A Family Is A Field Of Joy
Maharishi once said "A family is a field of joy" and we know that Maharishi's statements are deeply profound and can produce the awakening into Brahman Consciousness. This statement is particularily suitable for those who are in family situations. Sometimes the family situation is, on the surface, far from "a field of joy"! Severe health problems with children can occur and bring on much distress, the anxiety and pain caused by a teenager's drug use, the unfaithful spouse, or the death of a child are examples of family situations that appear on the surface to be nothing like a field of joy. So why would Maharishi make such a statement when family life is sometimes the apparent source of deep sorrow and misery? Human life is a transition period on the ascending phase of the cycle of evolution, from the unconscious realms of nature to the superconscious realm of Brahman Consciousness. To make this transition we have to wake up from the dream of daily life. Have you noticed how in a dream, just before you wake up, it sometimes gets very violent or bizzar, actually forcing you to think "hey, I don't want to do this anymore - wake up!" So called "waking state" human life is actually a dream from the perspective of Brahman Consciousness. We can at any time choose to wake up from this dream and become established in Brahman Consciousness. Then we look back and see how that whole period of life before was just like a dream where one is lost in a morass of ridiculous situations, sorrow, misery, happiness, unhappiness, etc. It says in the Yoga Vashista:

Activate the Anterior Amygdala for Limitless Mental Ability
The amygdala manages connections and responses between several regions of the brain. It's directly involved with emotional well-being, the flight-or-flight response and fear conditioning. A recent study also suggests that the amygdala plays a role in the complexity of social life. Most importantly, research by T. D. A. Lingo has established that the anterior portion of the amygdala is connected to the frontal lobes. If one activates the anterior portion of the amygdala, the frontal lobes will open to limitless mental ability.

Aditya Hridayam - 2-7
As we progress on the Path to Brahman Consciousness, we will all, as did S'rî Râm , slay Râvana . Râvana is the collection of karma and ungounded energy that is expressed as arrogance. To destroy arrogance, we must call upon our Âtman to give us the secret of how to do this. The Âditya Hridayam is that secret.

Asuric Human Life
Asura means against sura or against the Divine. To be against the Divine means to view one's life as independent and separate from the Divine. The asuric person feels responsible for his or her life and is constantly seeking something that will improve the quality of life. Everyone passes through the asuric stage on the way to Brahman Consciousness.

Âtman
The Âtman is unique for every jiva because it is the memory of the jiva's accumulated karma . Hence we sometimes speak of "my Âtman " or "your Âtman ." The process of entering onto the path of Brahman Consciousness begins with the Âtman , as does life itself and the gift of a human body in the first place. The Âtman is the personal version of Lord Vishnu that is gifted to every evolving being by Lord S'iva at the first instance of pragya-aparadh to serve as the guiding light through the maze of mâya to eventually bring the jîva home to Unity or onto the path of Brahman Consciousness. As our guiding light, the Âtman is loving, passive and cooperative, never manipulative or dominating.
