குழந்தையின் குரல்
——————–
மழலையின் குரல் ஒரு அன்னைக்கு
அழைப்பு மணி என்றால் அந்த
அன்னையின் பதில் குரல் தந்திடும்
ஒரு புத்துணர்ச்சி அந்த குழந்தைக்கு !
இது ஒரு பாசப்பிணைப்பு !
குரல் ஒலி வழியில்  குழந்தையும்
தாயும் இணையும் இந்த பாச  சங்கமம்
ஐந்தறிவு ஜீவனுக்கும் சொந்தமே !
இறைவன் படைப்பில் இது ஒரு
அதிசயம் …ஆச்சர்யம் !
தொடு திரை கணினி அலை பேசி
நம் கையில் குழந்தை போல இன்று !
“தாய்” நம் குரலை இனம் கண்டு
தன் கதவு திறந்து இந்த உலகையே
நம் கண் முன் கொண்டு வந்து சேர்க்குதே
இந்த அலைபேசி “குழந்தை” !
இந்த  கணினி அலைபேசி நமக்கு
குழந்தையா ….இல்லை  நாம்
அதற்கு குழந்தையா !  இது இன்று
புரியாத  புதிர் !
தன் குழந்தையின் குரல் மறந்தாலும்
தங்கள்  அலை பேசியின் அழைப்பு
மணியின் ஒலியை சற்றும் மறக்காத
தாய் தந்தை பலர் நம்மிடையே  உண்டு இன்று !
இது விந்தையிலும் விந்தை !

Message for the Day…”you may have learnt the art of intensive cultivation and soil preparation. Now you have to carefully sow the seeds in well-prepared fields of cleansed hearts. Until the new harvest, when the fresh produce comes in, don’t you have to consume the grain already stored in previous harvests? The troubles and anxieties you experience now are the crop collected in your previous harvests, so do not grieve and lose heart!”

Many of you grieve: “It is said that getting the audience of a holy person is destruction of sin (darshanam papa nashanam). Well, I have had darshan not once but many times, and yet, my evil fate has not left me and I am suffering even more than before!” True, you may have come and had darshan, and have sowed fresh seeds secured from the holy places — seeds of love, faith, devotion, good company, godly thoughts, remembering God’s name, etc. And you may have learnt the art of intensive cultivation and soil preparation. Now you have to carefully sow the seeds in well-prepared fields of cleansed hearts. Until the new harvest, when the fresh produce comes in, don’t you have to consume the grain already stored in previous harvests? The troubles and anxieties you experience now are the crop collected in your previous harvests, so do not grieve and lose heart!

Message for the Day…”God is omnipresent; He is everywhere and within you. You are Divine! You must develop the spirit of sacrifice (tyaga)….”

NatarajanLeave a comment

Life is not gifted to you to enjoy food and become fat yourself. The body is the basic instrument for the practice of righteousness (Dharma). Give food to the starving. Dedicate your entire time to service and for the proper discharge of your duties. God is omnipresent; He is everywhere and within you. You are Divine! You must develop the spirit of sacrifice (tyaga). You must serve others through your body and cherish good and noble thoughts in your mind. You must use your wealth for supporting educational and service institutions to help the people. This is the way to lead a purposeful and sublime life. God alone can transform your spiritual efforts into a transcendental experience. Ensure your spiritual practices (Sadhana) are not for any selfish reason. It must promote the good of others. Give up selfishness, cultivate selfless love for others, and thus sanctify your lives. Then you will experience Sakshatkara, the vision of the Divine, from within you

Message for the Day…”Offer Him the fragrant leaf of devotion, the flowers of your emotions and impulses, freed from the pests of lust, anger, etc. Give Him fruits grown in the orchard of your mind, sour or sweet, juicy or dry, bitter or sugary.”

  • You attach importance to quantity, but the Lord considers only quality. He does not calculate how many measures of ‘sweet rice’ you offered but how many sweet words you uttered and how much sweetness you added in your thoughts. Offer Him the fragrant leaf of devotion, the flowers of your emotions and impulses, freed from the pests of lust, anger, etc. Give Him fruits grown in the orchard of your mind, sour or sweet, juicy or dry, bitter or sugary. Once you decide that the orchard in your mind is His, all fruits will naturally be sweet! The very act of your seeking refuge and protection (sharanagati) will render them acceptable to the Lord, so they cannot be bitter. And for water, what can be purer and more precious than your tears shed not in grief, but in rapture at the chance to serve the Lord and to walk along the path that leads to Him!

Message for the Day…” You must control the tongue with double care, since it can harm you in two ways. Sage Patanjali, the author of Yoga Sutras has declared that when tongue is conquered, victory is yours!”

NatarajanLeave a comment

All the five elements have been created by the will of the Supreme. They must be used with reverential care and vigilant discrimination. Reckless use of any of them will only rebound on you with tremendous harm. Nature outside must be handled with discretion, caution and awe. It is the same with our inner ‘nature’ and internal instruments too! Of these, two are capable of vast harm – the tongue and one’s lust. Since lust is aroused and inflamed by the food consumed and the drink taken in, the tongue needs greater attention. While your eye, ear and nose have single uses, the tongue makes itself available for two purposes: to judge taste and to utter word – symbols of communication. You must control the tongue with double care, since it can harm you in two ways. Sage Patanjali, the author of Yoga Sutras has declared that when tongue is conquered, victory is yours!

Message for the Day…”“Remain equal-minded in happiness and sorrow, gain and loss, victory and defeat”…

NatarajanLeave a comment

Good and bad, wealth and poverty, praise and blame go together in this world. You cannot derive happiness out of happiness (na sukhat labhate sukham). Happiness comes only out of sorrow. A wealthy man today may become a pauper tomorrow. Similarly, a pauper may become a rich man some day or other. Today you are being praised, but tomorrow you may be criticised. To consider praise and blame, happiness and sorrow, prosperity and adversity with equal-mindedness is the hallmark of a true human being. The Gita declares, “Remain equal-minded in happiness and sorrow, gain and loss, victory and defeat (sukha dukhe same kritva labhalabhau jayajayau). You can truly enjoy your life as a human being only when you consider both sorrow and happiness, profit and loss with equanimity. There is no value for happiness without sorrow. Therefore, welcome sorrow if you want to experience real happiness.

Message for the Day…”Your homes must be immersed in the highest peace (shanti) — undisturbed by any streak of hatred, malice, pride, or envy. No worship or penance can equal the efficacy of obedience to the command given for your liberation”.

Unbelief is the insidious disease that is now rampant amongst people. It sets fire to the tiny shoots of faith and reduces life to cinders and ashes. You have no criterion to judge, yet you pretend to judge. Doubt, anger, poison, illness — all these must be destroyed before they grow. Repeat Rama’s name, whether you have faith or not. That will itself induce faith and create the evidence on which faith can be built. In addition, if you aspire to be a devotee, you must eschew attachment and aversion. You should not be proud if you sing well or decorate your worship room tastefully. There must be a steady improvement in your habits and attitudes; otherwise, spiritual discipline is a vain pastime. Your homes must be immersed in the highest peace (shanti) — undisturbed by any streak of hatred, malice, pride, or envy. No worship or penance can equal the efficacy of obedience to the command given for your liberation.
