Guest guest Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Om Sai Ram! FROM SHRI C.B. SATPATHY'S ……“The Indian sub-continent was the abode of the great saints and seers during the nineteenth and the first half of the present century. The last century witnessed the emergence of the divine personalities like Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Sri Nigamananda, Sri Lahiri Mahasaya, Sri Lokanath Bramachari, Sri Bamakshepa, Sri Vivekananda and Sri Bisudhananda Saraswati etc. in the north-eastern belt of India. More specifically they were confined to the areas adjacent to rivers like the Ganges, the Yamuna and the Bramhaputra. Indians are well aware of the divine qualities of these enlightened souls. During that period there also took place the divine manifestations of the seers of the western and central India who used to stay in the basin of the great rivers like the Narmada and the Godavari. But in reality, the seers who have realised the absolute or have reached the highest realm of spiritual attainment are present forever in the whole universe whether in an embodied or in an un-embodied state. They can operate in the gross, subtle or mental world. By virtue of their divine powers they touch upon both the animate and the inanimate world. They have been defined by different names like Brahmishta Paramahansa or Jeevan-mukta etc. and are free from the chains of life and death. They are in a sublime state of Turiya or have gone beyond it. They have been actually chosen to execute the divine mission and for that, all categories of these seers, free from individual ego, work together for the execution of the divine-mission. Some of the seers stay away from the crowd and engage their spiritual powers from a secluded corner for the deliverance of the people. This is one of the profiles of their spirit of compassion. They are, indeed, the ambassadors of the divine compassion. A few of them, due to this compassion for humanity, get embodied in the world to uplift the souls of the fallen and the suffering. They are revered as Sadgurus or Perfect Masters by the scriptures.Five Sadgurus are said to operate in the whole world in a particular milieu and one of them is indeed, a Param Sadguru. They are assisted by 51 spiritually realised Sidhas both corporeal and non-corporeal. Besides this, in this hierarchy there are about 5000 evolved souls stationed in different rungs in the ladders of spiritual enlightenment. This galaxy of seers is said to be functional or operative for a period of seven hundred years.".........
