Message of Sri Adi Shankaracharya,

One night Sri Adi Shankaracharya,
the great Advaita master, was desperately searching for something on the street outside his small hut. When his pupil returned from his errand, he saw this and curiously asked the Master, “Aacharya, what are you looking for here on the street at this hour?”

Shankaracharya replied, “I lost my needle, I am looking for it.”

The pupil joined him in the search, but after searching for a while, he asked, “Can you try and recollect where you might have dropped it?”

Shankaracharya said, “Of course, I remember. I dropped it near the bed in the hut.”

The pupil, utterly astonished at the strange answer, said, “Aacharya, you say you lost it inside the house, then why are we looking for it outside?”

Shankaracharya innocently replied, “There is no oil left in the lamp, so it is pitch dark inside the house. Hence I thought of searching for it outside, since there is enough street light here.”

While holding back his laugh, the pupil said, “If you lost your needle inside the house, how could you even expect to find it outside?”

Shankaracharya simply smiled back at the pupil and the pupil got the message behind the acharya's puzzling act.

Isn't that what we do? We run to far away temples and walk up mountains to search for what we have lost inside ourselves. We are all seeking outside what we have lost inside us. Why? Just because it is pitch dark inside. Silly, aren’t we?!

Light the lamp inside you and find your lost treasure right therein.

His statement was contrary to his act.

Did he not visit so many places in search of God outside his home place Kaladi? It is said he died in Nepal while visiting Pasupathinath Temple. Can we presume that he visited so many places as he failed to find God inside?

Chandru Ji,

Thanks for your response.

I would like to share this.....

The Three sins of Sri Sri Sankara……

Sri Sri Sankara along with his disciples once visited Sri Vishwanatha Temple at Kasi. After taking bath in Ganga he headed straight to the temple. At the temple in front of Lord Vishwanatha, Sri Sri Sankara began to seek pardon to the three sins he had committed. His disciples were surprised and wondered what those sins could be for which Acharya was doing Prayaschitta (Atonement).

One of the disciples out of curiosity to know about the three sins that Acharya had committed asked Sri Sri Sankara about it. Sri Sri Sankara explained, “Though I believe that Absolute is Sarvavyapta(Omnipresent) and had expressed so in many of my works, I have come all the way to Kasinagara to have His darshana, as if He was present only in Kasinagara. I have committed the sin of saying one thing and doing the other. This is my first sin.

hi

every human beings born out of sin....as human beings.....we like it or not....we do sins...even no sanyasi is exempted from this....

knowing/unknowings sins are committed....becoz prakriti is dualism....nature is dualism...

Bala Sir,

Both your posts #4 & 6 are very apt..

I liked the comments of one reader to the speaking tree article " About 300 years ago, there was one Sufi Mystic poet named Shah Abdul Latif. He is the most respected Sindhi poet, among Muslims and Hindus as well. In those days Nath Jogis from Bengal used to travel to Hinglaj, which is a Devi Sthan in Sindh. Shah Latif came in touch with the Nath Jogis and said "When HE pervades every where, why are they going to Hinglaj?". Then after some time Shah Latif corrected himself and said " Yes! HE pervades every where; but they have seen HIM in Hinglaj". This thought is brought out in two very beautiful stanzas in Sindhi.
It is almost same as what Sri Sri Sankara said regarding his First Mistake.
What I am trying to say that leave aside geographic and religious boundaries; the thinking of enlightened persons is just the same"

Vganesh Ji,

I also read the comment. It was thought provoking.

Thanks

Quite different way of approach by the Andhra CM. His observation of temple donations are either to save people from trouble after committing sin or after being found themselves come short of funds people throng temples seeking relief is more than a realistic judgement. It is a fact that this huge money collected could come handy for funding many good schemes for overall welfare of the whole society. Well Government of course can bring in some rules like high value donations can only be collected through cheque etc and could be monitored regularly so that source of such huge donations could be found and perhaps reasons for such huge amount donations could also be revealed. That raises another question as well. Do we have statistics of earnings of other faiths as well? Are they also show a rising trend?

The usage of "Sri Sri" is patented to one who "arts"... is it not?

When there was (is) no needle, no lamp, no street, no hut, no bet.... what is the need to search?

This appears to be a good research.
