REV BABUJI MAHARAJ THE ETERNAL MASTER  

  

- Pujya K.C. Narayana

All of us are aware of the spiritual good that has accrued to us by following the system of Rajayoga as propounded by our revered Master Sri Ramachandra. The moments of laya that we experience in our sadhana every day is such as was not available for much more dedicated persons following other paths. This we have been told and we know, is due to the grace of the Master experienced by us as Pranahuti. We also know that Pranahuti is not simply an act of will on the part of the trainer and it is something that is backed by the support of the Master. The question that has been nagging most of the sadhakas is where from this support comes and is there no need for a physically present person, whom one may likely call the Living Master.

This aspect was argued so much by so many persons that it has been settled that some say there is need for such a Master and others say that there is no such need. Arguments can be hot and hottened but the answer seems to be elusive for many.

For exercising Will there is need for a human mind and there can be no question about it. This role the trainers (called prefects and preceptors elsewhere) satisfactorily play. The question is about the support of the will of the Master or the Divine. Rev. Babuji Maharaj has very deftly played a miracle and allowed the discerning sadhakas (i.e. those who have developed proper Viveka) to know for themselves while he opted to be silent. The fact that from almost August, '82 to April, '83 he was in deep coma is known to all. It is also known to all that during this period when he laid himself at rest, literally, none of the sadhakas felt his absence and every one was getting Pranahuti according to his need and the trainers were not having any difficulty in performing their tasks, because of the fact that the Master was not conscious. This is the greatest Miracle performed by the Great Master to show that His support is always there, whether he is conscious, sub conscious, or super conscious.

The basic tenet of Christianity is the resurrection of the Lord Christ after crucifixion. That was a phenomena that was personal to some and is not of general knowledge to all the followers of the Lord. There is no doubt about it, and the Lord wanted his disciples to know that he is divine by nature and is there as their succour and support to preach and propagate the system based on Love of God.

However, with the advent of the Special Personality in 1944 all earlier Prophets and messengers of God have merged in Him and He is the Lord of the Day. The Special Personality has gone one step ahead of the Lord Christ and proved to all his disciples that He is there to support and grant succour to all of them, and all those who trust Him unquestioningly That he established the fact He can perform even when He was in Coma even earlier, i.e. in 1974 is known to all of us. Master himself wrote:

"I may just tell you an incident which happened during may recent illness. I was in the state of delirium. I transmitted with unique power and exactness to an abhyasi fully watching his condition and helped him to cross fifty eight points within a few minutes. I was transmitting to my other brothers of the Mission also. I answered to a few questions of abhyasis too - and, I was told after my recovery, that they were to their fullest satisfaction. It is not very difficult; clean your subconscious mind to grasp the sense of discipline and the thing is there. At the same time, mark the efficacy and infallibility of our system that the work of Mission did not suffer at all".

-Message No.22 of Messages Universal p. 132-133.

There is the miracle and the message of the Master.

Spirituality is basically other than materialism. Body and its related adjectives are all material. To insist on the need for body and mind for work is alright so far as it is concerned with mortals like us. To insist that this is applicable to the Special Personality is only to degrade the status of that personality.

In this context, I leave it to the good sense of others to understand whether there is any need for a living Master.
