Welcome friends at this afternoon session. You can hear me at the back…can you hear me now at the back. This is the first day of our three-day program. I am very happy to see all of you. This is a moment we can really look at our life is our time come..our we ready…we do a self-evaluation…are we ready? Have we done enough…finished our roles here and fulfilled our karma/ duties. There is a certain time that comes in our life when we feel we are ready to go back home. It is not necessary for everybody to have same time. Therefore, PLM only appears then the time is right. When we are ready starts from our own heart. PLM in human form will accept you and his acceptance is sometimes called initiation or naam-daan or diksha or acceptance…what happens then is that the PLM says I am now going to be with you forever. Can we see him inside and have a conversation with him inside? In fact, a better conversation can be taken place inside than outside. This is a big thing…this is not us dealing with a teacher…this is a relationship which is internal and continuous forever. A master’s initiation is forever and not teaching. There was a very poor man who used to have a vision of GM. He thought it was Guru Nanak…and shared with others. They said it sounded like GM…he had no money packed his few belongings and carried on his shoulder. He walked almost a month to reach Dera…the day he reached there…a few Satsangi including myself stood outside…he was coming out of the door…GM saw this man…he threw his bag and put his head on his feet and asked for naam dan. GM said what once again…you were initiated a month ago when you left your home. Because of the previous initiation in past life but I will give you a formal initiation tomorrow. Anybody can teach you meditation but that is not initiation. PLMs are not teachers but pretend for sake of our mind. They are coming because of our time to go back home…initiation means a guarantee returned to our home with that master.

11min- Separation is just an illusion of the creation…its a created separation for the sake of experience. These different levels have been created by our own conciseness to diversify the experience it can have. We are separate from the total (via illusion) therefore we have to search the total. Master Ji shared story when he was young about drop and the ocean concept of our soul. God is Love and Love is God. The creation of separation was to have an experience of own nature of totality. Love can be experienced in every form but we made a little mistake when we came here…instead of taking love as oneness…we have not really separated…as love removes separation. We, however, called another experience called attachment and began to call it love. Attachment is a game of ego. The beloved occupies everything and we don’t think of the ‘I’ it is put on the backbench and the beloved comes first. When we experience love where we are pulled without any effort…that happens to us. When love comes there is no mind (or thought)…when you think then all the doubting mechanisms of the mind come into play and destroy the experience of love. But if love flows such a way that doubt is meaningless is from PLM which is so steady in our life…doubting mind is overridden and love prevails. We are really living the mind’s life which means the mind is our master. Mind is our servant to help us…we listen to those mind thoughts and acting upon them. Little realise that is not our instructions of the mind and we end up becoming slaves of our mind. Mind is a great servant if you use it. But as a master, our mind is terrible. But you can TELL mind what to think but how to do so as that is also a thought. So we make use of mechanisms of thinking and divide it by developing a SPIRITUAL Will opposite to MENTAL Will. What is the nature of our spiritual will is what is without mind. We don’t think, or speak but we have intuitive knowledge, This feeling comes to us at all times as its spirit speaks in us…if we rely on it and then tell the mind act on it then we will never go wrong. That is why spiritual will is developed from functions in the spirit. Intuition, love and bliss help develop a spiritual will to control the mind. The easiest is intuition and we get that all the time.

27min- Leading the mind to do what you want…this intuition cannot be developed. Development is a mental process. Rapid thought cannot be called intuition… Intuition is instantaneous. The mind thinks and what to do, it has limited data in front of it to make a decision. Mind information is limited…whereas intuition is coming from information stored in you for several lifetimes, that’s why it turns out to be correct. As you go further with intuition, your life changes. Can we rely on intuition? Then there is another arrangement we made..if the gut feeling is reliable or not. When you drive a billboard comes and says ‘Go West’…where did that come from? Or you are reading book “In western society” these are called coincidences…it will help you make a decision…it confirms your intuition all the time. You will see this every day all the time. Coincidence of an event where law of probability normally say will not happen but does happen. Sometimes these have been referred to as work of mind or work of God. How do you know if its God’s will? Famous poet Rumi…he answers this question…if God puts spade in your hand…he expresses his will dig etc….but if you start thinking its mental will as the circumstances around you are telling you what to do. What comes in front of you comes from karma…what God requires you to do is dharma…karma is because of past actions…but how you react to them is your dharma..if you react as required at that time then you are performing your dharma. Dharma is your duty in response to your karma… intuitive self is giving what is God’s will. There are many ways one can understand this and the thing is to live in this and make your mind the servant and not your boss. When we think…that’s not correct…I have the soul with the power to make anything alive and empower my mind to think to perform its function. Mind is not different from computer…mind has to be used and power plus is our soul. When we misidentify ourself with the mind and functions of the mind which are sense perception (like I am seeing…no you are using your mind to see!)

36min- People say there is an afterlife…maybe we haven’t see it. We know this thing that right now we are in this body…when we say we are living in this body…are we really living in it or just an experience created by something else? To explain this point- I will tell you what time is for us… it’s an important factor in creating these experiences. Time is a negative power (kaal)…why so much sorrow and suffering and little pleasure…actually it looks like that as time is a subjective factor that makes pleasure go quickly and sorrow slowly. Oscar Wilde says suffering is one long moment. When you start meditation now 2 hours have passed…only 10 minutes did 🙂 Time we experience is subjective time not clock time at all. Okay, let me discuss with you what is real-time…it makes us believe there is a past already gone. Master Ji talked about the past, present and future to describe what is time. What we are calling now has no time… it’s a junction between the past and the future. Now has no time whatsoever and we live in no time, and yet we feel we are living in time. He talked about the present being the immediate past and the future being based on hope, fear and anticipation. What we call actual living here is a recall of the past. We are living through a recall of our memories, and we call it life. From the casual plane we access akashic records…we are replying a memory because memory is something that’s already there…we don’t create memory…its already prerecorded and creates past, present and future via memories. Whole concept of life will change because we are trapped by an illusion that the present is real, past and future are real as events are connected via cause and effect. Karma is so strange…that our thoughts, and intentions is creating karma. Action turns it into deeper karma…see how much intention we create in everything. We have little time left to pay off karma in the same life. He talked about sinchit karma (reservior karma).

48min- The attitude of pessimism optimism, laughing, and crying come from? Attitudes have been called sankara. Sanchita karma is affecting also and our life is guided by so many things…time is a kaal. Master Ji talked about karma and its definition. Nature of time, kaal and how events and attitudes hold us back and we create karma at a very fast pace and Sanchitakarma ends up holding us back. Karma is paid off, stored in the mind…this body has a limited lifetime of 100 or less or more and the inner sensory system has a lifetime of 1000-3000 physical years…the mind lasts 3-5 million years. The whole storage of karma takes place in that timeline…this is a big prison. Lord Krishna was worshipped by so many, he was taking care of cows along with his friend Uddhava 🙂 The nature of karma is not easily understood. Is there any way to escape from karma…only one way..to go beyond the mind is true spirituality. How do you raise your awareness beyond the mind except by being pulled by somebody beyond the mind? Love and Devotion…Love pulls us, and Devotion is that response to that Love. If you want to meditate, do it only with love and devotion. I will tell you my personal experience…of Hira Singh…really sweet story on meditating with love and devotion as this is a path of love and devotion ❤

1hr7min- Tomorrow we will meditate and tell you how its done effectively and with love and devotion but tonight prepare…you must walk after your talk…you have listened before and say very good talk and then go home and no change. I want this to be a personal experience otherwise it’s words only. I am talking of stuff where you will be able to hear the resonance of the sound of your own self…no words. Master Ji talked about John’s Gospel and the importance of the Word making everything…its a creative power. To go within we must take the first step to start by being your non-physical self behind the eyes where the journey starts. Spoken words are called varnatmak shabd they are useful but temporary things. The dhunatmak is a sound with no words. These are experiences that can start from here that is why this particular way of getting to know yourself is called surat shabd yoga. I am willing to do meditaiton with you to show you what I am talking about. Thank you very much and I will meet a few people who asked for personal interview.
