6-10-2000, Brindavan dham
|
The disciples of a great mahatma in Brindavan, Naiveli Saranji came to visit Nanna in the ashram. Nanna spoke in hindi in a state of deep bhava. They listened to him with tears flowing in their eyes. It was evident that the bhava touched them. After listening for one and half hours they paid their respects to him and left. We all gathered near his divine feet. Babu, Nanna's devotee living in Guntur ashram asked Nanna about his previous experiences.
|
'Nanna you said that when Ramesh Baba came near you, you could not speak for one hour as you were in Radhabhava..'
|
|
"
For two hours! Yes, I could not speak anything. The bhava touched them also.
"
|
'You could not speak for two hours!'
|
|
"
Yes, not even a word.
"
|
'You said even Krishna could not attain Radha bhava.'
|
|
"
It is not like that. They remain in Radha bhava for days together.
"
|
'Does it not remain permanently?'
|
|
"
No, it is momentary, that too for very few people; maybe one in million.
"
|
'Are they rasikas?'
|
|
"
Yes. They are known as rasika, Rasika Siromani etc. The bhava touches the person around them. Today also the bhava touched these people.
"
|
'They were weeping as they listened to you.'
|
|
"
Yes.
"
|
'One of them was weeping continuously. It was clear that Mother's bhava touched you throughout your talk.'
|
|
"
Yes, otherwise they will not weep.
"
|
'That is the indication.'
|
'No wonder he remarked that guruji is partial towards Radhaji.'
|
'Mother came near you without you calling Her'
|
|
"
yes, Mother came.
"
|
Nanna you said that you wanted to invite Mother but She came on Her own.'
|
|
"
I was very weak at that time.
"
|
'But your voice was very forceful'
|
Nanna enquired about the devotees who visited him.
|
They reside in Brindavan in Naiveli Saranji's ashram near Rasmandal. He sent them to meet you. Nanna, did you feel salkhi bhava when you saw them.
|
|
"
I need not see them. I could feel the touch from the moment they entered the ashram.
"
|
'That means they are mahatmas.'
|
|
"
Being in that ashram, they have the power of receiving. Otherwise you cannot receive the bhava. Naiveli Sranji is an austere brahmachari and a mahatma.
"
|
Nanna sensed their bhava even without seeing them. We remained silent for time.
|
|
"
Biharji temple is one of the important temples in Brindavan. The chief priest, head of 20-30 priests called some priests all the way from Puri in Orissa to see me. Puri is also a sacred place next to Brindavan. That is why Chaitanys stayed there. The priests came near me and said 'we are surprised that somebody from Andhra has such Radha bhava. We never saw anything like this in or life.
"
|
Suddenly Nanna told us about what Radhaji told him.
|
|
"
Radhamahalaxmi said that I must complete some works here. Till they are done, Mother will not take me near Her.
"
|
'Nanna, is it completion of books?'
|
|
"
Books are nothing, that is a small job.
"
|
'Are there bigger jobs that you must do?'
|
|
"
I don't know, maybe Tata and Birla will come here some day. Dalmis came with his wife. His daughter is expected sometime.
"
|
'We are unable to imagine what can be more important than books and functions.'
|
|
"
Something higher; I don't know what it is.
"
|
Again Nanna reverted back to the subject of Naiveli Saranji's visit.
|
|
"
How long were they here?
"
|
'One and half hours. You spoke continuously all that time.'
|
|
"
Ah!
"
|
'They were very happy. One of them was weeping. As your eyes were spilling tears, he also wept. He was saying 'wonderful; he is in Radha bhava!'
|
|
"
Radhe Radhe
"
|
Anjani amma said that Nanna wished to hear them say Radhe Radhe and all of them chanted Her name happily.
|
|
"
By uttering Radhe Radhe, you will get solace.
"
|
'They chanted with utmost delight. They will narrate this incident to Naiveli Saranji. He may come to see you.'
|
|
"
Did you see him before?
"
|
'Nanna, we saw him in Radha Vallabh temple. Seeing him in your presence here is different.'
|
|
"
Once we had Rasa. They came and garlanded me. They were weeping. They dressed the girl in dhoti and brought her near me.
"
|
'Nanna, nobody speaks about Radhika bhava..'
|
|
"
Nobody will even say it.
"
|
Today, Nanna went into Radha bhava every now and then. The Radha bhava which is not easy for even Krishna to attain glows in Nanna naturally. He said 'the bhava touches the persons around you.' He categorically stated that 'Mother came' while he spoke to them. Naiveli Saranji, a mahatma in Brindavan declared that Nanna is pure.
|
Radhaji retained our Nanna on earth because there is a higher work than writing books 'Brindavaneswari Radha Devi'. Nanna said 'I do not know what it is.' The recent astonishing incidents indicate how Nanna is executing Sri Radha rasa plans in an all pervading manner.
|
The words spoken by Nanna on 6.10.2000 and 28.8.2001 in Brindavan may be different but the listeners on both occasions were the Vrajavasis!
|
|
27.8.01, Brindavan dham
|
Nanna's ashram was glowing with the glow of Radha rasa and Nanna was resplendent in that glow. Nanna spoke to the vrajavasis in a state of bhava.
|
|
"
Radhaji is the Goddess of Para who is worshipped by Sri Krishna himself. Japa, tapa or yagnas - no ritual can be equal to Radha dhyana. When Vishwamitra was doing penance, he saw a divine beauty, Menaka. He became attracted to her, wed her and had a daughter, Shakuntala. That is how he fell from his penance.

As long as you have outward vision, you can never attain God. One day, you must go inwards. This is an important lesson. The BhagawadGita narrates that LordBrahma searched all the worlds for his father but of no avail. Finally he heard a divine voice from the sky 'tapa tapa' then he did penance and saw his father. Though you put in maximum human efforts, you cannot move higherwithout penance.
"
|
|
"
Jeeva is saddled with the karmas of his previous births. Karma accompanies him every moment. Nobody can predict how karma will be in the next moment. That is why many people are misled. Zakir Hussain, the President of India is the perfect example to explain karma. Even before he could sip the tea from the cup in his hand, he died. The doctors rushed to him and declared 'Zakir Hussain, President of India died.' Just like the shadow that follows every object, karma follows every living being. Though he had a cup of tea in his hand, his karma did not allow him to drink it. That is our life!
"
|
|
"
The world is like that. We have no peace and calmness in such a world. Jeeva must have the darshan of God. Without God's grace, he cannot attain moksha. So God's grace is indeed inevitable!
"
|
|
"
Swami Vivekananda wrote a letter to his brother monk Tureeyananda wherein he says 'you can go to the market and buy vegetables by paying money. It is foolishness to believe that in the same way you can attain God's grace by doing japa and tapa. That is not possible. Without divine grace, all your penance is of no use. This is my message.'
"

God must grant us his grace. Someone equal to him and powerful must bless us; otherwise we cannot go higher. The blessings of ordinary jeevas will not take us near God. Only when somebody equal to God showers his grace on us, we can attain God. That is the only way. As far as we know Krishna is the greatest God. The Bhagawata says 'Krishnena aradhyadheti Radha' . She is Radha because She is worshipped by Krishna. No human being can give Her a name. If Krishna is worshipping Radha, then who is more powerful? Krishna gives the answer. Chaitanya tells everybody to follow Krishna's words from Chaitanya Charitamrutham and Adileela. 'I am Sacchidananda (sat chit ananda) and a complete incarnation. I provide happiness to everyone in all the three worlds. But there is nobody who can give me happiness in the there worlds. Only Radha alone can give me happiness'. Radhaji is so great! That is why Krishna worships Her.
"
|
|
"
Such a Radhaji told me 'you can attain Me through dhyana.' I willtell you about this dhyana yoga. It is not easy for everybody to get this dhyana yoga. You came here because Mother sent you. You did not come on your own. She gave you this opportunity.
"
|
'Very true. We came here only by Her grace.'
|
|
"
When you chant any mantra, it has words, hence associated with prakrithi. There is no mantra without form and sound. When both are presentit means we are linked with the world. That is how Jada Bharatha fell. So mantra is not enough. It will take us only a little way towards Mother. Beyond that, only dhyana yoga prevails. When Arjuna asked Krishna 'what is the way for me to have direct darshan of God?' he replied 'ahyanena athmani pasyanthe' Only dhyana; not japa or tapa!
"
|
|
"
Radhaji publicly declared 'I will be attained only through dhyana' . Since mantra is linked with name and form, it will pull you down. They are relatedto prakrithi. Anything linked to the world will not aloow you to go higher. You will remain here only. Mother is not associated with worldly words. Dhyana yoga is beyond name and form. She says 'I am all pervading. I am presnt in millions of worlds.' When you contemplate on such an all pervading Mother, your mind will become a thoughtless mind. The all pervading Mother is present in each and everybody's heart and about an inch inside your forehead. That is Radha bhava. The life force of every being is Radha. Many Vedic scriptures mention that our life force is present here, between the eyebrows. When man dies, his life leaves from here because Mother is present within. The life will not leave without having Her darshan. Without Her permission, your life force will the body and go to higher worlds.

Mother showed me Markandeya's life in my dhyana and told me to follow it. He did two things: he forgot the world totally and he held to Lord Shiva firmly. 'Lord Shiva will see the world. I will not.' Mother wants us also to live like that. 'You must hold Me; then you don't need anything else. Remain passive towards the world. If you are passive I will take care of everything.' Krishna also did the same. That means God will not interfere in your worldly matters. He will be passive. Though Arjuna is very dear to him Krishna was passive when Arjuna's son, Abhimanyu died. We must be passive towards the world and yearn for oneness with Mother. We must completely surrender to Mother and be passive towards the world. This is a prerequisite for sadhana. Mother said 'if you are truly passive towards the world and surrender to Me, I will take care of your worldly karmas. That is myresposibility; you are not connected anymore.'
"
|
|
"
We must be passive towards the world. When wesurrender to Mother, She will not be passive. She will take our life in Her hands and perform our activities. My life is a glaring example to the whole world.
"
|
Nanna narrated the divine incident of 1953 when Mother prolonged his lifespan.
|
|
"
The physical body remains for sometime and then perishes. Family, wife,children, body..all are shortlived. You weep when the body vanishes. This body and its physical ailments ate the result of your previous karmas. 'Karmanam bhogatho nasyeth' Jeeva cries as he suffers due to his karmas. This world is the cause of so many sorrows and miseries.Only the truly wise ones will yearn to go to higher worlds near God. Why do you want God? For your peace and calmness. Is it easy to attain such a God? It is very difficult.
"
|
|
"
It is not so easy to reach God. There are so many hurdles in the way. Great sages like Brahma and Saubhari also faced defeat. Rajoguna is inviked and expressed as desire and anger. That is the cause of his fall. This path is very difficult. When you surrender to Radhaji, the embodiment of ecstatic power, desire will not come near you.One who wants to reach the highest dham must do dhyana on the Sovereign Radhaji , Lord Krishna's deity in dhyana.
"
|
The vrajavasis were immensely happy with Nanna's talk. They prayed with folded hands and left. He clearly explained how jeeva is followed by the karmas of his previous births. We must do dhyana on the highest deity to dissolve our karmas. Saying 'when Krishna worships radha, who is more powerful?, he stated Radhaji's supremacy. Life will not leave the body without paying respects to Radhaji, such is Her importance!
|
If we are passive towards the world and yearn for oneness with Mother, She will take care of us. Nanna's life is a glaring example to the whole world.
