Hari Om!
16. (CONTD.)
Swami Aparajitananda elaborates on how to develop Bhakti and to see, understand and realise His love for us as His own Self. The result of ignoring Him is also pointed out (viz. sorrow). Swamiji quotes plenty of verses from Gītā with the central message: "Turn to Me." and concludes that Bhakti is mother of all virtues.
17. SOLITUDE
Shankaracharya ji is quoted for the type and quality of solitude. Swamiji explains how withdrawal is important and how virtues decide quality of Meditation.
18. A-RATI JANASANSADISHU is defined and clarified. To answer the question: If Satsang comes under this, Swamiji explains Shankaracharya ji's definition of Janasansad and emphasises the point that "Satsangatve nihi-sangatvam" must happen.
19. NITYA-ADHYĀTMA JÑĀNA
Practice is emphasised to develop "eye of wisdom" till Knowledge becomes effortless. The process prescribed is: "See - do - learn."
20. TATTVAJÑĀNĀRTHA-DARSHANAM
Inspiration to practise Jñāna comes from Darshanam (seeing the purpose and goal of Moksha) as Shankaracharya ji also calls: "This is Knowledge and all other ajñāna."Swamiji clarifies the important statement: THIS refers to 20 values listed. The advice is to cultivate virtues (not outer signs). Lord also loves Sādhus and devotees and promises to protect them.
Swamiji, in utmost humility, suggests to be tuned to God to be one with God; and to get rare moments of glimpses of virtues (Truth) and invokes grace and blessings of God and Guru-paramparā.
