Everyone has inner sound in his or her body. Based on that inner
sound, we lead our daily life. A dumb person, a deaf person, or a
person without feelings - also will have this inner sound. A healthy
nervous system will ensure that the inner sound reverberates in the
body. Sadguru will help you to achieve this.
A body without life is like a piece of wood. Many times, relatives
try to keep the body of a person who is in coma, artificially alive
with life support systems. Doctors too would have lost hopes. But
relatives keep the ending delayed. The same body then gets cremated
and the body, which was full of energy, has now turned in to ashes
and has lost its energetic form.
Finding that fine line between life - non-life and life is the great
state of Brahma Jnana. My body is getting goose pimples as I speak
of this. Even today, this is being sought after by great Yogis and
Sadhakas.
There is a big bell in England. Four persons came to it and checked
it on four directions. They argued with each other about its composition.
Then a fifth person came and then went around the big bell. The fifth
friend said that they all were right and that the bell had been cast
with different metals on different sides. This is what is known as
frog in a well. The frog thinks that the entire world is the well.
One day it some how escapes and is wonder struck with what is outside.
It then goes to a near by pond tries to rise a family. It prays that
its father is born as its child now so that it can show the father
this big and great world.
Like the frog, we all are blinded by our ignorance. We should not
only learn the TATTVA (principle), but we should also learn the working
of that principle and respect it. We are busy discussing about fake
babas and Swamis. We are discussing about their cheating. But first
learn about their teaching.
Don't think that I am going to give you all Shakti Paata by touching
you. No. Shakti Paata will happen by itself. This SAMUDRA SANNIDHI
is being held in this place, which was recently affected by Tsunami.
I pray for the souls who have been affected. Natural disasters have
happened and will happen in future too.
Imagine this. If you are walking on a busy street and a scooterist
goes on your foot. You are on the wrong side. But still you will
fight with him about his reckless driving. If you are sitting under
the coconut tree in your house yard and a coconut falls on your head,
with whom will you fight? No body. You will just mumble and swear
about your bad luck.
You are very hungry. The friend has
lot of food. But he is unwilling to give to you though you are
very hungry and begging. He is a wrong person in DHARMIC way. If
you take it without telling him because of your extreme hunger,
you will not be a sinner in DHARMIC way. But if you hit him and
steal the food, then you are a sinner.
Yoga is nothing but energizing your
intellect. Finding out that what is needed for you. Let us see
what is in store in the coming three days. Most of you are
unlit lamps. All I have to do is light it. But for some I have
to clan the lamp, pour oil, prepare the wick and then only light
it. I must teach them about spirituality, about the greatness of
this learning etc., That will happen only if I have time, if the
person is a fit to be taught and if his Karma and my Karma permit.
I never entertain the wish that I must make everyone devoted to
God or turn him or her God wards. I too am a human. I just have
a graying beard and I eat Chapatis and sleep on bed. Because you
have put me on this pedestal, I will try to teach something. I
do not have time to follow up if you are learning or not. I don't
have time for that. Even Lord Rama said that the world is unchangeable
and unconvincing. If Rama himself says, then what about me? I can
only share my experience. If I cannot help, then I will explain
without any promises. I explain it curtly. If you still follow
me, then I will try to share your grief. I never give false hopes.
I even now say - you all will not become Brahma Jnanis in three
days and then walk on the sea. Sorry. I am speaking all this with
some bitterness. These coming three days will be days of learning.
Once, many people were traveling on
a boat. There was an astrologer on board. People flocked around
him and asked why the boat was rocking. He calculated and said
that there was a great sinner aboard. This is the favourite line
for many astrologers. He then divided the population in two portions.
The boat rocked to one side. He decided that the sinner was in
that group. He then on continued to divide till the end. He was
then shocked that the boat finally tilted to his side. Going by
his logic, he was the sinner and he was thrown over board. This
analogy carries the meaning that we are not the ones to pass judgments.
Why God does this - is his plan. He is the master family planner.
Sea covers most of earth. The fact that earth has not melted is
his grace. There is no use to fear further. We can steel our minds
and have a charitable heart to others and then go on. That is all.
I am impressed with the developments in this Ashrama. May Datta
Bless those who helped these developments.
Jaya Guru Datta
