Mantra Ishavasya Upanishad: Aum poornamadah poornamidam

Mantra Ishavasya Upanishad: Aum poornamadah poornamidam
🌷Aum poornamadah poornamidam
Mantra Ishavasya Upanishad🌷

ॐ पूर्णमदः पूर्णमिदं पूर्णात्पूर्णमुदच्यते ।
पूर्णस्य पूर्णमादाय पूर्णमेवावशिष्यते ॥
ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः ॥
Transliteration:
Aum poornamadah poornamidam poornaat poornamudachyate!
Poornasya poornamaadaaya poornamevaavashishṣyate!!
Om shaantih shaantih shaantihi!!
-IshaVasya Upanishad

Translation:
Aum 
That is Absoluteness ; 
This is Absoluteness, 
From the Absoluteness arrives the Absoluteness. 
When Absoluteness is subtracted from Absoluteness there remains Absoluteness only.
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti!!

Meaning:
*Aum poornamadah poornamidam poornaat poornamudachyate!*

Om is the pranava, sound of creation. Poorna means full or complete or absolute. That outer world is Poorna, full with Divine Consciousness; This inner world is also Poorna, full with Divine Consciousness. From Poorna, fullness of Divine Consciousness, Poorna world has manifested.

*Poornasya poornamaadaaya poornamevaavashishṣyate!!*

 If Poorna is taken away from Poorna, indeed Poorna remains.
If  Divine Consciousness is taken away from Divine consciousness indeed Divine Consciousness remains as it is Infinite and Non dual.

*Om Shanti Shanti Shanti!!*
Om, Peace, Peace, Peace.

Discussion:
 In Vedanta shastra “Adaha” (that) and 'Idam' (this) have very profound meanings. 
1.
Poornamadah Poornamidam Mantra in Creation:
Adaha corresponds to the Un-manifested Brahman who is always poornam, full with Divine Consciousness. Idam corresponds to the Manifested universe that is visible to us. What is visible is  infinite. What is invisible is also  infinite. 
If Poorna is taken away from Poorna, indeed Poorna remains. Out of the Infinite Being the Finite world has come, yet that being Infinite, there is no change in it; it still remains full, absolute and infinite, full of divine consciousness.
2.
Poornamadah Poornamidam
mantra in Yoga Kriya:
In higher stage of yoga kriya, Turiya Adaha corresponds to the Macrocosm  which is always poornam, full with divine 
consciousness. Idam corresponds to the Microcosm which is also filled with divine consciousness.

Creation in its last stage gets embedded with an  illusion of incompleteness or a delusion of incompleteness.
This is  based on the assumption that if  'I ' gets a certain things,  'I ' will become complete. So' I' goes on getting attachments.
An intrinsically complete 'I ' gets deluded  that it is incomplete and it assumes that it will become complete by acquiring things.

Yoga kriya destructs the ignorance and grants sublime spiritual wisdom. This shloka awakens the sense of Completeness or Poorna in oneself and elevates the mind and soul to a higher spiritual plane.
Sadhaka becomes Absolute with the Absolute and becomes complete with Poorna. 

3.Tagore's philosophy of Poorna:
Poorna is experienced only in absolute peace. Tagore's philosophy of Poorna or completeness is to become peaceful. Tagore used to search happiness in Nature, Humanity. He emphasized in finding the peace in natural surroundings.

Creation is merely , pleomorphism of that fundamental singularity. 
Ishavasya Upanishad defines *Completeness as an intrinsic state. Completeness is in Being. Incompleteness is wanting to become. Divine consciousness is
non-dual and infinite.This singularity of Consciousness  is simultaneously Conscious and Blissful*.

Shika chakra or Bindu chakra:Bindu visarga

Image
Shikha chakra or Bindu chakra: Bindu is a point at the back of the head where Brahmins grow their tuft of hair.  The Bindu chakra bestows physical and mental health, vitality and youthfulness, as it produces “the nectar of immortality” (Amrit). The 8th chakra Shikha or Bindu chakra is the doorway between the immortal soul and earth-bound personality. Often referred to as the soul chakra  it is the seat of divine love, spiritual compassion and spiritual selflessness. It is the most mysterious and remarkable energy centre in the human body. Opening your 8th chakra and stepping through the veil that separates your earthly self from your eternal soul will open your eyes to the vast space beyond the physical plane (Bayalu darshan)   Anatomically it is located where the bones of the back and sides of the skull meet (the occiput and the parietal). The direction of the stream of cosmic energy flowing into the Chakra can be seen quite clearly at this point....

It signifies the subconscious mind and it has the direct link to ultimate reality.  Location:  The Ajna chakra is located in the center of the forehead between the eyebrows.The location makes it a sacred spot where Hindus apply a tilak bindi to show reverence for it.

Ajna chakra at the top of the spine is connected directly to the bhrumadhya between the tw...
