The Divine Attractive Magnetic Power

 

The whole world is permeated with attraction of unvisible divine energy, by

Swami generalised as magnetic power (energy).*

The entire earth is permeated by magnetic power. All the living beings and

objects that are present on this earth also have this magnetic power. The

rivers that flow, the wind that blows, the flowers that blossom, etc.,

everything is endowed with magnetic power what is all-pervasive.

If you question a boy as to what a magnet is, he will say that it has the

power to attract iron filings. However, if you put the same question to a

businessman, he will say that money is the magnet. For a husband, wife is the

magnet and for a wife, husband is the magnet. Thus, we see that everything in

the creation has magnetic power latent in it. Green pasture attracts the

cow. Flower attracts the honeybee. Mother attracts the child. There is power of

attraction between human beings, birds, animals, and even insects. There are

innumerable unseen powers present in man. They are known as transcendental

powers (atheeta shakti). Scientists know that energy, which is infinite and

unfathomable, can be neither created nor destroyed. Since time immemorial,

human being has been investigating the nature of this energy.

Since thousands of devotees gather here, our mandir is suffused with

magnetic power. The allpervasive magnetic power shines with added brilliance in

this mandir. Where there is Divinity, there is attraction power. The name and

form of Bhagawan has attracted you here. No one is making any effort to

recognise this divine power of attraction. The divine power of attraction

cannot be described; it can attract anything. One does not acquire any special

powers from temples. What one gets is only the reflection of one’s own magnetic

power. People visit various pilgrimage centres like Tirupati, Haridwar,

Rishikesh, etc. The power that is present in pilgrimage centres is only due to

the power of devotion and faith that pilgrims carry in their hearts.

 

God is also magnetic power personified. God has infinite attraction power.

However, God acts according to the situation and circumstances. He alone knows

what to do when. Only God has the power and capacity to change the situation

according to His plan. He does what is right for the moment.

 

Scientists have done different conclusions concern to this energy. Very

often, scientists refer to the two terms - matter and energy - but truly only

energy exists. Whatever appears as matter also becomes energy in due course of

time.

By one of modern hypothesis the whole world is based on psychotronic power,

which is also termed bioplasmic power. This is present in every cell and every

vein of the human body. Human mind cannot comprehend the nature of this power.

This power is also called ajnatha shakti, that which is not known. It was this

power that enabled mother Sita to lift the mighty Siva Dhanush (bow of Siva)

with her little finger.

 

There exist the intimate relationship between Divinity and transcendental

power. None can describe the glory and grandeur of this transcendental power

what is beyond the comprehension of the mind and description by words. This

transcends the powers of body, mind, and intellect. Manifestation of these

powers can bring about a divinetransformation in humans' hearts.

 

Human body is a combination of materialisation, vibration and radiation. The

human body with all its limbs and muscles is known as ‘materialisation’. The

life-force (prana shakti) is known as vibration. With the help of radiation

(atma) and vibration (life-force), anyone is able to carry out his life using

materialisation (body) as the instrument.These two are coordinated by the atmic

power known as radiation.

All the divine powers are latent in human being. It is the same divine power

that is present in temples, which attracts all. Truth is one, but scholars refer

to it by many names. This is the divine magnetic power of attraction.

Today, scientists are propagating various theories to the world.

Spiritualists are also propagating about divinity in various ways. However,

mankind is not able to understand what the scientists and spiritualists are

saying. Ultimately, we can conclude that the world is made up of molecules and

atoms. The universe is a combination of atoms. The Vedantins (Vedic scholars)

say: Anoraneeyan Mahato Maheeyan (Brahman is subtler than the subtlest and

vaster than the vastest). It is because of the coming together of the atoms

that we find the five elements, human beings, and various objects and

activities in this world.

The Vedhic statement Sarvam Brahma mayam ("All is Brahman") is the key to

the understanding to the Universal Eternal Principle. The Brahman need not be

sought, at some far distant spot, on the Himaalayas or in the depths of space.

Some cosmonauts when they landed on Moon reported that God does not exist,

because they did not spot Him anywhere in their spatial journey.

Brahman is the Reality of the seeker, the Cosmonaut, the person who asserts

its existence as well as of the person who doubts or denies. The Divine is what

integrates and unites all this diversity into one single essence. Brahman is the

very urge behind all aspiration and all achievement, even the aspiration to know

Brahman. It is the activity in every atom and cell, as well as in every star and

galaxy. Brahman also means sound, voice, word, manthra and, through the

soundOM, as well as through various other manthras, it is possible for one to

develop the superfine intellect necessary to grasp the immanent and

transcendent principle called Brahmam. The Universe is the body of Brahmam that

emerged from it when the desire to become many arose in it. The Universe rose

when Brahman uttered the first word, and so, the vaak (word) is also called

Brahman. The Infinite Eternal Brahman can be cognised as having three

attributes, for the convenience of awareness: Sath, Chith and Aanandha. The

minutest particle in the Universe has these three characteristics, and the

vastest too, as also human being. "I am Brahman." It is as true as the drop of

sea water saying, "I am the sea."

Some say that God has no form and some others argue that God has an infinite

form. Truly speaking, none of these descriptions is correct. Every atom has a

form. Likewise, God also has a form. He assumes the form that His devotees

attribute to Him. He manifests in the form that His devotees adore, worship,

and contemplate on.

Sound has no form, but the object that produces sound has a form. Likewise,

bliss has no form, but the person who experiences it has a form. Fragrance has

no form, but the flower that emits fragrance has a form. Love has no form, but

the mother who confers love has a form. Water has no form, but the container

has a form. Water assumes the form of the container. Likewise, God has no form,

but the atom, which manifests Divinity, has a form. It is a mistake to argue

that God has no form. In fact, all forms are His. He is infinite and

all-pervasive.

 

Just as God showers His love on all, you should share your love with all.

God will shower His grace on those who have the spirit of equality. You should

share your love with everybody, with the spirit of oneness. Attaining God does

not mean that He is separate from you. He will manifest from within.

Reflection, reaction, and resound are outside, but reality is within. That is

the fundamental basis. God is attributeless. He has only one quality, and that

is love. That is life.

 

Bhagawan shows Himself in the form conceived by each. Whatever form is the

favourite of the devotee, He appears in that form. All forms are that of God.

The formless one assumes manifold forms for the sake of the devotees. (Reet's

*As it has concluded from Swami’s texts, magnetic power by Swami has a

pictorial- spiritual-Vedic meaning, not exact that meaning what theoretical

physicists usually are using in their calculations. Pictorial spiritual meaning

of magnetic power through Swami's examples is understandable to all people, even

to them who are illiterate. It is clear that strictly theoretical-scientific

explanation is far from spirituality and from people who are far from physic.

In fact, the Earth, the Solar System, galaxies, the Universe, and all objects

in it are fully attracted by grid of magnetic (electromagnetic) power by modern

science too. Even subatomic particles (more exactly as expressions of energy)

are not free from this universal attraction by human-made modern science (as a

special expression of Maya Reality). However, in most cases their scientific

explanations are as unknown language for them who are not scientists. Swami

solved this problem by different examples from practical and real life

connected with the Divine wisdom and the Divine vibrations.
