Aesthetic Science Is To Receive & Give Joy

Aesthetic Science Is To Receive & Give Joy

How do multitudes of microcosms evolve? They evolve because Parama Purusha loves them, and the force of His intense love draws them towards Himself. If someone says, “No, I won't go“, that will not do. One will have to go, there is no other option. In supra-aesthetics, Parama Purusha has been ever-attracting all towards Himself. The difference between aesthetics and supra-aesthetics is vast indeed. All entities of the universe are mutually attracting all other entities. But Parama Purusha is attracting all entities by dint of His love for all, by dint of His personal relationship with all. Microcosms, no doubt, have the power of attraction, but their attraction is not as irresistible as the supra-aesthetic attraction. Unit beings try to attract, but their power of attraction is not all: pervasive. This is the crux of supra-aesthetic science., How does the Supreme attract jivas? Through inferences. Microcosms are acquainted with the world through these inferences (of sound, touch form, taste and smell). As far as your relationship with Parama Purusha is concerned, that inferential realisation or inferential bondage is not of the physical world, it is of the ectoplasmic world (of mind-stuff). When we look at the external world we stand and stare and simply marvel at the beautiful, divine manifestations. Similarly in our minds we can also enjoy beautiful, divine expressions ­ the inferential bliss that emanates from Parama Purusha.Nandana vijiana or aesthetic science proceeds along the pulsating wave movements of trough and crest. The quintessence of aesthetic science is to get joy and give joy . When the wavy movement at a certain stage of its progress is turned into linear movement, that is no longer aesthetic science, it becomes converted into supra-aesthetic science. What is this supra-aesthetic science known as mohana vijiana?
We are attracted to the lofty peaks of the Himalayas. But it is impossible for us to attract the Himalayas, because they are static, not mobile, whereas human beings are dynamic. That's why humanity reaches out to the Himalayas: People want to attract the mountains to themselves, but since this is impossible, they rush to the Himalayas.

Tanmatras emanate from both worlds, but physical tanmatras emanate from the physical world, not the psychic world. The smell that emanates from crude objects when they are pulverised is crude. Depending upon the degree of subtlety or crudity , we can distinguish between sweet-scented and foul-smelling things.

And when this sweet smell is there but we fail to locate the physical source of its emanation, that smell is called surabhi (aroma). The source of its emanation is beyond the range of sense organs. Whenever a person is deeply absorbed in the thought of Parama Purusha, he experiences this aroma.

When the aspirant enjoys this ectoplasmic aroma due to a good deal of mental concentration, he gets the same sort of aroma in the external world as well. Divinity draws the microcosms through waves of aroma. Your mind gives up all other objects and rushes headlong towards the Supreme. The aspirant deeply enjoys the blissful aroma and exclaims, “How sweet, how blissful this aroma is! But where does it come from? I can't locate its source.“ This is how the Supreme of supra-aesthetics is drawing you to Himself, through the inference of aroma. You too are running towards Him.
