From my way to path of Self Realization............... "An effort of communication beyond the reach of words."
A compilation of humble sharing being intuited as spiritual experiences while traversing upon the divine path from way to Self Realization during interaction of the self with "Self" in guidance of an enlightened sage is getting reflected in "From my way to path of self realization".The contents are only for self contentment with firm confirmation to what says Lord Buddha: "Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who has said it not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reasons and your own common sense."

O’revered Gurudev as
I found a path within you which initiates, passes and ends within the “Path of Self Realization”
to get the total journey
over
for
ever.
A tribute of tears to your sacred teachings which would never allow me to be debtless in any passage of time either
present,
or
past
or
future.
This is an excert from Tulsidas Goswami’s magnum opus,epic of poems “Ramcharitmanas”….(The lake of acts of RAMA)…..!!!
When Rama,Lakshman and Sita reach sage Valmiki Ashram,Rama asks,
“Where should he stay?
Sage Valmiki replies,
“Being omnipresent,you are every where.”
Then sage Valmiki describes to Rama,where he should reside.The obvious answer is……“In devotees heart”.
Lord Rama,Your image is beyond the scope of words and the purview of intellect.Beyond understanding and description and without limits.
“Not this nor that”….(that is how)…always holy scriptures describe your image.
Listen Rama,now I will describe your home where you reside with Sita and Lakshman……!!!
Those whose ears are filled with your tales like an ocean is filled with rivers though filled unceasingly,it never overflows.Their hearts you should call abode…..!!!
And those whose eyes are thirsty for your sight like a “Chatak” bird which waits for the rain drops from the sky(with an open beak),in their hearts,you should make your happy homeandstay with your brother(lakshman) and Sita,o leader of Raghu (clan)…!!!
And those who from the lake of your pure glory,like a discerning tongue of a swan select only the pearls of your virtues,stay in their hearts Rama….!!!
And those whose nostrils are always filled with the sweet smell of offering to you,those who eat food only after offering to you first and wear cloths and ornaments from the offerings……,those whose hands are always occupied in serving you and their hearts find no other refuge but in you…….,and those whose feet take them to the holy places your pilgrimage,Rama..,reside in their minds….!!!
Those who asks for only one boon so their mind is occupied in your quest in the sanctum of their mind,live both you and Sita,O’ son of Raghu……..!!!
Those who have over come lust,anger,arrogance,pride and craving greed,envy,wrath and hatredand those in whose hearts there is neither treachery,hypocrisy nor deceit in their hearts you should reside,King of Raghu…..!!!
Those who speak truth,graciously and with prudence and awake or asleep are in your mercy….,and for whom there is no other destination but you Rama,reside in their minds……!!!
And for whom you are the protector,companion,father,mother,teacher and respected elder,in the temple of their mind…..you two brothers should reside with Sita….!!!
And those who ascribe all their virtues to you and the short comings to themselves Thus firmly established in your faith and for whom their devotion in you is their happiness in their heart you should stay with Vaidehi (princess of Videh Kingdom = Sita)……!!!
One’s caste,race,wealth and false pride in the religion,near and dear relatives and pleasing house,those who renounce the above but keep you in their hearts,In their hearts you should stay……,O king of Raghu……!!!
And those who desire for nothing else but natural effortless love for you!Remain in their minds for ever,Because in their heart,where your true home is…!!!
~Sant Tulsidas~
A very clear vision of great sage describing Lord’s home where HE resides which is glowing as lamp post
to get eternal light while traversing upon the “Path of Self Realization.”
My sincere prayer to Lord Rama to reside and remain in the mind of each soul at this occasion of great Indian festival of Vijaya Dashmi, a festival of victory of righteous impulses over unrighteous impulses
being celebrated here on this day of October, Twenty Fourth ,2012.
Sai Ki Nagri Param Ati Sundar, tadbhāsayate sūryo
Jahan Koi Jav Na Avey na śaśāṅko na pāvakaḥ
Chand Suraj Jahan, Pavan Na Pani, yadgatvā na nivartaṁte
Ko Sundesh Pahunchave taddhāma paramaṁ mama
Dard Yeh Sai Ko Sunave
Agey Chalo Panth Nahin Sujhe, reaching which
Peeche Dosh Lagawe there is no return,
Kehi Bidhi Sasure Jau Mori Sajani,
Virha Jor Jarawe Vishai Ras Nach Nachawe
Bin Satguru Apno Nahin Koi,
Jo Yeh Rah Batawe neither the sun
Kahat Kabira Suno Bhai Sadho,
Supne Na Pitam Awey nor by fire
Tapan Yeh Jiya Ki Bujhawey
Naiharva Hum Ka Na Bhave ….!!!!
I Don’t Find any Interest in My Parent’s House My Beloved’s Town is Most Beautiful However, Nobody Goes or Comes from There There is no Moon, Sun, Wind or Water There Then Who Will Take My Message There? Then Who Will Tell My Pain to My Beloved?
There is No Visible Path to Move Forward And You Blame the Past for It How Should the Bride go to the House of the Beloved? Powerful Pangs of Separation are Burning from Inside Dual Reality is Fashioning a Dance to Its Tune
There is None Other Than the Guru Who is Mine Who Can Tell the Way Says Kabir Listen oh Aspirant Your Beloved Will Come in a Dream-like State That Alone Will Quench the Thirst of your Heart
-Kabir-
The same expression of the most revered sage Kabir resonates with “Bhagavad Gita”
न तद्भासयते सूर्यो न शशाङ्को न पावकः।
यद्गत्वा न निवर्तंते तद्धाम परमं मम॥१५-६॥
*
na tadbhāsayate sūryo na śaśāṅko na pāvakaḥ|
yadgatvā na nivartaṁte taddhāma paramaṁ mama||15-6||
“That after reaching which there is no return, and which is illumined by neither the sun nor the moon, nor by fire, is my supreme abode.’’
A true pain of seeker emerging out as vision from the “Path of Self Realization.”
Neither the huge crowd..,
any amount of gatherings,
nor..,
any appreciation or loud applauds…
It is the self…
who knows the Self
and
really
if one is truly awakened,
Soul certifies…..!!!
[Revered Adgadanandji Gurudev]
Certainly it is Soul which certifies the achievements of the “Path of Self Realization”
Sings Sri Krishn in Bhagavad Gita:
*
prayatnādyatamānastu yogī sanśuddhakilbisah
anekajanmasansiddhastato yāti parām gatim
*
“The yogi,
who has purified his heart and mind
through several births
by intense meditation
and thus rid himself of all sins,
attains to the ultimate state of realizing God.”
*Only an endeavour made over a number of lives effects this ultimate accomplishment.
*The yogi who practices diligent meditation is well rid of all kinds of impiety and then attains to the final beatitude. This is the way of attainment.
*Setting out on the path of yog with but a feeble effort and initiated into it when the mind is yet restless, he is admitted to the family of an accomplished teacher and, with the undertaking of meditation in life after life, he at last arrives at the point called salvation-the state in which the Soul is merged into God.
*The seed of this yog is never annihilated. If we just take a couple of steps, the merits earned from them are never destroyed.
*A man of true faith can embark upon the ordained action in every circumstance of worldly life.
Whether you are a woman or a man,
of whatever race or culture, if you are simply a human being,
the Gita is for you.
The Bhagavad Gita is for all mankind-for the man devoted to his family and the sanyasi, the educated and the unlettered, and for everyone. It is not only for that unique creature called a hermit (sadhu).
*This indeed is….
Lord Krishn’s pronouncement!!!
[Revered Adgadanandji Gurudev]
So very rightly says,when it is said by some one:
Ah, friends ………………. any takers ? No……. Nirvana does not come that cheap No …… Nirvana will never come that cheap
And this stage may be achieved only when one traverses upon the “Path of Self Realization.”
Any thing can never be meaning full to each one.The entire mankind is one in a single court yard and teachings of masters are always universal and eternal.
Yes.Each one who wants liberation, has to find the path of his own.Just because it is individual travelling.Only that’s why?But while stepping,one always finds some foot prints already left there indicating the path got traversed in past.Provided if one really traverses upon.
Now again it is individual decision….to get matched or mismatched with the same path in the same mode or a bit different mode.
*Who is God?Every-thing, some-thing or no-thing,who knows?
Walk the path and get the secret revealed.
Yes,walk the path upon the “Path of Self Realization”
