Material for developing Intuition and Synthetic Understanding

In this post I will share authors whose works made a deep impact on my consciousness, sharpened my intuition and helped me to find deeper meaning within everything around me. 

Back them I always used to have a feeling of running on a treadmill with no one telling me about (inner) life beyond earning a livelihood and completing material desires and pleasures. There was intense fear that things were not moving in a right direction for me and I will have crisis of epic proportion. I had started reading some of these books from 2004 (in this lifetime). They have helped me to navigate my way towards peace and freedom in this dark (Kaliyuga) material age especially I can see chaos and depression at the start of 2021 all around me.

Based on these books and my own independent intuitive understanding, I have realized that some of us are facing the challenge of creating a totally new culture (Blavatsky calls the fifth sub-race leading to sixth root race while others term it differently) where we have to take a quantum leap into developing our cognitive abilities and by leaving behind selfishness be exclusively at the service of creation.

I will try to give a short summary of the material from my perspective and what I gained the most out of it.  

I wish those who are struggling take the next step forward in the evolution and experience peace.  


1. Authors pertaining to my thesis and my engineering education

Nathan Carter - His book visual group theory helped me to reach category theory later in my doctoral studies by sharpening my intuition and seeing deeper connections.

Alexander Grothendieck - His relative perspective of category theory helped me to solve one of the fundamental cornerstone problem of what is signal redundancy in my thesis. If one has functional analysis or signal processing background he/she can even take that further to formulate new sampling theorem. I have done this informally in my book and will post later. 

Micheal Leyton - His generative perspective through what he calls transfer helped me to see signal generation mechanism in a different light or to be more precise from an artist perspective and give a mathematical model to cause and effect relationship or in eastern teaching its the law of karma in a particular instance. Moreover today in 2021 his perspective of shape and geometry as memory is also shared by the biologist Rupert Sheldrake as I understand intuitively. 

Saunders Maclane - His mathematical rigor gave me confidence that abstract algebraic expressions even if seemingly intimidating have underlying geometric intuition and should not be feared.  

John Baez - One of his you-tube videos (John Baez Part 1 Physics in a Rut, Einstein, Picard, Braveheart) discussing informally with his student confirmed my deepest feelings that present science is stuck and we need something beyond the grasp of the greatest mathematicians and physicists in the mainstream science of today.  

S.M. Kay - His statistical signal processing books developed my intuition during my M.tech years 2005-2007. I wrote an e-mail to him to express my desire to do a PhD. with him and was shocked to find that he had no funding especially when all average joeys in the field had plently of funding. It also sparked both anger and curiosity within me to find the whole story secretly.  

Gilbert Strang - This famous teacher needs no mentioning but I was in illusion to think that everybody in MIT were like him. That illusion was of-course shattered and truth was revealed later.  

B.P Lathi - His undergraduate books are what one needs to intuitively know the subject of Signals and Sytems.

Richard Lyons - Understanding Digital Signal processing - Intuitive understanding of DSP and why it works.

Bartosz Milkewski - His category theory blog helped to sharpen my intuition immensely during my doctoral studies. 

Bob Coecke - I am most grateful to this physicist who reviewed my thesis in most unexpected and difficult circumstances. Had he not given his evaluation comments on thesis, there would have been no outer confirmation for what I knew inwardly to be correct in-spite of thousands of fake papers and citations from mainstream researchers in signal processing to be incorrect. He uses three phrases in different lines for the work - timely, truly interdisciplinary, original in a non-incremental fashion. This confirms that the path pointed out by so called mahatmas works if one is diligent enough and the work is small testimony of this fact. 

Tom Lienster - In one of the discussions amongst famous mathematicians of UK which included Robert Brown (yes the one who is famous for the pursuing stacks exchanges with Alexander Grothendieck) I peeped in to find that Lienster expressed his fear (his word disaster) when some of the mathematicians of University of Leicester were being sacked. It helped me to further corroborate my findings which I had secretly contemplated after the shock of S.M. kay as I mentioned earlier in the post. The forces of materialism and separation in this dark age are keeping the mathematicians and scientists in control via fear. Some like Alexander Grothendieck and David Bohm refused to give in to this fear and I can intuit that carrying their work further should be the mission of all those who value truth and freedom.    

Jenny Olive - The book "Maths Survival guide" was the first intuitive book I ever read in 2004 and for the first time in this lifetime it evoked inner response within me when I was struggling in Mumbai University to find intuition behind the higher mathematics and all the algebra that was forced upon me to be memorised for cracking exams since childhood

Derek Bok - The book universities in the market place made me understand how budget enhancement measures violate core values of higher education and harm universities ultimately affecting integrity and direction of research. Back then, this book was one of the reasons I decided to do a PhD. in my own country.

Thomas Calculus - Of-course this book along with Jenny Olive's reinforced the intuitive feeling that the algebraic equations have visual geometric representations and therefore intuitive connections across science and not some separate fragmented equations. 


2. Authors on Functional (Natural Foods as Medicine) and Preventive Medicine

Dr. Datis Kharrazian (DHSc, PhD, MSc, MT) -  Why do I still have thyroid symptoms ? When my lab tests are normal (A revolutionary breakthrough in understanding Hashimoto's disease and hypothyroidism)

The autoimmune Solution (Prevent and reverse the full spectrum of inflammatory symptoms and diseases) Amy Meyers - This book has become New York Best seller and its language is much easier for general public. Most of the material is taken from the research of Dr. Datis Kharrazian whose material is more academic I believe.

Anthony William - Medical Medium Life-Changing Foods-Hay House Publishing

These books are some modern examples of what D.K. has mentioned as functional medicine in the Alice Bailey Volumes. It also gives some hints on the manifestation of modern diseases (yes Cancer and Corona virus) and the direction for their possible elimination.


3. Authors on Philosophy, Metaphysics, Parapsychology, Occult Science

The Mahatma Letters to A.P. Sinnett and A.O. Hume - Inner wisdom and realizations of masters Morya and Koothoomi (Pythagoras was one of his previous lives it is said) who were the real hidden founders motivating their worldly disciples Blavatsky, Judge and Olcott, close to ascension living in physical bodies in then British ruled Northern India and Shigatse Tibet around 1875.

Helena Blavatsky -  Key to Theosophy, The Secret Doctrine: English translation of the Book of Dhyan (Meditation). Trying to express in English language the deeper realisations of greatest yogis of Tibet and earlier exalted beings since Atlantean civilizations through meditation. 

Alice A. Bailey - A Treatise on the Seven Rays (5 volumes)Discipleship in the new Age, Education in the new Age. Teachings of Master D.K (Djwal Khul) giving guidelines for chelas (disciples) and their work for the incoming modern Aquarian age.

Michael D. Robbins - This Disciple working with the Ashram of Djwal Khul has expanded further on Alice Bailey teachings. His works Rayology I,II describes the seven rays of Djwal Khul in a thorough way. The Volume VII – Infinitization of Selfhood is old Indian Advaidta Vedanta for the New Age.

Nicholas and Helena Roerich - Agni Yoga or combining four different Yogas of East especially for the Aquarian Age.

Kim Micheals - The Mystical Teachings of Jesus (The Ego-games of Personality). The ego-games channeled from Jesus helps to discern the pattern of these games in the whole of mankind on earth. The central message of this author was that Jesus was and is an example to follow, and it is a tragedy that mainstream Christianity has turned him into an idol to worship. If this Jesus was to guide modern disciples today what would he teach. My thesis is inwardly dedicated to real Jesus as I am not born in West so have no idea of the Jesus represented by mainstream Christianity. 

M.K. Gandhi - My experiments with Truth. Inner wisdom and realizations of the one whom Yogananda described as a political saint and Albert Einstein's famously said: 'Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth. '

Henry Steel Olcott - Olcott Diary Leaves - The true practical Story of Theosophical Movement directly from the heart of one of the founders and his challenges and failings to find way through attacks from forces of materialism.

Damodar Malavankar - Collected Writings. The inner thoughts of one of the chelas who succeeded amongst theosophist to be admitted into mystery school during that period as per Blavatsky. 

Cyril Scott -  The viewpoint of a chela and his group around Justin Moreward Haig in physical embodiment staying in London and Boston and their work for the future of British and American races.

David Anrias - The viewpoint of another chela and the group around Moreward Haig who also spent 7 years in the Nilgiris of India learning esoteric astrology with a rishi (saint or Master Jupiter) who was referred to as the old man of Nilgiris by Blavatsky.

Carlos Cardoso Aveline - A theosophist in Israel An independent lodge of Theosophists operating online. Very helpful for critical analysis of theosophy apart from worship of personalities if we leave out hatred for theosophists who made mistakes (for we all are in earth school !)

Wayne Peterson and Benjamin Creme - Experiences of an American Diplomat with Maitreya and masters of wisdom and other related works. Life story, struggles and experiences of two chelas who were guided at times by the world teacher.

Brian Weiss - Miracles Happen. A thrilling story of how past life regression can heal some of the deep phobias of present lifetime by one of the mainstream psychatrist.

Peter Mt Shasta - Life story of a chela of Master Saint Germain (Roger Bacon was one of his lives) and his struggles and experiences with Saint Germain and the work of trying to unite European races (What is today known as European Union).

Dolores Cannon - Her past life regression experiences with her clients corroborates some of the findings of Brian Weiss. 

Sri Aurobindo - His complete works and his writings on the mother and integral yoga revives the mystical way of Sri Krishna and old vendatism of Ancient India. His supramental consciousness is precisely the new intuitional race to manifest. Auroville was outward attempt of Mirra Alfassa to manifest human unity and sysnthesis for the new age.  

Roberto Assagioli - The inventer of Psychosynthesis and taking transpersonal psychology forward. He was guided by DK, more of which can be found on Kenneth Sorensen website.

Mark and Elizabeth Propepth - ". . . When capitalism is unjust it is the surest way to play into the hands of the Communists . . ." what better way than the above quote channelled from K-17 master on February 19, 1960, to know these disciples who were founders of the summit lighthouse.

Manly P. Hall - The secret teachings of all Ages. Interpretation of secret systems of philosophy existing in the ancient world, but forming the ageless truths of life and linking many of the earth's greatest thinkers.

P.D. OUSPENSKY - The Psychology of Man's possible evolution. The content combines teachings from Gurdjieff and Theosophy which the author calls fourth way to discuss the various fundamental states of consciousness along with associated centers of vibrations and how some of these teachings were taught in detail in various mystery schools of the ancient ages now lost to common masses after materialism and fragmentation set in through gradual degradation. 

Dr. Jose Luis Foglia - Homo Lux : How present intellectual development has unbalanced the functioning of both the hemispheres of the brain leading which is leading the Homo Sapiens towards possible extinction. The book suggests setting aside the fight for rights and instead becoming focused on our responsibilities and obligations towards creation.

Albert Einstein on Intuition

  Albert Einstein and Rabindranath Tagore In Berlin , Germany - Some selected quotes and thoughts of Albert Einstein on intuition - The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift. We will not solve the problems of the world from the same level of thinking we were at when we created them. More than anything else, this new century demands new thinking: We must change our materially based analyses of the world around us to include broader, more multidimensional perspectives.  I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.  The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery. There comes a leap in consciousness, call it Intuition or what you will, the solu

More on Synthesis

 Again we shall contemplate on a few more words on the wisdom of synthesis (navigating the "narrow razor-edged Path" between duality or the "noble middle path" of Buddha) from our beloved DK. However I wish to emphasize that Djwal Khul and Alice Bailey demonstrated practical (not just theoretically) synthesis. For instance Alice Bailey being born in the west was open enough to acknowledge and bring forth teachings from a far wiser eastern/oriental master Djwal Khul. She could both surrender herself (a difficult quality to develop for the western concrete mind with its overemphasis on freedom) and at the same time was careful enough to guard herself against foolish blind devotion (a vice of oriental masses). Another disciple who demonstrated practical synthesis was Blavatsky (synthesis of religions). She established Theosophical society headquarters in the west and soon shifted it to the east although she worked and died for the cause of theosophy in the west. One mo

What is a seed-thought ?

 One of my friends questioned me: What is a seed-thought ? This post attempts to throw some light with example, on the concept of a seed-thought. Here is how we define it: "A seed-thought is simply a thought-form or a phrase or symbolic words which conceal a fundamental truth and acts as a seed that sprouts in a contemplative meditation (meditation with a seed) revealing that truth." A Seed-thought being a (thought-)form, we need to look also the broader concept of "form as a symbol", of which a seed-thought is just an example. Earlier we tabulated so many example of trinities. "Purpose - Idea - Form" is one such trinity of symbol. What this means is that every symbol has three interpretations - as a from it is an expression of some underlying idea. This idea has behind it, in its turn, a deeper underlying purpose. These three interpretations of a symbol can be summarized as: 1. Exoteric interpretation:  Based on its objective utility and upon the nature o
