Ardhanarishwara

Hi again,
now..about ardhanarishwara...The concept was amazing.. so perfect..a dynamic equilibrium..but how did this fit into abhhaya ?...i din't get it at first , but just a few days before the penang show, i began to understand. One of the most obvious problems we face in life arises from the tension of opposites. Most of the time in life, actually almost from the simplest of activities right up to the big descisions that affect our lives,we have to make a choices. For some actions, our minds have already been conditioned a certain way and so there is no big struggle to make a descision...we automatically make up our minds. But for other things there is always and internal struggle between the opposite choices that we face. Right or wrong ? , This or That ? Blue or Green, Medicine or
Dance ? TFA or home ? I feel attracted to this person..should i tell the person or not ? Will that person like me in return or not ? What to do !!! It all ends up in one huge confusion. Where does the conflict come from ? It is the fear of ending up with a negative result which in turn causes more fear. Basically fear of fear.

When the mind itself is split into two parts, how can it merge with the soul ? So Lord Shiva says 'I am the union of these two opposites, meditate and surrender unto Me and I shall reconcile you.' So when we meditate and be in touch with that Ardhnarishwara,Everything becomes one..there are no opposites...if we alllow his grace to flow through..there will be no more negative results for He will bestow upon you the knowledge and conviction that everything is for your own good and that He is looking after you..there is no need to fear...just forget all your complexes and contemplate and commune with HIM..just like how swamiji says..'take off your garments and just stand in front of the sun and absorb all the energy and vitamin....'. So..in this way Lord Shiva Grants ABHAYA. I have learnt from this production that all we have to go on doing is just forget these complexes that we have..just go on communing with our GURUS and with SWAMIJI and with GOD in whatever form we perceive HIM because that is the understanding heart..when we just forget about about our ego and commune with others around us...there is no more conflict and all is JOY.
Sounds really ideal but i think that's the purpose for which I have been put into TFA and to learn from all the great masters that teach here..the glory goes to them..Thank you for making me grow..It is all your grace. Swamiji's grace.

Madman.
