Gurumaharaj was giving an intersting talk on Ecosystem and Vastu Shastra. While discussing these he suddenly referred to the archaeological relics of Mehrgarh in Pakistan. Here is the following excerpt :
Gurumaharaj : However, we were talking about Harappan civilisation. The large city like Mahenjo Daro was not constructed follwing the rules laid down in Vastu Shastra. Had the planners of such cities followed Vastu Shastra, then those cities would not have come to ruins at one time. Do the modern men follow that ancient science of construction and architecture when they build new big cities? No, they don’t. The knowledge of that science is no longer available to them. Even in India there is none to teach the knowledge of Vastu Shastra! So, there is no scope for other countries to master this ancient science. After the era of Mahabharata or the time after Lord Sri Krishna Vastu Shastra was relegated to the backgound (It is inferred because it is not discussed in any other Puranas). There was no reference to it after that. After such a long period a kind of curiosity was aroused among people. But there is no teacher of this ancient science. These days the Indians are learning Vastu Shastra from the foreigners. Think of the possibilities of the truths of this science being twisted and distorted at the hands of such persons!
The world has to master all the ancient secret Vidyas sitting at the feet of the revered Indian Rishis. What will the modern scientists with higher consciousness level discover? He will progress further in the direction of the Truth Absolute. What else shall they do? In the ‘ ballroom of Lord Vishnu’ all the precious gemstones are strewn on the floor. He who can dare to take a plunge into the depth of his own consciousness and discover them will be considered to be the hero! Following this process all the scientific truths, theories and Mantras were discovered. One needs to dive into the depth of one’s being and get absorbed in his consciousness. This state of absolute absorption into one’s consciousness unifies the external nature with the inner universe. When this happens, all the secrets of the universe get unravelled to the Sadhak.
Maharshi Patanjali suggests that practising Prajatna Shaithilyam ( Elimination of any unnecessary effort ) and Ananta Samapatti ( Endless contemplation) are the keys to all the Vidyas. When a Sadhak masters them, all the Vidyas of the universe are revealed to them. When the Sadhak penetrates the Ajna Chakra, he becomes a Rishi! If any scientist comes in close contact with a Sadguru, he can attain that state of higher consciousness level under his guidance. If someone does not follow the right method of Sadhana, the upward movement of the consciousness stops instantly. And then it rushes downward. This can spell any disaster. Due to such spiritual degradation of the influential persons of the society, the society suffers badly. Normally after rising a little when the Kulakundalini goes downward the Sadhak experiences tremendous impulses of sex and anger. If the Kundalini rises upto a certain level in case of the powerful Sadhaks and then moves downward, it causes negative events of even larger proportions . As a consequence, the innocent people of the society suffer terribly. Then some great man or Avatar takes birth in order to bring those Sadhaks back to the right path!
There are many such mysteries on earth.We were talking about ancient history and Vastu Shastra. The Indus civilisation was not only confined to the valley of Indus river but it spread farther.River Saraswati flowed through that region. In the Vedas this river has been referred to on a few occasions. River Saraswati was fed by the meltwater of the snowy regions of the Himalayas. So, water was available in this river all year round. The deserts of present times were places of rich vegetation long back. The people of this region were called the Saraswat. The Harappan civilisation was ruled by the Saraswat. Actually it was the Kol dynasty.
The Aryan, Dravidian and Kol dynasty blossomed together in India. Lord Ramachandra united these three civilisations. Due to the frequent Muslim invasions the available link to the ancient Indian history was lost. They destroyed all the ancient texts. Otherwise it would become easier for the historians to unearth those missing links that could shed light on the unknown parts of ancient Indian history. The Englishmen came to our country and plundered it. But unlike the Muslim invaders they preserved the ancient texts.
However, I can assure that historical facts can never be changed. Everything exists in the nature. Past events exist with the present course of events. Any event of past, present and future can be seen by the persons worthy of such psychic ability. Time, Place and Action play a crucial role. In proper time and environment the truths of the past are revealed to such persons. When they condescendingly disclose them to the common people, they get to know about the authentic historical realities.
