Who is the best devotee of God?

Pure knowledge and pure love
are
one and the same thing.
Both lead the aspirants to the same goal.
The path of love is much easier.

Who is the best devotee of God?
It is he who sees,
after
the realization of Brahman
that
God alone has become all living beings,
the universe,
and the twenty-four cosmic principles.

One must discriminate at first, saying ‘Not this, not this’,
and
reach the roof.

After that one realizes that the steps are made
of
the same materials as the roof, namely,
brick, lime,
and
brick-dust.

The devotee realizes that it is Brahman alone
that
has become all these —
the living beings, the universe,
and
so on.

~Ramakrishna Paramhans~

Pure knowledge and pure love

which is a key guidance
by
an enlightened master
for seeker
while traversing upon

A truly enlightened Guru……!!!

Brahmaanandham Parama Sukhadam
Kevalam Jnaana Murthim
Dhvandhvaa Theetham Gagana Sadhrisham
Tathvam AsyaadLakshyam

Ekam Nithyam Vimalam Achalam
Sarvadhee Saakshi Bhutham
Bhavaatheetham Thriguna Rahitham
Sadhgurum Tham Namaami.

A truly enlightened Guru
experiences
the supreme Bliss of Brahmaananda (transcedental divine bliss),
enjoys and confers
changeless supreme happiness.

He is beyond space and time (there is nothing higher than him).
He is the embodiment of wisdom
which is the basis for all types of knowledge.

He transcends the pair of opposites (such as happiness and sorrow, gain and loss).

He is more Omnipresent than space itself.

He is the very embodiment of the Divine principle,
which is the inner meaning of the four great pronouncements
Prajnaanam Brahma,
Aham Brahmasmi,
Thath Thvam Asi
and
Ayam Aathma Brahma.

He is One without a second (ekam).

He never changes under any circumstances (nithyam).

He is without any type of impurity (vimalam).

He is steady and motionless(achalam).

He is the witness of everything.

He transcends mental comprehension and verbal explanation.

He is beyond the three gunas (sathva, rajas and thamas).

I offer my humble salutations to such a Guru who possesses all these qualities.

How to bring own love and own meditation into the land where there is no sun and moon, nor day and night…?

IT is the mercy of my true Guru
that
has made me to know the unknown;

I have learned from Him how to walk without feet,
to
see without eyes,
to
hear without ears,
to
drink without mouth,
to
fly without wings;

I have brought my love and my meditation into the land
where
there is no sun and moon, nor day and night.

-Revered Sant Kabir-

Verily one has no fear, who has a true Guru to lead to the shelter of safety..!

Sâdho, so satgur mohi bhâwai….!

O BROTHER, my heart yearns for that true Guru, who fills the cup of true love,
and
drinks of it himself,
and
offers it then to me.

He removes the veil from the eyes,
and
gives the true Vision of Brahma:
He reveals the worlds in Him,
and
makes me to hear the Unstruck Music:

He shows joy and sorrow to be one:
He fills all utterance with love.

Kabîr says:

“Verily he has no fear, who has such a Guru
to
lead him
to
the shelter of safety!”

Bow down in your lotus feet O Revered Gurudev…!!!
