Heart Cave - Come O Come O My Beloved !

The Heart Cave

Come Oh Come my Beloved

Where Art Thou, I cried in Pain

Where is my Beloved, Who would hold my Hand, Caress my Cheek

Where is that Love, that could hold my Heart, I Cried, I Cried.

Hide and Seek is the game you chose,

Not only did you hide, to seek you, I gambled away myself

This Heart you tore to shreds, 

Again and again, with every game you played.

You Said, “Come to the Shores”, I came

“Get onto the Boat”, I found a way in, nary a ticket

Everyone looked at me with knowing eyes

They Knew your game, Only I was blind, “My Beloved will come.”

Now, Everyone now knows how to play me

Oh here goes the fool, in search of his love

Lets play with him, they say he has lost his mind

For love, he will work for a penny and dance a jig.

Is there any fool in the world, who would do that?

Lets praise this idiot and milk the fun

For none may ever come this way 

Like this One, ever chance we may miss.

Ha, Ha, They laughed, “ A Fool in Search of a Heart” 

All the Young, the Beautiful, the Old and the Ugly

The Strong, the Weak, the Idiot and the Imbecile

After their Fun, They passed me around

But then You came, Like a Tempest, a Thunderstorm

Awakened - Dreaming, Heartsick and Forlorn, 

“My Beloved had come !”, I was too weak to celebrate

But He scooped me up , “ Lets face this one together”, He said.

Rouges and Thieves, he routed them all

His Mighty arms wielded the Sword, they all fell, blades of grass

No fun left now, the Master Strategist weaved the finale,

In the warp and weft of his luminous mind.

To the Cave of the Heart, He descended

The Seer - Will, with a terrible roar, His furious allies aligned

He broke open that boulder rock, the entrance door

To the Secret Cavern, The Temple of God 

Wretched that Enemy, That lecherous misers, held captive the Joyous Light,

For Aeons now, the Temple Defiled,

With Furious Vengeance, He razed mine Enemy

Freed the hostage, the Golden Sun.

The Sun of Truth, Now Ascending High

Now Joyous Melodies, Ring through the Sky

Whence was Fear, who ruled so tight

Fled against the Glowing Light.

My Beloved, He embraced me tight

Called me Son, My Sun of Light

I Am your Father, Babaji I Am

I Am your Son, Babaji, I Am.

This Love, I feel, so, beyond this Hearth

None can pin whether Father, Mother, Brother or Friend 

Truly Unconditioned Beloveds’ love,  This love of mine,

Expands up to fill this Earth, then the Sky, the Sun, the Moon.

Now I stand at the edge of CyberSpace

Calling All Friends, Brothers and Sisters, to join this Space

The Cave of the Heart, Where Your Beloved Resides

Which All the Cowards have erased from our minds.

Dedicated to SatGuru Babaji Nagaraj.

Sri Guru Gita

Paramaacharya Padapraaptam

Paramaatma Swaruupakam

Babaji Gurum Vande

Bhavaroga Bhishagwaram

My obeisance to Babaji Guru, who has attained the seat of Supreme Guru-hood and who is the Embodiment of  the Supreme Being and is the Healer of the   afflictions of this worldly life

I bow to the Guru who is the very Brahman who is at the same time with and without attributes; whose form is beyond comprehension and is unclear to the non­initiate. 

Note : It must be noted here that "Guru" is not referred to here as a specific individual but as the Brahman himself. 

Almost all the Tantras are written as conversations. It is a form of conveying ideas. So nothing much need be made of this. 

Note : "Suta" normally refers to a Charioteer. In very many tantric and other religious books the expounder is "Suta" it is again not a specific individual. In the olden days the Charioteer of King used to be well­versed in all things mundane and spiritual so that he can advise the Master in times of need. Hence the exalted position of Charioteer or "Suta". 

In this sloka the Rishis are asking the Suta who is addressed as all knowing and asks him to explain the form and attributes of Guru, knowing which, removes all the blockages to one's spiritual and material progress. 

he listening to which alone gives freedom from all the worldly and spiritual sorrows. This being the path that has given the ascetics full knowledge of all things temporal and spiritual. 

Having known which, the human being is released from the cycles of births and deaths; This is the great principle that we wish to hear from you. 

May you be pleased to tell us this secret of secrets that is Guru Gita and we are waiting anxiously to hear from you. Note : Here again it is stressed that this mention of Secrecy is just to emphasize the importance of the matter. Having been so entreated again and again Suta said the following sweet words:­ 

In the days of yore, in Mount Kailasa, served by Siddhas and Gandharvas; in the wonderful and beautiful hut made of wish fulfilling Kalpalata flowers, 

Once, Shiva, while sitting on Tiger skin and worshipped by great Sages like Suka, and expounding the ultimate truths in the midst of the great sages 

Suddenly prostrated to someone. Surprised at seeing him suddenly prostrating in great respect to someone Parvathy asked:­ I bow to you Lord of Lords, and the teacher of the world. You are bowed to by the whole world and the Gods.
You are respected by Vishnu and others; Whom are you bowing to, you who is bowed to by every one else?
Seeing your action I am surprised beyond words. Please kindly tell me who you are bowing to. 

O Lord! Knower of all that is there to be known!! The leader of all austerities!! Please tell me the greatness of Guru!! O Lord!! By what method will the body verily become Brahma? 

     Kailaasa-shikhare Ramye Bhakti-sadhana Hetave

Parvathi says
     O Mahadeva, Guru of the entire cosmos! Please clear my doubt as would thou as Guru to his disciple. Knower of all Dharma! O Sambho, Please reveal to me the greatness of the Guru, to whose devotion is the foremost of all vows.

1. Kena Maargena Bho Swaamin! Dehii Brahma Mayo Bhavet, Tat Kripaam Kuru Me Swaamin, Namaami Charanau Tava                                                                                                    

       Please have compassion and tell me on which path one must travel, so that the entire being will be Brahman, O Lord! I bow at your feet

1. Shiva Says

Yasya Deve Paraa Bhaktih, Yattaa Deve Tattaa Gurau                 Tasyaite Kattiaahyarttaa, Prakaasante Mahaatmanah

Siva says:-

A person of grace who is devoted to Guru, as he is devoted to godhead will have the wisdom of all , rising from within spontaneously

1. Mamah Ruupaasi Devi Tvam Tvatpreetartham Vadamyaham  Lokopakaarakah prashno na kenaapi kritah puraa

Shiva spoke to Goddess Parvathi,
‘Thou art That,’ it has been proclaimed; No one’s ever asked this boon but Thee, This Question beneficial to the world has not been asked by anyone before.

1. Durlabham Trishu Lokeshu, Tat Srunushwa Vadaamyaham, Gurubrahma Vinaa Naanyat, Satyam Satyam Varaanane

O beautiful One! I will tell you that which is very rare in the three worlds. Please listen. Guru is none other than the Absolute Brahman - This verily is the truth.

6. Yo Guru Sa Shiva Prokto, Yah Shiva Sa Guruh Smritah Vikalpam Yastu Kurviita Sa Naro Guru Talpagah
I am revealing, 0 beautiful one
The mystery of the universe;
God is not different from the Sadguru, In Truth they’re always One.
           

1. Veda Shaastra Puraanaani Ithihasaadikaani Cha                      Mantra Yantraadi Vidyaascha Mohanochaatanaadikam.      Shaiva Shaaktaagamaadini, Hyanye cha Bahavo Mataah Apabhramsah Samastaanaam,  Jiivaanaam Bhraanta Chetasaam. Japa Tapo Vratam Tiirtham Yajno Daanam Tathaiva Cha  Guru Tatvam Avijnaaya, Sarvam Vyartham Bhaveth Priye 

The Vedas, the Shastras, Puranas, the Itihasas etc., the science of Mantras, Yantras Mohana, Uchatana etc., cults like the Shaiva, Agama, Shakta, etc., and other cults existing in the world today are merely false theories expressed in corrupted words which confuse the ignorant and deluded Jivas. Japa austerities, observances, pilgrimage sacrifice, charity - all these become a mere waste without understanding the Guru Tattva. 

Penance, vows and sacrifice, Pilgrimages and charity,
Leave that seeker in ignorance, Who knows not the Guru’s worth. 

7. Goodda-avidyaa Jagat Maayaa,  Deham Ajnhaaana Sambhavam  Vijnaanam  Yat Prasaadena, Guru Shabdena Kathayate 

Because of doubt and ignorance, not easily percievable, The world is illusory, the physical body with all the senses is mired in ignorance.
Truth is hidden from the scattered mind; That Grace which results in knowledge  (that which dispels this darkness of ignorance  is Guru) Guru removes it with His light,
The Divine Mother is revealed. 

1. Dehii Brahma Bhavet Yasmaat, Twat Kripaartham VadaamiTat,  Sarva Paapa Vishuddhaatmaa,  Srii Guroh Paadasevanaat. 

I shall disclose to you that which causes the soul to evolve into godhead. It is the path of service at his Master’s feet, All his sins will be washed away;
His peaceful mind will reflect the Self;
In love I disclose this to Thee. 

1. Guru Paadodakam Samyak Samsaaraarnava Taarakam, Ajnaana Moola Haranam, Janma Karma Nivaarakam, Jnaana Vyraagya Sidhyarttam, Guru Padokam Pibet

The Ocean of samsara, exemplified by birth and death, has come from the Foundation-less and Inexpressible Lotus, from which springs forth an ambrosial “ liquid”, which flow from the feet of Guru. Drinking that kills the fundamental restlessness of mind, and the Knowledge of “Who I Am”, comes about. As there is nothing other than Brahman, then there are no objects left to desire. Thus, “ Vairagya” (non-attachment or dispassion) comes about. When there is vairagya, there is perfection/realization meaning “sarvam brahmamayam jagat” (all is Brahman) is realized

1. Guru Padokam Paanam, Guroruchchhishtabhojanam. Gururmoorte Sadaa Dhyaanam, Guror Naamah Sadaa Japah. 

In this way, partake of that which comes forth from the Feet of Guru, that which springs forth from Guru,  Always meditate on the Form of Guru.  Chant His mantram reverently.

1. Kaashi Kshetram Nivaasashcha, Jaahnavii Charanodakam,  Gurur Vishveshvarah Saakshaat, Taarakam Brahmanishchayah.

Kashi is where the Guru resides, in the Heart Cave, where the pure  holy waters of Ganga flows forth from the feet of Guru.Where one witnesses and realizes , Guru is verily the Lord of the Universe and the Supreme Power that ferries the soul acoss the ocean of worldly existence. and where the Omkar sound of Divine Mother is ever resounding.

1. Shirah Paadankitam Kritvaa, Yatha te Chaakshayovatah: Teertha Raajah Prayaago- asau, Gurumootrtyai Namo Namah. Gurumoortim Smaret Nityam, Guror Naama Sadaa Japet, Gurorjnaan Prakurveeta, Guroranyam Na Bhaavaye.

Prayag is considered the most holy of all holy waters and it is here the akshyavata - the everlasting banyan tree stands. Devotion to that Form of the Guru, by prostrating at whose feet, one earns the immortality ( of the akshayavata) and the merit of taking a dip in the holiest of holiest waters.(all impurities are wahed away, all diseases cured)

Constantly contemplate the Form of the Guru, Constantly repeat the name of the Guru. Follow Guru’s instructions. (The thinking, hearing, speech and vision should be fixed on Guru)
On His form meditate all day; Sing in thy heart His holy name; Follow His teachings carefully; Let the mind ever rest on Him.

Guru is Brahman, Doing as Guru says results in the attainment of Brahman. Supreme knowledge from the Guru’s lips, Can be realized through His grace alone; Inside the heart keep His precious love, As a wife keeps her husband there. By His Grace, one’s abode, status, accomplishments, sustenance and such are fully secured. Thus engage yourself in meditation on the Sat Guru

Not gods or demons of any realm, Know the wisdom of the Sadguru; But serve Him with the purest love, His knowledge will bloom in Thee. 

      Gukaarashcha Andhakaarohi,  Rukaarah Teja Uchyate Ajnaana Graasakam Brahma, Gurureva Na Samsayah 

The syllable ‘Gu’ represents darkness; The syllable ‘Ru’ stands for radiant Light; There is no doubt Guru is the Lord; the Absolute Brahman. He dispells darkness with His light. 

     Gukaarah Prathamo Varno,  Maayaadi Gunabhaasakah Rukaaroasti Parabrahma, Maayaabhraanti Vimochakam. 

‘Gu’ is illusory changing world; Maya itself embodied with gunas (qualities), that which appears to be real to men; ‘Ru’ is Brahman, the Supreme Consciousness, liberator from Maya - illusion.  Ever free from Maya’s veil.

With unshaking faith the wise men say, There is nothing higher than the Sadguru; Such Guruhood is unattainable even to the deities. This Supreme Guru is also worshipped by elevated celestials .
