Being, again manifests himself as all (names and forms) abiding in the state of

Meaning:
Mantra Pushpam
The set of seven
cantos (78 to 84) contained in the first chapter of the Taittiriya Aranyaka, is
popularly known as “Mantra Pushpam”. Aruna prasna contains a total of 130
cantos classified into 32 sections and Manta
Pushpam is the 22nd section. One of the most common occasions
where this is chanted is during a Pooja where it is offered as one of the
upacaraas to the Lord-a garland of mantras and so is given this common name of Mantra Pushpam.
Mantra Pushpam, conveys to us the highest spiritual significance of
water as the support for all and as the personification of all Divinities. If
one understands and worships water from this perspective, the person attains
all good in this birth and beyond. For such visionaries water does not appear
as a mere entity to cleanse the physical body and to quench the thirst but as
Divinity.
The section starts
with the benevolent statement that, one who (ya) is knowledgeable (veda) about the pusham of water (apaam),
becomes endowed with the flowers of life (pushpavaan
bhavati), good children (prajaavaan
bhavati), cattle and other domestic animals (pashumaan bhavati). Then an analysis pertaining to the relationship
of Water with other aspects of nature and universe is given For example, in the
case of Chandra (moon), it is believed that when the devas churned the ocean of
milk, out came Chandra as a flower (pushpam).
Lord Shiva placed this flower on His Head and so became Chandra Sekara! Because
Chandra was born from water, water is the abode (aayatanaam) for Chandra (chandramaa
va apaam aayatanam); also, the waters are generated by the coolness (sheetalam) of the moon and in this way,
the moon becomes the abode of water (aapo
vai chadramasa ayatanam). Similarly this kind of dual relationship exists
between water and fire (agni), wind (vaayu), sun (surya:), stars (nakshatra:),
clouds (parjanya:), and (samavatsara:). It is then concluded
that, for the one who meditates upon this Divine Water, this entire Universe
appears as a huge ship floating in Water and one who has this knowledge becomes
established as a stiraprajna! (yoopsu naavam pratishtitaam veda pratyeeva
tisthtati) and is hailed by all. (S. Yegnasubramanian.)

Who are you? Who am I? Where have I come from?

In you, in me, and everywhere-there is but One
Spirit. Your anger and impatience with me is in
Vain! (Anger coming from not wishing to accept
These truths). See the Self in all things, give up ignorance,
Which is the cause of “difference”.

Don’t try to be at war with, or “on the side of” enemies a friend,

The “Bhagavad Gita” and the “Sahasranama” should be sung;

The good, and wealth should be distributed among the poor.

Always reflect on the fact that wealth is not good because there
Is not the least bit of true happiness from the wealth; this is the

everywhere.
