Arsheya Siddhatha Krishna "Vishvamitra"
Preface
About Arsheya Siddhartha Krishna:
By Pt. Soma Datta Parashara, New Delhi
Dear Child
of the Immortal Being,
Arsheya
Siddhartha Krishna "Vishvamitra" had been studying Advaita Vedanta
Philosophy for the last 12 years with H.H. Paramadarsha Mahamandaleshwara 108 Swami Vidyananda Giri Ji
Maharaj Vedanta-Sarvadarshanacharya, (10th Peethadhishvara of Shri Kailas Ashram Brahma Vidya Peetham, Rishikesh, Uttaranchal), a
well-known scholar of Prasthana-Traya (10 Upanishads, Shrimad-Bhagavad-Gita and
Brahma-sutram, with the commentaries of Shri JagadGuru Bhagavan Adi
Shankaracharya). Apart from this, his father Acharya Prabhuji, who is also a
great scholar in the field of Advaita Vedanta, Western Philosophies and French
Literature, is providing him step by step guiding to penetrate in to the Mystical Depths of
the Vedas and the Upanishads.
Apart from studying Prasthana Traya Bhashyas from these two grate masters in a traditional way, he has also studied other Darshanas (Philosophies, Like Yoga, Sankhya, Mimamsa, etc.), Ancient Vedic Grammar (Nirukta) and is at present mastering the Vyakarana Mahabhashya on Ashtadhyayi by Bhagavan Patanjali.
At present he is working in the field of Rig-veda. He is also writing the following titles:
Rig-veda, A Sanskrit commentary of selected Hymns. In this he is trying to give a spiritual interpretation of the most ancient book. The interpretation contains many quotations from the Vedas, Upanishads, Shrimad-Bhagavad-Gita, Brahma-Sutras and Shankaracharya's commentary on these classical texts, to prove the views of the Author.
Ashtadhyayi of Panini, A Sanskrit commentary called "Lalita-Vritti" (This book would be published very soon from "Kailas Ashram BrahmaVidya Publications, Rishikesh")
Nirukta by Yaska, A Hindi commentary based on Durga Acharya's Sanskrit Commentary
I once asked him, "What are you doing now-a-days?" His answer was as follows:
[I would also use his answer as an introduction to this website, because it tries to give us a clear view of his Philosophical System of the Vedas, which he is still forming with his deep contemplations in to Vedas.]
Om Shri Veda-Purushaya Namah Om
OM Idam nama rishibhyah purvajebhyah purvebhyah pathikritdbhyah OM
(My salutation and prostration to the Vedic Rishis, who are our ancestors and have found the path of self-realization)
Dear Atman Soma Datta Ji,
Harih Om,
As I have been commanded by my master and teacher Prabhuji to work in the field of Vedism for the rest of my life, I had been thoroughly dedicating all of my time in the studies and contemplation of/in the Vedas with Prabhuji, as well as personally. At present I'm trying to make some conclusions, with as much as I have studied till now in the last 12 years. I think, some of the conclusion would also help our dearest friends to understand Vedism better.
For deduction and understanding the Vedic views, as taught in Rig-veda, Sama-veda, Yajurveda and Atharva-veda, we accept the following Veda-based scriptures, Upanishads, Shrimad-bhagavad-gita and Brahmasutra, all the three along with the commentary of Bhagavan Shri Shankaracharya. These let us study the shining sun of knowledge, in the form of Vedas, from the nearest possible point, as these indeed are historically the earliest available documents to understand the Great Mentality of the Holy Vedic Seers (Prophets), to which the Supreme Truth was revealed in the dawn of this human civilization, for humanity's prosperity, wealth, happiness, peace, growth and well-being, on the worldly and spiritual level and on every other possible level.
As the Vedas state themselves, "he who avoids his best friend, the Vedas, is the most unfortunate person, whatever is heard by him is of no use, because he would never know the way of good action." i.e. he would always act as an evil, which would end in to his own destruction, and in the end in to the destruction of humanity. Today's world and it's problems are a good example.
Shankaracharya states, "the Veda is the greatest well-wisher, even greater than thousands of mothers and fathers".
You may know, that Vedism is centered around the God manifested in the form of the Sun. From the ancient times in the History, the outer sun has been the object of outer worship and the Supreme God, residing in and above sun, has been meant on the inner level by that outer worship. Let us not forget that worship is an outer action and it always needs an outer object. That is why, sun, the Highest and the Mightiest manifestation of the Supreme, has been accepted as an object of worship. Though even while worshipping him, not the physical sun was meant on the mental plane, but the Supreme Self, which is the sun of this physical sun.
If seen from a deeper eye of contemplation, one may observe that nothing in this universe is more similar to God than the sun. It is the only thing, which can be stated as the direct manifestation of the Supreme. Many religions would agree with it. Sun is the immense and inexhaustible source of energy, power, light and life, on spiritual and physical levels. He is Savita (the creator), Pushan (the bearer and the one who nourishes) and Rudra (the destroyer), in the Vedic terms. There are many other terms used for him in the Vedas, for to reveal his divine and physical extraordinary qualities.
This religion was once up on a time spread all over the world. Now, the ancient remnants of the sun-temples in India, Egypt, Greece and South America are merely tourist attractions.
At present, we, here, are trying to rediscover this lost civilization, spiritual culture, a way of Supreme Realization, an alternative way of life, by trying to penetrate in to the deepest possible depth of the earliest documents of the Human History, The Vedas.
After studying much of Hinduism, and as well as other religions with Prabhuji, I came across that till now Vedism seems to me to be the most deepest, the most logical from every point of view, physical, mental or spiritual, or any other. It is freeing us from worldly sorrows, worldly problems, by telling us alternative life styles, on worldly levels, as well as spiritual levels. The best thing is that if understood well, it doesn't clash with any other religion and it tells us to look at everybody with a friendly eye, for we all are the sons of that Supreme Immortal Being, as the Vedas tell us.
In a precise, it doesn't only teach us about absolutely something out of this world, but also something existing in this world, and existing in everything.
It's ethical and spiritual values are very deep, deep to the greatest extent, and a person can meditate upon them for the rest of his life, and still everyday he would discover a new pearl in this vast see of knowledge. Each and every pearl would prove its value for the whole world, for a single human and for everybody.
Dear Atman, let us form a group of us brothers and sisters, not an outer one, there are many such existing without any use, but an inner one, that we may be able to communicate with each other and overcome all the boundaries of space, time, locality, race, religion and people, and become free in a true significance, and more than that, ONE; only a Human and nothing else.
After reading the Vedas, we start to ask ourselves, are we really able to be included in the category of Humans? Vedas teach us much, but for the first they teach us to be a perfect human, and then other divine properties. But in the beginning only a HUMAN, a Human which understands the feeling of everything next to him. This is the fist stepping stone for self-realization. How to think about God-realization in a society of animals?
The Vedas highly recommends the unity of our world. And indeed, this is the only way of peace in this restless world of today.
As the Vedas tell us to pray, Om Shantih Shantih Shantih (Om peace! peace! peace!!!).Jayantu Vedah, Jayatu Bharatam,
Siddhartha Krishna
About this Web-site:
This website tries to show the Mystical, Philosophical, Religious, Psychological and other scientific contents in the Oldest Documents of our Human Race, called the Vedas.
This is being shown by listing quotations from these Holy Books sorted according to the mentioned Subjects. The translation-work of the Mantras has been done by Arsheya Siddhartha Krishna Ji himself.
Before the English translation of every Mantra (Hymn), the name of the Holy Divine Rishi (Seer, Prophet) is written, to whom the Mantra was revealed by the Divine Rays of the Sun of Knowledge (Supreme Truth, Supreme Existence, Supreme Knowledge, Eternal and Purusha in the Vedic terms).
The Holy
Vedas are the Purest utterances of The Supreme God, who is Purest among all, and
they were revealed to the Holy Seers, who attained the highest possible state of
Purity, by great austerity (for outer purification) and deep meditation (for
inner purification). Therefore, we would request every reader to be mentally and
physically pure, at least when he reads these direct words uttered in the Purest
language of Gods (Deva-vani Sanskrit) by the Supreme God (Brahman) Himself in
the beginning of this creation, for the prosperity and peace of the entire
world. Every person, who has faith in the Vedas and accepts them to be the well-wisher
of Humanity, may obey this request. However, to him, who has no faith in this
statement, we would request not to enter this Web-site. It would be better for
his own sake that he serfs ahead.
Therefore:
1. Please don't read this site wearing shoes or anything made out of leather,
2. Please don't read this site until you have not taken bath once a day,
3. Please don't read this site while eating something,
4. Please don't read this site if you are a nonvegetarian.
May the Holy Vedas bestow Spiritual Development to you all,
Peace to the world,
With Loving Regards,
Pt. Soma Datta Parashar, New Delhi
