LOVE AND OBSESSION: DR SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAR

Disciple: Master! You are beyond time and space. You have blessed me with your presence in my life, the obsession of “well being” of all and finally; the way to achieve it; viz. NAMASMARAN.

Today; I am convinced that my duty is; to practice and universalize NAMASMARAN. I am also certain; that NAMASMARAN is the way to the ultimate goal of immortality; and all other aims, objectives, religions and ideologies; converge in this goal.

In fact; I am aware of the fact that you are doing everything; and from yet another plane of consciousness; everything is already within you!

But whereas I feel extremely confident and victorious about this; I feel down and weak as and when I am drowned painfully in the whirlpool of my pettiness, superficiality; and my physical, instinctual, emotional and intellectual perceptions, preoccupations, motivations and urges ( i.e. my metabolic, endocrine, autonomic and central nervous activities), which are beyond my conscious and voluntary control.

In short I am miserably devoid of the fulfilling experience of your divine presence and your immortal love; in my life.

Hence; I am still empty, fearful, shaky and restless at personal level.

Master! I want the experience of your gracious presence and your sublime love. I want the ecstasy of being submerged in the ambrosia of NAMASMARAN.

How to ascend from this painful stage of obsession (with admixture of pettiness and cowardice) to the stage of objective, creative and benevolent love?

Guru: Obviously; being totally submerged in NAMA; is a final and most sublime stage. But everyone reaches that stage; through different activities and experiences. Keep going on; and in the process of “your ascent”; your fear, weakness and diffidence will disappear; and your obsession would get transformed into the objective, creative and benevolent love!
