The idea of this post is to introduce the various stages of self realization. We can explain self realization in many ways. But it is of no use to get into explanation without knowing about the fundamental idea. Hence I am sharing out the points that I have understood.
The self realization is possible only with the blessings and support of the guru. Bringing the mind into concentration and keeping it continuously is a continuous action.
If the mind is kept concentrated, then many clarifications arise and settles in a point. Then the disturbances are avoided. At that point we get the clarifications about temporary things which we thought are permanent. The Siththars consider this stage where we get separated from ourselves and visualize us as a spectator.
Patanjali in his book “Patanjali yogam” has clearly explained about self realization and its stages. Based on this only most of them have shared their experiences of self realization to us through their books. Even today most of them are doing this concept of self realization as a business. The self realization cannot be attained by paying money or by going to classes.
This self realization can be attained only by regular experience. Making our-self one by uniting with one and becoming one is a miracle.
With this I complete this series temporarily. In other situation I shall attempt to write about it again.
In the next post I shall catch up with other topic.
