A Short Biography of Shree Swami Samarth 201
_________________________________________________________________________________________
‘Rajyog’ has five different modes –
“Pipeelika mode, Kapi mode, Meena mode, Shambhavi mode and
Vihangam mode”.
Pipeelika (Ant) Mode, where the aspirant attains accomplishment starting from
the very base organic circle, crosses each circle after than until he reaches the
thousandth circle, just like an ant.
Kapi (Monkey) Mode is where the aspirant attains accomplishment jumping like
a monkey from one organic circle to another, until he reaches the Thousandth circle.
Meena (Fish) Mode is where the person who attains accomplishment, sees an
ocean filled with knowledge of self and that person filled with joy sinks into that sea of
self-knowledge. In this condition, the living being absorbs into the essence of Supreme
Spirit along with the knowledge of self.
In Shambhavi (Hemp) Mode, accomplishment is easily performed based on the
principle of ‘Soham’, a feeling that “I am that Supreme Spirit”. The natural and
continuous accomplishment of ‘Soham’ comes along with breathing techniques. This
accomplishment is also called as ‘Ajapajap’. With the kind mercy of a Sadguru, the
person who repeats ‘Soham Soham’ accomplishes the liberation from personal existence
and gets absorbed in divine substance, with the realisation that He is the Soul.
In the Vihangam Mode (Bird), the person who attains accomplishment flies like a
bird and in a moment reaches the Supreme Soul. He gets absorbed in the essence of
Supreme Spirit without any delay.
This path can be achieved only with the kind blessings of a Sadguru. If anyone
tries to practice by reading books without the blessings of a Sadguru that person can
loose their mental balance. One should not advise an immature person to these modes.
If a person is immature because of the lack of accomplishment, prostration of strength
takes place and that person becomes wicked. If the accomplishment takes place in a
proper manner, the person who accomplishes attains the knowledge which itself is a
clear proof of the success.
Basically, this path leads to the worship of the attribute-less, but to achieve
success in that path one has to worship a deity having attributes and form. Only
through this worship can one attain the attribute-less Supreme Soul. There is always
oneness in the natural state of self as well as that of the Supreme Soul. The names may
be different but the result is the same. The final accomplishment of an individual self is
always to get absorbed into the universal self, the Supreme Soul. Only a great Sadguru
can bless his disciple and take him beyond this worldly illusion by granting him the
divine sight and accomplishment of the individual self, getting absorbed into the all
pervaded universal self, the Supreme Soul.
