BIKSHU GEETHAM -4

We can humbly accept that, BHAGAWATHAM works well now also. This greedy man isonly a pictorial symbolic representation. Just imagine - a state devoid ofemotions. No one is here to share our ideas. No one is listening to us. No oneis caring to comfort us. The family that is the shelter, behind us, itselfbecomes barren,devoid of human emotions. There you can see children, always saying " I am alone. I am all alone. I am left with nobody. No one understands my feeling. No one is here to listen to my sorrows. What I can do with money? Neither father nor mother is accompanyingme. I am not receiving the love from my mother. I am not receiving the kindadvice from my father. Only servant maids are feeding me. They are only people,who work for money. How can they replace my parents? They are paid to do service. They will work, in proportion to their wages. How can I expect true love from them?

I am left alone. Parents go in the morning for their business and they return late in the night. Even when they come at night, they simply greet me and once again travel somewhere to improve their business circle. They are busy. They don't have the mind to spare some time with me. Even if theyspent so, there also their mind shows only business ethics and other worldlythings devoid of pure love. They are DIPLOMATIC. But are they LOVABLE? I am nota servant maid or a military soldier, who abides by the orders of a senior man.My life is not a military life, filled with full of rules and regulations. I ama young child. I am a growing adult. I look for only people, who can show on me,true love. I want atleat some body, who want to speak to me for myself. Everyone come and goes. They speak. They even praise at me. But, they are flatulent.Their motive behind these words are monetary. They are not pacifying my inneremotions and sorrows.

They look at me as a successor of a mighty wealthy man.Shall I find a right person, who can show me a way to come out of thisloneliness? Shall I find, the right one? Oh! No! I am perplexed, tensed, andthis loneliness kills me. I am searching for a right soul, who can calm me downand pacify me."This loneliness bites each and every one, in each and every walk of life. We areleft alone. The only companion, who can always be a friend, philosopher andguide and who can listen to our sorrows is BHAGAVAN RADHEKRISHNA . BhagavanKrishna is inseperable from us. He is the soul. We are the body.The soul isdearer to the body. So, in the same way, Krishna Bhagavan is the soul, residingin each and every body. This body is the divine abode of Krishna Bhagavan.Krishna Bhagavan has the SOWLABYAM- SIMPLICITY.

He can be treated according toour feelings. He can be considered as a father, mother, friend, master, lover,beloved, brother, sister, relative, philosopher and guide, pacifying force, sinremover, trouble shooter and the soul that is inseperable from us. Krishna Bhagavan looks for pure love only. He doesn't care about anybody's background. Under his eyes every one are equal. When we are deprived and felttortured by loneliness, we can always seek the help from him. This companion is a best companion. He is the true friend, who keeps the secret always a secret.He is the lovable one, who showers unconditional love, to the calling fromanybody. If some one calls Him, Krishna Bhagavan at once listens and solves the problem. Krishna Bhagavan immediately gives a pacifying reply, which we canlisten and accept.

BUT, HOW MANY OF US ARE LISTENING TO THE WORDS OF KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, WHOCONSTANTLY ACCOMPANIES US AT EACH AND EVERY STAGE? TO LISTEN TO THE WORDS OF KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, WHO CAN KILL THIS EVERLASTING RIVALOF LONELINESS, WE NEED A SATHGURU, WHO CAN GUIDE US TO THAT MOTIVE.

The Sathguru's grace is umatchable. They are the representative of KrishnaBhagavan, in human form acting as a true messenger of Krishna Bhagavan. Theycarry with them, the divine message of Krishna Bhagavan. By listening to thedivine message of Krishna Bhagavan, we can free our mind. The Sathguru givesManthropadesam. OUR SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA GIVES 'RADHEKRISHNA' NAMAM. TheRadhekrishna Namam, as given by our Sathguru is the protection and and this kills the loneliness. The Gopis never felt the loneliness. To them, Krishna Bhagavan was always a companion. They could listen to the inner voice of Krishna Bhagavan, which kept them going on with their routines. ThePremai - unconditional love, is showered on to us by the divine grace of RADHAMATHA. The supreme divine filled joy is enjoyed by living with KrishnaBhagavan.

The Krishna Namam gives ANANDAM - true divine joy and happiness,devoid of sorrows. The 'Radhekishna'Namam gives the blessings from Radha Matha- divine mother and Krishna Pitha (divine father). Radhekrishna is theeverloving parent to each and every one. This parent will be always free. Even though, they are the mighty emperors whorule and protect all the worlds, they have the patience to listen to ouremotions. We are the successor of this mighty emperor, namely Krishna Bhagavan.Why should we worry? We are proud and alwys be proud to call ourselves as thesuccessor of RadheKrishna. They are inseperable from us. Wherever we go, Radhekrishna will always accompanyus. When we face any problem, we can always seek the help from BhagavanRadhekrishna.

The Radhekrishna Namam, as given by our Sathguru, is a boon tous. It is like an opening gateway to mukthi - liberation , liberation from allbindings which keep us restless. The Sathguru is the guiding force, who can guide us to our true individuality. Our divine parents, Radhekrishna are the mighty emperors of all the worlds. Whyshould we look for these worldly people with cruel and crooked mentality? TheSathguru is here to guide us. The chanting of Radhekrishna Namam is a pacifier,which can remove loneliness and keep our self in close connection with BhagavanRadhekrishna.

Coming back to the story...

This greedy man was always working and toiling very much. The children started developing a sense of hatred and dejection from their side. The children alsostarted doing unwanted things. They also cheated this greedy man. Thay gave layexcuses, made a false paly to cheat him. His wife also started cheating him.This greedy man had given unbearable sorrows and sufferings to his familymembers. Even with all the luxurious things, nothing seemed worthwhile. Nothinggave them true joy. Nothing pacified their sorrows. A man, who does not go by the saying of a Sathguru, in spending his time and money, at least sparingly indivine things, will always be surrounded by the fear of people cheating, byundue means.

Bhagavan Radhekrishna is the lovable companion. By showering ourlove on him, through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam , we can be safe fromall upcoming endangers. We can be freed from all kinds of fear. This fearalways bites each and every one. There are 5 kind of Yagna's (Sacrifices), that need to be performed by a family man. (GRUHASTHAN - one who has a GRUHAM - HOUSEWITH FAMILY MEMBERS).

TO KNOW ABOUT THE 5 YAGNA'S AND THEIR SIGNIFICANCE IN KEEPING OURSELF OUT OFFEAR, CHANT RADHEKRISHNA CONTINOUSLY AND SEEK THE BLESSINGS OF POOJYA SHREESHREE AMMA, TILL WE COME OUT THOSE SECRETS IN THE NEXT ISSUE.

RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA...

JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI !

JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA !

BHIKSHU GEETHAM -3

BHIKSHU GEETHAM -UDHAVA MUKTHI

We can also see the faces of young kids going tangled and wrinkled at alldirections, when they face dejection and rejection from others. But for allthese problems, the mind is the only root cause. This mind only gives us lotsand lots of problems. We shower our love on each and every one. We want tosacrifice our own feelings, emotions and we want to strive hard for making people around us happy . We toil around day and night. We look for all thethings to end in a happy way. We want to keep our self happy. We want theatmosphere to be conducive and happy always. All the human actions andendeavors are focused towards the centric point of ‘HAPPINESS’.
We want to enjoy the happiness from each and every thing, in a best possible way. We work a lot, to manipulate the actions of nature and to combat it in a fruitful way,to make the life artificially, a happier one. We want to create apseudo-natural system (false system as that of nature), which is of higher happiness, as imagined by our self. The present day world has got more luxury.The inventions in a way make the living smooth, comfortable and flexible to runour normal life too. The man-hours are much saved. The actions which were done by travelling very long distances, seemingly tougher tasks are now madeeasier. The world has become a global village. The time, space, money, etc., are made easy. We are provided with much free time. In the ancient times man had to toil a lot. He had to spend many man-hours together with the help ofhundreds and hundreds of people each contributing their precious time. But now man has invented machines which minimizes the time to a great extent. The time is precious. The invention of machines has changed our life style. We can do things easily with least efforts. This can save our time and energy.
Bhagavan is allowing these things to happen freely. But what are we doing with those saved time and energy? We are spending much of our time in T.V. programs and entertainments only. Otherwise, people who are anxious and eager to improve their caliber keep on going with their business round the clock, forsaking everything. They leave every thing. They become man-machines devoid of human emotions. They keep themselves vital and active, just like lubricating parts of a machine. They never have time to speak with children, wife, parents, friends,relatives, leave alone visiting holy places of Sathguru, where one can get thedivine happiness through the Sathguru’s preachings. They go to only ManagementGurus, who teach management skills to improve charisma and to mint money.Whether they are acquiring money or not, that is a different issue. But,definitely for the want of money, every one is losing inner harmony and peace.They become restless and their life is filled with tension,worries and anxiety.
All human endeavors aim in making the world a better place to live in. Theyhave shrunk the world. Bridged the rivers. Connected each and every nook andcorner of the world through Web. They have started to conquer the space. Theyhave started searching for life in outer planets. Produced medicines, which cankeep one self without food for months together, as taken by astronauts who go inspaceships.They are all trying to create a Pseudo- Natural system of ever lastingbeneficiary to one and all. But this is a never-ending story. Even after allthe inventions, even after shrinking time, space, world, man could not get truehappiness. He wants to make the people around him happy. But the inventions havehelped him to shrink the parameters only. They never gave him the true happiness. This does not mean that Science contradicts Divinity or money is abad thing, which should be forsaken. It is not the amount of money that counts,but our attachment with that money, always makes a matter.
You can be an emperorof the world. But by reaching a Sathguru, who can show you the true KrishnaBhakthi, you can still keep your self, unaffected by the wealth, titles, postetc. A Sathguru will show us the true path of Krishna Bhakthi. They will leadus from darkness to light. Bhagavan as enjoyed by us gives the worldlypleasure. The luxury, pleasure, happiness, wealth, as enjoyed by us depends onthe actions performed by us. The Sathguru removes the illusion or Maya of ‘Iness and my ness. We are just tools in the hands of Bhagavan. It is Bhagavanwho only does good things to the mankind, by keeping our body as a tool. Thepleasures enjoyed by being an Emperor of the entire world, is also temporary.Not by any wealth or treasure, we can get the true divine happiness of KrishnaBhakthi. The divine Krishna Bhakthi is incomparable. After all, HE is thecreator of the entire universe.
The wealth of Bhagavan is enormous. His wealthis incomparable. Just imagine the countless number of stars, which are seen onthe sky. Man has now only able to sent Spaceships to Mars. But, in space, wecan see countless number of galaxies, each having lakhs of planets and some ofwhich are highly radiant and powerful than the sun. The Bhagavatham also givesa vivid explanation of our galaxies and the divine Vibhuthi’s (nature ofBhagavan) in detail. Man’s expeditions and inventions are only trying to atleast know, a little bit of fraction of divine Leela’s of Bhagavath Vibhuthi’s.Bhagavan is mercy enough to show, a minute fraction of his divine Leela’s(divine glorious enormous power displayed in visible and invisible form)through the Scientific inventions.But, at times man imagines him self to be a Superior who can conquer each andeverything in an artificial way. Man can become god like. But not by artificial means. He can become like that of Bhagavan, through the Krishna Bhakthi alone.
The money earned, innovations, inventions and endeavors done to reveal thehidden secrets of Bhagavan are only in small quantum, in comparison to the mighty unsolved hidden mysteries of Bhagavan’s Vibhuthi, namely nature. The life span of human being is precious but short lived. During this period, we are created by Bhagavan to enjoy the divine happiness. This body is uniquely created by Bhagavan to enjoy the life happily . We are not born to live in sorrow, tension, anxiety, frustration, restlessness etc. We are born, only to enjoy the divine happiness each and every minute. Tension, anxiety,frustration, restlessness are all due to improper understanding of life. Wetake life in a way as we wish to be, but forget the hidden divine secret andhappiness in each and every obstacle that affect our life. But to know about the divine secrets of life, we need a Sathguru, who can guide us to thatmotive. We take lessons from the school teachers. We learn scientific skills from scientists and management skills through management masters. There we never even imagined raising our voice against them. We are simply abiding totheir sayings. By believing in their words, and accepting them all to be true,we are marching in official life.
But, when we take our life, for our innerhappiness and peace why we are not accepting a Sathguru who can guide us tothat motive? For making livelihood, we are accepting the norms and customs ofthe world. For enjoying true divine happiness and to feel the true divine joy,we can be free to accept a Sathguru, who can teach us the true path of KrishnaBhakthi. Our life is filled with divine happiness. Each and every minute is ablissful one. We are not born to suffer, toil, shed tears and sweat, get ourmind perplexed, tensed ultimately leading to nervousness and restlessness. We are born to enjoy the life properly. Each and every stage in life, our joyshould multiply with the divine grace of Bhagavan Radhekrishna, through thechanting of Radhekrishna Namam. The Nama Japam that is chanted continuously will lead us to Mukthi - liberation. Liberation from all bindings, which keeps us restless.
Here, this greedy man always found himself restless. He kept his mind, occupied with hundreds and hundreds of things. This binding becomes a permanent one and we struggle a lot to come out of it. This man was having a cruel character. He never gave, any money to any body. For people who are cruel, who don’t give and spend money in the righteous path, through the preachings of a Sathguru; the life becomes a permanent headache. This man imposed his principles of misery to the people around him. He never allowed hissons, daughters, wife, relatives to come and enjoy, happily in an occasion or two. He kept himself confined. He became like a mighty monster always minting money and minting more money and keeping them as a treasure. He never allowed any body to take control over it. Seeing his behavior, every one started to hate him. On his face, people praised him. They praised him for the money they were going to get from him as wages. But, on his back, every one despised him.Like a latent fire (hidden fire) in each and every one’s mind, there lied a constant hatred and jealously towards this greedy man.
The servants wanted tocheat him. They did so, as and when time and opportunity came. The servantsstarted cheating him. They exaggerated their work, postponed their work, gavelay excuses etc., and asked for more money from him to complete the task. Forthe want of money, to run the show, he was forced to pay higher wages. Thisgreedy man cheated others. He never spent at least a penny, for divine holythings through a Sathguru. Not even a small amount of his wealth wassurrendered at the feet of a Sathguru, who can utilize it for the welfare ofmankind, through the spreading of Bhakthi. He was neither beneficial to him,nor to the society. His wealth not even served his family. The children werelooking for the fatherly love. He imagined that he was toiling round the clock,to make a huge amount of money, which would be a savior of life for his cominggenerations. But, the present life is gone. Even when he spoke with his wife ,it always ended in business transactions.
DOESN’T THIS RESEMBLE THE PRESENT DAY MACHINE WORLD?
RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...
