True Nature of Worship by Pt. Shriram Sharma Acharya..Part - 6

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

 

Millions of people can be seen daily performing prayers and rituals. They

also feel that they are performing *upasana*. Several other men also believe

and regard them as *upasaka*. But this *upasana *of theirs never succeeds in

providing the desired results. Neither do they attain any greatness nor any

spiritual peace. Even after their prayers and rituals they speak lies,

display cunningness, remain enslaved in anger, greed and attachment, and as

a result they neither attain mental calmness nor any spiritual contentment.

As they are, they continue to suffer from grief, unhappiness, torture, pain,

doubts, dearth and discontentment. They continue to remain sick with worldly

passions and thralldoms as always. The divine qualities of the Supreme Soul

that are commonly denoted by the names of love, brotherhood, mercy,

dearness, bliss and peace etc are not found in them. Despite thinking (and

talking about) of the Almighty hundreds of times these people remain blank

like the trunk of a barren tree; neither new leaflets bloom, nor any

blossoming flowers occurs in them.

 

It is an absolute truth that by performing *up³san³*of the Supreme Soul the

noble virtues of God get transferred into the individual self, there is no

denying this fact. A person who is seen to perform *up³san³ *but no signs of

refinement towards greatness are visible in him then any wise man can

undoubtedly proclaim that the *up³san³ *of this fellow is not a true *up³san³

*but merely a ritual, a show off, an ostentation, a mockery….
