Articles: Devotion | The Secret of Bliss - Prof. venkata ramanamurty mallajosyula
| |
Well, Mr. Zakir Hussein was telling me one time that he had somebody in Goa that he always invited to come to the Palace when there were visitors.
And this person could stand in a circle of 25 people and he could move his hand like that and create 25 different objects! That is – whatever was in the mind of the person in the circle; this man could create something for them - just exactly like Swami does!
But Dr. Hussein told me that he could do that only after praying to the Goddess Durga! So Swami has said that just like the executive of a big Corporation – the Chief Executive Officer – He does not deal with every sub-manager; or every customer; or every prospective customer. He has heads of departments who take care of production, distribution, advertising and so on.
So Swami said, in the same way, He has a great executive staff! And these Divinities then exist – like Durga, Ganesha and so on. And they have a function – that is they play a part in this world of Maya; this world of make-believe which doesn’t exist really at all – except in our imaginations! But we are striking for the heart of the situation, for the capital! So, what is that capital for us? Swami says: “I am always in Bliss! I never worry about anything! Nothing ever bothers me! I am always in Bliss – Ecstasy!”
Hold on to That Bliss! :
So, who can say that? I don’t see a lot of hands. So, then why are we here? Why do we come to these meetings? Because if we had that fountain of Bliss; that fountain of Beauty; of Love, of Bliss and Ecstasy rising up – always new and ever-fresh as Swami says - then we would be happy; not looking for this or looking for that!
So, at the basis – that is the basis of our worldly existence - we are always looking for something. We want to enjoy, we want to be prosperous, we want to be happy; we want family, we want importance – all these things we want. Because of the vast emptiness that is within us – we want to fill that emptiness.
