Anandamayi Ma



Dear All,


My prostrations to the saint who has poured the above words.

Never before and never after can we find/read/hear such profound words of wisdom.

Here, we have to recall Swami's famous lines.

"Ornaments are many, gold is one;
  Colors of the cows are many, milk is one;

  Beings are many, the Indweller is one"


Even while the saint is looking at the varieties in this world and says,"each one has his own uniqueness and beauty... every one of you adds with his special feature to the glory of the garden", at a subtler level, the delight expressed by Maa on seeing such variety is due to the one factor which is echoed in Sai's lines "Beings are many, the indweller is one".

Each artist has his/her own uniqueness, one is a great singer, one is a great dancer, one is a great painter, one is a great sculptor etc., but if we contemplate on the one single factor/Light (Light of lights) which illumines the art/capacity of each artist, one can Realize that it is the same Divine Light, Divine Energy, Divine Consciousness which illumines each and  every artist's art.

We look around in the world and see so many diversities, each human, each city, each state, each country is unique in its own ways. But behind this diverse universe, what is the one divine energy? What is the one divine light which is illumining each unique aspect in the nature? Who is the one material, intelligent and instrument cause for the matter? 

So, the realized Masters like Anandamayi  Maa, even while delighting in the variety in the world, are always and eternally aligned to  and abide in one truth, SATH, one knowledge CHIT (Knowledge of the TRUTH, SATH) and thereby remain in the state of ever lasting bliss ANANDA ( Due to the existence as the very knowledge and not as knower of truth ( SAT CHIT).

Vibhuti yoga of Chapter 10 of Bhagwan Gita is all about the one all pervading essence in all apparent diversities in this world.

Swami Sivananda explains the ONE existence in all diversities beautifully through his song on vibhuti which is given below.

In the whole song, the " I" or " Aham" is the one lord, one divine light, one divine consciousness as explained above in SAT CHIT ANANDA.

Let us read the song of the saint of Ananda Kutir, with reverance.

Bhajo Radhe Krishna,
Bhajo Radhe Shyama
Soham Soham, Sivoham Soham.
Om Om Om Om Om,
Om Om Om Om Om.
I am neither mind nor body, immortal Self I am,
I am witness of three states, I am knowledge absolute.
(Om Om.....)

I am fragrance in jessamine, beauty in flowers,
I am coolness in the ice, flavour in coffee.
(Bhajo Radhe Krishna...)

I am greenness in the leaf, hue in the rainbow,
I am taste-buds in the tongue, essence in orange.
(Om Om.....)

I am mind of all minds, prana of all pranas,
I am soul of souls, Self of all selves.
(Bhajo Radhe Krishna...)

I am Atman in all beings, apple of all eyes,
I am sun of all suns, light of all lights.
(Om Om.....)

I am Pranava of all vedas, Brahman of Upanishads,
I am silence in forests, thunder in all clouds.
(Bhajo Radhe Krishna...)

I am velocity in electrons, motion in science,
I am effulgence in the sun, wave in the radio.
(Om Om.....)

I am support of this world, soul of this body,
I am ear of all ears, eye of all eyes.
(Bhajo Radhe Krishna...)

I am time, space, dik and the controller,
I am God of gods, guru and the director.
(Om Om.....)

I am melody in music, in rag and raginins,
I am sound in ether, sakti in virya.
(Bhajo Radhe Krishna...)

I am power in electricity, intelligence in mind,
I am brilliance in fire, penance in ascetics.
(Om Om.....)

I am `reason' in philosopher, `will' in jnanis,
I am prem in bhaktas, samadhi in yogis.
(Bhajo Radhe Krishna...)

I am That I am, I am That I am,
I am That I am, I am That I am.

(Om Om.....)

Love.
