Video Description: Welcome friends to this 2nd day of the 2 day program in Sancremanto in CA. I am delighted to spend these 2 days with you. I am happy to meet many of you and to hear of your experiences. The spiritual path is a practical experiential one and not a theory or theoretical model. It is simply a method of finding within yourself who you really are. It is not a religion, or a cult or a society but merely a teaching which tells us how we can find ourselves by going within ourself to find out true nature of our consciousness and role of the totality of consciousness. All these realizations, actual experiences are possible within ourselves by a process which is described as GOING WITHIN. In a wakeful state do yo feel you are in the heart? Not at all. The heart is an organ which is functioning well to provide bloody to body but has nothing to do with where we are in a conscious wakeful state, when we are awake as a physical human beings. When we are in this state and find out where we are operating from at this stage it does not take long to know its all happening in our head. You are putting these questions behind the eyes and your conscious self is behind the eyes but not always as this body is a temporary costume we are wearing. It is only at this time that we are in the physical body in the wakeful state we feel we are behind the eyes. When we want to learn who we really are we start with that point and I keep on repeating the wakeful state as we are familiar with other states also (higher or dream state). Baba ji talked about our experiences in the dream state. The best time for meditation is when you are fully awake. In dream you can skip places looks normal. It doesn’t look normal here and yet in dream we take it as its always normal. That is why in the dream if you want to do meditation it is very difficult as you skip from place to place and no concentration at all. But in wakeful state it looks so real and we cannot change the world around us and that is why it is in this state that we can explore more steady way what is inside us.

11min- If we think by making a special room, chair etc to meditate on that will give us a higher experience then we are mistaken. How can you go within in that state that is why people who think you have to go to a particular place or do something special stuck in those things and make no progress. Starting point must be where you feel the self is in the wakeful state which is inside yourself behind the eyes. You must not forget the first step do not start any simran unless you first locate yourself behind the eyes inside yourself. When we concentrate our attention other things began to disappear from our awareness. If you prepare this with physical death it’s very similar. Dying while living means you are still alive and yet you are able to become unaware of this body and discover you are sitting inside your head. If you try to make an image of yourself behind eyes it doesn’t work…you need to move to yourself. If you can see yourself as an image remember that is not you but one looking at that is you. Therefore, pull back and again that confusion will be there for a while. These eyes are nothing do with that experience. Same goes for hearing. That is why when we are able to withdraw our attention to the world around it..we discover a new world altogether. And these experiences can lead us to total experience of being there for a long time..you can even recall before you were born in this body and you discover your life in that state was much longer than this body.

The power of concentration you can become more aware of something and less aware of something else therefore by putting our attention on our ownself where we think. If you fix yourself there you are able to become unaware of what is outside and gradually become unaware of your body.

20min- All sense perception we have when we put together is the astral body. The ability to see, hear, taste, smell are the astral body. But having these abilities they function like this physical body. When you are able to sustain that for a while you are able to remember a lot of things. Everytime we go to sleep and wake up this is real world…we meditate…and come back this becomes real world and other unreal. What defines reality? Dream is real…and law of nature change completely…when do you find its a dream…not while you are dream…when you wake up…how do you know you are awake…that are you awake? A transition must take place to differentiate between dream and wakeful state? What is the proof? Proof is when you wake up you remember you went to sleep! You remember without opening your eyes with recollection you went to sleep in this bed. The principle is same you remember you were in that state earlier before you came into the physical world…but it doesn’t come initially …it comes when we stablise ourself in those experiences…it becomes real and this becomes a dream. Then there is a question if everytime we wake up rest become dream even astral can be a dream? Indeed it is…you wake waken even more. We wake up again and again and the ultimate experience is real…where does it end or is there no end? The end comes when we find there is only one dreamer and no one else. That ultimate end…you discover that you have found your true home, which we call the Totality of Consciousness. Creation is great work of consciousness where it can be conscious of anything and create several universes of experiences. Its creates an experience that looks…so real that we are completely convinced that the existing state of wakefulness is the only reality. Its only by wakeful you can discover this was just a dream. Are there any tools which we use in the wakeful state which are causing dream to happen? Very often dreams are of things we do during the day. In dream we are fighting we are getting a little better. Sometime we can’t remember who are those people in the dream…if we have ability to look at previous life we would find different levels dream is not unique to one life but previous lives. Time is fixed nothing is moving then we start moving our attention from our end…cause and effect goes on…law of karma is overwhelming us. We developed it like that and then we began to feel time is flowing through us. Time never flows…we are moving at all times. Egyptians found we can do time-travel and right now we are moving from one movement to another but time is not moving our attention is moving.

33min- Mind creates all this and plays out all this. You can reach that state by pulling your attention within. We have ability to discover the whole nature of creation…the entire system is explained to us by personal experience. Such power of going within in meditation. This goes on…until you find the ultimate dream which is your true form and you can realise that. Crossing the mind is the most difficult thing because all our effort is undertaken by the mind. Meditating never takes anyone above trikuti i.e. above the causal stage. Something has to PULL us beyond the mind. The mind always like to push its way. Who will pull you from there? Yourself…but you don’t know yourself…who are you really that will pull you beyond the mind? Yourself which you don’t know about. Is there anyway bring that to yourself here so you have that experience somewhere here so we can at least use that tool here…yes we made that arrangement ourself. We made a great arrangement right from the beginning…and what was that…to make the trueself appear as somebody else in the physical world…that person we create in this show we call a perfect living master…its our own true self. He could appear in dream or astral stage also but he is most useful to come in the physical human stage as this is the only state (out of all) where we have experience akin to the experience at our totality…experience of freewill. In India we call it the mauj…its not will…its a fun game of our own totality to setup level of consciousness where he/she/it left scope for recovering our own knowledge of our true-self which is of the wakeful human state.

Ignorance of the future…ignorance is truly bliss because that alone makes us feel we make our choices.

41min- Freewill is a greater experience we have as that is what makes us have a choice and even to seek. So freewill we have made more real than anything else. It is not that we can’t sometime tie up freewill with our belief system. Most that follow religion has defined God who is separate from us that is why we worship him…Everyone defines God as a creator being omnipresent, potent, omniscient (all-knowing). He is all knowing…when we make a choice…does God knows it? If someone knows my choice its not freewill if I am making a choice…if it is true freewill…even God doesn’t know then he fails in his definition of God. Some people try to modify arguments about we make choices and we have faith in God. If God knows beforehand there is no free will but its God’s will prevailing. When I was at Harvard University who was studying topic of freewill. One day early morning one of Baba Ji’s friends called him where baba Ji played a little trick with cup of tea, coffee and nothing in another cup 🙂 Freewill looks more real than this world…so we make freewill part of this reality of the physical world. Its only a reality in the physical world where we are governed by these principles. Is there way to test out? When you go to different levels of consciousness all answers come to you. The purpose to become morally responsible to widen the experience of responsibility…to create a morale code where you can divide things into good and bad and you can create societies..its a great experience and widens the nature of experience. Freewill made us a beautiful experience of morality but more than that…the biggest benefit we could use illusion of freewill to seek to get out of this mess. If you seek you will find…that is why seeking is so important.

53min- A PLM never claim he is a master. He is more ordinary than an ordinary person and yet he has power to pull you with true love. How can you find such a person- its impossible. The truth is you cannot find…in India they say when chela is ready guru appears. What makes a disciple ready…to seek to get away from here…that’s it. Readiness is not for any other purpose. When we are ready…its not our job to find master but its master’s job to find us. That is why somebody ask me how can you find a master …I said you can’t but you can seek. Don’t seek outside…shout inside…seek inside…show your readiness inside. Therefore seeking itself via coincidences to lead you to person who you will find is a master. It will take time as master is like us ordinary human being. To realise his full extent what that human being can do. We have been here for so long…so a few months, years is not too long as you associate with that human being you will realise who is the master. We can’t really make that judgement that way. There are some signs which we have noticed possible to see in PLMs in history of mankind master has those characterics…master never claims to be a master, doesn’t performs outside miracles but internal miracles, he doesn’t depend on others earnings he is a giver not a taker. But this kind of a criteria can cover many people who can or cannot be masters. Seeking for true home never stops…mind seeks things outside something else in us our truself is seeking to go to our true home.

1hr1min- There are two types of things we like tangible things like money, good car, house and there are intangible things like your inner happiness, your depression they cannot be seen but ruin the benefits of tangible things. Act done without expecting anything you get happiness in reward…in economical terms you don’t get anything but inner happiness that is satisfaction…intangible this is important. I began to prepare a questionnaire what makes one happy and what makes you unhappy. Most of the 1000 people replied. And the answers were surpingly similar. Lot of family, kids, house we are happy…if we are poor etc we are unhappy So I found almost all of them if we had a lot of money we will be happy…that made me interview some of the money people. One of them was ex-Harvard professor who indicated he was rich with $10M. When I interviewed him…you must be happy..not at all…I am very happy…do you know like you I went to Harvard University and got degrees and worked hard to get an education and now I have this much but my neighbors never went to school has $20M. His happiness was dependent on his neighbors. Secret of happiness always look to people less than you then you will be happy. This happiness and unhappiness question revealed to me there are tangible things and intangible things. I went to a small town where Krishna was born ❤ There were a group of farmers…very poor…living in small hovel… extremely poor condition. In evening they sing song praising Krishna…I saw so much happiness in them and all they were doing…saying…Udho the nature of karma is very strange…because of a story between Krishna and Udho. Krishna pointed at an ant…this ant has been Brahma, Indra…today because of his karma he is an ant…what good is it to reach those high states…level of awareness and then becoming an ant..law of karma is very terrible…in karma, we cannot atone for karma …we can do 100 good and 1 bad karma but that 100 doesn’t take care of that 1 bad karma…those poor people and shaking their heads like their drunk…I saw happiness among them even in their poverty. How is happiness divided…people lot of money are poor in intangible things and vice-versa ❤

1hr13min- There is no inequality but different features given to our life. Happiness can be found from within and state of inside but not outside therefore we should not link our happiness to something outside. If you are able to see the great show you will enjoy it. We are living in just a pre-recorded and we are characters in the movie instead of sitting in the audience. We are sitting inside one of the actors but if we are AWARE of that we will enjoy it more. That is possible if you can withdraw your attention, take a comfortable imaginary chair behind the eyes…take imaginary popcorn and then you watch the movie..this movie and you will relax and enjoy. I tell you try for a week or a month to watch movie and your life will change with one week experience…I am not saying meditate hard simple experience..say I am going to watch the movie from inside…I am inside a character in the movie. Its like a creation of character for sake of a play. That is why I say go within to see the reality and your life will change right here! That is why this path spiritual path path of saints santmat is a path of awareness…I am very happy I spend 2 days here with you. I hope they will be useful for you…and hope to see you again ❤
