True significance of - RAKSHA BANDHAN - The Eternal Bond
Do we ever stop to marvel at the magic of love? They say, love is as delicate as a flower that a single touch can bruise it, and yet so strong as to withstand all storms – purity makes love bloom and strengthens it for all time. Love born out of Purity, begets faith and security; this is undoubtedly the strongest energy force we can possess today. Real Love knows no limitations nor nurtures any prejudice. Love is the epitome of freedom and power but only when grounded in Purity and Spiritual principles. The Festival of Raksha Bandhan (Bond of Protection) speaks of this Sacred, Loving relationship that nurtures, protects and uplifts.
one is where the devtas (deities) are said to have lost their heavenly kingdom to the asuras (devils). Before he sets out for war to regain the lost sovereignty, Lord Indra's (King of the Devtas) wife applies tilak of victory on his forehead and ties him a rakhi. In due time, the deities gain victory and return to heaven.
Wouldn't God - our Beloved Supreme Parent, True Teacher, Sat Guru - be a more effective and loyal Protector than a human being? The Rakhi is undoubtedly the only bondage that truly frees us from all other bondages – all insecurities, fear, sorrow… And it is God alone who can share the wisdom behind tying the sacred Rakhi , i.e. taking a vow…
Having forgotten our true identity of being an infinitesimal point of divine energy – Soul, Atma, Ruha, Spirit – we got entangled in the bondage of 'BODY-CONSCIOUSNESS' and the web of the vices (lust, anger, greed, attachment and ego). These enemies overpowered us and influenced us to perform negative actions, which in turn caused sorrow. God comes at the fag end of Kaliyuga, to awaken and enlighten the inner being, and He teaches us how to regain our lost sovereignty.
When the tilak of 'SOUL-CONSCIOUSNESS' is applied, and I 'tie' the sacred thread, i.e. take the pledge to stay in my original nature of peace, love, purity, wisdom, mercy… my every thought, word and action becomes elevated and divine. I see every other being as a child of God and part of my spiritual family. This unlimited vision of brotherhood breaks all barriers of caste, creed, age, gender, religion, socio-economic status, sanskars (personality traits)…. I then can live by my TRUE SELF-RESPECT and help others to do the same.
The more I purify my consciousness, the stronger is my connection with God. God is then bound to look after me; and my positive actions ensure that I receive His blessings and good wishes from all souls… my global family… and these then work as my protection and stay with me forever.
'Pavitrata, Sukh-Shanti ki jananee hai' (Purity is the Mother of Peace and Happiness) and so, let us bind ourselves in this Spiritual Bandhan. One small promise of love and purity on our side will bind God, The Almighty Authority, for eternity…
Isn't it time to see God work the magic of True Love…?
