________________ she starts becoming more and more like HIM. A unique source of inspiration awakens within her. As this inspiration grows, so does her love for the Lord and as the love grows, the inspiration increases too. This cycle of love and inspiration keeps escalating and strengthening with the passage of time. Chandanbala's love for the Lord keeps growing deeper and deeper. She only wants to worship him. She is uninterested in anything or anyone accept Parmatma. What is the reason for her becoming one with the Lord ? Why is she inspired to follow his footsteps, to distance herself from worldly matters? Why is it that we do not have such feelings and desires ? Either our love for Parmatma is incomplete or we are not strongly inspired. We are either lacking in our love or in our dedication... It is the universal law of divine love that if someone loves deeply and truly without any desire or expectations, then inspiration is bound to arise. If the percentage of love is less then source of inspiration, the bond is likely to be weak. Chandanbala's love is divine, thus her inspiration is resilient. It is said that each soul is bounded by the karmas of seventy krodakrodi sagaropam (millions of years). Due to the obstructions of these karmas, we are unable to realize the truth. At times, we do experience real truth, but this only lasts for a short while. We again slip into illusion due to the effect of the obstructive karmas. How can one negate these karmas ? What did Chandanbala do ? How was she successful in reaching the Lord by cutting through the obstructions of her karmas? It is said that, the more intense the dedication and inspiration, that much easily it can burn the obstacles of karma. = 44 -
