Why wake up early??

I
t has been written in ancient Hindu scriptures, when you wake up in Prata: Kaal (the time of the morning when still there are stars in the sky until the time sun rises), your Devpitra (demigods or demigoddesses, and your ancestors) will be happy with you and bless you with health, wealth and prosperity. That might be pointing at the benefits of waking up early. When you wake up early, you would have clean air and that help to make you healthy and of course, it makes you content and that is how you can have impressions of godliness in your Atma (soul).

It has been described in Shastra

j0f{ sLlt{ d"lt{ nIdL :jf:Yodfo'Zr lj+blt
a|fDx] d'x't]{ ;+hfu|l5ojf k+sh+ oyf

Meaning when you wake up in  Brahmi Muhurta (Prat: Kaala), you will have better health, beauty, wisdom, longer life time and as a whole, it gives you lots of benefits for your prosperity. The wind you get in Brahmi Muhurta is very beneficial for you and that is the reason behind everyone in spiritual path wakes up in Brahmi Muhurta to do his worshiping or sadhana or yoga, unless it has been recommended to do in the night or other times of a day.

Even the Western scholars have agreed on this saying “Early to bed and early to rise that makes a man healthy wealthy and wise”

Usually, the oxygen level in the air early in the morning around like Brahmi Muhurta is very high, i.e. more than 20%, and start depleting because of the man-made pollutants and different other factors. It will be around 5% in the evening and night and that is one of the reasons behind why we become dull in the evening and night. (Source:Yoga Book)

Yaagyawalkya has said,

c?0f ls/0fo'Qmf+ k|frL+ lbzdnf]So :gflblt

Meaning the time called filled with Arun Kiran, is the time before sun rises; the exact time when it is with light yellow colour. And Yaagyawalkya elaborated the reason behind taking bath in that time.

cfo'io df/f]Uo d nf]n'kTo+ b'::jkKggf;Zr oz:q d]wf

Meaning if we take bath in that time, it will help to boost up our beauty, strength, life time, prosperity, power and health ten times.

In a nutshell, we have to wake early in the morning and take bath to become the healthier ones and to achieve everything that anyone could ever want out of her/his life. But it does not mean you started waking up early in the morning and you would get everything, it is rather that habit makes you capable. And the ancient Shastra has fixed the time of Brahma Muhurta between 3:00am to 6:00am.

Glimpse on Mantra’s secrecy



Mantra is a group of sounds and it has four parts (kriyas) in it – thinking over, science, study and feeling. When these four parts unite chanting some words, it gives off a kind of energy and that is called Mantra Shakti (Mantra strength). When we chant a mantra, we are supposed to pronounce it by heart (mann), not by mouth. We need to form a picture of the Guru or gods who you are praying for in our mind and have to pronounce it by heart in a perfect harmony with a strong feeling and then, it flows energy in your mind helping you understand more.

The strength of sounds that comes off when you do chanting in a perfect harmony is a kind of abstract; can’t be seen by our naked eyes but it is very powerful than you have ever imagined that it would be. There was a scientific experiment done on a group of 120 soldiers doing parade in a perfect harmony. It’s been proved that if they crossed the 50 ft bridge doing parade in a perfect harmony, there would be 70% more chances of collapsing the bridge and the energy it would give is almost 240 kilo dynamite. This is the reason those trains crossing the bridge reduce their speeds to control the noise coming off.

Few years back, there was an experiment done in New Jersey on cows. Two groups of cows were kept in separate places and one of them was played with high speed music and another was played nice, melodious and soft music for 10 days and the result was like the one with high speed music has provided 25% less milk and another has provided 10-25% more milk.

In Bishwamitra Sanhita,

वहीं मुखस्य मंत्रस्य [त्तयोया प्रकीर्तित
तएदान्तर्मुखस्य शक्तिय: परि कीर्तित  :

(The thoughts become introvert in the form of mantra and become the strength of Sadhak).

Chanting mantra is an inner process itself and that is why it gives inner purity and that in turn helps to keep your body and soul, as a whole, pure and divine.

In Sharada Tilak,

देवस्य मंत्र रूपस्य समाप्ति जानताम l
[ताचनदिक सर्व व्यर्थ भवति शम्भावी ll

(Mantra is the real form of god).
Whoever chants mantras without having known the real meaning of the mantras would end up with empty hands. S/he fails to get success.

Every one next to you might have different thinking or say, might have different capacities of receiving things or might have better at doing something else than the things you have been doing. So it would be more effective to have more compatible mantras and these things like knowing which one is better for me is beyond our capabilities and that is where you are going to need Sadgurudev because s/he knows better about you than anybody else.

Siddhashram

Among the sadhaks of different cults Siddhashram is famous as “Siddhalok”, “Divyabhumi”, “Gyangunj”, “Shambala” and more. Though any Sadhu, Sanyasi, Yeti, Monk and Yogi might have known ‘Siddhashram’ by any name or various cults might have used different forms of worshiping or sadhana methods as per their own beliefs. But whichever paths or methods you follow, Siddhashram is going to be the ultimate goal for all of them.

Siddhashram is considered to be the heart of the whole universe, foundation of the spiritual consciousness, heart of divinity and the mortification land of great Rishies. Siddhashram is equally scarce to the human beings, and all invisible and visible creatures in the universe. Thus, the Siddhashram is assumed to be the very scarce divine place but it still possible to get into there by achieving some of the things.

These things might be –
1.    At least, you should have mastery over two out of ten Mahavidhyas.
2.    You should follow the life style that has been prescribed by the Vaidik     
        Shastra.
3.    The foremost thing is that you should have a capable Guru.
