amrut is immortal, vani is speech

amrutvani




In case you do not know,
amrut, is immortal,

and
vani is speech.
The idea is to benefit from what the masters have said.

The spiritual masters are the only people who had no business with you. They never wanted anything from you.

Why did Saint Namdev not want anything from you?
A realized person is full of bliss and is complete.

If s/he speaks, it is out of mercy/kindness for those who are still struggling for the pot of
'HAPPINESS'.

They have it; they give it.

That is a saint.
Jesus is one name that can be understood by the Western people. [Unfortunately Jesus was misunderstood then and crucified, he is misunderstood now and institutionalized.]

Spirituality is not an Organization or Institution. It is an individual's quest to seek that, which is so fulfilling that you want nothing more, thereafter. Spirituality is not social work either. [A widely prevalent myth.]

Look at it this way. Every one of us does action prompted by some 'desire'. Is it not correct?
The bottom line of all desires is by getting 'this' I shall be happy.

Does anybody desire 'unhappiness'?

If the quest is happiness, I start looking around to see if there are people who have that happiness.

Be honest and tell me how many completely happy people have you found.

I have found everyone wearing mask, including me. We smile and say, "I am fine." I believe that the person who says so is using the word fine in the sense 'taxed'.

I look at tycoons, then at those who are top in politics and power or in their fields of occupation. The more closely I watch I find that for that person the quest has not ended.

That means, even after getting there, always, always, something else, and something more is desired.

Saints, dressed in tattered clothes, proclaim at the top of their voice that they have found the fountain of happiness, in front of which all the objects, things, known, and unknown of the world pale into insignificance.

The master roars and says the spring of happiness is in your bosom. Do not search outside.

Life is short. I am intelligent enough to know what I want, and who can show me the way.

I have to therefore, hasten towards the goal, which is sought by everyone, 'bliss'.

I CHOOSE to follow in the footsteps of the spiritual masters.

India is a land blessed by many such supermen. Let me just recall their names.

They are Saints:
Namdeo
Dynaneshwar
Sopan
Muktabai (female)
Janabai (female)
Kabir
Gurunanak
Eknath
Tukaram
Ramdas


There are others too.
Some names I have dropped purposely, hoping that
some one will jump and say, "Hey, you did not mention _ _ _ ."
