Virtuous living, beneficial thoughts, elevating ideals and righteous conduct can confer not only good health, but what is even more precious, Aatmananda, the ecstatic Awareness of the Reality itself. When one yearns for the happiness and prosperity of all mankind, he or she is blessed with the wisdom and strength to mark out the way and lead them towards it.
The person sees one’s chosen God in everyone. Every act of theirs will be as pure, as sincere and as sacred as an offering to God. A very effective way to conquer all sources of physical and mental disease and debility is awareness of one's Divine (Atmic) Reality. That will bring about an upsurge of Love and Light, for, when one recognizes that he or she is the Atma, one would cognize the same Atma in all, and share in the joy and grief, strength and weakness of all.
Baba (thought for the day)
If we are not in sathva, we have no inclination to understand Baba’s thought for the day and we have to get into it and dive deeply into the meaning of it and only then we are able to find some interest first we are able to think it over and finally we get absorbed in it.
So if you think it is much too difficult and better we keep only silent and go on in silence, so we don’t have to think about it, it just should tell you that your mind is probably in the state of passion, Rajas and not in Sathva, purity or light or interested for truth in that very moment in a sathvic way.
If people do not think it over and do not go into it, it is just because it needs another state of mind and they enjoy the senses. Even if the result is not what we think it should be, Rajas begins sweet and ends bitter, infatuation is also part of it and Sathva, purity begins bitter and ends sweet.
Not long ago we had a great thought for the day and Baba explained that the mind is in the midst of all the sheaths and he is controlled by the moon and water and goes therefore, downwards and not upwards.
The mind is the master of the senses, if we are in bliss, the senses and the mind gets balanced by the reservoir of bliss in the mind.
Therefore, virtuous living, good thoughts are the beginning of it to be in a sathvic state or we meditate somehow if possible regularly to get in a sathvic state. As Baba calls meditation only if it is beyond the level of body and mind, we could call it silent sitting or Sadhana, spiritual practice.
Such a person sees God in everyone. If we arrive to see God in everyone, every action will be pure, but not if we do not see God in everyone.
And if we see God in everyone, we also see the reflection of that one in the silence of the mirror of the heart, because there is no difference and therefore, we call it object, because it is everything outside of the subjective self is object and every object has a reflection.
As it is all the same, we don’t talk about that person, because that makes them different, we talk about the object and there is a reflection and we want to see that reflection, even if we get maybe a shock in seeing that reflection.
Last summer I met a guy I had not seen for years and ten years ago we met dancing with the dancing Buddhas and he went into health care and started in a late age, he was already forty or more a new apprenticeship.
So I wondered how he was doing and he finished it and he seemed to be okay.
But after that at night in the dream he was present as death. That was really a shock and too awful, I had forgotten that he talked about his job and that he helped people to die, but I thought of a normal dying. Only when I saw the reflection I remembered that he had said that he worked for one of those exit firms, legal suicide.
But the inner view it was that as scary, a real nightmare or horror, it was pitch, black and dark and no light whatsoever, only a red life line which was with all those people cut before time and somehow the souls seemed lost they were sticking to him. So I had all night one nightmare after the other seeing someone’s life line cut before time and it was nothing but darkness and above that head of that guy was the death, death as reaper. There was only darkness, because they all made a wrong decision and decided by the mind to die and it was not divinity doing it, but them. They all didn’t know what they were doing, so it looked for all the same way.
I would be a great idea for a horror film. How shocking and fearful to see death above the head of that guy in the dream and getting by that aware of the blind ignorance in it.
That his guy thinks he renders service to people when in reality he kills them and it is harm and not no harm.
That are lost souls, lost in ignorance and no peace of mind and no light, but as they don’t know what they are doing and he doesn’t know what he is doing, but he does it for money, there is no excuse, he is the professional killer.
It is probably a good paying job and he had time to go to the swimming pool when other people work and he even thinks he is spiritual and that is totally nuts.
Something scarier I have never seen until now.
As there is no difference on that level and we are all one, I was constantly afraid when I would be next, so it felt like being in a slaughter house and it was just a question of my turn. Only when I realized that I had that ‘insight’, because I talked to him in that afternoon and I had met him before and during the time I went dancing in the Osho disco, at that time he was still getting a new education in health care and he was just a normal person, but not doubt about it, things had changed for him and not for the better.
That is where it leads if we do not have any discrimination, if he would have, he would not do such a job.
So if we see our chosen God in everyone, for me it is the higher self, white light and nothing but beauty and love or Baba and because everybody is that higher self as it is the reality of ‘I am the One’, what I learnt with Baba.
Baba is also the same higher light self. It was not that easy to get aware of it, it was much easier before I went to him as he was in the heart, it was clear from the inside that he was that, but after I had seen him in the body, it changed and I had to get aware of it and it grew. I saw that ‘I am that’ I the air I the Darshan and it was the most difficult Darshan experience I had to get aware of and in that time it felt kind of lost, I knew I should understand it and that it was the same, but without inner confirmation in the inner view it was nevertheless not done.
It was there in the Darshan as ‘I am that’, but the difficulty began in my mind, there was the thought that all were thinking the same thought, I was not even aware that it was Darshan. It just didn’t make sense that all are thinking the same thought, even if it is totally logical, if we meditate all as ‘I am that’ or Soham. If we meditate with Soham it is the impersonal aspect of divinity and we are all the same thought; only it is not a thought, but awareness. So Baba is that, we are that, I am that, all are that. That was the right way of the insight. First it was above him and all and after it was about us and for that reason he engaged me with someone and from that ‘us’ it went to me, I am that and from ‘I’ to all are that.
It is probably the most difficult journey I have made in my inner view from seeing something outside and in getting aware that I am that as well and finally that all are that. Now I know there is no difference, it works for all the same way and we are all the same self, the same oneness.
The person sees one’s chosen God in everyone. Every act of theirs will be as pure, as sincere and as sacred as an offering to God. A very effective way to conquer all sources of physical and mental disease and debility is awareness of one's Divine (Atmic) Reality.
It was really not that easy to get there, because it went over the inner identification and inner marriage, because we are the same in the light of the husband. And that created again a relationship which was ‘not that’ and everything else but not the husband I had expected to find. So it was not at all easy to get there.
That will bring about an upsurge of Love and Light, for, when one recognizes that he or she is the Atma, one would cognize the same Atma in all, and share in the joy and grief, strength and weakness of all.
It is great to be the same and we are all Atma, but he does right to tell us as well that we share both levels, we share joy and grief and strength and weakness of all … and you don’t want to know how that looks in the insight, as the objects is reflecting its own reality. It is not with everybody that shocking like with that guy when death was above his head and the dead souls sticking to him lost in darkness, but we never expected the object to be that way and the reflection is shocking.
With my ex, Baba turned into a vampire and a long nose Baba, he deceived everybody and he took on advantage of it, so Baba was there and reflected as vampire.
And later he was standing in a ruin of our life and said that it was all he could get in garage sales, he looked totally ridiculous, he was wearing a red skirt like a woman and a woman black fur jacket, what said that his heart was Tamas and everything beyond the belt level was rajas and red, but woman like, he was in the mind. In the inner view is the higher self the husband and the mind is the wife.
That is the reflection of the object in that case it was the reflection of my ex. I wouldn’t say that it was enjoyable, it was rather upsetting. It was about the shadow and that is not the bright light shining in sunshine, but that perverted sick attitude of mind playing its evil game in the heart of man.
Insight is the way to right knowledge and if we know we are God, it makes us free.
That is what Baba said, 'know that you are God and be free!'
