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.
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.
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.
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.
