अवतार / avatāra / संस्कार / saṃskāra / पुनर्जन्म / punarjanma

Prologue :
While walking in a forest in शाहबाग / Shahbagh, I had repeatedly requested माँ / Ma to reveal Her true स्वरूप identity. माँ / Ma said,’Get me the thorn of a lime tree.’  A tiny berry which had purplish juice was peeled partially and served as an ink bottle. The lime tree thorn was the nib. There was no one else near us. With the improvised ink and nib, माँ / Ma wrote the word 'नारायण " /“Narayana” on my hand or my dress.”

Me : Great ! http://shilpsnutrilife.blogspot.in/2014/06/all-about-karvandakaronda.html
All About Karvanda(karonda)
  All About Karvanda(karonda) Karonda is one of the many berry-like fruits believed to originate near the Himalayas, though som...

But there is another tiny kind of this berry which has purple juice and I often savored it. So tiny that while plucking it got burst on the twig itself ... ! And this is the secret of माँ / Ma, She is said to be नारायणी / NarayaNI (The feminine form of नारायण / NarayaNa) They are Brother and Sister. The same नारायणी NarayaNI is Lord Shiva's Consort. I have also written about the etymology of नारायण / NarayaNa and this implies माँ Ma (Anandomoyee) was incarnation of The Divine Mother. The narration in the post that you shared in Facebook also affirms this. Because She told to devotee : This body has come (and is) the result of your prayers and aspirations, and not because of the past 'karma' which happens in the case of the ordinary mortal men.
(Incidentally, विष्णु / VishNu  as मोहिनी attracted Lord शिव / shiva , and that is another aspect why
नारायण /  NarayaNa and  नारायणी / NarayaNI are but two aspects / forms of   विष्णु / VishNu. This is वैदिक / Vaidic, पौराणिक / पौराणिक way of narration. We should not hurry to infer it was a biological relationship of the kind.)
? : Hmmm why would she say Narayana and not Narayani? I suppose it wouldn't matter given she's beyond name and form.
Me : yes, Reality in terms of words is extremely inexplicable and inexpressible ... And I wanted to point out only that She was an avatAra. Her story for us is understand that The Supreme Reality (Ishita/ IshTAr) comes on earth because of Her own volition and there is no cause and effect behind that.
Even Ramakrishna and Sri Ramana were though jnAnI were not avatAra like Rama, Krishna, Buddha or Kalki.
_()_ it's my understanding that Ramana has had many divine incarnations. Did he not appear in form by His own will?
Me : Ramana and Ramakrishna had a 'past-birth' and 'karma' probably. Though again I doubt if Ramana was jnAnI only or avatAra (of Arunachala Shiva) like shankarAchArya...

? ShankarAchArya was avatAra also?
Me : yes, This has been described so, and all his life and whatever He did was an evidence that He had come (and not 'sent') for a special purpose...

? Thank you. My apologies for not being very well read or knowing about avatAras. I remember a dream as a child before birth and did not want to come to earth but it was insisted that I do...lovingly, but truly there was no choice.
Dream body was in child form
Me : your case is somewhat similar to mine. I wanted to come and had choices out of which this choice (parents) was the best suited to me. Though I had to face many hardships, but I'm happy for all and everything.

? : Often times I ask why I'm still here. Honestly. I feel I could just pray or be of good will without a body also. You remember choosing your birth?
Me : Oh! A long story indeed if I go on narrating but summarily remembering past life takes place in 2 ways. First according to Patanjali yoga-sutra : by way of 'saMyama' on 'sanskAra', another is on its own as if in dream or in waking-dreams.
I want to 'publish this dialogue (today's only) in blog... what do you think?
