[Guest guest]

Jai Gurudev! I am coming back to this group after about four years.

 

During this time I have done some introspection and also thought

about my position towards Gurudev.

 

His blessings to me and the love that I have received as a blessing

from him; inspite of the terrible, terrible mistakes, ommissions in

dainik sadhana and mantra jap I have commited. I am like a small

child who inspite of the ever present watchfulness of his loving

mother commits the same stupid childish acts and is yet loved and

protected by the mother and unconditionally loved and feels protected

in her warm embrace. Gurudev has been such a mother and father to me.

No wonder we have the shloka- Twameiv Maata chaa Pita Twameiv;

Twameiv Bandhu chaa Sakhaa Twameiv....

 

After several years of being a shishya of Pujyapad Gurudev

Nikhileshwaranand ji, I am finally beginning to realize the meaning

of his word 'the big leap' I quote him, "EK BAAR CHALAANG LAGANI

HOGI! CHALAANG LAGA KAR TO DEKHO!"

 

Gurudev is the beginning and the ultimate end of all sadhanas. All

one can do is to worship his lotus feet; all other things don't

matter. Nikhil Stotras, Guru Gita, Nikhileshwarananda Panchak,

Durlabhopanishad- all of these indicate what I am trying to convey.

Prem for Gurudev's lotus feet is the key! Jai Gurudev! It's a

blessing that he has taken us as his shishya. Nothing else is

important. We are really blessed!

 

Kabir Yeh Ghar Prem Ka, Khala Ka Ghar Nahin

Sees Utaare Hath Kar, So Pasey Ghar Mahin

 

Kabir, this is the abode of love

Not the house of an aunt

Only that one can enter here

Who has relinquished all pride

 

Kabir in this doha attempts to explain valor and fearlessness in love

and devotion. A person who is able to defeat the passions of Anger,

Carnality, Attachment, Greed and Enmity – the enemies within

– is the

valiant one. To be a lover or a true devotee is the job of a warrior

and not of a coward. For love demands complete surrender of one's ego

and a spirit full of compassion and poise.

 

The abode of love is not like a visit to an aunt's house where the

social rules of entertaining guests may be available. Instead in this

abode of love one enters with the spirit of giving or complete

surrender.

 

Is a genuine offering to the Lord possible without surrendering

oneself? Similarly, is love possible between two people when it is

based on conditions?

 

Translate and meditate.

 

 

 

Sada Guru's heart is a place full of love and not your aunt's home.

You may enter it only when you leave your wisdom and knowledge on the

ground, becoming empty as a pot. Fill your heart with love for your

Sad guru's lotus feet; Only then will gurudev bless us with the

knowledge we seek. As long as we consider ourselves capable of

performing sadhanas, reading books and understanding spirituality and

siddhashram, we will fail to get Guru Kripa!
