DownFall of the Soul and Hot it Can Return Home Part 2

DownFall of the Soul and Hot it Can Return Home

Saits loudly and repeatedly enjoin:

“Turn away from the path of sensual pleasures. God is within your body. Seek the true Master and learn from him the way to go in Raise your consciousness above the nine portals and attach yourself to Nam, the heavenly sound, the voice of the Lord that resounding behind your eyes. Concentrate your attention on the Akash(Sky) within, and go up from there to higer regions. 

We have been turned out the “Mansion” and an iron gate has been shut again us.  This can be opened only with the help of a perfect Guro. It is impossible to undertake the journey inside without a Perfect Guide – one who know all the “Ins”  and “Outs” and “Ups” and “Down”  of the dark passage. At every step there are obstacles and hindrances whick make difficult and dangerous for the practitioner to proceed alone. 

Maulanan Rum says:

Find thou a mystic guide

For beset with dangers in this journey

Whosoever without the master

Ventureth on the perth

The “Evil Ones” lead him astray

And cast him into the well (of misery)

If over thy head the protecting hand

Of the guru thour hast not got.

Devilish doubts shall ever keep

Thee perplexed and puzzled.

“Many, wiser than thyself, tried to go on this path but satan lead all them astray.”

When good luck brings you in contact with true Master, offer all your love to Him. Give up attachment to the world and the worldly objects and discard the path of mind and sense.  Take the Master with you and enter inside. He will attach you to Shabd identify yourself with it and become one with it. By and by, you will be able ti withdraw your consciousness, first up to the ankles and wrist, then to the knees and elbows, thense up to the shoulders, and so on. Do not lose heart. But be patient. In due course you will be able to concentrate your attention at the eye center enter within and give up all thoughts of the external world. You will achieve everything. 

First comes the Jhoti the Celestial Flame- out of which emanates a Divine Melody. Concentrate your attention on it and, focussing your suble mind on the vision, penetrate it. Continue this practise everyday giving up love for the world and increasing it for Nam. Desire for Nam grows only by virtue of constant contact with the Master within. The company of worldy men again pulls us down company is most essential our love for the Gurus enables us to give up the path of the mind and turn within. 

When the seeker follow the instruction of the Guru behold the vision of the Celestial Flame, listen to the Divine Music and merges himself in the word he has gone beyond the sphere of mind and matter.  Then by constant Practise Nam, he gets true liberation and ascends to the abode of the Supreme Father.

This is not a small attainment. Whatever may be trials and tribulations, put up with them willingly for it is a sure sign that the soul is on its way up. You have found the path to the Region of Immortality, the land of truth, and placed your feet on the ladder of Nam. Climb up and come to the Realm of the Master. Climb up and come to the Realm of the master. On the way you will cross the Region of Sunn (void), the Region of Maha Sunn(the Great Void)then, the region of “J – Less – Ness” where the soul recognizes its identity with Nam, and ultimately merges in Sat – Nam – the Lord Supreme by faith fully following the directionof the Master, this however, happens only when the Supreme Lord, in his great mercy, awakens in us love for himself because of which we begin our search and meet an adept who is in touch with, Him, get the Secret of Nam and carry out daily the prescribed course (exercises) under his inspiring guidance. Once we get attached to Nam, we have nothing to worry about, for the watches over us as does a mother over her infant babe. Such opportunities do not come every day. Fortunate, indeed, are we to be incarnated in a human body. We should, therefore, get in touch with someone acquainted with nam and on, learning the technique from him, contact Nam.

When the Lord, is His Mercy and grace wants to take us unto Himself, He does so by importing the Secret of Nam, the word, through a Master. We develop Spiritually in the lap of the Mster within, and the word protects us.

“Make thou frien with “Gurmukh”

And be devoted to “Satguru”

Thus cut asunder the chain of birth and death.

Then shalt thou attain Eternal Bliss”.

                                      (Adi Granth)

DownFall of the Soul and Hot it Can Return Home Part 1

DownFall of the Soul and Hot it Can Return Home

Our soul is in Essence, a drop from the Great Ocean of Sat Nam – The True Eternal, Inconceivable Lord without beginning and without end, the creator of all. He is the source of all Bliss, Energy and life. 

          After departing from the source, SAT NAM, the soul of the ENTIRE UNIVERSE descended first into the domain of the mind. Then they were confined in the prison house of the world through the bondage of their desires. They lost awareness of their SIRE, SAT NAME, and forgot their DIVINE ORIGIN. 

          The soul was then submerged in duality which resulted in its encasement in a think, hard shell shell of egotisim. So its lights become clouded by mental aberrations and desires. Treading the path of mind, it strayed further and further away from the path of NAM till at last, all its light and glory got toatally masked. It even forgot that it was “soul” immortal and everlasting and began to identify itself with its various covering with which it had enveloped itself during its descent. 

           It began to call itself  “Body”. First, it took on the causal body, after descending to the causal region when it come down to the Astral Region. Which is the world of potent illusion. It was covered with the astral body. And when it dropped down to the phenomenal world, it was covered with the astral body and when it dropped down to the Phenomenal World, it was covered with the Physical doby, additiona to all the previous coverings. The lower the soul sank the dimmer grew its light. 

          Consequently, whatever we do in this world our action are like those of a blind man groping in the dark. The darkness and ignorance result in confused thinking which in its turn, bring sorrow and suffering. The mind is weak and earning, and is the victim knot with the mind, it has also to under go the suffering of the latter. 

          You will find that in all the bodies and in all the species the soul has indeed a hard lot to face Misery and pain sorround it whatever it goes. To what a sad plight the association w/ the mind and senses has brought it!

          The above aptly illustrates the position of the soul. It runs after the pleasures of the sense and has become a slave to lust, anger, greed, attachment and pride. The mind and the soul have become so tightly knottled together that the soul has to suffer the consequences of the mind’s actions. It keeps moving from one specie to another, each one worse than the former the only exit from this prison was the human form, of which it did not avail itself. the porpose of the SUPREME BEING in bleesing the soul with the most valuable gift of a human body was to afford it an opportunity of release from this vast prison house by devotion to God. 

          Nature is not extravagant. If the soul does not make proper use of its vehicle, it is consigned to the place where it can satisfy its desies and craving. The result is that the soul descent lower and lower till ultimately it sinks to the lowest hell. Man stand at the higest rung of the evolutionary ladder. By carrying out the instruction of a perfect Master, he can gain the rooftop his real Home in SAT LOK.  He follow, however, the dictates of mind and senses, and suffers the consequenses thereof by falling down in the scale of evolution. It may take him countless ages to be born again in the human form. 

          This continuous chain of action and reaction would never have come to an end, had not the SUPREME LORD taken great pity on us in our extreme distress and misfortune. Seeing the soul, his beloved child, in such a sad plight, that ocean of mercy and compassion surged in swelling tided and assuming the human form, come to the world to save us. 

          Further he says:

”Sit silently in quiet corner and listen to the five notes that constantly arise from withine thee”.

“Oh, hust thee and listen thou to the five Melodies coming from heaven”.

God has to assume the human form for our sake becoause only human being can teach a human being. Gods and angel we cannot see, animal and beasts are without understanding or the faculty of speech. When the Great Lord wishes to impart Gyan (knowlege about Himself) to us, He always comes in any other form, we would not have understood His languages. 

All the Saints have expressed similar sentiments.

Maulana Rum Says:

“This world is a prison and we are all prisoner in it. Break through the roof of thy cell and released thy self”

Our soul is “Maha Chetan” (Superconsious Energy) a drop from the ocean of Spirituality, life and energy. It is pure Spirit. Yet in its association with mind and matter it has gathered all the dross, which is the cause of recurring woe and misery. 

The soul is in search of peace and happiness it tries to find it sometimes in one thing and sometimes in another. But where can it find peace in this phenomenal world, where none is happy? Everyone has his own tale of woe to narrate. 

Having reach the top of evolutionary ladder, you should now contact Nam and tread the Spiritual Path to your divine home. If you fail to do so and slide down, you will have to sojourn in this world of changes  and go the various form of creation. 

Swami Ji Says:

“This valuable body you got             

After roaming in millions of lower lives

Now do not lose it in vain pursuits    

Take heed! Give your attention to Devotion 

Have Pity on your poor soul and             

Save it from transmigration’s wheel     

These pleasures and comforts are fo four days

After That a long period of sorrow awaits

Beware! Save yourself from hellfire; Do not make souls its fuel.”
