📿 *_Album name meaning:_* 📿 Ātma or the Ātman is the uncorrupted pure identity that enables the Sookshma sharira (Subtle body; soul) to function through our physical body. Jivātma is the individual soul that takes rebirth on Bhumi Loka (Earth) due to unfinished Karmas (deeds) from previous lifetime. Journey of each soul is different that's why we are all different as human beings. The soul in Vedic astrology is defined as Ātmakaraka. The default soul is the Sun ☀️. The sun represents the Supreme Consciousness (Brahman). But as individuals our souls got divided so we have different Graha (Planets) behaving as our Ātmakaraka. 🔁 Four types of Karma: 🔁 ↩️ _Saṁchita Karma:_ Saṁchita means piled together, accumulated, and dense. Saṁchita karma is the sum total of all actions one has performed in the past. ↩️ _Prārabdha Karma:_ Prārabdha means commenced, or undertaken. This is the portion of saṁchita karmas that one is destined to experience in the present life. The moment of birth is caused by the prārabdha karma which is revealed in the natal chart. This is the primary karma the Astrologers are able to analyze based on the position of the planets in the natal charts. ↩️ _Kriyamāṇa Karma:_ Kriyamāṇa means being done. Karmas based on our choices in this present life is planting seeds for what we will receive in the future. Most astrologers believe in destiny for the previous two types of karma, as they are the results created by your own completed past actions. Kriyamāṇa karma brings up the debate about destiny and amount of freewill an individual possesses. The results of a person’s present actions can be seen in Praśna. ↩️ _Āgama Karma:_ Āgama means coming, or approaching. Āgama karmas are the ones being created by our desires. If one desires an object, action or position strongly, then the desires of the mind will cause these karmas to come about in either the future of the present life or future lives. Muhūrta charts in Vedic astrology are used to create the best results of the actions one plans to undertake. 🐘 *_A little description of the album art:_* 🐘 The album art is the reference to Lord Ganesha/Ganapati; son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Lord Ganesha is the remover of difficulties. He is invoked before a Hindu ritual. You see his left tusk is broken, according to the story in Upodghata Pada in the Brahmanda Purana, Lord Parshuram, the sixth avatar of Vishnu, went to thank Lord Shiva for blessing him with the power to fight his enemy, Kartavirya Arjuna and some other kings. However, Lord Ganesha didn't allow him to meet Lord Shiva, claiming that His father was busy, and that He didn't want Parshuram to disturb Him. This made Parshuram enraged and He started fighting with Ganesha. When it looked like Ganesha was about to win, Parshuram threw His axe at Ganesha. Ganesha, however, didn't fight back because the axe was a gift from his father, Lord Shiva. He allowed the axe to hit Him and He received it with his left tusk which got chopped off and fell on the ground. 🌄 *_Song titles explained:_* 🌄 1️⃣ *Maya Shakti:* It means the power of illusion. We are all in illusion because out of ignorance (Avidya) we think of ourselves as just this body/mind (Jiva) but in reality we are all as one called as Brahman (Ultimate Reality) in Vedic Indian Philosophy. According to Advaita Vedānta philosophy the material realm i.e. the Universe is just an appearance in Brahman. Infact all is Brahman. ब्रह्म सत्यं जगन्मिथ्या जीवो ब्रह्मैव नापरः । अनेन वेद्यं सच्छास्त्रमिति वेदान्तडिण्डिमः ॥ २०॥ - Brahmajnanavalimala Verse 20 Translation: Brahman alone is real and this jagat (Universe) is mithyä (illusion/appearance only) and the jiva (Oneself) is non-different from Brahman (God/Ultimate Reality/Supreme Consciousness) 2️⃣ *Prema:* It means love in Sanskrit. 3️⃣ *Mukti:* It means freedom. In the Indian philosophical sense it refers to being free from the bondage of the cycle of birth and death; reincarnation. 4️⃣ *Avatara:* From Vedic theological perspective, the avatara is the incarnation of God in our material realm like Jesus and other holy saints. Mainly Avatara is used to refer to the ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu who came in different periods to earth to help sustain it. The tenth Avatara is yet to arrive to restore Dharma (Rightfulness) when the world will crumble down in the hands of crime, rape, murder, greed, lust, etc. 5️⃣ *Pralaya:* It refers to the final destruction of the Universe by Lord Shiva and another cycle of the Universe will continue. 6️⃣ *Ananda:* It refers to bliss. Not our regular happiness that we derive from material objects or other people but the ultimate happiness when one succeeds in overcoming the limited identification of body/mind and merging back to the Source. 🕉️ *_Additional information:_* 🕉️ In the album art you will see the being (the humanoid elephant) with the symbol 🕉️ (Om) on His left palm. "Om" refers to our three stages of consciousness. It has three letters in it = A + U + M 1) Our Waking State (A) 2) Our Dreaming State (U) 3) Our Deep Sleep State (M) But these three stages are temporary as none of them are permanent because we don't sleep, dream or go to deep sleep 24/7. What is it that makes us experience these three levels of bodily consciousness is Turiya, meaning the 4th. It is not the 4th stage of consciousness but it is our Original state of being which through the help of this physical body/mind helps us experience these three stages of life every single day. But yet we are none of it. So, the goal is to transcend the false ego (attachment with bodily identifications) and attain Moksha. It will take multiple lifetimes but with each spiritual practice we get closer to attaining Moksha (Final emancipation). When we go to deep sleep (the 3rd state of Om 🕉️), we experience a blankness and it is not an absence of experience. For this reason when we get up we say "I slept peacefully". What variety can there be in blankness? Likewise, in the state of deep sleep even the sinner and the saint and the average individual all become One, but deep sleep is only temporarily available to us so when we get back up we must continue the same level of harmony with fellow sentient beings. A person may say "My body, my choice" but the sentence itself becomes oxymoron. We can only relate to something which is other than our body; that which is in duality (Subject versus object). If the "body" is to be your choice, then the "I" must be separate from it. Like a cloth is separate from the body for example. So the "I" is separate from the body. "I" is the Pure Consciousness (Brahman) through which the jiva (Body self) is being experienced. "I" alone exists. The body must one day die. "I" does not die. It is the body that dies. The "I" (Brahman) can only be experienced without the ego (Ahamkara). Hence, The body is not our choice but an instrument to experience the material realm only. नाहं भूतगणो देहो नाहं चाक्षगणस्तथा। एतद्विलक्षणः कश्चिद्विचारः सोऽयमीदृशः।।13।। - Aparoksha Nubhuti Verse 13 Translated: _I am neither the body, a combination of the (five) elements (of matter), nor am I an aggregate of the senses; I am something different from these. This is the way of that Vichara (Thought process used in Self-Enquiry)_ This body has its origin in insentient matter and as such it is devoid of consciousness. If I am the body, I should be unconscious; but by no means am I so. Therefore I cannot be the body. We are made up of the five elements (Air, fire, water, earth, ether). This is only useful in studying Vedic astrology but when it comes in studying Vedic philosophy one must transcend these five elements as they are non-sentient. In early Christianity these same teachings can be found. The best example I can give is from the Gospel of Thomas (Non-canonical Gospel; gnostic teachings of Jesus). Gnostic (Greek word) in Vedic philosophical sense means the enquiry into the self. To know who we really are. Jesus said: _"Recognize what is in front of you, and what is hidden from you will be revealed. There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed."_ - Gospel of Thomas, Logos 5 Explained: To "recognize what is in front of you" is to see that all that which can be experienced through the five senses are appearance in Pure Consciousness (Brahman) only and they are unreal in themselves. "The hidden to be revealed" means all that we experience in the universe are limited by man made identifications only: Names, Forms and Actions. By transcending these man made identifications we recognise that other fellow sentient beings are Brahman itself but superimposed by man made identifications. Therefore Jesus said "There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed". Brahman means Existence Consciousness Bliss aka Pure Consciousness. And because of these identifications we face problems like racism (bodily identifications) and other forms of hatred which are rooted only in Ignorance and Ego.
