RELIGION AND REALIZATION BY DIAMOND PICKED UP IN THE STREET

RELIGION  AND  REALIZATION

MARCH --1882     

Place : -  Temple  of  Dakshineswar

(Henceforth  Shri  Ramkrishna  will be  spoken  of  as

Thakur” when required  as  it is so  done in the  Gospel )

(369)                    “He who attains the Absolute cannot come back

                        to give out the revelation”.

The man in whose body the Primal Power is transformed into God, the Absolute, gets Sthitha Samadhi and collapse.

(370)                    “A man becomes speechless, keeps on making the sound of

                       ‘ha, ha, ha, ha’; and takes a jump into the pit”.

Speechless---means the state of Samadhi---transforming into God.

Ha, ha, ha, ha---means being transformed into sound Nada and going above it by penetration . It is very easily tested. If a man has got this state then let you speak about the penetration of sound (Nada-Ved) before him, then at once his head will keep on swinging backward and forward on his neck. It is manifestation of the Supreme Cult over the body. No sooner it will be heard it will express itself in its special aspect on the body.

Take a jump into the pit---means changed into God, the Absolute. The human body collapses.

(371)                 “Jarabharat (a sage) and Dattatreya (a sage) got transformed into

                     Brahma but could not come down to give information about him”.

Though Jarabharta and Dattatreya got their mind eradicated of the egoism and transformed into the Supreme Knowledge, yet ego-consciousness in toto was not extinct. So there was no Descent (avataran) in them and they could not relate about the sportive forms of God (Bhagawat) in the body like Sukdeva.

(372)                         “Not only mind will be effaced but ego-consciousness will be extinct also”.

To attain the Supreme Knowledge both mind and ego-consciousness will annihilate and then it will take place in full measure. It means Sthitha Samadhi and nothing can be spoken of it, Only Avatars can come out in Descent.

(373)           “Sukdeva saw and touched the ocean of Brahma”

Sukdeva had only a teste of the Supreme Knowledge.

(374)            “He did not get down and dive into it”.

He did not get Shitha Samadhi.

(375)             “Sukdeva had to speak out the sportive forms of

                 God as seen and realized by him to Parikshit”.

Parikshit (a mythological king of the holy epic Mahabharata)---means a tried one. He is Parikshit who has got God-the-preceptor in him, i.e, when there is emanation of God in the body. It establishes for certain that he is the fit man to learn and realize (though partially) the sportive forms of God; but, of course, it is merely and simply God’s grace.
