== HIS DIVINE SAMKALPA ==
Namaskar,
Just in follow-up to the previous letter, these days with one or another
groupist leader at the fore and with so many groups airing their dirty
laundry all around from one sub-faction to another, it may seem odd that
how will dharma ever be established in our Marga.
However, sincere sadhakas feel assured and know in their heart that by
His fathomless grace Baba has already done all that is needed for the
establishment of eternal peace and righteousness. He has set the
vibration in motion.
With His holy advent itself, Baba has taken the great samkalpa (vow) to
infuse spiritual effulgence and root out all staticity from the mind and
atmosphere of this globe. And one way He grants this is by leading
people along the path of liberation. So when Sadguru accepts anyone as a
disciple, that is a great thing. We are all most blessed to have this
opportunity. Because HIS acceptance of a disciple means taking charge of
that very sadhaka and caring for their welfare with His own hand.
That is why the assurance which Baba has given in the Supreme Command is
in the favour of all His disciples. And what an extraordinary assurance
He has given-- guaranteeing liberation. Each and every Ananda Margii who
is doing 2 times sadhana daily has been blessed with this divine guarantee.
So the role of Sadguru is to guide the disciple from the beginning up to
the last point, liberation & salvation. And not only show the path of
enlightenment but lead the disciple along that path, each and every step.
In true sense, as we know human beings come on this earth to achieve and
realise this one singular goal-- Parama Purus'a. And Parama Purusa
Himself comes in the form of Ta'raka Brahma to lead the way and execute
this task. And that is what was exemplified & accomplished by Lord
Shiva, Lord Krsna, and now with Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji.
So His advent itself is very meaningful; and, at the same time the day
when He started guiding others is also a very significant date. We know
that Ta'raka Brahma comes on this earth to liberate one and all from all
sorts of bondages: physical, psychic and spiritual.
And this is not just a utopian idea; it is the established eternal
truth. Some, those who cannot consider things deeply, they foolishly
think that Baba did not fulfill His vow to establish dharma. And that
before achieving this, He left. They think that is why we are facing
this entire crisis nowadays.
But those who have some sense of deeper understanding, they know that
the functioning of Parama Purusa in the form of Mahasambhuti is always
done according to His liila. That means it is not easy to calculate or
decide what way He is going to play His make His divine play.
For example, what Lord Shiva did, Lord Krsna did not do; He executed His
holy tasks differently. So then what Lord Krsna did, why would Lord
Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji repeat those same things.
The point is that HE follows His own pattern and the pattern of
Mahasambhuti is not whimsical. We may know or we may not know the
reason, but there is some reason. But even with our little
understanding-- with what He has graciously bestowed upon us-- we can
imagine something.
That way we are all reaching to the conclusion that during Lord Shiva's
time Shiva Himself fought directly with the demons. Means He was
physically fighting side by side His devotees against any and all
negative forces. Reason being was that time His devotees were so
primitive in their understanding so they needed Lord Shiva's direct
involvement. Means they were not going to understand anything than
Lord's direct physical help to save them from the hands of demons.
And then during Lord Krsna's time the situation was different. He did
not need to fight physically in the Mahabharata. That is why He
playfully gave His verdict that He will not fight for either side--
Kauravas or Pandavas. So instead Lord Krsna became the charioteer of
Arjuna and psychically HE guided everything.
In actuality then, the Mahabharata victory was nothing but Lord Krsna's
blessing. It was not the magic of Arjuna's bow and arrow. Otherwise
after Mahabharata war, how is it that Arjuna got defeated by those
simple village folk, 'Bhiil' people.
That is why it is understood that the magic was in Lord Krsna's
blessing. Even Lord Krsna did not Himself fight during the Mahabharata era.
And this time Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji did something one step
ahead of Lord Krsna. It seems HE wanted to teach His disciples that
Guru's physical presence is not needed. To execute the task, His
blessing alone is enough. Sadguru's blessing is all-powerful.
Because at time of the Mahabharata era, society was comparatively of
lower standard than today. That is why in Mahabharata Mahasambhuti Krsna
Himself was present during the battle-- to encourage and guide the
people. But this time because the standard of devotees is far higher, so
Baba wants to teach His devotees that His grace alone is enough to
establish the task.
One thing that may need reminding: That when Arjuna was confused, then
Lord Krsna showed him and gave him proof that even before the
Mahabharata war, all the warriors have been killed. Means that was Lord
Krsna's will.
So what Lord Krsna thought in His mind, it took a few days to take shape
on the physical plane. But after taking physical expression, then
everyone saw that dharma got established. But in true sense dharma was
established then and there when Lord Krsna thought.
We all know that the Lord comes here on this earth as Mahasambhuti to
establish dharma. And establishing dharma does not mean physically
fighting with a bow and arrow against demons. Lord Krsna established
dharma by virtue of His samkalpa. Hence human beings could see after the
Mahabharata how dharma was already established before that. Same fashion
Lord Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji has established dharma by His mere wish.
And then according to Him when the work of His physical body is
finished, that has signified that dharma is established-- and in the due
course we will see it physically. And of course all the while He is
still living in each and everyone's heart eternally.
The whole idea being that Baba has fulfilled His samkalpa, and for that
reason dharma is established.
Now the question is: Why is it not visible? And as we all know the
answer is very simple. First thing is that it will take some time to
take physical shape. Second thing is that whatever energy He has given
us He wants to see whether we are utilizing or not.
But above all because He took samkalpa that is why dharma is already
established.
Those who are born pessimists may not like to hear this, but those who
have a little sense understand easily. Because what Baba has promised,
He always fulfills. And when He says that the Lord comes to establish
dharma, then when He came in the form of Mahasambhuti, then certainly
before leaving His physical body He established dharma.
Please read Baba's guideline:
Baba says, "No one need harbour any doubt that Parama Purus'a exists to
promote the well-being of all created beings. If He was not concerned
about the welfare of the living unit beings, He would have remained in
His unqualified stance forever and would not have manifested Himself as
Ta'raka Brahma or Sagun'a Brahma. But He did manifest Himself in this
way and has just showed His intention of promoting the well-being of
humanity. That is why He has given the assurance:"
"Paritra'n'a'ya ..."
"Now what is the necessity for His repeated advent into this world? To
ensure human welfare." (PNS-11, pg 59-60)
Namaskar,
Nagendra
Note 1: Baba's Blessing is always with us:
Baba says, "Utilizing the vibrations created for eternal time by Shrii
Shrii A'nandamurtiji through janusparsha and varabhaya mudras, take
yourself and the entire universe ahead along the path of all-round
welfare. Omn Shanti." (CC-1, 'Concluding Words')

Eternal Guideline
Baba says, "When once you develop your love for Him you are not weak,
not helpless and not alone. The victory is with you. Remember Him and
march ahead - victory will be yours. You have not to be afraid of the
worldly forces. Those who enjoy the highest force of Paramapurus'a are
sure to succeed. Victory will surely be theirs. Victory to you all."
-Jaipur DMC, July 1967 (SS-19, p.24)
