Manmana Bhava

Manmana Bhava is a very important message. It is said 'One must remember Alif and make as many people remember Alif '. This is considered our topmost obligation and in a lighter vein was called the wholesale business, everything else being retail. By remembering Alif  i.e. Paramatma constantly, one fills up the consciousness with positivity, and then by convincing others of its value you prepare a strong reservoir to protect it from leakages. And yet, as you know Maya has her own ways of making inroads to see that there are leakages. Maya is known to be all negativity. The primary channel she uses is our own negative thinking, consisting of  regrets of past suffering, burden of present responsibilities and anxiety for the future. As we know well that there is no way to control these to any great extent, because we are committed to our role in the world drama. The other channel of her's is also our weaknesses like Kama, Krodha, Moha etc. Only by building a strong  Positive Reservoir through process of  Manmana Bhava can we win the battle against Maya. We will discuss this in detail later, but meantime it will be worthwhile if you contemplate on this subject.
