Guest guest Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Radhe Krishna To all, When cattle try to devour a newly planted mango sapling, it struggles to live and grow more leaves. But surpassing these struggles, when the plant grows into a tree, then the cattle is no more a threat to the tree.  Likewise, when one's devotion is in its initial stages, the ills of the world affect him to a great extent. When he continues to chant, with patience and perseverance, his bhakti becomes strong enough and the ills of the world don't affect him anymore. ----Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji ---------------------------                         Saalokya, Saaroopya, Saameepya and Saayujya Saalokya, Saaroopya, Saameepya and Saayujya is generally explained as —- When a person worships [does upaasana of] a Deity he attains to the world/plane [loka] of that Deity. This is called ‘Saalokya’. He then attains ‘Saaroopya’ – i.e. he attains the form of that Deity. Then, he attains ‘Saameepya’ i.e he attains proximity to that Deity. Finally, he becomes one with that Deity ‘Saayujya’. Sri Swamiji explains this in a very wonderful way: When a person does incessant chanting of a Naama in the same place, divinity is created in that place around him. This is verily ‘Saalokya’ [same loka]. That is he attains to that world/loka, here. He then attains the beauty of that Deity or in the case of the worship of a Guru, his gait, talk and everything else becomes just like that of the Guru – ‘Saaroopya’ [same form]. Then, the Deity comes into his heart, which is verily ‘Saameepya’ [proximity] and finally he becomes one with ‘It’ and that is ‘Saayujya. These are not really external factors as deemed but happen wherever the Nama is chanted incessantly in one place.’ Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji New Year 'MAGIC SPELL' Discourse in tamil , Mass Prayer with Mahamantra - Jan 1 2010....Enjoy & share the Bliss....
