naam jap karte samay nind kyon aati hai? Aur usse bachne ke upay!

ham jaise hi prabhu ke naam-jap, dhyan ya bhajan ke liye baithe hain, hamari palken bhari hone lagti hain. Ascharya ki baat yah hai ki wahi man jo vyarth ke prapanch, tv dekhne ya samchar sunne mein ghanton jag sakta hai, wah bhagwan ke marg par chalte hi susta kyon par jaata hai? Yah keval shareerik thakan nahi, balki ek sukshm adhyatmik yuddh hai. Nidra yahan keval ek prakritik prakriya nahi, balki ek ‘virodhi’ hai jo aapko aapke param lakshya se dur rakhne ka prayas kar rahi hai. Aie, sikhen ki is alasya par vijay kaise prapt ki jae.

pahchanen apne asli shatru ko

bhajan mein nind ane ka sabse gahra aur kadva sach yah hai ki hamare bhitar abhi prabhu ke liye ‘priti’ (prem ya ruchi) jagrit nahi hui hai. Hamara manovigyan spasht hai—jis karya mein hamara swarth ya gahra anand juda hota hai, waha nind koson dur bhag jati hai. Kya kabhi kisi ko apni pasandeeda film dekhte samay nind aati hai? Kabhi nahi. Atah, samasya nind nahi, balki bhajan mein ras ka na hona hai. Jab tak yah ras paida nahi hota, tab tak hamen is alasya se ladna hoga.

Overtime se sikhen bhakti ka mulya

sansaar mein ek vyakti ko jab adhik dhan ki lalsa hoti hai, to wah apni nind ka tyag kar ‘ovartaim’ (atirikt samay) karya karta hai. Use wah rupya samne dikhayee deta hai, isliye uski thakan gayab ho jati hai. Yadi ham bhi prabhu ke milan ko apna ekmatra aur sabse kimti lakshya man len, to nind hamen chu bhi nahi paegi. Prabhu ki chahat jab teevr hoti hai, to sharir ke sare vikar swatah hi shant hone lagte hain. Lekin jab tak wah teevr virah ya chahat paida nahi hoti, tab tak hamen ‘hath’ ka sahara lena hoga.

sharir ko bhajan ke anukul banana

hamara sharir wah ‘vahan’ hai jis par savar hokar hamen adhyatmik yatra puri karni hai. Yadi vahan hi kharab hoga, to yatra badhit hogi. Bhajan mein ane wala alasya aksar ‘tamogun’ ki adhikta ke karan hota hai. Iske kuch bhautik karanon ko theek karna aniwarya hai:

• pachan aur pet ki shudhi: yadi aapka pet saaf nahi rahta, to sharir mein bhareepan aur pramad rahega. Aise mein bhajan ke samay nind ka ana nischit hai.
• dawa ka upyog: yadi aapko shareerik rogon ke karan nind ya pachan ki samasya hai, to ise najraandaj na karen. Sharir ko svasth rakhne ke liye uchit aushadhi ka sevan karen taki aapka sharir bhajan ke liye ek saksham sadhan ban sake.
• prakritik nidra: sunishchit karen ki aap sharir ko avashyak vishram de rahe hain, taki bhajan ke samay sharir apni adhuri nind puri karne ki koshish na kare.

hath aur nirantrta: vijay ka antim marg

shuruaat mein man aur sharir aapka saath nahi denge. Ve aapko wapas sukh aur nidra ki or kheenchenge. Yahi par ‘hath purvak bhajan’ ki avshyakta hoti hai. Yah ek tapasya hai. Jaise-jaise aap hath karke naam-jap jari rakenge, dhire-dhire aapke hriday mein bhagwan ke prati priti jagrit hone lagegi. Ek bar jab bhajan mein ras ane laga, to nind aur alasya aapke paas bhatkenge bhi nahi. Yad rakhen, nind aapka kimti samay churane wala shatru hai; ise apne jeevan ka anmol dhan mat lutne dijiye.

nishkarsh aur chintan

bhajan mein ane wali nind vastav mein aapke dhairya aur sankalp ki pariksha hai. Yah tamogun ka wah awran hai jo aapko prakash se dur rakhna chahta hai. Yadi aap shareerik shudhi, kathor anushasan aur atuut hath ke saath is yuddh mein date rahte hain, to ek din prabhu ke prem ki wah kiran phutegi jo sare alasya ko bhasm kar degi.

antim vichar: aaj swayam se ek prashn puchhen—”kya ham apne adhyatmik lakshyon ko bhi utni hi gambhirta aur imandari se lete hain jitna ham sansarik labh, manoranjan ya tuchch prapanchon ko lete hain?” yadi uttar ‘nahi’ hai, to aapki nind shareerik nahi, mansik hai.
