By: Harold Sequeira promhari@yahoo.com SRI KRISHNA - the wise CounselorA good counselor firstly tries to explore your problem with you, in a preliminary dialogue. Secondly he will try to understand it; thirdly he would suggest some action, to overcome the problem. At the first stage, he will listen to your problems sympathetically, then at the second with empathy. He will lead you from uncontrolled and confused emotions, to the intellectual understanding of the problem. Then once your emotional blocks are removed, and you can function with your intelligence, and rationality, he would move a step further; he will go to the next level with you, walking hand in hand, as your guide. He will gradually lead you away from the ego-connected emotions, to the level of reason, or Buddhi, or the power of discrimination, where the whole scenario changes and he helps you to see the bigger picture. If your counselor is a spiritually oriented one, he will talk to you about your greater parts, your spirit (or soul, atma, Purusha, or witness ? as called differently, by different traditions) and of God. He would help you to make this ?undying entity?, the center of your thoughts, actions and emotions. He will help you to change your level perception. And by doing this you understand your problem differently. The problem is there, but instead of running away, you face it squarely. A good counselor will give you time to mature. Your thoughts, ideas, values, are all encrusted and they do not let go their hold on you so easily. COUNSELLING IN THE GITA Exploration, understanding and action, the three fundamental techniques of counseling are there from the time of the Mahabharata, and its fratricidal civil war, which nearly destroyed the ancient Indian civilization. Arjuna, as commander of chief of the Pandora army, faces a grave crisis. Confused, emotional, trembling with agitation, with breath out of control, with beads of sweat pouring, out of the heat of his emotions. His heart pounding, his mind a mass confusion, he breaks down. Sri Krishna, his wise counselor helps him to explore the whole gamut of emotions, his very way of understanding takes a 360 degree turn, and his vanquished will is revived to action. This whole drama of the human soul, almost on the point of breakdown, is elaborated in the Gita. If you find your problems insoluble, the Gita is a great aid. It helps one become sane and functional, even when facing a grave crisis. In India sages and seers, the thinkers and the doers, yogis, mystics and so forth have found succor in the wise counseling of Sri Krishna, the divine counselor, when facing grave crisis in their life.
