FOREWORD
I am extremely happy to have been
given the honour of writing a Foreword
for Sri Yogi Srijis book titled Wisdom
Light, a very apt title. A book is not worth
the paper it is printed upon unless it
sheds some light on a given subject. If a
book does shed such light and the subject
is also concerned with the upliftment of
the society, then it deserves to be
commended and read widely. I understand
Sri Yogi Sriji is a Guru for a number
of persons in the field of yoga. The word
Guru means one who sheds divine light
and dispels darkness. An ordinary guru
waits for his disciples to come to him
and obtain wisdom whereas, the elders
say, a Sathguru is one who is so full of
love and compassion for his disciples
iii

that He seeks them on his own and leads

them in the right path. I wish to see
Sri Yogi Sriji as a Sathguru in this part
of the world.
The book lucidly explains the
complete threefold dimensions of yoga.
There is a wrong nation that yoga is just an
art of twisting the body into various
intricate shapes and adopt certain
unnatural postures like standing on ones
head. This book explains beautifully that
postures (Asanas) are nothing but
physical exercises and it is the
combination of all the three parts of Yoga,
namely exercise, breathing techniques and
meditation which can yield the desired
results. If asanas are difficult due to any
physical constraints, then even other
exercises like walking, jogging, cycling,
swimming etc can be done. This is a
pleasant surprise for me who can now do
my pranayamas without feeling guilty
that my body has become too rigid to do
asanas.
iv

The Part - I of the Introduction seeks

to tell the reader why men fail and what
kind of questions (like who am I...) should
bother mankind. There is none on this
earth who wants to fail and hence everyone
wants to know how to succeed. The failures
Sri Yogi Sriji refers to are not the ones
at the mundane level but on the higher
level, the spiritual level, where kings and
emperors miserably fail but beggers
and fakirs succeed, with ease and grace.
In these days, there is no dearth of
literature on the spiritual sciences and the
organized institutions in this filed talk
about thousands of crores of rupees in
donations, contributions and sales. An
ordinary man either blindly follows one of
these systems or stung by their
commercialization, stays away from all
such institutions, thereby losing the real
benefit of these sciences which our
ancestors left for us. It is like throwing the
cup away because you have something
against the cup, whereas the content
is pure nectar.
v

Sri Yogi Sriji is not in this for

commerce. My interaction with him

say, Try it. If it works, keep it. If it does

not, throw it away. I have not seen any
serious practitioner, throwing his
practices away like this.
So, I request the reader to understand
that this book is a small key which can
open great doors. As the famous writer
Thiru Balakumaran wrote in his
foreword to the Tamil and more elaborate
version of this book ("hd xU
mj). it is not enough to just read.
One should get trained by proper
teachers. We are lucky to have a living
master in Sri Yogi Sriji. Our luck would
be fruitful only when we get initiated
under masters like him and do regular
practices. I wish all the best for you in this
path.

'A WONDER IN SCIENCE

(Original in Tamil)

Popular Tamil Writer Sri Balakumaran

has given the following compliment,-

This book is an excellent guide. Just

like an affectionate mother, passionately
holding the little hands of her beloved
child, leads him to school, this book gently
leads the reader of any age to the edifice
of Meditation.
The above comment of a veteran
writer beautifully conveys the humanism
coupled with profound wisdom one can
notice in the words and deeds of
YOGI SRIJI a living Saint!

YOGI SRIJI is an enlightened

spiritual leader. Founder of Trikarana
Yoga Charitable Trust registered under
the Charitable and Religious Trust Act
1920 in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. It
is a non-profitable social organization.
He propagates his philosophy 'Yoga of Life'
in a new dimension viz. 'Trikarana
Transcendental Meditation' (TTM) under
a popular title 'NIMMATHI UNKAIYIL'
(epk;kjp cd;ifapy); i.e. Peace in Your
Hand. He perfectly designed and
advocating how to control and balance the
threefold unity of body, mind and soul
(BMS) of the human kind through a
simple scientific technique. It transcends
racial, religious, linguistic and national
boundaries based upon time tested
scientific laws of nature, governing the
whole universe.

YOGI SRIJI, was born as Kuttiappan

Ganesan in the year 1950 in an
agricultural family in Coimbatore, is a
post-graduate. He joined the Tamil Nadu
Government Service and after a long
distinguished service in the department
of Commercial Taxes, he retired as
Deputy Commissioner. In the meanwhile,
having spent more than 25 years of intense
spiritual life, he achieved self-realization
at the age of 47 and realized that science
and spirituality are the same, because
science is an experiment and spirituality
is an experience on belief. With his
relentless search, he was very fortunate to
be blessed with a miraculous divine
darshan from Almighty in the year 1997.
In as much as the almighty is the Guru
of all gurus, with His blessings he
advocated his innovation in scientific
manner for the peace and well-beings of
all sections of people across the globe. Yogi
Sriji has dedicated his life in helping
people to attain perfect physical health,

PUBLISHER'S NOTE

profound mental peace, vital soul strength,

joy, and success in all spheres of human
endeavors. However, he remains a
'householder', i.e. he has not broken his
family ties, nor renounced the world, but
rather lives a life of true detachment
devoid of exhibitionism, maintaining
family ties and performing his Karma with
the insight of a Gnana Yogi.
Based on his knowledge of the origin
and functions of the cosmos and all the
aspects of life as revealed to his inner
vision by the Almighty, Yogi Sriji has
written an excellent book in Tamil under
the title A wonder in science in the year
2010. Now He extracts the essence of the
Tamil book and presents in English to
facilitate each and everyone to attain bliss
and wisdom in this world everlastingly.

PREFACE
Dear brothers and sisters and all my
beloved youngsters, the beautiful souls of
this marvelous universe, please accept the
pranams of 'Yogi Sriji' with Love and Good
wishes to every one of you. This booklet
which you are now holding in the lotus
palms of your beautiful hands was
originally written by me in Tamil with the
title 'A wonder in science' and published
by Dina Publications, Coimbatore-641025,
in the year 2010. Besides the
overwhelming response to that book in
Tamil, the longing of many of my beloved
brothers and sisters to carry the universal
message contained in that book to the
nook and corner of the world prompted
me to extract the essence from the Tamil
book and present it in English. The
intention is to facilitate each and everyone
residing on all parts of the wonderful
xv

planet Earth to attain success fulfilling

all his dreams and desires, and enjoy the
real life gifted by the Almighty.
It is my wish that you begin a new life
from today onwards. Many people have a
false notion that the philosophy of life
and the associated theories are dry
subjects that are very difficult to
understand and much more difficult to
follow. Nevertheless, I assure you all that
you can easily understand and immensely
benefit from them provided you learn
them with the right attitude and in the
right manner. This Trikarana
Transcendental Meditation (TTM),
invented by me after rigorous spiritual
contemplation for several years, will
certainly help you to gain the wisdom that
is needed for living a blissful and
meaningful life easily and efficiently.
TTM is neither a religious ritual nor a
regress exercise; it is a simple scientific
xvi

technique and a blending the threefold

unity of body, mind and soul (BMS) with
no efforts; it is very easy to learn and
practice that technique and it does not
require any special ability. It is universal
in its appeal as it is open to the people of
all ages, cultures, educational
backgrounds.It appeals equally to people
of all sorts and shades regardless of
whether they identify themselves with
any of the organized religions or have
proclaimed themselves to be atheists or
agnostics. It is a science of 'Silent Inner
Revolution' - the threefold unification for
the well being of humankind.

(Commercial Taxes) (Retd) and Advocate,

in the High Court of Madras for his review
and final touches to make the book more
readable and intelligible to a vast majority
of people across the globe.
I hope that this publication would
help in efficient management of infinite
powerhouse in everyone's life for
enlightenment and enjoyment of the real
pleasure forever!

INTRODUCTION
Part - I
Dear brothers and sisters,

AWAKE. ARISE.
OR EVER BE FALLEN
You are wise enough to know that the
words above are not mine; I am quoting
the above dynamic words of Swami
Vivekananda only to reach to your very
soul and open your heart to receive me in
full with confidence and love. I had an
inner realization, which I have been
cherishing for more than Twenty Nine
years with an intention to share it with
you. Therefore, lend your time, ears, mind
to me leaving aside for a while your
disbeliefs and skepticism and be prepared
to experience the inner revolution I am
passionately sharing with you; you may
1

later to come out with your doubts and

misgivings, which I shall be too happy
to clarify.
You know today every human being
is desperately searching for 'Nimmathi'
(epk;kjp) i.e. 'Peace'; he thinks that he
can get it only by achieving all his dreams
and satisfying all his desires. However,
success eludes him because he does not
take the correct way to reach the
destination desired by him. I am sure that
TTM will give you the right route map
that will guide you to reach the stage in
your life where you can taste total success
and absolute enjoyment of the real
happiness in life. The way suggested is the
threefold unity of body, mind and soul
( B MS) . T hi s uni t y i s t he p ri m e
requirement and purpose of your whole life
and all other expectations and aspirations
pale into insignificance in the glorious
light of this Holy Trinity.

There are so many people who had

already written numerous volumes and
spoken elaborately and eloquently about
the philosophy of life and my endeavor
is to simplify with the blessings from
Almighty what all they wrote and talked
about and pass it on to you in a pleasant
and readily acceptable form. I have termed
my inner realization as 'TRIKARANA
TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION' (TTM)

and also given it a popular title

'NIMMATHI UNKAIYIL' (epk;kjpcd;ifapy);
i.e. 'Peace in your hand'. Before venturing
into the core topic of our study, I would
like to make you conversant with basic
general issues in brief.
We are aware that in the universe,
there are millions and millions of stars
and many sun families. We are also aware
that we are living in this earth, which
is a part of the sun family. The earth is the
fifth largest planet in the solar system
and the only planet that supports life. It
3

weighs roughly about 59,720,000 million

tons and its circumference covers 40,075
km. It is located 149,597,000 km away
from the sun. The earth rotates around its
own axis at a speed of 1,670 km/hour and
it takes 23 hours 56 minutes 04.09053
seconds for the earth to complete one such
full rotation. By the time it takes one
rotation along its axis travels which we
call as a 'DAY' it revolves around the sun
at a speed of 1,07,870 km/hour and at
this speed it covers 25,41,450 km/day
and completes one full revolution, covering
940 million km, around the sun in
365.2564 days which we term as a
'YEAR'. Besides, you would be astonished
to know that in the above process sun's
peripheral atmosphere wind flows 400
km/second, that is 14,40,000 km/hour. The
beauty is that not only the earth but
also the things that are lying on the earth
- all living creations including vegetation
and animals and the human beings, and

lifeless objects are all travelling such long

distances at great speed continuously
without any break. We are standing,
walking, swimming, playing etc. on the
earth as if it is static without feeling its
movements in the universal space. The
moon, which is a natural satellite to the
earth, is revolving around the earth once
in 28 days. It weighs 735,000 million
tones and its circumference covers 10,919
km. It is located 4, 07,000 km away from
the earth. This sun family said to have 140
moons viz. Earth has 01 moon, Mars
02 moons, Jupiter 63 moons, Saturn
34 moons, Uranus 27 moons and Neptune
13 moons, but the Mercury and Venus
have no moons. Besides dwarf planets
like Pluto and Eris, countless comets,
asteroids, and meteoroids are there. This
information is subject to change since to
the vision of the scientists expands
everlastingly. We can talk endlessly about
the things known about the Sun family

and the rest of the universe; however, we

have to reconcile ourselves to the fact that
the wonders of the universe yet to be
discovered by us are far more enormous,
magnificent and infinitely incomparable
to what little we have so far explored
using our limited human capabilities. I,
therefore, feel that it is a wiser option
to leave it to your imagination, which is
also as boundless as the universe.
We are blessed with our lives on earth
and we have every reason to be proud of
this blessing. But, at the same time, we
should know that without understanding
the purpose of our living and ensuring our
association with Almighty we are wasting
our life in pursuing the worldly pleasures,
which in fact but bring in only pain and
stress with occasional glimpses of
momentary gratifications. We can see that
the majority of people reach the end of
their lives without having lived them in
health and happiness. The most important
6

advice I give you is to keep faith in yourself

instead of going behind things that
invariably bring misery and disaster.
All our blunders are self-made and
they are only all our own creations.
Broadly speaking, we can identify four
major reasons for the frequent failures in
human life. They are, 1)

Doing things without self awareness

2)

Doing things without any goal or aim

3)

Doing things without tolerance; and

4)

Doing things without strong

willpower

Strong willpower and conviction

cannot come as such, and to acquire it one
has to train oneself, practice regularly
to balance his threefold unity of body,
mind and soul (BMS) and to ultimately
understand the purpose of whole life.
Life is, no doubt, a mystery. It is not a
simple mathematical puzzle with an easy
7

solution. For a few, life is comfortable; but

for many others it is miserable. Life is
miserable for them not because that they
lack money and power but because they
have disturbance in their body, mind and
soul (BMS). In this context many questions
remains unanswered forever.
To quote some of them, i)

Who are you?

ii)

Where did you come from?

iii) Where do you go when you leave this

body?

shy away from answering those questions

with the result that frustration and
disappointment continue to haunt them
constantly. To understand life and to get
enlightenment with permanent peace and
happiness, all you have to do is to break
away from all the boundaries that try to
limit you and start practicing TTM. Once
you learn its methods and techniques and
cultivate the habit of practicing them
daily, you will get the enlightenment and
enjoy the real pleasure in your life forever.
Are you ready for it!

We can raise many such questions

endlessly and everlastingly. The human
mind limits its boundaries with its own
religious dogmas and frozen ideas and

As a first step towards mastering

TTM techniques, you have to understand
that synchronization of body, mind, and
soul (BMS) alone is the sole remedy to
free one from the stresses and strains that
are confronting one today. The TTM is a
simple scientific technique of blending
Trikarana i.e. the threefold unity of body,
mind, and soul (BMS) designed to solve the
problems of humankind and to perfect

iv) What is the object of life?

v)

What is the universal truth?

vi) What is Heaven and what is hell? and

vii) Who is the best judge of the human
behavior?

We should know that selfenlightenment is not a commodity that one

can purchase or borrow from somebody. It
should emulate within oneself. It is a kind
of intuition or instinct. All the great
inventions by human minds at all times
had been only out of intuition though one
may call them varyingly as brain-works,
knowledge-products, pearls of wisdom etc.
Astounding discoveries become possible
during the periods when the intuition
potential of the discoverer is at its highest

peak. We, the humans claim that we,

unlike animals, have the sixth sense; but
the fact is that we too once lived like
animals without cloths and behaved
exactly like them. Only on gradually and
as a process of evolution, we became more
and more civilized. We have now reached
the stage where we excel in science,
medicine, arts, religion, and other
disciplines. Today's man is creating,
preserving, and destroying things, which
were once considered the unique powers
of the GOD. He is now challenging the
nature in every respect by constantly
overcoming his constraints and enlarging
his limits. Such a grand outcome of
evolution is not manifest in other living
beings. The progress of the humanity is
attributable to man's sense of reasoning
which is a blessing conferred on him by the
ALMIGHTY. One cannot procure the
intuition potential from outside and one
has to extract it from the deepest layers of

10

11

the performing ability of every individual.

Above all, it is a science of 'Silent Inner
Revolution' intended for the well being
of humankind and spreading the WISDOM
LIGHT for everyone's benefit. This novel
method is based upon the time tested
scientific laws of nature, governing the
whole Universe; and this has nothing to do
with race, language, caste, creed, color and
religion or religious affinity or
indifference.

his conscience in a manner similar to the

way one draws water that is present at the
bottom of a very deep well. I assure you
that TTM is the right device to pump the
power of intuition potential into every
aspect of your human existence.

ether and breathed into his nostrils the

breath of life; and man became a living
being. According to the Old Testament God
put the first man into deep sleep and
created the first woman from his rib...

There are ever so many mysteries

around us, the greatest among them being
the creation of this cosmos. Going by our
present knowledge, we could assume that
human race exist only on the earth and
the scientific community has not so far
come out with any concrete evidence to
suggest the existence of human lives on
any other planet in the sun family or
elsewhere in the universe. The Almighty
had created this world; He not only created
this world but also created all life forms
including vegetations and animals with
senses varying from one to six. It is said
that the Almighty had created the body
of the man from the five elements such
as soil of the earth, water, fire, air, and

When the humankind began to

assimilate the information available
before him, he feared the nature's fury
and started worshiping it. The Sun was
his first object of worship and then he
started worshiping the five elements such
as earth, water, fire, air, and ether.
Afterwards he worshipped every power
that he had confronted. He depicted GOD
in the form of furious animals he feared.
With evolution, he started to find out ways
and means to control and contain the
nature. He began to communicate his
feelings to his fellow human beings with
sound; and languages evolved in that
process. The rhythmic sounds in
languages came to be employed to address
the GOD giving birth to various mantras

12

13

and Vedas showering praises on the God.

The sound that vibrates and re-vibrates
in the entire cosmos all the time at all
places is 'OM'. It is a mystic word
recognized by the Hindu mystics in India.
In this context, I wish to place on record
that this 'OM' is nothing but a rhythmic
sound of every breathings of all the living
creations including the human beings
and the moving Nature in a strange
rhythm, which we call ATHMA RAGA, the
Raga of Soul.
This life power alone
controls the entire performance of all the
creations. In the evolution process, there
were many stages and improvements and
consequently rituals varied from time to
time. When the human race began to live
in groups near the river, water happened
to be the main source of its livelihood. In
the next process of evolution, men began
to use the mother earth to meet their
basic needs of food, shelter, and security.
In the course of time, various modes of

worship began to surface - each group of

the human race living in the various parts
of the vast world adopting different forms
of worship in conformity with the
atmosphere and surroundings in which
they lived.
India, the land of Indus, is the
fountainhead of many religions as
education was accessible to the Indian
civilization. Gurus and Rishies of the
yester years passed on their knowledge to
fellow citizens orally as there were no
writing habits or materials such as paper
and pen during those times. The education
during those days was confined to
recitation of the Vedas and Mantras and
recording them in the mind. Refinement
of the methods of worship and the
evolution of logical reasoning led to the
birth of Buddhism and Jainism in India.
Pataliputra and Nalanda of the Indian
continent were the centers of the education
during those days and they were

14

15

equivalent to the Cambridge and Oxford of

the present.
With the invasion of Moguls and the
subsequent arrival of Englishmen in
India, Islam and Christianity came to be
introduced in India. The degrading caste
system that was practiced among the
Hindus forced many people from the
suppressed communities to find new
identity and comfort in these new
religions. India has now come out of those
dark ages and today it is the biggest
democratic and secular nation in the
world.
The Almighty is the unexplainable
energy that governs us. We may say that
the Almighty is a core question that
remains unanswered forever. We call IT
by various names such as LORD, GOD,
SIVA, VISHNU, BRAHMA, JESUS, ALLAH
AND NATURE - like we call our relatives
as mother, father, brother, sister, uncle,
16

aunt etc. These relatives are only men

and women, but we use many relative
terms to identify them. The same person
is a son, grandson, father, grandfather,
brother, or uncle depending on the person
who identifies him. Likewise, the same
ALMIGHTY is known by different names
such as GOD, LORD, NATURE etc to
different people; whatever may be the
name by which it is called, the Almighty
remains the same as the unexplainable
and imponderable source of energy. Let
me give an example to you to elucidate the
matter further. The eyes, ears, nose,
mouth, head, hands, legs, and all other
parts of the body cannot function
independently as they are all interdependent and the whole body alone could
be termed as human being. Likewise,
during the early period of evolution men
worshiped the nature which he feared but
subsequently when he overcame that fear
with the information and knowledge he
17

began to see the presence of 'ALMIGHTY' in

each and every thing. The central core of
creation is the same; you can call it by
whatever name you prefer. GOD MEN
AND SPIRITUAL GURUS SPRING FROM
TIME TO TIME, PERFORM CERTAIN
MIRACLES, ATTRACT SOME GROUP OF
PEOPLE, AND SETUP THEIR OWN SECTS
BY WAY OF CREATING A DISTINCT
BRAND TO PERPETUATE THEIR
IDENTITY. I can assure, these attractions

are only momentary and bound to vanish

with the passage of time. The time-tested
philosophy is that there is only ONE
SUPERNATURAL BEING, that is DIVINE
COSMIC ENERGY. Therefore, the human
race could flourish and find peace only if
they understand this truth and try to
disassociate with 'EGO' that makes claims
such as My society is superior to yours,
My God is superior to your God etc.
Causing injury to the other religions, nonbelievers and other sects of people is not
18

going to bring Nimmathi (epk;kjp) i.e. peace

to oneself. Likewise success and failure
in human life is not associated with any
race, language, caste, creed, color, religion
or ego, but it is associated with his peaceful
mind and the attainment of 'Nimmathi'
(epk;kjp)
will be possible only if the
threefold unity of body, mind and soul
(BMS) is clearly understood with
compassion and clarity. This is the only
way we can prosper in this world along
with our beloved human beings.

helping the fellow-beings are sure recipes

for WORLD PEACE. Please listen to
me attentively and visualize how the
TTM will relieve the suffering masses
from the stresses and strains of life.

So far, I have tried my best to make

you conversant with the basic issues in
brief. Let us move on to the main subject
of Trikarana Transcendental Meditation
(TTM) now. Man is a social animal. While
he lives, he has to live in harmony with
members of his family, the society, and
his country; he has to fulfill certain duties
that are expected of him as a citizen,
however unpleasant or arduous they may
be. When everyone develops this kind
of attitude and cultivate the habits of
tolerance and respect for the rights and
feelings of others, there will be no room
for any trouble in family, society and in
the world. Spreading compassion and

The success or failure in human life

depends upon one's physical health,
strength of one's soul and the level of one's
mental peace. For any person, his own
body is more familiar and dearer to him
than anything else is, but unfortunately,
he knows very little about it. The human
body is a wonderful and mystic formation
which represents one of the most perfectly
designed and coordinated structures.
Each part of the body is unique and
unparalleled. Even the best science today
cannot make an exact replica of a human
body. The human body consists of a
number of interacting systems. The
skeleton forms a rigid framework with 206
bones attached to the muscles, facilitates
movements ordered by the nervous

21

22

Dear brothers and sisters,

system, and is responsible for the body's

reaction to stimuli. Hormones produced
by the endocrine system, control many
functions including growth and
developmental changes such as puberty.
The cardiovascular system circulates
blood around the body, delivering oxygen
and nutrients and collecting carbon
dioxide and waste, while the respiratory
system exchanges carbon dioxide with the
inhaled oxygen. The lymphatic system
fights infection. The digestive system
derives from food energy and nutrients
required for growth and repair. The
urinary system eliminates waste and
helps to regulate chemicals in the body.
The reproductive system is concerned with
producing offspring. Thus, the human
body is functioning as a factory endlessly
right from womb to tomb.
Further, the size of the human body is
firstly determined by diet and secondly by
genes. Body type i.e. slim, fat, tall, short,

wide-shouldered, etc. and the body

composition like percentages of bone, fat,
muscle and all other elements are
influenced by factors such as diet and
exercise. By the time the human reaches
adult-hood, the body has 100 trillion cells.
Each organ is designed to perform an
essential life function. The human body
consists of 70-90% water and its
significant portion is composed of carboncontaining organic molecules. Oxygen
therefore contributes a majority of a
human body's mass, followed by carbon. In
order to understand the relation of food to
the nourishment and repairing of the body,
it will be necessary to learn, at first, what
the human body is composed of and what
elements contained in the food are
required to build and keep the body in a
healthy condition. Ninety nine percentage
(99%) of the mass of the human body is
made up of major six elements i.e. oxygen
61%, carbon 23%, hydrogen 10%, nitrogen

23

24

2%, calcium 2%, and phosphorus 1%. The

remaining elements such as sulfur,
potassium, sodium, chlorine, magnesium,
iron, zinc, and silicon constitute 1% only.
Human body is just like an engine of
a vehicle. It is dangerous to drive a
vehicle fitted with a defective engine.
We must make our bodies firm, strong
and fit for work. We find that some people
have a strong body and a soft nature.
Some, on the other hand, have strong
body and rough character because they
lack true knowledge and real experience.
One can make one's body fit for work
by adopting the following methods:
1.

Firstly, know what makes the body

healthy and strong and what makes it
weak and sick.

2.

Always keep a close watch on whether

he is digesting what he eats.

3.

From time to time, skip a meal or two

and let the stomach rest.
25

4.

Play games or do exercise daily.

Through exercise, the body becomes
strong and through games, one can
gain mastery over the movements of
the body.

5.

Make a firm vow to follow a fixed

routine.

6.

Never miss an opportunity to perform

good deeds.

7.

Do not hesitate to take on whatever

task presented it to him.

While doing so in a proper manner and

on regular basis, all the functions are
synchronized with the threefold
unification of the body, mind, and soul
(BMS) of humankind. However, because
of enormous powers acquired by a man
there are lot of stresses and strains in him.
When a machine exceeds its installed
capacity wear and tear is bound to occur.
Remedial measures therefore become
necessary; similarly, TTM provides
26

solution to the stress redden life by

instigating the human power to secrete the
required output to kindle one's knowledge
and wisdom besides providing good
health cheer and peaceful mind.
Therefore, to bring out the success and
brightness from within everyone and to
experience the glowing eternal bliss it
is our primary duty to protect the
'threefold unity' through regular practice
of some simple asana or physical exercise,
breathe exercise and meditation.
Before that, I wish to enlighten those
seven organs of the endocrine system of
the human body viz. Pineal gland;
Pituitary gland; Thyroid and Parathyroid
glands; Thymus; Adrenal; Liver and
Pancreas and the Reproductive organs
are classified as the core points of Seven
Spiritual Chakras in Hindu philosophy to
attain Salvation / Nimmathi in human life.
The following explanations harmonize the
said philosophy with science.
27

MULADHARA :
This chakra is
placed at the bottom end of the spinal
centre of region below genitals. It is the
root of the very life. This chakra is the very
base for the entire human body Meta
mephitis. It controls the Adrenal glands
and kidney and their proper functioning.
If this chakra is activated under proper
supervision, you can escape from the
adverse effect of the failure of this organ.
SVADHISTHANA :
This chakra
lies just below the navel point. The sexual
attraction emanates from and controlled
by this chakra. Testicles, ovaries are
under this control. It has the power of
knowing things beyond the five senses.
The birthplace of man's EGO emanates
only from here.
MANIPURA : This chakra is located
above the navel point in the central part of
the human body. This place is the spring
of all the feeling. This chakra controls
28

liver, gallbladder. The muscles around

this part would go non-functional if this
chakra has not been induced.
ANAHATA : This chakra otherwise
known as Heart chakra is situated in the
region of heart. Love, goodwill, affection,
faith, religion, and good conduct all
emanates from this chakra. Heart and
lungs are controlled by this chakra. The
Thymus gland is associated with this
chakra.
VISUDDHA :
This chakra is
available in throat and thyroid and Para
thyroid are associated with this chakra.
Communication expressing feelings and
the creativity are emanates from this
chakra.
Throat, tongue, respiratory
channel, footpath, and hands are under
the control of this chakra.
AJNA : This chakra lies between the
eyebrows. Telepathy, knowledge,
steadfast mind are controlled by this
29

chakra. The third eye is also believed to be

located here; it controls spinal card, lower
part of the brain, eyes, nose, and ears.
Pituitary gland is associated with this
chakra.
SAHASRARA :
This chakra is
located in the upper part of the brain and
the gland associated with this chakra is
pineal. Man gets wisdom and knowledge
from this chakra and the intuition
potential begins from here and induces
performance of tangible actions.
KUNDALINI is the Divine Cosmic
Energy in human bodies. If all these
chakras are in proper synchronization
with one another, one can gradually raise
the mystic power of 'Kundalini' from
Muladhara through sushmnanadi (spinal
cord) by regular practice of some asana
breathe exercises, and meditation. Only
that mystic power can liberate a man from
his animal behavior and enable him to
attain eternal peace in his life.
30

YOGA SYSTEM is an ancient Indian

technique of integrating human
personality at the physical mental moral
and spiritual levels. It can be described
by a system consisting of the following
eight aspects:
1.

Yama' is a moral principle like nonviolence, truthfulness, honesty,

integrity, abstinence from sexual and
secular pleasures.

2.

Niyama' is a rule of discipline like

purity, contentment, austerity and
dedication to divinity

3.

Asana' is a Yogic posture of

comfortable sitting that will be
helpful to achieve the target.

4.

Pranayama' is the preservation of

vital energy in the body through
inhaling, exhaling and controlling the
movements of breath.

5.

Pratyhara' is the control of mind and

sense organs
31

6.

Dharana' is a concentration of one's

mind

7.

Dhyana' is a deep meditation or

concentration of mind at one-point.

8.

Samathi' is the stage of

transcendental consciousness when
the individual unites with the
Universal power.

Nevertheless, nowadays majority of

the peoples are under a wrong notion that
YOGA means 'Asana' only and they believe
that if they practice some asana for a few
minutes daily for a specified period, all
their physical problems, soul weakness,
mental ailments, stresses, and strains
will vanish. However, the fact is that
asana is only one among the above eight
aspects of YOGA System. My endeavor is
to convergent the wandering mind into a
single focus for the benefit of humankind.
For this, everyone has to practice the three
major aspects of YOGA i.e. Asana, Breathe
32

Exercise, and Meditation on a regular

basis and then only one can achieve
perfection in all other aspects. These
three are the only practical aspects of the
YOGA system and the remaining are
the resultant manifestations.
However, in the modern science
physical exercise is an alternative for
asana.
Many people attempt to learn
asana, but when they face difficulties,
they just lack motivation to continue and
give up their practice. Besides, they
wrongly conclude that this should be
started when one is young and then
regularly practiced without any break
in order to attain the ability to perform
the asana postures perfectly. In this
present world, all the physical problems
and allied mental ailments can be treated
with appropriate asana techniques or
physical exercises. In my view every
human being may cultivate the habit of
doing few asana slowly for 10 to 15 minutes
33

daily; as an alternative, one can do

some simple physical exercise at least for
30 minutes at one's convenience either in
the morning or evening regularly. That is
enough; in fact, physical exercise is more
effective than asana for the present
generation to overcome the stresses and
strains that are confronting them today.
To elucidate the issue further I am giving a
chart below to know how much calories are
exhausted per hour through various
regular exercises,Squash: 844c; Skipping, Swimming:
704c; Basket-ball, cycling, running,
walking upstair: 563c; Football, Iceskating, Tennis: 493c; Cricket, Skating:
352c; Dancing: 317c; Golf, Table tennis:
281c; Housework, walking: 246c;
Standing: 120c; Sitting 90c &
Sleeping: 65c.
BREATHE EXERCISE is nothing but

Pranayama; it is a preservation of vital

34

energy of Oxygen or Pranasakthi in the

body through inhaling, exhaling and
controlling the movements of breath. As
per the law of science, oxygen is the prime
factor in the life of human race. The human
energy, his mental peace, and his
performance are all governed by the intake
of oxygen only. In the human body, the
oxygen is absorbed by the blood stream in
the lungs, and then transported to the cells
where an elaborated process takes place.
The living cell is the site of tremendous
biochemical activity called metabolism.
Oxygen plays a vital role in the breathing
processes and in the metabolism of the
living organisms. Oxygen supports our
life, oxidizes, or burns food to create energy
and heat for our bodies. This process of
chemical and physical change goes on
repeatedly in the human body being
responsible for the build-up of new tissue,
replacement of old tissue, conversion of
food to energy, disposal of waste materials,

reproduction and all the activities that

we characterize as "life." Even a
nonprofessional would understand that
only as long as one breathes he is
considered a living being; otherwise, he is a
corpse, a dead body. Circulation of blood
throughout the body facilitate digestion of
food, nourishment on the body and mental
thinking- all these activities performed
with the help of the power of Oxygen only.
It is essential for each and everyone to
learn the technique of controlling and
utilizing the power of Oxygen for stilling
the restless mind.
Besides, Oxygen diffuses through
membranes into red blood cells after
inhalation into the lungs. The enzyme uses
oxygen to catalyze many oxidation
reactions in the body, which is called
metabolism. Carbon dioxide, a waste
product, is released from the cell and into
the blood, where it combines with
bicarbonate and hemoglobin for transport

35

36

to the lungs. Blood circulates back to the

lungs and the process repeats. It has been
evaluated that normally a man inhales
an average of 6 liters of air in a minute
with a speed of 160 km/hour totaling to
8,640 liters in a day. MENTAL
PERFORMANCE IN THE HUMAN BODY
CAN IMPROVE BY FEEDING THE BRAIN
WITH EXTRA OXYGEN. The oxygen

regimen improves alertness, reflexes,

memory, and apparently intelligence.
Therefore, everyone should do the breathe
exercise at least for 10 to 15 minutes before
meditation regularly for having more
oxygen. If one were able to control the
breath in tune to the set of rules properly
then the entire body would be under his
command.

threefold unity of body, mind and soul

(BMS) and a method detaching oneself
from physical problems, mental anxieties
etc., by silent meditation and repetition of
a rhythmic mystic sound to attain bliss
and wisdom and enjoy the real happiness.
It is a method for acquainting our mind
with good feature. There is limitless power
in the human mind. Those who can
consolidate this power and make it onepointed become renowned for their genius
in the world. If one is not able to
concentrate this power, it is wasted. To be
successful in the battle of life, search for
the infinite storehouse of power
accumulated in you. With great seal and
determined perseverance, you can once
bring your mind under control; and. there
will be nothing that you cannot achieve.

Finally, I am coming to my new

mechanism of TRIKARANA
TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION (TTM).
It is a Spiritual Science and a simple
scientific technique of blending the

Naturally, the mind is extremely

restless and obstinate. It is very difficult to
restrain it from going in the direction it is
accustomed to it. Again, if the mind is

37

38

engaged in good thoughts, it will naturally

tends towards that direction and make
one's life sublime. You must realize finally
that you possess an infinite power within
the mind. Therefore, to direct the mind to
the proper path, you should observe the
following principles:
1.

Always keep the mind engaged in

noble thoughts

2.

Perform all jobs, big or small whatever

it may be with great care so that no
one will find fault with your work

3.

Look upon all people as your own

brothers and sisters; love all the lands
as your own motherland

4.

Have respect for all religions and

religiously unaffiliated people and
the society.

5.

Hold on to the knowledge that the

mind is your servant and you are the
master of your mind firmly. Do not let
the mind become easily excited.
39

6.

Do not give expression to any

weakness or sentimentality in the
mind and

7.

By thinking of the loveliness and

majesty of the Almighty and great
souls, the mind becomes pure, clear,
one-pointed and strong forever.

When your mind is peaceful, free from

all worries and mental discomforts,
certainly you will experience the true
happiness. If you train your mind to
become peaceful you will be happy all the
time, even in the most adverse conditions,
but if your mind is not peaceful then even if
you have the most pleasant external
conditions you will not be happy.
Therefore, it is very important to keep your
mind peaceful always by regular practice
of meditation. Asana or physical exercise
and Breathe exercises are the pre-steps to
clear the body and soul and to create an
ideal platform for the wandering mind to
carry out meditation. The essence of the
40

meditation is convergence in the forehead

just above the nose in between the
eyebrows and from there to the middle of
the brain at the base pituitary gland
located and behind this at back pineal
glands is situated. Therefore, one,
comfortably sitting at a quiet place, should
meditate without any interruption from
outside influences for Twenty (20) minutes
daily each in the morning and evening.
It will cause perfect functioning of
pituitary gland and pineal gland and
induce the thymus (mind) to secrete the
required output to kindle one's worldly
knowledge and wisdom besides providing
good health and peaceful mind. Above all,
it creates a 'Silent Inner Revolution', the
threefold unity for the wellbeing's of
humankind.
The benefits are boundless!

41

To say few,1)

Improving the daily performance by

increasing the mind power through
instigation of intuition

2)

Develop self confidence and enable

one to perform his duties all through
the day with rejuvenation

3)

Removes defective tendency, lack of

confidence and shows the path
towards success

4)

Help to have free flow of blood, breath,

sustain the general health, soul
strength, and provide mind peace,
happiness

5)

Remove all the stresses, strains that

confront human beings today, and
provide complete liberation from all
worries

6)

Bless everyone with total peace,

ultimate success, and joy in life
forever.
42

7)

Spreads compassion and helps the

humankind in attainment of WORLD
PEACE

Now I hope that it is my privilege to

sharing my wonderful experience with
fellow human beings and making them feel
the perfect physical health and profound
mental peace in this troublesome world.
All who have eyes to see and ears to hear
are requested to avail this great
opportunity not only for their personal
benefit but also for the welfare of
humanity as a whole. Therefore, I need
your full involvement and co-operation in
this joint pursuit so that I could impart
permanent happiness and joy in
everyone's life forever!
Before coming to the conclusion, I
wish to make clear that the intuition
potential is an important factor in human
life and my emphasis is to bring it to light
and give it a platform to enact a full play.
43

The compassion within a human being is

not visible to others. The synchronization
of the parts of the human body needs no
explanation. When a man experiences a
pain in his leg, that feeling of pain gives
rise to tears in his eyes. There is no enmity
among the parts of the human body. While
the soul departs from him, it leaves the
whole body behind silently to be consumed
by the soil.
But when it comes to the society you
could see competition, vengeance, anger
etc and the society is divided between the
rich and the poor, the powerful and the
weak, the beautiful and the ugly; the
oppressors and the oppressed.
Everywhere there are negative thoughts.
Why is this division and disparity? When
will this sorry state of affairs change? It is
a matter of fact that everyone is having
some kind of deficiency. I wish to ask one
question to all of you. Is there anyone who
is cent-percent perfect in this world? When
44

it is the fact that no one is perfect, why

everyone is blaming others and not
accepting and adopting the deficiency and
weakness of others in the society? In this
context, I request all of you to have it in
mind that the life, once completed, cannot
be brought back at any cost. Therefore,
everyone should understand this fact and
try to live with more compassion and love.
The compassion towards the human
beings should rise in every heart and it
should instigate the intuition to adjust and
adapt to the needs of common living,
education, religion, and peaceful
presentation of issues and refine man into
a livable and lovable social being. Let the
past be buried, I welcome you one and all to
come and join me to start a new beginning
with an understanding of my innovation.
A true and sincere faith in TTM, the
simple and modern scientific technique
and its regular practice would definitely
lift all of you to unexpected levels. Worldly
45

motives will seem paltry and fade away

and an earnest and ceaseless activity
involving sacrifice would embrace you. In
this earth, we could see death and life,
decay and growth, corruption and
purification existing together at every
point of time. In this paradox, the human
mind needs to shed its stress to find the
peace. Furthermore, in this stressdominated world, blending of the
'threefold unity' in a scientific manner is
necessary for the suffering masses to
attain Bliss and wisdom with total peace
and success in life forever.
I, therefore, once again invite all of
you, to join me, share the beautiful
moments that I have been experiencing for
the past thirty years and enjoy the life
gifted by the ALMIGHTY.

POWER OF THE MIND

Take up one thought. Make that one
thought for your life think of it, dream of
it, and live on that thought. Let the brain,
muscles, nerves, every part of your body,
be full of that thought, and just leave every
other thought alone. This is the way to
success. If we really want to be blessing,
and make others blessed, we must go
deeper and deeper.

worshipping Almighty, or in doing

anything, the stronger the power of
concentration, the better will that thing be
done. This is the one call, one knock, which
opens the gates of the nature, and lets out
floods of light.
How one has all the knowledge in the
world been gained but by the
concentration of the powers of the mind.
The world is ready to give up its secrets
if we only know how to knock, how to
give it the necessary blow. The strength
and force of the blow come through
concentration. There is no limit to the
power of the human mind. The more
concentrated it is, the more power is
brought to bear on one point; that is the
secret.

The more this power of concentration,

the more knowledge is acquired, because
this is the one and only method of
acquiring knowledge. Even the lowest
shoeblack, if he gives more concentration,
will black shoes better; the cook with
concentration will cook a meal all the
b et t er. I n m a king m oney , or in

The main difference between men and

the animals is the difference in their
power of concentration. All success in any
line of work is the result of this. The

47

48

difference in their power of concentration

also constitutes the difference between
man and man. The difference is in the
degree of concentration. The ordinary
human being wastes Ninety per cent of
thought force, and therefore he is
constantly committing blunders; the
trained man or mind never makes a
mistake.
So, to attain purity living in this life
shall we all go to the forest? What good
would it do? If the mind is not under
control, it is no use of living in a cave or
forest because the same mind will bring
all disturbances there. We will find
thousands and thousands of devils there
because all the devils are in the mind. If
the mind is under control, we can have
the cave or anywhere, wherever we are.
It is our own mental attitude, which
makes the world what it is for us. Our
thoughts make things beautiful and our
thoughts make things ugly. The whole
49

world is in our own minds. Learn to see

things in the proper light.
All the great prophets, saints, and
seers of the world what did they do? In
one span of life, they lived the whole life
of humanity to come to perfection. In one
life, they perfect themselves; they have
no thought for anything else, never live,
a moment for any other idea, and thus
the way shortened for them. This is
what is mean by concentration,
intensifying the power of assimilation,
thus shortening the time.
No force can be created; it can only be
directed. Therefore, we must learn to
control the grand powers that are already
in our hands and by will power make them
spiritual instead of merely animal. Thus, it
clearly seen that chastity is the correctstone of all morality and of all religion.
Free! We who for a moment cannot
govern our own minds, nay, cannot hold
50

our minds on a subject; focus it on a point to

the exclusion of everything else for a
moment! Yet we call ourselves free. Think
of it The mind uncontrolled and
unguided will drag us down, down, foreverrend us, kill us; and the mind controlled
and guided will save us, free us.
What work do you expect from men of
little hearts? Nothing can in this world!
You must have an iron will if you would
cross the ocean. You must be strong
enough to pierce mountains. Good and evil
thoughts are each a potent power, and they
fill the universe. As vibration continues,
so thought remains in the form of thought
until translated into action. For example,
force is latent in the man's arm until he
strikes a blow, when he translates it into
activity. We are the heirs of good and evil
thoughts. If we make ourselves pure
through the instruments of good thoughts,
these will enter us. The good soul will not
be receptive to evil thoughts.
51

In the history of humankind, you will

find that there come these Messengers and
that from their very birth their mission is
found and formed. The whole plan is
there, laid down; and you see them
swerving not one inch from that. Because
they come with a mission, they come with a
message, when they speak, each word is
direct, and it bursts like a bombshell.
What is in the world, unless it has the
power behind? What matters it what
language you speak, and how you arrange
your language? What matters it whether
you speak correct grammar or with fine
rhetoric? What matters it whether your
language is ornamental or not? The
question is whether you have anything to
give or not? It is a question of giving and
taking, and not listening.
Have you
anything to give? That is the first
question. If you have, then, give.
