Meditation techniques (ध्यान तंत्र): VBT 12 (विज्ञान भैरव तंत्र १२)

Every month I will be sharing one technique of meditation. There will be original Sanskrut text, and English / Marathi commentary on the technique. I expect reader should not take it as just a piece of information but practice the technique that suits him/her for at least one month to further the spiritual quest.

| These 112 meditation techniques are the ultimate source for self realization | 

विज्ञान भैरव तंत्र    

Vidnyan Bhairav Tantra

श्री देव्युवाच
श्रुतं देव मया सर्वं रुद्रयामलसम्भवम् |
त्रिकभेदमशेषेण सारात्सारविभागशः ||

अद्यपि न निवृत्तो मे संशय: परमेश्वर |
किं रुपं तत्वतो देव शब्दराशिकलामयम् ||

किं वा नवात्मभेदेन भैरवे भैरवाकृतौ |
त्रिशिरोभेदभिन्नं वा किं वा शक्तित्रयात्मकम् ||

नादबिन्दुमयं वापि किं चंद्रार्धनिरोधिका: |
चक्रारुढमनच्कं वा किं वा शक्तिस्वरुपकम् ||

परापराया: सकलम् अपरायाश्च वा पुनः |
पराया यदि तद्वत्स्यात् परत्वं तद्विरुध्यते ||

नहि वर्ण विभेदेन देहभेदेन वा भवेत् |
परत्वंनिष्कलत्वेनसकलत्वे न तदभवेत् ||

प्रसादं कुरु मे नाथ नि:शेषं छिन्धि संशयम् |


भैरव उवाच
साधु साधु त्वया पृष्टं तन्त्रसारमिदं प्रिये |

गूहनीयतमं भद्रे तथापि कथयामि ते |
यत्किञ्चित्सकलं रुपं भैरवस्य प्रकीर्तितम् ||

देवीने विचारले...

हे शिवा! तुझे खरे स्वरुप काय आहे?

हे अचंबित करणारे जगत काय आहे?

बीजाचे मूलतत्व काय आहे?

संसाररुपी चक्राच्या केंद्रस्थानी काय आहे?

नामरुपांच्या पलिकडे काय आहे?

नामरुपातीत अमृतत्वाची प्राप्ती शक्य आहे का?

कृपया माझे शंकानिरसन करा...


शिवाने उत्तरादाखल ११२ ध्यानतंत्रे सांगितली. ज्ञात-अज्ञात विश्वातील सर्व पंथसंप्रदाय,ज्ञानमार्ग यातील एक अथवा अधिक तंत्र पद्धतीद्वारा उत्पन्न झाले. भूतवर्तमान तसेच भविष्य काळातील तत्त्ववेत्तेप्रेषित यातील एक अथवा अधिक तंत्रपद्धतीचे फलस्वरुप आहेत.

 Devi Asks:

O Shiva, what is your reality?
What is this wonder-filled universe?
What constitutes seed?
Who centres the universal wheel?
What is this life beyond form pervading forms?
How may we enter it full, above space and time, names and descriptions?
Let my doubts be cleared!


Now Shiva replies and describes 112 meditation techniques.  All the religions of the world, all the seers of the world, have reached the peak through some technique or other, and all those techniques will be in these one hundred and twelve techniques.

तंत्र १२

मध्यनाडी मध्यसंस्था बिससूत्राभरुपया |
ध्यातान्तर्व्योमया देव्या तया देवः प्रकाशते ||
One should meditate on the inner space of the medial nadi situated in the central axis of the body, which is as slender as a fibre of the lotus stem and then by the grace of Devi, the divine is revealed.

Body-mindlessness is weightlessness…
(Sushumna dharana) 
Weight is basic to all that is matter. Our identification with body gives us weight. This is hypnosis that I am body. Dehypnotize yourself to experience your true nature which is weightless. Consciousness has no weight of its own. In happy, blissful moments you feel less weight than in sad moments because you forget the body. In deep meditation you can forget your body completely. The identification with body is broken and you can levitate along with body because body is very small as compared to totality to which you belong to. Once you know the weightless force, you become master of gravity. In siddhasan least area is affected by gravitation, standing even less but it is not possible to stand still for long. Our evolution as bipedal animal freed us partially from gravitational pull and responsible for development brain. With straight spine less and less gravitation affects you. Meditate in siddhasan with straight spine first beyond body and then beyond mind to achieve weightlessness.

शरीर व मनरहित अवस्थेत वजनरहित आत्मतत्वाची अनुभूती...
शरीर व मनाशी असलेल्या एकत्वामुळे वजनातीत आत्मतत्वाचे विस्मरण. गुरुत्वीय बलाचा परिणाम केवळ शरीरावर. शरीराच्या विस्मरणातून वजनरहित अवस्थेची अनुभूती. उत्कट आनंदावस्थेत ही जाणीव शक्य. सिद्धासनात शरीरावर किमान गुरुत्वीय बलाचा प्रभाव. त्याद्वारा प्रथम शरीररहीत आणी नंतर मनरहीत अवस्थेची प्राप्ती शक्य. वजनरहीत आत्मतत्त्वाच्या अनुभूतीतून गुरुत्वीय बलाच्या विरुद्ध सदेह संचार शक्य.
