Jibankrishna stated: “God -the -Preceptor assumes human form, appears before you, blesses you and says, ‘you will attain God-head’. God in the body takes this unknown or by-gone human form, selects you as a bridegroom, in other words makes your body a playground for his blissful and joyous sports.
He teaches you the whole course of ‘Rajyago’, the emanation and transformation of God through the five sheaths or the seventh planes into the Supreme Bliss.
Sri RamKrishna says, ‘Without the bliss of God – the – Preceptor, there cannot be any upward progress’. This upward progress means the upward motion of the life power in a man, that is, waking of life power and her march in the seventh plane. “Without the attainment of God-the-Preceptor, the life power does not wake up. There cannot be any realizations without life power being wakened up.
The attainment of God-the-Preceptor is a kind of transformation into God – with – Form as God in the body assumes that form out of sheer mercy.”
Among various measures God-the-Preceptor expresses himself in the body as an unknown man as one of the measure, ‘Unknown man’ means the human form of God-the-Preceptor whom you did not see before; but afterwards you will be coming to know everything about him.
About divine dreams
Diamond stated about divine dreams thus:
Both Chandogya and Brihadaranyaka Upanishads (Parts of Vedas) have dealt with divine dreams. They are of opinion that realizations and manifestations of God in dreams are purer and finer than the manifestations and realizations of God in an awakened condition of the body.
Joseph was engaged to interpret the dreams of the Pharao in Egypt.
God spoke to Moses, ‘Henceforth I won’t come and talk to you in person, but I will convey my command in dream’.
In Buddhism the arrival of Buddha in the world sprout out of a dream dreamt by Maya Devi, the mother of Buddha, who dreamt a white elephant, coming down from the heaven, entered her womb and in normal course Sri Buddha was born.
Sri Ram Krishna’s father in the present era also dreamt that ‘Raghubir’, the household deity, appeared and told him that he would take his birth as a son to him.
The Old Testament is full of divine dreams. Mohammed dreamt that he was carried in a chariot of seven horses to Heaven near Allah (God) and from him he received instructions and command.
God is in the inside of the human body. He, out of mercy to man, manifests himself in words within the man and thereby he makes him his own chosen man through the words and becomes his guardian and preceptor.
Somehow or other, to see God and to realize his sportive forms in dreams was a lost chapter. Sri Ramkrishna has again given life to it (in the nineteenth century) and established it.
Susupti is profound sleep. At the outset, as well as at the end of sleep, realisations appear, but neither during the sleep, nor in the full awakened condition. Such realizations are reckoned as realizations in Susupti or profound sleep.
In all the four states of life, viz: (1) Waking, (2) Dreams, (3) Profound sleep or Susupti and (4) Turiya or supreme conscious existence, there are different realizations of God’s sportive forms in the body.
There are some lucky fellows who see God in all these four states of life.
Some again see the sportive forms of God in the three states: (1) Waking, (2) Dreams and (3) Profound sleep.
There are some who see God in the two Conditions : (1) Waking and (2) Dreams.
Some again see God and his sportive forms in dreams only.
In dreams they get their body purified; their thinking and feeling purified; they gey their god-the-preceptor; they see God’s light; they get themselves transformed into God and finally they see the descent of God assuming the form of a man in them. But all these happenings come to pass through sheer grace of God.
