Cause and effect are main causes of illusion. Guru takes you beyond cause and effect. Cause and effect are endless. In relationships, it is foolish to go on thinking about cause and effect. Be at ease, that is reposing the Self.
~ Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji
Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji’s words offer a profound insight into the nature of illusion and relationships. He highlights that cause and effect are the main causes of illusion, perpetuating a cycle of karma and rebirth (samsara).
By transcending this cycle, a Guru guides us beyond the limitations of cause and effect, liberating us from the bondage of karma. In relationships, this means letting go of the need to analyze and judge, instead embracing ease, peace, and repose in the Self (Atman).
This wisdom aligns with the principles of yoga, bhakti, and self-realization, encouraging us to recognize our true essence, which is Absolute, Indivisible, Eternal, Infinite, and full of Absolute Knowledge, Power, Energy, and Peace.
May we all seek guidance from our Gurus and cultivate a deeper understanding of the true nature of reality, leading to more harmonious relationships and ultimate liberation (Moksha).
