Let’s Explore The Purity Of Divine &Unconditional Love On “14thFebruary”

The world as a whole has forgotten the real meaning of the word love. Love has been so abused and crucified by man that very few people know what true love is. Just as oil is present in every part of the olive, so love permeates every part of creation. But to define love is very difficult, for the same reason that words cannot fully describe the flavor of an orange. You have to taste the fruit to know its flavor. So with love.“Ordinary love is selfish, darkly rooted in desires and satisfactions,”.“Divine love is without condition, without boundary, without change. The flux of the human heart is gone forever at the transfixing touch of pure love.But today Youth is keen on following the western custom like ‘Valentine’s Day’ forgetting great Bharatiya culture. Such celebrations do not exhibit true love and gratitude but is an excuse for enjoyment and is just a formality without any meaning.Valentine’s Day which has no spiritual orientation, only ruins the morality,makes the teenagers to indulge more in immoral activities,a huge loss of semen; loss of semen leads to loss of immunity and depletion of the vital energy. They become weak and live in a pitiable condition. Their lives are completely ruined, while they are also deprived of proper physical and mental growth. Such young people are plagued by anemia, forgetfulness and general weakness and many other sexual diseases. They are becoming more weak and lustful, thereby suffering a gradual degeneration. Youth drastically drag in to the destructive well full of lust and desires; imitation of western culture by adolescents totally diverted them from their original path,which ultimately leads to major development crisis of bharat desh. Lustful heart is named as love but in reality it is discredit to love. There is a lot difference between love and lust; lust drags in to bottom and it produces loss of semen, anxiety and excitement but love is at top, divine and creates a continual innovative ideas ,no loss of stored semen and shows the affinity in every one. As per the Innocenti Report card no.3, at least 1.25 million teenagers become pregnant each year in the 28 OECD nations. Of those, approximately half a million seek abortion and approximately three quarters of a million become spinster mothers. 4,94,000 teen births are accounted for by the United States. Every year some 3 million American teenagers contract a sexually transmitted infection (about 1 in every 4 sexually experienced teenagers). Overall, roughly one-quarters of the nation’s sexually active teens have been infected by a sexually transmitted disease (STD). In one act of unprotected sex with an infected partner, a teenage woman has a 1 in 100 chance of contracting HIV, a 1 in 3 chance of contracting genital herpes and 1 in 2 chance of correcting gonorrhea. Approximately a quarter of all new cases of HIV/AIDS are diagnosed in young people under the age of 22. More than US $ 400 million from federal and state funds has been spent on ‘abstinence only’ campaigns in American schools. Today, one in three US high schools has an abstinence only policy on sex education.Hence valentine’s day proved to be cruse on humanity which not only destroys the teenagers but also ruins the morality of teenagers.It works pandemically.
Lord Krishna said,”Whenever dharma declines and the purpose of life is forgotten, I manifest myself on earth. I am born in every age to protect the good, to destroy evil, and to reestablish dharma.”
Similarly when the whole universe is diverted from their original path,their childrens are forgetting moral values then only pujya sant shri Asharamji bapuji has shown them direction.Only By the divine inspiration of pujyabapuji “parents worship day ” replaces valentine day.According to Shiv Bhakti Puran,”One who circumambalate 7 times around ones parents” woluld get the benefit of all the pilgrimages.Glory Of parents worship day is also sung in our Hindu holy scriptures,”Matru devo bhava”,”Pitru Deva bhava,”Saarv teerth mai mata”,”Saarv dev mai pita”.

The Wheel Of Divine Life

Salutations to the Supreme Guru, the Immortal Spirit, the common unifying entity present in all. Salutations to the torch-bearers of knowledge divine. Salutations, to all seekers of truth who live the life divine Adorations for all holy aspirations. Benedictions for the fruition of every noble endeavour. The eternal mysteries of the human spirit, the ever-restless and dissatisfied emotional being of man, the inadequacies of the temporal existence, the failure of the intellect to solve the problems of life satisfactorily. The baffling gulf that separates great ideals from rude realities—all tend to turn one’s mind towards God. Divine life is the process through which one progresses towards the realisation of God, and achieves the remedy of all the ills that life is heir to.Guru is the guide who leads the aspirant on the way, and the aspirant is the pilgrim who toils on the ascent of divine life.A progressive refinement of the mental and moral make up of man is the primary objective of divine life. It begins with dedication to some fundamental principles such as truth, purity, and non-injury, the practice of which automatically entails the voluntary enforcement of self-discipline, and ensuing of the process of purification.The implementation of these three fundamental principles in the daily life of the individual, in an impeccable manner, itself constitutes the vital part of divine life.Human nature has two sides, the negative and the positive, one trying to preponderate over the other. There are invariably the “Dr. Jekyll” and “Mr. Hyde” elements in every man. When the “Hyde” element dominates, one becomes a social derelict, bringing upon oneself and others all the evil consequences of the boundless passions and destructive sadism of the instinctive part of one’s being. Yet, there are people who have in them a remarkable measure of the “Jekyll” element, which distinguishes them as great benefactors of society, and who are by far in a better position to be in peace with themselves and with others, too.The positive, ultimately overcomes the negative, though, in common experience, the negative forces hold an irrepressible sway over frequent phases in the lives of the most of the people. But, not so with those who have made a beginning in walking the way of reason, of discretion, prudence, divine life. In them the discriminative mind tries to rule over the instinctive part of their being. Viveka guides their actions, Vairagya sanctifies their motives, and Mumukshutva inspires their endeavours—each of the three deriving its strength and light from the spiritual part of their being.To follow the path of truth, purity and non-injury is implicative of the highest form of self-discipline, amounting to neutralising every negative propensity emanating from the lower nature. Truth necessarily indicates, apart from the chastity of speech, the right sense of values, the courage to implement into action what one knows to be true, though it may not be entirely conducive, or may be even detrimental, to one’s material good. Truth also means the strength of will to abide by all positive principles, a sense of justice an unbiased mind, and recognition of the pervasiveness of its subtle essence in all life.Purity is the touchstone of divine life which should have the power of transmuting all that is negative into the positive. The practice of purity covers the entire range of the culturing of emotions, and whatever is implied by self-restraint. It means the practice of the “Shat-sampat” namely, control of mind, and the senses, tranquillity, forbearance, faith and concentration. Purity is physical and mental, since both are interrelated. Purity of thought naturally leads to purity of action as well as the sublimation of the sex-urge. Purity of motive, of life in general, is preliminary to the practice of truth.Non-injury is love, indicated counterwise. Here self-restraint (Yama) is again incumbent. The meaning of non-injury is complete only when it is implemented whole-heartedly—in thought, speech and action. The principles of love compassion, mercy, fellowship and goodwill are all entwined in the term “non-injury.” Unless these principles are fully practised, the virtue of non-injury remains artificial.Whilst love is a direct expression of non-injury, its logical fruition is in service. That much-maligned term “love”, which is overly misapplied to sensual tomfoolery, selfish attachment, circumstantial sentimentality, emotional fixation, and superimposed self-pity, is, indeed, a rare plant that grows only in the garden of divine life and that has to be continuously tended and nurtured to make it enblossom in all its glory. Love and service are inseparable. So, too, with understanding of, and respect for, the feelings of others. One cannot be said to possess love for humanity, and yet be selfish and callous to the suffering of others. The selfless service is divine love in action.If you are able to cultivate and practise these three basic tenets of divine life, which, in reality, traverse the entire gamut of practical spirituality, then you are on the road to Self-realisation, the ultimate goal of human aspiration. Even a rudimentary success in this path is greatly conducive to one’s peace and happiness, to the worthiness of existence, to the betterment of human nature, to the good of society and the world at large. A collective awareness of the great importance of divine life, with all its pragmatic values, can surely contribute, in a large measure, to the promotion of world-peace, solidarity and fellowship.  Brahmavidya is, in other words, the knowledge of divine life, the central ideal of all spiritual aspirants. In this alone lies the salvation of mankind. May the blessings of the Divine Guru be upon all.

 

 

Guru—The Incarnate Divinity

Guru is the veritable God on earth and he is the true friend and reliable relative.Disciple should prostrate before his Guru, saying to him “O Lord! O Lord! Have mercy on me who has taken shelter in thee. Protect me from the ocean of birth and death.”He who worships the Feet of Guru who is divine, with disinterested devotion, directly attains His Grace.  The disciple cuts off, by means of meditation and the sword of knowledge obtained from the Preceptor and sharpened by service to him, this baseless Ahamkara, which is imbedded in the mind, speech, Pranas, body and wanders in this world, freed of all attachments. Contact with the objects should be avoided till attachment, which taints the mind, is completely cut off by the powerful weapon of intense devotion to Guru. He who practises Yoga, by taking refuge in Guru, is not overcome by various obstacles. The true disciple should, unhesitatingly and without shyness, prostrate on the ground ‘Sashtanga’ as a token of his complete surrender, at the Holy Feet of his Guru. Who so ever devotes himself to the worship and service of Guru without expectation of reward will never go wrong, nor will he ever lose the benefit of such worship and service.He is verily purified and attains salvation who daily studies the sacred Guru Gita, containing the light of wisdom. He who delights in the Glory of His Guru and in narrating his Guru’s glory to others, shall truly attain Guru’s Grace.In the ignorance-dispelling Presence of Guru, who verily is God, the Absolute,—in His Presence shall all thy doubt’s be dispelled, like snow before the rising Sun. “O Great and Most Revered Guru, I bow to Thee in reverence. Pray, instruct me how I may attain unfailing devotion to Thy Lotus-Feet and how my mind may always rest in devotion at thy Merciful Feet”—thus in all humility and self-surrender should the true disciple (prostrate) and plead before his Guru.Glory to the most exalted Guru who is God-visible! Glory to the Sacred Scriptures that have sung the praises of the Guru! Glory to the true disciple that has found his sole refuge in such a Guru.
