Jai Sriman Narayana !!
Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!
Oh! Foolish mortal, recite the
glorious names of Lord Govinda and worship him, learning the rules of Grammar
/Vykarana will not save you at the time of death. Its absolute foolishness to crave for the
accumulation of wealth, immerse your mind into the knowledge about the reality
and be satisfied with what may come as fruit of past Karma. Oh! Mortal, do not forget that the lustful
features of a women, her bosom and navel are just a matter of flesh; don’t get
drowned in to the world of illusion.
Life is uncertain like droplets in the lotus leaf, understand that the
whole world is a prey to grief, sorrows, illnesses and ego. An individual will be treated with respect
and love as long he provides wealth to the family, but once he is afflicted
with the illnesses due to old age no one will be there to show kindness to
him. When a person is alive, the whole
family members will enquire about his welfare, but when his soul depart from
the body, even his wife will be scared to stand beside him and will be treated
as mere corpse. The childhood days are
wrapped up with the playful acts, adulthood days are lost in the lustful
thought about the women, old age passes with various thoughts, it’s pathetic to
know that hardly anyone immerse in the thought of ‘Brahmam’. This Samsara/material life is bizarre, who is
your wife? Who is your son? Who are you? Where did you com from? Ponder over
these ultimate truths. The detachment
comes from the association of Satsang/people who have Sathvik thoughts;
detachment causes freedom from delusion which leads to inner peace, ultimately
into the state of liberation. When will
you understand the fact that the lust lingers on until the time of
youthfulness; a waterless lake has no use, a wealth less person will have no
relatives of his own in this world, Oh! Mortal, understand the ultimate truth
and free from your illusion, do not praise about your wealth or friends or your
youth, it is perishable in any moment.
The time plays its major role, just like the daylight into darkness,
dawn into dusk, winter into spring, but the storm of our desires never
ends. The above enthralling twelve
verses were advised to a grammarian by Srimad Shankara Bhagavadpada.
Oh! Foolish mortal, why are you
so absorbed in the thought of accumulation of wealth? Is there no one to guide you? There is only one thing that protects you in
the three worlds from the ocean of material world/world of Samsara, get
yourself into the ferry of association with virtuous people /Satsang. Some people may wander with matted hair
locks, some with clean shaven head and some are clothed in saffron colored attire
or various colors to earn livelihood, some people never understand the truth
and remain fools. The charm and strength
leaves the body of an old person and evident mark of old age appears like head
becomes bald, toothless and physically weak to move etc.. But his attachment
towards the material life remains the same and yearns for fruitless desires. Though an individual warm up in the night
hours to protect from the cold, consumes food given as alms and relax under the
shadow of the tree, but his heart is always a miserable puppet in the hands of
passion. An unintelligent cannot attain
salvation even at the end of hundredth of births, though he performs holy bath
in the river Ganga, undergo fasting and perform abundance of charities without
the knowledge of Brahmam. An ascetic who
sleeps in a shrine or under the shadow of tree, who attired in deer skin and
sleeps on the ground embracing mother Earth, who gave up all comforts and
luxuries and lives a life of austere would never fail to attain contentment. The knower of Brahma attains extreme bliss whether
he is a yogi or bhogi, attached or detached. An individual who recite a little portion of
Gita, or consume a drop of water from the holy river Ganga and venerate Lord
Murari once in life time will have no fear of Lord Yama. Oh! Lord Murari, I have been born again and
again in the mother’s womb and have gone through the endless hardships in the
ocean of Samsara, alleviate my miseries with your boundless compassion. There
is no scarcity of attire for a monk, who lives in the constant communion of God,
abandon the vice and virtues, immersed in the self-knowledge and supreme
knowledge remains unblemished and enjoys the bliss; he remains like an innocent
child in a state of ecstasy. Who am I?
Where did I come from? Who are my parents? Ponder over the above and it will
seem to be insignificant, eventually gives up the world as an idle dream. Lord Vishnu dwells in all our hearts, anger
and impatience are groundless; all we need to have tranquility to attain the
status of Lord Vishnu. Do not waste your
energy on winning your love or fighting against friends and foe or children and
relatives, witness the supreme soul in everyone and give up the feeling of
duality. The fools are forbidden to have
the self-realization, ultimately cast into hell and suffer the hellish
tortures, so give up lust, greed, anger and infatuation, ponder over your real
nature. Engage yourself in reciting
Gita, meditate upon Lord Sripathi and chant his thousands of glorious names take
pleasure in the association of noble and holy and distribute your wealth to
poor and needy. The one who succumb to
lust and gratifying sensual pleasures would leave his body as a prey to
illnesses. Though the death brings an
end to life, the Karma/fruit of action continues. Remember, wealth is not everything, it’s not
the joy or welfare, a wealthy person frights the threat from his own son, this
is how the wealth plays its role in life.
Practice the custom of Pranayama and Prathyahara with extreme care,
remain unaffected by the evil influences, aware of the real and the fleeting
things, control your mind and recite the glorious names of Lord. Meditate upon the lotus feet of your
Preceptor; you will be free from the world of material life instantly and
experience the presence of Lord in your heart with controlled mind and
disciplined senses. Thus a silly
grammarian who had narrow vision was purified and attained the light of wisdom
by the disciple of Adishankara. Oh! Mortal,
don’t be a fool, venerate Lord Govinda and recite his glorious names, it is the
only solution to cross the ocean of material world.
