Sri Narada Bhakthisuthram – Pradhamodhyaya: || 46 - 55
Chapter – 4 – Sri Narada Bhakthisuthram
Who wins over the powerful Maya of that
supreme Lord? The Jeeva who discarded the association of Dhurjjana, engaged in
the relentless service to Mahathma, selfless Jeeva win over the Maya
effortlessly. The Jeeva who lives in an
isolated place, leaving all the interest in the worldly matters and bondage,
and free from the Triguna/Rajasik, Sathvik, and Thamasik, and abandoned the Yoga
and Kshema wins over the powerful Maya. Yoga is the practice to achieve the
serenity of mind and supreme knowledge of Bhramam, and the Kshema is the effort
to safeguard the virtues within. The Jeeva who abandon Karmaphala and Karma and
immerses in the meditation of supreme Bhramam resides as soul, win over the Maya
of supreme Lord. Nirdhvandha is the
sense of lack of duality, the Jeeva who is free from Sukha/happiness and Dhukha/grief,
Labha/gain and Nashta/loss, Sheetha/cold, and Ushna/heat. The Jeeva who discard the Vedic duties and responsibilities,
and immerses in the Eshwaraprema/the supreme Bhramam resides as a soul in living
beings, he easily crosses the unfathomable ocean of Maya of the supreme Lord, and
moreover, he guides the people in his association to get freed from the Maya. Bhakti is indescribable, she is Parama Prema
Swaroopa. The Jeeva who lacks speech cannot explain the state of
happiness, in the same manner, the Jeeva who has experienced
Paramapremaswaroopa Bhakti remains speechless. The Paramapremaswaroopa Bhakti can be
achieved with great effort and the grace of that supreme Lord, and it shines
only in the well qualified Jeeva. The
Paramapremaswaroopa Bhakti is free from
attributes, and desires, it keeps growing relentlessly, it is eternal and subtle,
it can be experienced and its beyond words.
The Parabhakthi is free from Triguna/ Sathva is Gnana and virtues, Rajas
is full of Raga/desire, lust, greed, jealousy, and Thamas is ignorance. The Jeeva who has attained the
Paramapremaswaroopa Bhakti envisions the all-pervasive Bhramam/oneness-in All,
constantly contemplates and meditate upon that supreme Lord, speaks only about
that supreme Bhrmamam and pondering over it.
