NAMA, NAMASMARAN AND TOTAL STRESS MANAGEMENT (LAST PART 28) DR SHRINIWAS J. KASHALIKAR
NAMA, NAMASMARAN AND TOTAL STRESS MANAGEMENT (LAST PART 28): DR SHRINIWAS J. KASHALIKAR

Student: Now I can somewhat understand your peaceful dynamism!

Teacher: It is a great solace to be ever aware of the fact that Guru takes care of us like our mother! In fact Guru is our eternal mother! Just as our mother nurtures us in her womb for nine months; our Guru nurtures us through all our lives; through all the circumstances! Like our mother He delivers us at appropriate time; to the realm of immortality; His abode! This is the ultimate victory called GURU-BHET (being one with true self) and GURU KRUPA (the awareness of His most fulfilling benevolence and bounties)!

Student: Sir! Even though I understand what you say and would not like to refute it; isn’t it difficult; at least initially; to believe that Guru does everything; including whatever we can or cannot witness?

Teacher: This question does arise initially! It is because; we have not yet experienced the total control of Guru! Even if we repeatedly reiterate that our Guru is none other than the Almighty Himself; we are always influenced by and involved in; His personal life, His nature, His charisma, His feelings, His articulate preaching and His supernatural and superhuman feats; all embodied in His human form! This is our view about other mystics, prophets and incarnations as well! All of them; while extraordinary, superhuman and supernatural; still have limited capacity; as individuals. Since in their human form; they don’t govern; the complex scientific inventions, rapidly developing intriguing technology, world wars, earth quakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and several cosmic phenomena, we find it difficult to believe in “Guru does everything”!

Student: In other words; we find it difficult to believe in supreme control of Guru; because; we identify Guru or prophets with their human forms!

Teacher: Yes! They appear to be the contingents in the cosmos; to us. The events in the universe appear to be either the products of the concerned individuals or teams; or impersonal, unplanned and automatic. They do not appear to be under the control of our Guru or any other prophet!
Actually; the Guru, mystics, prophets and incarnations of God in human form “do not do” (and do not say; “they do”). They know that their human forms actually “do not” do anything! Their human forms are merely the peripheral instruments through which the activities are executed not caused, designed or controlled! They are aware of the fact that the essence or root of all them as individuals; is the invisible supreme controller; the Mahakaran, the NAMA!

Student: I remember many saints saying that God does everything!

Teacher: Moreover; when it is said that Guru ‘does’; it does not imply an action such as driving a car, delivering a speech or cooking. Here doing implies ultimate control. An inexact analogy is that of superliving space-time! In absence of such superliving space-time; nothing would exist; nothing would work!

Student: This is rather difficult to comprehend! I will just restate and confirm! Firstly; the human forms are not doers; and secondly the expression “Guru does everything” actually implies a supreme and inevitable control! Am I right?

Teacher: Yes! Exactly! Even; all this “writing” and “I” are contingent amidst the eternal kingdom and supreme reign of my Guru i.e. NAMA. “SHRIRAM SAMARTH” also implies the same as “Guru or NAMA does everything”! To put in other way; what we perceive, feel and respond to; constitutes; changing, dependent, deceptive and limited “effects” and NOT the self controlled, independent causal reality. We are merely the instruments, the puppets! Whether great or small, wise or stupid and good or bad; we are puppets! Puppets may blame or adore other puppets just as a sword may blame or adore another sword; for some heinous or noble act respectively.
The controller of all this; is NAMA or Guru; the truly independent causal reality. It is eternal and super controlling cause of all this! It is the ‘field’, in which everything else is a ‘function’ or ‘contingent’. It is the ultimate controlling reality beyond time, space and human consciousness. It is also termed SHRI RAM. The supremacy of this; in every respect is implied in “SAMARTH”! SHRI RAM SAMARTH is simply; the reiteration of this fact and reminder or reorientation to NAMASMARAN and NAMA!

Student: Now I am also experiencing; at least to some extent; the vibrant quietude that has filled you! RAMA KARTA also must be implying the same; isn’t it?

Teacher: Yes! It also implies the same. Looking at it little differently; we are some specific ‘engines’, with some specific energies, specific powers, specific capacity and differing versatilities. This probably holds true for all living, nonliving and other possible entities inside and outside. During our primitive states of evolution and during embryonic life, childhood and even latter; we are not aware of this! That is phase of ignorance.
At some later time; appropriate for us; we become aware of ourselves as “we”! We get charged with our instincts, emotions, thinking, perspective; and some pursuit or another. We begin to be flooded with and enthralled by urges! The urges when in the unconscious realm simply keep manifesting; resulting into temporary pleasures or pains. When we are in conscious realm; the urges prompt us that; “we have to do it, we cannot do without it, we are doing it, we will do it; or we cannot do it”; and give us the associated pains and pleasures; and agonies and ecstasies! Thus our life gets unfolded in the form of all varieties of actions inside and outside.
At some time appropriate for us we realize that everything in our life and the universe is the supreme orchestra of our Guru, who is beyond time and consciousness. RAMA (Guru) and KARTA (the ultimate supreme master implies that)! He is the supreme controller every entity and every event in universe! We also realize that the increasing emergence of NAMASMARAN i.e. reorientation to NAMA i.e. Guru in our life; is His bounty, His Krupa!
We become increasingly grateful as we begin to get an increasing and pleasant assurance from Him that He is always; literally always; with us; nurturing and blossoming; us in as much as the whole universe!
By now; it must have been clear to you; that this is a matter of study, practice and experience; and not of casual or cursory belief or disbelief.

Student: Sir, I have begun to experience the victorious revitalization! I thank our Guru immensely and whole heartedly; for initiating, enlivening, empowering and enlightening me; to be involved in His greatest ever bounty viz. universal mega process of NAMASMARAN and Total Stress Management; through you!
