GOAPNIYATAA (SECRECY)

There is no need of secrecy in the life of an ideal person. A yogi’s (saint’s) life is an open book. When you lead your life without cunningness and cleverlessness, you need not require to keep secrecy. But, for the betterment of physical life, there is some works which privacy is essential. It is said that bhojan (to take food), bhog (to enjoy) and yog (penance) should be done very secretly. ‘Na vishwaset kumitre cha, mitrechaapi na vishwaset; Kadaachit kupitan mitran sarvan guhyan prakaashayet.’ One should neither trust on bad friends nor believe blindly on good friends. In anger, he may disclose all secrets.
I remember Pt. Lakshaman Jha’s two friends’ real story. They two were bosom from their very childhood. They were sharing each other’s every secrecy. On occasions, they went each other’s homes and enjoyed the events. They offered costly gifts to each other. In the Acharya-exam., they met after the examination, discussed with each other and knew each other’s right and wrong answers. When the result published, the right answer writer got less marks. But, he knew that his friend had written wrong answers. He challenged the examiner. The copies were rechecked. The second became first. After sometime, there was only one vacancy. The topper got the job. Now, the two became daggers-drawn.
However, this is not always true. There are examples when one friend has sacrificed everything for other. Spiritualism always advises to trust. ‘Vishwase fal dayakah.’ You will get result according to reliance. Ram Krishna Paramhans talked with Maa Bhagvati Kali like his own mother. Sankaracharya, Maharshi Raman saw all these things like dreams. Only Self is true and all other things are false. ‘Samjho jag ko na nira sapnaa, path aap prashast karo apnaa.’ The Indian poet’s line should not be ignored. Saakaar and Niraakaar are both true. Have faith on Guru and He will clear the suspicion.--------Namo Bhagvate shree Ramanay.
