Panchadasi-Chapter 1-Verses 59,60 and 61
Hari Aum
Prostrations to my Guru. Prostrations to All.
SLOKA 59:
anaadaav iha sa.nsaare sa.nchitaaH karma koTayaH .
anena vilaya.n yaanti shuddho dharmo vivardhate .. 59..
As a result of this (nirvikalpa) Samadhi millions of results of actions, accumulated in this beginningless world over past and present births, are destroyed, and pure dharma (helpful to the realization of Truth) grows.
SLOKA 60:
dharma megham imaM praahuH samaadhi.n yogavittamaaH .
varshhaty eshha yato dharmaamR^ita dhaaraaH sahasrashaH .. 60..
The experts in Yoga call this Samadhi ‘a rain cloud of Dharma’ because it pours forth countless showers of the bliss of dharma.
SLOKA 61:
amunaa vaasanaa jaale niHsheshhaM pravilaapite .
samuulonmuulite puNya paapaakhye karma sa.nchaye .. 61..
The entire network of desires is fully destroyed and the accumulated actions known as merits and demerits are fully rooted out by this Samadhi.
When a seeker goes to Nirvikalpa Samadhi, he merges into the Self and thus revels in the Bliss of the Self Consciously. When he comes out of the state, the seeker has to put effort towards maintaining that state of Samadhi on other times also. Though there will be momentum from the Bliss of Samadhi propels one towards the Reality, the seeker has to constantly contemplate on the Self. By doing, all the results of actions that were accumulated over many births will reduce. When the seeker constantly tries to remember his real nature as Self, his results of actions that were accumulated over births reduces and thus helps one to move closer to the Self. Thus, through constant remembrance of the Self at all periods, all obstacles vanish and the seeker will be firmly established in the Self and it becomes Sahaja Samadhi. Such a seeker always revels in Bliss of the Self at all times.
The Ultimate Goal of everyone is realizing ones own nature of Self and hence the Ultimate duty of everyone is to have constant contemplation on the Self. Thus when one constantly contemplates on the Self, the ignorance vanishes and hence the seeker always revels in the Bliss of the Self. What always exists is the Self, but it is because of the ignorance it is forgotten. Thus, on constant contemplation on the Self, the ignorance vanishes and the seeker will realize his very nature as the non-dual Self which is of the nature of Bliss.
The duality that is perceived in the world is because of ignorance. Self alone exists and hence the duality that is perceived is only an illusion in the Reality. Because of ignorance of ones own nature, the objects of the world seems different from ones own Self and hence one gets the desire to possess the object and enjoy the object. The person does action to satisfy his desire and enjoys the results of his actions. Some results of action come immediately and some results will even take births to come. So the person goes from birth to birth in enjoying the results of the action. The only solution to get rid of the cycle of Birth and Death is realization of ones own nature of the Self. When a seeker has constant contemplation on the Self, the ignorance vanishes. When the ignorance vanishes, the seeker will realize his own nature as the Self and will always revel in the Bliss of the Self. A person who revels in the Self, will see the all objects of the world as ones own Self and hence there will be no object different from ones own Self and hence no desires as well. When the ignorance vanishes by constant contemplation on the Reality, all desires vanish, all actions vanish and thus the person will only revel in the Bliss of the Self. There will be no results of actions as well either good results or bad results to such a person. In Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the seeker merges into the Self, so in that state there is no duality but only Bliss of the Self. When that state of Samadhi is tried to maintain at other times also by constant contemplation on the reality, it becomes sahajam. Thus, the seeker always remains as the Self and always revels in the Bliss. To experience the results of the action there should be an experiencer, but when a seeker has constant contemplation on the Self thus establishes firmly in the Self, the experiencer vanishes, Self alone exists. Thus to a seeker who constantly contemplates on the Self at all times, the ignorance vanishes, all desires vanishes, all actions vanishes and all the results of the actions done previously also vanishes.
