Omnipresence and the Lord of Death

Lord of Death (Yama) is as omnipresent as Lord Siva! Yama is associated with the body (deha); He cannot affect the individual soul (jiva). Siva is associated with the individual soul, but He won't allow the body to subsist for any length of time. The body is the essential vehicle for the individual soul to understand its real nature. Still who knows when the body may become the target for the attention of Yama? The individual soul, burdened with this destructible body, must grasp the above-mentioned caution and be all-eager to merge in Siva! No single moment that is passed by can be turned back. People usually delay doing some things; yesterday's till today and today's till tomorrow. For the tasks of spiritual discipline, there is no yesterday and no tomorrow. This very moment is the moment! The minute that just elapsed is beyond your grasp; so too, the approaching minute is not yours! Only those who have this understanding engraved in their heart can merge in Siva.

He is telling us here that the Lord of Death, Yama is as omnipresent as Lord Siva.
We got to the conclusion yesterday that nobody is really going into it. 
Yama, the Lord of death is associated with the body (deha). If the words are not listened to and someone said it was too complicated and it is just because of that reason, we have to think it over, we have to listen, think it over and absorb. 
It needs an effort to think it over. It needs an effort to find the right answer, it needs an effort to be able to absorb.
If we feel it is too difficult, some seem to, it is neglected. And neglecting it, thinking it is not okay and just interpretation. If that would be so, contemplation would not be possible. The difference between interpretations or what our mind thinks is actually our projection and turns into interpretation and that is just the opposite way around. How can it be wrong if he tells us to think it over, but we have to get aware of it. He told us even in the interview room, translate, what means interpret it …
Again a type of person who is that convinced in his mind that he knows and gets to the right conclusion and in reality every second word he tells is not real and not what he tells, but delusion.

Lord of Death (Yama) is as omnipresent as Lord Siva! Yama is associated with the body (deha); He cannot affect the individual soul (jiva). 

As we are more in the body than in the soul, he is probably present as danger like it felt last night.

Siva is associated with the individual soul, but He won't allow the body to subsist for any length of time. The body is the essential vehicle for the individual soul to understand its real nature. Still who knows when the body may become the target for the attention of Yama?

With other words, the Lord of death seems watching. We should understand our real nature, what we understand is just that it is part of the mind and delusion and there was no safety feeling and that was not funny really.

The individual soul, burdened with this destructible body, must grasp the above-mentioned caution and be all-eager to merge in Siva!

If we get aware of the destructible body, the pain can be present and it seems that deep rooted, we have to be all-eager to merge in Shiva. Our body can perish and that it can happen anytime and most of all when we are in the midst of the traffic and coming back from a troublesome meeting. I tried to not relax, because I was afraid of it and I was looking around the feeling was a bit like in 'Final Destination', looking around, as the Lord of Death could hide and put us a trap or come in through a backdoor, we didn't expect or in the dream as first degree murder, another scary way of being present what is a kind of information really, but in the moment it feels not very good.

No single moment that is passed by can be turned back. People usually delay doing some things; yesterday's till today and today's till tomorrow. For the tasks of spiritual discipline, there is no yesterday and no tomorrow.

The morning meditation was good actually and we think it over and I definitely don't interpret his words. I still don't understand how he can get to that mind conclusion that someone can interpret his words. If it has to do with truth, it is impossible, it is actually contemplation and not interpretation. He talks a lot about contemplation, we just don't hear it, the principle of Atma is based on contemplation only and if there are people thinking that it is not okay, everything is not okay and that is kind of only in the mind and they build up a mind message about does and don'ts and that doesn't exist, it is because they don't listen.
What is it that the mind gets always to the same conclusions? 
It is anyhow translated and in different languages? Where does that come form that idea that it should not be interpreted? We have to get the truth in the Atmic principle and that can only be understood if we think it over and find the meaning of it.
People don't listen; they think we are not allowed to interpret, not allowed to do anything, no contemplation.
The message is upside down and that is Tamas.
We have to think it over that is duty, we do it. It is the thought for the day and least of all we have to go through the negativity and the negative insights and that pain related to it, but it seems we have to make the experience of it, maybe we understand others better afterwards and can share experiences. If there is no safety feeling it is not very comfortable and we start to feel like fools when we just think that we should trust really, how can anybody trust in that?

This very moment is the moment!

Do you agree, this is the moment, now, now, now … that moment now.

The minute that just elapsed is beyond your grasp; so too, the approaching minute is not yours! Only those who have this understanding engraved in their heart can merge in Siva.

They think they know the avatar, it will be present again in Prema Sai that is also in the future, but it builds up hope and that is part of the message and in some time from now and not in the now.
The question is to be in the now, we have to share it and it will be present again, we have to stay in the now, and when Lord Yama has already taken the body away, we just enjoy the now and the hope, but we have to live life in the now.  

No single moment that is passed by can be turned back. People usually delay doing some things; yesterday's till today and today's till tomorrow. For the tasks of spiritual discipline, there is no yesterday and no tomorrow.

We had a study circle, but talked about the problem of communication and interpretation and finally we agreed that it was about duty and we have to understand peace and the result how ever it is that is upto him, if that is not understood they want to organize everything and make it better than others. 
In the moment of death we just have the now, if we lived in the future in our mind, it will be gone, there is no more future, we have only the now.
The future will be far away like a small star, that was the picture my father showed me after his death, he came in my dream to tell me something after death, it was all dark place and he couldn't get out of it and the light was far away like a small star, that means in his mind was future, in the moment of death we don't have anymore future, we are only in the now and if we never lived in the now, the future of our own self is gone unreachable and far away like a small star.
If we think we interpret Swami's words instead of seeing that contemplation is nothing else but thinking it, getting deep into it, the process going on in our mind in absorbing the wisdom is not understood and nothing gets transformed into experience and everything is on the outer level of believe only and not on the inner oneness with all. 
It is upside down, people are scared of it and think it is wrong and we get into troubles, but it is just the opposite way around.
In a thought for the day some time ago Swami said we should interpret it, see it in our own life, see it in our time and culture, in the present to be able to absorb, it transforms it into experience and we have to make the experience of it otherwise, it is just theoretical knowledge and that is a burden and painful. 
The 'I am that' is a principle only and we have to know the transcendental state without thoughts, there is only love left, nothing can be wrong really, we are either in pure awareness of a transcendental being state or we are in thoughts and that is not in the now, but it is mind. In that sense we should do everything to find the truth in it. Truth is true, we think it over, we transform it into experience, that it the main issue, that is essential, as long as it is only theoretical it is not true. We have to make it real. The principle of 'I am that' is a transcendental being.
We do it as duty and go on. 
But if it destroys the feelins of safety it is like being in a suspense movie and Yama, the God of death is watching, we wonder what trap could there be and we don't relax and think it over. It didn't feel good actually and not uplifting, but it is definitely not inspiring and not really joyful, nevertheless, the omnipresence of the Lord of Death, it is just the wrong Lord as it seems.
