How do you SEE what you see?
Mahacharya shri sourabh J sarkar was on Behtar Yatra with his KarmYogi team. This time he was guiding school students towards a Behtar Life. During his tour, he learnt about the famous Tryambakeshwar temple in the vicinity which he wanted to explore. His camera lead Sanchita was ecstatic about the ‘darshan’. So reaching the temple, he casually threw question at Sanchita- What is Darshan? How do you see what you see?
What was lingering as a question…was put to rest by the Man himself, at today’s satsang… Read on….
‘Darshan’ or the act of seeing….is a yogic phenomenon. The entire universe is conceived…perceived and grasped first by the primary act of ‘Darshan’. From the idol atop the mountains, to meeting your best friend…to the latest Sharukh flick and even the latest budget update…the act of engaging with everything around, is first through the primary act of seeing (Darshan). But …How do you see what you see?
In a world of convenient blur…
How do you clearly see?
HOW DO YOU SEE,
WHAT YOU SEE?
He explained, To SEE what we see, the parameters of Darshan must be worthy of the act.
“Darshan is the culmination of the three ‘D’s- Drashta, Drishya, Drishti.
Drashta is the beholder, the subject, the ‘purush’, or the one who ‘sees’.
Drishya is the sight, the object, the prakriti or what is ‘seen’
Drishti is what we call in hindi the ‘niyat’ or the ‘nazariya’”
It is important for the Drashta to develop a healthy ‘Tann’ ‘Praan’ ‘Mann’ ‘Chit’ to participate in the act. The Drishya to be nurtured in the lines of ‘Satyam’ ‘Shubham’ ‘Sundaram’ and Drishti to be aligned with the intent of the action. When this happens then…

“The blur un-blurs…
To reveal a world…
You have seen…
Yet not seen before”
