Kashi Gita - 7th Bilva Leaflet
O humanity! Hear My song -- Be attentive to realize it (chorus)
Valmiki wrote Yogavasishtham and – Vyasa wrote Brahma Sutras,
Both are scholars of Nivrutti, - their epics are not simple Pravrutti,
They are not simple novels – for entertainment of children as stories.
In Vedas and Shastras you get – confusion frequently in analysis,
These epics are clear spiritual knowledge – with real practical solutions.
God acted in different roles and – His liberated souls assisted drama,
The drama is a message for world – both in Pravrutti and Nivrutti.
Entertainment of God in different roles – is a secondary issue only.
You should worry about message only, - entertainment is unrelated.
A person may start a college – to escape tax on his huge wealth,
That point is unnecessary – for the student studying in the college.
If any injustice happens in tests, - he can blame management for that,
But if he does not study well – and failed in the examination, for that,
He cannot blame management for – starting college on tax problem.
Similarly, if justice is violated, - you can blame God for that point only,
You cannot blame Him for creating – world to get entertainment.
Some times justice appears to be – violated due to coincidence only,
You might have committed a crime, - yesterday and you have forgotten,
Today you are donating food – to beggars in a temple and police came
Today to arrest you in temple, - you link arrest with donation of food,
Both are accidentally linked but – both are not at all linked in any way.
Similarly, for past deeds forgotten, - you are punished here today and
Today you may be doing good deeds, - past sins are de-linked with
The present good deeds, time is taken – even in the state rule here.
The life of human incarnation starts – like that of ordinary person
Involved in various problems, - He becomes devotee of God with
The help of a preacher and – comes out with success and all this is
A message for world and – God also is entertained in that role of soul.
The aspect of His entertainment – is unnecessary for you,
Only the message is related to you, - Rama was fighting with Ravana,
He was vexed with serious problem – in killing Ravana for a long time.
Agastya approached Him and – advised Him to worship the Sun,
Rama worshipped Sun and – got victory over Ravana in the war.
If you analyze background deeply, - sun is inert globe of energy and
Energetic form of sun as angel is – servant working with fear of God.
Rama is God and how can He worship – inert globe or inner servant?
Is Agastya sage ignorant of all this? – It is only a message for world.
God acts in the drama along with His – routine troop of liberated souls.
The background should not be – analyzed, analyze the message only.
When problems come to a good person, - preacher himself should
Approach and give proper advise, - the preacher should advise him
To worship God and not monism – that he himself is God already.
If he is already God, He should enjoy – even the problems like cinema.
God in medium only should be – recommended for worship of a soul.
External inert globe is gross body, - inner servant as energetic form is
Jeevatman, the angel, with subtle – and causal bodies is medium.
It is pervaded by God like wire – by current, he becomes God.
All this is the same story of – human incarnation in this world.
The angel is a medium with – all the three bodies, a liberated soul.
Worship of sun becomes worship of – God through the medium,
Energetic form is suggested because – repulsion to co-human form is
A common illness of humanity, - Rama worshipped Vasishtha in the end.
Vasishtha is human incarnation of – Brahma, Rama is of Vishnu,
Hanuman is of Shiva, Datta is – divided in to three basic roles.
Vyasa was Brahma, Krishna was Vishnu, - Radha was Shiva for Nivrutti.
Sattvam is Vishnu, the spiritual knowledge; -Brahma is Rajas, the action,
From Vishnu Brahma is born, it means, – knowledge generates practice.
In practice opposition comes and – several advises try to divert you,
Rejecting those advises and their – ignorance in your mind is necessary.
Finally Shiva is Tamas or ignorance, - it is also essential in the end.
After attaining God through knowledge, - practice is the next step,
Ignorance of all things other than God – is essential for concentration.
Veda says that OAM is bow, soul is arrow, - God is the target for you,
Here the arrow is not the target, - hence the soul is not God at all.
First knowledge of bow, arrow and – target is necessary and then
Action of applying arrow on bow – and diversion from sides is action,
Finally fixation of eye on target is – achieved by the ignorance of
All other side items only and such – ignorance is final concentration.
Thus, ignorance or rigidity is – created by God for good purpose only.
When it is used in proper place, - it becomes good and hence,
Every thing in this world is good – since God created it.
Anything becomes bad when – it is used for other purpose than
The purpose for which God created it, - even in Pravrutti, it is needed.
When a friend hurts you and repents, - you have to forget the past,
Here ignorance of past is needed, - devotees are born from Shiva only.
Radha and Hanuman were rigid devotees, - even Gopikas were also
Followers of Shiva as sages in – past birth with pasted hair and skin,
All their physical nature indicates Shiva, - hence Ramanuja told that
Shiva is the king of devotees, - it is unfortunate that Vaishnava devotees
Criticize Shiva, are they not demons – like Hiranyakashipu who criticized
Vishnu? When Uddhava came and–started preaching Advaita philosophy,
Gopikas told that there is no space – in their minds other than Krishna.
They were rigid to learn anything – other than their Krishna, who was
Their contemporary human incarnation, - similarly Hanuman was rigid
In His firm faith on Rama in spite of – various severe tests of Rama.
God born as Master is Vishnu, - same God born as devotee is Shiva.
Rama and Krishna are not imaginary, - they are the absolute truth,
This world is imaginary for God, - the stone bridge in the ocean
Towards Lanka and the immersed – Dwaraka traced now in the sea
Stand as historical proof for truth, - atheists are rigid stones,
No use of preaching to them, - like blow of conch shell before deaf,
Kauravas did not listen Krishna, - even several sages tried to change
Duryodhana, Krishna showed – cosmic vision but every thing was waste.
Atheists criticize that Rama – took wine according to Valmiki Ramayana,
Non-vegetarian food and wine – are allowed for dynasty of Kshatriyas,
Even God follows the tradition of – a community in which He is born,
Following the tradition, - He mixes with the community and slowly
Reforms the community, - it is like following the running bull initially,
To stop it after some steps, initial mixing is essential for preaching.
Same Rama was born as Buddha, - Buddha condemned that food and
Preached non-violence of all – living beings opposing non-vegetarians.
Datta was born in the caste of – Brahmins for whom wine is prohibited,
Still Datta drinks to mislead - devotees from their firm faith on Him,
Datta drinks to help undeserving, – because undeserving can’t be helped
According to law of justice and – He forgets justice by drinking wine.
But these undeserving fellows – criticize Him for drinking the wine!
These atheists should not have – been born as human beings here,
If Datta doesn’t drink wine, - these souls will be born as animals.
Some criticize Rama for testing Sita – in fire and leaving her in the end.
What ever God does is always correct, - you may not understand it deeply.
When Sita was in Lanka, She thought – that Rama will go back and
He will marry several girls to enjoy, - Rama knows every word.
In the end Rama was angry, - no body could understand that.
Rama gave punishment to her, - by stating that she is free to marry
Any body like Bharata or Vibhishana, - Rama uttered even the names,
It is payment of capital with interest, - Sita entered fire and came out.
It is temporary prison for hurting God, - hurting devotee is more severe.
Sita blamed Lakshmana for bad thought – over her, Rama punished it,
Rama left her permanently and Sita – entered earth forever for this.
Entering earth forever is like – life long imprisonment for highest sin.
If you treat Shiva as top devotee, - you should respect Him more, since
Ramanuja told that hurting devotee – is greater sin than that of God.
Rama is a king to punish sinners - and save them from going to hell.
If He cannot punish His wife, - how can He punish outsiders as king?
Rama saved Sita from hell, - she directly goes to His abode now.
You should have faith in God – even in the absence of explanation.
When Drona was preaching Arjuna, - he asked Arjuna to see only
The target which is the eye of bird, - does it mean that Arjuna is blind
In not seeing any other thing? – Such blindness is essential in the end.
If you say that you will not go to school – unless the sweet is given,
Such rigidity is not good, - but rigidity in studies is very much desirable.
The same rigidity becomes good or bad – by the context of its use.
In the hundred and eight names of Datta – one name is that He is rigid.
Rigidity or Tamas is God Shiva, - representing full ignorance only.
Ignorance about God is condemned, - not ignorance of world of devotee.
Ignorance of world of a person, – who is not devotee, is not good.
If you are in Pravrutti, you should have – knowledge of world fully.
But if you are immersed in Nivrutti, - ignorance of world is essential.
Ignorance of every thing other than God – is the unique concentration.
No quality is good or bad – by itself, it is just a pure colorless crystal.
If it is near red gem, it becomes red, - if it is near black, it looks black,
If the quality is for God, it is good, - if it is for world, it is bad only.
Within the limits of bad world and – in the absence of context of God,
Good and bad exist in world relatively, - both are absolute bad before God.
By charity in sacrifice Dharma Raja – went to heaven, third upper world.
By debauchery, Gopikas crossed – top most Brahma Loka and reached
The eighth specially created upper world – called as Goloka forever.
Color of crystal is decided by – color of gem only standing near it.
A thorn burnt in fire becomes – sacred ash to be applied on forehead,
Sweet sugar fallen in mud pond – cannot be put on your tongue.
Devotees worshipping human energetic form – like Vishnu also reach
Brahma loka, abode of God, - due to liking for the human form in it.
But they return back from there, - due to repulsion of common media.
The soul in the upper world gets – human energetic form similar to
The human energetic form of Vishnu, - repulsion starts as usual.
Such repulsion will not exist there, - if the soul here in human body
Over comes common repulsion and – serves human incarnation.
The theme every where is simple, - God in human form competes
With the strongest bond of soul, - money is the ball of test game.
The strongest bond is always – with the child for any soul here.
Manikantha was God in human form, - His stepmother was queen,
But the queen gave birth to son, - kingdom is in competition now.
Queen asked Manikantha to get – milk of tiger for her headache,
So that He will be killed and her – son becomes the king in future!
God in human form suffered – defeat before the strongest bond.
Kaikayi was loving Rama more than – her own son for His divinity.
But the competition for wealth came, - she asked Rama to go away.
Krishna stole the wealth, butter, - elder Gopikas complained this
To His mother Yashoda, so that – they can feed children with butter.
The bond with child is called as – Anahata chakra or unbeaten,
Since no body could cross this bond, - when God competed with it.
These six chakras are the six bonds, - first for mother, second for father,
Third for husband or wife, fourth, - for children, fifth for preachers and
Sixth for angels, chakras mean – capturing whirl pools in World Ocean. These are represented by six – lotus flowers that attract soul bees.
Devotion needs ignorance as - the basic stage in the divine play,
If ignorance is removed totally, - God only remains, no entertainment.
If ignorance is removed, - even Mula Maya disappears, no world.
You will disappear since – gross body of matter and inert energy,
Subtle body of three basic qualities – along with soul, causal body,
All three bodies are of Maya, - Maha Maya and Mula Maya only.
Every thing up to Primordial energy – is His creation, His property.
What is there that you can sacrifice – to Him? since you are also
A part of His creation or property only, - using this basic knowledge,
Some clever devotees escape – sacrifice to God covering selfishness.
The concept of devotion and – entire divine play disappears,
If you say that you are God and – that this world is unreal to you.
Advaita limited to human incarnation – is extended to every body
For this simple reason only that – one can escape sacrifice to God.
Hence Maya or ignorance is very much – required for devotion.
If you realize that your money is – the money of God only,
It means that you are giving to God – because it His money!
If it is your money, you will not give, - is this real sacrifice?
You will give your money to your child – but not to God,
It means God is not even equal to – your child, no point of more,
Hence even if it is the money of God, - God covers you with Maya,
By His Maya, ignorance falls on you, - you think that it is your money.
Now sacrifice comes for test, - God and child compete with each other.
Now the strength of your love to God – comes out with true color.
Ignorance, Tamas, the quality of Shiva, - is the basis of devotion.
God comes down not only – as master but also as servant,
Both Rama and Hanuman are God, - the address of God lies
Not only in the human incarnation, - but also in devotee, some times.
God acts as devotee to show path – of devotion to the humanity.
He undergoes all normal life – facing all sorts of severe problems.
In fact, all these problems – are only sins of His devotees.
I am giving spiritual knowledge – through this body of Datta Swami,
I will propagate this knowledge – through devotees of Datta Swami.
The same current moves fan and – lightens tube light, works differ,
But the inner current is one and same, – it is a teamwork always.
All the devotees participating in – the propagation of this knowledge
Become human incarnations, - since I will enter into them.
Only blessed devotees of My – inner most circle or family alone
Will propagate this knowledge – to give guidance to entire world.
Never ask God for giving devotion, - because it is the highest insult,
It means that you are not having – real spontaneous devotion already.
If the girl asks the boy to put efforts to – create love on him in her,
What does it mean? It means – that the girl is unable to love him
In spite of hectic efforts from her side, – since she hates him always,
But she wants to love him and marry – to get rich life from his wealth,
Therefore, when you ask God for – devotion, it means that you are not
Loving God spontaneously as – you love your family members here.
But you want to love God – so that you can be loved by God in return
To attain the best fruits, - hence you are praying God to give you
The devotion to Him, if God grants –devotion to you as per your prayer,
Then such granted love by God – is not natural but artificial only.
A politician gets masses for his – speech by paying money to public,
The attendance of masses is not the – real interest of public in him.
The story of real love is quite – opposite to this, the girl loves the boy,
The boy refuses her love and – she is running after him even insulted.
Such love is true, love should be – from your side and not granted from
The other side, God doesn’t like – such artificial devotion or love to Him.
He likes true devotion only, - when you run after Him, He insults you,
But still you are after Him only, - that is the true devotion liked by Him.
Some pray God for constant devotion, - it is funnier, because it means
That even if the devotion is granted – by God, they are sure that it will
Disappear by more attractive world, - God should save devotion there!
It looks like praying the teacher to help – in the examination by giving
Answers so that one gets – first class, is it real first class? Not at all.
Similarly if God gives you constant – devotion and you win His tests
To get eternal fruit, is it real test? – Is it real victory based on justice?
God helps devotee putting effort, - no doubt in this promise of God.
But the help of God is indirect and – not direct help in the examination.
The teacher teaches you several times – so that you will pass in it.
This is indirect help for your success – in examination, quite justified.
Similarly God will preach you knowledge – more and more clearly,
Knowledge generates devotion, - better knowledge, better devotion.
By knowledge you have to yourself - decrease attraction to the world.
It is your total duty to develop interest – in God by your self only.
The knowledge of God and world – are clearly explained to you.
God will not put His finger in – your determination and your action.
Krishna analyzed God and world - clearly in Gita and finally told
Arjuna to take final decision, - same knowledge is fruitful in some,
In some it becomes waste, - Arjuna listened but not Duryodhana.
Same rain becomes mud in pond, - but becomes pearl in pearl shell.
Rain and shell are equally important, - in fact shell is more important.
The samskara or attitude accumulated – for the past millions of births
Becomes the main responsible factor, - a wet stick will not catch fire,
Your matchbox becomes empty, - attitude is generated from deeds,
Attitude again generates deeds, - it is a cycle with fixed composition.
Good and bad are fixed in a ratio, – the ratio is fixed in all the births.
The soul rotates and rotates in the – same cycle continuously forever.
The soul comes down from upper worlds – with the remains of attitude.
The composition of this attitude – will generate deeds in the same ratio.
The fresh deeds yield fruits, - now you may say that your past deeds
Are responsible for your present fruits, - it is exactly correct statement.
Your past deeds in a specific ratio – generated attitude in same ratio,
Your present deeds are also in same ratio, - yes, your present fruits
Touch the past deeds as root cause, - in the chain of deep analysis.
The attitude should be strong to – generate a deed in action for fruit.
A weak attitude gives feeling only, - it has very little fruit, no fear.
As long as some body is not hurt – practically, you are not punished.
Even the weak attitude is not good, - it may become strong shortly.
Punishment for sin and pleasure – of heaven for good deeds is
Limited to Pravrutti only and not – in Nivrutti, a totally different field.
Nivrutti is limited to God and your self - God is never hurt by you.
In Nivrutti every attitude and deed – is sacred, God sees your love only.
The attitude can change its ratio – by hearing spiritual knowledge only.
No other method like fasting, chanting etc., - is useful to change attitude.
You can come out from routine cycle – by the sacred knowledge only,
So says Gita, in the new ratio sin may become – zero and full good.
Then you will do good deeds and – enter heaven again and again.
You can even change attitude to – reach the eternal abode of God.
Analysis of knowledge is your duty, - clear all your doubts from Me.
Attitude is the main factor to lead you – to hell or heaven or God.
Attitude is generated and changed also – by the power of knowledge.
Hence, Satguru, God in human form – is the most important guide,
His spiritual knowledge is real path, - He is your real goal also finally.
Abode of God called, as Brahma loka or – Vaikuntha or Kailasa is not
A particular place existing some where, - it is the place where God lives,
God can live in any place as He likes, - He does not exist everywhere.
His power exists everywhere, - you can say indirectly that God is
Existing everywhere, if He is – everywhere like gold in the chain,
Veda cannot say that God entered – the world after creating it.
God exists in this world in human form – in every human generation
Giving equal chance to every generation, - a human being charged by God
Becomes God like live wire, - similarly in the second upper world, sky,
Which is called as Bhuvarloka or Dyuloka or – Jyotirloka, abode of stars,
God exists charging energetic body – of sun called as Surya Narayana.
If you take isolated medium only, - the sun, he is only servant of God.
Similarly, in human incarnation, - if you isolate the human being,
He is just a liberated soul selected – by God to become human incarnation.
Veda says that two birds live on tree, - one is God and other is the soul
Selected by God, simile can be – applied even to ordinary human being.
One is soul and other is intellect, -In both cases tree is inert gross body.
Yoga Vasishtha explains monism, - remember, it is told to Rama, who is
The human incarnation already, - the subject is limited to incarnation only.
Vasishtha is also human incarnation, - He is Brahma in human form here.
Monism applies to speaker also, - If you extend it to every body,
Then the speaker is only a sage, - the medium or the liberated soul.
Gita told to Arjuna refers to God – present in Krishna, a liberated soul.
But same Krishna as medium or – the liberated soul told Gita again.
In the first Gita, monism is limited to – Krishna only and not to everybody.
The second chapter explains about – soul to be isolated from gross body.
Soul is subtle and unless you isolate subtle – from the visible item first,
How can you isolate unimaginable God – from the subtle soul? It is only
A training for future, God in human incarnation – is beyond subtle soul.
Unimaginable is very near to subtle, - soul in human incarnation is said
To be His abode in this sense, - otherwise, God pervades all over bodies,
All the three bodies, Atman, - Jeeva and gross body are pervaded by Him.
Devotees want to see, touch and serve Him – directly and for them only
He came down; nothing is impossible – for Him being omnipotent God.
If you say that He cannot pervade - gross body, He is not omnipotent.
Omni potency does not mean that He – does every thing, it means only
That He can do anything but He does – that, which is justified only,
Satisfaction of devotees is justified, - He satisfies them in this way.
Who are you to say that God doesn’t – come in human form here?
If some thing is impossible to you, - don’t apply it to omnipotent God.
Satisfaction is very important – in Pravrutti, if you are satisfied with
What you have already, God – always likes to give you more and more.
If you are not contented already, - you will not be contented always.
There is no use of giving more – to you since you will ask more again.
In Nivrutti, no satisfaction at all, – as you see in singing about God.
You derive continuous happiness – directly in His wonderful memory.
Why should you ask something through – devotion to get happiness?
That worldly item asked by you – is giving illusion of happiness only.
Worldly items start and end with – sorrow, they give sorrow in middle also.
A mirage never contained or will – never contain water, it has no water
Even now, the water seen by you – in the present is only an illusion.
If memory of God gives such happiness, - think about co-living with Him!
Bliss comes directly from God, - no brokerage of worldly items in middle.
Hence, pray God with the desire of God – only and not with other desires.
Narayana is very important name, - often spoken by Ramanuja and Madhva.
Even Acharya of Shankara peetham – writes the name Narayana only
In the end of his letter, name of God – is applicable to Him with sense.
Our names are only for identification, - the sense is not applicable to us.
A person called as Harishchandra – speaks always lies throughout life!
Narayana means the abode of spiritual – knowledge, He is Satguru.
Shankha represents the throat, - poets give shankha as its simile.
Throat is the instrument for preaching – the spiritual knowledge.
Chakra is called as Sudarshana, - it means good view or clarity.
It cuts misinterpretations, demons, - similarly Damaruka and Trisula.
Garland of beads indicates repetition – of concept in several angles and
The sacred water jug indicates - the purity of soul through knowledge.
All these six are symbolic – representations seen in six hands of Datta.
Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are – simultaneous energetic forms of God,
Rigid conservative devotees – take one only as the real ultimate God.
Wise devotees recognize all – the three as simultaneous forms of God.
God entered all three forms – simultaneously like current in three wires.
In the same way there can be – simultaneous human incarnations here.
Rama and Parashurama existed – simultaneously as human incarnations,
Same Vishnu existed in both – simultaneously, devotees of Vishnu agree,
But same devotees do not agree – this concept in Vishnu, Shiva and Brahma.
Same God can exist in three, - as same Vishnu existed in both human forms.
Sai Baba and Akkalkot Maharaj – were simultaneous incarnations of Datta.
Even Rama Krishna Paramahamsa – existed in that time as third form.
This is not impossible for omnipotent God, - you accept omnipotent God
On one side and do not accept – the possibility of simultaneous incarnations
On the other side, you accept concept, - but not its justified application.
You can object application of concept, - if it is not justified by any logic.
God wants to deal different devotees – in different places in the same time,
He takes simultaneous forms as media, - to fulfill His multidimensional work.
When there is necessity and when God is – omnipotent to meet the necessity,
Are you auditor to object His accounts? – You have no right even to object
The necessity of other souls, you being – a tiny soul among many other souls.
How can you object the omnipotent God? – You can object your subordinates.
You can’t object your equal souls – and certainly not the superior God.
God is certainly unimaginable, – but God can be experienced by anyone.
When you experience unimaginable – nature, God is experienced.
Experience does not mean that you - have understood unimaginable God.
When you say that the solution of – a problem is unimaginable to you,
Does it not mean that you have – experienced it as unimaginable item?
The characteristic of God is – unimaginable nature, it is experienced,
It means unimaginable God is – experienced, experience does not
Contradict unimaginable nature, - after all, you can say that something is
Unimaginable when you experience that – it is unimaginable to you.
Knowledge is constantly associated – characteristic of God for identity,
But knowledge exists in scholar also, - God is isolated from scholar by
The specialty of knowledge of God – that cannot be seen anywhere.
This specialty of knowledge comes – from unimaginable nature of God.
The unimaginable nature of God – is mixed with the knowledge and
The knowledge becomes special – or unimaginable or wonderful.
The special knowledge has - two components, one is knowledge and
The other is unimaginable nature of God, - both are experienced items.
Knowledge is quality or Sattvam, - it is imaginable and experienced.
Such knowledge mixed with unimaginable – nature of God becomes
Unimaginable knowledge and both are – items of experience only.
Knowledge remains imaginable, - but the unimaginable nature
Makes it wonderful and this is – called as Prajnanam by Veda.
The point in His knowledge is – clear and imaginable to you.
But you have not heard that point – anywhere in the world before.
Hence the point is imaginable by virtue – of its knowledge component.
By virtue of the unimaginable component – it is unheard anywhere.
You have not imagined that point – so far and this is unimaginable.
This does not mean that the point – itself is unimaginable to you.
For example you have read - Ramayana and Bhagavatam before,
You know that Gopikas worshipped – Krishna and Hanuman worshipped
Rama, now you start worshipping – Rama and Krishna as statues.
But the point there is that Gopikas – did not worship statue of Rama,
Hanuman did not worship statue – of Vamana, past human incarnation.
It means that you have to worship – your contemporary human incarnation.
This point is understood now by you, - it is very simple to understand.
But you have not imagined this point – so far, so it was unimaginable.
Both components are experienced, - no objection of experience to
The unimaginable component - as said above, hence total Prajnanam
Being experienced by you results – in the experience of God, speaking
Prajnanam through your contemporary – human incarnation, the Satguru.
