Ese día

Baba

Ese día

Namaskar,

“Tienes que a propagar la filosofía de Ananda Marga y servir a la humanidad desinteresadamente”.
 
Estas fueron las palabras del Maestro. Sí, ésta, en efecto, es la penitencia que Él me dio.

Echando un vistazo a Baba en el aeropuerto
 
El 12 de junio de 1968, cuando nosotros, los miembros de Ananda Marga Pracaraka Samgha en Filipinas, celebramos Su cumpleaños. Fuimos informados de los supuestos misterios que rodearon Su nacimiento. Fue también ese día cuando supe que había una invitación hecha para que Él visitara Filipinas.
http://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/
 
A las 9 en punto del 20 de junio de 1968, me encontraba en el Aeropuerto Internacional de Manila como uno de los curiosos que recibían al Maestro. Poco después, alrededor de las 10:30 p. m., llegó el tan esperado avión de Qantas Airways que transportaba al Maestro y Su grupo. Cuando se detuvo con un chirrido en medio del ruido ensordecedor de su motor, corrí y me abrí camino hacia el extremo más alejado de la terraza al aire libre del aeropuerto para echar un vistazo al Maestro.
 
¿A qué se parece? ¿Qué clase de persona es Él? Estas eran las preguntas que rondaban mi mente. Después de unos minutos vi, desde mi posición ventajosa, a dos hombres, uno alto, delgado y con barba ataviado con una túnica color mandarina, el otro, bajito, un poco fornido sin barba, vestido con túnica blanca. Ese debe ser Él, me dije, el más bajo.

Recibir a Baba esa noche

 
Junto con dos compañeros me dirigí a la casa del Hermano Cunanan, donde ayudamos a organizar una línea de recepción a la luz de las velas para dar la bienvenida al Maestro. Después de una espera de suspenso de aproximadamente una hora, Él y Su grupo llegaron. Entonces lo miré más de cerca. No tiene barba después de todo. Por el contrario, Su rostro es suave y familiar. Nos saludó a casi todos allí con la sonrisa más dulce que jamás haya visto, con las manos entrelazadas ante Su pecho.

No dió ninguna conferencia durante esa noche. Se nos dijo que Él haría Su aparición al día siguiente.
 
El Maestro pronunció conferencias filosóficas dos veces al día durante Su estadía en Filipinas. Una cosa que noté en el Maestro, aparte de Sus filosofías que invitan a la reflexión, es Su voz. Es muy suave, tanto que a veces no puedo captar de inmediato lo que estaba tratando de decir.
 
El domingo 23 de junio, cuando el Maestro estaba dando Su discurso en el Templo Masónico a Sus discípulos, escuché que sucedió algo inusual. Los informes decían que la imagen del Maestro no aparecía en la filmación. No sé por qué.
 
Luego, en la noche del 24 de junio, durante nuestra reunión con el hermano Cunanan, escuché narraciones de una experiencia inusual que tres de nuestros co-aspirantes tuvieron durante su contacto personal con el Maestro.


Memorizando el Mandato Supremo
 
  25 de junio—El Maestro tenía programado volar a la ciudad de Baguio, junto con algunos aspirantes espirituales. Ya eran las 6 de la mañana de ese día cuando me decidí por ir a Baguio.

Llegué a Baguio alrededor de las 3 de la tarde del mismo día. Después de registrarme en un hotel barato y tomar un almuerzo un poco tarde. Me dirigí al Hotel Pines donde se suponía que estaba el Maestro. En el vestíbulo del hotel, vi a un acarya junto con algunos de mis co-aspirantes. Le pregunté al acarya jii si yo también podía tener contacto personal con el Maestro. Respondió afirmativamente. Luego me pidió que memorizara el “Mandato Supremo”.
http://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/
 
Por fin llegó la hora tan esperada. Cinco de nosotros estábamos en la lista, pensé. Me di cuenta de que uno es un hindú que resultó ser un comerciante de la ciudad de Baguio, mientras que dos son chinos. Todos estábamos esperando en el pasillo del hotel adyacente a la habitación del Maestro.


Mi contacto personal con Baba
 
Entonces llegó mi turno. Cuando entré en la habitación del Maestro, lo vi reclinado en Su cama. Luego me hizo señas para que me acercara a Él. Después de preguntar mi nombre, me pidió que citara los pecados que había cometido. Al principio me resistí a decírselo. En primer lugar, no esperaba que Él hiciera eso. En segundo lugar, no estoy acostumbrado a hacer confesiones. Hasta donde puedo recordar, solo hice cuatro confesiones ante un sacerdote católico en toda mi vida. No creo mucho en las confesiones, para ser franco.
 
Sin embargo, cuando el Maestro me pidió que lo hiciera, de repente sentí como si hubiera una gran fuerza para cumplir con Su deseo. Lo inusual de esto es que Él parecía conocer los detalles. Cuando me pidió que citara a otro, no sabía qué decirle, no porque no estuviera dispuesto a decírselo, sino porque de alguna manera lo había olvidado. Cuando no pude recordar lo mismo, fue el Maestro quien me lo dijo. Y Él estaba en lo correcto.
http://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/
 
Después de recibir algunas advertencias de Él, me indicó que me acercara a Él nuevamente. "Tú eres mi Hijo; Yo soy tu padre." Como cumplí con Su pedido, me abrazó fuertemente y me besó como un verdadero Padre. En reciprocidad, también lo abracé y lo besé. Nunca en mi vida había experimentado tal sentimiento de dicha como en esos momentos.
 
"Estás bien ahora, hijo mío", dijo.

Conclusión

 
Cuando salí de Su habitación, no pude reprimir mis lágrimas. Sin embargo, no eran lágrimas de arrepentimiento. Eran lágrimas de alegría porque por fin encontré la verdad.
 
En Él
C. San Gabriel

En un resumen en español de Subhasita Samgraha - 1, “The God of Human Beings”, Baba nos dice: “Si incluso los pecadores idean en mí, si me aceptan como su único objeto de ideación”, dice el Señor, “serán liberados de todas las ataduras y cadenas mundanas”. Los pecadores deben alcanzar la salvación, deben ser liberados de todos los pecados, de todas las ataduras del pecado, por el Padre Supremo. Así que para los virtuosos y también para los pecadores, el Padre Supremo es el único amparo. El Padre Supremo es el único objeto de ideación. ¿Qué deben hacer los pecadores? Deben olvidar su pasado y deben avanzar en el camino de la espiritualidad para alcanzar esa postura suprema. Para entrar en contacto directo con el Padre Supremo, deben servir al universo como las hijas e hijos ideales del Padre Supremo. No necesitas estar ansioso. No debes tener preocupaciones ni ansiedades sobre tus problemas personales. Tus problemas deben ser resueltos por el Padre Supremo. Ustedes sirvan a los hijos del Padre Supremo como las hijas ideales y los hijos ideales de ese Padre. (resumen en español)

En un resumen en español de Ananda Vacanamrtam - 34, “Be Free from All Complexes”, Baba nos dice: Ahora, incluso si un hombre es ese tipo de pecador a quien otros pecadores pueden tomar como un hombre malo, de quien incluso los pecadores pueden decir que es un hombre malo, para tal pecador, el peor tipo de pecador, el futuro no es oscuro. El futuro en su caso también es muy brillante, si se refugia en el regazo divino del Padre Supremo. “Estoy en el regazo de mi Padre, no puedo ser pecador”. Supón que estás caminando por el sendero y tu vestido, tu ropa, se enloda debido al polvo o la arcilla. Entonces, ¿deberías pensar que seguirás siendo desagradable o sucio para siempre? Si te presentas ante tu Padre con la ropa sucia, ¿qué hará tu Padre? Él lavará tu ropa y te tomará en su regazo: “Oh hijo mío, tu ropa se ha ensuciado, pero tú eres mi hijo. Ven aquí, ven aquí, siéntate en Mi regazo. Yo soy tu Padre, tú eres Mi hijo, no debes sufrir la psicología de ningún pecador”. ¿Me sigues? Así que, incluso si en el pasado ustedes fueron pecadores, olvídenlo. Recuerda que desde este mismo momento, eres el hijo pulcro y limpio, eres el hijo pulcro y limpio, del Padre Supremo. Así que no debe haber ninguna psicología de complejo del pecado. Para un aspirante espiritual, no debe haber ningún complejo. Libérate de todos los complejos y muévete por el camino de la rectitud con una mente equilibrada, con balance mental y equilibrio mental. Un futuro brillante te espera. (resumen en español)

¿Plagio?

Es el estándar internacional aceptado y el sistema de Baba no copiar el trabajo de otro y publicarlo a tu manera. Baba ha dado una regla muy estricta sobre el plagio. ¿Por qué Baba está en contra del plagio o de robar el trabajo de alguien? Hay muchas razones:

1) Va contra el código de asteya (no robar).

2) Es necesario publicar innumerables historias de bhaktas. Pero algunos no quieren hacer el arduo trabajo de recopilar y escribir estas historias, por lo que simplemente se las roban a otros. Pero es necesario contar nuevas historias, de lo contrario, muchas historias inéditas de sadhakas se perderán y olvidarán para siempre. Así que tenga cuidado con los ladrones de historias y ayúdelos amablemente a no robar publicando en las redes sociales a su manera.

Bottle dogma + 4 more

Baba

Bottle dogma

Namaskar

I saw one respected Dada who was posted some years back at the master unit in my area.

Dada ji told me, “You might have noticed how in late 1989-90 there was one dogma which started in Tiljala regarding microvita. Wherever kiirtan was going on, people were putting bottles of water all around. And this dogma multiplied so quickly that around the kiirtan pandal thousands of bottles got collected in no time. All with a label and address of different margiis.”
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Dogma of kiirtan, water bottle, and microvita


I asked, “Why were they collecting water for this? What was the reason?”

Dadaji replied, “Someone injected the dogma that if water is placed where people are doing kiirtan, then that water will be charged with a spiritual vibration. Just one drop of that vibrated water is enough to finish all the sins one committed in their whole life, and they will be assured a place in heaven. And if a person is on their deathbed then one drop is enough to grant liberation. Talk was also going around how this charged water annihilates and cures all the diseases instantly - all diseases which will be coming in this globe, in present and future.”

Dadaji continued: “This dogma rapidly became so prevalent that people’s mind became completely coloured by this dogma. So they bought a huge number of new bottles. Then during the akhanda kiirtan only a few people - perhaps 5 or 10 - were engaged in chanting kiirtan - while the attendance of margiis at the programmes was in the thousands. But only a few took interest to do kiirtan. Yet the number of water bottles arranged around the kiirtan pandal was hundreds in number. So this dogma of 'charging a bottle of water with positive microvita ' became popular very quickly.”

I asked, “Then what happened?”
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

VSS was ordered to throw away all those bottles


“Well, it was very odd to see all these things. Somehow news of this reached Baba. And then VSS was given the duty to throw out all those bottles from the kiirtan pandal. Since then this dogma finished.”

Dada continued, “So you understand the tendency of the common people is to try and get God's grace without any labour - without any practice of observing yama and niyama, do's and don'ts, sadhana. Everybody wants to find a shortcut. Because observing Sixteen Points is difficult - it needs discipline. Whereas getting salvation by taking a drop of water which is charged by the labour of someone else’s kiirtan singing is very easy.”

“I am telling all this because it is related with lazy people's psychology - i.e. those who do not like to take any hardship. Without doing anything they want to achieve the highest goal. That is why they follow all sorts of rituals given by the priests and mullahs of various temples, mosques, and churches. In that way they can find a shortcut. And now that very cheap, shortcut type of dogma has been dragged into our Ananda Marga Pracaraka Samgha."
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Inventors of dogma prey on lazy people’s weaknesses


Then Dada continued: “This type of environment is a congenial atmosphere for breeding newer and newer dogmas. When people are keen to purchase salvation or when people are looking for a shortcut to get salvation or A-grade bhakti, then opportunists invent a dogma that promises those things. So they start a new business on that precept, prey on the people's desires, and earn huge piles of money - effortlessly.

“You might have seen Hindu believers. They say taking one dip bath in the river grants salvation. This type of dogma is quite common. In the same way Sarvatmananda invented the dogma to erect a memorial in Tiljala and organise a yearly mela there. And the name of that mela is mahaprayan, and in Jamalpur Rudrananda and his team have their own tiirtha-style programs.

I asked, “Excuse me Dadaji what is wrong in this?”

He replied, “You see our Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji is Taraka Brahma. He came physically on this earth. And in the past also He came in the form of Lord Shiva and Lord Krsna also. And we know that Parama Purusa Baba never appreciated the memorial of Lord Shiva or Lord Krsna. Yet Hindu priests were keen to start such a dogma. No doubt their memorial is not called as memorial. The memorial of Lord Shiva and Lord Krsna is called as a temple. Their idols are in that memorial / temple, and in our memorial which is created by Sarvatmananda and Rudrananda, there is a tomb. Then what is the difference fundamentally? The answer is no difference."
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Conclusion


Then I asked, “So why did this change happen - why did tomb worship come in vogue in Ananda Marga Pracaraka Samgha (AMPS) and not idol worship?”

He responded, “Well the answer is very simple: Now the general society has gotten a little developed so people no longer like to involve in idol worship. So in place of idol worship, tomb worship was introduced. And that dogma snuck into our AMPS also and took the shape of memorial. Even there is one holy tomb / Mahasamadhi. So when a dogma comes from one religion into AMPS then it changes its external shape and color, while the whole inner psychology is the same. Same tomb, and same type of temple, only we call it memorial.”

“Overall, so many other yogis taught their disciples yoga sadhana and when they left their body then without any delay tomb worship started. Many Indian monks taught yoga sadhana to their disciples but those disciples without any delay started worshipping the tombs of these monks. Because doing yoga sadhana, asana, and following all yogic do’s and don’ts was difficult; whereas tomb worship was easy. Similarly in Tiljala, tomb worship is going on everyday. And people are invited to come at least once in a year. Really this is all one grand money-making venture. By pronouncing a place to be a tiirtha etc, that becomes a permanent source of revenue etc. Although for tax purposes, those at the helm write it off as a loss.

“So altogether when those temples are dogma then our Memorial is also dogma. And above all we should not forget that we must not commit sin and tie Parama Purusa to one particular place. But unfortunately those who are guided by geo-sentiment, i.e. sentiment of particular land, are highlighting the importance of a certain place. It may be Tiljala or it may be Jamalpur, but the overall effect is same.”

In Him,
Kamala

Which great rs'i repented for....

On this point, the dharmic teachings of Ananda Marga cite the example of Vyasa Deo who wrote so many puranas, or mythological stories, about the Lord. Vyasa Deo emphasized the importance of different places by telling that such-and-such location is more important because the Lord did certain special things there. Later on, after reflecting on this, Vyasa Deo expresses his repentance in the following shloka.

Ananda Marga ideology guides us:

Rúpaḿ rupavivarjjitasya bhavato yaddhyanena kalpitam
Stutyánirvacaniiyatákhilaguro duriikrta yanmaya
Vyapitvyam ca nirakrtam bhagavato yattirtha yatradina
Kśantavyaḿ jagadisho tadvikalatadostarayam matkrtam. (1)

Ananda Marga ideology says, "The Supreme Being is omnipresent....It is not proper to confine Him to a particular place and say that He has eaten butter at this place or taken a dip in the Ganges at that particular place, thus limiting Him to a particular region or a particular country or the glorification of a particular sacred place, and thereby limit His all-pervasiveness." (2)

Sadguru’s related teaching: searching within


To remove the dogma now it is our duty to reflect on Baba's following teachings and guidelines. We have to see whether we should seek Parama Purusa internally in our hearts and or look for Him externally.
https://anandamargauniversal.blogspot.com/

Ananda Marga philosophy states, "One who is devoted to God, who contemplates Parama Purus'a with madhura bha'va, need not go on a pilgrimage (Holy Land) for he remains constantly with Parama Purus'a. Such a person will say: Nitya a'chi vrnda'vane a'mi to nai hari cha'ra' d'a'kle hari a'shbe ka'che d'a'kle pare day se sa'r'a'. I am always in Vrindavana, I am never without Hari. If I call Him, He comes near. If I call, He will respond." (3)

Sadguru’s related teaching: atma-sukha tattva

Next our Ananda Marga teachings uncovers the mindset of those who impose that type of sanctified land dogma.

Ananda Marga philosophy guides us, "Human beings yield to this dogma with the sole intention of attaining selfish pleasures; They know that they are surrendering their intellect to dogma, and that the outcome will be undesirable; they know and understand everything why, even then, do they knowingly submit to it? They are all deliberate sinners and intentionally accept dogmas as truth. They observe that these dogmas are based on A'tma-Sukha Tattva; but they think, "I don't care whether it does good or harm to others, because at last I have enjoyed some pleasure!" Being motivated by this idea, they enslave themselves to dogmas. " (4)

Sadguru’s related teaching: pencil politics


Finally, by the below teaching, we can understand why more and more tiirtha sites have cropped up over the years.

Ananda Marga philosophy says, "The characteristic of dogma is to expand more and more. Do you know what expands when it is cut? The answer is a pencil, a pond and dogma. If someone tries to root out a dogma from people’s mind they tend to use even more dogma to justify their present dogma." (5)

Here the lead in the pencil gets bigger and bigger when cut. And likewise is the case with a pond and dogma. And there are some other excellent examples of this such as trying to cut off the corner of one handkerchief. By cutting then the number of corners increases. And same is the case with the sanctified land dogma in Ananda Marga.

Why bhaktas like to hide

 
"Tumi jáke bhálobáso, se keno árále tháke prashansáke hásimukhe, kenoi bá se dúre rákhe..." (Prabhat Samgiita #3333)

Purport: 

My Parama Purusa, one thing I do not understand. Please tell me, why do the ones whom You love wish to remain hidden and brush aside all name and fame. Why do they not like to accept any praise. If someone applauds and commends them, they ignore those words and merely smile. By Your grace, they understand that humans have nothing to brag about and that everything comes from Parama Purusa. Those bhaktas think that whatever they do is due to the supreme blessing of Parama Purusa. So there is no question of any gloating. Why do they do like this? 

Supreme Entity, You give riches and strength to others - i.e. those who are not bhaktas. You place them on the summit of mundane powers and grant them wealth and fortune. But for bhaktas, You steal away their sin and fill their mind with bliss of bhakti. Why do You do like this? 

Parama Purusa Baba, the eight occult powers make others lose their viveka. They misuse their abilities to harm innocent people and prop up their prestige by referring to themselves as some “great yogi.” Their ego gets puffed-up and they lose their senses and degenerate. They do what should not be done, follow the path of negative pratisaincara, and become one with the matter. Supreme Entity, You alone utilize those occult powers. For those bhaktas, by attaining You, they are ensconced in anandam every moment. By Your mercy, their mind is established in the divine world, and they remain satiated in bliss. They hold You in their heart and their deep longings and desires are fully satisfied. For them, sorrow is no longer sorrow, and happiness is no longer happiness. They are always immersed in Your infinite bliss and live forever in Vrindaban, i.e. with Parama Purusa. In liilananda they enjoy divine pleasure, and in nityananda they bask in perfect peace. Their life becomes successful as they become one with the Parama Purusa. lt is Your krpa. 

Parama Purusa Baba, why do bhaktas not die for their own prestige and praise…

Notes for Prabhat Samgiita #3333:

[1] Bhaktas do not ask anything from Parama Purusa other than He Himself. Whereas those who are ordinary people ask for name, fame, money, power, post etc. So accordingly Baba grants them and fulfills their desire.

[2] Viveka: “Viveka is that kind of deliberation where there is a conscious endeavour to decide in favour of shreya (benevolence) when confronted with the two opposing ideas of shreya and preya (malevolence).” (1)

[3] Vrindaban: “Vrndávanaḿ parityajya pádamekaḿ na gacchámi [“I won’t go anywhere, not even one step, from Vrindavana”]. This is not the terrestrial Vrindavana, but the Vrindavana of the devotee’s heart. In this Vrindavana, both the devotee and the Lord are there. They are playing the game of hide and seek – now He attracts the devotee, now He hides Himself. When the devotee rushes to Him, he or she discovers that the One who was attracting from behind the scenes was actually close at hand; and so he or she attains Him.” (2)

[4] Liilananda & Nityananda: “When a sádhaka’s mind oscillates [among different experiences] along the paths of the saiṋcara and pratisaiṋcara of Brahma and becomes inextricably merged with Its panoramic expressions, that condition is called liilábháva, and the sádhaka’s blissful feeling is called liilánanda. In liilábháva the sádhakas’ entire existences become vibrated with the vibrations of the Cosmic dance, causing them to burst out in dance, laughter, tears and song. But in nityánanda there is no such expression as this. Puruśottama [the Nucleus Consciousness] is the supreme source of the countless forms and flows that emanate during liilábháva; but His own stance is nityabháva [eternal and unchangeable]. So the ánanda which sádhakas experience when united with Him in His unchangeable, eternal stance is called nityánanda.” (3)

Sadhana: grades of ideation

Ananda Marga ideology guides us, "In the fourth phase the relationship is just like a piece of paper; the unit consciousness of the spiritual aspirant is one side of the paper and the Cosmic Consciousness of Parama Purus'a is the other side of the paper; they are inseparable, one cannot be removed from the other. By His effulgence the unit existence, the existential faculty of the aspirant gets lighted, gets illumined. With His illumination the aspirant is to move forward and enjoy the Supreme Beatitude and the Supreme Composure." (1)

Note: Here above Baba is indirectly guiding about the last part of the practice of dhyana - which every sincere sadhaka practices regularly.

In meditation, the lowermost bhaktas think that God is in some other world. A practical example of this is that in 1990 those types of lowest bhaktas created the so-called shraddha purport whereby they recited something similar to this: “O Parama Purusa, in the past You were with us and now You have left us - You are very far away in divya-dham (divine world) - beyond our reach. From there You please bless us.” This is the central idea what our so-called great, great purodhas did in October 1990. This is the sign of lowest grade bhaktas. Because in their mind, Parama Purusa is very far away - somewhere in a very far away different world.

The next grade of bhaktas think that God is here in this world (loka) - “He is within my reach but He is a little far.” This is better than the worst grade but still not very elevated. The next stage of bhakta feels that, “Parama Purusa is my very near and He is my relation - father, or even my close intimate friend.” 

And the highest grade bhakta is what is described above in Baba’s teachings. So this is a brief description of the various grades of bhaktas.

One should remember that sadhana is the effort to go close to Parama Purusa, and slowly the degree of closeness reflects the types of relation one has with Parama Purusa. So if a person is thinking that Parama Purusa is very far away in another world then they are the lowest of the low because the distance is far and they have to travel a lot.

If you think that He is your close, intimate friend then you are very close to Parama Purusa. But the most close to Parama Purusa is what is described in the above teaching. In the last stage, the unit mind merges into Cosmic Consciousness, and jiiva becomes Shiva.

How to follow the path of benediction

Ananda Vanii states, "The entire universe has to be brought within the realm of your mind and made wholeheartedly your own. This indeed is the way to benediction, the way to all-round prosperity and success. This is the only path of your individual and collective survival." (1)

जब मैं भटक जाता हॅूं तो तुम अपने स्नेहाकर्षण से मुझे अपने पास खींचलेते हो।


Prabhat Samgiita #3346 तुमि फूलेरि ... फोटाले...

भावार्थ-

हे परमपुरुष! सब कुछ तुम्हीं करते हो, तुमने फूलों के हृदय अमृत से भर दिये हो। कंटीले पौधे से तुम गुलाब बना देते हो , तुम असंभव को संभव कर देते हो। ऐंसा कुछ नहीं है जो तुम नहीं कर सकते। हे परम सत्ता! तुम ठंडभरी शीतऋ़तु में अग्नि की ऊष्णता प्रदान करते हो और जलती हुई ग्रीष्म में तुम्हारा स्पर्श  चंदन की शीतलता प्रदान करता है। तुम भूखे को भोजन, प्यासे को पानी,बेघर को आश्रय और बीमार को उपचार का साधन उपलब्ध कराते हो तुम्ही सब कुछ करतेहो तुम ब्रह्माॅंड के नियंत्रक हो।

हे परूपुरुष बाबा! तुम अपनी इच्छा से सब कुछ करते जाते हो , कभी मुझे हंसाते हो तो कभी रुलाते हो। जब मैं भटक जाता हॅूं तो तुम अपने स्नेहाकर्षण से मुझे अपने पास खींचलेते हो।अन्य समयों में यदि मैं तुम्हारी ओर देखता भी  हॅूं तो तुम कोई संकेत नहीं देते। तुम अपनी इस लीला से और अधिक ब्याकुलता और भक्ति भाव भर देते हो। अन्य किसी समय तुम मुझे अपने दिव्य प्रेम और आकर्षण से खींचते हो, हे प्रभो! तुम सब स्थानों पर हो और सब कुछ कर रहे हो।

बाबा! हे परमपुरुष! तुम अग्नि की ऊष्णता में छिपे रहते हो, और उसी समय जलवाष्प के साथ आकाष  में तैरते हो। तुम वर्फ की षीतलता और वनस्पति की हरियाली में रहते हो। तुम सर्वव्यापी हो । हे मेरे मन के मयूर ! तुम धप और छाया कर खेल खेलते हुए नाचते रहते हो। कभी कभी मैं तुम्हरी दिव्य उपस्थिति का अनुभव करता हॅूं कभी नहीं। फिर भी मैं जानता हॅूं कि तुम सर्वाधिक प्यारे हो।
बाबा! तुम बड़े अद्रश्य  होकर चुपचाप सबके भले और मुक्ति के लिये सब कुछ करते रहते हो, यह तुम्हारी कृपा ही है।

टिप्पणी-रोना- सभी जानते हैं कि अनेक कारणों से लोग रोते हैं। कभी कभी तब जब वे बहुत प्रसन्न होते हैं। भक्त अपनी भक्ति के चरम स्तर पर परमपुरुष को पुकार कर रोने लगते हैं क्योंकि वे उनसे दूर रहने  का कष्ट नहीं सह पाते। इस गीत में ये सभी स्थितियाॅं सम्मिलित हैं।

Shankarananda is doing just see what

Namaskar,
This photo speaks for itself about the two. They are apparently two love birds. Things have gone way far for him to be in orange robes. I love Shankarananda and respect for him. Shankarananda should waste no time and quickly get married with this lady he seems to love and be close to her so much. I am sure they have been carrying for quite a while to take a photo that close to each other - pure love birds indeed. May Baba bless these two in marriage.
In Him,
N.
