Pragmatic Bhakti Sutra, Shlokas 51 - 54
Further insights into divine love In this section, Narad Ji describes the ultimate divine love, Siddha Bhakti.
Shloka 51: अनिर्वचनीयं प्रेमस्वरुपम्॥ ५१॥
anirvacanīyaṁ prema-svarūpam.
अनिर्वचनीयम् - indescribable, inexplicable; प्रेमस्वरुपम् - the inherent nature of divine love
The inherent nature of divine love cannot be described or defined. It can only be realized.
Shloka 52: मूकास्वादनवत्॥ ५२॥
mūkāsvādana-vat.
मूक-अस्वादन-वत् - like the dumb man’s experience of delightful taste
Like the taste enjoyed by the dumb person.
Shloka 53: प्रकाशते क्वापि पात्रे॥ ५३॥
prakāśate kvāpi pātre.
प्रकाशते - comes to express, is manifested; क्व-अपि - rare, somewhere, sometimes; पात्रे - in a fit recipient
Only in the hearts of some rare ones who are capable and deserving recipients, this kind of indescribable divine love and grace of God gets realized.
Shloka 54: गुणरहितं कामनारहितं प्रतिक्षणवर्धमानं अविच्छिन्नं सूक्ष्मतरं अनुभवरुपम्॥ ५४॥
guṇa-rahitaṁ kāmanā-rahitaṁ pratikṣaṇa-vardhamānam avicchinnaṁ sūkṣma-taraṁ anubhava-rūpam.
गुण-रहितम् - devoid of all attributes; कामना-रहितम् - without any desire whatsoever; प्रतिक्षण-वर्धमानम् - growing every moment; अविच्छिन्नम् - unbroken, constant; सूक्ष्म-तरम् - supremely subtle; अनुभव-रुपम् - of the nature of immediate experience
This supreme love is devoid of attributes (Nirguna); it is free from all selfish desires; it grows in intensity every moment; it is a continuous and consistent inner experience, subtler than the subtlest.
