Authored by

THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM

māmupetya punarjanma duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam nāpnuvanti mahātmānaḥ saṃsiddhiṃ paramāṃ gatāḥ

After attaining Me, the great souls who are devoted to Me in yoga are never reborn in this world. This world is temporary and full of miseries and they have attained the highest perfection.

Powerful Cognition

After attaining Krishna the great souls who are steepted in yoga never return to this temporay world which is full of miseries becasue they have attained the highest perfection of the state of blissful thoughtlessness

ā-brahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punarāvartinorjuna māmupetya tu kaunteya punarjanma na vidyate

From the highest planet in the material world [brahmaloka] down to the lowest, all are places of misery wherein repeated birth and death take place. One who reaches My abode, O Kaunteya, is never reborn.

Powerful Cognition

If we achieve one glimpse, it's over. That one glimpse acts like a conscious torch, and guides us through these seven layers when we leave the body.

sahasrayuga-paryantam aharyad brahmaṇo viduḥ rātriṃ yugasahasrāntāṃ te'ho-rātravido janāḥ

By human calculation, a thousand ages taken together is the duration of Brahma's one day. His night is just as long

Powerful Cognition

One year for us is one day for the devatas, demigods. For Brahma, a thousand ages are taken as one day. Time is actually not chronological, but psychological. If we can stop the next thought from happening within our inner space, our kṣaṇas can be increased to any extent. It can extend to eternity.
