knowledge v/s Wisdom v/s Bhakti- Divine Love

[Guest guest]

Namaste.

 

Even Madhusudana Saraswati, the celebrated author of the Advaita-

Siddhi (which contains a masterly exposition of Advaita philosophy),

had to fall from his high pedestal of Self-sovereignty (the state of

Jivanmukti, living freedom from worldly bondage) fascinated by the

transcendent glow of that unearthly beauty. He says:

 

advaita vIdhI pathikair upAsyAH

svArAjya siMhAsana labdha dIkSAH

zaThena kenapi vayaM haThena

dAsIkRtA gopavadhU viTena

 

(Sri Madhusudana Sarasvati)

 

Respected and adored by the followers of the path of Advaita and

having obtained a passport to ascend the throne of Self-sovereignty,

I was made to surrender my all (though much against my will) at the

feet of that urchin who constantly follows the footsteps of the

cowherd-maids (of Brindaban).

 

caurAgragaNyam puruSaM namAmi -

 

My sincere salutations to

the topmost Thief, Lord Krishna!

 

Jaya Sri Radhey!
