‘Shaktipaat’

[Guest guest]

……“In a way one can say that a society will be what

its teachers are. History lends evidence that the best

societies of the world had the best teachers and the

worst societies had the worst teachers or Gurus.

However, except the spiritual Guru, the job of the

other Gurus ends with the imparting of knowledge in

certain fields. The role of the spiritual Gurus or

Sadgurus is much more expansive and is much above the

ordinary Gurus. A Sadguru or Guru is a unique

phenomenon of nature. The Kulgurus, Siksha Gurus, the

Mantragurus, etc. impart knowledge within their

limits. The Sadguru, on the other hand, can use his

spiritual powers to evolve the human souls by leading

them through a path of piety, discipline and conduct.

 

Not only this but by awakening the inner spiritual

potentialities of the pupils or devotees through a

method called ‘Shaktipaat’ they prepare the devotees

to become the instruments of God to serve others.

Whereas in the formal system of education, the

teachers are paid for the duties they perform, in the

spiritual field these highly evolved beings do not

want any material returns. The only thing they seek is

evolution of the souls of the devotees so that they

became the agents to carry out God's will. When they

take care of any devotee, they give them training

through a series of direct experiences. Therefore,

formal education, when compared with the knowledge

imparted by the Gurus is very limited. It is basically

meant for giving knowledge, skill and an attitude (an

exercise in the personality building of the students).

Such teachings are basically meant to carry out a

livelihood or to enhance their intellectual creativity

in a certain field.

 

The Sadgurus however, give direct knowledge through a

chain of experiences leading to the purification of

the souls. These Masters are themselves evolved souls

having gone through a process of evolution through a

series of births and deaths and therefore, are

competent enough to lead the devotees in the path of

God realisation. Some people have a wrong concept that

these Gurus, who sometimes do not adorn the garb of a

modern man, are unintelligent and emotional

propagators of an imaginary concept of God. What they

fail to understand is that an evolved species of the

human race will not be governed by the rules of a

society, which they had left far behind in time.

Further, their consciousness is highly evolved to

comprehend any issue on which their consciousness is

focused. Their powers of concentration and performance

are the highest and their brain capacity is immense.

Every human being not only wants to learn the biggest

things of life but also the smallest ones. To get the

best results from such teachings some factors are

essentially required. They are: the time spent both by

the teacher and the pupil together, the eagerness of

both the student and the teacher to learn and teach

respectively, the emotional relationship between the

teacher and the pupil and most important of all, the

capacity of the pupil to receive the teachings.

 

When one wants to specialize in only one out of the

thousands streams of knowledge, one spends a

considerable number of years in different academic

institutions. From this one can imagine how much of

time it would take to learn and practice spiritualism

and what quality of relationship is required between

the Guru and the disciple. It is because of this

reason that, in the early Hindu society, the pupils

(Sishyas) and the Gurus used to live together for a

number of years tied in an emotional bond. The outer

forms of societies may go on changing but the inner

spiritual essence of the human beings always remains

the same. The real Spiritual Masters of today are

playing the same role but in different forms, adapting

to the existing societal ethos. All the creations of

God are changeable but the essence of divinity never

changes. Therefore, the vital and divine role of these

Sadgurus, the agents of knowledge and compassion will

never change. Human society will always need them.”…….
