OM NAMAH SHIVAYA
The Ardha Narasherwar roop of Lord Shiva.
Is the embodiment of the Shiv and Shakti. The surrenderer and the conqueror, the feminine and the masculine, the giver and
the receiver. The unfathomed and the fathomable. The
need and the desire. The flow and the
obstruction. The see-er and the doer. The only aspect of the whole in all its power and
glory. The acceptance of all of you. The good and the evil the nice and the not so
nice aspects. The ones you claim as you and the ones you discard. The Swaroop
is the full embodiment of this aspect of
accepting all that you are. The rough
with the smooth and the fierce with the gentle.
When we do it, accept the wholeness of
ourselves, all aspects that make us. That is when we are one with the universe,
because in nature the hunter and the hunted coexist with out ever feeling I am
superior to the other, with out comparing their abilities and their skill sets.
Each is an unique creation and so play a part in the whole of creation. Each is
just that one tile which makes the whole picture beautiful. If even one tile is
missing we would look at that gap and wonder, what happened to that tile, was
it red, blue of some other color, how did it fit to complete the picture. One
tile missing brings in so much of enquiry, so many questions and so many
answers in the form of speculations.
Now seeing our lives we see so many tiles
missing from our pictures. No wonder we speculate so much, we ask so many
questions, we investigate where we are from and we need to go. But if we accept
that we have a lot of tiles missing and we will find those tiles with
confidence and belief, then the missing tiles don’t matter. We are on our
journey to discovering those tiles and those aspects which are missing within
us. We start on this journey of self discovery.
The discovery of the Shiv within us and the Shakti. The ‘poorna swaroop’
of ourselves.
Here’s hoping that this New Year 2013
brings us close to that whole we are searching for ourselves.
Happy New Year
