A glimpse into my life after completing a surgery in the operating theatre at 2:30 AM on January 19th, 2024:
Most people who know me via social media think I have a great gala life. And I’m broadcasting to them from some pedestal of a sort. I invite them to come and spend 24 hours with me and they will know how hard I have to work and how I balance my work life as a full time doctor ( with erratic time schedules and long working hours) with my intense saadhna schedules ranging into 4-5 hours each day along with my services to fellowmen through my unique offerings of pujas, consultations, books and a vast collection of spiritual and healing offerings. I also have a family and social commitments towards my peer groups. The idea here is to live fully and without any bias for any one way of life. Living moment to moment without any cult to follow or some archetype to become identified with.
It may be incomprehensible for anyone including me how can it be possible to live so many lives in a single day and yet remain silent, calm, forgiving, loving and balanced attending to one thing at a time. It’s only grace that has enabled me to live so wholesomely and fully commit to this lifetime of completion and satiety.
I am neither a spiritual guru with a million dollar organization and nor a world acclaimed author or a highly paid medical proffesional. With my limited finances, resources and loads of hard work and devotion to the source , I have come this far and simply working very hard at grassroot level in allmost all areas of my life.
My own saadhna, life and spiritual work is rooted in simple and minimalistic living and there is nothing that I’m really aiming at. No moksha, no siddhi and no metaphysical spiritual entertainment. I believe in a common source point and the self as the awakened Godhead. No forms entice me or annoy me. As i age, I realize that satiety and joy are simple pleasures of life which come to one when grace wills it. And yet, I see people around me day and night chasing for some magical unloading of their karmic baggage, nonsensical kundalini or other spiritual entertainment and some hoopla about their lives being somewhat more holier than other beings on this planet. I have no intention or time or interest to judge anyone as each one is climbing their ladders in their own time and in their own speed. I am walking alone on my path and under God’s direct guidance and light. I seek no one and I reject no one. In their journeys, I am a neutral mirror just helping them go deeper and faster through their karmic journey completions.
I have people entering and exiting my life with their fiery devotions that fade out as quickly as they flare. There is hardly an opportunity to speak to anyone in person or pamper their egoes while one is attending to serve on so many fronts. And with the limited patience to trust and wait, people leave me before they even know traces of who I am or what do I have to offer for them. Not that it matters to me as I’m very focussed on walking my path and simply doing my best for each life I can touch. Results have no bearing on my serving. I simply do what needs to be done in each role play and leave it behind. This is how I embody the walking my path on my Guru Shree Bhagwan Ramana Maharishi ‘s teachings of detached compassion.
So before you are unkind to anyone for any of your reasons and before you judge them on your benchmarks, be sure to atleast be patient and wait in a pause to observe their lives closely.
Be kind.
