Video Description: What we can expect from deep meditation is to find ourself….our real-self. Not self covered by various kinds of costumes which we are wearing to play the act but to find out who is the real actor after costume removed. He talked about rear and front wheel drive. He talked about audible sound current which is in all of us. Two features good meditation 1) Push 2) Pull feature. Push makes us put of effort via repetition of words. There is something inside us that can Pull us and that something is sound. He talked about the peel that goes on after the bell is struck. A sound that is only melody exists in all of us…its inborn.That sound has property to pull us up. If we can listen to sound within…we are pulled up.
7min- We are used to hearing external sounds…never thought of hearing internal sounds. What we thought of internal sounds….we hear our heart-beat, breathing, blood moving, problem in the ears- these are all physical sounds we are used to all the time. The sound that can pull us…in order to hear it…we put our attention to where sound is coming from. It comes from exactly where the SELF is. We have to use the PUSH (simran) to design to withdraw us sufficiently to reach within for the sound. I have tried many kinds of yogas but nothing matched surat shabd yoga– attention sound yoga. Yoga of the audible sound current is the one that I find really designed for us why? Because words have very limited use. Telepathy is the normal way to communicate in the astral plane.
13min- Above astral no language exists at all we just contextualize things. They are predicting we will have a universal language. There is a airline KLM- they have said if anyone can pronounce the 3 words letter pronounce KLM they will give free ride as they are hard to pronounce! There is no universal communication in spoken language. They are called varnanatmak sound which can be spoken and written but true sound cannot be spoken or written. He talked about the peel of the bell pulls us therefore its great to have that aid that we can do surat shabd yoga and I find that great place to start that journey. The sounds change- why? The bell sound changes into a long conch like sound. Baba Ji spoke in detail of the inner sound. When you are able to hear the sound…you have caught the express train to your destination. What is consciousness means? Means consciousness of something…if we are not then it disappears!
20min- In the beginning was the Word…John’s Gospel. He mentioned Hindu, Jewish and Islamic scriptures having similar message. It was sound that manifested as Guru. What is the reality of consciousness. Why did we call it sound here? Because it is audible at the physical level. The goal of this practise is to reach our true home/ ultimate. Proper place to do prayers and meditation is inside our head. True meditation chamber we carry with us at all times in top of our head. We don’t have to go anywhere. He talked about a friend who was a great meditator (on basis of how many number of hours he did meditation). He had a very nice expensive cushion and he had kept a corner of room with incense to make place ‘holy’. Baba Ji told him you meditated mostly on cushion! Mind is on items around him.
28min- Put most expensive chair, drapes all purchased by priceless currency called imagination. He talked when he came to the USA and met many meditators. He said we read what our mind wants to read in a book. He talked about a goof ball who initially poopooed Julian Johnson’s book but 6 years later he said he found the truth..in Julian Johnson’s book โค Do not make meditation a struggle…struggle becomes a block on this paht therefore sit in the centre and relax โค How to repeat words if I don’t struggle? ๐ How do we sit there in centre and make no centre and do our simran…don’t do it yourself…make your master do it! Master says he will do anything for you didn’t he. Talk to master…I want you to repeat those words…you relax and listening to them and that’s as power as listening to the sound. Even our attachment which function like thorns they don’t go off…physical body is temporary but I do my duty fully…this can be done with all our relationships. Meditation is not merely sitting and closing eyes but a way of life.
This path is not of a struggle or impatience…Surat shabd yoga is slow and steady type of yoga. We distinguish between a spiritual connection and sense of duty because of karma.

35min- Karma should be treated as paying off bills. Why not pay it cheerfully! You can’t take plea to forget to pay off bills, aka karma. He talked about chatter of the mind of things outside this face and that has to be controlled otherwise we cannot sit for too long. In order to sit there quietly, you have to remove the thoughts that are taking you out of it. One of the main function of mantra is to replace words of thoughts with those chosen words! He talked about Shakey’s pizza…we cannot have words which has association with the outside but needs to be associated with the inside. Those words are really helpful, so mantra is designed for many purposes. They can calm us down…if you want to raise level of consciousness then you have to use mantra that don’t have association here but somewhere else which will come up when we go higher level of consciousness. They also empower the mantra, they give their own conscious power to prevent negativity.
39min- When initiated by a PLM one advantage of repeating those words is that it pushes of negativity away from you. That’s why mantra by PLM has much greater value than any other mantra. Repeat the mantra slowly, deliberately pronouncing every word and listening to it. Effectiveness depends on how well you listen to it. He went through a LIVE meditation. Keep your eyes closed till I count 5…1, 2, 3, 4, 5 …open your eyes….rub your face and hands and knees…welcome back โค
44min- He appreciated value of one on one interview. He said there is an Indian lady here who explained the Indian Q&A, meditation way ๐ It’s a universal thing spirituality does not belong to any nation, religion…its open to all humanity all human beings are equal in the eyes of PLM because the souls are equal. He comes to get the marked souls home at the right time. He talked about Bibi Laajo…after GM passed away had lot of time together with the Bibi Baba Ji introduced in the video. She likes to share the stories
