Attachments Are Mistaken To Be Love | Ishwar Puri (Part 2 of 2)

Welcome friends to this afternoon session of our monthly meeting. When I come into these meetings you may notice I greet you because we are all the same and greet our creator in each other โค I saw lot of happiness on your faces…lunch must have been good. Happiness comes from inside…when you are in love you are always happy. If you want to be ALWAYS happy…just experience love at all times. A lot of times some attachments and attractions are mistaken to be love and breakup. It true love you forget I…the beloved replaces the lover. That kind of experience you don’t get ordinarily. If you do get that experience with people of true love…you cannot sustain it because you are dependent for all your experiences on mind…mind thinks and creates doubts causing fear…so you have doubt about your true love. The human mind is the best device because it can create an experience of time and space…past and future and present. Without mind no past, present and future. It creates the past by memory. The immediate past is considered as present. Mind is creating concepts via memory of past and present. What about future? The mind creates that too…by hoping, fearing, and anticipating…if these 3 words were removed from our language there will be no future. Mind creates time (kaal). We talk of timeless state in our true home….there was no beginning…when we left our true home…when did we leave there was no time. We are confined to time…imprisoned to time created by mind through memory. In order to put events in our life we create memory. By putting it like this we are getting into real trouble and creating new law…law of karma…cause and effect which cannot exist without time. Time and space, btw, are the same thing.

10min- When we want to create events of life, we place them on space-time and put them on different places and through memory we go through them. If you examine this proposition you will notice its all a game of memory. Memory has created past, present and future. True use of free will the soul has freedom to pick up first capsule. There is a wonderful system that capsule itself requires cause and effect. When you want to do good things…and get a good result it has to be done prior to getting the result. That sounds silly…the cause has to come first so….when we are born as human being and born sick, blind…therefore the law of cause and effect itself requires to have one life you have to have a previous life. When you are here..you have lived no life to create that but the capsule contains memory of past life which becomes your past life even if you have nothing to do with it. It gives you freedom to express free will therefore you know you are doing good or bad. The soul has no karma whatsoever and we create karma via time. Once we are here…then the second life becomes a reality for us and so on and we are trapped in the law of karma. What a strange trap…thank God there is a way to get out. So many heavens in the astral plane. God, there is ‘being’ separate from you ๐Ÿ™‚ All these talks about heaven have created universes like ours. Its all operating within the mind..to go beyond the mind rare event but it happens. You must be pulled out of this unbreakable wall that pulls you but not push through this wall as all pushing is done by the mind. Only love from the other side can pull you. Only love and devotion can take you beyond the mind …all effort is mental. Effort is not the method, it is this effortlessness of experience and pulled by love. Master Ji shared a goofy story of his friend talking about effortless experience ๐Ÿ™‚ A PLM is nobody else than your own true self appearing as a human being. All these things I say…verify inside. Don’t think a PLM is somehow superior to you…we all are the same, no difference. You are all PLMs if you wake up to that level of consciousness.

21min- Master Ji talked about a visit to Japan about a special kind of rice which can assist in enlightenment. I don’t know any food in the world will help with enlightenment. Then Master Ji talked about Mexican mushrooms, Richard Alpert (Baba Ramdas) and Timonth Leary who investigated Mexican mushrooms. They setup yoga centre to get experiences…great experiences but no enlightenment. It is not necessary to remember effort is done for the sake of our minds as we have been indoctrinated that without struggle we get nothing. Yes, you have to work hard in order to see it fails…you can meditate hard and it fails its not a lesson of failure but you will note accept it till you fail…till you fail then you realise its something else. When you are guided by a PLM…he will say meditate via Love and Devotion. Master Ji talked about his fellow spiritual co-traveller Hira Singh…value of Love and Devotion โค If we learn that the secret of spiritual success is love and devotion and rest is for the mind. I told him…I am a vegetarian and not consume meat but main reason is my master said this. Its not the diet but whether I am in love with that master…and we can’t do a simple thing we say…its a minor thing. You are not doing these things but making your mind realise love is superior. He made good progress. Meditation and all these instructions are for our current state of mind.

32min- We can’t say we can’t give up struggle….that’s itself is a struggle. People tell me about experience I had…I had a deal with my master when I was young…this body is like a city and there is a market place and if you want to have a real-deal to there and get it. After hearing that I went to master for a deal. I want to give you all my worries, problems, difficulties, and you give me all the happiness and joy…he said done. He kept his word and I kept mine. Master will keep his word but you will not be able to keep yours โค Then deal is off…so you can’t have a deal when you can’t keep your word. It requires an ability to control your mind and not go by its advise but intuitive experiences from master. Master tells you all the time with coincidences and experiences on what to do. A deal can be done..its all based on love and devotion and not on mental stuff. I share these experiences towards the last part of my life if there is any benefit to you…you are very blessed to be human being and to be seekers and I assure you that you will find. If you are seeking worldly things you will get them and not true home…but f you are thinking of true home you will get that.
