religion, it is different from mythology and symbols. Jiva which is deluded should come from this delusion first going through mythology, symbols and finally when it is capable should learn and understand the philosophy.

Navaratri means nine days of Devi puja, during this days every house is converted to sanctum of mother goddess.

The first three days are for mother kali, next three for auspicious Lakshmi, and next three days for knowledgeable sarawathi.

Kali: When we go through the mythological and symbolic explanation of kali as mentioned in puranas which is figurative truths of philosophical ideas mentioned in Upanishads.

To have peace and order in life , the negative thoughts
like desires,passions,lusts,hopes,anger,greed,selfishness,
jealousy,prejudice,hatred must be annihilated from our life’s, we should wear the skulls of these false values in neck by killing these negativeness through a bloody fight. The force of sree rudra must be evoked to throw away these false values. Our self has all the powers within it but we should learn how to invoke it when required, be the master of you.  So the mother terrible is your power which is field of use to eliminate all the negative forces, which is our weakness.

Raja Rajeshwari: We were talking about how to overcome negatives, same time we should concern about how to grow positives’ side by side like how to plant well, cultivate, collect and learn neat healthy values. If we say I will not be dishonest same time we should take oath that I will remain honest at any cost.

Lord is the embodiment of courage, bravery, heroism and leadership, so thinking I am he, nothing will be there to frighten me. By such positive courage we grow and the effort to maintain that growth by keeping self-purification is worshipping the goddess Raja Rajeshwari, Sree Mahalakshmi .the lady of all Aishwarya.

So the first three days having gone through the terrible fight to overcome and eliminate negative tendencies is followed by the constructive effort to develop and maintain good order in life by worshipping Lakshmi. She is the embodiment of Kindness, Love, charity, Devotion, Peace, Tranquility, Honesty, Courage, Faith and desire of moksha. Hence Lakshmi puja is followed after three days of kali puja.

Thus Jiva on his march has purified himself, he is fit to be initiated in to the philosophical side of religion. He is told about Sat-Chit-Ananda ,the state of Shivoham or becoming the lord , jiva will merge to become Maheswara the final walking from the dreams of samsara in to the realization that “I am the all-pervading knowledge in itself” which is beyond time ,space, causality and the experience is “Tatwamasi” the final stage in evolution of man ,there the mortal become immortal (Amritamgamaya) ,death has no meanings (mrityunjaya) ,beyond dharma and adharma ,pleasure and pain ,hot and cold ,success and failure ,love and hatred .Sadhaka comes out from delusions and remember and realizes that : I am He”.

Goddess Saraswati: Sivoham Sivoham means “I and Shiva are one” I in Siva, Siva in me, Siva is jagat but jagat is not Shiva. “I am “means jagat which is something that has no value at all and jagat is not in Shiva. So this knowledge of “I and Shiva are one “ the goddess of this knowledge is Devi mother Saraswati .We will hear peaceful music from musical instrument veena when its strings are tuned with the inner heart strings of the person playing it. Similarly when our inner heart is cultivated with divine wealth resulting music coming out will Influence the people who listen to that music to clean their hearts and tune their hearts strings to play the similar music which rejuvenates other jeevas listening to it.

The Siva bhakta melts in that music coming from within and becomes one with Siva. As the mother goddess saraswati plays her divine song of joy the kalian muhurtha the auspicious moment of wedding between I and Siva is on. The devotee is wed locked to lord of her .After this marriage there is no duty or obligation “I am Siva”. Now “I am He”, “He am I” this is a great victory “Vijayam”.

During these nine days in three stages, even the ignorant is made to go through the right invocations in their required sequences of worship and on the tenth day we realize “I “the samsarin in me, the mortal, who dreamt, wept in dreams, ever stupid, limited, “Ego” is a “LIE”. Only the Lord is: Thou art the lord means you are the lord. Here “thou” denotes intimate version of you, speaking to you only provided the speaker is superior. I Mr.xxxx is laughed at, in a merry procession taken to the burning place and burnt by the very hands of that made it. You yourself in festive joy will light this bon fire of the devil: “I Mr.xxxx”.

The great day of Dassera means Dasa-papa-hara the end of ten sins. The vijaya Dasami day means the day of Sree Paramesvara attains the Supreme Lord. The main ten sins are temptation of ten indriyas , through these impulses come in to mind and become food for mind ,mind thrives and become fat feeding this impulses and throws the terrible shadow of “I Mr.xxxx”. Ego takes birth here identifying one with this ego one become mortal, afraid, bound, weeping in angry and despair. Das-papa-hara is the victory of sensory impulses over mind, mind or doubtless will become off and clarity which is intelligence becomes predominant which results in the end the shadow “I Mr.xxxx”. When mind is off what remains is truth which is Blissful, omnipresent beauty of Supreme Mother Brings about a Dassara in Thy life.

The Sastras declare Nitya-Nirantara God-Consciousness which means nitya or daily nirantara every moment of life.

By wrong knowledge we are doing nitya nirandara deha-smaranam through millions of birth identifying our false shadow as “I Mr.xxxx” keeps on chanting I am I (which is worldly body) instead of Lord the supreme reality.

Replace the Bodily-consciousness with God-consciousness is the WAY for the the goal to be reached where is eternal peace, all the power, pure existence, Light Bliss Knowledge GOD.
