| Evolution of Love Part 2 |
This shouldn’t come as a surprise to your Lordships as many of you have practiced in different courts across the country and have been a part of various High Courts as Hon’ble Judges and even Chief Justices. You have been a part of not only the judicial framework but also a part of the culture of the States wherein you resided during such tenure. And there is no doubt that with every High Court, you have dispensed justice as if it was your parent High Court and the people, your own. However, the Covid-19 crisis and the Delhi centric hearings taking place before the Hon’ble Delhi High Court and the Hon’ble Supreme Court make us wonder if Delhi is little more Indian than rest of India. And such fears may not be misplaced. Statements such as ‘Delhi Represents the Nation’ and ‘Delhi must be given its oxygen quota [fixed by Court] by whatever means’ may have been off-the-cuff and unintentional but do convey a sense of priority for Delhi. The direction, no matter how conveniently worded, to the Centre was to ensure 700 MT of oxygen to Delhi at any cost. There was a special preference given to Delhi which was not available for other States. It was indicated that Delhi is more entitled than others. Let us take this example, Madhya Pradesh, like Delhi, has no oxygen producing units of its own. However, with proactive coordination with industrialists and transport traders, it was able to secure few plants, containers, transport and continuous supply. It was proactive in making request for Oxygen Express. While it is still touch and go for Madhya Pradesh, the government acted in the nick of time. In Delhi, the High Court and the Supreme Court have directed the Central Government to bring oxygen to Delhi’s border. No such privilege was extended to Madhya Pradesh. Hopefully, the Centre will let us know if the same was at the cost of another State that was proactive in booking transport and supply and did not have the privilege of being Delhi. In fact, a report suggests that Rajasthan, Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir and Jharkhand are likely to be affected by such diversions of oxygen supply to Delhi on behest of Hon’ble Courts. Maybe we all are equal, but Delhi residents are little more equal than others. Similarly, Uttar Pradesh has been battling with shortage of oxygen and Remdesivir injections. There was a shortage of oxygen in Manipur (which was attended to by Assam in the spirit of cooperative federalism). There have been incidents reported in Rajasthan where Remdesivir has been out of stock in entire districts. In fact, Rajasthan has been asked by the Hon’ble Supreme Court to wait till next Monday to plead its grievances. The severity of the oxygen crisis in Punjab is apprehended to be underreported. Chhattisgarh has seen high levels of positivity rate. The crowding of senior citizens outside vaccination centers in Mumbai may be more dangerous than political rallies, considering the age group is more vulnerable. Yet, the hearing before the Hon’ble Supreme Court was limited to Delhi. There is urgency only for Delhi. This reminds me of a political slogan that may be suitably modified- Delhi is India and India is Delhi. To be fair to the Hon’ble Supreme Court, they did refer to Mumbai briefly, another Metropolitan to commend its ‘Model’. However, the commendation rebels against the fact that Mumbai was the epicentre of second wave, the deaths are highest in Maharashtra and that there are enough statistics to show that Mumbai allowed the second wave to go unchecked for months with its alarmingly low testing. I will believe that the model being referred to was limited to utilisation of oxygen. However, maybe a mention of Assam which has almost become self-sufficient in oxygen through prompt coordination with industries or Odisha, which has supplied oxygen to many States would have been better. But then, maybe these States are a victim of tyranny of distance and are not as glamorous as the ‘City That Never Sleeps.’ Maybe, their Lordships are guided by the limited reading of a section of media. Individually, these instances may not mean much. Collectively, they indicate that the Hon’ble Courts are governed by the factors of proximity and self-preservation. They are likely to react when the deaths are closer to home and have more attention of the media. And there may not be anything extraordinary about it. The Hon’ble Justices are humans as well. They are affected by what they see, hear and read in the media. The closer the calamity, swifter the response. However natural, the swift reaction may cause harm to the interest of other States who are reeling under the same pressure. There is a difference between seeking all possible resources and all resources. The hearings do indicate that ‘all resources’ are meant for Delhi and other States, have to divide whatever is remaining. This cannot be allowed to continue; not the hearings, rather the perception. The perception that Hon’ble Courts in Delhi will prioritise Delhi at the cost of others will only damage the institution more. Maybe the situation could have been different, had there been regional benches of the apex Court and such regional benches would have been seized of the region-specific concerns. Maybe it could have been different if the Hon’ble Courts in Delhi were not accessible to only a select few lawyers. Maybe it would have been different if Courts did not let their territorial jurisdiction get better of the need to be fair and equitable to other States. The states may compete in the spirit of cooperative federalism, courts shouldn’t. Post-script I have not spoken of the inherent problem of Courts directing and micro-managing day to day affairs of the Executive. I will not speak of the fact that lawyers have decided to replace the wisdom of doctors in managing the pandemic. I will not speak of the discussion in a High Court (and not ICMR) as to whether Dexamethasone is an alternative to Remdesivir. I will not speak of the fact that government officials are spending more time before the Courts rather than actually working to save lives. Because these are issues concerning a larger debate on judicial activism and whether it has reached a destructive stage. I have not spoken of the much-required audit of the Courts to determine how judicial delay has added to the misery in the pandemic. The unilateral offer of a corporate to produce 1000MT of oxygen per day was delayed by 5 crucial days on account of Hon’ble Court’s indecisiveness. To put things in perspective, such quantum of oxygen is 300 MT in excess of the per day requirement of Delhi. There are numerous roads, highway and public infrastructure projects in abeyance due to judicial battles and processes. Maybe, and just maybe, the flow of oxygen and medical help could have been better with better means of transport and supporting infrastructure. There are hundreds of undertrial prisoners suffering in jail attributable to judicial delays and are now at the mercy of the pandemic in overcrowded jails. Yet again, these are matters of judicial conduct that require a larger debate and maybe better times. I have specifically not referred to the Bengal violence escaping the attention of the Courts and the otherwise hyperactive Bar. I will not go into the fact that the Hon’ble Supreme Court has refused to even list the petition on Bengal violence for hearing. As I stated above, maybe the proximity of courts determines the value attached to deaths. Yet, I have to remain silent. I know the moment I seek to draw attention to the same, the concerns will be dismissed as political. I can only hope that the Courts will use their discretion equitably, and equally. There is a lot to be spoken. However, in an ideal world, such criticism would call for a debate and not contempt. We are not in ideal world. Therefore, the author issues her/his unconditional apology for any feelings that may have been hurt and any disrespect that may have been inferred. There is no intention to lower to the majesty of the Hon’ble Courts or commit any contempt. Praying for a safe and happy vacation for Hon’ble Lordships. Yours faithfully, |
| When God of War returned home, he found his wife in distress and was ridiculed. When a soldier got angry, he may kill someone! When the God of War became angry, he slaughtered all civilians of a city. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> “Young master, we are here on behalf of the master to ask you to return and inherit the position head of the house.” A man wearing a suit and leather shoes said respectfully to a younger man who was in twenties. There are more than 20 ferocious men in black clothing standing behind the man in a suit, which didn’t look like normal civilians. The young man was in a rugged army uniform, he had a mature aura surrounding him and he didn’t seem to act like his age. He glanced at the man in the suit and scoffed, “I’m not part of the Stone family anymore, not after they killed my parents.” “Does that old fogey think that I’m his dog? Does he think that I’m at his beck and call?” The man in the suit was flustered, he quickly said, “Young master, the master regretted his actions. Please do…” “Enough. I have no intention to return and that’s what I’ve decided the moment I step out of that house.” Andrew Stone interrupted the man in the suit without hesitation. “Tell Ryan Stone that I’ll destroy the Stone family if he ever bothers me again.” He didn’t give them any face at all and just walked away. The man in the suit took an extremely deep breath after Andrew disappeared from his sight. His sweat was seeping through his clothes. Only Andrew would dare to reject the offer to be the head of the Stone family, the most influential family in the River Capital. A black car with a red flag was awaiting Andrew’s arrival. A strong man stood up straight when he saw Andrew. He saluted and exclaimed, “The deputy commander of the Seven League in Southland, Phoenix Morgan, salutes you, commander!” Andrew was a legend in the army and was an important asset to the army! He joined the Northland army when he was 20 and had many achievements within the past 5 years. He founded the Seven League and it was known across every frontier. The Seven League was not only the enemy’s nightmare, but they were also the sturdy metal wall protecting the H country! He was a legend. Even Phoenix who was the deputy commander in Southland admired and respected him. Andrew nodded and got into the car. “Phoenix, it's been a long time. You’re now the deputy commander.” “Commander, my life belongs to you no matter what position I hold. If it wasn’t for you, I might be long dead.” Andrew smiled plainly and didn’t say anything. After a while, Phoenix thought of something and said, “Commander, I got the information you wanted me to look into. It was the Turner family’s doing. They bought 80% of the Clark family’s properties with low price.” Andrew’s stern face turned dark, he gritted his teeth and said, “The Turner family!” Half a year ago, the Clark family which was the top 3 family in the K City found themselves in trouble. Andrew’s stepfather, Peter Clark, was duped and he committed suicide. Peter was Andrew’s father’s best friend. Andrew’s parents died when he was 8 and Peter took him in after that. Peter treated Andrew very well and treated him like his own son. He even agreed to let his daughter, Emily Clark, marry Andrew! One could say that Peter was the nicest person Andrew had ever met apart from his parents. But he never thought that he would only get the news about Peter’s death half a year after the incident happened. He was the commander and was a legend protecting the country. But he didn’t even know about the death of the person closest to him. Who could comprehend his feelings? He returned this time to make the Turner family pay for their doings. The Turner family was the most influential in K City. The Clark family experienced a quick growth in the past 2 years and the Turner family wasn’t happy about it. They pulled every trick in the book and tried to destroy the Clark family as soon as possible, in order to maintain their position as the most influential family. “Commander, I’ll go wipe the Turner family out.” “No need, I’ll do it myself.” Phoenix thought for a while and said, “Commander, with your power and status, you don’t have to dirty your own hands.” Andrew suddenly smirked and his face then turned bleak, “This is my own matter.” Phoenix stopped saying anything after that. The commander doing things with his own hand would be much more powerful than Phoenix. “Drive me to the Clark House, I want to go home.” “Yes sir!” replied Phoenix. They arrived at the Clark House 10 minutes later. Andrew told Phoenix to leave for the time being as he wanted some time alone. He took out an old family photo from his inner pocket after Phoenix walked away. All these years on the battlefield, this photo was the sole thing that gave him the strength to get through every crisis. He stared at the people he missed dearly in the photo and looked at the Clark House. Memories came back rushing to him. He missed the solemn old man, the little girl with pigtails who would follow him around and called him big brother and the gentle lady who was always smiling. He touched the photo with his fingers and looked at the solemn old man’s face. Tears rolled down his cheeks. “Dad, don’t worry. I will take good care of Emily and Rosa.” Andrew stared at the seal on the Clark House’s main entrance. Waves of emotions surged in his heart. “Do you see that? That’s the Clark House, and it’s mine from now on,” said a man. 5 young people walked up to the entrance of the Clark House. The young man in front of the line looked like someone from an influential family judging by the way he dressed. “Mr. West, are you serious? I thought it was sealed?” “Ha-ha, if I said it’s mine then it’s mine. My dad promised that he would buy this place and give it to me on my birthday. If you don’t believe me, I can bring you in right now,” said the young man all pleased. “Wow, that’s so cool.” “Yeah, Mr. West. That’s so rad.” They pushed the door to the entrance as they talked. “Stop!” Andrew growled. The young man who was in front looked at Andrew as he heard him growled. He looked him up and down and said, “Are you talking to me?” “Repeat what you just said!” said Andrew with a threatening voice. The young man was startled, he inspected Andrew’s face carefully and after a good 10 seconds, he laughed heartily and said, “I know who you are. You are that person who grew up in the Clark family and got married to Emily. What’s your name again? Andrew Stone?” Albert West continued saying sarcastically, “You don’t know what happened to the Clark family yet, right? Let me tell you, the Clark family was conning the people with their low-quality products half a year ago and their business was seized. Your father-in-law, Peter Clark, had committed suicide out of shame as he was afraid to take responsibility for the incident.” Andrew’s fist was clenched so tightly it was cracking when he heard what Albert said. Peter treated everything with the utmost respect. To him, dignity and credibility were more important than his life, and still, he was slandered even after death! “What? Did you come back to continue living under the Clark family? Okay, the Clark family is gone but you still have me. If you kneel and beg me, I can consider letting you watch the house. You might be slightly better than a watchdog.” Albert laughed frantically and the people around him followed suit. “Why? Are you mad? Are you going to bite me?” Albert continued to provoke Andrew. “Albert West, you’ll be my first gift to the Turner family.” He walked towards Albert as he said that. Albert snorted. He crossed his arm as he said, “Are you going to fight me?” The moment he said that two bodyguards in black who was arranged by the Turner family to protect Albert came out of somewhere. Albert said blithely, “Both you of, cut off his legs.” As he finished his sentence, he noticed that Andrew disappeared all of a sudden and the two bodyguards were already on the floor. It happened so fast that Albert didn’t even see his attacks. The fight was over in an instant. “Albert, you shouldn’t slander my father.” Andrew’s words were as cold as a sharp blade, stabbing Albert in the chest. Albert was breaking out in cold sweat seeing how strong Andrew was. “You, you,” Albert stuttered as he trembled in fear. Andrew didn’t let him continue, he grabbed Albert’s throat with his cold hands and lifted him off the ground. >>>>>>>>>>>> |
| I Love this Japanese Doctor👇👇 You too will love for sure...😄😄😄 *Q*: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true? *A*: Heart only good for so many beats, and that's it... Don't waste time on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart not make you live longer; its like saying you extend life of a car by driving faster. Want to live longer? Take nap. *Q*: Should I reduce my alcohol intake? *A*: Oh no. Wine made from fruit. Fruit very good. Brandy distilled wine, that means they take water out of fruity bit so you get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made of grain. Grain good too. Bottoms up! *Q*: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program? *A*: Can't think of one, sorry. My philosophy: No pain...good! *Q*: Aren't fried foods bad for you? *A*: YOU NOT LISTENING! Food fried in vegetable oil. How getting more vegetable be bad? *Q*: Is chocolate bad for me? *A*: You crazy?!? HEL-LO-O!! Cocoa bean! Another vegetable! It best feel-good food around! *Q*: Is swimming good for your figure? *A*: If swimming good for figure, explain whale to me. *Q*: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle? *A*: Hey! 'Round' is also a shape! Well... I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets. And remember: Finally the Japanese Doctor summed up: Look mister, Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Beer in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride my life was"!!!!! Eat whatever you like because you will still DIE, don't allow motivational speakers deceive you. 1. The inventor of the treadmill had died at the age of 54 2. The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57 3. The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41 4. The best footballer in the world Maradona, died at the age of 60. BUT 5. The KFC inventor died at 94. 6. Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88 7. Imagine, cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102 8. The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 in an earthquake 9. Hennessey inventor dies at 98. How did these doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life? The rabbit is always jumping up and down but it lives for only 2 years and the turtle that doesn’t exercise at all, lives 400 years. So, Take some rest, Chill, Stay cool, eat, drink and enjoy your life. You will still die. |

(A) Suppose some water accumulates; after a time, the body of an insect forms itself; it begins to move; it KNOWS that it exists. A piece of bread is thrown in a corner and is left there for a time; soon the form of a worm makes its appearance; it begins to move; it KNOWS that it exists. The egg of a hen, after the application of the body heat for a certain time, suddenly breaks open and a little chick appears; it begins to move; it KNOWS that it exists. The sperm of the man germinates in the womb of the woman, and after the nine-month period is delivered as the baby, and, begins to go through the states of sleeping and waking, and carries out the physical functions; after a few months, the same sperm, now in the form of an infant, begins to KNOW that it exists, and starts acquiring further information from the mother, that it is a boy or girl, etc., etc. (B) In these four cases-the insect, the worm, the chicken, and the human body -what is really born? Is it not, says Maharaj, the knowledge "I AM," the Consciousness that is really born, along with the two states of sleeping and waking? This Consciousness -identical in all four cases - which has suddenly appeared in each of the four types of forms, finding itself without any kind of "support," takes resort in the particular physical form and identifies with it. In other words, what was originally without any shape or form, the message "I AM"-the mere knowledge of existence generally (not anyone in particular)-has mistakenly identified itself with one particular body, accepted its birth, and thereafter lives in the constant shadow of the terror of "death." (C) This "I AM-ness," this consciousness without which, as Maharaj says, one would not know that one exists-and which, therefore, everyone loves most and would preserve at any cost as long as possible-is the only "capital" one is born with. This Consciousness cannot exist without a physical form, which is merely the consequence of the germination of the father's sperm, which is itself the essence of the food consumed by the parents. This is the analysis of the process which has resulted in the birth of an individual body containing Consciousness, a process for the start of which the concerned "individual" has never been consulted! If one thus clearly sees the process of what has come into existence, can there be any room for an individual personality in which one could take pride, something which is merely a bundle of memories and habits, without any substance? (D) If, then, there can really be no individual personality, the question arises: for whom is there any liberation or Moksha? It is only in the case of the human being that this question arises, because no other form of life has the intelligence to question its own existence or source. Liberation comes about, says Maharaj, when the knowledge "I AM" realizes: (I) That it has always been unlimited and totally free, and that it is itself the cause of all creation-if there is no consciousness, there can be no world. (II) That it has, however, created its own shackles of bondage by self-limitation-by identifying itself with the individual body. (III) That it has no form or design-that it is the "quality" of the food essence (which has taken the shape of the body), like the quality of sweetness in sugar. (IV) That, when the food essence (the body) becomes old and "dies," its quality, the knowledge "I AM," also disappears-i.e., being no longer subject to the three Gunas, becomes NIRGUNA, and merges with REALITY. Who dies?! Maharaj repeatedly sums up his teaching by asking his listeners to go beyond his words "BACK TO THE SOURCE" and abide there-the Source being REALITY, one's true state, prior to the arrival of Consciousness, when there were no needs of any kind, the state prior to the illusion of the stream of events (like an illness in a normally healthy body)-conception, birth of the body, a lifetime, and finally the death of the body. "You" are always separate from the entire "happening," merely witnessing it; the witnessing ceases at the end of the happening: who dies?! To know with definite conviction, says Maharaj, that you are neither in the body nor in the mind, though aware of both, is already self-knowledge. Liberation is not a matter of acquisition, but a matter of faith and conviction that you have ALWAYS been FREE, and a matter of courage to act on this conviction. There is nothing to change; it is only when the very idea of changing is seen as false that the changeless can come into its own! Maharaj's listeners are struck by the wholly different approach in his teachings. For instance, on the subject of love, the usual teaching has always been that there cannot be any spiritual progress unless one develops a feeling of love for others. This approach could quite easily be a matter of frustration to an honest seeker who knows that he does not-and cannot-love others like himself. What a relief, therefore, when Maharaj says: "Be true to your own self. Love yourself absolutely. Do not pretend that you love others as yourself. Unless you have realized others as one with yourself, you cannot love them. Don't pretend to be what you are not, don't refuse to be what you are. Your love for others is the result of self-knowledge, not its cause." And finally, what an encouragement to hear Maharaj say: "What you have learned here becomes the seed. You may forget it apparently. But it will live, and in due season sprout and grow and bring forth flowers and fruits. ALL will happen by itself. You need not do anything: only, don't prevent it." |
| *WHO IS KILLING HUNDREDS OF THOSE WHO HAVE JUST DEFEATED COVID. IT'S BLACK FUNGUS* Dear all, This is to bring to your information a dangerous disease which is killing people by the hundreds AFTER they have recovered from the dreaded Covid-19 infection. The disease is *Mucormycosis* and can be fatal. It catches on to those who have been on oxygen support for five days or more. So, the oxygen which gives you life, actually becomes your death sentence. It's that dangerous. Mucormycosis, simply known as *Black Fungus*, develops in the nasal tract due to poor quality of water used, through which the piped oxygen in hospitals passes to make it hydrated oxygen, before it reaches the patient's nostrils. It's very much like the fungus which develops on bread due to moisture, if kept for a long time. It starts from the nostril, travels towards the eye and then towards the brain. It paralyses the nerves it travels through. *So, first it’s the eye that loses vision very swiftly AND permanently! If not stopped, it enters the brain and then it's a matter of a day or two before the person paralyses, has multiple organ failure or sudden heart attack and dies* For any body on oxygen support in a hospital, it's crucial to keep looking around the nostrils for any black pigmentation. As soon as it's noticed even as the smallest dot, sirens should ring, and anti-fungal vaccination should start immediately because this is the only treatment of the disease. Call an eye surgeon or specialist at once on video call and show him or share a pic. (The injection dosage is 5 ml per kg weight. So if a person is 60 kg, it should be 300 ml, and if more, upto 80 kg, 400 ml.) *The oxygen supply also needs to be sanitised immediately. While only distilled water should be used for hydrating oxygen, in all hospitals, due to callosity, negligence or downright ignorance, tap water or any other water available around is used by the para medical staff. What is worse is that the container for this water for hydrating the oxygen is seldom cleaned leading to concentration of viruses and bacteria in the piped supply system, which cures you from Covid temporarily and then kills you with the deadly "Black Fungus". Also, if tap water or even purified / boiled water is used in the humidifier, over a period of time, there'll be deposits of impurities, including micro-metals, minerals / salts which make things worse. Sadly, even many senior doctors tend to overlook this crucial aspect of the life-giving oxygen supply* Hundreds of people who were on oxygen support and had recently recovered from Covid are dying of this disease everyday. Because, by the time the black pigmentation is noticed by family members at home, it's already too late and even doctors are helpless. The most unfortunate part is the complete lack of awareness about this contamination in oxygen supply and about the deadly disease itself. I have not seen any discussion or government advisory on any WhatsApp group or anywhere on social media which shows our complete and widespread ignorance about this dangerous "Black Fungus" lurking in the oxygen supply system itself. *CHECKING FOR BLACK FUNGUS ON PATIENTS ON OXYGEN SUPPORT SHOULD BE MADE AN ESSENTIAL PART OF COVID CONTROL PROTOCOL IMMEDIATELY IF PRECIOUS LIVES SAVED FROM COVID ARE TO BE SAVED FROM THIS DANGEROUS DISEASE* I myself got to know about this only today, because my childhood schoolmate, my soulmate-brother is lying in KGMU ICU precisely with this ailment, which threatens his life now. Just three days ago, he was taken off oxygen support and his family and all of us, his friends were so happy when he was shifted to the general ward and we were expecting him to go home in a couple of days, some even asking for a party! Today, he's back in ICU fighting for life. May he get well soon. We are all praying for him. Please spread word about this disease so you won't be in a similar state of despair and helplessness like his family and all of us, his well-wishers, and friends. I appeal to you with folded hands, please do tell everyone about this, especially those on oxygen support, and if you know any government officials of any rank, please do share this information with them. You might just save a life 🙏🙏🙏 |
Reason for Different Religions: Questioner: "When there is only ONE, why are there so many different religions in this world"? Ma: "Because He is infinite, there are infinite varieties of conceptions of Him and of paths leading to him". Place of Destruction and Ruin Questioner: "How is the idea of a benevolent God compatible with ruin and destruction in the history of peoples and lives of families and individuals"? Ma: "Do you believe that God is the creator of this world and therefore its Lord"? Questioner agrees. Ma: "Very well, If God is the Lord of the world, He can do with it as he pleases. Suppose you have grown beautiful flowers in your garden, but decide to plant fruit trees in their place, won't you have to remove the flowers? If you have a fine house, but wish to build a larger and better one on the same plot, you demolish the old one. The freedom that is yours in small things, God exercises in great ones. In both is He, in destruction as well as in construction. The history of nations, families and individuals is the great Lila (divine sport) that He stages with Himself." Ananda Varta Quarterly XIII/3/94 On Meditation and Union with the Eternal: The spiritual aspirant should practice dhyana (steady meditation) in the proper posture (with the back straight) and deeply meditate on his Ishta (beloved deity). He should purge himself of all outside thoughts and consider himself pure. Once he is absorbed in genuine dhyana, worldly attractions lose all their appeal and then worldly enjoyments cannot possibly touch him. Meditation opens one's true being to the Light, to that which is Eternal. In true meditation, Reality is contacted. When the movement of your true nature sets in, then, because it is directed solely towards God, the knots of the heart will be unraveled. Then you should know that the current of your life is turned towards the Eternal. Give yourself up to the wave, and you will be absorbed by the current - having dived into the sea, you do not return any more. The Eternal Himself is the wave that floods the shore, so that you may be carried away. Those who can surrender themselves to this aim will be accepted by Him. But if your attention remains directed towards the shore, you cannot proceed - after bathing you will return to the shore. If your aim is the Supreme, the Ultimate, you will be led on by the movement of your own true nature. There are waves that carry away and waves that pull back. Those who can give themselves up will be taken by Him. In the guise of the wave He holds out His hand and calls you. On Silence: Even when speech is supressed, the activity of the mind still continues. All the same silence helps control the mind. As the mind dives deeper, its activity slackens off, and then one comes to feel that He Who provides for everything will arrange matters. When the mind is agitated by thoughts of worldly things, the benefit that should be gained by abstaining from speech is lost. When the mind is centered on God, it keeps advancing steadily, and along with this emerges purity of body and mind. To let thoughts dwell on objects of the senses is waste of energy. By constantly dwelling on the thought of God all the granthis (knots) that make up ego are unraveled, and that which has to be realized will be realized. To say 'through silence He is realized' is not correct, because Supreme Knowledge does not come 'through' anything. Supreme Knowledge reveals itself. For destroying the 'veil', there are suitable spiritual disciplines and practices. |
| When I was about 7 years old, I accompanied my father to the funeral of a friend of his, someone who I didn't even know. When we got there, I stayed in a corner waiting for the time to pass. Then a man approached me and said, 'Enjoy life kid, be happy because time flies. Look at me now, I didn't enjoy it.' Then he passed his hand over my head and left. My father, before leaving, forced me to say goodbye to the dead person. When I looked in the coffin, I was horrified to see that the man in the coffin was the same man who had spoken to me! I was so traumatised I couldn't sleep properly. I had terrible nightmares. I was terrified of being alone. I couldn't sleep without a night light for many years. I saw many psychologists, endured much turmoil throughout my adolescent years. It got better as I aged, but I would still occasionally wake up screaming in fear. Years later, I discovered something incredible that changed my life. The dead person had an identical twin.😱😱😉😉😂😂 |
| Tried to explain the irony in the present situation: “ Never have I seen such a mess in life. The air is pure but wearing a mask is mandatory. Roads are empty but it is impossible to go on long drive. People have clean hands but there is a ban on shaking hands. Friends have time to sit together but they cannot get together. The cook inside you is crazy, but you cannot call anyone for lunch or dinner. Every Monday, the heart longs to go out, but the weekend does not seem to end. Those who have money have no way to spend it. Those who don't have money have no way to earn it. There is enough time on hand but you can't fulfill your dreams. The culprit is all around but cannot be seen. A world full of irony! - Be positive but test negative.”❤️ |
