Bhuvneshvari: The Queen of the Universe

* Bhuvaneshvari is the Queen or ruler (feminine, Ishvari) of the universe or realm of beings (Bhuvana). She is the Divine Mother as the Queen of all the worlds. All the universe is her body and all beings are ornaments on her infinite being. She carries all worlds as a flowering of her own Self-nature. She is thus related to Sundari and to Rajarajeshvari, the supreme Lady of the Universe.



* The Goddess represents space. Space is the Mother or Matrix in which all creatures come into being. She is the field in which all things grow. She is the receptive spirit who gives space to allow all things their place and function. She is the cosmic womb that gives birth to all worlds. As space, Bhuvaneshvari is complementary to Kali who is time; they are the two main faces of the Goddess as both the infinite and the eternal. Bhuvaneshvari creates the stage on which Kali performs her dance of life and death. At the stage Bhuvaneshvari is also the witness, the observer and the enjoyer of the dance.


* As Kali creates events in time, so Bhuvaneshvari creates objects in space. All events are merely episodes in the Devine Mother Kali who is time. All places are merely phases of the dance of the Divine Mother Bhuvaneshvari who is space. The Goddess is the place, the field, the matrix in which we act to manifest the Gods. Knowing her as the ground on which we stand and the reality which pervades us, we gain the capacity (Shakti) to accomplish the highest actions, which are the practice of Yoga. Returning to her passive presence, we ourselves become the field in which the Gods, the cosmic powers, can be born and assume their roles in the cosmic creative unfoldment.


* Bhuvaneshvari is the cosmos (Bhuvana) personified as Goddess. Worshipping her promotes a cosmic vision and absolves us from the narrowness of opinion and belief. She helps us go beyond all identifications with creed, class, race, sex, nation and religion, to a universal understanding. She gives us world vision, a global understanding, and a sense of the infinite.


* As the power that measures out the universe, Bhuvaneshvari is called Maya, which also means illusion. When things are measured we are in their limited forms and forget the underlying unitary space in which they appear. This is how illusion arises. All manifest forms are merely waves in the infinite space of the Divine Mother. We must learn to see the space of the Mother, which is the embrace of consciousness, in all apparent objects of world, and no longer take their diverse forms as reality.


* As Kali is the power of Action (kriya-shakti) and Sundari is the power of Knowledge (jnana-shakti), Bhuvaneshvari is the power of Love (iccha-shakti). Love creates space and provides freedom. It does not limit or try to posses, which is the action of selfish desire. Yet the space of love is not an empty or unfriendly space, it is a space that nurtures and gives room to grow and flower. If love does not give space, it is not a Divine Love.


* Bhuvaneshvari has a form like Sundari, whom she resembles in many ways, which reveals her beneficent nature. She has the colour of the rising sun, with the crescent moon on her head, with four hands and three eyes. She holds in two hands the noose and the goad. With her other two hands she gives the gestures that grant boons and dispel fears.

She is the Eerswari for all 14 Lokas.

Athalam
Vithalam
Suthalam
Thalaathalam
Mahaathalam
Rasaathalam
Paathaalam These are the 7 Lokas below our Earth (Bhoomi)

Bhoomi

Bhuvar Lokam
Soovar Lokam
Mahaa Lokam
Jano Lokam
Tapo Lokam
Satya Lokam. These are the 6 Lokas above the Earth.

Over all 14 Lokas, & she rules all these lokams as per her wish.

Also Bhuvanam means Bhoomi, Fire , Water, etc…. So Bhuvaneswari is she who is the leader or who made all these things.


JAI MA BHAUVANESHWARI

Ved Vani

* The events of life flow down the stream that took its course at your birth (Prarabdha). Accept them without regret, take heed not to force the hand of Fate.

* Do the duties of life as penance, leaving the rest to the Guide - who will protect you from all the imbalance of prosperity and adversity.

* Live consciously in God with according ableness. The events come owing to the urges that initiated this life; meet them with resignation to the Guide, do your bit to the best of your ability, but give away neither to elation nor to depression.

* Man can have no control over the events of life till he shall have completely paid all his dues brought forward from the previous life.

* The word 'Samsara' means the world of becomings that obscures and eclipses Being, and consists of joys and sorrows that appear on the surface of the mind (only to disappear).

* Do not distress yourself : whatever God does must necessarily contribute to your good.

* He that adores the Lord with single-minded devotion does verily make a clean sweep of all the accumulated debris of life.

* Marriage, birth and death are all fated events, Fate being the arbiter in respect of each and every item of one's position in life. The time and the shape of things to be are all predetermined. Be in all circumstances vigilant with a view to submitting yourself to the God of Truth Who gives all the awards through the mechanism of Destiny that does never fail.

* The heart burns night and day in the fire of the faggot of desire. Have trust in God. All that rise and set are unreal. Know what is real and what unreal and you shall have done with your delusion.

* God and His Name are one - not different. To live by the Name is to abide in God. By uninterrupted abidance therein one is able to cross the bounds of dualistic knowledge and attain Peace and bliss.

* It is egoism in man that splits the unity of Being into kinsmen and strangers. In truth, no body in the world is other than your Self.

* No body can escape the consequences of his actions as determined by Fate, which should therefore be accepted as a matter of course. A man reaps as he has sown.

* Adore the God of Truth. He will always sustain and protect you. As fate wills it so are people encumbered by the experiences of life, which now give satisfaction, now discontent.

* Don't worry. Always try to live in submission to God. The world is a delusion which disappears as soon as the destined time series terminates. It is wrong to distress yourself over what fate has in store for you.

* Always bear with what fate offers you in the right spirit. So will you have God's mercy.

* Be content with your portion in life as meted out by Nature. Thiswise can you release yourself from destiny and attain eternal Truth.

* If you want to serve the God of Truth you should do so by living in submission to Him, bearing patiently with the forces of the natural instincts which rule creaturely existence with delusive egoism and cognate effects.

* In the three worlds that be, there is none but Truth that is your very own, Truth which is Providence as well as Dispensation.

* Man is bound by the ties not of wedlock but of cravings. Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva and the other Gods lived a married life. As the Elders say, as you have sown so do you reap.

* All maladies are curved if you constantly recite the Holy Name with absolute trust in Him.

* This world of Ignorance revolve on the wheels of Time. No one can interface with its course.

* Everyman would teach others; few can teach themselves.

* Always recite the Name ; to do so is single minded devotion. The acquired dispositions become a spent force only through patience : everything in its time. The Name alone is Truth ; naught else but the Name endures in this world.

* Fate is the arbiter for all and duly gives unto each what falls due to him. It is no good giving thought to that. None can escape the concatination of the destined events of his life.

* People are subject to birth and death owing to their allegiance to Appearance and cannot get release therefrom except by being devoted to Reality. But then Fate bears fruit everywhere.

* All people are ruled in this world by Destiny. Whatever Fate offers you at whatever hours, must needs be to your good.

* Marriage takes place just when it must, according to the decree of Providence, which cannot be interfered with.

* If you keep doing your immediate duties here on earth with surrender to God and goodwill to all, He will forever be looking to your good by removing all your wants and granting you absolute repose in Him.

* Accept the predestined portion of your life with cheerfulness.

* Fate alone, and nothing else, is responsible for all that befalls you. In this human predicament patience is your only friend.

* The world is like a dream where people are embogged by their illusory ego-sense, and wherefrom they are saved by single-minded devotion to the Lord.

* If you act with resignation to God, the forces of destiny will go over your head.

* Man looks before and after owing to having been enmeshed in the net of egoistic becomings.

* Always recite the Holy Name : the Name, alone, will remove all your wants and make your mind still.

* Do what you would with calm conviction. Indecision leads you nowhere. Stick to one thing, whatever be your choice.

* Find fault with none, be angry with none. Be always alive to your duty of serving the Lord. The servants of the Lord are always free.

* The world is a magic show, run by the cosmic forces which admit of no individual freedom of action.

* This world of Ignorance revolves on the wheels of Time. No one can interfere with its course.

* Do not worry over God's dispensations. Truth alone is the ultimate Goal. Forsake It not, but exert yourself always to follow Its course.

* Patience is a priceless possession. Exert yourself always to nourish it.

A FOOL`S REALIZATION..............

When I first started this blog I was under the impression that I created it ........

But I was so so wrong .

After the last post " A FEW THOUGHT " I tried to pen down so many thoughts , but trust me I couldnt , I just couldn`t. Every time I wrote a paragraph , I felt something is missing , and that some thing is not " just " a small thing , it was like a resistive force . Trust me I couldnt publish those posts , I didnt understand what was missing and why was I not satisfied with what ever i was writing ...

Then I realized that its not me who started or created this blog . Its Gurudev himself . Without HIS wish I couldn`t have written a single word on this blog .
What ever is there on this blog wouldnt have been possible with out HIS divine blessing and his wishes . I am just a puppet of my BELOVED SHRI GURUDEV , and wish to stay like this till the end of existence of my soul on the lotus feet of my MAHA VISHNU ..

A BOOK ON THAKUR

There is a book written by Rahini kumar mazundar , named as "Sri guru raam thakur "

I am in absolute love with this book ,
When ever i get time i read it.
The most amazing fact is whenever I read this book I get new information about my beloved GURUDEV , i don`t know how ?
Apart from getting new information there is a specific reason why i love it . I have never in my life felt so connected to a book or scripture like this . For me its a living being , a live source to connect to the all mighty Himself .
When ever I read it I feel I am there in each and every page and experiencing the same incidents along with the other guru bhai and bhaginis .
I picturaize the same situations and feel the same joy as if things are actually happening in front of my eyes .
I find joy in this , I feel blissful and connected to the lord himself .

It might sound crazy to some people but this really happens ,
I must have read the whole book over 10 times , still do the same things over and over again
I can actually see Gurudev sitting on the bed of rohini kumars house and the things that are going around ..
Rohini kumar gives me the eyes though which i see my lord , my lord in a human form ....
I laugh , I get emotional with tears in my eyes as the emotions flow out .
The book is like a gate way for me to experience the divine leela of my lord .
I would recommend people to read this book , and am sure that you people will also feel the same as you go through the pages .

That house in Muzaffarpur became a Leela bhumi for my gurudev . As you go through the book you will understand that gurudev was not only THE GURU for that family but was also a father and a friend as well .He used to take care of all the small things in the house like the main member of the family .So many important messages are conveyed through that book . You might also get some of questions answered .

It also has information about few great personalities like Charag Ali Bhai and Purnananda Brahmachari , and most important Thakur jis presonal information and HIS experience with HIS GURUMAHARAJ ,

Hope you feel the same experiences or better then this and please feel free to share the emotions ........
