KAA CHUP SAADHI RAHEHU BALBAANAA

                                                               Lalan always remained silent in the class. I always saw him in thoughtful mood. By physical appearance, he was like a speechless, dull, rustic child. So many other boys were more out spoken and self-appraisers. In reality, they had no depth; rather they had only scratching knowledge. They had smart looks and were well dressed. More often, our eyes are deceived. What I think real may be false and what seems wrong may be right. One day it happened that Lalan and I met in the mango orchard near our hostel, where only we two were present. I started talking about a topic, which had not been taught in the class. To my surprise! He was the master of the topic where as I had simply scratching knowledge, upon which I was priding myself.

                                                         Once I attended one week gathering of KFI at Rajghat. My senior Mr SPS took me there. He is a very religious person having knowledge of all religious books of Hinduism and of so many other religions. In the gathering, I saw so many males and females of different countries and of different cultures wearing peculiar dresses. Not knowing them, I commented before SPS, ‘Sir, perhaps they have simply come on tour to enjoy the new places and they have nothing to do with KFI ideologies.’ He did not answer and kept mum. Groups were made to discuss about the speeches of the main speakers. When I heard them and found their introduction, I became amazed. They were famous personalities of their fields. Before them, I was a learner and thought as if I were a tourist and I had nothing to do with the ideologies.

दुष्ट



'दुष्ट संग जनि देहु विधाता'. जे विना कारणे ककरो दुःख देव' के मौका नहि चूकय, दोसर के दुःखी देखि अति प्रसन्न हुअय आ  ककरो नीक नहि चाहय; सैह दुष्ट थिक. I recall a story of my childhood. A traveller being tired, slept in the shade of a tree. After a while the direction of the sun changed and it's scorching rays came directly over the traveller's face through the gap of the leaves. The saint among birds, the swan saw this and could not tolerate. It spreaded it's feathers over the gap of the leaves. The traveller again became away from the sun and went in deep sleep. A crow came in the tree. It saw the scene and laughed at the swan's foolishness. In the mind of the wicked, the saint has such a very view. According to it's nature, the scene became unbearable for the crow. This is the normal feature of the wicked, unable to tolerate nobilty. The crow sat just below the swan and right above the traveller. It secreted on the face of the traveller and flew away. The traveller awoke and saw above. He saw the swan. He became too much angry on the swan and killed it by his arrow. This always happens. A wicked is seldom caught. So, avoid the company of wickeds.                                                                                                         When I come in the contact of a saint, I can not remain ungraced. The axe is bound to have the scent of the sandal wood if it cuts it. The wicked must give their signs if you go to them. 'Kaajal ki kothali me ek daag laagi hai pay laagee hai'. Ramkrishna Paramhans used to wash the sitting place of the wicked who came to see him. He had the vision to see the inner views of every person. What about the great saint like him, every one has the capacity to know the inner views of others. I willingly fall in trap due to my greed & past deeds. By the grace of The Almighty, I can put myself away from these wickeds. -------NAMO BHAGVATE SHREE RAMANAY.

TASHMAI SHREE GURUWE NAMAH

                                                                             “ Agyaan timiraandhasya gyaanaanjan shalaakayaa; Chakshurunmeelitan yen tasmai shree guruwe namah.” I was wandering in the darkness of ignorance. A man developed my eyes with a stick of anjan (kajal- a black colour applied on the eyebrow) of knowledge. I began to see the universe vividly. I became able to see good and bad. I came to know the humanity and animality. Briefly, I took re-birth as a man.

                                        The place of the guru is too much higher than the parents. Suppose you make a statue. Some body gives life in it. Who should be called superior? Obviously, the life-giving person. Without knowledge, we are not better than a statue. It is better to die than to wander like an animal without knowledge.

                                                                     Parents are called first gurus of a child. Hence, they are creators, tamers, and educators. That is why they are superior to all. Think about the children who do not serve their parents. We cannot repay the debt of our parents even offering our lives. ‘Sheesh diye jo guru mile, to bhee sastaa jaan’. It is cheaper to have guru even offering our heads.

                                                   ‘Aatmaiv guruh’. The soul is the very guru. It is foolishness to wander hither and thither in search of guru, when this is in everyone’s heart. ‘Tera sai tujh me jyon puhpan me baas; Kastooree kaa mrig jyon phir phir soonghe ghaas.’ God is in you like the scent in flowers. The scented kastooree is in the very deer, but it smells grass again and again to have the very perfume. ------- On Guru Purnima, 3^rd July,2012.--- Ohm Namo bhagvate shree Ramanaay.
