Individual Experiences and Naam Smaran

It is said that the Almighty resides in each and every particle of this world, whether conscious or unconscious. So it is not about some place or some material that you will have to look for, to find God. Keep faith and you will see him in anything and anywhere. We had gone to Kardalivanam with such a faith in our hearts and we felt his presence there. In short in Marathi Language, we say it viz -"Jithe Bhav, Tithe Dev". It means " where there is faith, there is God".

Everybody started preparations for the journey like preparing food items, medical kits etc. But after all it was already arranged there in Kardalivanam prior to our visit. All enjoyed trekking in the forest among hills. It was a memorable experience. Some of us not being regular trekkers, it was a big question how will they walk around some 16 kms. But everything happened smoothly and the whole journey made everybody physically and mentally fresh, which we don't feel while living in cities. Journey like this makes us aware of the challenges and a life beyond city life..

Each one of us got different experiences during the journey, but to summarize, they all point to a common fact that He wanted us to be there for something worth, something great. And we got it now.
So everybody wants to go back there again and again.

What better than this can happen to one, when you are on the way of purity and you get to know that chanting Sadguru's name (Naam Smaran) is Supreme Mantra of Life. By Naam Smaran, one of us got through her fear and the other instead of chanting a single God's name, chanted a whole list of them and to the surprise, all of them visited us in some or the other forms as realized. Again matters of realization!!! This led everybody now to the easiest of the paths of attaining God - Naam Smaran. Even after the journey, when we are back to our city life, we can't forget to chant. And that's what is the result of faith. We went to look for Sadguru, we got him there and took him back with us, inside of us here at our homes. Where is Kardalivanam and where is home? Who is Sadguru and who is God?? It is all The One. "Jithe Bhav, Tithe Dev."
