THE FOLLOWING OBSERVATIONS MADE BY SRI ACHARYA E.BHARADWAJA HAD A DEEP IMPACT ON ME .THE SAME SENTIMENTS SEEMED TO RESONATE INSIDE ME WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT HIS FACE DURING THE DHOOP AARTHI
Was he overwhelmed with compassion for the devotees who came to pay homage,adore and worship him
Or in that mood was he oblivious of his seperate existence,his gaze fixed on the Divine MYSTERY,the ONE OMNIPRESENT SPIRIT?
or WAS IT A LOOK OF RECOGNITION OF THAT ANCIENT SPIRIT,OF HIS
CONTACT WITH THOSE TEEMING CROWDS THAT HAD CONTACTED HIM THROUGH THEIR PREVIOUS COUNTLESS LIVES?And ,was that smile pregnant with his joy of their future possibility of reaching the spiritual summit? Or was he lost in ceaseless contemplation of the one spirit,in his at-one-ment?Or does it signify the PEACE THAT PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING?Or is there a possibility that at a HIGHER level of consciosness all these could co-exist without one interrupting the other?
THIS LAST THOUGHT HE SAYS FLASHED WITH A PARTICULAR INTENSITY AND HIS SPIRIT LEAPT FORTH TO COMPREHEND HOW HE WAS VIEWING ALL EXISTENCE
IS THIS UNIVERSE OF MYRIAD FORMS AN IMAGE PROJECTED IN HIS CONSCIOUSNESS?AND AM I,THEN ,TOO,A THOUGHT IN HIS MIND AND ALL THESE MY THOUGHTS PART OF IT? HE FURTHER GOES ON TO SAY
I AM AWARE HOW ABSURD THESE WORDS MUST LOOK TO ANYONE.
But how ELSE can they be when i verbalise that WHICH CANNOT BE EXPRESSED?
