Who Are You Doing (Karma) For?

||  Shree Hari   ||

(Karma Kiske Liye)

continued........

There is nothing to be sought from the world, and whatever is done is only for the benefit of the world. For the Self (Swayam) there is absolutely nothing that has to be done at all. It is only to wipe out the inclinations that remain in the mind the inclination to do something that one has to do. If you continue to take honor and respect etc. then the desire to do will never be wiped out. Do for the happiness of the family, but from them do not desire that they in turn will give you happiness. I am "ansh" (part) of Paramatma (Supreme Consciousness), thus the happiness given by family can only reach the body, senses, mind, intellect. It cannot reach me (Self). I have heard about a lady in a family. Someone told her, that these family members are giving you so much pain and sorrow. But she replied, that sorrow does not reach me at all. However much of trouble is given, criticism is given disrespect is given it simply does not reach me. Difficulties and disrespect is of the body, defaming is of the name. How can it reach the spirit (the consciousness, the Self)? Therefore having no desire to gain anything, everything has to be done for the world. Simply by doing for the world, Self Realization will be axiomatic. Enlightenment will happen. If God Realization is desired, then that will happen. If you desire liberation, then that will happen. Benediction will happen. The gain will be eternal.

All that you have received – body, knowledge, wisdom, abilities, etc, it has all been received from the world. Whatever has been received from the world, without any conditions, gift it back to the world. You are part (ansh) of Paramatma, therefore take refuge in Paramatma (surrender to God). Do not take refuge in that which is born and later destroyed. Do not depend on it. Goswamiji Maharaj says –

"Ek Bharoso, ek bal ek aas biswaas

Ek Ram Ghan syaam hit chaatak Tulsidas." (Dohaavali 277)

This world is not yours at all. It has not been attained. It can
never reach you. To desire, to have faith in it, to be reliant and
trust it is inertness, it is stupidity.

"Yeh binati Raghubeer gusaayee; aur aas-biswaas-bharoso, haro jeev-jadataayee" (Vinaypatrikaa 103)

Pray to Bhagwaan to wipe out the inertness, or simply do things for the benefit of others, then to inertness will be wiped out. This body, senses, mind, intellect, abilities, etc all are for the world, nothing is for the Self. That which is created and destroyed what use will it be to the one that is never created element? Think a bit. This jeev (Self) is part of Paramatma, it is consciousness, pure, and ever blissful, it is imperishable, then how can an inert, perishable thing be of any use to it? Perishable thing have been received for the benefit of the perishable world, for it's happiness, for it's rest and relaxation, for spending it. If you consider it for yourself then you will definitely get trapped.

There is not the slightest bit of doubt in this. On getting fame and respect, you become happy – this is such ignorance, such darkness! That which has come together will surely part. It will not stay. If you consider this body as yours then all the illness will come in you, because you have made a mistake at the root level. On singing a harmony, if in the first fret a mistake is made, and the rest of the harmony you are careful in its execution, then is the harmony going to become perfect? In the very beginning if there is a mistake then further on there will be nothing but mistakes.

That reminds me of a story. A man climbed on a camel, and said that before going anywhere, this camel jumps three times, therefore be careful. The man said I will jump off right now the first time itself, to be saved from jumping off over and over again. If the mistake is made right up front then thereafter it is nothing but mistakes. Therefore from the very beginning do not err. Do not consider this body as yours, and through it serve all and do for their welfare.
