In search of shiv tatva - शिव तत्त्व की प्रतीक्षा मैं

Where is shiv ?
It is said that the entire universe is materialisation of one shiv sankalp (thought). But what happened to the creator after the world was created on his behest. Did he disappear? Did he hide? Is he dormant?

शिव कहाँ हैं? कैसे हैं ? कौन हैं?
कहते हैं यह सृस्टि एक शिव संकल्प का परिणाम है. लेकिन फिर वह कहाँ चले गए या फिर यहीं कहीं हैं, छुपे बैठे हैं।

It is said that

  1. it is in everything but its not everything. 
  2. it can be found only via Guru (an enlightened master). You dont have direct access to shiva principle.
  3. only grace can bring it forth to you, no effort or manipulation can influence its decision to reveal
  4. it can come in  a form which is dear to you
शिव तत्त्व के बारे मैं कुछ मान्यताएं हैं , जैसी की 
  1. सब उसमें है पर वह सब मैं नहीं हैं 
  2. वह सिर्फ गुरु की सानिध्य मैं मिलते हैं।  
  3. सिर्फ कृपा से जागृत होते हैं , अकारण , अकरम से 
  4. अक्सर तुम्हारे पूजनीय रूप मैं प्रकट भी हो सकते हैं 

So what do you do in the meantime?
Grace is indeterminate, beyond demand.
Its beyond time and reason and action. Its not a fruit of well defined actions or merits gathered via good deeds or any other logical culmination of effort. 


तब आप क्या करोगे तब तक.
कुछ कहतें हैं के संकल्प करो और अपने प्रिये जान को समर्पित कर दो।  फिर धैर्ये से प्रतीक्षा करो।

Wait.
प्रतीक्षा
Infinite patience.
असीम धैर्य

You also cannot remain idle. You need to be either in love or in action or in both.
लेकिन चुप चाप बैठ भी नहीं सकते।  कुछ तो कर्म करना पड़ेंगे और कुछ भक्ति मैं नयन बंद करने होंगे.

Grace has some linkages to devotion to divine and also to good deeds for the betterment of society. Though, there is no clarity of the link.
कृपा का भक्ति और कर्म से कुछ सम्बन्ध है।  लेकिन कैसे या कैसा मुझे पता नहीं।

You cannot ask it to present itself because then it will be a limited expression of the form, limited by the laws of nature. Even light is limited expression of energy.
अगर आप उसे रूप मैं ढूढ़ते हैं तो वह सिमित है. हर रूप प्रकृति के नियमोें मैं बंधा हैं. अगर वह रौशनी हैं तो वह भी ऊर्जा का सिमित अभिव्यक्ति है.

It is said to be an experience. The experience happens by itself when self decides and finds it appropriate to express.
शिव एक अनुभव हैं. वह अपने आप, अपने संकल्प से प्रकट होते हैं।

What have you done so far in finding your God?

Do think its important to know who the primordial father/creator is/was? Or, can you happily ignore its presence and continue dragging around?
क्या आप उत्सुक नहीं होते हो उससे मिलने के लिए जिसने आपको बनाया है?
या फिर इस माया जाल के चक्रव्यू मैं मस्त हो।

Shivani, Brahmakumaries and Aastha channel

She comes twice on TV from 7:10 PM to 7:40 PM and 10:30 to 11:00 PM on Aastha channel. The spiritual channel story in India is on same lines as that of Aaj Tak , which was run by local ads before the big boys put ads on them. Today Shivani, a Brahmakumari mentioned that 99% of the cause of anger and frustration is elsewhere, it is not in the spur of the moment, when you hurt somebody or get hurt by somebody. Instead of reacting instantaneously , or pestering the reaction in the mind post the incident till eternity , can you wonder "Why is that soul so angry, what is bothering her? I am sure there is something more than what she has told me now?". The chain of thoughts that emerge lead you to compassion, releases love vibrations into the air. Love has a very subtle medium to reach out. You cannot yell and throw around love and claim that you are helping somebody by your love. You have to surrender to love and let love take over. You cannot correct the world. You can onl...

A neat way to pay property tax online if you have a property in bangalore. As launch offer BBMP is not charging extra on credit card payment. You can go to http://218.248.41.198/ and choose form IV or V depending on whether there has been any change in your property from last year. You will need Application number from assessment year 2008-09. The number on top right corner of pink form. If you are lucky to have saved it to your files. Not the white receipt.

Success is exchange of energy

The definition of success is very elusive. It means different things in different phases of life to different people. When I was in school and college it was to pass somehow. When I was in 12th it was to get into engineering somehow. When I was in job it was to make more money anyhow. When you were in marriage it was to demand happiness and feel proud in pronouncing to yourself that every act of a frustrating job was for the sake of family and their well being. I was focusing on doing. I was focusing on achievement. So whenever I reflected back in life I always felt less. I could have been an IITian, I could not crack CAT. I could not join an organization during their early stock offer days. I could not go to US and earn in dollars. I simply missed doing too many things.  Now I feel lack of achievement. Now I feel lack of doing. Did I miss out on something while I was undergoing all this doing? Why was I nervous all this while? Why did one achievement led to other? Why...
