THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM

śrībhagavānuvāca akṣaraṃ brahma paramaṃ svabhāvo'dhyātmamucyate bhūtabhāvodbhava-karo visargaḥ karmasañjñitaḥ

Bhagavān says: The indestructible, transcendental living entity is called Brahman and his eternal nature is called the self. Action pertaining to the development of the material bodies is called karma, or result based activities.

Powerful Cognition

Whatever samskaras or desires we bring, we bring enough energy to live them out and enough power of energy them also.

adhibhūtaṃ kṣaro bhāvaḥ puruṣaś cādhidaivatam adhiyajño'ham evātra dehe dehabhṛtāṃ vara

Physical nature is known to be endlessly changing. The universe is the cosmic form of the supreme Lord, and I am that Lord represented as the super soul, dwelling in the heart of every being that dwells in a body.

Powerful Cognition

Everything, whether living or non-living, is an embodiment of the Supreme Soul.

antakāle ca māmeva smaranmuktvā kalevaram yaḥ prayāti sa madbhāvaṃ yāti nā'styatra saṃśayaḥ

Whoever, at the time of death, quits his body, remembering Me alone, attains My nature immediately. Of this there is no doubt.

Powerful Cognition

Whatever you consider the highest ideal of your whole life, only that comes to your mind when you leave the body.

yaṃ yaṃ vāpi smaranbhāvaṃ tyajatyante kalevaram taṃ taṃ evaiti kaunteya sadā tadbhāvabhāvitaḥ

Whatever state of being one remembers when he quits his body, it is that state one will attain without fail.

Powerful Cognition

Whatever you consider the highest ideal of your whole life, only that comes to your mind when you leave the body.
