I have this special message for you. Actually it's an appeal to your good nature for universal spiritual goodwill. It has nothing to do with any religion.
We have a pretty decent life in
north America. We are at the pinnacle of material development and everyone
feels so preoccupied with their own interests. When I travel around the
country delivering lectures and giving lessons, people tell me that they
are no longer connecting with each other e.g. among family members, teachers-students, between friends. The level of satisfaction and fulfilment in whatever we do
is not what it used to be. People don't feel inspired to do noble work.
RigVeda is a Vedic book of physics; the hymns sing songs of the first appearance of primordial matter in what eventually became the universe. The scriptural knowledge formed the basis of many ancient belief systems.
They feel frustrated and helpless. But they want to do something about it.
Please read the Creation Hymn from RigVeda posted below on this page.
It's a simple but poignant reminder of the beginning of the beginning of the universe. The same Veda also tells us that life on earth evolves and moves in cycles.
AT THE PRESENT TIME WE ARE MARCHING TOWARDS THE END OF THIS PERIOD CALLED "KALI YUG" or the age of selfishness.
This 'yug' is going to be followed by "SATYA YUG" or the age of truth and fulfilment.
If we all pull together and meditate on the glorious light that dawns with the "SATYA YUG", believe me, we can usher it in. Like magic, peoples' thinking and lives will change. We'll start back to becoming the "ARYA" people. ARYA simply means 'a person with an infallible character'.
Remember, every human being is a born supergenious.
So please help the universal cause by giving your ten minutes every first day of the week. When you get up in the morning, please sit up facing north, fill your heart with goodwill and forgiveness and meditate on it and pray that "SATYA YUG" arrive tomorrow. You can do this anywhere, even in bed.
What's important is that you give your commitment to do this without fail. It is charitable work with its own reward. Beautiful things will start to happen in your life.
So please! Pretty please!! Make a commitment to yourself? Do tell all your friends to do it too.
May God shower glorious light on your path.

Creation Hymn
"1. There was neither manifested nor unmanifested then. Then there was no dust and there was no sky beyond that. What was covering, where was whose shelter? What was the deep, inexplicable sound?
2. There was neither death nor immortality then. There was no differentiation between night and day. Only he was there by his own will without air. There was nothing beyond him.
3. Darkness was hidden by darkness in the beginning, with no undifferentiated fluid (Salila). Whatever was, was covered in emptiness. That one was born from heat.
4. Earlier desire arose in him, then from his mind first seed was born. Wise men by reasoning found the manifested bonded to the unmanifested.
5. Its rays spread oblique, down and up. He became the begetter. He became great by his own will below and beyond.
6. Who knows? Who will tell here from where and why this creation was born, because the gods were born after the moment of creation. Therefore who knows from whom this was born.
7. From whom this creation was born, he upholds this or not. Its lord who resides in the remotest sky, may be he knows or may be even he does not."
Creation Hymn - Rgveda 10.129
"Earlier there was absolutely nothing. There was no heaven, no earth and no atmosphere."
Taittirya Brahaman 2.2.9.1
