Self-reliant- Spiritual India

In 1942, India declared that- Britishers! Quit India! During the Indo-Pak war in 1965, appealing the countrymen, popular Prime Minister of India Shri Lal Bahadur Shashtri declared – Jai Jawan! Jai Kisan!
Addressing the nation from rampart of the Red Fort during the global tragedy in 2020, popular Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi gave message of self-reliant India and paved the way from ‘vocal for local’ to ‘global’. A journey of becoming self-reliant began in the fields like industry, trade, agriculture, science, defence sectors, etc. This country used to lead the world. This country was a golden bird. Maharshi Dayanand termed it as parasmani. The poor country turned prosper by touching it. But at the same time, India is famous for its spiritual property due to which this country was known as world teacher. Gautam, Kanad, Kapil, Patanjali, Valmiki and Vyas took birth here. Spirituality was deep rooted in this country. The foreign travelers used to bow down the soil of his country which gave birth to Jagadguru Shankaracharya, Vardhaman Mahavir, Mahatma Gautam Buddha and Maharshi Dayanand, etc. The egoist people can deviate from their path in search of  prosperity, prestige, respect, etc but spiritual people can’t deviate from their path. Self-realization, self-thought and self-evaluation give inspiration for moving on the welfare path. The spiritual word emanates from the soul which is the next destination of journey of our life sadhana. Sanskrit Scholar has rightly said—

Ito na kinchit tato na kinchit
Yato yato yami tato ne kinchidatmavabodhadadhikam na kinchit l

Self-realization is the ultimate goal of life. Aatmadeepo bhava also means it. In the great scripture Mahabharata, Maharshi Vedvyas says—

Aatma nahi sanyamapunyatirtha, satyodaka shilatatadayormi l
Tatrabhishakam kuru panduputr na varina shudhyati chantaratma ll

The people can get rid of entire diseases by taking bath in the river filled with water and wave like patience, divinity, truth, kind, etc. The water can’t purify inner soil. Maharaja Janak, Maharshi Yagyavalkya, etc gave message of self-realization.
It’s happy coincidence that the work is being done to make country self-reliant in every walk of life with commitment of self-reliant India. At the same time, country’s popular Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and Yogrishi Pujya Swami Ramdev Jee Maharaj are doing tremendous work to realize the dream of making spiritual-reliant India by declaring June 21 as International Yog Day. Yog Vidya which eradicates all the disorders of the body is the unique heritage of India. Maharshi Patanjali proposed Ashtang Yog contains all the elements of spiritualism. Vedic culture or spirituality is based on strong yam-niyam. The people can attain spiritualism through satisfaction, tap, self-study, worshiping, non-violence, truth, celibacy, aprigrah, etc. Pranayam, dharana, meditation, samadhi, etc are spiritual property.
This spiritual-property is also called panchkosh sadhana. For example, the people can attain the ultimate goal through first step, similarly, the body can be filled with immense energy by providing proper and aesthetic diet to the body, observing proper and daily routine, pouring in aesthetic thoughts, boosting it through pranayama, controlling the mind through sadhana, exercise and vairagya, etc. Moving ahead on the path of welfare, the people can attain the ultimate goal through chanting gayatri jap, omkar, meditation, etc. Defining this stage, it has been said—

Pranavo dhanuh sharo hvatma brahma tallakshyamuchyate l
Apramatten veddhvyam sharavattanmayo bhavet ll Upanishad

The seeker reaches to the body through this step. This provides immense bliss to the seeker. The soul gets assimilated with the God. The scholar has defined it beautifully—
Na tatra suryo bhati na chandratarakam nema vidyutah kutoayamagnihl
Tameva bhantamanubhati sarvam, tasya bhasa sarvamidam bibhati ll Upanishad
The people can get rid of all the diseases, sorrows, disorders, etc by reaching here.  

‘bhidyate hridayagranthishichhadyante sarva sanshayah l
Khiyante chasya karmani tasmin drishte paravarell Upanishad

Glands of the heart become dormant after realizing the Sachhidanand Kand God. Entire misconceptions get eradicated. The human being moves around in the cycle of birth and death. In the Shrimadbhadgita, it has been termed as brahmi condition. The people who attain it can get rid of disease, greed, etc.

Those who move on this path of welfare attain the ultimate goal. It’s the acme of life. This spiritual study has been defined in Ved, Brahman Scriptures, Aranyak, Upnishad, Shrimadbhagvadgita, Sankhya, Yog, etc. Rishi, saints, etc attained ultimate goal by realizing micro condition of spiritualism in the morning. It’s a great matter. This is the ultimate asset of India. It will bring prosperity, happiness, peace, bliss, affection, etc in the entire world. We had lost this glory. The great personalities of 21st century, Shri Narendra Modi and Pujya Yogrishi Swami Ramdev Jee Maharaj have presented great form of Indian spiritual study to the world. The people can get rid of entire problems by adopting it. Let’s remember our divine past and provide message of world brotherhood and affection to the entire world.
