Our State is Naturally in Paramatma

 

I have said many times and am saying it again - Our salvation,

realization of Paramatma, attaining the Supreme Spirit, the Natural

State, The Essence (tattva) is best of all. Just like a traveller, does not stay

in any particular place, we too cannot stay anywhere in this world for long. Our

home is Paramatma's home. Wherever the father's home is, that is the child's

home as well. Therefore our state is naturally in Paramatma. It is a mistake

that what we see in this world, we begin to consider ours and for us. Paramatma

is ever present. There is nothing to be done to attain Paramatma. It is not

about doing. That which is ever present, what has to be done to attain That?

That which has a beginning and an end, that which is born and destroyed, that

which meets and later departs, none of this is ours. NONE ! That which is ours,

was always there and will always remain. This body, mind, senses all of this

belongs to the world. Give that which is not ours (body etc), back to the world

and that which IS (Self) back to Paramatma.

 

What to ask Bhagwaan (God) for? It is God's work to give devotion and

salvation. It is His work to shower us with Love. The wealth, the

property of father belongs to the son. It is the same with us. We belong to

Bhagwaan. He has said so clearly " Mamevaansho " (Gita 15/7). You are my very own

" ansh " (part). We are Bhagwan's and Bhagwaan is ours. The world is only a

traveller's view. It is not where we have to stay. Whereas Bhagwaan IS and

therefore ever attained. Since Bhagwaan is already ours, what is there to ask of

Him? Should we ask Bhagwaan, You become mine, when He is already ours? It is the

Truth, It is the Principle - We are His and He is ours. Therefore doing all

these spiritual practices - naam japa (name recitation), kirtan (chanting),

bhajan (devotion and worship), dhyaan (meditation) , all this is done because it

appears sweet to Bhagwaan. When a child calls out " maa maa " , then mother feels

happy. There was an incident where a very old saintwas running a high fever. He

was calling out to the mother. It appeared strange, as he had left family many

decades back, but here " Maa " is Bhagwaan (God), otherwise what has it got to do

with him after so many years. " Twaameva sarvam " You are my everything.

Bhagwaan (God) is notto be attained. He is ever attained. Our sight (drishti) is

on the world that is the mistake we make. As such there is nothing to do. That

which is not acquired, has to be acquired, but that which IS, what is to be done

for that? Paramatma IS ever present and He is ours - Vasudeva Sarvam.

 

I have said many times... " Hari durlabha nahim jagatamem, harijana

duralabha hoya, hari heryaan saba jaga milai, harijana kahim eka hoya. "

 

" God is not difficult to attain in this world, but a devotee of God is

attained with great difficulty. If our attention , our sight (drishti)

is on Bhagwaan, then Bhagwaan can be found everywhere, but a devotee of God is

only in some places. "

 

The devotees of God are not found everywhere, but God can be found at

all places. Wherever a devotee resolves to behold Bhagwaan (God), there Bhagwaan

appears. Just like when child says mother I am yours and she is happy,

similarly, Ramji I am yours and Ramji is happy. It is not a new thing that you

are Ramji's, but still He is happy. That which is Ours, nothing has to be done

to attain it. That which is changing, born and destroyed, has a beginning and an

end, that which comes and goes, all this is not ours. Simply accept these

points. This body is not ours. If it were ours, then we should be able to not

let it fall sick, nor allow it to die. If it were ours, we would have greater

control over it. Then how it is dying on us? Bhagwaan is ever ours.... even in

hell He iswith us... it is natural, it is innate.

 

It is you alone who has to believe this because mistakenly you had

forgotten it, but acutally it IS. Paramatma is " sarva samarth " Almighty, but he

is incapable: (asamarth) and weak in wiping out our feeling of belonging to Him

(apnaapan). Bhagwaan simply IS and we have an eternalrelationship with

Bhagwaan.
