Receiving
the Divine Love
Maharajji Kripalu writes that the last of the seven
steps to God realization is receiving: receiving the Divine
love of Radha Krishn with the Grace of a rasik Saint.
What happens when one receives the Divine
love?
Upon receiving the Divine love of Radha Rani, the devotee
sings joyfully. Maharajji
Kripalu describes the experience thus: One finds
the supreme Divine without any effort. Through the
practices of gyan, yog, worship, renunciation,
rituals, devoutness, meditation, and austerity I
learned to give up needless intellectual pursuits.
When I did this, the Saints saw my humble condition
and showed me the true path, much simpler than I had
believed it to be during my years of renunciation.
Like a poor man who has lost his sanity in the
excitement of finding the most precious paras (jewel),
I have become Divinely absorbed into the love of Radha
Rani. The most precious jewels are always gems of
knowledge.
