The Supreme Wisdom is Atma reflected in the Objective World

The human body is a cover, a receptacle for the Atma. Elements like water and wind are intimately bound up with the body. Therefore, the Atma Principle, which is the core, is not cognized. People have lost awareness of this Principle, which is Truth. The Atma is in the body, but not of it. The Atma Principle, though active in the body, does not belong to the body. The ability of the eyes to see and the ears to hear are given by the Atma. The eyes and ears are sustained by the Omni-Consciousness, the Divine Principle. Your Soul (Divine Self) is the real ‘You’, the Will (Sankalpa). The elements (ether, wind, fire, water, and earth) that constitute the cosmos operate only as prompted by the supreme wisdom, which energizes them. The entire world of living beings - both fixed and moving are sustained by supreme wisdom. That supreme wisdom is Atma, the Brahman and the visible, objective world.
Baba (thought for the day)

‘I am That’ is the divine principle, there are three parts in it, subject, object and relationship and an all three levels it cannot be transcended. 
 The being level is usually what we know frist and best, because if we meditate we experience ‘pure being or pure consciousness’ and we know it is non-changing and not manifested, we know it is unlimited and not conceptual being.
Baba tells us that there is only ‘love’ and it is about ‘that’ only and it is the objective level of creation and what is left after we have all transcended, we cannot transcend ‘pure love’ and what else can we not transcend? Baba tells us, ‘I am I’, we cannot transcend the universal I, and it is present as first awakening in all beings.

The human body is a cover, a receptacle for the Atma.

And why the Atma is not cognized?

Elements like water and wind are intimately bound up with the body. Therefore, the Atma Principle, which is the core, is not cognized.

And what happens because it cannot be cognized? It gets lost and we have lost the awareness of the principle which is truth.

People have lost awareness of this Principle, which is Truth. The Atma is in the body, but not of it.

What does it mean that Atma is the body, but not of it. The Atma is the source, it is that which cannot be transcended, but it is the source of everything. Because it is unlimited and the body is limited, it is not of it.

People have lost awareness of this Principle, which is Truth. The Atma is in the body, but not of it. The Atma Principle, though active in the body, does not belong to the body. The ability of the eyes to see and the ears to hear are given by the Atma. The eyes and ears are sustained by the Omni-Consciousness, the Divine Principle. Your Soul (Divine Self) is the real ‘You’, the Will (Sankalpa). The elements (ether, wind, fire, water, and earth) that constitute the cosmos operate only as prompted by the supreme wisdom, which energizes them.

And all that is promoted by the supreme wisdom, which energizes them. Our soul, divine self, is the real ‘you’ and the real ‘I’ only we have to approach it as a principle and that means, ‘you and I are we’ and ‘we and he (divine principle – divine self) is I’, but that is the universal ‘I’, that ‘I am I’ Baba is talking about and it is in that very moment cognized and not forgotten. Baba is awakening the awareness in us of that principle, which is truth.
If we don’t share it and if we don’t cognize the wisdom, it is again lost. Lost means the whole world is in silence because the awareness of the principle is lost.
What we live in the world is not the awareness of the divine principle, but only the mind. If we don’t live the message of the ‘divine principle’, what means we have to transcend the conceptual world to get to the awareness of ‘I am that’, pure being, pure love and ‘I am I’, the universal divine in everything around us.

The entire world of living beings - both fixed and moving are sustained by supreme wisdom. That supreme wisdom is Atma, the Brahman and the visible, objective world.

If we keep silent, we are the expression of the mind. 
Atman cannot be silent, otherwise it gets lost again, the difference between the mind and divinity is the wisdom and that wisdom has to be expressed. If we got all that wisdom as gift from Baba as you said, we have to share it; we cannot keep it for ourselves. 
 The wisdom of the divine belongs to everybody. Divinity is everybody and not just one person.
We have to accept truth and that is in the words of Baba and that is not present if we don’t share it. And if we accept the path of truth, we also have to accept right action and that is sharing it or Sadhana or meditation and the various Sadhanas which all have the aim to purify the mind and nobody knows how to listen to Baba and how to understand it right as the sun, the light reflected in the inner view and in a clear mind. How do we get aware of that reflection, we have to listen to him and it is done by time, time is the preacher. The first part of affliction of the mind is overcome by meditation and purification of the mind and the second part is about Maya, illusion and it is overcome by time and listening to his words. His words are enlightening us. 
But nobody talks about it and people project Baba’s wisdom into culture and cultural values and Sai family and this way the truth of the Atma gets lost, the message of the Atma gets lost, because it is not cognized.

The entire world of living beings - both fixed and moving are sustained by supreme wisdom. That supreme wisdom is Atma, the Brahman and the visible, objective world.

If we don’t think it over and look at his words and we go deep into it, the light reflected in the divine message is not cognized, and therefore, we don't understand the man who is in our dream to awake us, because it could be as well only a dream. The mind has an easy explanation for everything, it is just a dream. It feel like that mind makes out of everything a dream only. 
But Atman knows the difference between the mind and the Atman, not the mind and we are in the mind. 
If we don’t listen to him and think it over, we are not able to absorb.
Divinity lives in the divine message, first is the messenger of God and only afterwards it is the son of God and when both are there, message and the son, we get aware that there is no difference between the son and the father, ‘I and the father are one’.
But that has to be a living experience, it is not theoretical knowledge and that is why people don't get it. If we don't live it, we cannot make the experience, if we don't practice, we don't get aware of it and it cannot be cognized. 
On the experience level, we have to live it and make his words ‘our words’ that is the message when he said, ‘use my words’.
First is the word and the word is with God and the word is God, that is stated in the Bible and it always true also here.
How can we get aware of the message of the Atma and keep silent and don’t tell about it?
The difference between the people living in the mind only and Atman is the message only. It is not possible to feel Baba’s presence without his words and when we share it in the study circle Baba is present and not when we read it at home in the book, that is not the same. The wisdom has to be shared and in sharing it the divinity is present.
‘We and He is I’, there is no difference between us. There is no difference between he and I, but it has to be experience and it is only possible on the basis of ‘we’ first and that means we have to share it with others, it means we – ‘you and I are we’ – we have to share the ‘principle of the divine – he’ and it is always transcendental, it is always not the body, we know what it means to transcend and that it is non-conceptual, but it cannot result in only in silence, otherwise, natural law takes over and the mind goes by nature downwards into the senses and the wisdom gets lost, we are in the mind again. 
It only can be wisdom and divine wisdom, what means upwards not downwards in the senses, if it is transformed by the energy – breath and by the intellect - it has to be cognized and how do we cognize it?
As Baba tells us, ‘we and He is I’, that is how we cognize it, we have to share it, that is the first step and the basis. If we don’t share it, we are back in the body, there is only ‘you and I’, but no we and that doesn’t work.
When we share it and even if it is in a written word like here, it is not silence, it is the word that expresses itself and we are thinking over Baba’s thought for the day and that is the wisdom, it is the same wisdom we experience when he is in our dream to awake us.

We have to watch out to not get to wrong conclusions and he just told us why, the reason is the affliction in the mind and it is not the first part what is solved by purification, it is the second challenge we meet with the mind, it is avarana, the veiling power of Maya and that is lifted up not by Sadhana, but by time. 
If we get to a wrong conclusion and we don’t accept the truth of it, we are not in the Atma, we are in the mind only and we are victims of Maya.
That is why Baba said to me in the interview room four times wait. I was kind of not happy that I had lost my duty teching meditation and once I answered for someone and he said four times wait and it got very silent in the interview room, it was like all were holding on the breath and I felt the tears come up and afterwards he took my hand and walked with me together in the other room. I knew all that meant something, but that four times wait was still too much to take.
I couldn't just wait my life to pass and sit there and do nothing.
The first three wait were on the level of body, mind and the soul, but the last one was about answers, it is time doing it, but how should I know as we didn't have the insights we have now and even if I would not have known, it would not have been possible to live those four levels of wait, it was just too much waiting only.

Wisdom is energy and it is alive in the breath and it turns the mind upwards and so does the intellect, it is fire and therefore turns the natural flow of energy which goes in the mind downwards direction of the senses upwards. 
We cannot go against nature and think we will reach Atma, if we keep silent as Baba tells; the world is that bad today because too many responsible people keep silent …
If we keep silent and we don’t do anything, we go downwards in the senses and it is the mind taking over.
Even with meditation, which was in silence, we had to talk about it and there was a message and we had to give lectures and teach the meditation technique to people and we did every day our meditation and to think that we met with the avatar and we have to do nothing anymore is a wrong conclusion, it just means time is doing it and we are on the second step and have to face a different challenge than we had with the first step there it was only about purification of the mind, now it is about Maya and that is illusion and the thick cover of it which is enveloping our lives.
We have to do it, we have to listen, we have to live what he is telling us, there is that ‘we and he is I’ it has to be cognized and it is not cognized in doing nothing and thinking he is doing it for us, that is wrong understanding and illusion, that is the mind and not Atma, that is Maya and not him. He is the doer, but it has to be understood right, he is not doing it for us. 
If we think that he is doing it for us, as we are his instruments, it is wrong understood. ‘You and I are we’, there is no we if there is no sharing or as Baba said, ‘living is loving, loving is giving, giving is sharing, sharing is caring, caring is living and living is loving’. 
 If there is only silence there is not giving and no sharing and it is carelessness and not sharing and there is no living, it is dead and that is the energy level, the breath and Baba tell us ‘truth is my breath’ and if we don’t share truth it probably results in the stoned air which was in the insight around the statue of liberty, that means the USA, the air was stoned, that is not the level of Atma, that is the level of the mind.
What can we do?
We have to share it … that is what we do, we share and we have to think it over and listen to Baba’s words to be able to absorb the wisdom.
What the fourth 'wait' meant was that it is about time and we have to wait to get the right answer. It can be now in two years or in ten years.  
If we keep silent and we don’t share, we are both in the mind or do you really think something is happening if we don’t share and don’t listen to the wisdom in Baba's words?

What miracle would make us live in the Atma, if there is no energy of sharing it and by sharing we get aware of the reflection and Atma is reflection, it is nothing else.
We cannot get aware of it and we are in the mind if we don’t get aware of the reflection and we only get aware of the reflection if we share it. 
That is the divine Darshan, Baba is meeting with his devotees, he is walking the ground and looking in the eyes and to some he was talking … it is his presence and he can only be present if we share, he shared the Atma and the divine light with us and we got aware of it in our own self and that is Darshan, the meaning of the word Darshan, sight of truth is in our own inner view, without Darshan there is no sight of truth and silence is in not a synonym for Darshan, but a mind interpretation.
Atma reacts, reflects and resounds.  
If we keep silent we are in the mind only and that is not Atma.
There is no way we can cognize it if we don’t share, it has to be ‘we’ first and only after we – is done, ‘we and he is I’ and nobody can cognize it for us. We means we have to share it if it is only two or three or a whole group, but it needs to be shared.
Self-realization is in the own self and it cannot be done by others for us and also not by Baba for us.

The divine is a principle, that Atmic principle he is always talking about, we reach it if we transcend the mind and the body and not in keeping silence, that is not transcendence, that is just the absence of speech. We have to meditate to purify the mind and to go beyond the mind, even if we think that silence in words is based on purity, we have to watch and that are ot only words, but also action and most of all thoughts and silence alone doesn't transform our thoughts and we have to watch the character and heart. 
Meditation does transform the thoughts and purify the heart and pure love does if we experience that 'pure love', but we have to listen to him and do as he is telling us, he knows and we don't know and we find always again people telling, that is not for me and that means they are telling, whatever he tells, but I know better and that is mind and not Atma, only if we do an effort and we listen to him, we are in the Atma and not in the mind only. Also the wisdom of the Atma is reflected in our own mind, but by cogninzig it in his words, we get aware inside of the difference between Atman and the mind. 
It is all done by practice and experience, nothing about it is only theoretical knowledge. 

On the path of self-realization we have to be careful, as Baba said, ABC, always be careful. He said it again before I went to Prasanthi when he left the body.
Always be careful means also to not get to a wrong conclusion and to not understand it wrong, but to make sure we get the right answer.
