Jesus

Dear All,

The initial 2 lines echo Saint Chinmaya's quote where the saint says, even if you slip, even if you fail in your (spiritual) life, do not be afraid, do not get demoralized. Each failure teaches you something very important in your life.

The second part is echoed in the author's spontaneous writing on Buddha's post which he sent to all Muscateers yesterday. The relevant portion of Buddha's post is reproduced below.

The portion given below is as though the response of the devotee to Lord Jesus's assertion that "Lord is one, He goes with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you".

The devotee listens to Jesus's gospel and responds with tears thus:-

"What ever I am, I am Yours. You say You are love and You have told us to live in love. If I have to practice the same, then how can the love not cover myself also? I may be a sinner, I may not be succeeding in progressing towards You, but who else but You can give me the strength to reach You?? 

Mujhe Shakti do, with that strength, let me immerse in devotion / love for which, mujhe Bhakti do and  after I reach the last but one stage in my Bhakti, give me Your hand and help me cross the last step, Mukti do, to whom can I pray for all these, who has all these things to give but You, O Sai Shiva!!!"

This crying out to Lord is natural and spontaneous because:-

1.  The devotee by himself is not able to evolve in the spiritual path. He is weak, slave to his worldly attachments, existing  like a sheep, though he is Lion, in essence.
2. When the devotee searches for support, for someone to hold his hands/carry him on his shoulders and take him to the abode of peace, Prashanti,  the devotee looks at the Lord, call him Jesus or Allah or Ishwar or Sai.
3.  Looking at Sai, the devotee recollects Sai's words "........sambhavami yuge yuge"
4. Thus, the devotee knows that Here is the Lord who has been coming again and again in various forms from time to time for the protection of virtuous. 
5. Since the Lord has come, gone and come back again and again and now, after 24/4/2011 has gone once more to His abode, the devotee gets an assurance within and cries out, who else but You can know the path to the ultimate abode (liberation) as coming and going from/to that place is Your hobby. So, who else but You can carry me through and reach me safely to the BRINDAVAN  of divine beauty, the garden of liberation, from this BHAVA SAGAR of samsara with only pain?

So, the devotee cries from the bottom of His heart, O Bhakta vatsala, Prana Sakha, I know You can never forsake me, please carry me, please give me the strength, mujhe Shakti do!

The feeling of the devotee is same, whether he is a hindu or a christian or a muslim or of any other religion because, GOD IS ONE!

"Ekam sat vipra bahudha vadanti"

(THAT  which exists is One: sages call it by various names)

Love.

Dear All,

You are requested to align today's quote and the exposition of today's quote with the interpretation of SAI AUM bhajan in 2 dimensions given by the author. This was sent to the sadan group couple of years before.

Divyatman,

Let us travel through the journey from form to form less and beyond, from bhakti to jnana and beyond!!!

A bhajan interpreted by a devotee, which travelled all over the world through various yahoo groups and other channel then, and the same which is poured now by the SELF,  see the dimensions in both!

AS A DEVOTEE ( In the path of Bhakti), written in 2006

Dear brothers/sisters.

The Lyrics, aligned with the interpreted meaning during the meditation process of a devotee is given below:

Sai Aum Sai Aum Sai Aum

(Aum is the first primal sound, the pranava mantra. So to say, Sai is first, Sai is first and foremost of everything)

Tan Man Praan Mein Sai Aum

(Sai is filled in my physical self, my mental self; my very life breath is Sai)

Shayan Swapan Mein Sai Aum

(With SAI AS MY EVERYTHING, WHEN I WENT TO SLEEP, HE WAS AGAIN IN MY DREAM)

Gagan Pavan Mein Sai Aum

(Sai was in the sky, Sai was felt in the breezy Air) How did it happen?? Did any one post a sky high portrait, oh Sai, so that He was seen in the sky?? No.

Nayan Nayan Mein Sai Aum

(Sai was seen, fel everywhere, because I filled my eyes with Sai, my eyes refused to see anything But Sai)

Janam Maran Mein Sai Aum

(With Sai as my everything, if i were to Die and take another birth to burn my vasanas, my karma, then again, Sai wis the only Pranasakaha, who accompanies , who is there even in my death and in my next birth, He is first, He is foremost, he is everything)

AS SELF, PURE CONSCIOUSNESS (in the path of Jnana), written in 2015.

Sai Aum Sai Aum Sai Aum

O sadhakas,  Know the real substratum of all incarnations to be " AUM"!!!

He was there….

From His energy, appeared / emerged the cosmic vibration- AUM

There on, He became aware- as though

Then the so called creation emerged, (if at all it did!!!)

It is not the physical frame of Sai first; it is the shabda Brahman AUM first …. and all avatars can be meditated and realized through this AUM!!!!!

start with AUM, transcend , exist as THAT , TRANSCENDING EVEN AUM !!!!!.. It is possible; it is possible, before the wink of eye gets over!!!!

Tan Man Praan Mein Sai Aum, Gagan Pavan Mein Sai Aum

Sankhya says- From Him, upon the vibration AUM, emerged 5 elements and the 24 tatwa- all the body of all , all the minds of all, all the prana of all,  in macro and then in microcosm- retrace to their origin AUM

Shayan Swapan Mein Sai Aum

An entire upanishad mandukya is dedicated to relate A - with the waking state , then U with the dream state and then M- with the deep sleep state and the silence after M with THE (thuriya) STATE!!!

If the dream state itself dreams of SAI AUM, then how wonderful is the next state- deep sleep, shushupti- where there is neither body, nor mind, nor intellect.. and then….. who is ever there to describe THE STATE beyond deep sleep- THURIYA or THURIYA TEETHA?/!!!!!!!!!!

Nayan Nayan Mein Sai Aum

O, why can't a treatise be created to explain this one line!!!!

When all the objects of the entire creation merged in ME the pure consciousness, at the subtlest state, how can the nayan (vision/ wisdom) experience anything else except my own SELF which was ever ME, ME, the PURE ME?????

Nayan saw all objects without.. in several births……

A sadguru's nayan / glance fell on me….

His nayan became my nayan ever since then……..

He saw, smiled at the PURE ME, then…..

He gave me his nayan ever since then…..

how do i see anything else with His nayan, as HE, except THE PURE EXISTENCE?????????

how can the physical eyes ever super impose now on HIS NAYAN????????

from where do i fetch creation now, when His nayan is THE nayan????????

For HIM, MY GURU, MY LORD, lending His nayan was spontaneous and He is there to lend His nayan to the entire humanity - HE IS THE SAHASRA SEERSHA PURUSHA……!!!!!

In return, I could only give HIM, THE PURE EXISTENCE HIM, one thing as my dakshina…. NE… He did not wait for me to offer...(CHITACHORA), HE CHOSE TO TAKE IT FROM ME AS DAKSHINA FOR EVER---- AND  WHAT ELSE CAN THE OFFERING BE, EXCEPT MY EYES, WORLDLY, HITHERTO AWARE OF CREATION, CREATED AND THE CREATOR, (Jagath, Jiva and Iswara)!!!!!!

Will I not now say- NAYAN NAYAN HAI (IS) SAI AUM???????

When all objects are gone, the entire creation consumed in MY SELF, not only Nayan Nayan of ME/ HE but collectively, ANY THING WHICH CAN BE EXPERIENCED IS JUST THE AUM, PURE… IS…. PURE BE….., PURE "     "!!!!

And…….., the Journey is over!!!!!

Love.

PS- Janam maran mein Sai Aum, to the composer, has no relevance after NAYAN NAYAN HAI SAI AUM!!!!

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.
