How Strange is Thy Grace, Vichithra Roopa stava Khalu Anugraha !
Kuchela, when he returned home, could not believe what he saw. Instead of that impoverished hut of his, there stood a Palace, festooned in gold !
It is naural, he reckoned. Doesnt His Grace make the lame walk and the dumb speak, Mookam karothi vachalam / pangum lankhayate Girim ? Grace is limitless Insurance, Grace is infinite Security !
How Strange is Thy Grace !
The Clash of Bhakti & Jnana Yogas
These two clash like this.
Once, a devotee was singing Tvameva Mata ch Pita Tvam eva, Thou Art the Mother as well as Father before Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi. The Maharshi chided him this ” There is no Thee, there is nothing but ” implying pure Advaita Vedanta Sastra. Being as Being is Absolute , which implies that Thou Art That, I AM tHAT and the whole Universe is That !
Thou Ar the Father and Mother,
Thou Art the Relative as well as the Consort
Thou Art Wisdom as well as Wealth
Thou art ALLl in All, My ALL !
Thvam eav Mata cha Pita Tvam eva
Thvam eva Bandhuscha Sakha Tvam eva.
Tvam eva Vidya Dravinam Tvam eva,
THvameva sarvam mAma Deva deva
