Dear devotees,
Welcome to the Buddha Purnima edition of our e-magazine. As discussed in previous editions of our magazine, our Master Sri Sri Babathakur has told us that the Divine, I-Reality has revealed the Science of Oneness/Knowledge of Oneness through Him. He has imparted this revealed Science to all of mankind, in a manner that can be comprehended easily in today’s age. This Knowledge has been imparted through various lectures and revealed bhajans. The Master has emphasized that we should all be listening to these lectures and bhajans repeatedly and contemplating on the words regularly, so that the inner meaning of these messages can be revealed to us.
Not only did he preach this unique science, but he also repeatedly gave us live examples of how this Science can be applied in everyday life. He had established his own identity with the Supreme Divine Being and looked at everything in life from the plane of Consciousness. Here is a perfect example of how He viewed life’s events from the plane of Consciousness.
On February 5, 1988, Sri Sri Babathakur was getting ready to leave Delhi for Chandigarh. He was supposed to undergo cataract surgery at Chandigarh. A devotee asked Him when he was expected to return to Delhi. Our Master replied that it was very difficult for him to predict the return date since everything is in the hands of the Divine. He further explained that the Divine will be playing through the eye doctor for the procedure. On the other hand, the Divine will be the role of the patient through the Master. Both the patient and the doctors were instruments in the hand of the Divine. The owner of both the patient and doctor was that One Divine, the I-Reality. The procedure would be carried out by the Divine through the doctor, and His recovery would also happen by the Divine’s Grace. Hence, although there was a proposal for Him to return to Delhi within a few days after the surgery, the exact plan was completely in the hands of the Divine. Hence, it was not possible for Him to predict a date for his return to Delhi.
Such a lucid elaboration illustrates how our Master had perfectly merged his individual identity with the Divine! Can we all attempt to reach a similar state as we encounter our life events?
Joy Babathakur! Joy Babathakur! Joy Babathakur!
