In order to get the elixir
of immortality, the Amrut – you have to first drink the poison. Amrut is always
hidden in the veneer of Poison. There is no one on this planet who does not
want Amrut. Both Asura and Deva have the common goal – Amrut. But the Amrut is
hidden in the deep layer of the ocean. To get the Amrut out, the ocean must be churned
out.
The first time, Deva and Asura worked together for the common goal – that is
– Amrut. They put their diligent effort. They worked as an ideal team for that
purpose.
You may have differences,
but if there is a common goal, and both parties are getting benefit from that, without
any alternative, you have to work as an ideal team; you have to give your 100%
to achieve the common goal. The same thing was being done by Deva and Asura.
They both wanted Amrut, but that was not possible without churning the ocean. They
knew it, and hence they started churning the ocean.
During the churning, the
first thing came out was Halahal, the poison, and the last thing came out was
Amrut. Everybody was frightened by seeing the devouring poison. Nobody had any
idea what to do. They were not prepared for that. Everybody looks for Amrut,
and they try for that also, but very few people prepare themselves to confront
the emergence of the poison during that process.
Poison takes life and Amrut
makes life immortal. Both are opposite. The first thing comes out is poison, if you can handle the poison only then you
would be eligible for Amrut. There is no way to reach directly to the Amrut
without passing the path of poisons. There is no way to consume Amrut without
consuming and digesting poison first. This is the truth of life.
To proceed further, the
emerged poison must be consumed and digested first. Lord Shiva was found
suitable for that work. He consumed the poison in order to allow Deva and Asura
to continue their search for the Amrut. Lord Shiva kept the poison in his neck,
equi-distance from the heart and mind. In
this way, that devouring poison could not harm Lord Shiva.
They continued churning the
ocean. During that process, they got many valuable treasures. Those were
distributed among them without any issue. They did not stop there. They kept
churning the ocean until they got Amrut, their ultimate goal.
If you have some great goal
in your life like Amrut, which is going to make you immortal, then you must be
ready for the poison occurring during that process. Immortality does not mean
your physical immortality. It means – your name would remain immortal even after your physical demise due to your deeds
and great goal you have achieved in your life.
This world is a material ocean when you start churning this ocean for
achieving your set great goal, the first thing you will get a lot of
predicament and opposition. That would make your next step difficult, sometimes impossible. You will be frightened. You
will lose your focus from your set goal. You may have to confront jealousy,
hatred and even mental and physical attack on you from your oppositions. These
are the poison which will try to demolish your existence. You must be ready and well prepared for that
kind of poison even before taking the first
step towards your set great goal.
You have to consume and
digest those poisons like Lord Shiva who never allowed the poison to reach his
head or heart. He kept the poison at equi-distance
from his head and heart. You consume those poisons of opposition and predicament,
but never allow reaching either to your head or heart and spoil your motive.
You have to keep those at equi-distance
from your head and heart.
You will get positive and
negative emotions at the same time. Make sure they should not fight to each
other in your head and spoil your motive rather allow them to work as a team for your goal as Deva and Asura did
despite their diagonal differences.
Do not stop in between by
getting something valuable. Keep working until you achieve your final goal
which will create a history and make you immoral in this mortal world.
