MEDITATION IS THE LAST LUXURY

CLASS BY G.SRINIVAS REDDY

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

We expect well-educated, cultivated people to respond in a measured and reasonable way when faced with difficulties, because, we believe, they are used to thinking. Very often the reverse is true, however, and the slightest mishap makes them angry, agitated or depressed. It is clear they have studied (although today it is true that any job requires several years of study), but when studying, they never thought to work on their character. And when they find themselves faced with life’s difficulties, neither their education, nor their erudition is of any help to them. The most important thing in life is not to be an engineer, an economist, a doctor or a professor, and so on. The most important is to live. What is the use of these highly educated people strutting about with what they have borrowed from books other people have written? What they should be showing is what they have succeeded in achieving themselves. And if they are incapable of doing so, they should leave aside all the knowledge they have gained from books and go and work at developing strength of character, for this is far more important.

FIRST STEPS TOWARD FREEDOM BY TORKOM SARAYDARIAN

Vanity, ego, illusions, and glamors build a heavy wall around our aura. They hold us back from being our True Self, and prevent us from communicating with others with honesty and integrity. They are like a many-headed hydra that brings with it fears, self-doubt, hurt and pain into any conversation and into any relationship. These vices prevent our true, human soul from expressing itself in our life and, they complicate our life further by adding more vices such as hatred and competition! 

If they are not dismantled and cleared out of our lives, every part of our relationships will suffer.

It is extremely difficult, if not unlikely, that an egotistical, vain person, full of glamors and illusions could even hope to build right human relationship anywhere in his or her life. It is an important part of spiritual transformation to learn about these four vipers and learn how and why to dismantle them.

These four “vipers” form the cornerstones of  self-deception. Clearing them from your life is the basic and most important part of your self transformation process.

 

OMRAAM MIKHAEL AIVANHOV

Each sign of the Zodiac is a stage in the slow transformation of nature during a full year.  When the sun enters the sign of Aries, it is the beginning of spring, the gushing forth of  energies, and the bursting open of buds. This surge continues in Taurus and Gemini  with the blossoming of leaves and flowers. Summer starts with the constellation of  Cancer when the seed is formed; then the fruit ripens (constellation of Leo). Once it is  ripened, we harvest it (constellation of Virgo). Then comes autumn (signs of Libra,  Scorpio and Sagittarius), and we harvest the last fruits, the leaves fall, and vegetation  dies and decomposes. At last comes winter (signs of Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces), as  the seed is buried in the ground where it dies and is absorbed into the earth. But it is  from this death that new seeds will be born, emerge and blossom anew. This is how the  cycle of vegetation teaches us the secrets of life, death and resurrection.

THE FLAME OF BEAUTY CULTURE, LOVE, JOY BY TORKOM SARAYDARIAN

The highest achievement of the human soul is the moment of identification with the principle of Beauty. The purpose of life, on any level, is the expression of beauty. We are created to manifest beauty. We can find true art by observing the effect it has on people. True beauty is not bound by any nation or historical time; it is timeless.

Culture is the translation and interpretation of beauty. The labor to share beauty is culture.

Love is not a sentiment. It is not an emotional attitude. It is the most powerful energy, the core of which is within the human being. If you release this energy, you are able to live a harmonious life.

Happiness is an effect of outer conditions. It changes when conditions change. But joy never changes; it increases with time. It grows despite conditions. It is not based on outer conditions but it has an inner fountain!

This book is an offering of truest art and beauty. It is destined to create striving toward improvement and perfection in every person who reads it and studies it.

EARTHQUAKES & DISASTERS BY ORKOM SARAYDARIAN

What does the Ageless Wisdom say about the causes of earthquakes and various natural disasters?

We know that human negligence is causing much of today's "natural" disasters, but is there a more subtle reason beyond the physical negligence?

Could it be that our physical actions are only an outer manifestation of our emotional and mental attitudes? Could we be triggering the hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis all around the world by the very thoughtforms that we are creating daily? Could all the ugliness, pain and suffering, revenge and killing cause damage to the benevolent energies that can protect us? Could the earth be reacting to all the negativity and violence in our daily lives?

If we can easily prove that human negligence causes disasters, then how much more do we need to do to stretch our minds and understanding to see that behind the actions or lack of actions, stand a huge set of belief systems, thought processes, emotional desires, national and religious hatreds, and separatisms.These form the underlying forces that shape the subtle aspects of our world.

All these and more are discussed in this lively and challenging booklet. 

• Explains what causes earthquakes and disasters.
• Provides the esoteric reason behind many of today's natural calamities.
• Gives encouragement and hope by showing how these crises can be handled and even avoided.

A useful booklet to help us find ways to understand the real, underlying causes of the damage we are doing to our environment and how we can change the dangerous conditions we are now finding ourselves in.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

What is a war? It is an imbalance on the scales of life. Yes, humans and countries have put all their grudges, ambitions and greed on one tray of these scales, but nothing to counterbalance them on the other tray. There then comes a time when the disproportion is such that violence prevails. It is impossible to prevent misunderstandings and hostilities between individuals and nations, but why must the negative tray of the scales tilt to the point where war would break out? Once hostilities are triggered, ministers, ambassadors and heads of states meet and bring the problem before the UN and so on, but by then it’s a bit late. Initiatic Science teaches that before a war is declared on the physical plane, it has already been declared up above on the psychic plane; those waging war on each other are the egregores and the collective beings of the countries at war. People are now aware of the power of thought and feelings. There is an accumulation of so many misunderstandings and grudges on the psychic plane that, one day, actions are bound to follow. Actions are always the consequence of thoughts and feelings. »

MEDITATION

Reading will not help you if there is no meditation

Reading will not help you if there is no meditation. Reading is like eating without digestion. You eat and eat and say, "I am a professor." You collected everything but you are not assimilating. Assimilation means that you use the materials that you are putting in your stomach and make them help you to grow.

Look what is happening. Everybody is preaching Jesus Christ, Buddha, Krishna, Moses, but our humanity is sinking into darkness, hatred, revenge, destruction, horror. Why? It is because they have it all in their mental stomach. Their Bible is in their mind but there is no digestion.

Through meditation you become intelligent because your mind is now opening into the Mind of the Universe.


-Torkom Saraydarian
Meditation vol.2 

BOOK

Meditation is a daily practice for many people, and used by clinical psychologists, counsellors, and therapists to heal themselves and their clients. This book provides a psychological appraisal of meditation, summarizing 15 years of sustained psychological research in the area, and signposting new research and theoretical directions.

BOOK

we assume that more choice means better options and greater satisfaction. But beware of excessive choice: choice overload can make you question the decisions you make before you even make them, it can set you up for unrealistically high expectations, and it can make you blame yourself for any and all failures. In the long run, this can lead to decision-making paralysis. And in a culture that tells us that there is no excuse for falling short of perfection when your options are limitless, too much choice can lead to clinical depression.

SOLAR ANGEL VOL1 & VOL2 BY TORKOM SARAYDARIAN

The Solar Angel is the guide, mentor, and guardian of each human being. It is also called the Guardian Angel, the Soul, or the Inner Guide. Solar Angels came to humanity 18 million years ago to help human beings to develop their mental substance and to enable them to evolve into greater levels of understanding and expansion. The Solar Angel is in constant meditation in order to awaken us and teach us to respond to its guidance and education.

Daily we are guided and helped to understand the meaning and purpose of life.The Solar Angel helps us evolve and develop as human souls. It gives to us of its substance and, with its help, we build the Chalice, the Temple of Solomon, the Temple not built by hands. This is the repository of the human soul that contains the lifetimes of expressions of pure love, pure light, and pure spiritual will. Our soul comes into full expression as a result of the work of the Solar Angel.

This volume is a collection of writings from Torkom about the Solar Angel. Never before has the esoteric field been able to see such depth of knowledge and explanation of the differences between the Solar Angel and the human soul.

"The story of the Solar Angel comes from far antiquity. In almost all nations and religions, we read about angels -- guardian Angels and angels that shine like the Sun; angels that protect, lead, and inspire people in all fields."

The Second Volume of Solar Angel contains the collection of writings about the Soul not published in the First Volume. 

When the first volume of The Solar Angel was released in 1990, it was received with deep appreciation from the spiritual community. Torkom Saraydarian's explanations about the Solar Angel have helped clarify and expand our understanding of this most intimate Guide.

Torkom continued to write about the Solar Angel and publish various insights in many books after 1990. He also wrote articles about the Solar Angel that had not yet been published. This present collection, The Solar Angel, Volume 2, represents these published and unpublished writings of Torkom Saraydarian's legacy since 1990.

The Solar Angel is called by many names - Guardian Angel, Nirvani, Soul, Inner Guide, God's representative, the Conscience, and so on. All nations and religions speak of Guardian Angels. They protect us, guide us, inspire us, and teach us throughout our lifetimes, until we are able to stand on our own two feet. It is important to know that the Solar Angel is in continuous meditation, daily seeking contact with the human soul.

ONE HUNDRED NAMES OF GOD BY TORKOM SARAYDARIAN

The names of God are words of power. Say the names, repeat them, meditate on them and you will feel the power in the word. God is calling us to know Him, to understand Him, to see our own divine origin, to see Him in each of us.

Each religious discipline talks about the names of the Creator. Torkom found over 5000 names of God in his researches and studies. Each name brings one facet of the majesty of the Creation into our little containers. Names of God expand us and uplift us.

"How profound it is to be occupied with the names of God! We say that God has names, but in reality He has no name. How can we define something or give a name to what is nameless and is so great and so big, so deep and so vast that our names cannot fit him."

"His names are words of power. They are challenges for us. They are an invitation for us to develop the attributes of God, to cultivate the essence of the names in our life."

"Yet each name of God opens a new window within our consciousness to look at Infinity, hear the call of Infinity, and respond to Infinity through striving toward perfection."

Whenever you feel you are disconnected from the meaning of life, open a page in this book, read it, and close your eyes and think about the words.

Torkom writes this book as a symphony; there is musicality in the descriptions and in the delivery of the Teaching. This book has a high-powered energy that has to be felt and experienced.

Use this book as a meditative study of God and His many attributes and wonder at the Creation!

This book is sure to soothe, uplift, and heal you!

COSMIC QUESTIONS 3 VOL SET BY TORKOM SARAYDARIAN

In Volume 1, Torkom discusses the chemistry of space and the chemistry of creation. He maps and explains how the interrelationship of the parts to the whole create chemistry and cause change in life. He states: “The whole existence and its activities are the result of astrochemistry.” What we do, feel, and think creates chemistry. All of space is acting, feeling, thinking and chemistry is created. Life moves and changes due to chemical elements that we and all of Nature produce.

In Volume 2, Torkom discusses the existence of the Cosmic Magnet, the Core of our Galaxy, which “permeates all creation through Its field of energy; through Its energy threads It leads each atom, form, planet, and galaxy toward the Purpose of Life.” The Cosmic Magnet pulls us toward our true essence, wholeness. In this volume, Torkom builds a basis for the deep sense of responsibility that we must cultivate for all of life. 

In Volume 3, Torkom brings us to the inevitable conditions that result from the push and pull of the Cosmic Magnet and the interaction of humanity with these Cosmic forces. What then? Shocks, shifts, crises, tests, challenges are created in our life. Far from being sources of unending misery, these shocks, shifts, and resultant crises show us the clear path that life takes. How we handle these crises and tests determines the personal and global culture and civilization that we all share.

Through these magnificent and challenging topics, Torkom takes us step by step into the realm of Cosmic questions and makes these immense subjects personally meaningful. He shows us a clear path that we will need to choose, as individuals and as humanity, if we want to live, thrive, grow, and understand national, international, and global conditions. He gives us warnings and instructions on how we can deal with these challenges and still maintain our joy, our health, our balance, and our human compassion.
