Tuesday, February 15, 2011 Prayer. Welcome. Today’s subject is The one pointedness! 118th Patanajali Yoga Sutras 3rd chapter 12th verse – Tatha punah shanta uditau tulya pratyayou chitasya ekagrata parinamaha Vivekananda: the modification called one pointedness of the chitta is acquired when the impression which is past or the present Prabhavananda: the mind becomes one pointed when similar thought waves arise without any gap between them Satchitananda : when again the subsiding past … Osho: ekagrata parinam one pointed transformation is the condition of the mind in which the object of the mind …is replaced by exactly similar object. I will give you my understanding and experience on this sutra. In the last few sutras Patanjali was explaining Nirodha parinaama, Samadhi parinaama. Now he is taking us to the next level ekagrata parinaama! Please understand, Patanjali is now talking about an important truth - ekagrata parinaama. one of the important subjects analyzed, researched again & again & again in the spiritual realm is ekagrata parinaama – the one pointedness. 1000s and 1000s of techniques have been evolved, methods have been discovered, practices are created just for this one purpose ekagrata parinaama. this ekagrata parinaama is responsible for your enlightenment and for your extraordinary experiences and the extraordinary powers. Please understand it is ekagrata parinaama which is responsible for awakening of your kundalini shakti which is responsible for your extraordinary spiritual experiences and extraordinary powers you experience & express.

Let me exactly define what is ekagrata parinaama – one pointedness & how it is misunderstood by many of the just intellectual translations. All the regular intellectual translations say that ekagrata parinaama is having the same thought or similar thought in past & present also. I wanted you to know you can never have same or similar thought in the past or the present. NO. if you understand having a similar thought in the past and in the present continuously is one pointedness, you will struggle, struggle to discover that you are a failure. One pointedness means raising your frequency to a level where the flow in you does not change because of the impact of time on you as past, present, future! Some understanding or some truth, some object exists in you in your inner space without getting altered or disturbed by the time passing over it. 

Please understand, if you think one pointedness is something like having one thought in the past and again similar thought in the present this moment, again same kind of thought in the future also, you will miss the sacred secret embedded in this sutra. Please understand, one pointedness is not having same thought last moment, this moment, next moment. NO. one pointedness means raising your frequency such that the object or truth which is in your inner space does not get modified, altered, changed when time passes over your mind. Even the same truth is understood with wrong words for wrong reasons it cannot lead you to the right experience. NO. truth has to be understood with right reason, right words only then it can lead you to right experience to which it can lead you. Truth is the experience which is supposed to lead you to the ultimate space! Having a same thought last moment, this moment, next moment cannot be one pointedness, it can be side effect of one pointedness- ekagrata chitta, ekagrata parinaama. the one pointedness is actually a different frequency altogether. It has nothing do with your mind. It is a different frequency altogether. Where passing of the time does not affect or disturb, modify any of the experience of your inner space. So I translate this word ekagrata chitta - one pointedness as not being touched or disturbed by the time passing over your inner space. So relax on a object or a subject which does not tire you, which does not bring boredom to you, which does not make you feel sad, which does not make you feel tired, which makes you excited for no reason. If the word one pointedness – ekagrata chitta is properly understood, you will see very beautifully your very life can lead you to enlightenment because every moment knowingly or unknowingly, consciously or unconsciously the ekagrata chitta is happening in you, ekagrata chitta is continuing in you. Unfortunately, you always concentrate & experience the space where movements are happening. You do not rest in the space where one pointedness is a constant experience. There is a space in your where the one pointedness is a constant & consistent experience. There is a space in you which does not change by the time passing. Time can go on passing over you, but that space does not alter, modify, change its existence! It is there. Very beautifully Krishna puts in Gita – abhooya maana achala pratishtam – establish like a mountain! Your inner space which is consistent & constant, does not go through any modification by the movement of time – that space is what I call one pointed dimension of you. in your inner space there is a part called nirodha parinaama – restful awareness place, there is a dimension called Samadhi parinaama – enlightened space. There is a dimension called ekagrata chitta - one pointed space, the untouched space. All these 3 space are different names of same experience. You try to be in any of these space, you will achieve what I call the Nithyananda space! Ekagrata parinaama is one more technique Patanjali is giving for the ultimate experience. Basically the truth Patanjali is trying to tell us – the sacred secret from this sutra is catch the dimension which is in you which does not alter, modify, change which is constant & consistent even if any amount of time passes over you. Breeze does not change the hills, it does not move the mountains. Only cyclone may be able to move little. But breeze does not. Same way, time is a breeze on your inner space. There is a part of you which is consistent & constant and cannot be moved by time passing over you. experience that space, catch that space, be in that space. That is what Patanjali means by the word ekagrata parinaama! Let us now enter into the space of ekagrata. Just sit in unclutched mood. Relax with this one truth – what is in me that does not change by the time passing over. Just remember this one truth - what is in me that does not change when time changes? Let me rest in that. Let this one idea rest in you. Close your eyes. Sit in padmasana, vajrasana, samaana mudra. Let your kundalini awaken in you and you experience the ekagrata parinaama – the one pointed inner space which does not change with time passing over! I initiate all people sitting with us around the world into the experience of ekaagrata parinamma – one pointed inner space, one pointed dimension as experienced by Patanjali! Blessings!
