Sri Jnanadeva's Amrtanubhava with Cangadeva Pasasti

 
Ramchandra Keshav Bhagwat (Author)
Synopsis 'The world of words which can talk about us has yet to come into existence' (Amrtanubhava, VIII. 5) thus said Jnanadeva because it is very difficult for words to convey appropriately the experience of the saints when they attain the state of liberation. In that state when the individual merges into the Absolute then 'of what use is the legion of words?' (V. 62). As soon as the words issue forth before their meanings follow in their wake, they disappear like the picture of a fish drawn on the water surface (X. 17); inspite of the handicaps, Jnanadeva ventured to describe his own ambrosial experience of the Supreme Reality, for he derived unique pleasure in doing so (X. 13). Secondly, he felt that giving vent to his experience in words would serve as a good remembrancer to self and posterity. (V. 6). Through his work he thought of clearing the debt of speech (i.e. energy creating sound waves) by reaching the people and enlightening them. While doing so however, he does not take any credit to self. He attributes his success in the composition of this work to the grace of his preceptor Shri Nivrittinatha.
