The
Birthday of Rama
The
Speaking Tree | Spirituality | ET
Sri
Sathya Sai Baba
Once, the
four young lads were playing a game. Shortly thereafter, Bharata came to mother
Kausalya, weeping. She asked him, “Bharata, why are you feeling sad? Have you
lost the game?”
When
Bharata returned from Kekaya kingdom, he came to know from Sage Vasishtha that
Rama had gone into exile and would not return for 14 long years. He was
disconsolate.
He said,
“I do not want this kingdom which has caused the exile of my brother Rama.
Being the eldest son, only Rama has the right to rule over the kingdom. Hence,
at this very moment I shall go to the forest, fall at the feet of Rama and
plead with Him to come and reign over Ayodhya.”
In order
to uphold His father’s word, Rama was ready to go into exile. Rama’s birthday
celebrations remind us of the ideals He stood for. Sage Vasishtha declared that
Rama is the embodiment of Dharma. He described the Divine form of Rama as
enchanting. “Rama, your beauty is not limited to Your physical form. You are
infinite love and compassion. You are the very personification of Sat-chit-ananda.”

Qoute
from the True Charm and Power of Vednata
‘The
Brahman that is immediate and direct, the Atman that is the innermost Self of
all.
That thou
art “ (Tattam asi) proclaims the chandogya Upanishad (VI. Vii 7) aligning
mortal man with the immortal divine. Again and again, the Upanishads reiterate
this great truth. If man as scientist has such a profound dimension that he can
comprehend the vast universe in a formula given by his thought , what must be
the dimension of man as the Atman, as pure consciousness as the unchangeable
infinite Self? The reality that remains undivided in the divided things and
processes of the world as the Gita puts it (xiii 16) The mystery of the
universe was finally resolved through the solution of the mystery disclosed
within man himself . the sages of the Upanishads discovered the centre of the
universe in the centre of man. Through that discovery, man was reviled in his
infinite dimension; and the universe was also revealed in all its spiritual
glory. Realization of this truth is the only way to life fulfilment say the
Upanishads. Says the Svetasvatara Upanisad (II 15
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.
