Blissful ignorance is Divinity. Only in a state of Bekhudi or selflessness, you can reach the stage of Enlightenment, called, “Turia Avastha”. Buddha never felt that he had attained Satori or Enlightenment. It became integral to his mystic consciousness. Any effort to expedite the process of enlightenment is futile.
In Ramz-e-bekhudi, Allama Iqbal says, “Spirituality is not something mundane to attain, the way we put all our efforts to achieving an object in life. It appears like a bolt from the blue when you least expected it.”
Conscious endeavour cannot lead a seeker to his spiritual destination. Nor is the life style of a monk assurance of achieving the state of perpetual bliss. The moment the mind becomes free of desire or wish or expectations, or attachments, a divine consciousness descends.
Christ was a carpenter’s son, Muhammad was reportedly unlettered, Moses was adopted and he was reportedly illiterate. “God finds His own ways through unconscious and unpretentious people. Because Divinity resides in a blissfully unaware mind.” Tagore wrote in Gitanjali.
Our Sai Jiwatsingh has demonstrated that the guru “accepted” him and he got Darshan only when he totally forgot about himself, and remembered only Him, and that too not consciously, and began to feel himself also as part of Him, rather than a separate identity. Thus, only in Bekhudi does one get Khuda (God).
