Prabhat Samgiita N. 1599 (05/07/1984) K

Who came into the corner of my mind?You came silently and sat down silently.You lit up my extinguished lamp.

Who am I thinking of day and night?It is You that I have wanted.

fter a long time in a lonely forest,Your laughter was as effulgent as adiamond,

and yet, You remain an unknown traveller.

Who does not know the joy of a moonlitnight and the beauty of a stream?

You sweetly delighted and vibrated mymind and made me extremely happy.

"Pshabaddho Bhavejjiivah pshmuktobhavecchivah"

An individual enmeshed in the snare of My is calledjiiva or microcosm. And a person who is free from thefetters of My becomes one with Shiva.

It is the nature of jiivas to live in bondage. However, theone endowed with cosmic grace gets liberation fromthese bondages by dint of sdhan, and attains onenesswith that Supreme Entity (Shiva). There is only onefundamental difference between Shiva and jiiva(Supreme Entity and unit entity): Shiva is free frombondage whereas jiiva is chained by the shackles ofbondage. Who wants to live in bondage? No-one.

Everyone wants to attain freedom, to be liberated from all sorts of bondages. Humanbeings can be liberated from certain bondages temporarily, but after a while those

bondages will again return. This situation can be compared to a bird which is released fromits cage and allowed to fly around a large room for a while, but after sometime is againconfined to the same cage. - - Shrii Shrii Anandamurti
