In the sixth talk on ‘Way of Living – SriRamchandra’s Commandments’, Sri K.C.Narayana explains the need to get back to the fundamentals of being with Nature. Each of the commandments is elaborated in detail The explanation on the 9th commandment where he says ‘We should live in such a way that other person develops love towards God because love towards God means love towards all’ puts it in very unambiguous terms as to what the purpose of our lives is.
‘Stages of progress’, the seventh talk in this series takes us along the various psychological states that develop as one starts moving in this system. There is a small discourse on the topic ‘determination’ at the end the talk, which has personally been illumining to me, and I wish and pray that the same would be the case for other readers also.
The eight talk on ‘Meditational practices’ is about meditation, the cleaning process and prayer apart from the universal prayer that is to be done at 9:00 p.m. The concepts of mala, vikshepa and avarana are dealt in detail while explaining the cleaning process.
The ninth talk on ‘Diary writing’ highlights the necessity of writing a diary, the necessity to note the experiences, the lapses in sadhana. Such sentences as ‘If you don’t learn your alphabets properly, I am sure you are not going to understand any literature. So also if you do not know how to write diary and if you don’t start writing diary, the chances are that you will miss the finer aspects of your sadhana’ drive home the point the need to write the diary in this talk. The section on prayer also puts it in a very candid way as to how prayer is done by the majority, as also how it is supposed to be done.
The last talk on ‘Introductory sittings’ talks about the process of introduction as well as the various states one goes through by the help of the Master in this path.
I wish to share a small couplet that was felt during one of the meditations upon the completion of the work.
‘Forgiveness is the gift to be given to all. It is not done since the heart is small. For the heart to encompass all,
Love Him who loves All’
It is with a feeling of deep gratitude that this work is placed at feet of the masters. K.C.SRIHARI
