Realisation
Realisation is :
Neither a game of contest with nerves and muscles;
Nor a physical pursuit involving austerity, Penance and mortification, But only the transformation of the Inner Being to its Real Nature.
- Rev. Babuji Maharaj
Though Sri Ram Chandra’s Raja Yoga bears similarity in name with Raja Yoga of Sage Patanjali and other such Yoga Sadhanas, it is qualitatively different and unique in its features as well as nature. This System is Graced not by any accident but as a deliberate Act of the Divine Will to refurbish world balance and order - that has come to such a stage of degeneration that its restoration is a cosmic compulsion lest a Maha Pralaya may ensue quite pre-maturely and well before the ordained completion of this Creative Process. That is the scenario we have built up for ourselves mainly due to actions of our un-regulated, indisciplined and almost un-controlled minds. Recognising the Truth that Human mind is common in nature with the Godly First Mind that was the Divine Instrument responsible for this Material Manifestation as His Lila; Identifying the fact that the Kingly thing in us - the Thought - is the only force that can ensure real Union (Yoga) with the Origin and knowing fully well that human beings in the present state cannot take effective and successful measures for regulating their minds and its activities, the Master has taken upon Himself the task of regulating our minds in His Path of Realisation. Being aware of the futility of most of our earlier efforts to check the non-spiritual tendencies of our mind, Rev. Babuji Maharaj strikes the issue at the root itself. and says that the nature of the Ultimate is Consciousness and is essentially thought substance and advocates regulation of mind with the assistance of this Ultimate psychic energy; the thought. He therefore, stipulates that we must start our spiritual Sadhana with meditation and the nature of the thought for meditation should be such that it is in consonance with the nature of mind itself. Based on this gracious spiritual invention, the Master lays down that we should meditate on the Godly Light in the heart not bothering about the nature of light or luminosity. This Divine Light without luminosity becomes the object of our meditation, when the mind naturally gets attracted thereto and finds smooth and total absorption in it in graduated stages of what is known as Samadhi. Rev. Babuji with His Power of Yogic Transmission through an infallible System of Trainers awakens and accelerates the dormant forces in the abhyasi to action and
