Welcome friends to the monthly meeting for month of June. We have these so that we can keep ourselves on the track on the spiritual path. In these modern times there are so many distractions…we have to live our life where most of our attention is given to worldly activities. The spiritual path is on-going. It is to stay on track while doing on worldly work and obligations. That is why we arrange these meetings at least once a month we think did we forget about something…oh yes we should give high priority to the spiritual path. At least once a month but best is to have it daily. To be successful, make spirituality as no. 1 priority. We have blind faith in religious doctrine…there is no experience involved. The spiritual path I follow is an experiential path (not a theory), not trying to prove something but experiencing something. Rely on your own experience rather than somebody else’s who passed away long ago. There is a little catch in this…when you say it should be your experience…if its an experience there is no faith involved! Faith is to believe in something which hasn’t been experienced. Are we not following blind faith if we haven’t experienced it? The answer to this question is that when we say we have the experience to back up our faith…we have one step which we have experienced and faith is the next step taken place. If you have one experience this experience proves there can be something more that is living faith based on it…it grows with each experience something more than you have experienced. Its not blind because its based on already had experienced. Therefore living faith grows with experience. The experience itself is not faith. We have no idea who is a PLM. They believe he must be a learned person who must have experienced more than our experience…some enlightenment that is not our are of enlightenment yet and he maybe able to share some experience with us. They are good spiritual teachers but when we refer to a PLM we are referring to somebody who is not a teacher…comes to befriend us…he notices that we are ready to give up the life we are having in this world. We discover he has an awareness of our true home…therefore he is a good friend and guide to go along with. No teaching is involved, friendship love and going back home. He appear in our life via coincidences…he has found our we are seekers and we have good companions in our journey. Our soul, our life force there is something attached to it…human mind. It creates thoughts and experience of time and space. It makes us have experiences on those events…it makes us time-travel. It relates one event with another via cause and effect i.e. law of karma with reward and punishment. We are neither physical body, sense perception but soul…unit of consciousness that is making the mind alive. Therefore we are none of these things but to make the game as real as possible we adopt these covers up on us as if they are ourselves. We start identify this body with our ownself. Then we have sense perception which are functioning from this body. And yet when we find if we can somehow become unaware of this body. Our awareness loses the awareness of this body, our sense perception becomes sharper. On other hand there is evidence if eyes alone could see you could see nothing in imagination or dream. We have imagination and we can visualise what we like. Sense perception of seeing is not only with eyes.
13min- We call those sense perceptions as astral body. It is not a body at all. They have been placed at different parts of the body. By dying while living you can have experience by meditation simulating death. This process is called true meditation and enables you to find out more than this physical world and what is it like. The awareness of this body disappears and you have sense perception intact. Your eyes become so sharp…you can even see through walls. Yet power of seeing is same we use in this physical body. Its a great arrangement, pull your attention and see. The soul, your life force is inside your body, inside your astral body. Withdraw your attention to the 3rd eye center further…many haven’t done it but some have. They found is when they do so even for sense perception they are very much alive…and the thinking process still goes on. Time and space are still there and yet we are still experiencing as souls, units of consciousness empowering the mind. This attachment of ours is a wonderful gift to us. Yet it troubles us too…when it believes that soul and computer we are using are the same. It draws our energy and become separate entity controlling us. That’s exactly the problem that we are being lead in this world and experience by the mind and the mind is telling us what to do. One of the big transformations that comes on the path that mind is not the master you are the master. Its a much bigger problem than this..it not only put us through events, pain and pleasure, suffering and we our whole life become pair of opposites. When that happens it divides our life in positive and negative. Its not a problem…looking from picture of creation…even these good and bad occurring are also a gift to us. This creation is not what we see here. Areas of creation, an experience which we can access when we are not in the physical body but a higher state of being…in those areas of creation perfect places of happiness and unhappiness…heavens and hells…extremes! Only when our actions and karma are balanced between good and bad…right and wrong…evil and good…happiness and unhappiness…pleasure and pain…these two are equal we become human beings. We all have a balanced life of pain and pleasure. I know people feel more pain than pleasure.
24min- These are being experienced by us both pain and pleasure in a medium called time. The only difference is when pain is experienced time seems to stretch out even though the watch says the same time but when pleasure comes it goes so quickly. Therefore, we FEEL there is more negative, pain but actually it’s very well balanced. Sometimes we see people with a lot of money…you go and live with them, they are the most unhappy people I come across because we see their tangible stuff but don’t see their intangible life i.e their mind. If there was no hell we won’t know what heaven in. All our experiences in the 3 worlds are based on pairs of opposites without it you don’t have the experience. Therefore, these opposites have the purpose to generate certain kinds of experience. What kind of opposites are we creating as they look so bad. They have been created not in reality but to look like reality out of illusion. The more real you make it the more real the experience becomes. This vastness we examine is real using sense perception via equipment and introducing law of nature which corroborates that it’s real. Sometimes in dream we can say its a dream. Sometimes you speak the truth without knowing the truth. All realities are created in the same way. The wakeful state becomes real and this state becomes a dream (unreal). At one time only one reality exists all other becomes a dream.
We have used process of illusion to create reality.

32min- When you have only level of reality and if one close other open up…what happens when you keep on doing so…you will find your true home where you find all these were created by one creator and everything was happening within and nothing outside. After having that experience you are left with total experience of our oneness. Then you can say, all are made from consciousness…you are truly enlightened at that time. The spiritual path is a step-by-step awakening where we come to total awakening. What is the role of the mind in the middle which we create two steps down? The mind wants to hold to these 3 realities as only reality at our request and experiences. When we are sitting in the 6th reality and want to think about going back home…the one factor that comes in the way is our own mind. The mind creates doubts and fear…. a good function as without doubt and fear we have no way to test out anything. When I say we meet here we are trying to tell the mind to step aside and remember our priority of spiritual life to go back to our true home. Its a great technique to brush mind aside and via meditation withdraw our awareness…it try to step in as it doesn’t want us to put our attention within ourselves. We are where our mind takes us. People have lost their keys…try meditation…it will look for joy, pleasure, and pain outside and do all to keep you out. It’s not functioning as our enemy but functions to create a reality for us and does a good job. But now we are fed up and go back. How come we took such a big risk in our true home? Did we make that mistake of locking ourselves from our own homes? Consciousness did not make that mistake…it kept the means of going back home no matter what level we came down. Something should happen in that show…trigger to give us the key to go back home…that arrangement when we are seeing this world of illusion within the created world…a human being should appear to remind us this is not your world and if we are tired…look I tell you the way…we respect him he knows more…little realising we created him. We call that person a perfect living master. He may be a puppet or shadow…but we have invested in his ability to become friends with us as we go home together we realise he was ourselves. It was our own self to go back home when we are tired of the show.
42min- You want to teach people how to be healthy, go ahead…no role of PLM at all. It’s a good part of the show so you can enjoy the show but no role of PLM in this. PLM takes you beyond the imperfection of these 3 universes. Perfection is created at the top…those who take you above mind are classified as PLMs and come here to take you back home. They only appear when we seek something beyond the mind. When we say we are tired of mind and games we play here… the only difference is in his level of awareness than ours and he can share that awareness not by reason or debate but by unconditional love. They come to take you beyond the 3 worlds of mind.
47min- All these experiences I am mentioning are for mind. Soul has still has experience of love. Love comes from our original consciousness therefore these PLMs employ no other method to pull us above the mind…they pull us with their love. Unconditonal pure love from a PLM has a unique and it does not pull our mind as much as our soul. But that pull is so strong that it can override the mind. There is no judgement in that love. In pure love beloved occupies the entire head…the unconditional love for PLM is like that. Soul has intuitive knowledge without thinking. It comes from the soul…then the appreciation of beauty joy and state of bliss comes from the soul and other functions to our mind, senses and body. The mind wants to be taught methods, and struggle. You have to go through the mind…okay work hard, do more meditation, and physical and mental activities they become temporary teachers for our mind. Then we discover they are using teaching to keep our mind busy and they can pull us through love and devotion. That is why true meditation with these PLMs is a meditation of love and devotion. These monthly meetings are reminders of how distracted we get with our daily activities…human life has great value depending on how we look at it. Master Ji talked about Guru Nanak with a disciple who gave his disciple a red ruby to find out its value from different people who gave different answers. You can make it worth a dozen oranges or make it invaluable…depends on how you take life โค Our life has a unique feature…we can experience free will to make choices. Entire life is predetermined but we can’t see what’s going to happen in the future because of our ignorance we feel we are making decisions. Little realising our thinking, choices is already predetermined and we see we are making choices as an experience not of reality…this great combination put together of a pre-determined destiny. Its only when you seek you can find. Human life is the only species of life that have this experience. Insects, tree, plants, animals all have soul…none of them have the experience including angels, God…only human beings have been given this privilege. Thefore when they say “man is created in the image of God” what is common between the two? Because the creator have real free will and man have experience of free will to back home.
Mind is the creator of time, space and cause and effect and therefore karma.

1hr- We are creating an experience with our mind…but who are we, really? When we go within ourselves we find we are not the body, sense perception, or thinking mind but a unit of consciousness…we go within further and the soul is not separate from the totality and that we are the creator. Imperfection is created to make an opposite world of perfection. What about pairs of opposites…in totality there is none there but we make this as the opposite of that! Greatest wonder all this knowledge can be conveyed to us by our own creation…by PLM when he comes into our life he opens all these doors for us…we set up this whole show and find no difference between PLM and us. The show from travelling to levels is wonderful. Inside and outside are the same…outside is a reflection of what is inside. The outside is also an experience taking place from inside… the real image is inside. When we experiences in spirituality they don’t always happen inside but both outside and inside and those little things create living faith. I hope we will take advantage of this to find our true selves. Thank you very much for your patient listening. And see you if you have any questions and if you like we can do an actual meditation. Thank you very much we will have a break now.
