Ocean of knowledge !
Baba (Prof.K.V.) Belsare was a very unique spiritual mentor, who inspired us to lead a life beyond what we see, hear, smell, and taste, by giving us an inner strength for a better tomorrow. Baba was a union of Saraswati (Divine knowledge) &Ganga ( Purity). His amazing reservoir of spiritual knowledge coupled with intense purity of thoughts and deeds reflected in his way of being . His mastery in simplifying the most difficult transcripts like Veda, Upnishada, Bhagavad – Gita and Dnyaneshwari left us spell bound and awe – struck. His discourses captured refrences from all over the world .We used to test ourselves after his discourses and we often failed in remembering them.The beauty was all this difficult one was full of humour. Hats off to you Belsare Sir for your great sense of humour which enabled us to effortlessly swim in the divine water!
In our management jargon we spend so much resources to influence people to practice what you preach. Baba is an ideal example of practicing what he preached. His total surrender to his “Sadguru” (Shree Maharaj) is a class by itself. His ideals were Shree Gurudev Ranade, & Shree Bhausaheb Ketkar and he lived life on the path laid by his ideals.
He was so humble that he always positioned himself as” Loud speaker”of Shree Maharaj. This was the height of humility of this himalayian personality. He practiced 24 x 7 Namasmaran. In one of his conversation with his core group member he had said that he has distilled FourThousand books and came to the concusion that there is no substitute for “Nam smaran”. He was a divine soul evolved so much that his mere presence used to transform everything around him into divinity.
Penning down thoughts about him by me is like measuring the dimensions of an ocean using a bucket. It is difficult to meet with such an evolved soul again whose height is unmatched by anybody & that is what we are experiencing for last 20 years after his demise.
The memory of his stellar spiritual leadership continues to be a beacon for all of us.
