A painter was asked to paint a boat by a rich man. The painter brought with him paint and brushes and began to paint the boat a bright red, as the owner asked him. While painting, he noticed that there was a small hole in the hull, and quietly repaired it. When finished painting, he received his money and left. The next day, the owner of the boat came to the painter and presented him with a nice cheque, much much higher than the payment for painting. The painter was surprised and said "You've already paid me for painting the boat Sir!" "But this is not for the paint job. It's for having repaired the hole in the boat." "Ah! But it was such a small service... certainly it's not worth paying me such a high amount for something so insignificant." "My dear friend, you do not understand. Let me tell you what happened. When I asked you to paint the boat, I forgot to mention about the hole. When the boat dried, my kids took the boat and went on a fishing trip. They did not know that there was a hole. I was not at home at that time. When I returned and noticed they had taken the boat, I was desperate because I remembered that the boat had a hole. Imagine my relief and joy when I saw them returning from fishing. Then, I examined the boat and found that you had repaired the hole! You see, now, what you did? You saved the life of my children! I do not have enough money to pay your 'small' good deed." *Reflections* So, no matter who, when or how. Just continue to help, sustain, wipe tears, listen attentively and carefully repair all the 'leaks' you find, because you never know when one is in need of us or when God holds a pleasant surprise for us to be helpful and important to someone_ You may have repaired numerous 'boat holes' along the way... of several people without realizing how many lives you've saved. *✨So Keep up the Good work no matter how small it may seem to be ... *Today i did like to take a pause and say a thank to Everyone who Repaired my boat during these challanging times in every way like Good Wishes, thoughts, love, care & prayers..., it made a big difference in my life. Thank you & May God bless you always* 🤗 🙏 |
Why we need to *Avoid* watching too much of breaking news & panel discussions on Indian TV news channels now a days!? Because, they all follow *Zohnerism*!!! What is this notorious concept of *Zohnerism*? *Zohnerism* - is all about twisting of simple facts to confuse people! To know more about it, please read this: In 1997, 14 year old Nathan Zohner presented his science fair project to his classmates, seeking to ban a highly toxic chemical from its everyday use. The chemical in question? Dihydrogen monoxide. Throughout his presentation, Zohner provided his audience scientifically correct evidence as to why this chemical should be banned. He explained that dihydrogen monoxide: -----Causes severe burns while it’s in gas form. -----Corrodes and rusts metal. -----Kills countless amounts of people annually. -----Is commonly found in tumors, acid rain etc. -----Causes excessive urination and bloating if consumed. -----Zohner also noted that the chemical is able to kill you if you depend on it and then experience an extended withdrawal. He then asked his classmates if they actually wanted to ban dihydrogen monoxide. And so, 43 out of the 50 children present voted to ban this clearly toxic chemical. However… this chemical isn’t typically considered toxic at all. In fact, dihydrogen monoxide is simply H2O, which is nothing but water. Nathan Zohner’s experiment wasn’t a legitimate attempt to ban water, but instead an experiment to get a representation of how gullible people can really be. Also, all of the points that Zohner used to convey his point were 100% factually correct; he just skewed all of the information in his favour by omitting certain facts. In recognition of his experiment, journalist James K. Glassman coined the term "Zohnerism" to refer to "the use of a true fact to lead a scientifically and mathematically ignorant public to a false conclusion". And this occurs a lot more often than you think, especially when politicians, conspiracy theorists, etc., use proven facts to persuade people into believing false claims. The fact that people can mislead, and be misled so easily, is highly unsettling. |

| Purity of the intellect gives one the power of correct reasoning, but purity of the heart gives one the contact of God. Intellectuality is a quality of the power of reason, and wisdom is the liberating quality of the soul. When reason is purified by calm discrimnation it metamarphoses into wisdom. Pure wisdom and the divine understanding of a pure heart are the two sides of the same faculty. Indeed, the purity of heart, or feeling, referred to by Jesus depends on the guidance of all action by discriminative wisdom—the adjusting of human attitudes and behaviour by the sacred soul qualities of love, mercy, service, self- control, self-discipline, conscience, and intuition. |
What is needed in order to recognize one’s Self? Is it the mind? The knower of the mind is consciousness. The Self can only be known through consciousness. Here, the intellect is of no use. Intellect is the essence of the collective mind. Consciousness has to be realized through consciousness, which is prior to the mind. You say you know the flow of the mind and yet you flow with the mind. That is false. That means there is no conviction of how you are and till such time, fear is there. The greatness of the whole world is in the heart of a human being. However, he fails to understand that. He considers himself as the body and suffers misery. All great sages of the world became so by meditating on their own consciousness. It uncovers itself and acquires greatness. That which was already there came to know ‘It is’. This is called birth. The name maya is given to birth. Maya is the behavior of gunas. Its source is consciousness. It is the knowingness created at birth. Birth implies beingness. You are prior to that knowledge. All this is the sport of your own consciousness. Whatever is felt, fancied or known is actually not you. One who knows this is the Self. The creation, sustenance and dissolution of consciousness happens on the base of the supreme Self. All deities are a projection of consciousness. It is the result of the action of guna-maya. You are the support of all these. Maya means the experience of consciousness. Dying does not mean annihilation; it is like the setting of the sun. No one has death as such. The matchstick is the food for the flame. When it gets extinguished, it does not mean that it has died. The apparent conviction that one’s body is the Self is what is called maya. It has an infinite number of names. Maya, herself, has been given the status of a deity. There is no truth at all in this world, hence it is not necessary to observe its rules and regulations. It is fictitious. Consciousness is moving about as beingness. Consciousness that is experienced is in fact not real. The meaning that floats through the feeling ‘I am’ is unreal. For example, to say I am like this, I have done this, etc., is unreal. When consciousness goes, the world also disappears. Consciousness and the world are not separate. The work is done for the one who clearly knows his own Self. Consciousness has to know only this: the form, which is fancied and known through consciousness, is not one’s true nature. Consciousness means the Guru, and the Guru means consciousness. They are not apart. The ‘I am’ was not known, and is now known. This is the primordial maya. The Lord or a blade of grass is the same for the one who has surrendered to the Sadguru. Maya means self-love. Whatever consciousness achieves is never full; it is incomplete, as it is not true. This attitude is born in one in whom the Paramatman wants to manifest. Therefore, constantly remember the word of the Sadguru. Become one with your consciousness. The oil disappears after giving light. Similarly, your consciousness will spread throughout the world and then disappear. Then what will remain? It is the pure nature of Paramatman. Continue with your silent repetition of the mantra. Then the Guru-ness in your heart will suddenly burn intensely and show you how it rises and sets. Your true nature will be revealed. |

| Questioner: If the consciousness in all the different forms is identical, then why do thoughts and actions differ from one human being to another? Maharaj: The thoughts and actions belong to the body-mind and the body-mind is the essence of the five elements. The nature of the form depends on the various degrees of the five elements and the three gunas. The thoughts and deeds depend on the conditioning received right from the time the consciousness is there. Without the consciousness, there would be only dead forms. Consciousness and the body are kept in working condition by the food and medicine that we imbibe. In each form the thoughts, words, and deeds depend not only on the conditioning the form has received after it has been created; but they depend on even earlier conditioning at the time of conception. The consciousness was latent in that birth chemical. How amusing it is that one identifies with the body. How long have you been following spirituality? Q: For forty years. I was following the "Who am I" of Ramana Maharshi, and I have read the bookof Maharaj's teachings. M: So far, so good. What do you understand about your own Self? What are you? Q: Consciousness. M: The Ultimate is prior to any experience. "I Amness" is the beginning of experience. On the Ultimate there appeared this knowingness, and the question arose, "Who or what am I?" That feeling of being is not colored by form. It is just a feeling of being, of "I Amness". That was the first experience. Q: This is Maya. M: Because you don't get the answer to "Who am I," you give the reply that this is Maya. You cannot catch it by a reply. With what do you identify? Q: I am the Brahman. M: This is not your direct experience. You are just repeating what you have read or heard. What do you think you are? Q: I have experienced.... M: The experience can be there when the "I Amness" is there, but prior to this experience "I Am", what was the state? Q: I do not know. M: I am talking to you because you have the wisdom to understand. Q: Can I stop this "I Amness" and be before the "I Amness"? M: What natural processes can you stop? Everything is spontaneous. Presently you are in the consciousness, which is stirring, vibrant. Don't think you are something separate from this stirring, vibrant consciousness. You are part of the play of this consciousness. You, the consciousness, are the product of the food consumed. At the level of active consciousness, which is Self, and which is in activity, there cannot be identity of a body. Q: How can I be convinced of this? M: When you remain still in your Self, then you receive the conviction. You stay in quietude. |
