The Enlightenment and Message of Ramanandacharyaji

Guruseva In spiritual journey where devotee follow and dedicate his/her entire life to their spiritual teacher by mind and soul. There is one phase when the devotee get an opportunity to do a guruseva as and when they progress in this divine journey. The guruseva means a mental and physical contribution to guru' s Noble mission of serving society and helping needy human beings. Now it depends on the devotee that how they exhaust this opportunity by doing their best that without any expectations, selfishness, and any kind of ego. Because guruseva is one of the way through which sadguru tries to eliminate bad qualities from the devotee for his better future in this entire journey towards the nirvana. Let's hear more about this guruseva from HH Swamiji himself.

Namasmaran (meditation) : Namasmaran is one of the 9 types of devotion, widely practiced by lot of famous saints. In this type, the devotee chants deity's name or the mantra (a bunch of a Sanskrit words). Some chant it at a particular time in the day and for specific period while some chants it throughout the day while doing their daily chores. At the back of their minds, meditation keeps going on. Meditation has a tremendous power of melting the deity's heart and to bring them close to this physical world close or to the devotee. Scientifically it strengthens our mind, helps increase concentration level, which ultimately leads to help in making right decisions at the right time. To see how this namasmaran takes us close to the God and makes us a beloved child of the almighty, let's hear from this video.

Darpan (Mirror) : Darpan or mirror in spiritualism is a mirror of thoughts which sadguru pass on to their disciples. This mirror is to make them introspect & make them realise about negativity & positivity within themselves. Sadguru's (spiritual teacher) role in spiritualism is to show this darpan to his / her disciples and guide them in translating their weaknesses in strengths & ultimately achieve Nirvana (mukti). This entire process is nothing but a spiritual journey, let's hear in detail from pp swamiji through this video.

Sukh (Happiness ) : Everybody expects happiness, satisfaction, progress, peace & stability in their lives. We always misinterpret these things in terms of money, status, power, prestige etc. However happiness and sorrow both depend on how our mind percieves things around us. Our mind has to be very strong to digest & face whatever comes in our way in the journey of our life irrespective of whether it is happiness or sorrow. If our mind is satisfied then happiness is everywhere and within whatever we have. Some people get all these tangible means of happiness, but some are not capable enough to retain or even utilize it. Hence they see failure which lead them to sorrow. If our mind is strong and healthy to face both happiness and sorrows or even calamities, then we can overcome all these expectations and struggles to fulfill those expectations. Definition of happiness is different for all the individuals, from kids to older people, businessman to beggar.. etc. Now what exactly happiness is, let's hear it in this AV.

Sukha (Happiness) - All the leaving people including you and me,we try, struggle, stretch our lives to seek only happiness. But there are 2 types of happiness - 1 is ashashwat (temporary happiness) and other one is shashwat ( permanent happiness). What as a human beings we are chasing is ashashwat happiness which is a temporary phase of our mind and post that phase we become sad/ anxious to gain other things in our lives. This viscious cycle keeps going on one after another. Whereas shashwat sukha is never-ending. It's not a phase rather it's a state which gives an inner peace & ultimately leads to the mukti (Nirvana stage). How ? Let's check this video.

Nasheeb :( destiny) Every life is born with his or her destiny till her death. Predetermined future events by the God is called as destiny. One believes it or not, but neither one knows what's there in the destiny nor can change it. Destiny is written as per karma of previous life (Janma), hence all the saints keep on emphasizing on our karmas (deeds). Better the karma, better the destiny. As past karma can not be destroyed likewise destiny can't be changed. Even god can't change it, so we human beings are can't even attempt it. There are sometimes 'ifs' and 'buts' in the destiny. That means few things can be achieved with and only with strong will power and seasless efforts. That's belived as changing the destiny. It's not true, it's already written that if we struggle to achieve one thing we can get it & however if we don't put our efforts we won't get the same thing. Something's are strongly written in our destiny that no matter what we struggle we don't get those and sometime we get the same very easily. For more details let's see this video.

Bhakti (Devotion) - an Exercise of mind Life is a beautiful and precious gift that we have received from the God. However, some ruin it just because of lack of a handful of very important things such as self-control, satva Guna, right decision making capabilities, presence of mind, leadership qualities, and thinking ability. All of these characteristics can be gained. Devotion which is an exercise for the mind, as mentioned in spiritualism, can imbibe all these qualities in us. lets hear it from PP swamiji in this small AV.

Ego (Ahankar) : One of the human behavioral qualities that needs immense self-control is our Ego. Also known as a negative aspect which can lead to many other negative emotions & negative behavior due to the former. Human beings crib, cry, struggle & pray to the God when one doesn’t have the desired things in life. And once they possess those things which they were striving for, that gives a feeling of being distinct from others. This ultimately leads into EGO. Ego is followed by power & beyond a point, it makes the individual powerless, as it is a self destructive phase of human mind. It is very important for a human being and it's spiritual journey to stop/ control / avoid this devastating quality (ego) of a human nature. How this ego is born and how much damage it can cause, let's hear it from this peice of disciples of PP Swamiji.

Mann :- Mann which is known as a conscious mind in scientific language. We all try & struggle to satisfy this mind, as much as possible throughout our life, assuming happy Mann means happy life. However this is the most deceptive state of a mind. It is very volatile, it can travel faster than even Ray of light from one place to the farthest one. It can transit from past to future within a fraction of a second. It has a strength to make you feel happy or sad both. And victory is achieved when one can attain peace of mind by successfully controlling this Mann - conscious mind. And to get the total control on our conscious mind we have to do an exercise which is called as meditation. 10 minutes of mediation everyday makes our mind strong, healthy and most decisive & determinant. Lets see this video carefully to know how to do this exercise.

Karma - Everyone desires happiness in their life, which is equally important as stability and progress are. These things can't be achieved without science. However along with science, spiritualism is also equally essential. Whatever in our life we get in terms of happiness and sorrows are a return on our Karma. And whatever we do in our life including our responsibilities is our karma. Karma is very important factor in everybody's life. This spiritual thought process gets inculcated through sanskar. These thoughts purifies our karma & leads in good karma. Good karma always give positive output. How karma playes an important role in journey of any soul? Lets hear this from this AV.

Jivanatil Kartavya (Responsibilities in our life) Every human being is born with a set of responsibilities. And at every phase of a life we have to fulfil different set of responsibilities. As in the schooling phase we have to finish certain tests & tasks successfully, then only we get promoted to the next division. In the career phase we have to accomplish certain set of goals and targets skillfully then only we get appraised. Likewise we have to fulfil our responsibilities in our life with different roles like as a son, father, husband, friend etc. Then only we will get promoted towards nirvana (moksha), or will get better life in the next life. Then our Prapanch would be a better journey. Else we will have to wander in different yonis as per our karma. Because Prapanch is also very important with paramarth. These are 2 aspects of our life journey. And if both are equally well seved then paramatma is with us. Let's understand it well from HH Swamiji himself.

faith : In spiritualism belief is the Crux of any form of devotion. Without belief in deity years of meditation also are worthless. Where the reasoning/ logic ends there the belief starts. It always has to be checked and proven one. Belief is a such huge power which can even turn a stone into the supernatural power. It can move the maintains, It can even melt the heart of a deity. Hence stronger the belief softer and more responsible the deity for the devotee. How? Let's see this video for that.
