It has been my
experience that compared to a seeker's keenness to remain in search of a true
spiritual; the latter is still keener to find out a deserving devotee. A
devotee (sadhak) has to be a truly deserving person. Only a person who has
refined his thinking, character and attitudes is a true sadhak. He is not
required to go in search of a Guru. The guide himself appears him, grasps his
hand and shows him the path he has to tread. He lifts across all obstacles.
This is exactly what has happened in my own case. Gurudev visited my house
uninvited to make me a fit instrument for th execution of his divine assignment
and got twenty-four Gayatri Mahapurascaranas performed which culminated in
Purnahuti of Gayatri Yagya of one thousand Kunds. He not only introduced to me
but also made me intimate with about one lakh of persons who formed the nucleus
of Gayatri mission and have given me their wholehearted cooperation in the
stupendous task of spiritual reawakening of the masses.
During our
first meeting, Gurudev had directed me to come to the Himalayas four times, for
periods of about one year each, after completing twenty-four Mahapurascaranas
of Gayatri.
The first
reason for calling me to the Himalayas was to ascenrtain that my soul did not
feel lonely in the wilderness and solitude of nature without the company of
living-beings and without the requisite living facilities. Secondly, it was to
ascertain whether I could establish spiritual identity and intimacy with wild
and ferocious animals living there. Thirdly, I was to be introduced to the
Risis through whose divine pursuits (tapasya) the Uttarkhand region of
Himalayas is so surcharged with spiritual energy that it is called Devatma. These
Risis, when they were in their physical bodies, had infused divinity in the
environment and had individually played significant and distinct roles in
infusing and activating specific qualities of spiritual light and power in the
human psyche. Such life-transforming tasks are impossible of accomplishment by
solitary human effort without adequate resources, public cooperation and
support.
Gurudev's
silent direction to me was to apply the available spiritual energy placed at my
disposal for the simultaneous fulfillment of three objectives: to understand
how the Risis of old, in their embodied forms, had utilized the spiritual
energies at their disposal for solving the problems of their times by squishing
the evil forced and by establishing the supremacy of divine way of life; to
understand and comprehend the dimensions of the God-assigned task to be
accomplished through me as an instrument; and to draw appropriate lessons from
teh successes and failures of those divine warriors (Risis) in their battles
against the forced of darkness; and to devise effective strategies against the
final assault of these evil forces, with the aim of banishing them from the
human scene once for all. He told me that the purpose of my pilgrimage to the
Himalayas was to spiritually charge and equips myself for this epoch-changing
task.
