Pranam to Parampoojya Parameshwar Sadguru Swami Anilji Maharaj
Shatpanchashika Stotra… 14
(Based on the discourse in Hindi by Parampoojya Swami Anilji Maharaj)
Nityam bramadivabhati mayabhramvijrumbhitam l Jakachchakram yathaaalatchakram bhrantadrusheriha ll20ll
When Flambeau is revolved in circular path then the fire itself is appears as the whole circle due to illusion. Likewise the world created due to illusion of Maya is appearing to be revolving in circular fashion.
“Vidyotate natmavidya yabattavchchidambare l Vividham bhati vishvam khe gandharvanagaram yatha ll21ll”
Saraswati Maharaj is saying that till various types of universes keep appearing in chidakash, sparkling of the Glow of Atmvidya, Self Realisation does not take place. Maharaj says that all such universes are magical illusions like Gandharva nagar keeps on appearing in different, different forms, shapes and dimensions in the sky.
(Swamiji tells about Gandharva nagar :
The description of Gandharva nagar is given in Epic Mahabharat. In Adiparva chapter of Mahabharat it is stated that Arjun had sighted Gandharva nagar in Northern region of Himalayas. To Arjun, Gandharva nagar some times appeared falling below earth, some times seen steadily in the sky, some times taking a curvilinear motion, some times appear to be sinking in the water. Very volatile and temporary vision)
Swamiji further explains what is Chidakash.
Swamiji says
- Bhutakash : Akash or Space, one among Panchamahabhoot (Five mahabhootas : Akash, Vayu (Gaseous), Agni (Fire), Jala (Water), Prithvi (Earth)) is Bhutakash. Empty space in the Nature – Universe is Bhutakash.
- Chittakash : The space in mind to think over the various subject is Chittakash. Bhutakash is included in this.
- Chidakash : The Space of consciousness, pervading Chittakash, all pervading Space of Dhnyan.
(When all the illusions gets dissolved and doubts completely disappear with the Blessings of Sadguru then only Glow of Atmadhnyan – Self Realisation would shine in Chidakash)
