English Translation (Blog Format): “Words are few, but the emotions and meanings they carry are infinite.”This eternal truth forms the foundation of the Gaagar Maa Saagar series. Even the smallest visual can hold boundless spiritual wisdom. Episode 59 highlights the core duties every Shravak (layman) and Shravika (laywoman) in the Jain tradition should observe. For the past 58 days, I have humbly attempted to present Jain philosophy in a scientific and accessible manner. If these efforts have touched your hearts, the credit goes entirely to the spiritual masters—Acharyas, Upadhyayas, and learned monks—whose teachings and insights have paved the way. Let us now delve into the golden rules of Jain living, which, when followed diligently, can elevate our lives both materially and spiritually. Golden Rules for Every Jain 1. No Wastage of Time / No Laziness 2. Renounce All Addictions 3. Six Daily Duties These are the spiritual essentials of a Jain’s day-to-day life: 4. Daily Responsibilities A Jain should: 5. Pakshik (Fortnightly) Observances 6. Chaturmas (Monsoon Period) Duties 7. Samvatsari (Annual Reflection) Conclusion A Jain householder must align their life through five types of schedules: Each moment should be filled with awareness, spiritual practice, compassion, and non-attachment. By faithfully following these duties, one can truly make the most of the human birth and pave the way to liberation through self-discipline and purity. Let the soul rise above material desires and walk the sacred path of Jain Dharma — for it is the truest expression of living with purpose.

Words may be few in this world, but their meanings are infinite.This video is only 15 minutes long, but the knowledge and joy it holds is eternal and limitless. We are starting the series “Gagar Ma Sagar” – meaning “an ocean in a pot.” Who is an Arya? One who stays away from sin, walks on the path of righteousness, is non-violent, has compassion, and follows a civilized way of living — such a person is called an Arya. Discipline is the identity of Arya Dharma. This is the 57th episode of Arya Dharma. What was the world like before Jain Dharma? Before Jain Dharma began, there was no culture or civilization in the world. People lived like animals — eating raw food, walking without clothes, lacking both ethics and discipline. It was Lord Rishabhdev who gave civilization its first shape. According to scriptures, the first Tirthankara, Rishabhdev, was the one who: In short, he taught us how to live like humans. Rishabhdev in the Vedas Even the Vedas mention Lord Rishabhdev.A verse states:“ऋषभं चार्थम् ऋषभं च धर्मम्”Meaning: Rishabh is the essence of truth and righteousness. He was not just the first King (Chakravarti) of this world, but also the first Sadhu (ascetic) and the first Tirthankara of this time cycle. Human life before Rishabhdev In the initial eras, people were born as siblings in pairs.They had no idea what being human truly meant. There was no passion, no marriage, no desires. They lived simply and naturally. Nature provided everything to them. But over time, this divine phase ended, and a more effort-based life began.This new world was called Karmabhumi — where effort and action are needed for survival. People started facing problems: That’s when Lord Rishabhdev took birth to guide humanity. What Rishabhdev Taught the World Rishabhdev gave humanity: He taught his sons and daughters — like Bharat, Bahubali, Brahmi, and Sundari — and through them, he educated society. Before this, people didn’t even know the alphabet.It was Brahmi, his daughter, who was taught the alphabet first.Sundari learned mathematics. Thus, Lord Rishabhdev made this world civilized — laying the foundation of Arya Dharma. What is Arya Dharma? The way of cultured, ethical, disciplined living — taught by Rishabhdev before he took renunciation — is known as Arya Dharma. Only after establishing a stable and civilized society did he renounce the world, achieve Keval Gyan (infinite knowledge), and preach Jain Dharma. So first came Arya Dharma (the way to live),Then came Jain Dharma (the way to be liberated). 🧘‍♀️ Conclusion Lord Rishabhdev was the first King, the first Monk, the first Teacher, and the first Tirthankara. He gave this world not only the path to liberation but also the foundation of human civilization. His teachings remind us that: 👉 To walk on the path of Jain Dharma, we must first understand and follow Arya Dharma — a life of discipline, ethics, and compassion.👉 Only a stable society can produce strong spiritual seekers. Let us remember:Lord Rishabhdev didn’t just show us how to renounce the world —He first taught us how to live in it.

Words may be few, but their meaning can reflect the infinite truth of the universe. A small visual can carry deep wisdom and invoke profound emotions. This is the beauty of spiritual expression — like an ocean in a drop. In this Episode 57 of “Arya Dharma”, we explore the ancient beginnings of civilization and the divine touch of Lord Rishabhdev — the first Tirthankara, revered not only in Jain scriptures but also honored in the Vedas. Who is Arya?“Aarta duriyati iti Arya” – the one who stays away from sin, avoids violence, is filled with compassion, and upholds humanity is known as Arya. Discipline and cultured living are the signs of Arya Dharma. The Origin of CivilizationThe scriptures declare that Rishabhdev was the first to bring wisdom and knowledge to this Earth. He was not just a king — the first Chakravarti (universal monarch) — but also the first Sadhu (monk) and Tirthankara of the present time cycle. It is said in Vedic literature:“Prithvinatham aadimam nishparigraham” — the original spiritual master of this Earth was Rishabhdev. Before Jain Dharma, before even social structure existed, the world was innocent — humans were born in pairs as siblings and lived without crime, passion, or desire. Only near the end of life did they attain awareness of being human. This was the era of innocence — nature provided everything without effort. But as the Earth transitioned from the Akarmabhumi (a land where no effort is required) to Karmabhumi (a land where effort is essential), people had to learn to live, work, and survive. And so came Rishabhdev — the pioneer of civilization. Rishabhdev’s Teachings and Contributions Rishabhdev didn’t just teach how to live, but how to live righteously — with body, mind, family, and society in harmony. He was a king, a teacher, a sage, and ultimately, a Kevaljnani (one with absolute knowledge). His coronation itself was considered a divine event — a Kalyaanak (auspicious occasion) — a rarity even among Tirthankaras. He taught people how to produce food, how to construct shelter, how to wear clothes — and ultimately, how to live with dignity and self-control. Where earlier people were like nature-driven beings, Rishabhdev showed how to be cultured and civilized — this was the foundation of Arya Dharma. The Transition to Jain DharmaOnly after society had matured, and human emotions and intellect could be guided, did Rishabhdev renounce his kingdom, attain Kevaljnan, and formally establish Jain Dharma. But the seeds of spiritual life — discipline, compassion, and ethics — had already been sown through Arya Dharma. Conclusion Lord Rishabhdev was not only the first Tirthankara but the father of civilization itself. He structured human life through Arya Dharma — teaching how to live with discipline, culture, and harmony with others. Later, he gifted the world Jain Dharma, a path of liberation. In our lives today, we must follow two parallel paths: Both are necessary for a balanced, meaningful existence. Rishabhdev’s legacy is the bridge between civilization and liberation — a guide for all ages.

In this boundless universe governed by infinite emotions and finite words, this episode of “Gagar Ma Sagar” explores the deeply profound and fearsome dimension of Adho Lok—the Lower World or Nether Realms. We often use the terms “heaven” and “hell” casually in everyday life. When we’re happy, we call it a taste of heaven; when we suffer, we say we’re experiencing hell. But in Jain cosmology, these are not metaphors. They are real, distinct realms—each with vivid characteristics and intense experiences. What Is Adho Lok? “Adho” means “lower”—Adho Lok is the lower region of the universe. Just as there exists Devlok (heaven), where celestial beings reside in eternal daylight, the Narak (hell) is its exact opposite—completely engulfed in absolute darkness. The word Narak is derived from “Arka” in Sanskrit, meaning Sun. Na-Arka means “absence of Sun.” In this region, not even a glimmer of light can penetrate. The darkness is so intense that one might not see even their own hand—so terrifying that when the hand suddenly appears again, even one’s own form may frighten them. Structure of the Universe The universe has a layered structure. In the center is the “Trasa Nadi,” a vertical axis where beings like humans reside. The layers below it are darker and more negative. As you go higher, the color tones become lighter and purer, representing more virtuous souls. The lowest is Krishna Leshya (black aura), indicating the most harmful karmic disposition, and the highest is Shukla Leshya (pure white), representing spiritually elevated souls like the Siddhas. Leshyas are the spiritual auras of souls. In Adho Lok, all leshyas are negative, reflecting the vicious thoughts and actions of the souls residing there. The darkness and suffering in Narak mirror the intensity of their karmic negativity. The Seven Levels of Hell There are seven Naraks (hells), each existing below the Rajlok layers: Each of these realms becomes progressively more terrifying and painful. Unimaginable Suffering The beings in Narak undergo ten kinds of environmental torments (Kshetra Vedana): Even if they ask for relief, they receive more pain—whether from the karmic keepers (Paramadhami) or fellow inmates. Narak is a karmic reflection: whatever emotions and actions you put into the world, you receive their intensified reflection here. Birth and Existence in Narak Unlike human birth through a mother’s womb, Naraki beings are born in Kumbhis—large, pot-shaped iron vessels. Their birth itself is a form of punishment. Their bodies are melted, pierced with spears, and reformed endlessly. This form is called Vaikriya Sharir—a unique karmic body that can be broken and reassembled, made to suffer endlessly without dying. Why Do Souls Go to Narak? According to Jain scriptures such as the Uttaradhyayan Sutra and Shayagag Sutra, certain actions inevitably lead to Narak: These karmas don’t require action alone—even intent or desire can bind a soul to such realms. Conclusion The seven Naraks are not mythological fears—they are deeply detailed, philosophically grounded realms in Jain cosmology. Every soul carries the burden of its karma, and actions driven by cruelty, greed, and ignorance lead to these excruciating outcomes. This is not fear-mongering—it’s awareness. Before engaging in any harmful act or thought, remember: the consequences are not limited to this life. They may follow us into the darkest corners of the universe. 🕊️ Let us live consciously, ethically, and compassionately—so we never have to experience the unimaginable pain of these lower worlds.

Words may be limited, but their emotions are infinite. That is the rule of the universe. Just like an ocean in a small pot, a brief visual can contain infinite joy and knowledge. Today, in Episode 55 of “Gagar Ma Sagar,” we explore the concept of Madhya Lok, the Middle World in Jain cosmology. Science vs. Spiritual Knowledge Before diving into Madhya Lok, I want to make a point: Modern science hasn’t revealed the existence of Devalok (heavenly realms) or Urdhva Lok (upper worlds), so I can explain them without scientific interference. The same goes for Adho Lok (lower worlds or hells), which we’ll cover tomorrow. Scientists dismiss hells, claiming they don’t exist, but I assure you, they do—and I will explain that convincingly. Science says Earth is round, part of a galaxy, and filled with observable phenomena. I’m not here to argue that. Just set aside what science tells you for a moment. Clear your mind and consider this: Our Kevaljnani (omniscient) Lords spoke only truth. Jainism has deep, complete knowledge on every subject—more than any science could provide. So why would Kevaljnani speak falsehoods? Science, on the other hand, has political interests, competitions, and motivations. For example, nations compete in vaccine development or space exploration—not purely for knowledge, but for power. My request: Set your beliefs aside and open your mind to understand what Jain scriptures say about the structure of the universe, especially Madhya Lok. The Structure of Madhya Lok (Middle World) Madhya Lok is the central part of the universe. Its center point is Mount Meru. It spans one Rajlok in width and 1,800 Yojans in height (roughly 21.6 million kilometers wide and 21,600 km tall). Mount Meru lies at the center, surrounded by countless concentric rings of islands (Dvipas) and oceans (Samudras) in alternating fashion, expanding outward like bangles. This region is the Manushya Kshetra (Human Zone), extending 4.5 million Yojans from Mount Meru—about 54 billion kilometers. Outside this zone, there are only animals—gigantic creatures, even larger than dinosaurs, called Tiryanchas. Only within this 4.5 million Yojan radius can humans be born. Above this, lies Siddha Shila, the realm of liberated souls. All souls that attain liberation rise directly from this zone—because only human beings from this specific Madhya Lok region can attain Moksha. The 2.5 Continents (Adhai Dvip) This human region is known as the Adhai Dvip, or 2.5 continents: We humans reside in Jambudvip, near Mount Meru, in a region called Bharat Kshetra to the south of Meru. This is our cosmic address. Within this structure: Beings and Cities of Madhya Lok Madhya Lok is home to: Also in Madhya Lok: Mount Meru is the spiritual hub where celestial beings gather during the birth of a Tirthankar. There are 14,000 main rivers, and each has 14,000 tributaries. This cosmology is grander than anything we can grasp in 15 minutes. Learning Jain Cosmology: Ganita Anuyog Our Acharyas, including Amol Rishiji and other revered monks, have invested immense effort into documenting this knowledge in texts under Ganita Anuyog—the mathematical-exploratory branch of Jain scriptures. Learning this gives you an accurate understanding of space and cosmology, more meaningful than speculative modern space research. Despite science spending billions, it cannot find water or life on other planets. No living being will be born elsewhere—and this Earth itself will perish one day. Conclusion What is the takeaway? You and I—residents of Bharat Kshetra in the fifth Ara—are at the spiritual center of the universe. From here alone can one attain Moksha. This knowledge isn’t for argument or entertainment. It’s for awakening. So rather than getting lost in scientific or political illusions, let us trust our omniscient Lords, respect Jain cosmology, and make the most of this rare human birth in Madhya Lok. Let’s live with spiritual awareness, not worldly confusion.

“Words may be few, but their meanings are infinite.”In the same way, a visual might be small, yet the emotions, joy, and knowledge that emerge from it are vast and endless. That is the hallmark of this Gagar Ma Sagar series. We have already discussed the three realms (Lokas) of the universe in Jain cosmology—Urdhva Lok (upper world), Madhya Lok (middle world), and Adho Lok (lower world).In today’s post, we explore the first of these: Urdhva Lok – the upper realm. 📍 Location and Structure Urdhva Lok spans just under 7 Rajlok in height. It comprises a central pillar surrounded by regions populated by various beings. Inside the central pillar lie the celestial abodes (Deva Loka), where divine beings (Devas) reside. Outside this, only non-mobile beings such as Earth-bodied, Air-bodied, Water-bodied, Plant-bodied, and subtle beings exist. Beyond that – nothing. Let’s understand Urdhva Lok from the topmost point downward, gradually moving toward the middle world. ✨ The Structure of Urdhva Lok 🔍 Other Notable Characteristics 🧘 Conclusion This is just a glimpse of the incredible and intricate structure of Urdhva Lok in Jain cosmology—a celestial world full of divinity, purity, and infinite order. Every detail, from Siddha Shila to the Deva Loks, shows how vast and spiritual the Jain worldview is. Even with all this said, we’ve barely scratched the surface. Urdhva Lok is so vast and profound that entire discourses can be dedicated to just one level. I encourage you to reflect on this knowledge. And if interested, we’ll continue the journey in upcoming posts—next stop: Mount Meru and Madhya Lok.

“Words may be few, but their meanings are infinite.”This is the science of the universe.Just like visuals may be small, but the joy and wisdom drawn from them is eternal and limitless. That is the essence of this “Gagar Ma Sagar” episode. This is Episode 53 – Universe (Lok). 🌱 Understanding the “Simple-Minded” In Jain scriptures, those who live life only to eat, drink, and carry out daily routines are referred to as “mand buddhi” (simple-minded). This doesn’t mean they lack intelligence. They may have a good brain, but they use it only for the basics—like animals, merely surviving. Such people never ask questions like: But every intelligent person, every true seeker or scholar, at some point in their life, has asked this question:“Where did this universe come from? Who created it? How does it work?” Everyone has formed their own theories. Science offers its own:It says the Earth was once a part of a luminous sphere like the sun. Over time, fragments broke off, cooled, changed form—and eventually formed the Earth as we know it. Even science keeps changing its explanations. A few years ago, its model of the Earth’s origin was different; today it’s changed again. It keeps evolving—because science doesn’t know the absolute truth. It only makes educated guesses. Similarly, religious philosophies give their own explanations. Some believe that gods like Brahma, Vishnu, or Mahesh created the universe. But even then, the question remains—who created Brahma? Every belief system ultimately reaches one conclusion: “It was self-created—Swabhavik or Swayambhu.” 🕉️ Jainism’s Firm and Logical Philosophy Jainism presents an incredibly strong and logical perspective: “That which has no beginning has no end. That which has a beginning must have an end.” In this world: Two eternal entities exist in the universe: So, today’s discussion is:What exists in this universe (Lok)? How is it structured? What is its nature? 🌌 What Is Lok? We’ve explored many concepts so far—Jiva (soul), Ajiva (non-soul), Karma, liberation, different sects within Jainism, and more.But where do we see all of this? Where all of this becomes visible—that is called “Lok” (the Universe). In Jain scriptures, the Sanskrit word “Lok” comes from the root “lūk”, meaning “to see.” In English, we say “look,” which shares the same origin. Lok is the realm where everything is visible and perceptible.Where nothing is visible, that’s called Alok (beyond the perceivable universe). 📐 The Shape and Structure of Lok So what is the shape of this universe? Imagine a man standing upright with his hands resting on his waist. That’s the general shape of Lok. It’s a 3D space, with: Trasa Naadi contains all beings that can move: Sthavara Naadi includes immobile entities: Only in Trasa Naadi will you find dynamic living beings like us. 📏 Measurement of Lok – The Rajlok Units To measure this massive universe, Jain philosophy uses a unit called Rajlok.The central pillar (Trasa Naadi) is 14 Rajloks tall.The entire Lok contains a total volume of 343 cubic Rajloks. To understand this: That’s the immensity of just one unit. So the whole universe consists of length, breadth, and height, multiplied accordingly to give a vast, unimaginable dimension. 🌠 The Position of Earth Within the Universe Where does our Earth fit into this? If the entire Lok can hold 10^129 × 10^129 Earths,then our Earth is just a speck—within one tiny part of one cube of this unimaginable universe. Even the supercomputers of today are dwarfed by the scale Jainism describes. This universe is self-existent, eternal, uncreated—a concept so vast that modern science can barely grasp it. 🧘‍♀️ Conclusion: Lok – A Universe Beyond Imagination Lok is the eternal realm where all existence—soul and non-soul—resides.From the tiniest lifeform to gods and galaxies, everything exists within this Lok.At its center lies Trasa Naadi, where mobile beings dwell.All around it is Sthavara Naadi, filled with immobile matter. This Lok has no beginning, no end. It was not created by anyone, and it cannot be destroyed. Such a universe, in its vastness and detail, has been described beautifully and precisely in Jain scriptures—well before the advent of modern science. In the next three blog posts, we’ll dive deeper into: 📿 Stay tuned. And revisit this article at least twice—there’s too much depth to grasp in one read.

Words may be few, but their emotions are infinite—this is the law of the universe. Just like the entire ocean fits into a small pitcher, visual content may be brief, but the joy and knowledge it gives is boundless. Today is Episode 52: Doing (Karvu), Causing to Do (Karavvu), and Approving (Anumodvu). I’m about to show you a science that may shake your thinking. It hasn’t been revealed in any modern science or religion—it’s actually an unbelievable, unimaginable law of the universe. The reason Jainism teaches us this science is so we can free ourselves from karma. People commonly say: “As you sow, so shall you reap.” But Jainism considers this incomplete. If I ask you—what percentage of that statement is true? You might say 100%. But Jainism says it’s only 25% of the full truth. There’s a lot more to it. It’s not just about what you do, but also what you make others do—and even what you approve of. Even if you don’t commit an act yourself, you still attract karma if you: For example, if someone commits a violent act and you silently think, “Wow, how skillfully they did it,” that alone binds karma to you. You didn’t do anything physically, you didn’t instruct them, but your approval—even silent, mental approval—is enough to attract negative karma. In modern terms, it’s like putting a gun on someone else’s shoulder and pulling the trigger. You may not have pulled it directly, but your involvement makes you equally responsible. This universe doesn’t let anything go unnoticed. Even watching a video where a fish is brutally chopped and thinking “What a skillful cut!” leads to karma. That is anumodna—silent approval—and it binds karma as if you did the act. There are three karmic roles: Let’s take an example of a cricket match. A huge stadium, packed audience, heavy betting, most players indulge in meat, alcohol, drugs, and so on. People cheer, place bets, watch with excitement—all of which becomes a field of sin (pāp no akhaado). Even if you’re just watching from your phone or television, even if you just think “Wow, what a sixer!”—that’s anumodna. No escape. Or wrestling (WWE): Wrestlers eat a heavy meat diet. People cheer them. Your cheers, your attention—all of it is anumodna. This is such subtle karma science that even thinking “If I were the whale, I’d eat all the fish” leads to rebirth in the 7th hell, as mentioned in Jain scriptures. That’s the story of the Tandulik Machhi—a tiny fish living near a whale’s eyelid, who only thinks “If I were in its place…” and that thought alone drags it to the lowest hell. Similarly, when people organize religious events, some praise the effort (positive anumodna), and others criticize them (negative anumodna, or ninda). Both bind karma. Thus, even ninda (criticism) is as karmically binding as approval. It’s not enough to avoid doing wrong. We must also stop: On the other hand, when someone does good deeds like donating, building temples, or supporting monks—praise them wholeheartedly. That praise binds positive karma. Even if you can’t do good yourself, cause others to do it, or at least approve of it. Sadly, people often criticize donors instead of supporting them. “He has money, what’s the big deal?” This creates obstructive karma. That’s why many people don’t find jobs or progress in life—because they never appreciate goodness in others. Learn to praise goodness. Even if you walk into a Jain center and see a donor’s name on the board, say in your mind: “Blessed be this person who made this possible.” There are four kinds of sin in Jainism: All four are equally binding. Likewise, four ways to earn virtue (punya): Even daily items like toothpaste may have non-veg ingredients. If you use them, you’re responsible—even if unintentionally. Hence, self-reliance, making your own things, is not just a Gandhian value—it’s a Jain principle of non-violence. Gandhi’s spinning wheel (charkha) symbolizes Jain self-reliance: Create what you need, use only what’s pure and ethical. Conclusion: Karvu, Karavvu, Anumodvu—Doing, Making Others Do, and Approving—this triad is the foundation of karmic science in Jainism. Don’t think you’re innocent just because you didn’t act. Every thought, every word, every response carries weight. Avoid sin in all forms—direct, indirect, and mental. And support goodness—in action, in praise, and in spirit. Only then can we break free from karmic bondage and move toward liberation.

Understanding the Subtle Descent into Spiritual Violence “Words may be few, but their meanings are infinite. From this small vessel flows the ocean of boundless insight.” Welcome to Episode 51 of our ongoing spiritual series. Today, we explore four significant spiritual terms: Avinay (Disrespect), Ashatna (Opposition), Abhakti (Disloyalty), and Aparadh (Violation). These aren’t just abstract concepts, but critical signposts on the path of ethical and spiritual decay if not understood and corrected. 🌊 The Science Behind Spiritual Decline Every day, knowingly or unknowingly, we engage in behaviors that hurt other living beings. This creates karma bonds and leads to spiritual downfall. Jain philosophy beautifully lays out the descending order of spiritual failure, and today we explore that science. Though the terms Avinay, Ashatna, Abhakti, and Aparadh may sound similar, they differ in intensity: When the intensity of Avinay increases, it leads to Ashatna.When Ashatna intensifies, it becomes Abhakti.And finally, it culminates into Aparadh — the gravest form of spiritual harm. Before Avinay, there is something even more subtle: Anadar (Disrespect at the heart level). When we internally reject someone or something, the seed of sin is planted. 🧠 The Psychological Process of Spiritual Fall The sequence looks like this: This gradual increase in intensity starts from mental non-acceptance and leads to external aggression. 🪷 Real-Life Example: The Disciple’s Fall Let’s understand this through a story of a silent monk (Mahātma) and his disciple: A great sage lived in silence and performed intense austerities like chhattha, aththam, masakshaman, etc. His spiritual energy was so high that whenever he spoke, gold coins rained down from the sky. A man was drawn to his aura and requested initiation. The monk remained silent. Still, the man followed him everywhere, adopted monkhood himself, and eventually received initiation. But later, the disciple’s mind turned. He tested the guru by asking whether a nearby sapling would live or die. The guru replied: It will live. Secretly, the disciple uprooted the plant and threw it away. Later, he was shocked to see it growing. The wind and rain had re-rooted it. From this, the disciple concluded: Everything happens by fate; nothing is in our hands. He abandoned the guru and began preaching fatalism — that no one needs to act. Lazier people gathered around him, impressed by his passive doctrine. Eventually, this former disciple began bad-mouthing his guru, accusing him of jealousy and hypocrisy. He plotted to publicly humiliate the monk and even incited violence. But due to the monk’s spiritual power and divine favor, the disciple suffered divine punishment and died from sudden illness. 🧭 Breakdown of the Fall Let’s decode this using the four stages: 🚫 Why These Four Are Spiritually Fatal 🔚 Conclusion: From Inner Disrespect to Outright Sin A single act of inner rejection — like Anadar or Avinay — can gradually lead to grave sins like Aparadh. The more we repeat this cycle, the deeper we go. Thus, we must always maintain: Let us remember: From one Avinay, a flood of spiritual damage can begin.Only constant awareness, humility, and reverence can protect our soul’s journey to liberation.
