2.Asaran Bhavana
“Asaran”- means no-sheltor or no-protection.No jeev or soul can be saved from death by anybody or any means.One has to die and leave this body one day- and this is unavoidable truth.
“Samrat mahabal senani uss kshan ko taal sakega kya? Asaran mirth kaaya mai harshit nij-jeevan daal sakega kya?”
Sri Yugalji says that whether he may be a great, brave , warrior king,but can he avoid his death?Can he put back his life into his deadbody?
“Sur asur khagaadhip jetey,mrig jyon hari, kaal darey tein,
Mani mantra tantra bahu hoyee, martey na bachaavey koi”
Sri Daulatramji says that the kings of devtas i.e that is Indras, king of Asur-devtas,kings of birds and all of these, were killed by death just like a deer is killed by lion.And, no precious miraculous things like manis,various mantras or mystical verses etc were able to help them to avoid death.
No one can give you shelter or “saran” in this world.Only our self-soul is the only shelter or saran for us.
Lastly, Sri Bhudhardasji says “dal bal devi devta maat pitaa parivar, marti biriyaan jiv ko koi na raakhan haar”. He says that your parents, your relatives, your power, the gods and goddesses – no one can save you at the time of your death.You have to die, no one is your protector.!!!
So, Asaran bhavana tells us that we should not believe anybody as our shelter or protector in this world.We have to die one day and that our Self-soul is the only true shelter for us.
3.Sansar Bhavana:
Sansar means world in general. What is sansar ?
Combination or association of dravyas or substances is called as sansar.So this world is nothing but an association of all the 6 substances viz.soul, pudagal (matter and energy), dharma, adharm, akash and kaal.
Now why we have to think about this world? We have to do this to see the real nature of this world which is sorrowful and can never give us true happiness.In this sansar we that is the souls are roaming about from one birth to another due to our misconception and ignorance.
“Daam bina nirdhan dukhee, trishna vas dhanwaan,
Kahoon na such sansaar mai sab jag dekhyo chhan.”
Sri Bhudhardasji says that because of lack of wealth a poor is unhappy in this world, but a rich is also not happy here because he has greed for more and more and like this, he says, no one is happy in this world.This world cannot give us happiness.
“Chahun gati jeev bharey hai,parivaratan pachcha karey hai
Sab vidhi sansar asaaraa, yaa mai such naahi lagaara”
Sri Daulatramji says that in this sansar the souls are wandering in the 4 gatis or 4 gategories of states like as in heaven, hell, human beings and as animals etc.And, the souls are experiencing the 5 times of changes which are dravya, kshetra, kaal, bhaav,and bhay means substance,place,time,feeling or thought and life respectively.
But, in all these states the soul is getting sorrow only and there is not even a bit of happiness in this world or sansaar.So we should think this world as sorrowful and should divert ourselves towards our self-soul which is the real and eternal cause of joy foe us.
“Sansar mahadukh sagar ke prabhu dukhmay such abhaason mai
Mujhko na mila such kshan bhar bhi kanchan kaamini praasaadon mai.”
Sri Yugal ji says that that there were many instances in this world which were actually sorrowful but due to my ignorance they appeared to me as that of joy.But in all those things also like wealth and woman etc, I didn’t got a pinch of joy or true happiness even for a moment.
There is nothing in this world which can give a soul joy.Soul can get true joy only in the self-soul.
So, The Sanasr Bhavana tells us to see this world as sorrowful and try to get rid of this vicious cycle of birth and death which is making us to travel in this sorrowful world.
