Sri Baktha Mandharaya Namaha,
(Bakthar’kalukku Maram Pol nintru Nizhal alikkum Swami Ramanujar’ai Vanangukiraen)
Sri Dasarathiye Namaha,
Exactly correct as brother Baktha said.
Here is what adiyen would like to SHARE based on Acharyan/SriVelukkudi Krishna Swami Blessings with references as much as possible.
*********************************************************************
Only the Baktha can judge their own GunaMeter readings and no one can judge except BhagavAn. That’s why adiyen put as a reference % values for the Baktha’s GunaMeter readings. If added comes to 105%, So, the Baktha can decide the actual values based on the their own GunaMeter readings to make a total of 100%.
NO, Ours or Others Guna’s are not taken care by BhagavAn. Since BhagavAn has given the ‘Rule Book’ (Shastras) and Acharyan and Sathvik-Guru’s like our Sri Velukkudi Swami, BhagvAn excepts us the follow the rule book/Sathvik-Guru/Acharyan using our little Gyanam, but HE will help only if we ask for help. Till that time, HE keeps quiet.
This nature of BhagavAn “Keeping Quiet” is called as “Udhaseenatvam” (Kandu Kollamal Irutthal). The Rule Book ‘Shastras’ tells us about “what BhagavAn ‘likes and don’t like’ which is the Do’s & Dont’s”.
PoorvaAcharyar Swami Vedanta Desikan says:
Prathikoolyasya Varjanam (Anishtam Thavirkai) –> Don’t do what BhagavAn SriRama-SitaPiratti don’t like.
Anukoolyasyaa Sankalpam (Ishtam Seikai) –> Do what BhagavAn SriRama-SitaPiratti likes.
So, BhagavAn only gives the “Phalam” of our actions and this Kalyana Gunam of BhagavAn is termed as “PhalaPradhatvam”. So, if we follow and do it right, then the Phalam is ‘Applaud’ and if we don’t follow, then the Phalam is Opposite of the Applaud. But, BhagavAn WILL NOT CORRECT US, if we do it wrong, since HE expects us to follow the ‘rule book (shastras) using the little Gyanam and climb the ladder.
However, when we follow Acharyan and Sathvik-Guru like our Sri Velukkudi Swami, then they will correct us by not do a wrong thing, since THEY KNOW ALL THE ‘IN & OUT’ of the shastras and we don’t know what and all ‘Shastras’ says us to do. This nature of Acharyan/Sri Velukkudi Swami is called as “Thadutthu AatKollum Thanmai” (They will stop us from doing anyhting that is Prathikoolyasya Varjanam). This is the STAND-OUT Kalyanam Gunam of Swami Ramanujar which is being followed by our Acharyar’s and Sri Velukkudi Swami, so the Jeevatham travels in the correct path.
************************************************************************
Here is what adiyen does a self-check of the GunaMeter. Adiyen tried to write down what adiyen learned from Swami’s discourses. Then do the ‘Proofing’ (Validate) by again listening to the same discourse, then make corrections again, since there is high possiblty of adiyen mixing adiyen’s karmas into Swami’s answers.
Adiyen try to listen same topic 5 to 10 times which ever topic we like, so we can understand what Swami says. Just listening once, will not adhere to our mind due our Anaadhi Kaala Vaasanas/Karmas.
Thus the “GunaMeter” is nothing but the “GURU-BAKTHI” on Sathvika-Guru like our Sri Velukkudi Swami.
ANYONE can improve BhagavAt Vishaya Gyanam (Spiritual Knowledge) by having GURU-BHAKTHI, which is the ultimate answer that adiyen has understood so far from Swami’s Upanyasams [“Bhakthi/KrithakjGyatha(Gratitute) towards SAATHVIKA-Guru”].
1): Swami’s EnpAni #601 says about the Guru-Bhakthi using Wi-Fi as example.. Wi-Fi network is the is the BhagavAn; Wi-Fi Password is the Acharyar Sambandham. Wi-Fi netwrok is always there everywhere, but without log-in Password, we will not receive the Messages (BhagavAt Anughraham for Gyanam/Bhakthi) automatically.
2): Swami on Vithura Neethi #577 in the starting 2 to 4 minutes of the EnpaNi audio says about Guru-Bhakthi.
So, When we say we are “Acharya or Sri Velukkudi Swami SriPadha Thuli”,
‘Thuli’ means “Dust” (we Agyanis)
‘SriPadham’ means “Lotus feet of Acharyan/Sri Velukkudi Swami”.
The ‘Thuli’ doesn’t get adhered to the ‘SriPadham’ if there is no ‘Adhesion’.
The ‘Adhesion’ is the GURU-BAKTHI’ which makes us ‘dust’ stick to the ‘SriPadham’.
GURU-BAKTHI is “Listenting and FOLLOWING”. Without ‘Following’, means ‘countering against the FINAL ASNWER’, so no adhesion (no GURU-BAKTHI). Then, the ‘Thuli’ falls down from the ‘SriPadham’ and further spiritual progress doesn’t happen.
Knowing everything in Spiritualism is “NOT A MEANS TO MOKSHAM”. It is “KRUPA KATAKSHAM” of Swami Ramanujar/PoorvAcharyars on Agyanis like us that gives us MOKSHAM. So, when those who already have Acharyar Sambhandham (ANYONE can be Acharya Sambhandhi, just AASAI is the criteria), MOKSHAM is gauranteed in this birth, since the lineage starts from the LOTUS FEET of GeethaAcharyan SriKrishna. At the same time, since we have decided to live our life (Druptha Prapannan), we have to “TIME-PASS” the remaining period after Acharya Sambhandham. So what to Time-Pass, just spent time in “Kainkaryam and know Smapradhayam” and leave this materialtics world at the end of this Shareeram. Sometimes Acaharyas/SriSo, knowing all in Spirtualism is not means to Moksham.
The “Spiritual Knowledge that helps us to do “KAINKARYAM (SERIVE)” to BhagavAn/Acharya/Bhaktas is what is needed in our life which comes by GURU-BAKTHI.
So, what happens if I don’t understand what Swami says, this can be done by “asking again with Submissiveness/politeness without aggression”. This is called “clarification’ rather than ‘countering’, same as how ” Parikshit aksed Sukhacharyar for clarification”.
*******************************************************************************
Finally, GURU-Bakthi leads to “Anukoolyasyaa Sankalpam (Ishtam Seikai) –> Do what BhagavAn SriRama-SitaPiratti likes”.
Adiyen was happy when the Baktha said ” Answerin line with reference to Acharyas and not adiyen’s own opinions”. This shows the Baktha’s GURU-BAKTHI, so the Sathvik % reading in GunaMeter is very high. Adiyen’s Pranaamam.
Adiyen Sri Velukkudi Krishna Dasan,
Adiyen Acharya Dasan,
Adiyen Ramanuja Dasan,
Ranu Chod Rai SriKrishna BhagavAn ki Jai.
