Completing my earlier post on the Flute , now i shall discuss how all of us can try to hear the music of the LORD'S Flute .
# As we know that the bamboo goes through rigorous stages when the holes are made in the piece of wood , in the same way we all have to go through hardships ( the tests ) of GYAN / KARMA/ BHAKTI YOG to attain this blissful state .
We have to become hollow from inside ( leaving our ego ) , so that the LORD can take us and play music through us ( our soul ) .
We should remember to leave every negative emotions behind . Because if we continue with hatred , anger , jealousy , ego --- then our soul will not be useful for HIS purpose ( to play through our soul/being ) .
With each different hole of a flute , an unique sound comes out . In the same way as we keep on leaving all the worldly desires one by one and cross the tests of the chosen path ( GYAN/ KARMA/BHAKTI YOG ) , each time a different level ( musical note ) is achieved . Thus through all the different sounds which come from our soul , together they form a STATE OF BLISS .
Only RADHARANI could hear the sound of HIS Flute clearly because of her whole-hearted attention for the LORD . We should consider her as our ideal and try to leave everything behind for the love of the LORD . Only then there is a chance for us to experience HIS magical Flute ( that too -- only with HIS blessings ) .
# According to some beliefs -- the 7 holes in the Flute signify the ' 5 sense organs , the mind/heart/emotion and the intellect/brain' in us .( Ego is also included in the mind and intellect ) . To hear the Flute , we have to attain absolute control over all these 7 elements of our body .
Another theory says that the 7 holes of the Flute signify the 7 SHAKTI CHAKRAS in our body . If only we can make them awake , then only HIS Flute can be heard by us .
# When we meditate sincerely on our essential nature , then without any external source , sometimes a subtle sound may be heard by us . It is called the ANAHAT ( which means the vibration of 'prana ' through nerve channels -- the brain identifies it as a sound ) . More contemplating on this sound may help us to move nearer to HIM and listen to HIS blissful flute .
So these are the different paths which we can take to experience that sweet invitation of LOVE made by HIS Flute . Here I have tried to explain the glory of the LORD'S Flute according to my limited capacity ( given by HIM ) . HE wants all of us to become HIS Flute , so that HE can play through us and give us a taste of that BLISSFUL ECSTASY .
MAY HIS LOVE SHOWER ON ALL OF US .
With best wishes
Dpriya .
