Guru Tattva - An Inner Essence- Part 6 By Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji.

[Guest guest]

Dear Members,

 

The tears shed by Rama for Sita shows His ‘viraga’

(intense yearning). His ‘viraga’ was greater than that

of Sita. Bhagvan deeply desires to take the jivas unto

Him. His desire is deeper than that of the jiva who

wishes to join the Lord. In Ramayana, Rama’s lamenting

depicts this only. This Maruti (Hanuman) is the Guru

here. God will not come to man directly. Since, Guru

makes even the impossible possible, Guru is greater

than God. Even when God calls each and every jiva to

come to Him, none goes to Him! When all efforts of God

go in vain, a Guru comes to this execute this job of

God. He cleanses the jiva and places him on the Feet

of Bhagavaan. Therefore, Guru tattva becomes far

greater than Bhagavat tattva!

Therefore, Hanuman went to Sri Lanka and met Sita

piratti. He was going to bring the ‘jiva’ and

Bhagavaan together. What should the Guru know? He

should be able to know the heart’s desire on both

sides. Guru should be one who knows the craving of

both - the bhakta’s to attain Bhagavaan and

Bhagavaan’s to take the bhakta unto Him. He should not

forsake the Bhakta saying that he cannot attain

Bhagavaan; and he should not tell Bhagavaan, ‘This

Bhakta will not come to You.’ Guru should be one who

knows the ‘mano bhaava’ of both.

 

When Vibhishana comes to the Feet of the Lord in

surrender none of His (Rama’s) advisers speak in

support of Vibhishana. One says that an asura should

not be trusted. He must have come to spy into the

strength of the army and hence should not be trusted.

Another says that he had forsaken his own brother and

thus was not trustworthy. Only one person supports

Vibhishana. And that is Hanuman. Hanuman realizes the

deep yearning of Vibhishana. Vibhishana waits with

bated breath, “Will not someone speak in support of

me?” Hanuman also realizes the deep yearning of Lord

Rama. Rama waits anxiously, “Will not someone speak in

support of Vibhishana?”

 

The debate was only over the acceptance of Vibhishana

and not those who had accompanied him. What does this

mean? If Vibhishana was accepted it automatically

meant that those who were behind him would also be

accepted. Thus, if you reach an ‘uttama Guru’ and he

attains Moksha, you are also assured of Moksha.

Bhagavaan does not question those coming behind an

‘uttama Guru’. Unquestioningly all followers are taken

in. Thus, there was no debate on accepting the

followers of Vibhishana.

 

!!! Will Continue !!!
