Guest guest Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Swamiji says that only one who is bound seeks liberation. Someone who is in love doesn't want to be liberated. They just want to stay in love. They are already there. Remember the story of Narad Muni who came to the three sadhus. The first sadhu said, "When will I get liberated?" Narad said, "25,000 liftimes." The sadhu said, "Oh. no!" The second sadhu said, "When will I get liberated?" Narad said, "50,000 lifetimes." The sadhu said,"Oh, no!" The third sadhu said, "When will I get liberated?" Narad said, "100,000 lifetimes." The sadhu said, "You mean I am going to make it?!" In that moment he was liberated. Liberation is a realization that can happen in an instant. That is why Divine Mother continuously pleads with her children to "Please Wake Up! " In the Chandi it says that whoever becomes a celestial singer just l ives with the Goddess all of the time. Why would we want liberation when we love singing to the Goddess? There is no liberation for those who are not bound. Love God, open heart, and sing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
