In order to celebrate Diwali. The work of cleaning the house which started for the last two or three days has been completed. Now it’s time to celebrate the festival.
The work of keeping both the house and the mind clean should be continuous. It is very easy. If you pay attention to the cleanliness of the house every day, it will always be clean. Pure thoughts are enough to keep the mind clear. Whether psychologists agree or disagree, the mind is nothing more than a creation of our thoughts. Philosophers say that it has no existence of its own.
Abhyangasnana took place, it was a pleasant experience. New clothes were worn as a sign of newness, new vigor and positive thoughts.
The eye-popping light of firecrackers, the deafening noise, even if we are afraid of this, should be the suppression of the demonic forces within us. . It must be dark to light the lamp and celebrate. If the lamp of knowledge shines, there is no hint of darkness. It is true that there is no darkness but that light must be experienced. There cannot be much difference between knowledge and ignorance if the knowledge is not experienced.
Let us move towards experiencing the light in the full grace of all the Gurus of the Guhananda tradition beginning from Sri Vidyaranya Swami, let us experience walking in the moonlight rain as said in one of the compositions of Sri chi. Udayashankar
Om Asato Maa Sad-Gamaya |
Tamaso Maa Jyotir-Gamaya |
Mrtyor-Maa Amrtam Gamaya |
Om Shaantih Shaantih Shaantih ||.
Let the great spirit hidden in the word Om lead us from the phenomenal world of unreality, to the reality, to the eternal Self.
2: Lead from the darkness of ignorance, to light, to spiritual knowledge
3: From the world of death, material attachment, to the world of immortality, self-realization.
Let the celebration of Diwali continue every day. It is continuous.
Sarvejanah Sukhinobhavantu Samasta Sanmangalani Bhavantu
Om, peace, peace, peace.
