Shree Hari

There is no one even equal to God. Arjuna says to God -
Na tvatsamo'styabhyadhikah kuto'nyo lokatraye' pyarpratimaprabhaava (Gita 11/43)
i.e. Thou are of illimitable power and effect; there is none like You; how can then anybody be more higher than what you are!"
To attain such an Almighty God, there must be a deep and intense longing within. He is so sweet. When He takes the flute in His hand and stands in the three angled position, at that time He appears so adorable. There is so much attraction, such magnetic power within Him ! there is much dearness. If an aspirant meditates on Him even a little bit, then he will be much blessed. His instincts will not be able to go towards the world at all.
"Narayana" binaa mol bikee ho yaaki naik hasan mein |
Mohan basi gayo mere man mein |
If that Lord even smiles a little bit, then everything of yours will come to an end; nothing else will remain. You will not need to do anything. Neither love, knowledge, liberation etc. will be of any value in front of Him. Saints have said -
That son of Nand has such attraction that if you look into His eyes one time, then there will be no strength left to inquire on Brahma. While such a Lord is present, we get trapped in perishable and sorrow giving worldly objects. We are not only entangled, we are wanting these things and asking for them. We want honor-prestige, rest-relaxation, disease free, amenities, wealth-riches etc and various sorts of pleasure giving objects - this is a very great obstacle.
Even if intense longing for God Realization is not awakened, then do not be afraid. God says - "vyavasaayaatmikaabudhirekeh" (Gita 2/41) " "In the blessed path, the intellect is determinate and concentrated." Therefore you determinately decide this only that I will only walk the path towards God. If through inquiry and thinking, this desire and longing is kept alive and awakened, then this longing will on its own become intense. The reason for this is that the longing for God is true and the desire for the world is false. The self is also imperishable, and so is God. And the desire and longing for God is also imperishable. However, the world and the desire for the world – are both perishable and destructible. Even if the desires pertaining to God are awakened slightly, than a very great and important work will be completed. (to be continued)
