Question on four types of Mukti

Shri Velukkudi Swamigalin Thiruppadhangalukku Adiyenin Kotana Koti Namaskarams

I read in a Visishtadvaitam book that, among two traditions of Visishtadvaitam, one tradition believes in gradation of Anandham of Jivas in Moksha and another does not believe in gradation.

Some books say that there is distinction without differences. Is it first of all possible that there is gradation in Mukti?

Also, in Muktikopanishad, Shri Rama says to Lord Hanuman that Kaivalya Mukti is common for all but based on the Sadhana one does, there is a gradation in Mukti and it is of 4 types viz Saloka, Saroopya, Samebhya and Sayujya Mukti.

I request Swamy to elaborate on Kaivalya Mukti, 4 types of Mukti explained by Shri Rama and what kind of Sadhana will lead to highest grade Anandham (Sayujya Mukti), for clarity of Adiyen.

Sarvam Shri Krishnaarpanamastu!

Sri:
As per adiyen’s remembrance Velukkudi Swamy said 3 types
KAmyArthi : Wish for material elevation
KaivailyArthi : Self loving
Bhagavan lAbhArthi : To be for him

This is not adiyen’s answer but recollecting points

Dhanyosmi Swamy

Thanks for providing response. However, Mukti itself means liberation and nothing to do with material elevation.

Further, this gradation is found in many books on Visishtadvaitam also. They say, among Tenkalai and Vadakalai tradition, one believes in gradation even in Moksha and another does not. Those are all from authenticated writers only.

So, awaiting response from Shri Velukkudi Swamy in this regard.

However, if Swamy feels this question cannot be addressed in public, kindly ignore Adiyen’s question.

Sarvam Shri Krishnaarpanamastu!

Sri:

“Mukti itself means liberation and nothing to do with material elevation.”
KAmyArthi is not a mukthAthmA Swamy. Its only for material benefits.

What is liberation from material world?

Becoming invisible and again visible is it? That’s not the point. We go beyond Tamas.

Tamasa paramO dhAthA Shanku Chakra GadhAdhara:

Na cha punar Avarthathey

Once we go to such a state we cannot get back.

But wait this is what adiyen found in WhatsApp day before and I do not endorse these views

By the way Srivaikuntam is the real Swargam as per Sanskrit definition. Never ending /long lastimg Anandam. One Sanskrit friend told me.

Going by that definition let’s read this post:

சொர்க்கம் என்றால் ஒன்று தானே என நினைக்கலாம். ஆனால், அங்கும் நான்கு வகை இருக்கிறது.

1.சொர்க்கத்தின் வாசலில் நுழைவதை ‘ஸாலோக்ய மோட்சம்’ என்பர்.

2.பின்னர் தெய்வம் குடியிருக்கும் வீட்டுக்குள் சென்று தெய்வத்தின் அருகில் போய் நிற்பது ‘ஸாமீப்ய மோட்சம்.

3.இதையடுத்து அத்தெய்வத்தை கண்கொட்டாமல் பார்த்து அப்படியே உருகி, அந்த உருவமாகவே மாறிவிடுவது ‘ஸாரூப்ய மோட்சம்’.

4. அந்த தெய்வத்துடன் ஒன்றி அதனுடன் கலந்து விடுவது ‘ஸாயுஜ்ய மோட்சம்’.

இவற்றையெல்லாம் பார்க்க வேண்டுமானால், இங்கே கொஞ்சமாவது புண்ணியம் செய்ய வேண்டும். நல்லதை மட்டுமே மனதில் நினைக்க வேண்டும். செய்த புண்ணியங்களுக்கேற்ப பலன் கிடைக்கும்.

ஓம் நமோ நாராயணா….

Ok. Let Adiyen give the explanations in one of the books written on “Moksham as per Visishtadvaitam”, TTD publications. These gradations are there even in Visishtadvaitam. These are mentioned even in some Sankalpam in Tirumala.

1. Saloka Mukti – being in same world of Lord
2. Sarupa Mukti – getting appearance as Lord
3. Samipa Mukti – being closer to Lord
4. Sayujya Mukti – enjoying same bliss as Lord

Sayujya Mukti is highest and in other types, there is no equality in enjoyment with Lord. Still, the Jiva may or may not know this. The author says, “One should aim highest grade of Mukti which is Sayujya Mukti”.

However, all 4 are liberated and have bliss which are not equal to each other.

Adiyen’s concern is, in case some one aims at Sayujya Mukti but attains Sarupa Mukti or Samipa Mukti, is it possible that the Jiva can continue the Sadhana in Vaikuntam itself and achieve Sayujya?

Again, if the question is sensitive, Swamy need not answer Adiyen’s question.

I have this sane question i second your question.

First of all i don’t believe in sAdhanA for moksham.

Ya yagena, na tapasa sats Krishna

The question i have is can these alterations occur in moksham?

I hope we can. That’s because we are not bound by any materialistic bondage that restricts us from the anubhavam.

Let’s meet in moksham & find out

on July 21, 2020

*Na yAgena na tapasA we can’t get him by yAgam or Tapas says Krishna

Its his effort not our effort

We may but it will take many janmAs by own efforts. Still it is because of his coming forward not our pure efforts.

So no sAdhanA can equal Krishna except Bhakthi.

So bhakthi roopApanna gyAnam

We are his servants only that can give moksham

VishishtAdvaitam prohibits pure nyAna mArga attainment says there is no such thing as pure NyAnam that discards bhakthi

Coming to devareer question avan edhu kuduthAlum ethukka vendiyadhu dhAn

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha,

Namaskaram Srinivasa Pranesh Swami,

The above posted question on 30-Aug’2017 reflects only 4types of Mukthi, but actually there are 5 types of Mukthi,

1) Saayujyam,
2) Saamyapatthi,
3) Saalokyam,
4) Saameepyam,
5) Saaroopyam.

Velukkudi Sri Krishnan Swami has Graced the ACTUAL answer about 5 types of Mukthi in today’s 20-Feb’2020 Enpani #1657 by saying as Dharma Sandehavil Oru Kelvi Vandhu Irundhadhu, adharkku bhadhil koorugiraen……??

????

Adiyen Swamy,

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha,

‘G’ Swami. Adiyen mentioned the same enpani 1657 in above thread that Velukkudi Swami has Graced answer, but adiyen’s emonji with simely face and Anjali hands are now ????, may  be some website error…I think it misleads.

 

Other posts as in below thread  are also like that, emonji’s are gone..
