death ke pehle silence ... let me see ...If the person is unconscious or in coma then definitely .

But if conscious then..? Coma or a forced stillness is not silence. Underneath it, deep in the unconscious, the repressed mind goes on working...

OK I dont know how a person wud actually feel just before his death, whether there wud be silence & peace or a struggle .I guess it wud vary person to person. But there wud be chaos all around amongst the relatives and friends. Death is always mourned except in one tribe where its actually celebrated as liberation !

I think everybody born as a silence ,just intervals and intervals, gaps and gaps. Infinite emptiness we came with, unbounded emptiness we brought with us in life ,then we started collecting words..and thoughts.....I believe mind is nothing bt all the words or thoughts that we have accumulated.... silence is that which has always been with us, it is not an accumulation.....the problem is 99.9 % of people cant live without these accumulation..balance .1% of people can reach/feel/understand the real silence,we call them different names...😊

The mind is a mystery , summer 😊.The vision wud be his alone and can be considered as hallucination by others. Theres no way he wud be able to convince others about the vision. I think its enough if he can convince himself ! If he believes then thats what matters . The most difficult times are those when one is hovering b/w belief n non -belief.

Kriya yoga is supposed to be a very strong n effective way of attaining realisation. There was repeated ref to it in autobiography of a yogi by Sri Paramahansa Yogananda but he has no where mentioned the technique ...

I think it involves long hrs of meditation. That means- no thoughts !!

The visionary may have not attained full realisation then, but he was on the path. Full realisation wud follow in its own time.

A powerful concentration of the mind can create whatever it wants to see. Beleive in God , God appears and believe in Ghosts, Ghosts appear. I come to realise that even we ourselves are not unique; the Divine Force can always create another person exactly like us. In Kriya yoga the tongue is rolled backwards towards the roof of the mouth. It is claimed that it forms a bridge to link the psychic forces running along the spine to the chakras located in the head; some claim it stimulates the pitutary gland.

yes Angie I read about it too. he mentioned he gets special amrit from the roof of his mouth. There are some who can convert air to prana.

Certain special yoga science can also convert one matter to another eg rocks or even meat to vegtables. Some consider such activities as a distraction from the main goal.

The defence dept hopes to learn how to go without food n water as they feel it might come in useful for the personnel but if this babaji has achieved this ability due to spiritual practices I wonder how the army is going to make use of it. Cant see the army spiritual and killing enemies at the same time...unless the mahabharata is going to be repeated with Krishna's sermons..

Some deaths are very loud with lots of screaming and yelling.....in veda it saying death is an opportunity to be awake....I think every night we die a little death. we call it sleep.. it would be better to call it a little death... we disappear from the surface, we move into our innermost being. that time we don't know who am i. we forget all abt the world, and the relationship, and the people.... You die a small death, a tiny death..that time u feel noisy..!!? I think death is a great sleep, a great rest after the whole life..😊

I don't see how it should be otherwise. I guess the soul can be silent, but when I am in pain - I find that even my soul is swearing.

My theory - Speech is silver, silence is golden but noise is platinum. 😛---😲How?!!😊

I believe silence belongs to existence...all noise is ours or we can call it noisy mind...cos mind is a mess...😊
