Sri Sri Thakur about Mahatma Gandhi

Today is 2nd October, the birthday of that great freedom fighter of India who is also the Father of this Nation & whose sacrifices given for the freedom of India requires no introduction!! “Mahatma” the title which was conferred upon him by none other than the great poet and the first Nobel Prize lauterate Kabiguru Rabindranath Tagore was infact truly implies on Gandhiji or Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Bapu or the Mahatma!!!

Why on earth today I sat to write about this legendary personality was because in the past few days back certain incident happened in facebook which has shook me and my beliefs about the present day so-called devotees of Sri Sri Thakur from deep inside and which has forced me to think about the very basic criteria required to be a true disciple of our Gurudev Sri Sri Ramthakur and which has been described in Sri Guru Gita (which has been recommended by Guruji manytimes) as Mantra Moolam Gurum Vakyam (means the instructions or words spoken by the Holy Master or Guru is the basis of all Mantras)!!! The shlok is Dhyan Moolam Guru Murti means for meditation the form of Holy Master is the basis, Pooja Moolam Gurum Padam means for worshipping the holy feet of holy Master is the basis, Mantra Moolam Gurum Vakyam has been told aforesaid and Moksha Moolam Guru Kripa means for salvation the mercy of holy master is the basis!!! Now friends the question arise are we or the so-called self-acclaimed devotees or say the devotees who are always boasting about their devotions are following these instructions fully???? In my opinion, I don’t think so!! Whatever instructions have been given by our holy Master is not being followed properly and when in trouble would quite occassionly blame Him for all their problems!!!

Now coming to Mahatma Gandhi.. It has been found in many books of various devotees that while Gandhiji was being assassinated at New Delhi, Sri Sri Thakur on that very same day and same moment suddenly said as Gandhi Choila Gelen.. Gandhir Aar Jonmo Hoibo Na.. means Gandhi has left this mortal world and he would not take any more births!! Now the question arises that there were many other great and selfless freedom fighters fighting for the motherland at that moment who were being killed by the britishers very often but Gurudev why only talked about Gandhiji??? Why only him??? And not only talked about him also informed that he will not take anymore births!!! That means he has got salvation!!! At another place it has been found as Sri Sri Thakur while mentioning about Gandhiji has said as Gandhi to Poddo-Gandhi!!! Means Gandhi is just like a flower of lotus being in the mud of dirt is untouched by the dirt of this materialistic world!! But few days back I countered a female devotee who is dead against Gandhiji and hate him very much!! This devotee had earlier posted many controversial posts about the Mahatma which is nowadays very much being propagated in various internet sites by some negative minded people and after somedays shared a post of our Gurudev alongwith a writeup where there was a mention of Sri Sri Thakur’s words about Gandhiji!! I immediately countered her that this is contradictory to her earlier posts!!! This made her furious and she told me that she belong to the family of a very close devotee of Sri Sri Thakur who has been initiated by our Gurudev himself and who is her great grandfather and it was him only who has told her mother about various ill and misdeeds done by Gandhiji!! I told her that during my earlier days I was also very much confused about Gandhiji but the day I read what my holy Gurudev had told about him all my confusions have gone immediately and my perception & inner feeling for Gandhiji has become very very crystal clear!! We have very limited brain but our holy master knows everything and so I rely only & only upon Him for everything!! And moreover no devotee should indulge in finding faults of others as told by Guruji Na Loibe Karo Dosh Na Koribe Rosh Aponi Hoibe Shabdhan but that made her more furious and I understood very clearly that there is no point in arguing with this highly egoistic so-called devotee!!! this is what I experienced & I fear many of the young generation devotees must be having negative feelings about this great saint but I would suggest them all to remember the words spoken by our holy Gurudev about him!!! Rest I leave all up to you!!! Jai Ram!!!
