Our Vedas (Certain Revelations) - Part 3 - By Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji.

[Guest guest]

Dear Members,

 

Our Religion does not speak on ‘prachãra’ at all -

nowhere, neither in the Upanishads, in the Vedas, in

the Shastras nor in the ‘Itishãsãs’, can we find

anything spoken on ‘prachãra’. Has our Religion spoken

on ‘prachãra’? No! Certainly not. The Vedas say, “Do

‘pravachanam’ (discourse) daily. Do not give up

‘pravachana’.” Is this ‘pravachana’ to be done for

others? No! No! It is only sadhana for you! Why should

‘pravachana’ be performed? Not for others. It has been

prescribed as a sadhana for the one who performs the

discourse. Our Religion has never said, ‘Preach others

this and that.’ Not just this. It goes beyond this. In

fact, our Religion says, ‘Do not preach!’

 

What does it say? ‘Do not speak such matters to

someone who casually walks in but to one who comes

with deep yearning. Speak this to one who listens to

this with ‘shraddha’ (faith and interest). It is

enough if it is spoken to those who are interested.

Since it is a high subject matter there is no need for

you to gather all around and speak about it.’

Our Religion then goes on to say, ‘Instead of

preaching practice it (‘anushtãnam’)!’ There is no use

of preaching dharma without you standing on dharma.

Therefore, it is better for you to stand in dharma

rather than preach dharma. Seeing you stand in dharma

someone will surely correct his ways. Let someone

correct his ways or remain as he is. Your standing in

dharma itself is a great boon to the world. It will

bring in world’s welfare.

 

We sit here in this place and perform some japa,

dhyana, puja or tapas. This is such a big world

consisting of crores and crores of people. In such a

huge world someone in some corner sits and does some

spiritual practice sincerely. It is said that there

are innumerable invisible ‘lokãs’ (worlds). You may

question, “What is the use of someone sitting in a hut

in some corner and doing tapas? How will it bring in

welfare to the world?” or you may question, “Is this

not selfishness (‘swãrtam’)?” But, though are many

countries like America, Africa, Australia there is

only one Sun. Each country does not have a separate

Sun. Just as the whole world’s welfare is taken care

by the one Sun above just so when someone sits in some

corner and does proper japa or dhyana or tapas it

brings about welfare to the world. He is like the Sun.

There is no need for him to do ‘prachãra’ in the

world. The Sun does not say anything to anyone; in the

mere presence of its rays, light (‘prakãsa’), in its

‘sannidhya’ (presence) things happen in the world.

Likewise, his ‘tapo bala’ will in itself bring about

the welfare of the world. This is the ‘siddhanta’

(philosophy) of our Religion.
