God Realization by Divine Name Repetition and Serving

||  Shree Hari   ||

(Naam Japa aur Seva se Bhagwat Praapti )


continued ...
God has placed man in the middle world, whereby he can even serve the higher worlds,  as well as, the lower worlds.   Not only that,  he can also serve God!   God also has some hope from man.    Family members also have expectation.  Serve the family and let the self do Naam Japa.   Also tell others to do Naam Japa"Smarantah smaarayantah",  "Ram naamki loot hai,  loot sake to loot!"    May the Lord's name appear sweet and dear.   If it does not appear loving, then call out to God "O' Lord!  May Your Name be cherished by me!  O' Lord !  Let me never forget You"  Every minute,  every half a minute say this "O' Lord !  May I not forget You".    
 
"bhoole nahin bane kripanidhi bhoole naahin bane"  
"vismaaryate krutavidaa kathaamaartbandho"  (Srimad Bhagwat.  4/9/8) 
Any man that knows the grace of God, how can he forget God?  God has showered His exceptional grace!  He has given us all the body parts; He has given us a mind;  He has given us intellect;   He has given us birth in a good home.    You have been raised in a good place.  You have received good culture,    and you believe in God and you go to satsang (association of Truth).  What a wonderful opportunity He has provided you with!  Now if you do just a little bit more, then, you will attain supreme good!  
 
Those beings that have received a human birth,   God gives those beings the invitation to come to Him!  Just as someone invites a Brahmin, or a sadhu and takes him to their house,  provides a place to sit,  places a plate and glass of water in front of him,  then one does not need to think whether the family will give any food or not?   If they do not give food, then why did they invite him in the first place?   Now that they has provided all the other things, then surely they will also give food as well.   In the same way,  God has given this human birth.  He has given us the inclination and interest for God.   He has given us good associations,   then will he not make us attain Him?  He is ever ready,  please come,  eat to your hearts content, and become eternally fulfilled.  Therefore,  without worrying about God Realization,   do Naam japa,   serve the world, and do not expect anything from anyone.   The world hopes to get pleasure from you.   If you too desire pleasure from those that expect pleasure from you,  then how will there be cheating among the two cheats?   In your mind you wish that let me take from brother-friend, mother-father etc.  and they want to take from you.  Now aren't both conning and cheating each other?   In the end, both will get cheated, and they will gain nothing.   Just as there is great glories of feeding a hungry man and giving drinks to a thirsty man, in the same way,  there is great glories of serving those who wish to be served.   
 
Sisters should want that serve all while living with your husband's family.   While staying at your parent' home, serve all.   Have the feeling within that I will be going away to another home,  when will I have the opportunity to serve – mother, father, uncles, brother, sister etc.?   This body has been attained from mother and father,  they have provided and taken care of me.   I have only taken from my family so far, then when will I give in return?   Therefore,  sisters should want that from childhood, they should start serving.    If you take and take only from your maternal home, then when will you serve them?   They will continue to give for the rest of their life.   Not that you have got rights over your husband's family,  then begin to serve them.  Give them all happiness.   Then see your family life, it will be peaceful and God will also be realized.  
 
Similarly change your feelings and sentiments (bhaav), that I am here to serve.   Daily prostrate at the feet of elders,  both morning and evening.  You do all the work, but give happiness and rest to others.   If you get criticized,  scorned,  reproached,  insulted then bare it.  But you give honor, glories, respect-hospitable to others.   Then you see for yourself,  what joy you will experience!    There will be fondness in the family, and at the same time "Bhajan"  (worship and adoration of God) will take place.   You will see the benefits of "Bhajan".  But if you have expectation from the world, then no gains will be seen.  If you get money,  you get rest and relaxation, then you see it as a benefit.   For this you run around day and night.  You will only get as much as is due to you.   If it is not due to you, then you will not get it.   However, the real wealth is "bhajan" (worship and adoration of God), which you will get only on doing bhajan.   If you do not do, then you will not get it.  Therefore hoard this genuine and real wealth.
