Take off with Natarajan

What is it that people should acquire today? It is the broadening of the heart so that it may be filled with all-embracing love. Only then the sense of spiritual oneness of all mankind can be experienced. Out of that sense of unity will be born the love of God. This love will generate pure bliss in the heart that is boundless, indescribable and everlasting. For all forms of bliss, love is the source. A heart without love is like a barren land. Foster love in your hearts and redeem your lives. Whatever your scholarship or wealth, they are valueless without love. Without devotion all other accomplishments are of no avail for realising God. Men aspire for liberation. True liberation means freedom from desires. Today people cannot go to forests for penance or engage themselves in meditation and other spiritual exercises. The easiest spiritual path for all people is to dedicate all their actions to God.

Jesus taught simple practical lessons in spiritual advancement for the good of mankind; He manifested divine powers to instill faith in the validity of His teachings; He marked out the path that confers sweet nectar of bliss (Ananda) on humanity. He exhorted people by precept to cultivate the virtues of charity, compassion, forbearance, love and faith. We must pay attention to the sacrifice that Jesus made while free, out of His own volition. He sacrificed His happiness, prosperity, position, comfort, and safety, and braved the enmity of the powerful. He refused to yield or compromise. He renounced the ego, which is the toughest thing to get rid of. Honour Him for these. He willingly gave up the desires with which the body torments man; this is a great sacrifice. The celebration of His birthday has to be marked by your sacrificing at least a desire or two, and conquering at least the more disastrous urges of the ego.

The greatest obstacle on the path of surrender is egoism and ‘mine-ness’ or possessiveness. This is buried in your personality since ages, sending its tentacles deeper and deeper with every succeeding life. It can be removed only by the twin detergents of discrimination and renunciation. Devotion is the water to wash away this age old dirt, and the repetition of God’s name, meditation, and communion (yoga) are the soap that will make the cleansing more effective and quicker. The slow and steady aspirants will surely win this race; walking is the safest method of travel, though it may be condemned as slow! Quicker means of travel guarantees disaster; quicker the means, greater the risk of disaster. You should eat only as much as is needed to satiate your hunger, more will cause disorder. Similarly, proceed step by step in spiritual effort with faith; do not slide back two paces with one pace forward.

Embodiments of Divine Love! If you desire to secure genuine peace in the world, you should not have any antipathy towards religion. You must hold morality (neeti) as superior to your community (jati). You must cherish good feelings as more important than religious beliefs. Mutual regard (Mamata), equal-mindedness (samata) and forbearance (kshamata) are essential foundational qualities for every human being. A true human being is one who cultivates these three sacred qualities. Get rid of all self-interest and self-centeredness. Develop love, forbearance and compassion. Live harmoniously. Service to the needy should be your guiding principle. There should be no room for any kind of differences in rendering service. When you wish to serve society, you must be prepared to sacrifice your individual and communal interests. Through such sacrifice you can sublimate your life. Scriptures (Vedas) have emphatically declared that immortality can be attained only through sacrifice (tyaga).

When people do not place faith in the Self but pursue the senses only, danger signal is lit and the Lord sends a Messenger or comes Himself, if a great big step in reconstruction has to be taken. Arjuna forgot the basis of the Self, Ravana went against it. The world is building itself up on the sandy foundation of the sensory world. So, Avatars descend. Like the monkey which could not pull its hand from out of the narrow-necked pot, because it first held in its grasp a handful of groundnuts which the pot contained, people are suffering today, since they are unwilling to release their hold on the handful of pleasurable things they have grasped from the world. People are led into the wrong belief that the accumulation of material possessions will endow them with joy and calm. But Prema (Divine Love) alone can give that everlasting joy. Prema alone can remove anger, envy and hatred!
