Sai Mahayantra
What concern to Sai Yanthra, or Sai
Chakra, there was a complete information more than a year ago in
saidevotees_worldnet@yahoogroups.com. The same information is
represented in the site:
http://www.sathyasai.org/devotion/saithree/saithree.htm#tanthra
Excerpts
from this site:
The Sai Yanthra, or Sai Chakra. A
yanthra, or chakra, is a geometrical diagram used like an icon in
meditation or worship of a deity. It is a potentised diagrammatic
inscription of letters/words pertaining to that deity. The Sri Sai
Yanthras shown below were created by Ghandikota V. Subba Rao. They
are actually the same yanthra but in different languages.
Ghandikota V. Subba Rao has
written a little booklet titled "Saithree: Manthra, Yanthra,
Thanthra", which discusses these Gaayathrees. The booklet is
available in the Prashaanthi Books Publications Trust in Prashaanthi
Nilayam. In his booklet "Saithree", Subba Rao explains that this
yanthra came to him at early dawn on Monday, 11 October 1999, and
that Sathya Sai Baba blessed it three times that same afternoon,
after discussing its contents with Subba Rao.The booklet explains
these manthras and their use in detail.
I received the Sai Mahayantra
from a ardent devotee who did a voluntary service in Puttaparthi. He
has been there about 8- 10 times and too he is in India probably
till June.
Sai Mahayantra was sent to the
group because it was different from the ones what were described in
Ghandikota V. Subba Rao booklet titled "Saithree: Manthra, Yanthra,
Thanthra." (This booklet is widely known and directions there have
given put into practice by thousands of devotees. This booklet is as
significant universal teaching towards enlightenment blessed by
Swami. It is as one entity for devotees, who properly know not only
Swami's Teaching but also Vedic wisdom and ancient scriptures).
During the years I try to find
the path to enlightenment through Swami's Teaching. Many materials I
receive from Internet. I compare often Swami's advices and
explanations with latest discoveries of modern science and I have
found there many similarities. For me Swami is a
spiritual-scientific leader of humanity.
Swami has often stressed that
there is nothing wrong in the arena of creation and unity has
represented in infinite diverse forms.
"The Brahma Suuthra is the cosmic
divine thread of love, the cause of all causes of all manifestations.
Here, there is no logic chopping; only the intellectuals are fond of
that, as Bhagavaan Baba says. If you link the Self at the body level
with the cosmos, you shall attain great expansion.
Through love, you multiply your
power to the power of infinity. Such meditations are taught in the
Upanishaths. First, link self with family; then, gradually, with
friends, society, city, country, planet, solar systems, galaxy,
universe (as in Jyothi/Light Meditation). Remember that the power of
the microcosm is multiplied manifold as it links closer and deeper
with the macrocosm.
The Purusha Suuktha of the
Rig-Vedha tells us to link the individual with the cosmic at various
levels, the physical level being the first. Then comes linkage at
the mental level. In the super-conscious state, sages and yogis have
had the vision of Hiranyagarbha (meaning golden self-shining seed
force, from which are generated the universes). Consciousness
persists through all the states of evolution/involution. At the
Hiranyagarbha-Thaijas level is the spiritual heart, where one can
meditate to foster the link-up with the divine cosmic energy.
All these forms relate to
cosmic energies, which the individual links through meditation. This
Hiranyagarbha or Supreme Love principle is the first manifestation
from Parabrahman, the never-changing Supreme Being. As Bhagavaan
Baba states, "I separated Myself from Myself in order to love Myself."
From the Hiranyagarbha emanated the universes and, in the process,
all the components of the cosmos. Macrocosm and microcosm have the
same structure: The living cell (anda), human embryo (pinda), and
cosmos (Brahmanda) are all egg shaped or linga shaped."
To the same truth have reached
the modern physics.
Sai Mahayantra
Yantras as
talismans which have the power of hidden atmic (pranic) energies
and usually are energized by learned purohits, by reciting the
vedic mantra. Ghandikota V. Subba Rao's "Saithree: Manthra,
Yanthra, Thanthra" was energized by Swami's blessing.
For Yantra
meditation is strong instructions. It is a branch of yoga, Yantra
Yoga - the path of union with God thorough geometric visualization.
Very often for Westerns these instructions are hard to follow,
there is a lack of correct knowledge.
In my mail,
mentioned above was written:
"Enjoy the
Divine power of Sai Mahayantra. Swami is the prop for all seekers
on their way to spirituality. All actions proceed from Him, as He
is not separate from entire creation. By statement in Purusha
Sukta: "All the beings form His one foot."
All kinds humans' and not humans' actions on the Earth are
performing only by the mere presence of the Sun, which rises in
the sky without any volition.
Similarly all actions are done by the Lord without any
volition or desire on His part. ..
God assumes any
form, any vibration of energy in the arena of creation imagined by
the spiritual seekers through contemplation and meditation. Sai
Mahayantra is as a source of inspiration for spiritual seekers
blessed by Swami - the living Divine incarnation."
Sai Mahayantra
was sent to the group as a source of inspiration, meditation. It
seems to me that there is absent the special details what needs
special rituals for performing Yantra Yoga. By my opinion, it is
not as powerful as the Sri Sai Yanthras created by Ghandikota V.
Subba Rao are. Therefore, it is possible to observe it, meditate
without knowing exact rituals. I should call it as 'Sai -Sun wheel
of spiritual inspiration' (what shines through Swami's Teaching),
but I cannot change the heading what was written by author.
Explanation
based on my personal vision (I do not deal with occults knowledge) and
on Swami's Teaching. The Divine Power as shines from the heading.
One of the many
my visions
I found that
this beautiful painting with heading "Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai
Spiritual Blessings" is as the Sun in form of His Teaching what
illuminates to all humans beings in the planet. The Sun-Swami is a
yellow circle in center, pink point in yellow center is Swami's
Cosmic Form, what is capable to spread through vibrations (triangles)
into infinite space, absorbes in it and becomes invisible for
common eyes.
Various forms in circles are mostly
pink with several islets and circles in green and lilac. These islets
are pictorially as communication of the ancient wisdom of Vedas
and Great Epics which has bound in His Teaching; they as connect the
present with the past. Swami's Teaching as pink (color of love)
illumination equally spreads over all human society, their
religious, structures, communities (pink or pale pink structures
inside circle) as the whole.
Human society is one entity - as a circle connected with his
past and future through what shines Swami's Message to humanity -
about it as tells green and pale pink circle what encloses with
circle. Through this vision there become as inner joy, feeling of
oneness... Swami's Teaching becomes for me more clear and as directs
me closer to the other human beings, as seeing them through divine
glasses. By such way, thanks to Swami, many problems is available
to solve more easily.
It seems to me that such free inspiration is not fully
correct with Yanthras created by Ghandikota V. Subba Rao. They have
the concrete purpose expressed by many divine signs. But Sai
Mahayantra have no such concrete signs and I can freely be
inspired through it. I have not only one vision. However,
probably they are not interesting for others, as everyone from
very different cultures and religions is a carrier of Divine spark
and has his/her own way and visions towards enlightenment.
Let me add some
Swami's quotations what has given me courage partly to share my
path towards Atmic reality.
"God has neither
birth nor death.
He is eternal; he has no beginning, no end.
He is in the form of Atma.
That is Jnana Jyothi (light of wisdom)." (Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
The Divine Discourse "Dispel the Darkness of Ignorance." 19 Oct
1998, Prashanti Nilayam).
"Yantra, mantra and tantra
all the three are latent in human beings. We are repeating the
mantra 'Soham' 21,600 times a day. 'Soham' means I am God. Human
body is the yantra. Who is responsible for making the heart
beat? Who is responsible for digestion and blood circulation in
the body? The eye, which is not even an inch in size is able to
see the stars, which are millions of miles away. The eardrum,
which is small in size, is able to receive sounds from far off
distances. Television and telephone are within the body. Having
been endowed with such a powerful yantra, the body and the
sacred mantra, Soham, it is a shame if we do not work for the
redemption of our life. Hridaya is the tantra, Soham is the
mantra and body is the yantra.
Nations are many, but earth
is one.
Being are many, but breath is one
Stars are many, but sky is one,
Jewels are many, but gold is one."
(Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
Excerpts from the Divine Discourse "Dispel the Darkness of
Ignorance." 19 Oct 1998, Prashanti Nilayam).
"I am everything,
everywhere, omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent; and so
whatever I will instantly happens. Like the qualities of
truth, love and peace, these are things that generate the
Atmic or Cosmic forces behind the universe.
After all, as I repeatedly say, we all belong to the
same Divinie Principle. The Godliness which is present in
everybody in the form of a little spark exists in me as
the full flame; and it is my mission to develop every
little spark of God in every one to the fullness of the
Divine flame.
Karanjia:
You mean that you are presently raising the
consciousness of mankind to a godlike condition to enable
them to command their own destiny?
Baba:
Exactly. They would become shareholders of my
sankalpa shakti (divine will power, universal energy). I
have to work through them, rouse the in-dwelling God in
them and evolve them to a higher reality in order to
enable them to master the natural laws and forces." (Interview
with Baba (Part Two) by R.K.Karanjia:
