Mystery of Birth

[Guest guest]

16. History repeats itself. Great men come and go. Their greatness is

inscribed on their epitaphs - none to read - men who conquered the world

materially for pomp and power and there is none among them who conquered

HIM - the Almighty. But those saints, sages and seers with no pomp or

power, left behind them, the Vedic rituals, philosophy religious and

scientific teaching for people, to attain Moksha, Mukti or salvation to

spread in the world are remembered. A sacred task, for man's salvation is

performed by them for which we have to express gratitude, feel grateful and

bow to such seers in reverence.

17. Should every one observe or follow this path or principle? This world

will not be as wicked as existing. That depends on them - as a test by the

Creator - of course all cannot acquire and pass as in the School

examination - some fail and some pass.

 

18. But should a man with moral binding, integrity and mental firmness seek

this path of dedication, devotion, meditation and surrender to the Almighty,

atleast, sooner or later after his Gnhasthasrram, in this mundane world,

after attaining maturity of mind and body by gaining worldly experience in

this material life, there is the chance to get the status, power and sense

of realisation, provided his change towards salvation is firm, realising and

repenting for his past actions, when the Almighty will certainly pardon and

give him remission as in the imprisonment to a prisoner with a view,

henceforth to purify him, from further misdeeds or sins, from this mundane

world and thus grant him salvation, Mukti or Moksha.

 

19. Who on earth can say that a drop of Dhathu Bhindu will make or mar a

man's career? It all depends on his past karma and accident of birth. It

lies in him to make the best of himself with his discriminary and

discreteful powers endowed to him and brought into the world - and as such

he is not to get lost in the dark woods of the world, forgetting the very

object and the purpose he has to fulfil. He should therefore strive, strain,

exert every nerve to attain Moksham, Mukti or Salvation or God realisation.
