Know Your Guru 2

[Guest guest]

Om Namah Sivaya

 

The ministers were waiting in the Durbar Hall for

hours together. King Virasindhu did not open his eyes

for days together. Then the ministers reflected: The

king is in Samadhi now. We do not know when he will

return from the Samadhi. We will have to manage the

affairs of the State.” They removed the ring from his

finger and used it for putting the seal in the papers

of the State.

 

The king opened his eyes after six years, and asked

the ministers: “Where is my Guru?” The ministers

replied: “O venerable king! The Guru said a word to

your majesty and vanished at once. You are standing

here like a statue for the last six years. We are

conducting the affairs of the state with the aid of

your ring. Here is the seal of your ring in all the

registers and papers.”

 

The king was struck with awe and wonder. He thought

within himself: “Six years have passed like a second.

I enjoyed SUPREME BLISS. I have no desire to rule the

State after tasting the supreme bliss.” He left the

palace and entered the forest and sat in Samadhi.

 

The force of Yogic Samskaras of the king that was

generated by the practice of Yoga in his previous

birth, helped him in the attainment of the beatitude

in this birth. Those who have not much piety and

religious inclination in this birth should do Japa,

Kirtan, meditation, and study of religious books. They

should live in the company of sages. They will develop

good religious Samskaras. This will be a valuable

asset for them in the next birth. They will start the

practice of Yoga in the next birth in the early age.

 

It is difficult to say in what form the Guru or the

Lord will appear before you to initiate you. He may

come in the form of a leper as Sri Hanuman did, or in

the form of an untouchable as Lord Krishna did, or in

the form of a groom as Lord Siva did. The aspirants

must be very careful and vigilant to detect the Lord

in the various forms which He assumes.

 

Sivaya Namah
