Lorsque la conscience est complètement purifiée de la contamination de l'existence matérielle, grossière et subtile, sans être agitée comme dans les états de travail et de rêve, et lorsque le mental n'est pas dissous comme dans le susupti, le sommeil profond, on arrive à la plate-forme de la transe. Alors, la vision matérielle et les souvenirs de l'esprit, qui manifeste des noms et des formes, sont vaincus. Ce n'est que dans une telle transe que Dieu la Personne Suprême est révélé. Offrons donc nos respectueux hommages à Dieu la Personne Suprême, qui est vue dans cet état transcendantal non contaminé. (Srimad Bhagavatam 6.4.26)

Teneur et Portée par Sa Divine Grâce A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabupada :

Il existe deux stades de réalisation de Dieu. L'une est appelée sujñeyam, ou très facilement comprise (généralement par spéculation mentale), et l'autre est appelée durjñeyam, comprise seulement avec difficulté. La réalisation de Paramatma et de Brahman est considérée comme sujñeyam, mais la réalisation de la Personnalité Suprême de la Divinité est durjñeyam. Comme il est décrit ici, on atteint la réalisation ultime de la Personnalité de Dieu lorsqu'on abandonne les activités du mental - penser, sentir et vouloir - ou, en d'autres termes, lorsque la spéculation mentale cesse. Cette réalisation transcendantale se situe au-dessus de susupti, le sommeil profond. Dans notre stade conditionnel grossier, nous percevons les choses par l'expérience matérielle et le souvenir, et dans le stade subtil, nous percevons le monde dans les rêves. Le processus de vision implique également le souvenir et existe également sous une forme subtile. Au-dessus de l'expérience matérielle et des rêves se trouve susupti, le sommeil profond, et lorsque l'on parvient à la plate-forme entièrement spirituelle, transcendant le sommeil profond, on atteint la transe, visuddha-sattva ou vasudeva-sattva, dans laquelle la Personnalité de Dieu se révèle.

Atah sri-krsna-namadi na bhaved grahyam indriyaih : tant que l'on se trouve dans la dualité, sur la plate-forme sensuelle, grossière ou subtile, la réalisation de la Personnalité originelle de Dieu est impossible. Sevonmukhe hi jihvadau svayam eva sphuraty adah : mais lorsqu'on engage ses sens au service du Seigneur - plus précisément, lorsqu'on engage la langue à chanter le mantra Hare Krsna et à ne goûter que le Krsna prasada dans un esprit de service - Dieu la Personne Suprême se révèle. Ceci est indiqué dans ce verset par le mot suci-sadmane. Suci signifie purifié. Par l'esprit qui consiste à rendre service avec ses sens, l'existence entière devient suci-sadma, la plate-forme de la pureté non contaminée. Daksa offre donc ses respectueux hommages à Dieu la Personne Suprême, qui se révèle sur la plate-forme de suci-sadma. A cet égard, Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura cite la prière suivante du Seigneur Brahma, tirée du Srimad-Bhagavatam (10.14.6) : tathapi bhuman mahimagunasya te viboddhum arhaty amalantar-atmabhih. "Celui dont le cœur est devenu complètement purifié, mon Seigneur, peut comprendre les qualités transcendantales de Ta Seigneurie et peut comprendre la grandeur de Tes activités."

When one’s consciousness is completely purified of the contamination of material existence, gross and subtle, without being agitated as in the working and dreaming states, and when the mind is not dissolved as in suṣupti, deep sleep, one comes to the platform of trance. Then one’s material vision and the memories of the mind, which manifests names and forms, are vanquished. Only in such a trance is the Supreme Personality of Godhead revealed. Thus let us offer our respectful obeisances unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is seen in that uncontaminated, transcendental state. ( Srimad Bhagavatam 6.4.26)

Purport by His Divine Grace A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

There are two stages of God realization. One is called sujñeyam, or very easily understood (generally by mental speculation), and the other is called durjñeyam, understood only with difficulty. Paramātmā realization and Brahman realization are considered sujñeyam, but realization of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is durjñeyam. As described here, one attains the ultimate realization of the Personality of Godhead when one gives up the activities of the mind — thinking, feeling and willing — or, in other words, when mental speculation stops. This transcendental realization is above suṣupti, deep sleep. In our gross conditional stage we perceive things through material experience and remembrance, and in the subtle stage we perceive the world in dreams. The process of vision also involves remembrance and also exists in a subtle form. Above gross experience and dreams is suṣupti, deep sleep, and when one comes to the completely spiritual platform, transcending deep sleep, he attains trance, viśuddha-sattva, or vasudeva-sattva, in which the Personality of Godhead is revealed.

Ataḥ śrī-kṛṣṇa-nāmādi na bhaved grāhyam indriyaiḥ: as long as one is situated in duality, on the sensual platform, gross or subtle, realization of the original Personality of Godhead is impossible. Sevonmukhe hi jihvādau svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ: but when one engages his senses in the service of the Lord — specifically, when one engages the tongue in chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra and tasting only Kṛṣṇa prasāda with a spirit of service — the Supreme Personality of Godhead is revealed. This is indicated in this verse by the word śuci-sadmane. Śuci means purified. By the spirit of rendering service with one’s senses, one’s entire existence becomes śuci-sadma, the platform of uncontaminated purity. Dakṣa therefore offers his respectful obeisances unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is revealed on the platform of śuci-sadma. In this regard Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura quotes the following prayer by Lord Brahmā from the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.14.6): tathāpi bhūman mahimāguṇasya te viboddhum arhaty amalāntar-ātmabhiḥ. “One whose heart has become completely purified, my Lord, can understand the transcendental qualities of Your Lordship and can understand the greatness of Your activities.

Le danger matériel n'est pas destiné aux dévots

Padam padam yad vipadam na tesam :

Dans ce monde matériel, il y a des dangers à chaque pas, mais ils ne sont pas destinés aux dévots qui se sont totalement abandonnés aux pieds pareils-au-lotus du Seigneur.

" Tout comme le conducteur d'un char à bœufs attache une corde à travers les narines de ses taureaux pour les contrôler, Dieu la Personnalité Suprême, lie tous les hommes à travers les cordes de Ses paroles dans les Védas, qui énoncent les noms et activités des differentes catégories de la société humaine ( brahmana, ksatrya, vaisya et sudra). Par peur, les membres de ces ordres adorent tous le Seigneur Suprême en lui offrant des présents selon leurs activités respectives. ( Srimad Bhagavatam 6.3.13)

" Just as the driver of a bullock cart ties rope through the nostrils of his bulls to control them, the Supreme Personality of Godhead binds all men through the ropes of His words in the Védas, wich set forth the names and activities of the distinct orders of human society ( brahmana, ksatrya, vaisya, and sudra). In fear, the members of these orders all worship the Supreme Lord by offering Him présentations according to their respective activities. ( Srimad Bhagavatam 6.3.13)

The inverted tree: Krsna, the Cause of all causes

Life comes from the invisible, from the spiritual world, like a tree draws its strength from its roots.

"...its branches point downwards, its root is upwards, its rays descend on us from above! Rig-Veda

"Its branches are ether, air, fire, water, earth... Maitry-Upanishad

"Its root is above, its branches below - this eternal fig tree. It is he who is luminous. It is God. He is called immortal. On him rest all the worlds, and no one ever overtakes him. Katha-Upanishad (Section VI)

īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ

anādir ādir govindah sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam

Brahma-saṁhitā (BS 5.38)

"Kṛṣṇa, who is known as Govinda, is the supreme controller. He has an eternal, blissful, spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin, for He is the prime cause of all causes."

L'arbre inversé: Krsna, la Cause de toutes les causes

La vie vient de l'invisible, du monde spirituel, tel un arbre puise sa force par ses racines.

« ...c'est vers le bas que se dirigent ses branches, c'est en haut que se trouve sa racine, d'en haut que ses rayons descendent sur nous ! » Rig-Véda

« Ses branches sont l'éther, l'air, le feu, l'eau, la terre... » Maitry-Upanishad

"Sa racine est en haut, ses branches en bas - ce figuier éternel. C'est lui qui est lumineux. C'est Dieu. On l'appelle immortel. Sur lui reposent tous les mondes, et personne ne le dépasse jamais. Katha-Upanishad (section VI)

īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ

anādir ādir govindah sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam

Brahma-saṁhitā (BS 5.38)

"Kṛṣṇa, qui est connu sous le nom de Govinda, est le contrôleur suprême. Il possède un corps éternel, bienheureux et spirituel. Il est l'origine de tout. Il n'a pas d'autre origine, car Il est la cause première de toutes les causes."

Why is the cross at the heart of our lives?

Beyond the religious testimony, it can be found everywhere and in all fields:

- As a signature at the bottom of a document

- To sign a presence or an absence in a listing

- As a bad mark at school as warning or punishment

-As an expression: "to carry one's cross"

- As abscissa and ordinate in geometry

- As addition and multiplication in mathematics

-As a construction line in drawing and architecture

In short, it's only two dimensions that cross each other: the horizontal and the vertical, but why is it so fundamental?

The Srimad Bhagavatam (6.2.12), a Sanskrit text, the jewel of Vedic literature, gives us a very interesting explanation:

In other words, God is present at the very heart of matter. The seal of His order, intelligence and rigor is there and permeates the entire creation with His mathematical DNA as surely as a dye permeates every fiber of a fabric.

This divine proportion is known as the Fibonacci sequence after its author (Leonardo Fibonacci 1175-1250) who was the first to bring to Europe the demonstration of this logical sequence of numbers and angles found everywhere in nature.

More recently in an article in the famous magazine Nature (March 2010), scientists have titled: "Solid state physics: the golden ratio seen in a magnet".

Also the magazine Science on its site theSciencedaily.com, published an article on January 7, 2010:

"the golden ratio discovered in the quantum world: a hidden symmetry observed for the first time in a solid matter":

The article further explains:

"Researchers from the HZB Research Center Berlin (Center for Energy and Matter) in cooperation with colleagues from Oxford and Bristol Universities as well as the Rutherfold Appleton Laboratory in England, have for the first time observed a nano symmetry in solid matter."

This is the first time that a symmetry of any kind has been observed at the nano scale, at the quantum scale.

As a reminder, quantum physics is the study of the basic energy of nature. The study of the energy particles that make up everything like the electron, the muon or the quark.

What was discovered through this study, is that the strings of atoms are aligned together to form a kind of string and this resonates as a frequency or tone, and guess what? the tone has a ratio of 1.618...the golden ratio!

"By rotating the system and artificially introducing more quantum uncertainty, the researchers found that the strings of atoms behaved like a guitar string on a nano scale."

Dr. Radu Coldea of Oxford University (lead author of the paper) explains: "Here the voltage comes from the interaction between the atomic fields which makes them resonate magnetically. We find in these interactions a series of resonating notes. The first two notes show a perfect relationship between them: the ration of their frequencies is 1.618."

There is no chance in the heart of the universe, which bears the imprint of a rigorous, ordered and systemic model, the manifestation of a Directing Intelligence.

God is neither a myth, nor a concept, nor a belief: He is the living Supreme Personal Intelligence, omnipresent at the heart of every atom in this universe.

There are an infinite number of universes within the material cosmic creation...
