Love Him who loves all
My dear associates in the path
Pranam
In fact I am not able to talk now, having got
myself absorbed in the Infinite grace of my
Master which I shared with all of you. Still
the routine must go on. We have actually quite
a few things to attend to today.
Though Krishnastami is not a centralised
celebration we have, I am happy that so many of
you have thought it fit to come over here and
participate in this happy occasion. Oneness of
Lord Krishna and our beloved Master Babuji
Maharaj is a well known fact for all of us.
Oneness of Dr. KCV with the Master is also known
to all of us. Today happens to be the birthday
of Dr. KCV also. So, though I won't call it
trinity, because I believe in unity and all of
us experienced only unity so far. For very many
emotional and personal attachments, we may think
that to be three. Krishna Consciousness is
total love; love for all. That He loves all of
us, we have all practically experienced, and no
arguments and no discussions need be had on
that. Personal verification does not require
any arguments. There is a peculiar twist that
Babuji Maharaj has given where he said 'Love Him
who loves all'. Krishna loves all of us, fine.
But do we love Him as much as He does? Do we
love our Master as much as He does? This is a
purely personal question for all of you and for
me too. Love has got various meanings for
various people of various ages and climes.
Above all it means sacrifice. Sacrifice a bit
of ours in favour of the other. Sacrifice more
of us in favour of the other. Sacrifice all of
us in favour of the other. This is how love
develops. We have various examples of love -
mother's love, father's love, husband's love,
wife's love, children's love etc. All these
things are partial, but love for God is full,
potent, undivided - it is advaita. It is not
the advaita of Vedanta. It is not the much
brandied out word called advaita. no. The unity
consciousness that we have experienced just now
is advaita. The bliss, the ocean of bliss in
which we were merged and continue to be merged
is advaita. It is inseparable, it cannot be
divided. It is unity. It passes through our
hearts. Mind has no place here. This is not the
realm of the mind. This is the realm of the
heart. Heart knows how to love, mind knows how
to dissect. So, first give up most of your
mind. It is not an easy task. That is the
reason why I have been requesting all of you to
read more and more of Babuji Maharaj. Let his
words sink into our hearts. Let those words be
alone the words that we use on all occasions.
The institute Imperience has been time and again
releasing research notes. This year we thought
it fit that we should write on the article Gita
given by the Master. The article Gita has been
explained by me with all my limitations and is
already available in Bodhayanti Parasparam.
There the Master refers to the condition of
Atman and says seven slokas cover that in
Bhagavad Gita. That made us look into what those
seven slokas are and we found many more
references that Babuji has made in that article.
We have now compiled that particular article
with the slokas put into it. You will now hear
the recording of the same. The book is now to
be distributed. Once you receive that, kindly
go through the article as you hear so that if
there is any deficiency in the recording it will
be made good.
Thank you
