WHY ARE WE ALL HERE?


Dear Friends,

     Before you proceed to read today’s article, please pause for a while and answer my question. What was the most frequently asked question in your life either by you or by your parents, siblings, friends and well - wishers? If your answer is any one of the following:

       1. What is your aim?
       2. What are planning to do?
       3. What do you want to achieve in life?

Then, continue reading further because this article is for the one who contemplates on the prime question in life!

         Questions shape our life because they help us to think deeply. Hence our ancient thinkers encouraged healthy questioning as a process of derivative learning i.e. prashna and pariprashna. All our Upanishads are in the form of answers given by Self Realised Sadgurus to the questions asked by Mature and Learned disciples in pursuit of Absolute Knowledge!

            All of us have made conscious decisions at prime junctures of our life regarding the selection of an academic course, deciding our career path, getting married and having children, building assets etc. Our plans, actions, activities and our entire life style is centred round this single question,    “What do I want do in this life?” We ask this question and build up our external world i.e. our academics, profession, status, relationship so on and so forth. Have these pursuits and the so called achievements given us an everlasting happiness and satisfaction? The answer is a BIG NO! They only left us hungrier, greedier and thirstier for fame and wealth. Why has this happened?

                That sense of dissatisfaction is because we failed to ask our inner self, what we want to do. What is it that will give us eternal happiness and satisfaction? What were we actually born for? When we thus start our introspection our inner spark is ignited. We begin our path of sadhana through contemplation and our ignorance starts slowly fading away!

              This inner search must be carried out by each one of us. We should use our intellect (BUDDHI) as our tool and observe our mind (MANAS). It is a good exercise and a great experience to observe the mind; its mood swings, the attitudes it develops, its fickleness as well its steadfastness, its likes and dislikes etc. It is like sitting alone on a sea shore and watching a roaring sea; the huge waves and wavelets rising and falling as it reaches the shore. People who frequently gaze the vast sky and the mighty ocean feel an inexplicable calmness. This is because the mind opens up and resonates harmoniously with the vastness and abundance of nature. When the mind is open, there is no prejudice, hatred, dislike, anger or frustration. There is a feeling of completeness in our own self and in everything around us. There is only PURE LOVE which is UNCONDITIONAL and is the cause of EVERLASTING SATISFACTION AND BLISSFUL STATE. In this open and accommodating mind (VISALA MANASU) the karmic results and vasanas are absolved. Thus our thoughts become pure and clear and the hrudayam becomes free from all negativities. Such a person who has acquired NIRMALA HRUDAYAM houses the DIVINE ENERGY and radiates this power all around. He or She is the true manifestation of Bhagavathi who is worshipped as HRUDAYASTHA RAVI PRAGYNA TRIKONANTARA DEEPIKA!

                 Our Parama Pujya Guru encapsulates this process of evolution for all the disciples and sadhaks in the following Sookthis.

          NEE MANASUNU VISALAM CHESUKO!
                                                                                     (Sookthi 11)

          NIRMALA HRUDAYAM BHAGAVATHI NILAYAM!
                                                                                      (Sookthi 3)

Let us return to the question from where we started today; why are we all here and what is the purpose of our life?

As a sadhak we understand from our Sri Mata Kamalambika’s sookthis that the mission of our life is to adopt practices that shall give us Visala Manasu and hence develop Nirmala Hrudayam! Thus we shall become Bhagavathi Nilayam, a true JEEVAN MUKTHA irrespective of our walk of life!

                                                             JAI SREE MATA….

  1. Im a great devotee of Ammama garu from past ten years , I saw a lot of miracles of Ammama garu I belive she is the avatar of Matha who came to protect their devotees, Ironically the things which I saw know going in Petam was very much paining situations.Their is a kotari I,e a group of people who surrounding around Ratanabala garu and they are not allowing another devotes to reach Amma , they are not allowing Amma to give her blessings to poor devotes, they are having money power by which they kept Ratnabala garu in their kotari, lot of poor devotes who are coming with a great expectations to get Ratnabala Amma blessing are returning with great pain as they are not allowing to go to Ratnabala Amma garu, even Ratnabala Amma garu to belives only them and always listening only them .Amma Ratnabla garu also deciding a person only by their feedback.Now there is no place for innocent and poor devotes like us , so I came back from their and giving this message to Amma Ratnabla garu, so that Amma Ratnabala garu can came to know the things going around her and take the necessary steps to keep this rich kotari people away , so that all devotees can reach Amma Ratnabala garu.

    Kind request to Amma Ratnabla garu, Amma maymu mee meda chala bakthi tho vunamu, maku mee blessings kavali, daya chaysi mee chutu vuna valanu, dabu kala valanu koni rojulu pakana paytandi amma , maa lanti china bakthulanu karuninchandi, maymu antha dabulayni valamu, maku mee blessings kavali thalli, mee chutu vunna a janala matalu vinakandi , okasari malanti mala badalu kuda vinandi, maa daygara mee meda prema , bhakti vunnai kani dabbu anthalaydu thalli.okasri mee chutu vala gurinchi alochinchandi thalli.mee daya kosam yaduru chusay mee yapati Pada dasulam maymu thalli.karuninchandi thalli
