Sixth Sense !!

Jai Gurudev !!


When all the animals are born with 5 senses , what's the idea behind the Nature , developing a Human with an additional sense called as sixth sense ?!


As the nature of 5 senses goes , every sense would like to do whatever they want just  unlimited ...
The Eyes get engrossed itself in watching things be it good or bad
The Ears keeps listening to unwanted gossips - nonstop
The Tongue indulges in eating always -the junk food...
The same with the sense of touch and smell too,..

But , by introducing a new sense called as Sixth sense ,
it's made possible to keep a watch on  the other 5 senses from overindulgence rather
to have a control over the 5 senses , the sixth sense is being incorporated !!


Hence with the Sixth sense , the highest form , the Man who has the power to have a say on his senses came into existence !!


But even with that Sixth sense , if we do not have the Self Control, then is the purpose served ?!
Think , Oh Man .. Think !!

Just two words !!

Jai Gurudev !!

Once the Guru addressed a group of devotees and asked them , " What is that you want in your life ? "
The group got quite excited and started probing themselves to tell what they wanted.

The Guru said, " Pls take a bit of paper and write it in just two words and hand it over to me !1"

Everyone got into action at once and presented the folded paper bit with their intials marked on top.

The Guru after a short discourse started seggregating  the chits .

He tore quite a good number of chits into pieces and threw them away. The reason being , the wants were written as a long list of wish , more than two words  . Here , the Guru's words were not followed at the first instant. So, Guru disregarded their demands totally.

Then he classified the next set as category No.1.
In this category , the chits were filled with only wants, which satisfied the Guru's instructions .
But here , all the wants were related to the individual needs like their health, their family health, wealth, kids studies , free from problems etc.

Next came the category No.2 :
Here the Guru selected the chits with the two letter wants , which are pertinent to the spiritual path as "serving the Lotus Feet of God "," Shradhha /Dedication" ," Saboori/patience" etc.
But yet this comes one step lower to the ideal category , Category  No.3 , because this also belongs to the self-centered wants/needs only though of spiritual nature.

And then top most category No.3 , which the Guru selected were only very few , only 3 chits !!
People were astonished at this and were very inquisitive on what  it would have been written in those selected 3 chits.
First thing is ,  these chits were strictly in line with the execution of Guru's instructions without any deviation.This is the prime requirement for one to be in teh spiritual path.
Secondly , the two letter wants or wish were not self centered and purely asked keeping in mind the welfare of the whole world as " All Happy" , 'Love all " ,"Help all " !!

In sanskrit , it is said as "Sarvena SukinoBhavanthu !!" meaning "All people be happy"!!


Hence the Guru concluded as " One who lives for the world , without any selfish nature ,comes under the top most class of people !!"


Which category of people do you come under ?
Can you grade yourself ?!

Down to ashes ...

Jai Gurudev !!
In our school days , we would not have missed the simple , yet an interesting experiment with the Magnifying Glass or a Hand Lens , Paper and the Sunlight .
Though the process simply explains how the intensity of the Sunrays , when focused to one point can bring the fire and burn the paper down to ashes , if we take a deeper insight into it  , it reveals much more than science involved ...rather depicts a beautiful lesson of life !!

In real Life , the same experiment can be translated as follows :

Sun/Sun Light  <=>  Guru /Guru's Grace

Magnifying Glass <=> We

Paper  <=>  Our Bad Karmas

Focusing the lens <=> Bringing one/Aligning  in line with the Guru's path .

Holding the lens for sometime until the paper catches fire <=> Be in the path with Dedication , patience & Pereseverance

Sufferings down to ashes !!

The paper burns down to ashes in this process .
Similarly our sufferings will be burnt down to ashes with the power of Guru combined with one's own efforts !!

So, one can easily get rid off his/her bad karmas and in turn the sufferings of life with the Guru's Grace !!

By the way , have you selected the right Guru in your Life ?

Love & smiles...
