I heard many love stories till now. Almost all of them have same set of ups and downs, excitement, feverishness, fear and romance! But some love story has very special quality. Specially the love for Guru/God/Self. These are few very rear conversations that I have heard between lovers. I was very lucky to witness the same during satsang in presence of gurudev.
A guy stands up in audience and tells Guruji "Guruji I just love the way you walk, talk, answer questions and all the fun and naughty things you do. I love you Guruji!" Guruji smiles - "Oooo.. You have no choice! (laughter) (after few sec of silence) You know all qualities you appreciate in me are inside you. Start appreciating them. It will grow!"
Another guy stood up in audience during same satsang and said "Guruji I do not have any question. I just want say (after a bit silence with shivering voice) I love you!." Guruji tells him in gesture "I love you too". He continue saying with even more shaky voice "I can't believe I have told you this! My whole body is shivering" Guruji smiles at him.
Another guy stood up and says.. "I have no idea why I start crying when I see you" Guruji said "Tears are obvious! When one see his beloved, tears rolls down. Knots in the heart opens up. In scriptures they say 2 signs of sadguru. (1) Tears rolls down when one see the guru (2) All questions disappear in the presence of Guru"
All those who have met Guruji have experienced both of the signs.
I experienced all kind of love, love for parents, friends, sisters, relationship, love for sweets, love for laptop. None of them could turn tears of misery into tears of gratitude for long term. None of them could make me realize that "I am that". All love put me away from my center. If there is any love in which difference of me and you disappears, its love of the Guru! Lucky are those who cry in this love ! Thanks for choosing me :-)
Love,
Neha
