When
I started on this journey at 11 years of age, I had not the slightest inkling
that I would see God one day in the present life, leave apart the question of
how many years from now But one thing I was very sure of was that if God was to
give a darshan to someone on Mother earth it was to be me. Inherently I knew that
purity of Mind was to be maintained at all costs.
Even
as a child I could see people cheating God when they were alone in the surroundings
of their house or the office. When I used to challenge such people of their untruthfulness
they used to counter that no one had seen them making a theft. I inherently knew
that these people were fooling their own self for God was everywhere and he takes
care of all our actions be they good or bad.
One had to be hundred percent truthful if he ever was to realize self in the present
life ... a very difficult task as in the day-to-day mundane affairs of life sometimes
even unknowingly one may be untruthful and unless one knows the right path of
repenting how to absolve self out of the situation. There had been a King Vikramaditya
in India in the past who was famous for his truthfulness. I followed his path
of Tapasya (Prayer) ... and one-day I knew I had become an absolutely truthful
human being.
Still,
there was no God to be seen anywhere. I subsequently Realized that apart from
being truthful one had to practice Celibacy to its extreme end. Not involving
one self in sexual activities of any nature alone is not sufficient. The complete
definition of Celibacy meant not involving one self in sexual activities physically
but even mentally. It was very difficult for me to find out what was the meaning
of mental sexual activities. In spite of all my best efforts in controlling sexual
desires I was getting nowhere.
Sweet dreams is a common occurrence. I had to somehow over come it. I realized
as everyone on Mother Earth were sons and daughters of God, I had to treat every
lady on Mother earth either as my mother, sister or daughter. I deeply prayed
to God day and night and ultimately even night sweet dreams also ended. I practiced
physical and mental control on sexual activities for a continuous period of twelve
years and lo shortly after that I had a darshan of God. Subsequently I Realized
God in its entirety.
Mahavira,
Gautama Buddha all practiced Celibacy for a continuous period of twelve years
before they realized their self. To practice absolute Celibacy as narrated above
is perhaps a difficult task but there is nothing on Mother Earth which cannot
be achieved.
I have narrated above most important features over which a human being has to
have absolute control before he can Realize self. Because of the inborn nature
of the Mother to take care of its offspring, it is even more difficult for woman
folk to achieve Self Realization. In the history of India only two women achieved
this status - one was Gargi and other Maitreyi. Gargi was a highly accomplished
intellectual women and Maitreyi was the wise wife of sage Yagnavalkya - a knower
of Brahman, the Almighty Creator of the cosmos. Sage Yagnavalkya is the author
of Brihadarankya Upanishad - a highly intellectual sacred text.
May
God bless us all.
