Celebrate LORD KRISHNA’s Presence for ten days

Billions of years ago, energies from the Ocean of Consciousness and the energies of the Primordial Goddess were combined to create a huge field of Divine Energy.

The main role of this field of energy is to maintain balance in Creation, particularly in the Material Cosmos. The Divine energy helps maintain the equilibrium of everything from sub-atomic particles to atoms, planets, suns, solar systems and galaxies. In other words, everything in our Universe requires this Divine energy for sustenance.

The core of this field of energy is the Divine Personality, Mahavishnu, who takes birth on our earth in different forms whenever unrighteousness dominates our world, and restores harmony and peace. These are the ten Avatars of Mahavishnu.

Lord Krishna is the eighth Avatar of Mahavishnu, who took birth several thousand years ago and gifted us the Bhagavadgita. He taught humanity the Path of selfless service for attaining Yoga (Union with the Divine).

17th August 2014, was Lord Krishna’s birth anniversary. His energies descended to the earth on Janamastami at 12 midnight, as it happens every year. They fill the entire earth, enter every house and remain there for ten days.

During these ten days, let us try to experience Lord Krishna in our Meditations and at other times. 

Let us hope and pray that the presence of Lord Krishna’s energies bring balance and sanity to our world, which is currently in distress. (Based on the teachings of Guruji Krishnananda)

TIMELESS TRUTHS

The opening statement of A Course in Miracles, which has teachings from the Jesus Christ, reads - “Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God.” 

In the Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 2, Shloka 16, Lord Krishna teaches – “The unreal hath no being: the Real never ceaseth to be. The truth about these two has been perceived by the seers of Truth.” (Translation from Sadhu Vaswani’s The Bhagavad Gita: The Song of Life)

Guruji Krishnananda has taught that the whole Creation is made of Light, Consciousness or God. Without Maya we can see only Light. Maya is a gift. It is not a curse or a limitation. God gave us the faculty of #Maya through which we could see the Creation as He created it. 

When #God created many beautiful earths, mountains, trees, butterflies, etc. we found that we could see only Light everywhere. Maya helps us see things as they are created. Everything is Light. Since Light is the Source of everything and Light is real, hence all the forms that emerge from #Light are also real. 

Thus Creation is real, not an illusion. Guruji taught that to believe Creation as permanent is an illusion. 

Creation and our life in it are as real as we want it to be. 

William Shakespeare said this in his own way – “All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players; they have their exits and their entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts.”

The same timeless Truths are taught by Masters in different periods of Time or #Yugas. Such Truths remain the same for every human being throughout history irrespective of their cultural, social, religious, regional and gender identities. Immense gratitude to the#Spiritual Masters and my Spiritual Guide - Guruji Krishnananda.

Human Experience - A Quote from the Rishis - Guruji Krishnananda

"We are Divine Souls; we are here to experience life, the rich diversity and beauty in this world, while we manifest the Divine. The intent behind our choice to incarnate was to go through the human experience. " - Guruji Krishnananda

SOUL COMMUNICATION

At the end of a long day, my husband and I decided to have dinner at a restaurant. I was tired and had a bit of a headache. It was made worse by a naughty toddler at a table after ours. The parents were having a hard time containing this live-wire kid; and they even had to take turns eating morsels from their plates in between running behind this walking-talking big bundle of joy. 

The order we had placed seemed to take forever. The high decibel cantankerous child was really getting on my nerves. So I decided to do something about it; I spoke to the kid’s soul from the very core of my being and requested him to pipe down at least some notches. 

The food seemed to alleviate my mood. Half way through dinner I realized that the kid was still moving around but quietly; even though his helpless parents were still burning calories running behind him. The young family left a few minutes before we did. Up until then, the kid was not noisy in his exploration of the world around. 

Fluke, some might say, but for me it was indeed a soul level communication. There is so much more to us and this Creation.
