Adhyatma Adesha

[jaiguru]

The Adhyatma Adesha concerning Brahman is this: -- "The devotee takes
for granted that the Mind can reach Brahman and constantly meditates
on Brahman, concentrates his mind on Him as the greatest Being.
Brahman manifests himself through the resolutions, memories etc. which
take place in the mind. He is the object of worship for all of us.

It is our duty to worship Brahman. It is our duty to worship Brahman
in the form of the self as 'Tadwan', that is, as one who ought to be
worshipped with devotion. If a man worships this Brahman as
'Sambhajaniya' (i.e. fit to be worshipped with devotion) and attains
realization of Him, people pray to that man in the same way as they
would pray to Brahman.

We learn from this episode that man has vision of Brahman when he
attains a divine nature. Brahman is light all over. His manifestation
is comparable to the flash of lightning. He controls everybody. It is
only by His will that man can attain victory in spiritual battle. It
is only by his mercy that one can see Him and hear words dropping off
His lips. It is through His power that one gets to know who He is.
(Kathopanishad II 3 II)
