Pancha Tatwa
:
the five carrying elements (prana)
of the senses which connect the
Chitta (the crudest part
of the
mind) to the external
world and internal organs through the nervous system.
Parama Purusa
(Beyond Purusa): "Purusa" means the material visible universe and those parts of the universe
which are not in
Pure
Consciousness. "Parama" means "beyond." So Parama Purusa
refers to the nucleus of the universe (God).
Paravipras
:
true leaders.
They are those
Elected Ones who
have gone through many lifetimes and through struggle, have awakened
their spiritual forces (). They long to establish a just environment (),
are ready to sacrifice
-- not being self-centered, to be humble and sacrifice all for this
ideal (),
and use all their spiritual powers to do it. They surrender
themselves and the result of their actions to the Lord and so become
surrendered and submissive ones (). They long for the good of the whole universe and create a universal
outlook ().
With these qualities and through their struggles,
they also create the Shudra (laborer) characteristics. That is, they
will assume physical work if it is necessary to work like a laborer. They will have leadership abilities of a Ksattriya (warrior), mental
abilities of a Vipra (intellectual), shrewdness of a businessman (Vaeshya),
and purity and incorruptibility of a Brahmin (true spiritualist).
Only such a person with these qualities is worthy to assume the
title of a Paravipra ().
It is these
true leaders, who
with their great intuitive abilities, will guide the successive
trends of the progress of the human society. They will establish the
Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth
to allow humans to progress toward the goal with ever-increasing
speed, and will help the whole universe to reach the goal (Pure
Consciousness), and they themselves will reach the goal also.
Perfect
Master (Sat-Guru,
Man-god): same as
Sat-Guru.
Prakrti
:
same as
creative force.
Prana
(Breath Of Life):
same as
raja guna or
energy. It is the
out-going force from the Soul.
It is the
life-force
and coordinating force in the universe. It carries many different
functions and is the base of any movement. Without it (raja
guna) there would have been no movement in the universe.
In truth it is the cause of the invocation of the
mind
(individually or universally) and thinking.
Pranamaya Kosha (Prana)
:
the Kosha corresponding to the second chakra.
Prasadam
:
food which has been prepared in a good state of
mind as
sacrifice
and is offered to God
(formless and invisible), and then offered to be consumed by those
who want to receive the blessings of such a food.
Prophets: those
chosen, inspired individuals who bring a message from
God to humanity. They are also called
Angels and
Avatars.
Psychic Body
(Astral Body): same as
astral body.
Pure
Consciousness (Christhood,
Christ-Consciousness,
Being Divine, State Of Enlightenment):
the state in which the power of the
three gunas over the consciousness is overcome, and the
consciousness in its pure form (pure
intuition) beyond the
mind (ego) is realized. Then the oneness with God
(universe) is complete, and there would be no
Maya left.
Purification:
means to become clean internally and externally, physically,
mentally, and spiritually: to avoid all things which alter this
process or to create an environment that will accelerate the
processes of purification.
Anything that stimulates the first three
chakras unnecessarily is
a hindrance toward purification, especially for those who have not
overcome the influences of the external world over themselves and
will be affected by it easily.
Purusa
:
manifested world.
Purusattma
:
same as
Parama Purusa
(the nucleus of the universe).
