Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Divine Message of His Holiness Shri Datta Swami I am the knowledge, love and bliss Vedas call Me Parabrahman Knowledge, love and bliss concentrated Multiplied by infinity is Myself. My power is called Maya, Which is inexplicable for you I keep this secret of Maya with Me only Otherwise, human beings will catch My hair To keep the soul always at My feet I do not disclose the secret of Maya By this, the soul always surrenders to Me Otherwise, he will claim himself as the Lord. Through Maya only I created this world I enjoy by seeing this everlasting cinema For enjoyment I created ignorance Which covers Me and I forget Myself I am not sleeping and not caught by dream I am dreaming in the day opening My eyes The ignorance is at My will to stay or not Unlike the ignorance of a night dreamer My awareness is not your awareness If it is so, when you weep I should weep All should also weep at the same time Your awareness is negligible part of Mine. All the souls put together along with this world Form a pinhead drop in Me, almost nil I am the mightiest ocean of knowledge, love and bliss Which are the characteristics of consciousness Even all the souls weep together at a time I cannot be touched, all those being negligible Awareness of awareness is consciousness, no doubt You are seeing only the qualitative similarity Drop and ocean are qualitatively water, may be Can the drop become the ocean by this equality? Water is Brahman but ocean is Eswara You are already Brahman but not Eswara Sankara touched this qualitative aspect only To attract Bhuddists who were atheists then, He told “Oh drop! You are already water” But the drop thought that is was ocean Bhuddist was fooled like this by Sankara He has to accept his existence and If He is Brahman Qualitative realization was brought like this That is the beginning stage, which should be so Slowly when he analyzes the qualitative aspect And goes into quantitative angle, truth is seen He realizes that He is only water and not ocean Then he surrenders to ocean to become devotee Knowledge by analysis leads to devotion Devotion needs the ocean to be present before eyes For this purpose the ocean enters a human body drop Through His power of Maya, called human incarnation. “Anoraneeyan mahato maheeyan” Veda says so This means that the ocean has entered the drop In the same time it is ocean and also the drop That is the human incarnation, which is God and man. This human incarnation is called Parabrahman Which is greater than Brahman, soul, and Eswara Brahman is water, Eswara is ocean and drop is soul All these are quite logical terms to grasp. Parabrahman is greater than all these The word “Para” means “greater” actually It is greater than the drop, ocean and water Since it is the ocean hiding in a drop by Maya You can not face Eswara directly at any cost By that force, you will disappear along with this world You can face Parabrahman, which is the ocean That speaks with you hidden in a drop like you As the ocean is hidden in the drop by Maya The ocean can enter you also by the same Maya But the ocean independently can not hear you The voice of the drop is no where in the voice of ocean Therefore, approach Parabrahman and serve Him, As a servant without aspiring anything from Him If He wishes, you can get the samadhi In which the Ocean enters you as a shadow. Sankara never told that you are Eswara He told that you are only Brahman Awareness of a drop-like awareness is useless Awareness of an ocean-like awareness is greatest You can not achieve this samadhi by your effort Your effort is not heard by the roaring ocean The ocean comes down to hear you in this way If you do not use this opportunity, you are lost When the king comes to hear the public Your are keeping silent staying in your home When the king is busy in a battlefield You go there and submit your complaint! This is the state of Advita philosopher He is the foolish disciple of Sankara Egoism and jealousy cover his eyes He can not see the ocean in a drop But he, a drop, wants to contain the ocean How can the ocean enter him who is a drop? He discards the technique and the example How can he become the example by the same technique? Therefore, follow Satguru who is the ocean in a drop If you follow another drop what is the use? You are a rabbit and If you see the Lion You will vanish on the spot with fear. Therefore, the Lion came as a rabbit Remember, the Lion is covered by the skin of rabbit It is not at all a rabbit, it speaks “I am Lion” You rabbit! Don’t imitate that rabbit like Lion.
