Guru Grace Gratitude..

Jai Gurudev!

Ever since I finished teaching my first course, I've been thinking a lot about Guru Grace..
This is what I have been thinking from last few weeks..

Since last 4-5 years, I've been telling all the volunteers about Guru Grace..

Often I share my experience, make them share theirs..

Rishi Vidyadharji once told me that when you share your Guru Grace experience, your consciousness gets uplifted..

But how exactly does Guru Grace flow?

People say, "Sadhana, Seva and Satsang is only what you need to do for the Grace to flow"

Seva, sadhana and satsang makes you illegible..

Many of them say, "the more efforts you put, the more Grace flows.."

Then some say, effort is not the only thing required for the Grace to flow..

Sometimes you put a lot of efforts but nothing happens..

Sometimes you don't put as much efforts but things fall in places at the right time..

I as a 'human being' am not qualified to analyze the phenomenon of Guru Grace, but I just wanted to share my experience so that the 'consciousness gets uplifted' :p

Many a times when I am done putting efforts and at the last moment when I surrender everything to Guruji, the invisible energy starts to flow and even before I know, things are done.

But, surrender without efforts is of no use.

Also surrender and efforts are of no use without Knowledge..

Guruji once said, "In Spirituality Faith comes first and knowledge follows.."

So basically all these surrender, efforts and knowledge come only when there is Faith..

So after analyzing all this stuff, I thought I know the secret and I started my seva for next course but again...all the technology behind Grace did not help...

Then I remembered one of my teachers telling his experience..

Guruji once said, "You need Yukti and Shakti (skills and power) to make things happen"

And my teacher thought 'What if I don't have both?'

and the very next moment Guruji looked at him and said, "Doesn't matter if you don't have both.. Yukti nahi hai to koi baat nahi BHAKTI se kaam chal jayega.."

As soon as I remembered this, things again started to fall in place, I was out of all the thinking mess in no time.. and I am grateful to Guruji for making me go through all this thinking process.. :)

Jai Gurudev!

PS: i would really like your feedback and feel free to share your experience..

Love..JGD
