 Chapter IX - BASES OF GURU-BHAKTI - 8.97 to 96 & 9. 101 to 108.
Swami Sivananda.

8. In Tune with Guru -97 to 100

97. It is easier for a camel to enter the eye of a needle; but, lo, it is far more difficult for one without the Grace of Guru to enter the Kingdom of God.

98. Just as water, when added to milk, loses its own identity, becoming one with the milk, so too should the true disciple utterly surrender himself unto the Guru and be one with him

99. Just as small streams and rivers by joining the great and sacred Ganga come to be regarded as sacred and worshipped, too, and finally reach the goal—the ocean, so shall the true disciple by seeking refuge at the Feet of Guru and by becoming one with him come to attain the Bliss Everlasting.

100. Does the child learn to speak or to walk in a single day? Does it not need long association with the parents and proper attention and the interest, which alone can teach the child to speak or to walk? So, too, the true and sincere disciple should remain and stay with the Guru for sufficiently long time, rendering him all service, by Than, and Man, all the while evincing true and genuine attention and interest to learn the Supreme Vidya. Thus alone will he attain the great Knowledge..... not otherwise.

9. The Bestower of All Boons   :- 101 to 108.

101. Verily like Kalpaka Vriksha, like Kamadhenu, like Chintamani, verily as these grant the boon that is desired by its seeker, so too does the Guru grant the seeker whatever he desires... Therefore shall the true disciple seek but the Great Knowledge of the Upanishads to attain Moksha.

102. Just as the baby, when it totters around, tries to walk all by its own, now falling down and again getting up, needs and calls for the help of its mother, the disciple also in the earlier stages of his Sadhana needs and should seek the guidance of the Merciful Guru.

103. Like the child too, the true disciple should have intense desire for liberation (Mumukshutva) and express this in all possible manner, only that he may be helped by his Guru in the realisation of this desire. This desire may well be called the effort and the Guru’s Merciful Help is the grace like the kindness of the helping mother.

104. Two things are necessary for a beautifully-finished Idol or an Image... one is a perfect, faultless good piece of marble; the second is the expert Sculptor. The piece of marble should but unconditionally remain in the hands of the Sculptor in order to be carved and chiselled into the fine Image... So too, the disciple has but to cleanse himself, purify himself, and make himself a perfectly faultless piece of marble and placing himself under the expert guidance of his Master, allow to be carved out and chiselled into the Image of God.

105. Just as with the rising of the Sun the entire darkness is at once dispelled, so does the Avidya and Avarana in the mind of the disciple get dispelled immediately with the descent of his Guru’s Grace.

106. Just as one who is burnt by the scorching rays of the sun finds immense relief and happiness in the cool shades of trees and just is after a hot day, one finds immense happiness in the cool moonlight, so does one burnt by the scorching rays of Samsara and all athirst for peace find the desired peace and happiness at the Feet of a Brahma-Nishtha Guru.

107. Just as the ‘Chataka’ bird, after waiting for long, quenches its thirst only by drop of rain-water, so should the true disciple serve his Guru and await the ‘Word of Upadesha’ that shall quench all his agonies and free him for ever.

108. The Grace of Brahmanishtha Guru will, verily burn all the sins of the one that seeks such a Merciful Guru whatever may be the worth of this one even as the fire, by its very nature, burns away whatever that comes within its fold and within its aura.

To be continued ...

NOTE :-

1. Present day education too much materialistic;

2. University degrees, PhD-s are useless, until and unless, no cordial relationship between teacher and student is absent;

3. Universities are fertile lands for the birth of rogues, in the name of students, and their foolish political organizations;

4. All Bharatiya political parties are rubbish, no sense of honesty, duty, character and responsibility towards the Nation and her People;

5. Children and students must be very careful, and concentrate in their education only;

6. The standard of teachers is very poor, no qualities for this noble profession, just selfish livelihood, no sense of duty towards student character development;

7. The education ministry is handled by party politics basis, and degraded by political disturbances.

8. Spiritual education is a must at schools and Universities;

9. Should be Bharatiya Sanatana Dharmam only;

10. Teaching of Scriptures and Srimad Bhagavad geeta is very essential;

11. Politics should be kept away, as Bharatiya texts deal with the mind and values, Muslims and Christians should follow;

12. Bharatiya texts never talk about Hinduism, or God, or any prophet; so Secularism is not disturbed.ULTIMATELY SECULARISM, DOES NOT MEAN TO PROHIBIT SANATANA DHARMAM OTHERWISE KNOWN AS HINDUISM

13. Secularism means all inclusive, free to practice any religion of one's preference, but without any prejudice;

14. SO THERE IS NO HARM IN FOLLOWING SANATANA DHARMAM, BECAUSE THE WHOLE WORLD EXISTS IN SANATANA DHARMAM  ONLY, NO QUESTION FROM ANY CORNER ....
