A path so expansive

 The Speaking Tree  India | ET

BY ACHARYA MAHAPRAJNA

The route to peace is paved with hope, not despair. Similarly, the route to enlightenment and merging with the Paramatma is full of unconditional love and hope. To aspire to be one with the Paramatma is to be free of ego and power struggle. To become a Paramatma is no mean task, and in aspiring for it, there is no objection.

The ambition of attaining a small post is fraught with danger. If you wish to become prime minister, you will face innumerable obstacles, jealousies and other problems. All these posts come with conflict and opposition. Those in small posts are always wary of others grabbing their posts. But the post of the Paramatma is very large, expansive. Anybody who wants this post can aspire for it without creating any objection, jealousy or conflict.

The path to become the Paramatma is so large that all the small paths get contained in it. It is the path of optimism. The path of spirituality, of meditation, can never be seen as the path of despair. Only those come who are satiated with the materialistic path. They then find peace. A peaceful life and mind do not come from wealth or prosperity.

There is no alternative to this peace. Its only way is through mental concentration, steadying the mind and to change the functioning of the glandular system. This way, the thoughts and waves that come to mind are assuaged. Thoughts and waves create opposing actions, causing restlessness. To negate this and achieve balance is the way to peace.

Quote from the True Charm and Power of Vednata

Be a true devotee, full of trust, full of hope, full of love and of godly powers.

Divine Mother will always protect you and give you strength for Her work. You have only to sand ready to do Her will. She knows Her own and when she attracts no power can resist. Blessed are they who are attracted by Her blessed feet never need worry under any circumstances. Even when dangers come from all sides like thick clouds , if we do not forget Her and patiently bear everything, then we find it true that She can make almost the most impossible things possible for the protection of Her devoted children. There is no other power that can make us suffer. She is the only power in the universe.

O Thou Supreme One! Increase our faith and trust in Thee. Teach us complete surrender to Thy will. Choose us as Thine own. Grant unto us Thy blessing and protection and peace.

But, if He exists?

I drive joy There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 7 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive 4m.
