Divinity

THE LORD’S NAME
The name is a verbal expression of the conception of the Supreme Being, who is known by different names and forms, in different climes and times. The supreme is infinite but as it is not always possible for the common manto conceive of what is beyond the perception of the finite mind, this infinite truth is symbolised as forms, symbols or objects that vary according to each one’s respective tendencies or modes of perception.

Though in the initial stage there is difference and distinction among the various names and their associated objects, ultimately, when the habit of repetition of the name is formed and the divine consciousness is kept ever awake, then there remains no distinction between the name and the associated idea or object. The intuitive knowledge of the supreme reveals itself in the name itself - for the basis of all names and forms is the one primal being who manifests himself under different names and forms, as different faiths and tendencies, as different sects and races, in different times and places.

Sloka 33 from Dancing with Siva
What Is the Process of Reincarnation?
Reincarnation, punarjanma, is the natural process of birth, death and rebirth. At death we drop off the physical body and continue evolving in the inner worlds in our subtle bodies, until we again enter into birth. Aum.

Bhashya
Through the ages, reincarnation has been the great consoling element within Hinduism, eliminating the fear of death, explaining why one person is born a genius and another an idiot. We are not the body in which we live but the immortal soul which inhabits many bodies in its evolutionary journey through samsara. After death, we continue to exist in unseen worlds, enjoying or suffering the harvest of earthly deeds until it comes time for yet another physical birth. Because certain karmas can be resolved only in the physical world, we must enter another physical body to continue our evolution. After soaring into the causal plane, we enter a new womb. Subsequently the old manomaya kosha is slowly sloughed off and a new one created. The actions set in motion in previous lives form the tendencies and conditions of the next. Reincarnation ceases when karma is resolved, God is realized and moksha attained. The Vedas say, “After death, the soul goes to the next world bearing in mind the subtle impressions of its deeds, and after reaping their harvest returns again to this world of action. Thus, he who has desires continues subject to rebirth.” Aum Namah Sivaya.

The Divine relationship,spiritual and mystical, is difficult for the simple human mind to grasp, becouse God, infinite in nature, cannot even logically be comprehended by the finite process of reasoning mind. Vedas says that Krishna is the most sweetest Bhagavan, The One who is beyond everything,The One who is Great and makes others Great……than who is Radha……. Krishna is Rasaraja becouse of Radha Mahabhava…and Radha is Mahabhava becouse of Krishna….how to explane Mahabhava, tatwa of Sri Radha…all the scriptures which are writen cant describe that Divine Relationship…..Suprem Transcendental Rasa cannot be explained,it is not a subject of knowledge, but subject to be relished, it is eternal, unbroken, inconceivable and full of nectar…All the time Radha and Krishna remain in Goloka, they never leave Vrindavan. Knowledge about Radharani is the most mistical knowledge in Krishna Consiousness, Radha is like a water, always fresh…her Spirit fire flows with immense coolness, like a river, like Ganga….water always flows from a higher to a lower level, it is called a stream (dhara). When the letters of the word dhara are reversed, the word becomes Radha. That stream which flows from below upwards is called radhagati. It falls down to be able to experiance rising up, dive deep without fear to be able to swim upwards to reaches the origin of spiritual experiance of being Radha Herself. So,Radha is not jivatma, but the One who lower, reduced herself to be jivatma, playing that she is small…she lets beeing brought down to be small….to bring you to a higher level……she shows the way of lifting up above the third eye toward your inner world and Loka of Brahman, Loka of Absolute exsistence, Absolute I-AM. When we go above the third eye, our consciousness becomes free from all mental ups and downs.The word Krish means crash, and Na means not. So,Radha goes up to disolve in Krishna to experiance her absolute being-ness, in other words Radha Krishna Satsang in her consiousness. When Radha met Krishna, her eyes opened Instantly, the whole Universe was transformed into Rasa-Lila, the dance of Absolute God….living Grace fully, her all life become her Heaven. The demigods,demons,sages,kings,manus,humans and philosophers serve God,but they canot see His lotus Omnipresent feet and lotus face, but Radha, looking at Krishna, got not just that, she become Krishna Herself, so how can she be hurt and broken, when such Love and Strenght are held in her arms, Radha is not afraid of anything when Krishna is always by her side, she is not afraid od going in hell if she has to, she doesnt care if she will be shamed or cursed if she has to do what she has to do, she ask for nothing….what can she ask or wish when she have All in Him…she possess only her Love and Freedom, and at the end her love lift her up where she belong. When she distributes the bliss of Maharas to others, all atmosphere is parfumed like in Vrindavan….full moon Golok…if you have true devotional heart, by her grace Golok atmosphere will be easyly established where ever you go. Radha is integral energy, the Mother of all other Mothers, her devotional service is not just activity of material world…since she is not jivatma, her service is Omnipresent. Sri Krishna and Sri Radha never go out of Vrindavana, what you see is just a reflection for the sake of lila and quiding the others. So,who can really knows Radha……only when you transcend the mind you can grasp her Infinity….only Krishna knows Radha, and only Radha knows Krishna, only unlimited mind can recognize and live Omnipresent as the consciousness of the Divine…..OM AND PREM…JAI KRISHNAJI………….
