Keep the Dehi within in View

God is love and He is pleased with the pure hearted who love Him 100%. Make every effort to experience the indweller (Dehi) within the body (deha). The Dehi (Divine Soul) within you is immortal with no birth or death. Don’t forget that you are alive due to His Grace. You must necessarily do your bit to take care of your body without being attached to it. Always keep in view the Dehi within, connect with Him and discharge your duties. At the end of every day or every meeting, pray, “May all the beings in all the Worlds be happy” (Samasta Loka Sukhino Bhavanthu). Realize that the individual peace depends on the peace of those around you. Therefore always pray for the wellbeing and peace of everyone in the Universe. (Baba)

God is love and Baba is the prove of that love and the divine existence. If we get aware in the study circle of the principle of non-argumentative exchange, it is about love, but from time to time it is always again put in question, it causes friction, troubles and energy, we can avoid it or we can act against it or we can use it in a positive way and that is the skill of it. If we avoid it and do not talk to others anymore, what lots of people seem to do, we don’t put it into practice and we have not many usually sticking to it. If we go into arguments against it - that is the worst we can do, because it goes against the principle of non-argumentative exchange.

We can call it ignorance, but it happens always because the principle is not understood. A principle doesn’t change and we cannot interpret a principle, because it doesn’t change, if we argue about it, we turn it upside down, we cannot argue about it. The principle is light, if we argue about it, it is darkness and ignorance and that is the principle of Tamas if we tell that we do it even for Baba that we argue about it because we think we will get a benefit from it, that is the height of ignorance. We put the principle of non-argumentative exchange upside down and that is Tamas.

We have always a choice how to react, we can get mad and upset and get into it and argue also about it.

Or we can use the energy and remind everyone that we should keep the principle in mind and take care that we do not forget it, because a principle is not changing and we have no choice in that sense, but we have a choice how we behave and how we react and if Baba tells us do good, see good, be good, it means we have to make the best out of the principle, we have to deal with it in a positive way and no bad critics and finding faults. If we have to criticize it should be constructive and positive and making it better and not blaming, we should be in that sense able to see good and do good and not in a socializing sense of impressing people with being good what if mostly hypocrisy anyhow and not compatible with our own truth.

If he tells us to keep always our Dehi in mind (divine soul), we have to know the difference between our Dehi and the mind. If it is Sathva it is the Dehi, if it is Rajas, it is passion and in the mind. If we argue about it in the name of the Lord, the principle is turned upside down and that is Tamas.

If we live that principle we are in love and not alone, but with the others. We can think it is easier to be alone and not be bothered about it, what a lot of us seem to do; we avoid it, to not have to face the challenge. Only it is not really love, it is just avoiding it. We have a choice, but the result of our choice we have to take as it is. Krishna taught the Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna and in the end he said, do as you like.

If there was the conclusions – no choice, that is not really right. It was for Arjuna no choice, because he lives Dharma, but for everybody else it is still possible to do it differently. They have an older brother, Karna, he belongs to the Pandavas, he was even the son of Surya, the sun God, but he didn’t grow up with his mother, she had not been married to the God of the sun and he grew up with his cousins and in being loyal to them, he became as it seems one of the biggest demons. And when Baba tells the story, Krishna had informed him about his mother and to whom he really belonged and who he was and as it seems he tried to convince him to fight for the right cause and he didn’t do it, he was listening to the bad company and he was not on the side of the good. He was loyal but it was still a bad choice and Baba used it to make clear how bad the influence can be if we live in bad company. He had a choice and he didn’t use it the right way, so there is always a choice and lots of people do not use it right way or the just don’t understand that we cannot change a principle.

Whatever our choice, the result will be according to our choice. If we think we have no choice and we have to do it only one way, that is not the Dehi, that is a monkey mind and the Dehi (higher self) has nothing to do with the mind.  

We can argue about it if we get in such a situation or we can avoid it or we can use the energy in a positive way and remember the principle and not forget it. It is the principle that doesn’t change.

We always do have a choice how to react, we do not react all sathvic and right just because Baba told us to do so, we constantly react on a rajasic level and we don’t even know how to not lose the Dehi out of view and if we do not use discrimination and we don’t know how to give a positive feedback and how to transform it in to non-argumentative exchange, we are in the mind and already we have lost the Dehi out of view.

There is no way it can work without discrimination. First we have to use discrimination, afterwards we have to see it in our own life and go on no matter what obstacles are there, that is Tapas spiritual work and our center activities require that Tapas and not avoiding it, because that is meant with going on no matter what obstacles are there.

If someone tells us we have no choice, he thinks the way he see it has to be true, because it arranges him and he is probably not even questioning how we do not lose the Dehi out of view, because it would be too much troubles to his mind and it is arranging him to not know. We have to get aware always again that the Dehi should not be lost out of view, because of lack of discrimination. The mind will rather avoid using discrimination, whatever the reason, but mostly because he wants to be in charge and there is a conflict or level confusion between the ego and the higher self.

If we do not understand the principle, someone tells we interpret it, but the one who tells that is really the one interpreting it. So everything he does in the mind is projected outside on the others.

If we know that a principle cannot be interpreted, we don’t have to worry about that, but we worry about turning it upside down. There have been already two people now who react like the study circle would be me, ‘I am that’, because I have to stand up for the principle of non-argumentative exchange and it is my fault if they cannot argue about it and try to argue with me, because it is not possible in the study circle. It would not be good if I would go on that level of arguments, but that part is easy because we can always tell that it is about the principle, but I am surprised how little the value of principle is understood.

After all that guy who tried to argue about it, has not understood the basic principle or he was in a bad mood and let it out on me. Whatever, we will not be on a sathvic level, he had the common attitude of Western’s mind thinking critics and putting it in question is helpful and he has no idea how much he is in conflict with Baba’s teaching, because everything is based on love only. He felt just very frustrated.  

We have to learn how to use the principle of non-argumentative exchange.

If we do not understand it and we do not use discrimination, every time we react with Rajas, passion or with arguments and discussion, we show just lack of self-control. He even went that far to tell that it is easy and I was a bit surprised to find that he was really that naïve, because if he thinks that it is easy to live that love, where has he been until now?

If we would use discrimination, we would have to let go and get detached and we would have to recognize what is meant by truth and that is just not there. It is easy to tell we can do nothing at all so we do not have to see the truth and recognize our own mind state and even call it the Dehi, but that is upside down. The Dehi is not the mind. If we do it for our own Dehi and we listen to the mind and think it has to be like that – it is hypocrisy, upside down and Tamas.  

We are not forced to live not attached or to be able to let go, if we want to listen to the mind we can do it, but we should not think that it is the Dehi, because it is not the Dehi. We ignore it so that we do not have to discriminate and face the truth in it, if our life is based on untruth, it is a lie. If we would see it as it really is, we would have to let go. The tricky mind tells us, if we think it is Baba we do not have to look at it …, that is a monkey mind. It is not the Dehi; it is just the mind fooling us making us believe it is the Dehi, when in reality it is the mind.

Probably the mind prefers to see it that way, so nothing has to be changed and we can go on as it always has been, but that is not the Dehi, it is not wakeup call in our dream.  

The problem is that we have a choice and that we have to discriminate between right and wrong, between truth and untruth, between light and darkness. If we listen to the mind and call it Dehi, it is black and it is darkness, it is Tamas and we have lost the Dehi out of view and that is not what he tells us to do.

It is not in harmony with his teaching, it is upside down. Living a lie and in illusion we are not in our truth, but we just call it truth to make us feel good and that we can go on thinking that we do the right thing, that we have no other choice than going on like that, but we are not in our own truth, we are not focused on the Dehi and we are not at all putting it into practice. In reality, we avoid it and we find excuses to avoid it and we live in the mind only.

Everybody has some other way to see the master or even to call it Baba, what arranges just that person and that are the people who tell we are interpreting it, because they interpret it.

No, if we follow the mind and argue about the principle of non-argumentative exchange we are actually in the mind and we can even understand it how the principle gets turned upside down.

Baba tells us, sathva alone knows the truth. Rajas is between Sathva and Rajas and doesn’t know on what side to go and Tamas is turning it upside down. But that doesn’t change the principle, but only our approach, because we don’t live Sathva and in the light, we live in darkness and Tamas, it means it is not true and upside down and the result will be that, we are attached and we are not able to let go and we are not honest, the result will be according to it and that will be our Karma, our life is a lie and even more so if we claim to be a good devotee and do our duty, when it is just hypocrisy and appearing as such.

And Baba is not the one who tells us to live untruth, he is the one who leads from untruth to truth and takes care that we do get the right answer. He is the one who wants to awake us; the principle of non-argumentative exchange is a must. That is Baba and if we don’t do it and argue with him about it, if we do we don’t agree with him, we live our own mind - he is not that mind-hand we are dealt with …, that hand is our own monkey mind we are dealt with and the result will be in the mind and it is not about the Dehi and realizing the ‘I’-principle and the atman, because there is no room for it if we are in the mind, we get enslaved by the mind and the master is not our higher self.

We cannot argue about the principle of non-argumentative exchange and tell it is the hand we are dealt with, that is all mind only and upside down.

Always keep the Dehi, (higher self, divine soul) in view, Baba’s words. Our Dehi is immortal with no birth or death, there is no way we can have the Dehi in view always and do what Baba tells us listening to him, if we listen to our own mind and think it is Baba. The Dehi is not the mind …
