All About Love, Aesthetics and Ecstasy
What is love? It is the expressed form of devotion. When does this expressed form occur? When there is seed, only then iwill proud; that seed is devotion. So, only hat one can make oneself great, who ne can take the correct ideation of 'aroma Purusha, who has the seed of devotion within.. How can you surrender without hasti, devotion? Therefore, from centimes aesthetic science existed nd there was devotion. While one remains in aesthetic science, one does ot get entry into supra-aesthetic ciency. One feels, "I am serving Param purusha, i like Him, because i get leasure in serving Him, by taking His elation i get joy."If you ask artists or architects why they do what they dory do they create works of art-they vill say. "We get pleasure from it."This is aesthetic science. A poet composes a poem, because he gets pleasure. Parents love their child very much. Do they love forth sake of their child? No! They love their child because they get pleasure for themselves. If their child turns into a vagabond, or becomes cruel, and he does not even utter the parents' names, then parents do not get pleasure. After that what happens? By taking the ideation of Param Purusha, when the quantity of pleasure increases, a person loses the self first. He feels’ take the ideation of Parama Purusha not for my sake. I love Param Purusha so that, because of my love, He gets pleasure. I may or may not get it." When this stage is attained, it is called Ragatmika Bhakti, when one feels, "Ilove Parama Purusha, i do not care whether He loves meornot "Wher this Ragatmika Bhakti is attained, in that stage one is also called Gopa as described in scriptures. Gopa here does not mean the cowherd. Gopayate means to give pleasure-"Gopayate yah sah gopah." One whose nature is to give pleasure to Parama Purusha or the speaking tree Paramatma is Gopa. When one is established in Ragatmika Bhakti, from Raganuga one enters the arena of Mohana Vijnana when one is fascinated and charmed, and in that state, art, architecture, all come to an end; one's verbosity stops, one becomes mute. This is Ragatmika Bhakti. So long as human beings are in the sphere of Raganuga Bhakti they are in domestic life; they create arts, architecture, literature and painting, and get pleasure in them. They erewithin the of ogthot -Nandana Vijnana And what happens when they are established in supra-aesthetic scienceAti Nandana Vijnana? All their worldmusic is finished. Allthe Ragas and Raginis and the art of dancing, whatever they be, they come to an endIn that condition, there remains onlyecstatic state, Bhavibhora. The musicthat state is called kirtana. If you want to be established in Dharma Sadhana, then in any case donot forget the importance and greatneof kirtana, the greatness of kirtana, aalso the greatness of devotion. Alwayrememberthat the devotion begins with aesthetic science and its ultima domain ends where supra-aesthetic science-Mohana Vijnana-begins.
