Indian Spiritual Gurus (Twentieth Century)

 
M L Ahuja (Author)
Synopsis Despite modern advances in the physical sciences, most of the people remain unhappy. Materialistic approach to life is undoubtedly associated with tensions, distraction, deviation and friction in Family life leading to a large number of crimes in society and broken marriages. To overcome this malady, an individual has to be studied in depth. On the other hand, each soul is potentially divine. For peaceful co-existence, the goal is to manifest this divinity or spirituality within us by controlling nature, external and internal. According to Vedanta, the three streams of energy- physical science, the science of values and the science of spirituality- must get synergized for human fulfillment. All this needs the proper guidance of spiritual gurus. Fortunately, Indian scriptures are the repositories of values, which can illuminate path to the erring humanity. They contain words of wisdom that guide the life and activities of human beings. They point towards the common medium of divine eye for direct and instant perception of God but they themselves cannot give us this. It is the divine eye, an enlightened person or true guru that remind us of the proper path we have to tread for god realization. Erudite scholars and spiritual masters have interpreted and re-interpreted the scriptures in the context of the prevailing circumstances to bring in transformation among the people. True happiness, in fact, lies in spirituality if taught by a preceptor or enlightened person. The enlightened person can be a sage, sadguru or spiritual guru who can cause a proper shift in our perceptions or consciousness. In fact, the proper spiritual guru alone can guide mankind. Almost all the spiritual gurus have emphasized that equanimity and equipoise of mind are the basic ingredients for happiness in life. The book, Indian Spiritual Gurus: Nineteenth Century, provides an exposition of the lives and teachings of 21 great masters, spiritual gurus and yogis who were born during the nineteenth century and have been instrumental in transforming the perceptions of millions of people within and outside India.
