WHAT IS KAMALAMBIKA TATTVAM (Part 2)



This article aims at showing that the life of Mata Kamalambika itself is Her preaching, teaching and tattva and how all the philosophies are embedded in it! Shall we now start our quest…?

“KAMALAMBIKA – THE GITA TATTVA”

Lord Krishna beautifully explains the way in which life should be lived as a gift received from the Almighty and how it should be converted into an offering to the Bhagavan! The Kamalambika tattvam shows how life can be transformed to liberation i.e. from Samsara to Mukthi. Throughout her life Kamalamma garu has demonstrated the strength of character. This is the firm foundation on which the right and balanced attitude towards material and spiritualistic life was developed. Such a poised approach leads one towards the much needed VIVEKA and VAIRAGYA. Thus she was strongly grounded and performed all her actions with complete Awareness without attaching any motive towards the end result. The Gita calls this as Nishkamya Karma. She thus showed the qualities of a Karma yogi by being constantly aware of her inherent divinity and every moment of her life turned to be meditative!

Since her actions were selfless they became an offering to the Almighty. She offered the following favourite flowers to the Lord to obtain His anugraha

Ahimsa prathamam pushpam - Pushpam Indriya nigraha
Sarvabhuta daya pushpam - Kshama pushpam visheshathaha
Jnana pushpam - Tapa pushpam
Shanthi pushpam thathaiva cha - Satyam ashtavidam pushpo
Vishnoho preetikaram bhaveth

Thus she was the true Bhaktha!

Her words and actions reflected the Self. She had transcended the limitations of the body, mind and the intellect. She had identified the self with the Self thus breaking the barrier between jivatma and the paramatma. She continued to exist in that state effortlessly i.e. from the state of a jnani she rose to the level of a Jeevan Muktha! This is seen in the ease with which she handled her life and its issues; the ease with which she could detach from materialistic things and above all the ease with which she could give up her body and merge with the super conscious.

Thus her life itself is a demonstration of the Bhagavad Gita. Hence I humbly submit to you that
 
KAMALAMBIKA TATTVAM IS GITA TATTVAM         

       Keep reflecting on these thoughts until the next part is brought before you.

JAI SREE MATA…….

  1. To detach oneself from worldy desires as preached in Bagvad Gita is not easy to practice .

    But our GURUS who are incarnation of BALA in human form is teaching all of us (bhaktas/sishyas) simple ways to understand and follow GITA SARANSAM .

    1. One among many common things I have noticed right from kamalamma garu to Ratnamakka is they constantly tried to elevate aspring sishyas to liberate from wordly desires and as first step they help us in loukika vishayalu (marriage , chidren,jobs , health , etc ...) unless we are clear from them our mind may not think in the right direction.

    2. Only family our GURUS know is "KAMALAMBIKA KUTUMBAM" which in itself teaches us on how to treat everyone equal and with selflessness.

    In nutshell , to observe them and follow thier instructions as they are teaching righteous way all the time , warning us for our mistakes yet loving us will definitely help us understand the gist of GITA SARAMSAM .
