SWAMIJI’S SANDESH… THE SPIRITUAL BOND BETWEEN A ‘SELF – REALIZED’ GURU AND A ‘TRUE’ DEVOTEE IS ETERNAL

thetreasuredivine21 Comments

Swamiji says that the spiritual cord that binds a self-realized guru and a true, faithful and loyal devotee connects them for eternity… is ever-lasting. A Guru keeps dispelling darkness from His true devotee’s soul, not only in this lifetime but transcends in the after-life too. 

The purity of the divine love that exists between a ‘sachcha sant‘ and a ‘sachcha bhakt‘ is not restricted to the physical body in this lifetime alone but is eternal, spaceless and timeless. 

*** A self realized guru, akin to Lord Krishna, continues to love, watch and take care of the spiritual welfare of a ‘saccha bhakt’… who has left this world … in the same manner in which He had taken care of him while he was alive. ***

The divinity of this love is difficult to comprehend but can only be felt and experienced as it touches the soul of a ‘true’ devotee.

The divine nature of this love… the strength of this unbreakable spiritual bond… is in no way affected by the passage of time, state of the body and the nature of space. It simply exists… is there… and can be sensed and experienced only by the ‘saccha sant’ and a ‘saccha bhakt’.

What good is a guru if he doesn’t deliver at the time of a true devotee’s death…!

MAKE PEACE WITH A GOOD, GENUINE PERSON EVEN IF HE IS IN THE WRONG

Swamiji draws our attention to the importance of winning over and befriending a good individual once again, who has drifted away from us, either due to a misunderstanding or a cause that has angered or displeased him.

Swamiji says… We meet different kinds of people during our journey of life. We bracket them in various categories… good, bad and not so bad, knowing very well that we shouldn’t be doing so. We all have the propensity to judge and discern the smallest speck in the other person’s eye, forgetting all the time that we have a log in our vision and will be judged by others at some point in time.

The time that we spend with each individual enables us to know the true value of each one of them and thus we should remember to leave no stone unturned in pacifying and soothing the ruffled feathers of a person… friend or relative… who we know is ‘genuinely good’… possesses all the traits that a noble soul should have… has always tread the Right path… never spoken the untruth… is the epitome of humility and goodness… but is angry with you. Can you afford to lose the company and friendship of a person who is blessed with such qualities ? A rare gem is hard to find in today’s day and age.

Win him over at any cost even if your ego orders you not to do so !

AN INDIVIDUAL WITH ‘SPECIAL ABILITIES’ CAN ACHIEVE WONDERS

Swamiji reminds us of the importance of urgently changing the deep-rooted, pathetic fallacy that most of us bear towards the handicapped and physically challenged. The false, wrong opinion that has been formed about them that they are weak, helpless and dependent on others in every possible way does not hold much merit.

Swamiji laments that people mostly look at handicapped people with disdain and disrespect as they take it for granted that they are incapable of working in a skilful and able manner. The air of superiority and superficial sympathy that they exude for them wrenches their soul, despite it, they carry on with their lives with quiet dignity, grace and determination.

A physically challenged individual too has the ability to attain self-realisation when he lives a disciplined life, remains steadfast to the principles of righteousness and honesty, is unmindful of the barbs that are hurled at him and remains undettered by the obtacles that this cruel world lays down in his path. His inner strength to stand firm against all odds makes up for the physical strength that he lacks.

Do not under-estimate the indomitable will and firm resolve that God has blessed them with, which enables them to be better than the best.

Swamiji’s Sandesh – “DON’T LET GREED FOR MONEY BLIND YOU.”

Swamiji warns us of the bottomless crevice into which we can fall, headlong, if we allow greed for materialism to consume us. Insatiable desire for money, wealth and affluence can  blind u , unless and until we check ourselves.

Swamiji says – “You must remember that when animals realise that their stomachs are full, they do not hunt further but walk away from the carcass, and never hurt the other animals devouring it. Unfortunately, it is man alone who is unable to draw a line between need and greed and resist the temptation of wanting more. The glitter and sparkle of money makes him crave, pine and long for more constantly.”

You are living a life of delusion if you feel that you can please God with the abundant possessions that you have amassed in this lifetime. Remember, you need money to live a comfortable and secure life but at the same time it is also the root cause of all evil. Utilise this precious lifetime in devoting some time to God, and walk on the path of hard, honest labour.

Greed for money is an evil and it is not good for you. Learn to resist the vile bait of corruption by saying – ‘No. No more. I am content with what I have.’ You can certainly do it if you will to do so. 

My blessings to each one of you.

SWAMIJI’S SANDESH- “YOU CANNOT LIVE BY YOURSELF”

thetreasuredivine18 Comments

Swamiji says – At times people think that they can live and survive by themselves without depending on others.

Pause and reflect for a minute on the improbability of living solely by yourself. You will soon realise the hollowness of these claims if you are left to live by yourselves for merely a day. Are you not dependent on others for the fulfilment of your daily needs and requirements?

What about the food that you eat! Who is producing these crops and food-grains for you? What about your clothes? Who is manufacturing the garments that you wear? And your house? Where have the bricks and mortar been sourced from? Don’t you need a barber to trim your hair! Isn’t everything provided to you by others! You cannot stand for a single moment by yourself if it weren’t for the support that Mother Earth provides you with.

Elevated souls too were dependent on others for their sustenance and survival.

We should remember that we live in an itensely inter-connected world, and have a symbiotic relationship with each other!
