Greetings Sharat Sir n Sanjay Roy Sir,
Updating on my experiences further…(a long one though)
The continous references of Krishna continued and still continues…I still see so many references to this name..I do not know whether I am realising it consciously or it is seriously happening… New members in society with son named Krishna, buses plying on road with huge name of Krishna and n number of small small incidents daily…Whenever I see these references, back of my mind…I still wonder…when I have not prayed or thought about this deity in my current lifetime…Why am I seeing so many references…since the day I requested VK to connect to my spiritual guide…
But as @"Sanjay Roy-Certified VK Teacher" said…continue with the flow… I m doing that..not thinking much about it…
It so happened that in the month of February…a whatsapp workshop from a healer in Delhi was announced for month of March 18. It was How to connect to your spiritual guide… Can you imagine?…this happened immediately after my question on the forum.. I enrolled for this workshop…It was a month long workshop last month..It was a nice and enlightening workshop and I am thankful for the mentor who taught different types of meditation…The mentor had clearly said that only with practice n patience and when the time is right will you be able to see and communicate with your right guide…
Before this workshop…I had never done any meditation..It was difficult for me to meditate as either I used to go to sleep or my mind would be occupied with irrevelant thoughts during meditation… Also I used a lot of SO7R , ACS , GS ,BS a lot to connect ..I have got little control over my thoughts and now able to meditate for a short time but I still need great amount of practice…However, once I could see a golden chariot with few golden horses who had wings..but couldn’t see who was driving or sitting on the chariot… I still wonder why did I see a CHARIOT in this era of fast cars and horses like PEGASUS… But my laziness has stopped me from meditation and I need to restart to get further answers..
Last week…..my elder son was talking about a guy he knew whose name was Nivrutti who had 8 dogs..The name.. since it was unique … struck something in my mind…I had read this name in school in primary section somewhere in 80’s…and I recollected that he was the elder brother of Sant Dnyaneshwar who wrote something called “Dnyaneshwari”…
Suddenly an urge developed to read this book… I seriously did not know what this book was about till last week… I searched in Google what this book is about and then came the results…
The Dnyaneshwari (or Jñaneshwari) is the commentary on Bhagavad Gita written by Marathi saint and poet Dnyaneshwar during the 13th century at age 16. This commentary has been praised not only for its scholarly, but also for its aesthetic value. Nivruttinath (c. 1273 – Unknown) was a 13th-century Marathi Bhakti saint, poet, philosopher and yogi of the Nath tradition. He was the elder brother and the teacher (guru) of Dnyaneshwar, the first Varkari saint.
Apart from this another surprising revealation…I got in my google search..
**_According to Navanath Bhaktisaar (नवनाथ भक्तिसार) Chapter one -Shloka 48- Shree Gynashwar was avatara of "Shree Vishnu " in the form of Shree Krishna. i.e. Shree Krishna himself incarnated as Saint Gyaneshwar in Kali-Yuga for the welfare of people.
It’s said in NavaNath Bhakti Saar that at the end of Dwapar Yuga and starting of Kali Yuga. Shree Vishnu in the form of Shree Krishna called upon Nine Narayan Rishi’s from Swarga Loka and instructed them to take incarnations as NavaNatha for the welfare of people as Kali Yuga is approaching and due it’s bad effect on people . Shree Krishna also told them that ,he himself will incarnate along with them and will be known as Gyaneshwar. i.e. GyanDev which is his other name.
Shree Krishna told Nav-Narayanas thus-:
मी ही प्रत्यक्ष जन्मोन । ज्ञानदेव नामे मिरविन ।।48।।
I myself will incarnate as Gyanadeva and I will become famous by this name.

After the above information, I even watched 1940’s movie on Sant Dnyaneshwar to know more about his story..
Now…this was a real surprise and jolt for me..I have started reading more about Krishna now..I even read that entire Universe is KRISHNA and each and every being including we humans, GODS, angels, plants , animals is a part of him..
Am still confused with the whole thing going on..I have purchased English version of Dnyaneshwari (common man’s GITA) and will start reading soon..
Will post further experiences..after I finish reading it…That will take some time…I am myself so surprised that I am going to read Dnyaneshwari to know about Geeta rather than reading a Novel…
Thankyou Sanjay Sir and my dear VK for guiding me..
Deep gratitude to Sharat Sir for inventing VK and sharing it with common man..
