Indian spiritual story: realization


After the Mahabharata war, Arjuna asked Srikrishna once when he went for a walk in the evening.

Krishna, you gave me some advice to enable me to fight that day..

I doubt I forgot all that..

Can I say that one more time?

Krishna said.

Partha.. Do you have any recollection of Arjuna's condition that day?

It was Arjuna in that condition who made Krishna who was the teacher of the song.

Both of them are gone today.

Then Arjuna asked again.

Krishna.. have I forgotten what I heard that day?

Krishna: Never. 

All that will remain in you forever. 

They will help you in the necessary situations of life..

Later, when Lord Krishna passed away, Arjuna, who cried and screamed, slowly stops crying and realizes himself.

He has not gone anywhere, he is sitting inside himself smiling and reminding himself of all those hymns..

There will be many guiding personalities in our life.

Father, mother, husband, wife, friend, partner, lover... they may have come and gone in any role.

When they were alive or with us, sometimes we may have ignored what they told us.

But there is a realization that comes after they leave us.

On that day, we will remember many things that they told us whether they said it or not.

Putting aside all the pretense of being me, we will look for the truth of what they said that day..

Slowly and slowly we will start changing even as them..

But for that, life has to teach some realizations.. lessons.. only!

Wouldn't it be great if we could have those realizations while we are with them instead of waiting for it?

How to eliminate fear!

How does fear arise?  Any thought that causes sorrow will cause fear and any action will also cause fear.  Because pleasures and pains depend on something foreign to us, there is fear depending on it.  It is necessary to develop the mindset that there is no second way to get rid of fear, is it enough to develop that mindset?  It must be firm, what must be done to make it firm?  The consciousness of oneness must come to experience. Advaita is the limitless expression of the consciousness of unity.Meditation is necessary to express and realize that advaita in life, one must approach a guru, follow the advice on the face of the guru, extroverted life and introverted sadhana without being ready for it will be of no use. For there to be fear, there must be a second object, and a second object is consciousness. "Absolute Consciousness is Brahmam" "You are that Brahmam" "This soul is Brahmam" If one meditates on the meaning of such great words, one will have the ...

Indian spirituality: law of nature

How beautiful is God's creation.  Just experience it. If the regulation of nature is violated, the end result will be the opposite.  I f you cross against the law of nature, you will have to go through the punishment of nature.  We depend upon nature's blessings to love, serve, know and experience.  Life is like a fountain flowing effortlessly according to the laws of nature.  If we work in the silence of solitude, we will realize that this I is attached to everything and affects us.  Life is to enjoy and experience the splendor of each and every natural resource, without considering anything as mine. Even if we think that it is mine on the practical level, nothing is ours on the transcendental level.

What is the real solution to life's problems?

How  beautiful is the  creation? Seas churning, Rushing rivers, Crawling creatures, Flying and  playing Birds Burning balls of  fire. A  man with an  imaginative  mind  that can  comprehend everything.  The  special senses lead  man to the boundless realm of bliss,  sometimes  turning into violent expressions of hatred and rivalry,  into a  steady  flow of  ideas Resting in God's love, one is  freed from all compation, fear, anger, tresspass,  sadness  through listening meditation practice,  when the  mind wanders  steadily  in the  higher realm, all  problems cease.
