| The Holy text Merutantra defines the origin of the word ‘Hindu’ as – Hinan Gunan Drushyati iti Hinduhu’; meaning – one who destroys the lower and inferior spiritual vibrations, also known as Raja-Tama components, is a Hindu.
According to the science of Spirituality, the entire Universe is made up of 3 subtle basic components – Sattva, Raja and Tama. Sattva is the component that represents spiritual purity and knowledge; Raja represents action, while Tama represents ignorance and inertia. The subtle vibrations emanating from any activity or thought (seen or unseen) are dependent on the predominant subtle basic component they are comprised of. One may be born to a Hindu family but that does not make one Hindu. A Hindu is a person who seeks spiritual growth and a spiritually purer way of life. A Hindu is not ethnocentric and sectarian, but is in fact universal in outlook. A Hindu is a person who makes choices in life based on enhancing the spiritual purity or sattvikta in his life. He or she is one who avoids and refrains from doing anything that emanates Raja-Tama vibrations including any physical, verbal and mental activities that are associated with it. It is for this reason that Hindu Dharma and Spirituality are recognised as one and the same. Regular spiritual practice based on universal spiritual laws brings about an increase in the spiritual purity in people and in the environment. When there is an increase in the spiritual purity in the world, peace and prosperity is found in abundance. The objective of Maharshi Adhyatma Vishwavidyalay is to increase the spiritual purity in people, facilitate the spiritual progress of seekers and the spread of Spirituality (Hindu Dharma) throughout the world. The students of the Maharshi Adhyatma Vishwavidyalay are called ‘seekers’. For more information, please visit : https://www.spiritual.university/ |
