Refuge for All is a discourse given by Shrii Shrii Anandamurti. This discourse is the fifth chapter of Ananda Vacanamrtam Part 1.[1]
Synopsis
Anandamurti begins this chapter mentioning a Sanskrit verse—[1]
| Roman script | Translation |
|---|---|
| Api cet sudurácáro bhajate mámananyabhák; So’pi pápavinirmuktah mucyate bhavabandhanát. |
If even the most wicked people worship Me with a concentrated mind, I will liberate them from the three bondages (physical, psychic and spiritual). |
Then Anandamurti defines a durácárii and a sudurácárii. A durácárii is one whose action tells upon society, one whose conduct is harmful to others. One who is called durácárii by another durácárii is a sudurácárii.
Anandamurti, then, mentions another Sanskrit verse, that means—[1]
If, leaving every thing, a sudurácárii takes refuge in Me [the Lord] and meditates only on Me without any second thought, his saḿskáras [mental reactive momenta] shall also be finished and he shall be freed from all sins.” One who sings My name and takes shelter in Me single-mindedly gets liberated.
Anandamurti, now, explains the above-mentioned verse and says that there is no one who has no future. Parama Purusa is everyone's closest friend and no one is alone.[1]
