Gorakh Bodh

The Gorakhbodh 
The original source (now extinct): http://www.hubcom.com/tantric/gorakh.htm

Gorakh -- O Lord (Svami), you are the Master Teacher (Satguru Gosain), and I am but a disciple: may I put a question, which you would kindly reply to and resent not? To start with, what ideal (lacch) should the disciple put before him? Do tell me for you are the true Teacher.
Macchendra: Let the unattached (awadhu, avadhuta) live at the monastery (hat) or be on the road, resting in the shadow of the trees; he should renounce desire, cruelty, greed, delusion, and the illusion of Samsar (Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha and Samsar ki Maya); he should hold converse (gosht) with himself and contemplate the Endless (Ananta); he should sleep little and eat little. In the beginning the disciple should live thus. Thus speaks Macchendra. [2]

Gorakh: What should he see, what contemplate, and what treat as the essence (sar); with what should he shave his head and with the knowledge of what should he try to cross (the ocean of Samsar)?
Macchendra: He should see himself, contemplate the Endless (Ananta), and fix upon Reality as the essence; he should shave his head with (or after receiving) the word of the teacher (Guru ka Shabda), and should cross over with the aid of Divine knowledge (Brahma Gyana). [4]

Gorakh: What is the teaching (upadesh) of the Guru's order or doctrine (Ades)? Where does the void (Sunya) reside? Who is the Guru of the word (Shabda)?
Macchendra: The most wonderful (anupam) is the teaching of the Guru (Ades); the void (Sunya) resides within us and Realisation (parcha or parichaya) is the Guru of the word (shabda). [6]

Shiva Yoga Darpana

Shiva Yoga Darpana

The name of this work means ‘The Reflection (or mirror) of Shiva Yoga’. The work is short, consisting only from 26 verses; it seems that the author of the manuscript has made it for the daily reference purposes, by selecting only that which appeared to him as the most essential knowledge. There are at least few verses similar to that of HYP, and some other works, probably the work was written as the compilation or summary from few different scriptures. There is no traditional salutation to the Deity in the beginning of the work, and the mention of the author’s name at its end is also absent.

bhruvormadhye śivasthānaṁ manastatra vilīyate |
jñātarvya tad padaṁ divyaṁ tatra kalo na vidyate  SYS|| 1 ||

SYS 1.1 In the middle of eyebrows, there is the seat of Shiva, where the mind should be absorbed. This marvelous state, which is beyond of the effects of time has to be known (trough own experience).

sūryacandramasormadhye mudrāṁ dadyācca khecarīm |
nirrālmbe mahāśūnye brahmacakraṁ vyavasthitam  SYS || 2 ||

SYS 1.2 From the performance of the khechri mudra in between of Surya and Chandra, one experiences the support less space (the Great Nonexistence) and becomes established in the Brahma Chakra.

lakṣaikalagne manasi hymanaskaṁ prajāyate |
amanaske tu sañjāte svarupaṁ samprajāyate SYS || 26 ||

SYS 1.26 The mind should be directed towards the only one aim, which is the establishment of the mind in the unmani state (cessation of the mind). When this condition has been attained, one experiences one’s own true form (svarupa samprajāyate).

Viveka Martanda

Viveka Martanda
(Itrans encoding by Yoga Nath)

Viveka Mārtaṇḍa is recognized as an important book of the Natha Tradition, describing the practices of the Natha yogis. Word mārtaṇḍa can be translated as both, ‘Sun’ or as ‘of different authors’, and word viveka means wisdom, therefore name of the book can be translated either as ‘the Sun of Wisdom’ or either as ‘The collection of the wisdom of the various authors’.
The numerous verses of Viveka Mārtaṇḍa are virtually identical with the verses of GS, and there exist some verses adopted from HYP and Bhagavat Gita. There are also numerous from the second part of Gorakha Paddhati; some researchers are support view that it is Viveka Martanda, which borrows from Gorakha Paddhati and not otherwise. In this light, it appears as more possible that the name of the book can be translated rather as ‘the collection of wisdom of different authors’.

'Mani jītai jagu jītu’ 

"Who has conquered the own mind, he has conquered the world"

(Guru Nanak Japuji Sahib 28)

If... 

The composition by Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being hated, don't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,

And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!

Chapter I

1. The Jnana [Gnosis] alone is eternal; it is without beginning or end; there exists no other real substance. Diversities which we see in the world are results of sense-conditions; when the latter cease, then this Jnana alone, and nothing else, remains.

2-3. I, Ishvara, the lover of my devotees, and Giver of spiritual emancipation to all creatures, thus declare the science of (the exposition of Yoga). In it are discarded all those doctrines of disputants, which lead to false knowledge. It is for the spiritual disenthralment of persons whose minds are undistracted and fully turned towards Me. Differences of opinion.

4. Some praise truth, others purification and asceticism; some praise forgiveness, others equality and sincerity.

5. Some praise alms-giving, others laud sacrifices made in honor of one's ancestors; some praise action, others think dispassion  to be the best.

6. Some wise persons praise the performance of the duties of the householder; other authorities hold up fire-sacrifice etc., as the highest.

7. Some praise Mantra Yoga, others the frequenting of places of pilgrimage. Thus are the ways which people declare emancipation.
