Love alone is the Fruit of Love

The Divine has comes as Avatar only to teach mankind the truth about love. Love alone is the fruit of love. True Love has no trace of self-interest and knows no fear. The world displays the diversity that has emanated from the One. The Divine demonstrates the unity that subsumes the diversity. Recognition of this 'Unity in Diversity' can be learnt only from the Divine. Wherever you go, whatever you do or see, cultivate the sacred feeling that you will do only those actions which pleases God. The Gita has declared: Bear no ill-will towards any living being (Adveshtaa Sarva Bhoothaanaam). Hatred towards anyone is hatred for God. The scriptures have also clearly declared: The salutation that you offer to anyone reaches the Divine. When you fill your hearts with love, you will have no hatred towards anyone. Cultivate the faith that the Divine is in everyone and surrender unto Him in a spirit of true dedication.

Here he is telling us that he comes only as Avatar to teach the truth about 'love', nothing else. He is teaching love. The Avatar didn't come to teach us to not talk or to keep silence, as he tells us here; he comes only to teach the truth about love.  

The Divine has comes as Avatar only to teach mankind the truth about love. Love alone is the fruit of love.

Love is the fruit of love; therefore, there is nothing but love. The universe is filled with love and why? If we don't have the experience, imagine it is a pure being state. We transcend the mind and our thoughts and experience pure being or pure consciousness, it is unlimited and non-conceptual, and it is unchangeable and everywhere present. It is the same with love; 'pure love' it cannot be transcended; only it needs more than just meditation to make the experience of pure love.

True Love has no trace of self-interest and knows no fear. The world displays the diversity that has emanated from the One. The Divine demonstrates the unity that subsumes the diversity.

'True love' knows no fear and why, because it is beyond the mind and the body.
Fear belongs to the body and there are three types of fear, the fear of relationship, the fear to lose the mind and the fear of death, all three levels. Yogis are our friends, because the relationship is always good only and Baba as divinity is the same, he is goodness and what is part of the body and mind is not good.
There is no self-interest, because it is beyond the mind and the body.
The higher self is the same in all of us that 'pure love' state is for all of us beyond the body and the mind. There is a gap in between and in that gap in my insight with the higher self was a blue ribbon and there was written 'self' in it. The higher self was white light, love and of breathtaking beauty. If it would not have said 'self' in that blue ribbon and gap, I would have thought that it is divine. But it was the higher self and today I know why, the higher self is the Jivatma, the soul and divinity is the Paramtama, the universal soul. There is a difference between our higher self and the realization that it is for all the same and that is the divine.

The world displays the diversity that has emanated from the One.

If there is only One and the world has emanated from that one and that one is present in everybody as the higher self, there is really only one existing if it is in you or in me or in everybody.

The Divine demonstrates the unity that subsumes the diversity.

Baba makes us aware of the unity, the oneness which is beyond the multiplicity and diversity of all beings.

Recognition of this 'Unity in Diversity' can be learnt only from the Divine.

After the insight with the higher self, I knew I needed someone to make me understand it right. All those questions, why it was the higher self and how it was connected to divinity and why we couldn't just understand it. He tells us why here, the recognition of the unity in diversity can be learnt only from the divine. We went to him and that is what happened after, the 'we' was created by him, it means 'you and I' are we, with other words; we two and he are we. He is part of it, because he makes it. The relationship is not only 'you and I', because between us is no relationship, it is his doing, therefore, it is you and I and he and that is we.
That is the first step. The second step is 'we' (Baba included) and 'he' (the divine, not the body, not the mind, the one only, the principle, the 'I am that', pure love) We and He is 'I'.
There was still the separation between 'I and you and Baba' in the mind, we didn't just get it that 'we are that'. Thinking about the higher principle, the 'I am that' we get to the insight, 'I am the one' and it is all on the inner view level, if we follow the insights and listen to him and we go on seeing it in our own life we will be able to absorb the wisdom. It is the man in the dream giving the answers, that is 'He' and when we listen to Baba's words we recognize the reflection in them. The body is conceptual and part of 'we', we all have a body, only the divine principle is different from the body and that leads to 'I', the recognition of the realized One. There is only one 'I' and that 'I' is in everybody. That is why 'unity in diversity' can be learnt only from the Divine.

The Divine demonstrates the unity that subsumes the diversity.

Walking around in the midst of his devotees he demonstrate the unity – that pure love, he is talking always about the 'I am that', but people try to understand it on the level of the mind and that cannot work. We have to listen to him and see it in our own life to be able to absorb the wisdom and 'He' is present as the man in our dreams who is there to awake us.
Someone asked me if Baba is talking in me and I answered that he doesn't talk, Atman reflects, reacts and resounds, the relative reality of created objects is reflecting in the non-changing reality and mirror of the Atma, therefore, that is called seeing, it is inside perception, even if it feels like talking, it is still reflecting on the insight level, it is in the mirror of Atma in the heart and even if it would feel like words or talking, it mirrors something and we have to get aware of it and that is not talking, it is not on the mind level, it is still a reflection or it resounds or reacts.
When someone tells us that Baba talks in him, it sounds like mind, like we are talking and using words in a normal mind state and it is not right, because it get wrong understood and mind is direct and we would think it is direct talking and not indirect seeing.
Atma reflects, reacts and resounds and we should describe it as 'reflection, reaction or resound, but it is not talking as we talk on the mind level, because that is a mind state and not Atma.
As we have to make that difference and we have to learn to discriminate, we should be careful with such statements, because it gets wrong understood.
Wherever you go, whatever you do or see, cultivate the sacred feeling that you will do only those actions which pleases God.

It is a good way to focus on pleasing God and we avoid what we think is not okay and not pleasing the Lord. If the man who comes in our dreams to awake us tells, 'that wallflower existence sucks' it means he is not pleased, whatever the reason. He is not pleased when he said, 'isolated' and first I didn't know why isolated, we were talking about relationships and by doing that it was clear that 'isolated' means not pleased, we are following him and doing his work and trying to do our best and we get isolated, there is someone were careless behind it. It began with him saying 'engaged', so it is for all of us we are all one. There is nothing coming back from that side, at least nothing positive or not something that pleases the Lord, if we get 'isolated' and it is not that nice to hear about a 'wallflower existence and that it sucks'.
That is not exactly what it should be. If we don't please the Lord, we don't question what we are doing; we take on the mind a certain attitude and stay with it, based on wrong conclusion.  

The Gita has declared: Bear no ill-will towards any living being (Adveshtaa Sarva Bhoothaanaam). Hatred towards anyone is hatred for God.

Baba didn't come to tell us that we should keep silence, he came to teach love only and that love is not reached by silence, otherwise, he would not tell that 'wallflower existence sucks' and he would not tell 'isolated', that is the result of silence and not love.

The Divine has comes as Avatar only to teach mankind the truth about love. Love alone is the fruit of love.

Love is the fruit of love alone and not silence. If we think that Baba teaches through silence, because he didn't talk during Darshan, it is all wrong understood. He talked in interviews and he had people after every interview nearly, he worked non-stop and it was all by talking and he had I don't know how many speeches. Darshan is sight of truth and only someone is able to give Darshan if he is really established on the level of Atma. It means being the Atma and not the mind and knowing the difference and only someone established in the Atma can reflect back to people the mirror of the Atma, the sight of truth as Baba does.
It is like with another devotee when he said to Baba, 'I am like you Swami', Baba answered, 'so go and give Darshan' and he really thought he was able to give Darshan, what is the prove that he has not understood it. Only someone can give Darshan who is firmly and unchangingly established in truth and is living the reality of the divine and always the Atma, non-changing reality eternal and always true. We don't give Darshan. We cannot tell that Baba was silent in Darshan, so I am silent as well. It is not about silence, it is about Atma. Atma is 'pure love' not silence and Baba doesn't talk during Darshan because that pure love reflects and he is telling as little as possible to focus on the Darshan and not on the mind. Talking is mind level.  
It is about divinity and only if we have a constant state of 'pure love' and we have realized the 'I am that' the Atmic principle we are able like Baba and keep silence to reflect the objective level of the world back to people.  With Baba we don't live a wallflower existence that sucks, that is the reflection after writing how many times? It is the mind and we don't get isolated by love, but we get isolated by the mind of a devotee who thinks he is better than other and probably enlightened and he doesn't need to listen to Baba anymore.

The Divine has comes as Avatar only to teach mankind the truth about love. Love alone is the fruit of love.

We should never forget that it is about 'love only' and in your silence is no love at all.  It feels carelessness and coldhearted and strange. To think we know if we don't know, only Baba knows, he is the knower and if we don't listen, we are in the mind only, no love, no feeling of love and care, but only carelessness.

The scriptures have also clearly declared: The salutation that you offer to anyone reaches the Divine. When you fill your hearts with love, you will have no hatred towards anyone. Cultivate the faith that the Divine is in everyone and surrender unto Him in a spirit of true dedication.

If we fill our hearts with love, there will be no hatred and no 'isolation' and 'no wallflower existence that sucks'. It is rather a sign that there is no love whatsoever. We didn't feel love. Knowing that the divine is in everybody and we are 'that' we go on, because Baba did it, but it is really with Baba and nobody else, the others play a role in it and that is why we have to go along.
The dedication is to Baba and to understanding his message or whatever that is.
We have to find Baba in his words. He is the word and there is love and not in silence. He doesn't give Darshan anymore on the outside level, but he does on the inside. We have Darshan in the insight if we do not ignore it. And when we get that inside Darshan we know that it is Baba and not just the mind.
