on the “Thought Force” which is common between humanity and Divinity. As a matter of fact, Yoga or Union can be effected between these two only because of this parallel nature that is shared by them. Raja Yoga is not called so because it is something that is practiced by the Kings of yonder years nor is it king amongst the Yogas (which, however, it is) but is such that uses the kingly thing in man i.e. thought force to get back to the Source from which it has taken its origin Viz; Divinity Itself. This Masterly Thing in man is what makes existence possible and even meaningful which is the essential nature of all beings. It is Prana or Pranasya Prana. However, it is not all thought that is entitled to be Pranasya Prana but the thought emanating from the consciousness of a man whose Chitta or Antahkarana comprising Buddhi, Manasand Ahankar is not burdened with the veils of Mal (grossness), Vikshep (Fickleness) and Avarana (Coverings). That such a possibility exists is, what was known from the Vedic Periods, but the simplicity with which our Inner Being can be brought back to its Original State was not Revealed earlier. This system makes it possible for humanity to develop that quality of fraternity which has been eluding for ages despite several Avatars, Messiahs and Prophets by categorically emphasising that it is intrinsic trait of human beings due to the common cosmic parentage. This parentage has been distorted and mythicised by several systems of philosophies and religions. The essence of every religion reflects in the Truth that all human beings have this quality of Original Source in the form of thought organically embedded in us. That makes us children of the same Divine Source and thus we are real spiritual brothers and sisters. Yet, in the name of religion, we have persecuted each other in such a way that puts bestial and Asuric ways to absoluteshame. Let us understand the real purpose of True Religion and turn our attention to spirituality, to Raja Yoga which is the only means both for self-transformation and even Realisation and for balanced existence reflecting happiness in real sense. Reality dawns upon him alone who goes back along with the Nature making himself subtler and subtler.
People of any caste or creed, followers of any religion, whatsoever, who have a craving and thirst for Reality can carry out theirsadhana under the System of Raja Yoga of Sri Ram Chandra. The practices transcend the boundaries of religion or race. This is the only Path towards the Ultimate, the Truth, and the Reality. There is no other way, Swami Vivekananda averred. These practices do not impinge on one’s religion and other social practices required to maintain the cohesion in the society. The religion is used as a stepping-stone towards real spirituality. Rev. Lalaji Maharaj believed in the religious books of all the Dharma and respected all the saints. His motto is to follow the same Dharma in which one is born. (Sva Dharme Nidhanam Shreyah, Para Dharmo Bhayavahaha - Gita). Let us not be a party to create further commotion and
