[A].THE INTRODUCTION:
Is the GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE] and the GODDESS/GODS one and the same?
Should we humans accord the primacy to a fellow human being over the Almighty/Lord/Super-Consciousness/Absolute?
Most of the spiritual-seekers, especially in India are wittingly or unwittingly misled as shown in the following discussion, into the trap of worshipping a human being only as the GOD or the Supreme-Consciousness by misinterpreting the word ‘GURUU' to mean the human-teacher in the following famous verse in the Hindi language by Kabeera:
"Guruu Govenda Douu khadae kaakae laagae paaon,
Guruu balehaaree aapnae deyo Gobvenda bataaya"
[B].THE DISCUSSION:
1. The GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE] is the all pervading AATMA in the entire creation. It is inside every being or the entity. It is FORMLESS in its final-stage.
2. The GURUU TATTVA is the only element that manifests itself in the form of Brhmaa, Veshnnu and Mahaesha. It can and does acquire different forms including the human-form.
3. The formless GURUU TATTVA out of mercy and compassion for us becomes/acquires the form of GOVENDA [guide] to help us humans reach and merge into it [The GURUU TATTVA] to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of birth and death. Thus, the GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE/ PARAMA TATTVA/PARAMAA TATTVA] and GOVENDA [guide] are one and the same in broader spiritual energy terms and perspective.
4. This GOVENDA [guide] can be in terms of some GODDESS, GOD, a line from a book, some experience, some human-Sadguruu or some other thing which helps the spiritual seeker reach and merge into the GURUU TATTVA. Thus, it is not a necessary condition to have only some human as a guide on the spiritual path.
5. Therefore, if I found the GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE] and GOVENDA [guide] standing in front of me, I as a true spiritual seeker would bow before the GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE] because if the GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE] had not been kind to me in the first place itself, I would not have been graced with GOVENDA [guide] to guide me to reach and merge into the GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE]...! It is the GURUU TATTVA [The ABSOLUTE] which told/guided-about/got [deyo bataaya] me the GOVENDA [guide]!
6. It is absolutely wrong to say that the one can achieve a Brhma-darshan but cannot uphold it, so to sustain the same could be possible only after a certain stage once she/he has sought a so-called real Sadguru who can guide her/him to reach the further state and without the so-called human-Sadguruu, she/he cannot reach the further state. The truth is that continuous practice is a must to sustain this blissful state irrespective of whether achieved through grace of the PARAMAA/PARAMA TATTVA, self-efforts or a human-guruu. However, it is true for most of the spiritual-seekers that while self-practising, he/she may face a lot of difficulties and there are numerous chances to get diverted from the actual target where she/he will find herself/himself nowhere!
7. If some spiritual-seeker has willingly fallen into the trap of blind-following and has decided to be not ready to see the light of the reason, rationality and factual facts, well no one can help in this matter. So, let each one be to oneself. All spiritual seekers are correct from their own perspectives!
[C].The EXAMPLE:
Ramakrishna Paramhansa was once asked by his human-Guruu Totaapuri to go in for the NERAAKAARA SAADHANAA. Ramakrishna Paramhansa didn't believe in him blindly. He went to the DIVINE MOTHER and told her about it. Only after she gave her consent/go-ahead, did he go back to his human-Guruu Totaapuri and did the NERAAKAARA SAADHANAA. He clearly had more faith in the DIVINE MOTHER than any human-guruu like his human-Guruu Totapuri. Why? Because, like any sensible human being/spiritual-seeker, Ramakrishna Paramhansa probably understood well that the human-Guruu always might not be correct, but the DIVINE MOTHER could never be wrong...! This shows the primacy of the DIVINE MOTHER over human-Guruus![A].THE INTRODUCTION:

Is the Lord Sheva/Shiv the only ABSOLUTE [true BRHMA] as is being claimed by the devout devotees of the Lord Sheva/Shiv?
[1].The Introduction:
Many spiritual-seekers think that the Lord Sheva/Shiv is the only true BRHMA [ABSOLUTE]. But, is it really true?
[2].The Discussion:
As regards the Lord Shiva being the only true BRHMA, well our experiences tell us a different story. I remember having once initiated a well-educated well-cultured bhadralok-kind professional Bengali middle-aged couple in Pune, a few years back, into the Satyaa Paramaa Tattva Jyotee Bhakte Yoga.
They were seated with me and the process followed [the details of which cannot be divulged here because the FAKE SAINTS/FAKE YOGEEs around may misuse the information to fool the gullible innocent public]. Like many devout worshipper of the Lord Sheva/Shiv, the couple was fully sure of the Lord Sheva/Shiv being the only true BRHMA. During the process, they had the true glimpses of the Lord Sheva/shiv and did not wish to go beyond him. But, when they went beyond the Lord Sheva/Shiv, they found there was no Lord Sheva/Shiv!
...It was only the Swayama Brhma stage…There were no two..There was no duality of 'the perceiver' and 'the perceived'...It was just the ABSOLUTE PARAMAA TATTVA in its manifestationless form full of light! After that novel true spiritual experience, the Bengali couple changed their view about the Lord Sheva/Shiv and realised that it is just the PARAMAA TATTVA only that is the real/final ABSOLUTE TRUTH…call it by whatever name you may like to call it!
True "then is left a pure AATMA without AHMA" in the stage of the Swayama Brhma, In this state, the AATMA TATTVA is definitely without any AHMA [human unreasonable ego that is seen in this world].
I carried out a sufficient number of spiritual experiments on numerous purified spiritual-seekers to satisfy my own self, since I believe firmly that my own single experience could not have validated the truth of this phenomenon.
As I have often said, there can be no real substitute to your own individual experience as a Saadhaka. You have to experience it yourself, first.
When one says that there is no need to worship the GODDESSES/GODS after the self-realisation then it means that one can directly contemplate on the ABSOLUTE manifestationless PARAMA/PARAMAA TATTVA. It does not mean that you as a Saadhaka need give up the respect for the GODDESSES/GODS if you love respecting them.
It's just like that after having passed the Matriculation, you join a degree college for a higher degree. So, naturally you'll have to pay the attention to your present college lecturers/professors rather than to your past school teachers.
[3].The Conclusion:
Therefore, with all humility and full respect for the strongly personally-held belief by the devotees of the Lord Sheva/Shiv, I wish to conclude by saying that the true BRHMA is formless/manifestationless only! As regards carrying on discussions, one can go on debating for aeons if one has oneself not had true spiritual experiences, with neither party acceding to the correct perception. So, I would like to round off this discussion by saying that you as a spiritual-seeker go by your own experience. Don't believe in me, scriptures or anyone else if your own spiritual experience does not tally with our experiences!Is the Lord Sheva/Shiv the only ABSOLUTE [true BRHMA] as is being claimed by the... more
