Video Description: He welcome everyone to 2nd day of 3 day meditation workshop. He said he is glad to see people around the world attending the workshop. One of the common problem in meditation is we still don’t know how important it it to establish our self behind the eyes BEFORE the meditation. We should first find out where we want to meditate. He emphasized on withdrawal of attention NOT focusing of attention. We withdrawal our attention to that point and concentrate our attention there…that’s the whole thing. All other things we do repeating of words they are means to the same end. We automatically travel to reality every-time…more we withdraw our self and ultimate we find our true home. Its interesting God is sitting in same body as we are…right where we are behind the eyes. But we do not know how to withdrawal as we keep going outside our heads. Our attention is scattered. Desires results in more attachments therefore if we can withdraw our self and concentrate our attention there..its is the only way to find out who we are.

Meditation tries to bring back things which we don’t think of…mind RESISTS…it plays role to play our master…its a thinking machine…its an excellent machine to use…but not to use as a master of ours. This machine for interpreting sense perception…it was wonderful but the machine was NEVER expected to be our master. How did this happen? Simple answer- we forgot we are the soul…we thought our mind is the soul. The ‘I’ got associated with mind alone and not with the soul. The soul is immortal and time and space independent. Its a source of experience of love, job, bliss and beauty…mind has none of these things. It rationalizes things…it uses logic (conductive and deductive). Mind cannot produce love and intuition. This has causes havoc and allowed mind to become our master. Therefore, thinking rules us.

We relate to death our self also our sense perception we associate with. That’s not us. He mentioned about his cute iPhone in the video using it as an example. Therefore PLM who have attained consciousness of their own totality who have answers from their own experience…come and tell us…look we are mistaking that your body is yourself these are merely tools given to us fact is we are consciousness that empowers the sense perception. PLM advise to use these instruments (mind, body, sense perception) but we are the power behind these. Therefore the secret master meditation method is they allow us to withdrawal our attention to back to where it belongs…its right now behind our eyes. In meditation we will discover we go one step higher…there are millions of show on-going. Its a process going on forever. They are wonderful experiences. The stage by stage covering up on us was created for a reason. Why do we have a mind, sense perception and physical body? Purpose was to create a more SOLID, different kind experience of consciousness at another level. A material body was given as a costume…for creating an experience. It enables us to play our role well. The part has been written rehearsed, prescript several times and perfected. Its not a fresh life. We act our role beautifully. We are made to forget the reality behind the scenes. Therefore prescript part is wonderful…we are blocked from the knowledge and we think we make our destiny as we go along…we sense we can make our own destination and experience freewill. Why did we leave our home in the first place…if we see opposite time…its because we appreciate life MUCH more after going through a difficult time. Therefore, we are here to experience something in the world of duality and this pair of opposite constitutes our experience here…when we go back home…there are so many individuated soul they ask why are we more happy than us 🙂 They are dancing with joy but we dance even more! We hop even higher!!! You don’t know what you are missing…we have seen the other side therefore we can appreciate this more. The creation is designed way it fulfills all purpose.

All these pair of opposites by illusion…its the only reality we know…if we knew wakeful state and dream state at same time it would not look like reality and won’t scare us. Therefore, by shutting of wakefulness while we dream becomes reality. IT only becomes unreal when we wake up. Same way this reality remains until we wake up. An awakened person, he alone can help us wake up more and more till we reach our true home. We wake from one stage to another. Simple things must not necessarily be easy because of reliance on our minds for years…mind loves complicated things. Simple things are too simple for it to appreciate. The PLM realise it…therefore they give instructions to us when we initiate us. They take responsibility to go back home…why give instructions? They tell how to meditate, how to listen to do the sound…they give detailed instruction who are they for? Our soul needs no instructions…they are for our mind to keep it occupied so it does not come in the way…its to prevent mind from distracting anymore…they are not meant for soul at all. Therefore, when instruction of mantra given what is the purpose…they perform many functions as we full of world negative and positive energies…when we go through difficult situations…in spite of all those we still have more negativity in our spiritual journey…its some words we use are charged and given magical power to help us…one purpose…to prevent negativity from effecting our journey. The other purpose is to prevent thinking of other things and focus on the mantra/ simran. They help with withdrawal our mind to our self. Consciousness pulls after astral world…it has manifested form.

Consciousness by its definition its aware of something. Its an in-built thing....own resonance it can be consciousness of itself..that power/ melody/ music is what we call the sound current/ shabd/ the word/ the nard.

Its the power that creates…the power was the word. And that power manifest continuously wherever consciousness…it does not disappear at all. The experience of self in us…today it looks like an ego…who we identify with? Suppose our face changes…we are still same self…Chinese philosopher Fa-Hein was mentioned who thought he was a butterfly 🙂 (30min in) The sound can be heard at certain level…it can be heard at all levels…because it can be heard we call it an audible sound current. Its a great vehicle to go back home…its the only connection that never breaks. When we ride on sound…it is the real royal road..that has never been blocked. Therefore, that road is what we like to take…to reach that road…we need to turn our attention inside us. Each of us has capability to hear it right now. We have put all our attention outside.

If we see whole picture…we are here for a show…it goes on and on…something happened it perpetuated this show…there is an interesting story…what we read here makes sense if we can relate it to the physical world. All language that exists here is in reference to physical world. Therefore, to write about something that does not exist here is impossible and yet we want to write, speak. The only way to do is to make stories! We make use of symbols of this world. He talked about Hans and Bans (36min). The singleness of the experience broke between top to the physical plane. What happened was time when soul was indiviuated we call it asthool shareer (astral, casual, parbraham/soul-level, sachkhand).

He talked about Ocean of Love by Anurag Sagar. Mind works only in time and space. That woman (how to call her she was not a woman) shakti/ power came to this guy to produce kids to her…but he liked her so much…he was like a kid. So this guy who wanted to create time and space put this woman in his mouth and ate her! She cried called up on her father what have you done to me…(this is a story not real!)…the father was very angry…he took woman out she was alive and kicking. She argues with him, I am like your mother and I came here and I was like your sister (same father) you brought me out you are like my father. He said why are you worried about it…there is no sin yet…sin is something we create to keep these people down here…how will do it…we stretch whole experience in time and space and call it cause and effect…nothing in time and space and then we place events on time and let people go through events …and so on…this way they will be here forever…that is law of karma. Father was so angry. Power to create time, space, mind, karma place them in all subsequent form of life was all accident…giving us law of cause and effect, law of karma has worked good for that guy. Mind itself will so work it will work itself in doing things…it will still do…therefore people will commit sin at all and then feel sorry about it and do good things. We are following that rule…doing exactly that thing. We are creating good and bad deeds and stay here forever…no way to get out. If there was a way to wipe out…but we cannot do it…law of karma is so strong that even if we go to highest level we still wipe out enough to go back. He mentioned about Lord Krishna and Arjuna from Mahabharata (48min) and also about Krishna’s friend Udho and explains law of karma to his friend ❤ He mentioned about an ant crawling look at this ant…can you realise this ant is just an insect it was one time Brahma (creator of the universe). Good deeds are rewarded and bad deeds are punished. What is the salvation….strange kind of world there is no escape…then to make things worse…other element was added…to have a reservoir of karma (sanchit karma). Prarabdha karma is what we are born with (destiny karma). What we create is kriyamana karma. Seeker will seek you individually…when he seeks and he finds you…please make sure he doe not effect anyone other than seekers around him. Secondly, make sure that this guy forgets his past life…and he doesn’t know anything…third thing…you will not perform miracles in public. The best way is to make that soul enlightened and giving it all experience creation has gone through and by doing that work for me…create a human being just like everyone else but with knowledge right to the top. An individual soul unaware of its destiny picked up is born and happens to meet who is already working as a PLM…gets initiated, get experiences, and has duty to perform but creator himself is performing (PLM). He comes to areas where those seeking souls are located (marked souls). By coincidences, those people who are in the marked list turn up and PLM grants them formal contact called initiation. He takes those souls home…many of souls listen to him…so many are called to him…but they are not all chosen one…what about others? They are marked but not with same PLM but they are bound to get initiated also. If our mind is satisfied it does not interfere too much in our progress. First tstep is most difficult is just to see more beautiful, delicious inside us but till that happens mind resists. Mind makes us think of other things…it does not allow you to stay at location we want to meditate.

Mind plays its trump card...it forces us out of that space...we fight it...it takes us away...force it back...thinking something far away...when we fight it bring it back..after hour or two or ten...we will give up...we got nothing...we were winning every fight but mind won the battle.

How do we handle it? It needs little kind of diplomacy…we don’t try to fight the mind but ignore the mind. Argue with mind…no i know what you are doing…keep on thinking I am not leaving…ignore than fight the mind. Then mind gets tired. Therefore, ignoring the mind is the secret. We cannot argue or ignore the mind unless we know we are not the mind. People meditate for years…how can meditation be tiring…it should make us strong. When we realise our self is the soul NOT the mind we can make progress. Hear the words of the mind…we will hear such bizarre things that can never be you! If we are not the mind…who are we? We are the one listening to the chatter of the mind.

He quoted Kabir, if you repeat mantra with our tounge..but mind is running away...do not consider that meditation at all. Meditation is only beginning when it done with the mind.

Very Important Tip for Meditation: With tongue we can talk like a parrot. Mind has capacity to think in many channels. 2nd and 3rd channel in our head is almost universal. We all repeat something like parrot and keep on talking about something else at the same time. When we notice that…make the commentator join in the repetition…ask them to do the meditation and repeat the same words. When picture images come into mind…ask them to join mantra also…so you get all voices and images…joining the meditation but its only one mind doing meditation. He shared a story of a swami from a talk in India…he said if there are so many Masters around who could be a PLM? See what the heart says to you. Use commonsense…its a gift. We have many senses…8 senses…5 are only of perception, 6th sense is intuition, 7th sense is commonsense (we should be able to distinguish what is important and what is not)…but the 8th sense…sense of humor…ability to laugh at our life as a witness laugh at every angle we are using our eight sense.

If we practice behind eyes look at life…we will see many actors in life including our own…we will be amused when we see life that way…that is using our 8th sense of humor. Mind is deigned to create doubt and fear…it is to enable us to find the truth!

Taste of the pudding lies in its eating! 

Only then we can come to judgement whether we like it or not. Therefore, when we come across various masters…what should we follow..employ commonsense…keep your doubts in one side…only if you satisfy mind we can make progress. He shared goofy story about a doubter 🙂 When doubts creep in it prevent us making real progress in meditation. That is why many answers from PLM are to designed to dispel our doubts so they don’t come in our way, then we can make progress. GM would say people who are very intellectual they take a long time to make progress because they take a long time to understand, they intellectually absorb knowledge before they can make real progress. Simpleton however can go through it fast not because their karma is better but lack of questions helps them accelerate on the spiritual path. But then…the intellectual has one advantage…since they have gone through all the questioning…the mind after that does not disturb and then makes very good progress. But on other hand simpleton faith could shake after a bad incident and could have a relapse. The ultimate is…the proof of the pudding lies in the eating ❤ 🙂 GM goes against any kind of blind faith…believe to extent that you are experiencing it but do not just taken away by someone’s statement. There is no scope for worry for a person who is a true seeker…keep on seeking in their heart they will meet a PLM ❤ If you seek…you WILL find.

He talked about two types of cars- rear-wheel and front-wheel drive and their differences. One pushes and pull to make progress. The simran is a rear-wheel car...it pushes our-self withing however the sound is the front-wheel car it pulls it with our own power. In combination we can find which one works at what time. 

The sound will only pull if it is true ASTRAL sound. The other sounds can be used (practice sound). He talked about a Japanese meditator who invited Ishwar Ji in his ashram near Tokyo who used a sound-proof hollow chamber he made out of glass…which has no sound outside…we can hear our heart-beat. The pulled in does not work that way…the sound we really have which pulls is of different kind…it lies behind the eyes. Our experience will be we hear sound, if we look at one sound. Its important to know obstacles that come in meditation and not blindly keep doing same thing forever. Spiritual path is an experiential path…we cannot be static therefore spiritual path should have constant progress day by day. Our density is build up its made of high and low parts. Good and bad alternates. Therefore, we are sometime we are happy sometime we are not. Why are we having this combination? If we had all good karma…we couldn’t be in human body there are plenty of heaven for that state. If we had all bad karma we wouldn’t be here either…there are several hell in sub-astral plane. We have to have ups and downs to have human form in physical plane. Progress is sine-wave but the axis shift as much as the progress. If good is better than previous good and bad is less bad than previous bad…we are making progress! ❤ There was a brief Q&A session at the end (1 hr43min). The importance of dhyan…contemplation of the Master.
