________________ Parmatma (Supreme Divine Soul) bestowed upon us 73 bols (commandments) to attain emancipation. The 1" commandment is Samveg- undeterred love for God and strong yearning for liberation. This commandment is of prime importance in this 5" era as it is impossible to attain salvation and be united with Parmatma, without longing for salvation. O Parmatma! What does the soul attain by Samveg? What exactly is Samveg? When Chandanbala saw Parmatma Mahavir, she could not remove her gaze from HIM. She kept on looking into his loving eyes and while gazing at HIM, she started yearning for Parmatma and finally, she experienced an ardent desire to become like Parmatma. That state, that vision, those feelings, those intentions are called Samveg bhaav (an ardent, undeterred yearning to attain salvation and be united with Parmatma). What is the pious definition of Samveg? The spiritual attraction of the soul towards the Divine Supreme soul and the ardent faith and worship that is generated due to this divine attraction is called Samveg. Param means The Supreme Being, the highest and the ultimate. Param means Dev Guru or an ideal person. Divine worship is impossible without constant divine yearning. That is called Samveg.
