As said by Vedas, what ever we see the whole universe around us is real. And it is beautiful. Shape of every object, it is of Supreme personality of godhead. When the Supreme personality is every thing and when he is ours, then is there any thing in this world which is not related to us. There is no object which is bad. There is nothing like some are related to us and some are not.
Hiranyakashapu called his son Prahlada and asked, I heard that you are doing well in your studies. Prahlada replied what I can tell you please ask. Then King Hiranyakashapu said “we are the rulers of the kingdom, so definitely we will have some Friends and Enemies. Please can you tell me how you should behave with them”. “What ever you learnt, that can address this, please tell to me”. Then Prahlada replied, “Oh Father! Your question it self is wrong”. What ever I learn from Vedas, tell Supreme personality of godhead is “sarvabu:tha:thmake: jaganna:the: jaganmaye: parama:thmani go:vinde:“, then from where the question of friends and enemies coming? “mithra amithra katha: kuthaha tha:tha:”. ? Supreme personality of godhead is “sarvabu:tha:thmake:” the one who is pervading in all the bu:thams. Bu:thams mean, what ever the object which has some existence. Not the Question of whether it is living being or not. Every object comes under category of bu:tham. This is one of his divine qualities, called Kalyana gunas. Not only pervading every where but also “jaganna:the:” he also can feel that every being in the universe is his property. Also he need not sit at one place, he is “jaganmaye:” the universe. What he does? “parama:thmani” can control and support every being. Every element has its own shape because he is there inside it. If he is so great, will he listens to us. No doubt he is “go:vinde:”, what ever way you call he can listen you. That’s why He has names “shabdha:thigaha” and “shabdhasahaha” which mean he can’t be found by any sound but he can be found by sound. Both names look contradictory. This mean, the De:vatha:s like four headed Brahma who learnt every sha:sthra, cant tell what is supreme personality of godhead by his words. What ever described by them will be small droplet of the ocean. Then doubt arrives, why to call such a great personality when we are not capable of calling him. We don’t have to worry, he is very accessible to a ordinary beings like us, with what ever sound we call him, he will respond to us. Once up on a time An Elephant cried for him, he protected it as said by Bha:gavatha. As per the poet, can elephant sing when it is in trouble of life and death? What maximum it can do? It might have rumbled. Just made a huge sound, with feeling that who ever can capable of protecting it can do some thing. He made him self accessible to such sound as well. Dhraupathi called him with faith, he protected her all the time of her toubles. He just sees if we have faith or not, there is no bound how we call him, does not check rules and regulations. When such a supreme personality of godhead is there, so where is the question of friends and enemies coming? Can’t we see the objects with quite opposite properties living together? Can’t we see sensitive tongue living together with the hard teeth? As both of them are controlled by same soul there is no problem, in the same manner whole universe is under control of same Supreme personality Srimanna:ra:yana. That’s why Prahlada said his father that there is no chance of differentiating some as enemies and some as Friends.
Every object under the manifestation of Supreme personality of godhead is good. Only thing is all have to be in its place and order. Then there is no problem. Then there is no beauty other than this. That’s why whole Universe is Beautiful. What we need is the Eyes that can see in this manner. If we can see in such manner then those eyes are called beautiful Eyes. He has given us eyes, but we need to know how to use them. Need to habituate to see in this manner. We need some one who can teach us this. In order to favor us the same incarnation of “Bhagavath Rama:nuja:cha:rya” took place. Many people could not see the Universe in its actual form. They started telling, “The whole universe is just like a Bobble, just does not exist in reality. Only few things are related to us, not every thing”. What can we do, some felt like that. But Rama:nuja:cha:rya proved every being around us is real and beautiful, because whole universe is pervaded by the same Supreme personality. So there is no question of some thing which is not related to us. He showed the reality and presented beautiful eyes to every one.
We love some one means; we love the person in totality, but not just some part of the body. Not knowing this, a person called Danurdas used to love his wife’s eyes. Danurdas was a body builder during Rama:nuja:cha:rya’s period of time. Once there was some festival happening at the temple of Srirangam. Rama:nuja:cha:rya saw some one holding umbrella to some lady, whole the crowd is laughing at him. Rama:nuja:cha:rya called him and asked, why are you doing like this, when every one laughing. He replied I want to take care of my loved one. Then Rama:nuja:cha:rya asked what you love about your wife. He said there is no beauty in this world better than her eyes. That’s why I am protecting her eyes from sun rays, which may harm. Rama:nuja:cha:rya felt very happy about him, as he is a being if he believes that some thing is beautiful, he surrenders to it completely. That’s great quality. We see many people around us who express love just in talk, but not in action. There is a story; a Pope was suffering from Health problem. His kidneys were damaged. All the people in the village came to donate their kidney for him. Now another problem started for Pope, whose kidney he has to accept. Certainly he can’t make every one happy, he just need one. He decided to select one among them randomly. He went to the top of the building and dropped a bird feather. On whom it falls, he can take kidney from him. Every one started blowing the feather, so that it won’t fall on them. This is reality of the love shown by most of the people. Is it called love? Love means, King Dasharatha died in the next second after he came to know news from his minister Sumanthra that Rama is not coming back from forest. After Rama left him, Dasharatha told his wife Kaushalya, that his vision went along with Rama, he could not able to see any thing afterwards. Love means that. Dasharatha did not do any attempt to kill him self. Love means like a relation between Sun and Rays. There is no existence of rays when sun is not there. Rama:nuja:cha:rya liked the good quality of Danurdas, and told him that he can show most beautiful eyes, and told to meet again on next day. Next day Morning Rama:nuja:cha:rya took him inside Srirangam temple and showed the eyes of Lord Sriranganatha. After looking at Lord’s Eyes Dhanurdasa realised the beauty of Lord. Afterwards Danurdas and his wife dedicated their rest of the life under service of Lord. Rama:nuja:charya was such a capable person to show the reality. He presented the beautiful eyes to every one how to see the Universe. Only lack is our ignorance of knowing about our acha:rya, the great scholar “Rama:nuja:cha:rya”. If we found his grace, then there is no doubt that we are saved out of sufferings of Samsara.
