JANMAASHMITY
(Birthday of Lord Krishna –
incarnation/Manifestation of God – who
gave GITA discourses to the Universe through Arjuna during Mahabhartha War
between Cousins).
Lets Contemplate and Brood
over the matter with a view to imbibe the Principles of Life and its
realization being Immortal on the scientific Law of Centrifugal &
Centripetal as understood by Plato and our Vedic Scholars.
Every year we Hindu’s
celebrate JANMAASHMITY with much pomp
and show, ado to adore the Birth of Lord Krishna by taking tab lows /Jhankies
on vehicles and trolleys driven by Petrol, Diesel and or by other means.
Processions are long enough to occupy the main roads putting normal life of our
gear and traffic problems have to be managed by State Police and Volunteers of
the Organizing committee(s) but in spite
of that it is difficult for students to study for examinations, for patients to
have rest in Hospitals and/or even within their own homes, for passengers to
reach Railway stations or Buss stands and most
importantly for ambulance to shift patients to Hospitals apart from the
expenditure incurred for arranging the long processions. I have expressed my
views to share the common concern with my fellow devotees of Lord Krishna to
ponder over the situation without bias and prejudices but in the correct
meaning and spirit of the situation and answer whether all this show and processions is worth while the expenditure
and the inconvenience suffered by our sisters and brothers and children ? Secondly shall it not be beneficial if we
honestly IMBIBE the Principles of Life
and realize the ATMA/SPIRIT about which Lord Krishna has said IT IS IMMORTAL
AND CANNOT BE DESTROYED but changes it forms. DO WE ACHIEVE THIS through these long processions????
WHETHER WE HAVE LEARNT ANY GOOD VALUES OF LIFE FROM
LIFE OF LORD KRISHNA AND/OR FROM THE EPIC MAHABHARTHA through these costly and
trouble some long processions??
FITTEST IS THE SURVIVAL is the Law of the Nature. King Kansa
brother of Devki mother of Krishna was
told by some astrologers that a child of her sister shall kill him and to save
his life he killed all the children of her sister and had put her in Jail when Krishna was due for birth. But destiny is superior and it
manages to happen in spite of all your precautions. We have not learnt this message and still visit astrologers and/or so called
God men to seek some means/Upyas to surpass the destiny. Hence, what use of
celebrating Janmaashmati when we have
not to learn any thing from the past history. Is it not simply a flaunt show and waste of money ,
Time and Man Power?
SATIRE . Dhropdi had remarked ‘ son of a blind is blind’ and this was one of the causes
for the Mahabhartha war. What we have learnt? Whether we have stopped satires? NO. and
because of that war of Mahabhartha is still being fought in every domestic
home. To take revenge on Dhropdi, Kaurvas tried to make her naked in full view
of Darbar/ Public. What we have learnt?
Ladies are being molested, made naked and Raped in full public view even
today.. Is this lesson we have learnt?
And we say we must be proud of our culture. What culture putting wife on
stake in the game of gamble.
Greed for Property: Ever since the known history of Humanity ZAR (Wealth/Money) ZAMEEN
(Land/Property) & JOHRU (WOMAN) had been, still are and would ever be the
three causes for distress, discard, quarrels, fights and wars among people on
personal level and/or on national level and the same were at the time of
Mahabhartha. Kurvas did not agree to the
wise counseling of Lord Krishna to give Pandavas even five villages out of
their lost Estate resulting into the righteous war in spite of the Power & Position of Lord Krishna
since insane people never adhere to the sane advice. Lord Krishna was neither
emotional nor sentimental and He advised
Arjuna to fight the righteous war without caring for close relationships
because an offender is an offender whether a stranger and/or a kith & kin
since body is mortal but soul within is
immortal it changes forms just as you change clothes every day. I put the
Question to my readers Whether we have learned, Understood and followed the
message of immortality of the soul through meditation and realized the divine
soul within our body, the functioning ENERGY within you may call it by any name
ATMA, PARMATMA OR GOD AND THAT YOUR BODY
IS THE UNIQUE TEMPLE OF GOD WITHIN YOU TO BE WORSHIPED. In case you may
realize the supreme wealth within you
may not feel the temptation for objective wealth in the form of valuables for
life in stead of VALUES OF LIFE. Since values of Life have dwindled, Love, regards,
affection have vanished people are mad for the above said three causes of
unrest, discard in society. Parents and relatives are insulted, abused,
abandoned and even killed for the sake of Property and women are molested,
abused and raped which does not behoove good for the so called civilized
society. Society needs to be educated, cajoled
and made to understand that we all are connected with the Supreme Soul/Atma the segment of which is
within us. We all are beloved children of GOD and human brotherhood./ Fraternity is our religion and we must Love
each other from Heart to Heart and Soul to Soul level for happiness and
Ecstasy in life without causing hatred, noise, pollution of any kind injurious to our health because of superfluous long
processions causing hazardous to life.
LIFE IS A MYSTERY TO LIVE WITH LOVE AND PLAY. Lord Krishna is
a multi dimensional personality and each one is us is so. His Life must be
imbibed in letter and spirit for harmony in society. He used to perform Leelas
with friends including females called gopies. Lord Krishna had two wives
Rukmani & Satyabhama as patranies but Radha was his soulmate because of
whom he became Lord Krishna from Krishna . Just
as a space craft/ rocket has two Engines to produce double energy to enter into
levitation zone from gravitation zone after crossing the
buffer zone in the same manner a Sadhak, a spiritualist needs double Energy for
the realization of the SELF within and following this scientific method his
girl friend proved useful to provide the launching pad by becoming soul mate of
Krishna and they both achieved the Divine status and Krishna became Lord
Krishna, the Incarnation / manifestation of Divine omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient
ENERGY and name of Radha is prefixed
with his name and worshiped. This
shows that society of that era was bold enough to understand the need of a soul
mate and could tolerate and feel at home the dances of Lord Krishna with 1000
plus gopies and every gope felt as merged and melted into the Supreme Soul of
Lord Krishna. I am afraid if the
fundamentalists and morel policing people may tolerate in case Lord Kirshna
visits now with his soul mate Radha although people do recite their name names
as Radha Krishna and/or even Radha Radha to please Lord Krishna. I cannot
afford to miss the concept of ARDHNARIISWAR
half male + half female merging
and mingling of negative & positive energy for the manifestation of Light
and/or Divine Light. I pose a question to my readers whether we
have learnt, understood , followed and are prepared to accept the doctrine for
self realization by following SPIRITUALITY rather than the flaunt shows organized by
Religion. Reality must be learnt, understood and followed in the best interest
of humanity at large and LORD KRISHNA IS THE SUPER HERO OF HUMANITY. WE MUST CELEBRATE
HIS BIRTH DAY IN RIGHT PRESPECTIVE.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE OCCASION OF JANMAASHTMI TO
EVERY DEVOTE OF LORD KRISHNA WHO FOLLOWS AND PRACTICES AND IMBIBES THE LIFE OF LORD KRISHNA .
JAI RADHAKRISHNA
BLESS YOU ALL WITH WISDOM TO ACCEPT LIFE
AS IT COMES FROM MOMENT
TO MOMENT AND TO ALWAYS LIVE IN PRESENT. GOD & LIFE ARE NO
WHERE BUT NOW – HERE A HIFEN MATTERS MOST.
