Step-by-step to Salvation

Salvation or mukti, moksha is not a big deal. It can be attained now and here. There is nothing to do to attain to to this state; one has to just realize that he /she is already liberated and not bound by anybody or anything. This realization comes after one gets rid of all attachment (moha)- this ego 'i', me and mine. The moment this 'i' goes just as it appears in deep sleep everyday, or just as one is given anaesthesia in the case of a surgery, or as in nirvikalpa samadhi there is a sense of total salvation. This salvation is not to be attained after death. It should come as a peaceful existence now and here. One should feel happy, joyful to be alone in deep meditation to experience this state of salvation, mukti. Such persons are always happy, nothing bothers them and they will peacefully exit after the assigned number of breaths and get promoted to pitru loka (where many a blessed souls wander as light particles in the atmosphere along with oxygen. Though the physical body is cast off, these blessed souls as photons can see their kith and kin and help them by wishing them well! This is the reason why we pay respects to our departed parents, kith and kin. 

   The path of salvation is just simple. The person desirous of a happy and peaceful old age and a joyful death should withdraw senses, in the senses, stop the outgoing tendencies of senses, eager to look at, taste, smell, touch, or hear. Then he/she should stop thinking of anything that does not concern him or her, desire things which do not give permanent happiness; should avoid all sensations and greed, desire for things that make one a slave craving for it more and more. Half the battle is won whe he or she is able to sit the whole day in one place without moving! Such people should desist eating when not hungry and going to bed when not feeling sleepy. What is more when one does not desire anything and feels happay and contented? This is like a person saying a firm 'no' to anything when offered.

   Ask yourself what do you want when everything is already is there with you. What do you take from here when you die? What did you bring when you came here? So give away everything when alive and be free. Salvation lies in giving up, not possessing. This is the secret of salvation. 

 But, are we ready for this? This is the problem.
