Sanaatana Saaradaa~18 – Dynamics of Divine Form – 3
While discussing the importance of the faculty of seeing, we understood the inner meaning of the supreme significance of making intelligent use of seeing by which one should be able to obtain the best as such a successful endeavour brings about the ultimate spiritual actualisation in one’s life. The cent per cent positive outcome is practically and unmistakably manifest in the daily lives of the Gopis in the Bhaagavata. This is the positive lesson unequivocally demonstrated in that text to inspire the devout devotees to consummate their devotion for their beloved Lord.
In the Bhaagavata itself, there is a great lesson that substantiates the negative impact or force of the seeing faculty when it is used improperly either wantonly or otherwise through the life-story of Ajaamila. By birth, education,family-background, initial individual culture and so many other telling constituents of life, Ajaamila is immaculate in every sense. Only a casual, single and singular indecent incident of obnoxious proportions of the cohabitation of uncouth man and woman in a forest during daytime, blows into bits the clean character of Ajaamila and degrades him to become a personification of wickedness in its fullness.
With these two illustrious narrations of the Bhaagavata, the choice and the pathway are, both positively and negatively, crystal-clear to us. So, let us always focus all our seeing faculty very attentively and alertly on the form and visual exploits of our Lord Sri Krishna.

అగపడునదెల్ల అతడే
అగుపింపగ చేయునదియు అతడే సుమ్మీ!
మిగిలిన చూపరి అతడే
భగవంతుడె భానుమతియు బాలాంత్రపు రే!
The contrast between Ajaamila and the Gopikaas in exploiting their seeing faculty is a good example to illustrate the importance of one’s insight. This lesson on
Divine form guides us not see things simply in their physical form only.
The importance of the seeing faculty is made clear by citing Gopikas and Ajaamala in Bhagavatam as examples. The message that one should be alert in choosing the best path of concentrating on the Divine form is conveyed in a crystal clear way by you.
