Spiritual Dance

"Parama Purus'a" (the Supreme "Shiva" or "Krs'na") wants to make the world dance. Everybody will be dancing with His vibrations and in His tune. Parama Purus'a will be enjoying with all. Does "He" not want this? Why should He live in the dry heart of a yogi? He would like a sweet, loving heart--"Sarasa Hrdaya." He will not like the desert. He would like fertile land. So, the heart of a devotee is like the fertile land. That is why Parama Purus'a says, "Mad Bhaktah yatra Ga'yante", i.e., wherever my devotees perform Kiirtan in full swing at once I reach there. You may say that Parama Purus'a is omnipresent. Now Parama Purus'a is omnipotent, He is also omniscient, it is a fact ; but there is a hub of that omniscience, there is a hub of those premonitions and post-monitions of all expressions. A central point is there. Parama Purus'a is omnipresent but He has a nucleus (Cakrana'bhi). Parama Purusa' will place that nucleus wherever He likes. He will take it wherever He likes. Parama Purus'a says, "When my devotees sit single-minded for Kiirtan (Ananyor Mama'ta Vis'n'ormamata')- "I at once take myself there. This is what I do." This morning I said that the practice of Dharma (i.e. Dharma Sa'dhana') is the characteristic of human beings. Now I say, "If you want to be established in Dharma Sa'dhana', then in any case do not forget the importance of Kiirtana, the greatness of Kiirtana, and also the greatness of devotion. Always remember that the devotion begins with aesthetic science and its ultimate domain ends where supra-aesthetic science (Mohana Vijina'na) begins."

The truth is that Kiirtan really puts you into deep presence...

Parama Purusha is the supreme consciousness and Prakrti is the natural expression of this awareness... Both are always in union, just as Shiva and Shakti... Parama Purusha is referred to as "He" but obviously, the great ideas about the Supreme, that which we also all are, is far beyond any gender. It's all a hint to inspire the true accumulation of present moment awareness (that which is infinite to accumulate and which hurts none to enjoy and become), which leads to the vibrational transformation, integration and healing of the core of our beings. When we are seated in our true presence, we are beyond dogma, thought, and any manipulation and fabrication. Follow your heart and see what rings true for you.
