What is the World's most powerful prayer for Self Realization?




Satya


Atma Jnanam


Answer
Om Namo NarayaNaya, Om Namoh Bhagavateh Vasudevayah, Om Namah Shivaya and the Gayatri mantra are the most sacred prayers for self realization and liberation. The nature of the ParaBrahma, Supreme God consciousness and the methods to attain Self Realization are vividly described in Yoga Vasistha book.

[Vasistha to Rama:]
When the mind is at peace and the heart leaps to the supreme truth, when all the disturbing thought-waves in the mind-stuff have subsided and there is unbroken flow of peace and the heart is filled with the bliss of the absolute, when thus the truth has been seen in the heart, then this very world becomes an abode of bliss. (II:12)

One of the greatest spiritual classics ever recorded, the Yoga Vasistha is a mind blowing account of a detailed conversation between Sri Rama and his Spiritual teacher Vasistha Maharshi. The book goes into great detail surrounding the subtle intricacies of the mind, unraveling the multitude of layers to our very existence along the way.

The worldly-inclined cling to sensual objects; but the longing after the extraordinary enjoyment of spiritual bliss is only through previous efforts of Self Inquiry. Therefore one should destroy Ignorance, which is the source of dangers and all kinds of pains.

Should one aspire for the supreme Brahmic Seat, he should previously have killed out all desires, cravings and ego in his mind. Is not grain obtained, only after previously ploughing the field on this firm earth.

Those who are acute enough to always discern the unreality of this universe will, like king Janaka, cognize through their subtle intelligence the non- dual Pararnartha (Reality) at the proper time.
When attraction and repulsion (towards objects) become of the nature of the mind (and commingle with it), it alone is bondage and nothing else. Having: avoided all desires and pains arising through the ripened love and hatred towards objects, may you be immovable, devoid of attrac tion or repulsion towards them.

Dispassion joined with the knowledge of unity, melts down the substance of the mind and confers the best and highest state of happiness and rests in the Supreme Self. Now Rama, reflect and meditate on the Self like King Janaka and attain Atma Jnanam (Self Knowledge) and Self Realization.
