Video Description: Today I talked to you in the morning on purpose of life and role of a PLM. In brief, life purpose is to escape from this trap we got into and advantage of a PLM come into our life is he holds us by our hands and take us home ❤ There are many methods of meditation which master teach us. When my master accepted me and said he shared what works for me I have shared with you. And if it works for you great and if it doesn’t try something else. He said its not a cult, a trap its open to examine your own self there is no binding. If you find something better I should go and tell him so he will also adopt that. That was very open kind of challenge to me. So I accepted that challenge but unable to find anything better. Method he told me out of all the yogas. Yoga is a term used for union. One that worked for me worked so well is Surat Shabd Yoga- Yoga of attention and sound and can lead us to the highest level of our awareness. I like this in preference to other yoga. We can do other exercises so different kind of yoga people practise, some have been good and some mislead into believe that it is yoga. It also depends on what’s one aim is. If its to get peace of mind, calm yourself, any yoga is good. if your objective is more than and find who we are and reach our true home and find the creator in us and then there are few yogas that take you that high. Surat Shabd Yoga does that. What’s the yoga of attention and sound. Attention is only part of our consciousness to change our awareness from here to there. But to be able to put attention inside, there are some obstacles on the way. Repeat words (simran) that will make you stabilise there but if you repeat words that has value outside then you will focus outside not inside. So those words won’t be good mantra. Masters give us words which have relevance inside than outside.

9min- But the most significant way to go within is to catch a natural sound that is emanating from the self. Will conscious have its own entity? It has its own imminence/ presence. In the physical level that expression of the self without operating as a conscious being of conscious of something that it can be heard as a sound. That’s a big advantage. To hear sound of consciousness, then we are being pulled to consciousness itself. Push or pull- either you push yourself or you get pulled by something. Since we dont know there is a sound inside, we don’t listen to it. If we can listen to it, then the sound will pull us and take us where we want to go. The sound is being generated by the self. To put attention on this sound is called surat shabd yoga. The original quality of conscious, which resides in us, comes up. To be able to focus or withdrawal your attention we use repetition of words. PLM gives us mantra for 2 purposes, to repeat them, stabilise position behind the eyes and secondly he empowers them so no negativity can harm us. PLM initiates us he gives us tool to move forward and makes sure that when you do the first step of going within he should meet you there and rest of the journey should be in his company. Our relationships here are skin deep. This loneliness we have is because of dependence of relationship outside..we are alone and truth is we are alone as there was only one! We created the many to overcome loneliness and spiritual path is alone way to true home…you will still be lonely. Therefore, on this path of spiritual path- you won’t go alone. We are here in flesh and blood and we will be here throughout the journey to true home. Only requirement is to maintain this creation as is you take short step to meet at the meeting point within, master is waiting within and journey is then with him. You see the radiant form of the master inside.

19min- The other levels of consciousness creates other worlds for us. Astral world is bigger world and many advantages there which we don’t have here. Sometime there are so many fun travellers don’t want to leave 🙂 You can study, write, communicate without language. So this transference of communication without spoken words is a useful thing and a new experience altogether. Telepathy is a normal way for communication in the Astral plane. These opening is so amazing as we go to the casual stage and find how all lives were pre-written by us and stored there and we discover our own destiny there. These experience are difficult to explain to everybody. But it’s a personal verification inside you. There is no room for blind faith on this path. Unless you experience it yourself, don’t disbelief but don’t believe. That is why in this path we dont have blind faith but living faith i.e. faith grows with experience. When I say sound this sound starts from here…these are spoken words but this sound is varnatmak sound (spoken or written) but when you go higher spoken words have no value…then you go into sound alone which pulls you up. Above time and space there is not sound and it converts to attractive resonance of the self expressing itself and that then is pulling you through new experience…experience of love…pull by love. In true love you forget yourself and only the beloved remains. It’s not the company of two but identification of one. After the mental region nothing counts than listening to sound that pulls us…all that works is love and devotion..nothing else counts. Why love and devotion? Because love is an experience, our response is devotion and therefore they go together. There is a Persian phrase…love is first born in the heart of the beloved. Therefore love and devotion together. Actually in the Gita (Hindu holy scriptures) they talk of the talk given by Krishna and he talks to prince Arjun on the battlefield. Krishna tells him fight these enemies….he says they are already dead you just can’t see it. Carry on principal of law of karma…I am afraid (Arjun)…you can understand if you become a yogi…3 ways…karm yogi (yogi of action- if you perform your duties with skill and not expect any reward your mind will take away from desire and get to your reunion…other way is gyan yoga where knowledge can take you to yoga also (when you can exhaust your mind via learning and then you let go mind is not responsible for me…) Krishna said…best way is Bhakti yoga which is beyond the mind via love and devotion. One of the roles of PLM is an object that we love…and because of it…we are able to have meditation with love and devotion. A PLM’s love is different from love we normally experience. It is unconditional love, no judgement involved.

32min- In case of PLMs love is totally unconditional. He will love you if you love him, not love him, hate him or worse…his love never changes ❤ It is a path which works for us all. We all have the tools in us but what is preventing us to follow this path is our own desires, attachments. I remember a story of an American seeker who found a shortcut to spirituality via yogi in the Himalayas who can give magic words, when you repeat them you get enlightenment. He travelled to India and near yogi. He waited for yogi to come out and he said I came from the USA to get some holy secret words that results in enlightenment. He said holy words are “abracadabra“….yogi said there is a little catch in it by not thinking of bananas. Every time the yank follower tried…bananas came into his mind via meditation. Therefore, to detach from this world, you feel more attached. The only way you can detach from something is to be attached to something else MORE. If you are attached to something…and find something more attractive, then you automatically detach to the former. This yield results according to where we are right now in our karmic life/ pattern. We start from behind the eyes…putting our attention at 3rd eye centre. Closing eyes and doing nothing will not get you anything, as you miss the starting point. Therefore, the starting point of meditation should be behind the eyes…if you are not there don’t start first practise by considering this human body is merely a house where you live with several floors and you are on the sixth floor. You are behind the eyes and looking out from there and therefore should be the starting point. That will be always your room for meditation. The rug, pillow there inside imaginatively should be where you should be meditating from. That is why first step must be inside and use our attention via imagination. Let us today see the starting point we can do it and then we can go further…close your eyes and imagine you are sitting in your house. Keep your eyes closed till I count 5…1,2,3,4, 5…open your eyes…welcome back ❤

43min- Let’s localised ourselves in starting point. We will practise more while we are still here. How many of you would like to fly in the sky? It’s astral flight. In Q&A session, practise arise of the kundalini- it arises to give you awareness centre of energy levels and having union of creator of this physical level. But it does not give rise to union to your own self. That can only come with meditation above eyes not below (as in case of kundalini). What’s the difference between like and love? I found out Socrates gave an answer- If you like flower you pluck it…if you love flower you water it. If PLM initiates a person, that person will master inside all the time and you can speak anything to master and he will hear it. Even if you have reach stage where you can hear him back…if master appears, then the initiation gives a means a checking if mind or master is responding to you via the empowered words. Master is always inside and good thing to know. Master is always there you can’t hear

Master is a friend…he is a friend first and master next! Argue with him…he is there like a friend who will not get annoyed with you. He will respond with love and try to solve problem you are presenting to him. He is always with you 24/7. Master is always there and even if you can’t hear him…he is still listening to you.

49min- If DVD is finished how does freewill comes in? I met a pychic in India with a turban who asked do you have a piece of paper and asked me to write response to three questions he had. About a number, a flower, and my date of birth. He wrote excatly the way I wrote it and did so BEFORE I even decided what I would write. He said shall I tell you something more…when I asked you to write a number you thought he is expecting me to write 5…he was telling me what I was deciding with my freewill. He knews excatly what I thought…I thought I was using my freewill but DVD/ destination contained by freewill. How long we have to meditate depends on several factors such as intense longing to go back, how much weight we are carrying with attachments outside. There is no hard or fast rule. Yes you can reach true home without having inner experiences…you can be blind-folded…if you are not interested depends on our desires…its a big motivation in this world and depending up on what our desire is we get to see all those things. It’s a change of awareness…not going anywhere…its opening up your awareness and be at your true home.

So freewill looks free…it acts free…makes us believe its free…but its prewritten in very form we actually use it.
