Vaatsalya Bhaavbharitah Dayaa Daakshinnya Tanmayah
Matriroopah Guruh Saakshaat Saangatyah Brahmasanvidah
All the powers of the universe have originated from the Guru element. The
supreme element which controls and manipulates these powers is the Guru.
Every sadhak wishes to attain success in Mahavidhya sadhanas in his life so that he could achieve material and spiritual progress with the help of divine powers. Presented here is the experience of a sadhak in relation to the supreme Mahavidhyas.
When the newborn opens its eyes and gets upon its tottering feet, the first creature it saw is its mother who suckles it and satiates its first hunger. It gets filled with joy in being caressed by its mother and slowly it starts to realize that till it had its mother close by, no one could harm it. This fills it with courage and confidence, and it starts to gamble about and play with carefreeness and is soon lost in the joys of childhood.
Basic nature of a human too is childlike. When someone calls him son, a person is overjoyed, no matter how old he is. In this joy is the hidden desire to get motherly love and to feel secure in its warmth. A child feels very safe and comfortable in the embrace of its mother. He has no care in the world and having played its pranks, it rushes to the protective arms of its mother and in them he becomes carefree, for he knows that his mother is ever there to protect him.
A sadhak or a disciple too feels the same way. A disciple tried to think of the divine, the Guru, the Supreme as his mother. The Guru element or Brahma has no particular form and it manifest in one’s life in the very form in which one imagines it to be. A child hides within every sadhak and this encourages him to meditate on the Supreme in the form of a mother. And when the Supreme was contemplated upon in a motherly form, the Goddess Jagadamba manifested in Her various forms including the ten Mahavidhyas. These ten divine Goddesses, the Mahavidhyas, namely Kali, Bagla, Tara, Chhinnamasta, Tripur Bhairavi, Bhuvaneshwari, Kamala, Matangi , Dhoomavati and Tripur Sundari are but powers of the Guru element which controls the entire universe and its activities. I was not very much aware of the significance of the Guru in one’s life, but I sure experienced the presence of the Supreme power. I liked to think of God only in the form of a loving mother, and I always felt that the supreme power that had created this universe followed me like a shadow, ever protecting me in an invisible form. This is why I always felt attracted towards hymns of Mother Goddess and the ten Mahavidhyas.
I had spent several years roaming about it in the jungles, and I had also achieved a certain level of success in sadhanas, but I had heard that the highest stage of accomplishment in sadhanas and in spiritualism is entering into Siddhaashram. But reaching Siddhaashram is not so easy, this I knew very well. All activities of universe are subtly controlled from this divine land. One can enter into Siddhaashram only through the grace of some Yogi who has free access to this divine land. And the chief prerequisites to gaining entry into this land of the enlightened is accomplishment of Mahavidhya sadhanas.
Hence from the very beginning, I had been on lookout for some great soul who would be a master of Mahavidhyas. Leading the life of an ascetic, I reached Varanasi and stayed for some days on the banks of river Ganga. There I met a sage who was very lean but had a divine radiance on his face. Near the bank were other huts occupied by other sages, but I was very much attracted by this ascetic who would remain in his hut day long.
He would emerge from his hut early in the morning for a dip in the river and would then return. I didn’t know what he ate or drank and I was sure that his hut was empty. One day gathering courage, I entered his hut to find him seated in the lotus position deep in Samadhi with divine peace reflecting on his features. I had been watching him for the past several days, but I had not even been able to know his name. For two hours, I sat there waiting.
When he finally opened his eyes he said, “Come son! I had been waiting for you.” He spoke as if he had known me for ages, while the fact was that I was meeting him for the very first time. The word son had instant effect on me and I got up and fell on his feet. He raised me up and said, “Come, you are brother to me, perhaps you are not aware of this fact.” He told me that in past life, both of us had been disciples of the same Guru and had been together for several years. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that I too had a Guru. Till now, I had been wandering about without any guidance in my life. Now hearing the word Guru, I was filled with joy and was lost in the divine ecstasy.
I stayed for a few days with the sage whose name was Chaitanyanand and who was a devotee of Mother Kali. He had achieved unparalleled success in the field of Kali Tantra sadhanas. It was great news for me because I was eager to learn Mahavidhya sadhanas. But till then I had not achieved any success due to lack of proper guidance. Chaitenyanand with full affection explained me some very secret facts related to Kali sadhana and revealed to me how She ever protected him like a caring mother.
Having stayed with him for a few days, I left for the jungles of Garhwal in whose natural beauty I was soon lost in a divine peace like one experience in the lap of one’s mother. At a place having crossed a dense jungle, I came upon a lake beside which stood an ancient temple. The rocks of the temple had grown dark and black due to the effect of nature.
Inside the temple was a three-foot-tall idol made of black stone. Layers of dust piled on it had left it beyond recognition. Curiosity compelled me to clean it and from beneath the mounds of earth emerged a beautiful statue of Mother Kali. The Goddess had a skull in one hand, a bowl in the other and stood on a dead body. Suddenly, I remembered the days spent with Swami Chaitanyanand and the knowledge he had imparted to me, and I decided to stay there and accomplish Kali sadhana. However, success was not so easy to achieve. Two months passed and four times I had to face failure. I sat down once again for sadhana deciding to succeed or leave the place forever if I failed yet again.
It was the final day of sadhana. I was feeling very frustrated. Sometimes I felt angry at Chaitnyanan d doubting if his sadhana was authentic and sometimes I felt like cursing myself for having undertaken a futile venture. As I made the last oblation, I still had some hope kindling in my heart but I was unsuccessful one again. I got up in frustration and came out of temple and started to stare blankly at the stars above.
The words of Chaitnyanand echoed in my mind. He had said that I had a Guru. But if he was there and if he had been my Guru even in past lives, why was he not manifesting himself and helping me out. I was silently cursing myself. When a child is hungry, it cries out loud and sometimes the mother willfully doesn’t pay attention to it just to enjoy its crying. Then the child gets furious and I felt the same way. I was not angry at Chaitnyanand or Goddess Kali but at my Guru….Why was he not helping me out?
In the very dark night, the air was so peaceful that the noise of crickets coming from the jungle was loud and clear. But I was hardly aware of all this, because a storm was rising in my mind and I was out of my senses. In utter anger and frustration, I decided to throw the idol of the Goddess into the water.
As the idol touched the water, there was an explosion and a blinding light as if a bomb had exploded. From the light a feminine form emerged and as I watched with bated breath, the same figure that had been the idol came to life. It was Kali with a skull in one hand, a bowl in the other and a string of skulls around her neck. About fifty feet in front of me Her divine form hovered the water surface. The explosions and fireworks continued even as one by one the forms of Goddess emerged from the form of Goddess Kali, till all the ten Mahavidhyas had manifested in full celestial glory. All had their hands raised in blessing and I could not believe my eyes that I was beholding such a divine spectacle.
For the past two months, I had been trying to manifest a divine image in my mind, but I had not been able to fully concentrate in mediation. And today, when I had become utterly frustrated and had thrown the idol into lake, the divine Mother had suddenly let her compassion flow and presented herself in all Her ten divine forms. The anger that I had felt earlier had transformed into love and devotion for my Guru and in this surge of emotions, tears of gratitude flowed out of my eyes. Now, I had just one more wish – to have a glimpse of my Guru. How did he look like? Where was he? With these thoughts I started crying.
And then suddenly there was another explosion over the water surface. I had been so lost in the thoughts of my Guru that I had forgotten about the Goddesses. I looked towards the lake once again. Above the ten Goddesses, a bluish white globe of light had appeared. It seemed to pull all the ten forms towards itself and as I watched in surprise, one by one all the Mahavidhyas merged into this light. Then the light started to grow and expanded till it had assumed a human form. And then suddenly stood before me a diving Yogi with beautiful eyes, a prominent forehead, huge chest, strong arms, long flowing tresses and a tall fair complexioned physique, quite as if manliness had manifested in totality in the form of a Yogi.
Beholding his divine form a joy surged through my body. A voice rang in my ears – “This is your Guru of several past lives. He is the heart and soul of the divine land of Siddhaashram, Paramhans Swami Nikhileshwaraananda Ji. Even the Gods remain eager to have his glimpse.”
Tears filled my eyes and perhaps having read my mind, He walked over the water surface to where I stood. Without losing a moment, I fell on His feet and grasping them cried my heart out. Till now, there had been no exchange of words between us. I did feel however that He had been my Guru in the past several lives. And now that He was before me I didn’t want him to leave. And then I felt His fingers touch my spinal cord sending wave after wave of spiritual ecstasy flowing through my body. His affection showered upon me for several moments.
Then caressing my head, He pulled me up and said, “Why do you cry, son? You wished for success in Mahavidhya sadhanas. Are you happy now?” The same divine supreme force that I used to meditate upon in the form of a mother in my early days and which I always felt close to me had now manifested in the form of Revered SadGurudev and I was delighted to be touched and caressed by Him. I had now realized that all the ten Mahavidhyas were present in His very form – something which I had myself witnessed only a few moments back when the ten Mahavidhyas had before my eyes disappeared one by one in Him.
My joy knew no bounds and my tears were unstoppable. SadGurudev asked me to regain my composure and to sit in the lotus position. I did and closed my eyes only to feel the gentle touch of His thumb on my Third Eye. My body grew light and I was in deep trance.
When I finally emerged from the Samadhi, the sun rays were playfully dancing on the surface of the pond outside. I felt greatly uplifted remembering the past night’s experiences. More than that, I was delighted to have met my spiritual master who assimilated the essence of all the divine mothers in Himself. And in that wonderful state of divine ecstasy, I could hear my heart singing out –
Brahmaand Swarooma Nikhilah Nikhileshwarah.
Taneiv Samanupreetaah DashVidhyaa Sukeertitaa.
