Nityananda’s Anxiety in the First Stroke of Namlekhan

The extreme anxiety which Nityananda feels to end the suffering of and give love to all the souls in creation, who are His part and parcels, is revealed in the first stroke (न) of Namlekhan. Save.

"Doyal Thakur Nityananda, Para Duhka Jane."

The first stroke, the rounded Na of Namlekhan reveals the primary purpose of Nityananda Prabhu. He feels extreme pain and anxiety and compassion to give love to every soul, every part and parcel of His in the whole creation. Whether they are in the human body or the animal body or whether they are in the plant body, tree bodies or aquatic bodies or insect bodies. He wants to give love because he feels not only the suffering of human beings but He feels the suffering of every part and parcel of His. Whichever body that soul may be in.

So "Na," Na means He bends. He compromises, He gives up all His rules and regulations and His requirements, His conditions and approaches the souls who don't want to approach Him. He approaches them with His love. Ready to give, just ready to give His love and that love is transferred by touch. The touch of the first stroke and the second stroke. So that is the beauty of the first stroke of Namlekhan.

I was explaining the first stroke of Namlekhan and the bending of Nityananda to reach out to every soul. The thing is in Kali Yuga the souls have a lot of pride so they are standing straight like the second stroke. And Nityananda...someone has to bend you know. Someone has to bend so Nityananda bends and He gives Himself. Gives His true ego of being the source of all living entities, He gives up that true ego and He bends.

He pleads with the conditioned souls just to let Him touch them. The union of the first and second stroke is the beginning of all auspiciousness for that soul. It means that Nityananda is taking the first step but then the soul is extending his hand and the union is that of the first and second stroke. And that extending of our hand is by Namlekhan. The soul extends the hand by Namlekhan and it's so beautiful. Nityananda is always just ready. Just touch me, just touch me, just embrace me. And then the soul takes the first step. He or she opens the door to the house and touches Nityananda. Then all auspiciousness is attained.

So Na, Na. Not even "Nee." Nee the sweetness increases. But Na is the beginning of all auspiciousness for the souls if they just simply accept this process of Namlekhan and try to touch the supreme abode of all bliss and happiness. That is Nityananda.

I will tell you a realization I had about the first stroke is that why did He accept the name Nityananda? "Nityanando mahakayo...."

Why? Because His only intention is to give that Ananda. Nitya-Ananda. That eternal bliss to each and every soul in creation. He is there everywhere in creation. "Anandan tarast...." He's there everywhere in creation so the purpose He doesn't want to keep that love to Himself. That is Nityananda. To share that love one should be mad in that love 24x7 because if for some time one is not having that love, mad with that love then one cannot share at that time. So Nityananda has assumed the name Nityananda because through the first stroke He is taking the prerogative in approaching the souls humbly, not forcing and giving His touch.
