Who Were You Before Birth? Can You Return to That State?| பிறப்பதற்கு முன் நீங்கள் யாராக இருந்தீர்கள்? மீண்டும் அந்த நிலையை அடைய முடியுமா?

In the 24th Velvi discourse (2013 - 2014)  Gurumahan explains that Shiva and Vishnu are not separate but different expressions of the same Supreme Reality, just as all religions ultimately point to one Divine Truth. Through meditation, he guides seekers on a reverse journey beyond the body, breath, mind, and intellect to rediscover their origin. This journey traces life back through birth, nature, the elements, the sun, Pranava (Om), and finally to the Arutperunjothi, the Primordial Source. Realizing this origin reveals that every being is a manifestation of the same Divine Light. When one merges with that Light, all divisions of religion, caste, gender, wealth, and status disappear. One sees only love, wisdom, bliss, peace, and the One Divine in all. This is the realization expressed as "One Humanity, One Light," a universal vision that Gurumahan says Bharat is destined to share with the world.

The Philosophical Reconciliation of Shiva and Vishnu

God is not in what is seen, but in what is heard...
Because the earthly state has manifested, that very universe has expanded infinitely as this physical body, the sky itself expanding as the earth. Therefore, that which exists as this earthly matter is Arangarajan. Thus, Shaivism (Shiva) and Vaishnavism (Vishnu) are not different. If it is in the sky, it is called Shiva, and when it pervades the earth, it flourishes as Vaishnavism, which is Vishnu. That is why the consciousness that transcends all these religions is self-awareness, family awareness, social awareness, religious awareness, national awareness, and the divine consciousness that transcends all of these. This Bharata land (India) is a wonderful land that revealed this divine consciousness to the world.

Therefore, they guided that divine consciousness through devotion, action, and knowledge as Bhakti Yoga, Karma Yoga, and Jnana Yoga. So, let us remain silent for just one minute to realize things exactly as they are. Let us transcend, look inward, and move towards God.

The Transition into Silent Meditation
Relax your body well. Rest deeply from your feet to your head. Close your eyes gently and withdraw your five senses.

By keeping my body still, I have brought my body under my control. I keep my body motionless. The body is in my control. I direct the body. Now, I direct my mind through my breath. Now, I inhale. I hold my breath for a moment. I exhale. I am in peace now. Inhale. Hold. Exhale. Breathless peace. Inhale. Hold. Exhale. Peace. Inhale. Hold. Exhale. Peace. Inhale. Hold. Exhale. Peace. Inhale. Hold. Exhale. Peace. Inhale. Hold. Exhale. Peace. Peace.

The "Reverse Journey" of the Soul
I direct my breath. Just as I direct my body, I direct my breath too. The body is my possession. The breath also comes from within me. I inhale this very breath. I exhale the breath myself. Thus, I am the breath. Thus, I am the life force transcending the body. I am life. After coming out of my mother's womb, it was my own life force that inhaled and exhaled this breath. When I was in my mother's womb, I existed as life. At that time, I did not direct my breath. I existed as life. Motionless, without breath or speech, I existed as life. I was life in my mother's womb. Before coming to my mother's womb, I was my father's life-cell. I was my father's life-cell. I was a luminous life-cell, my father's life-cell.

Before becoming my father's life-cell, the food consumed by my father underwent various transformations and became the life-cell of semen. Thus, from my father's life-cell, I was the life of plants; from that seed state, in a state transcending body, mind, and breath, I was a seed in plants as a luminous soul. Inside the seed, I was the seed, a luminous atom. Before plants came upon this earth, since these plants grow due to rain, prior to these plants, I was the rainwater. I existed as life in the rain as that very life-water. Surrounded by rain clouds, and through the movement of the sun and the moon, it comes as rain. Before the rain, I was a luminous atom among the clouds. Now, I exist as an atom that came from the sun, as solar energy. I exist as a life-atom that illuminates the sun.

Merging with the Supreme Light
Transcending even the sun, beyond, far beyond the sun in this universe, I existed omnipresently as Pranava. I shone as the cosmic sound of Om (Omkara). This light, this atom, emerged from that supreme light of vast grace (Arutperunjothi, Paranjothi) through a great explosion. Thus, by the unique and grand mercy of that Arutperunjothi, I appeared in this universe as a luminous soul.

Thus, transcending everything, transcending the physical body, the subtle body, the intellectual body, transcending light, transcending sound as the primordial with the primordial, I unite myself with that primordial source. I attune myself with the primordial. I unite myself with the primordial and the grace of that primordial source. You are now divine. You are now Arutperunjothi (the vast grace light). You are now a light emerged from the self-effulgent light (Swayam Jyoti). You are Paramjyoti (supreme light) emerged from the supreme light, a light within light. You are Aruljyoti (grace light) emerged from that supreme grace energy. You are Shivajyoti, existing as Shiva, in which everything dissolves. You yourself are Jnanajyoti (light of wisdom). You are the light that flourished as a light within light. You are divinity emerged from divinity. Merge yourself into this very divinity. 

The Declaration of "One Humanity, One Light"

In that state, Everything that functions through this body is divine. If your thoughts become divine, your words and actions become divine. Oh divine beings, we are all those divine ones. The Guru knows this through his wisdom. He conveys this to the people who do not know. We are all one. One God. We are all of that same divine lineage. That is why they said, "One humanity, one Light" (Ondre Kulam, Oruvane Devan/Jyothi). All religions express this single truth in various ways. In the times to come, it is this Bharata (India) that will reveal this truth to all humanity of the world.

Therefore, when you are united as light with light, everything you see is filled with light. Everything is filled with love. Everything is filled with knowledge. Everything is filled with energy. Everything is filled with bliss. Everything is filled with beauty. Everything is filled with peace. You, who emerged from peace, have returned to this peace. May bliss spread across the entire universe, and let peace prevail. Let peace prevail. Long live this Bharata, which reveals this philosophical and meditative wisdom to the world. Long live the people of Bharata.

The Dissolution of All Dualities and Final Blessings
You who have participated in this 24th Cosmic Philosophical Meditation Yajna (Tapa Velvi) have now become light. My dear ones, look at everyone from this light. Everyone is of light. Who is poor or rich among them? In this light, there is no male or female. There is no high or low. That light is within everything—aquatic life, plants, reptiles, birds, and walking creatures. Therefore, this philosophy of light will henceforth spread throughout the world. These light-filled people will guide the world from now on. In this state, whatever you think will happen exactly as you wish. Complete blessings for all your prayers and wishes to be fulfilled.

Let Wisdom Flourish!
Let Peace Prevail!
Let us protect Mother earth!
Let us protect the Universe!
