Be one with Him and know everything

March 8th, 2010

Be one with Him and know everything.
If you want to know all, try to know One.
If you try to know all,
you won’t be able to know anything.

Desire and Fulfillment

February 26th, 2010

In this cosmic cycle, everyone has their individual and particular desire, and everyone is running after it. Those who have several desires run after all of them and become exhausted; and in the long run they receive none. If one desires to drink milk and smoke at the same time, it cannot be [...]

Butterfly

February 18th, 2010

Now what is devotion? Leaving all the relative things, when the mind moves toward the Absolute, that alone is known as Devotion. When the mind moves toward the Supreme Soul, the nearer it comes to Him, there is an unknowing change in it. The caterpillar does not know when it becomes a butterfly. [...]

Humbler than the grass

To attain complete success in life, one must have mental equipose, mental balance. There must not be any complex in the mind – neither superiority nor inferiority complex.
Now, to bring about mental balance, you should behave with every human being in such a way that this superiority complex or inferiority complex develops neither [...]

Nothing is beyond the Supreme Consciousness

November 30th, 2008

In this universe there is nothing beyond the Supreme Consciousness. You always remain within His circle.
Imagine that a cow is tied to a peg with a rope. The rope may be short or long, but the cow has to move around the peg. Similarly, human beings are moving around the Cosmic Nucleus.
They go round [...]

The Process of Evolution

September 15th, 2008

From the inanimate to the animate goes the process of evolution.
Consider a piece of stone for instance. It has neither the power of action nor the sensation of mind. What is the reason? It is because hitherto there has been no manifestation of mind in the stone at all.
Consider the trees and plants that [...]

In the Midst of Diversity

August 7th, 2008

If one could visualise the original form of the Supreme Entity, all the apparent external differences would vanish into nothingness. In fact, the fundamental spirit of intuitional practice is to realize the Supreme Unity in the midst of diversity.

You Will Have to Move

June 9th, 2008

Movement is the most important factor in this world. Whether you want to or not, you will have to move. If you do not want to move towards Supreme Consciousness, then you will have to move towards annihilation. If you do not take the negative path, then you will move towards the Supreme.
The closer you [...]

A Small Bubble

June 2nd, 2008

Human life is a small bubble in the ocean of consciousness. One who rejects the waves of this ocean, can never be successful. However big an ego one has, one day that ego will be shattered, as big rocks are churned to dust.
If one wants to move on the path of the Supreme, [...]

Who Can Be A Guru?

March 30th, 2008

Who can be a guru? An enchained person cannot liberate others from bondage. Only a liberated soul deserves to be a guru, who can help others in attaining their salvation.
A person who is free from bondages is a liberated person. Judged in this light, only the Supreme Entity is a real liberated soul. So only [...]

The Real Yoga

February 20th, 2008

When the unit consciousness merges itself fully and is finally identified with the Supreme Consciousness, that is called yoga.
Here, the microcosmic drop merges into the vast ocean of Consciousness. What is the supreme goal in the life of a spiritual aspirant? To merge the individual existence into Parama Purusa, Paramatman, the ocean of Macrocosmic Consciousness. [...]

Fighting at Each and Every Step

January 19th, 2008

When a spiritual aspirant tries to enlarge his mind, naturally debasing forces become very active. The aspirant is to enlarge his mind and spirit by fighting at each and every step, each and every stage of life.
In his mind there will be those two belligerent forces. That is, the spiritual force and the debasing material [...]

A Securely Founded Shelter

November 19th, 2007

People run after money for the only reason that they believe they can maintain their lives under the shelter of money; that is to say, money alone can save them. But they do not know that money can provide them neither permanent stability nor a securely-founded shelter. Even during the span of their [...]

One Must Always Think of the Supreme

October 29th, 2007

One who wants to attain the goal must not be too concerned with obstacles on the way. If one thinks of the obstacles, they will themselves become the goal and not the Supreme.
That is why, in the field of spiritual sa’dhana’ (spiritual practice), one must always think of the Supreme, not anything else. [...]

Your Only Object of Ideation

May 21st, 2007

So many scriptures say so many things, and they are sometimes contradictory to one another. Now what to do? What is an ordinary man to do? Whom to follow and whom not to follow?
There are so many social codes in the world. And amongst intellectuals there are so many diversities of opinion. One intellectual doesn’t [...]

Seated in Your Heart

April 11th, 2007

He appears to you according to your feelings toward Him. If you are subtle, He is nearest to you; if you are crude, He is farthest from you. Do you feel whether the Supreme Consciousness is in India or in America? He is so near as to be in your feelings, and so far [...]

Nobody is Unimportant, Nobody is Insignificant

April 4th, 2007

He has the same care for an ant, a mosquito and a mammoth. There is no special importance to a mammoth because it has a big body. The amount of care that He devotes to an ant is the same which He devotes to the entire cosmos – not less, not more. The entire universe, [...]

There is One Moon

March 21st, 2007

Photo by Gronson
There is one moon, but its reflections, falling in countless puddles of water, appear as countless moons. No new moon is born. The same moon is being reflected in many receptacles. Similarly, the one and the same Supreme Consciousness is being manifested as limitless individual entities, in countless mental receptacles, in [...]

This Human Society is One

March 14th, 2007

In the field of spirituality there must not be any complex – neither fear complex nor shyness complex nor any other complex. The scriptures say, “If you do not do this or that you will go to hell.” Due to this, the scriptures are the worst enemy of human society; because in this [...]

Concealed Within Your Mind

March 7th, 2007

Photo by Espen Lodden
The Supreme Consciousness has concealed Himself within your mind. He is hidden behind the curtain of your “I-ness”. You need not go to the Himalayan mountains to find out the thing that is concealed in your own “I”. Does one need a mirror to see the bangle on one’s hand? The [...]
