Sat-Chit-Ananda (सत्-चित्-आन्द) सच्चिदानंद

What is Sat-Chit-Ananda? I was thinking and needed some answers. I googled and found these articles.

Sat-Chit-Ananda





Sat-Chit-Ananda is a triple consciousness. Sat is existence, Chit is consciousness and Ananda is bliss. You can separate them if you want to and, at the same time, you can take them as one. If one achieves Existence, then inside Existence he has Consciousness itself. And if one has Consciousness, then Bliss is there. It is like an apartment or plot of land. You can give the plot of land one name or, if you want to divide it, each part of the plot can be called by a different name. But the reality of one is bound to be found in the other. They complement one another. So you can either separate them or keep them as one.



Sat-Chit-Ananda is the triple consciousness on the highest plane, and that plane is for the absolutely chosen few. To reach Sat-Chit-Ananda is a most difficult thing. Hardly twenty or thirty Masters have reached it and stayed at that plane, and hardly one or two can embody it. Some Masters have reached that plane and immediately came down because it was too high for them. It is much easier for people to reach the illumined mind or the Supermind, but Sat-Chit-Ananda is absolutely the highest. That consciousness is almost impossible to attain, even for the spiritual Masters. (God, Avatars and Yogis)



To be sure, the Kingdom of Heaven is more than just a mere plane, like other planes. It is a plane of divine Consciousness. It is a state of Realisation. It embodies Sat-Chit-Ananda. Sat is divine Existence, Chit is divine Consciousness, Ananda is divine Bliss. When we go deep within we feel these three together, and when we acquire the inner vision to perceive them all at once, we live verily in the Kingdom of Heaven. Otherwise, Existence is at one place, Consciousness is somewhere else and Bliss is nowhere near the other two. When we see and feel Existence-Consciousness-Bliss on the selfsame plane, each complementing and fulfilling the others, we can say that we live in the Kingdom of Heaven. Yes, the Kingdom of Heaven is within us. Not only can we feel it, but without the least possible doubt, we can become it.



(Yoga and the Spiritual Life by Sri Chinmoy)

Souce: yogaofsrichinmoy.com

Here is the mantra that illustrates Sat-Chit-Ananda in detail:

Moola Mantra





|| Aum Sat Chit Ananda Parabrahma

Purushothama Paramatma

Sri Bhagavati Sametha

Sri Bhagavate Namaha ||



ॐ सच्चिदानंद परब्रह्म पुरुषोत्तम परमात्मा ।

श्री भगवती समेत श्री भगवते नमः ॥





This mantra evokes the living God, asking protection and freedom from all sorrow and suffering. It is a prayer that adores the great creator and liberator, who out of love and compassion manifests , to protect us, in an earthly form. This Moolamantra has given great peace and joy to people all over the world, who have chanted, or even listened to it. It has the power to transport ones mind to the state of causeless love and limitless joy. The calmness that the mantra can give is to be experienced, not spoken about. Dear reader, here is the key with which any door to spiritual treasure could be opened. A tool which can be used to achieve all desires. A medicine which cures all ills. The nectar that can set man free! All auspiciousness and serenity is yours simply by chanting or listening to this magnificent Moolamantra.



Whenever you chant the Moolamantra even without knowing the meaning of it, that itself carries power. But when you know the meaning and chant with that feeling in your heart then the energy would flow million times more powerful. Therefore it is essential to know the meaning of the Mantra when you use it.



The Mantra is like calling a name. Just like when you call a person he comes and makes you feel his presence, the same manner when you chant this mantra, the supreme energy manifests everywhere around you. As the Universe is Omnipresent, the supreme energy can manifest anywhere and any time. It is also very important to know that the invocation with all humility, respect and with great necessity makes the presence stronger.



Meaning



Om

Om has 100 different meanings. It is said ‘In the beginning was the Supreme word and the word created every thing. That word is Om’. If you are meditating in silence deeply, you can hear the sound Om within. The whole creation emerged from the sound Om. It is the primordial sound or the Universal sound by which the whole universe vibrates. Om also means inviting the higher energy. This divine sound has the power to create, sustain and destroy, giving life and movement to all that exist.



Sat Chit Ananda



Sat

The all penetrating existence that is formless, shapeless, omnipresent, attribute less, and quality less aspect of the Universe. It is the Un manifest. It is experienced as emptiness of the Universe. We could say it is the body of the Universe that is static. Every thing that has a form and that can be sensed, evolved out of this Un manifest. It is so subtle that it is beyond all perceptions. It can only be seen when it has become gross and has taken form. We are in the Universe and the Universe is in us. We are the effect and Universe is the cause and the cause manifests itself as the effect.



Chit

The Pure Consciousness of the Universe that is infinite, omni-present manifesting power of the Universe. Out of this is evolved everything that we call Dynamic energy or force. It can manifest in any form or shape. It is the consciousness manifesting as motion, as gravitation, as magnetism, etc. It is also manifesting as the actions of the body, as thought force. It is the Supreme Spirit.



Ananda

Bliss, love and friendship nature of the Universe. When you experience either the Supreme Energy in this Creation (Sat) and become one with the Existence or experience the aspect of Pure Consciousness (Chit), you enter into a state of Divine Bliss and eternal happiness (Ananda). This is the primordial characteristic of the Universe, which is the greatest and most profound state of ecstasy that you can ever experience when you relate with your higher Consciousness.



Parabrahma

The Supreme Being in his Absolute aspect; one who is beyond space and time. It is the essence of the Universe that is with form and without form. It is the Supreme creator.



Purushothama

This has different meanings. Purusha means soul and Uthama means the supreme, the Supreme spirit. It also means the supreme energy of force guiding us from the highest world. Purusha also means Man, and Purushothama is the energy that incarnates as an Avatar to help and guide Mankind and relate closely to the beloved Creation.



Paramatma

The supreme inner energy that is immanent in every creature and in all beings, living and non-living. It’s the indweller or the Antaryamin who resides formless or in any form desired. It’s the force that can come to you whenever you want and wherever you want to guide and help you.



Sri Bhagavathi

The female aspect, which is characterized as the Supreme Intelligence in action, the Power (The Shakti). It is referred to the Mother Earth (Divine Mother) aspect of the creation.



Sametha

Together or in communion with.



Sri Bhagavathe

The Male aspect of the Creation, which is unchangeable and permanent.



Namaha

Salutations or prostrations to the Universe that is Om and also has the qualities of Sat Chit Ananda, that is omnipresent, unchangeable and changeable at the same time, the supreme spirit in a human form and formless, the indweller that can guide and help in the feminine and masculine forms with the supreme intelligence. I seek your presence and guidance all the time.

Om Tat Sat

Om Tat Sat is a mantra in Sanskrit that is translated to mean the ‘Supreme Absolute Truth’ – literally ‘all that is’.

Om refers to the Supreme Infinite Spirit or Person.

Tat refers to ‘that’, or ‘all that is’.

Sat refers to ‘truth’, that which is not evanescent or ephemeral, the underlying basis, which is most fundamental and universal.

Sometimes Hari Om Tat Sat (Hari, the Lord, is infinite spirit – that is the truth) is also spoken as a variation, especially amongst followers of the bhakti paths.

“From the beginning of creation, the three words om tat sat were used to indicate the Supreme Absolute Truth. These three symbolic representations were used by brahmanas while chanting the hymns of the Vedas and during sacrifices for the satisfaction of the Supreme.”



In the Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 17, Text 23) The Supreme God is designated as OM TAT SAT. OM means he is present in the whole world as regulator, the whole world is supported by him, and he is guNapUrNa (full of auspicious attributes). TAT means he is conveyed by vedas only, while SAT means he has no defects and is full of auspicious attributes.

क्षमा प्रार्थना दुर्गा (Shri Kshama Prathana Stotram Durga)

माँ दुर्गा देवि क्षमा प्रार्थना 

This eulogy or stuti is a part of Durga Saptashati. Usually, when the prayers are ordinarily done, we make mistakes in the prayer methods (incorrect pronunciation, for instance). This eulogy is sung in the end to ask for forgiveness and for any mistakes or incomplete offerings.

अपराधसहस्त्राणि क्रियन्तेsहर्निशं मया ।

दासोsयमिति मां मत्वा क्षमस्व परमेश्र्वरि ॥ १

आवाहनं न जानामि न जानामि विसर्जनम् ।

पूजां चैव न जानामि क्षम्यतां परमेश्र्वरि ॥ २

मन्त्रहीनं क्रियाहीनं भक्तिहीनं सुरेश्र्वरि ।

यत्पूजितं मया देवि परिपूर्ण तदस्तु मे ॥ ३

अपराधशतं कृत्वा जगदम्बेति चोच्चरेत् ।

यां गतिं सम्वान्पोते न तां ब्रह्मादयः सुरा: ॥ ४

सापाराधोsस्मि शरणं प्राप्पस्त्वां जगदम्बिके ।

इदानीमनुकम्प्योsहं यथेच्छसि तथा कुरू ॥ ५

अज्ञानाद्विस्मृतेर्भ्रान्त्या यन्न्यूनमधिकं कृतम् ।

तत्सर्व क्षम्यतां देवि प्रसीद परमेश्र्वरि ॥ ६

कामेश्र्वरि जगन्मातः सच्चिदानन्दविग्रहे ।

गृहाणार्चामिमां प्रीत्या प्रसीद परमेश्र्वरि ॥ ७

गुह्यातिगुह्यगोप्त्री त्वं गृहाणास्मत्कृतं जपम् ।

सिद्धिर्भवतु मे देवि त्वत्प्रसादात्सुरेश्र्वरि ॥ ८


The meaning

Oh great goddess, I commit thousands of offences routinely,
So please think me as your slave and please pardon me.
1

I do not how to invoke you, nor do I know how do send you away,
And I also do not know how to worship you, and please pardon me.
2

I do not know chants or holy action or devotion, Oh God of the devas,
And so whatever worship I do, please make it complete.
3

If one calls you, “Mother of the universe” and commits hundred mistakes,
Still you look after his salvation, and this cannot be done by Brahma and other devas.
4

Oh mother of the universe , having committed several mistakes I seek your refuge,
And please decide on the fate of this shivering one according to your wishes.
5

Oh great goddess I have done all this due to ignorance and wayward thoughts,
And so excuse them all and be pleased with me.
6

Oh Goddess of love, Oh mother of the world, Oh source of eternal happiness,
Please accept my worship and with love become pleased with me.
7

Oh goddess who is secret of secrets, Please accept the chanting done by me,
And make me powerful, through your grace, Oh Goddess of the devas.
8
In Roman Alphabets
Aparadha sahasrani kriyanthe aaharnisam maya,

Aavajanam na janami, na janami visarjanam,

Manthraheenam, kriyaheenam, Bhakthiheenam , Sureswari,
Yath poojitham maya devi paripoornam thadasthuthe. 3

Aaparadha satham kruthwa jagadambethi cho ucharath,
Yaam gathim samvapnothe na thaam brahmadaya suraa. 4

Saparadhosmi saranam prathasthvam jagadambike,

Agnana smrutherbranthya yanyoonam adhikam krutham.
Thath sarva kshamyadham devi praseedha parameshwari. 6

Kameshwari jaganmatha sachidananda vigrahe,
