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 )
291) “This
path of devotion
is the easiest
one”.
True devotion is brought by a man
long with his birth as a heritage . Its spontaneity manifests itself.
292) “It
is an ‘ego’
of a child”
It is ‘I’ in the state of
Paramhansa. It comes after liberation and it speaks only the glory of ‘Thou’.
293) “Yes, ‘servant—I’, or ‘I am a servant to
God’ ‘I am a devotee---this type of egoism;
and it not
faulty; on the contrary,
it aids one
to attain God
in him.”
It is ‘I’ in the course of
transformation of life—power. It is creating devotion and love of God in one’s
body. It is not ‘I’ in the liberated state or ‘I’ to speak the glory of ‘thou’.
294) “If
after attainment of God there
remains a ‘servant—I’, or a devotee—I’,
then that
‘I’, cannot do
the least injury
to others”.
This ‘I’ does not contain the
least animality in him. It is a vidine ‘I’ and it is only to witness God’s
sportive forms and to speak out the joy and beatitudeness of their display.
295) “A
touch of the
philosopher’s stone changes
an iron
sword into
a golden one
and it cannot injure
others”.
Firstly, it needs to be merged in
no-ego-consciousness and to come down in Descent in the knowledge of ‘thou’ and
also in the display of incarnation of God. Then there remains not a single iota
of animality in the body. It becomes a holy receptacle for expressions and
manifestations of God as seen in the photograph of Thakur in standing posture
being transformed into God (Samadhi). It is called turning of the iron sword
into a golden one.
296) “A
boy is not
fastened to either of
these three qualities :
(1)
Sattva—Goodness; (2)
Rajas—activity and (3)
Tamas—inertia”
297) “A
child has got no caste distinction,
nor hatred, nor
Sense of purity
or impurity in
anything”.
In Paramhansa state, the eight
knots located in the waist are cut asunder. It is so seen to happen within the
body. If you attain Paramhansa state, your God-the-preceptor will come to you
but with some
defect in his body and give you a very
sharp weapon. With that weapon you cut asunder the eight knots of
nerves (Astapash) in the waist. At the time you feel a physical sensation in
your waist as
well as in the cerebrum and it is clearly and distinctly understood that some
changes are taking place in the brain.
298) “There
are some who after being transformed into God,
Keep the keep the
‘devotee-1’ or ‘servant-1 and live thereon”
It is Descent.
299) “Even after
attainment of God,
there remains
but a
meager tinge of
‘I’
This is that ‘I’ who sees the
display and ecstatic sports of manikin form (Manus Ratan) of God in him known
as Avatar or incarnation of God.
