Bhagavad Gita, Atma the beautiful mansion

Reading Baba's discourses in the Bhagave Gita II, gives me the answer about what Baba said. In the chapter "Atma Soudha is the Only Beautiful Mansion".
It seems that is what I was looking for, when he said: "I know what I am doing, get a big house". Or at least it feels like it goes in that direction. There is never only one answer, and until all are looked at, the object cannot be known, so maybe there is another one, I don't know...?
He tells in that chapter the story of a rich man, who got a beautiful house and asked lots of sages to be present for the inauguration. And he knew there were no defects in that house, but a yogi said, but there are two defects you cannot correct.
This mansion will one day collaps, that is the first defect.
The second one is, the owner has to leave the world one day and go. Death is certain.
Only whoever keeps the eternal atma thatwa in view, will enjoy ever lasting peace and happiness.
A mansion of atma is the most beautiful house, there is not greater and more beautiful mansion in this world.
Is that what he meant, when he said: I know what I do, get a big house?

Bija Mantras, and TM mantras and no insight

TM uses Bija Mantras, root mantras, tantric tradition, they invoke the deity on the finest level or the corresponding chakra. Mantras associated with the developmental cycles of life are based on age. These invoke the gods and goddesses of the first subplane of Cosmic Consciousness.

Shaktipat, and empty Western shoes

I can meditate as before, even use the TM mantra, it doesn't matter anymore.
As Baba said in an interview, in words, not in dream, all mantras are okay.

Sathya Sai Baba Interview

Baba said in that interview:

No difference in time, be focused, quality is important, not quantity. Fill your life with love, pure love, unselfish love and do it,
and you'll realize yourself.
And one of the present people asked:
There are your parents pictures, where are they now, your mother and your father?
Baba answered:
They are parents of the body, there is no mother or father to me. You have no mother and no father. Before birth, where is the mother? Where's the father?
Before marriage, who is husband who is wife?
After marriage there is husband and wife. After birth she is mother, and he is father. Before birth not. It is only physical, but to watch the real relationship is important, it is very important. The physical mother and father after 10, 20 or 100 years are gone. Real mother and father are permanent.
Truth is father, mother is love, peace is daughter, wisdom is son, devotion is the brother and yogis are your friends.
Detach from mind husband and wife. This is real, truth is permanent.
Truth is one, not two. Who is the father? Truth is permanent that is my father. Love is my mother, love is everywhere. Love is my mother, a permanent mother. Peace, peace means Shanti, it's my daughter. 
There is only one religion, the religion of love. There is only one caste, the caste of humanity, there is only one language, the language of the heart. There is only one God, he is omnipresent.
There are no differences, but you will like it. Whatever he does, it's good for you. Good for you, not for him.
Begin with observing, start with I, then I and you = We, only we. We and He, then only He remains, only He, no I, no you.
That's my point.
There is only one God. Look at that: Two hands, five fingers and five fingers, two legs, a nose and many, many thoughts, but only one heart, the heart is one. The heart is God.
It has many religions in the world, but God is just the heart.
The universe is like a physical body, God is the heart. Whatever you want, you pray as you want. Different names, different colors, different state, different countries. Love is only one, keep that in mind, love is just one.
There is no difference, you see differences that is ignorance.
The difference is my God, this is your God, this is your God, that makes me ...
Death is sweeter than the blindness of ignorance.
Be careful, because it is dead. Say it: Death is sweeter than ignorance.
Someone in the group was repeating it.
Death is sweeter than the blindness of ignorance. Ignorance is a very bad thing.
And then someone asked, if there was a symbol for God and he answered:
The supreme symbol of God is love. There is no icon.

Superconsciousness and I; Baba interview

I listend to a Baba interview in YouTube and wrote a part of it down.
Baba asks:
What is special about the human birth?
Wisdom, Vignan, consciousness. There is first general consciousness, after sleep comes the dream state, dream is subconsciousness, sleep is unconsciousness, after is the state of superconsciousness.
You are superconsciousness, you are the super master.
Where is the master?
The master is in superconsciousness.
Follow the master, face the devil, fight to the end, finish the game.
Follow the master. Master is superconsciousness. That consciousness is the real you, not that 'I', 'I', 'I'. Look this is my hand, that's my leg, my head, my mind, my place, but who am I?
This is my body, I am not the body. This is my Mind, I am not the Mind. This is my mind, 'my' and 'mind' are separate.
This is my cloth, cloth is separate and my is separate.
The same is separate my body and my body is like this is separate from it. I am not the body.
Thinks in this way, inquiry, inquiry is very important.
How should we do it?
By gathering knowledge, information. Information and correct knowledge, but correct information, wrong knowledge is useless. First, right knowledge, second transformation. Transformation comes afterwards and that is the true result.
Information wheb only broadcasting, that is useless and a waste of time. Time waste is life waste. Time is everything. Don't waste time.

Union between God and man

Baba said as much as man is longing for union with God, God is longing for union with man. I don't know if that is how he said it, because the longing would be it.
To get aware of being the same, how did it happen?
Following a dirction to reach and find the one.
