Welcome friends…again I am happy to see all of you. In the morning I was talking about some basic truth about our own self…which is soul which has come into this created world to have different experiences and we are suppose to go back home. We forgot who we were and got so much attached to the experiences in the physical world that we got caught up in a trap. Our true home is within our own self…outside is a projected experience from inside and creates an outward world. I have lost a few teeth and may find some missing words in my voice โค How many of you can understand what I am saying? (laughter)…I did not lose my teeth merely by old age but pulled out by dentist so I can have surgery in my knees. I have fewer left now…some are half..so it is in imperfect state but all our physical life is imperfect. We have cut the truth into little pieces call day and night…here and there…time and space are cutting experiences in small pieces but there is place inside us where we can see the whole picture…this show of creation has taken place in stages. From true home we went into phase of individuation. This creation is a reflection and one has become many. What was the need for this? Need was because that need, totality of consciousness- that ultimate reality has certain features in it…those features are called love, intuition, real knowledge and blissful state. These belong to that one…one was love and knowledge but it was not experiencing that it was only one…it created many to have experience of love and knowledge and bliss. Master Ji talked about the ocean and drop concept. We lost the awareness of the ocean…spiritual path is to recover your own truth. We are all even right now part of the ocean never left it. We lost the awareness…and spiritual path is to regain that awareness of who we are and this awareness was spread out into drops. To make love into experience one became many. The soul are dancing and enjoying as they are expressing love for each other. But some of the souls are sitting in physical body and are not aware what is happening there…when these souls here go back into awareness they are always part of that ocean…these souls will dance even more and other souls will ask what is so special about you…we can tell them you dont know what you are missing ๐
12min- Our coming to experiences here gives us added appreciation of who we really are…don’t forget to appreciate our true home…we won’t appreciate being there only. Adding a mind to the soul and immediately powered by the soul and began to create a world of time and space and this universe came into being. We call casual stage as everything is caused from there…it is the head-quarters of mind and there is only mind (just like The Borg) just like one ultimate source but is divided by illusion in all of us. We hear, touch separately…in meditation you go to that stage you can see do everything without dividing. Furthermore, we got 5 senses, we call it the astral body. The final stage we put on a physical world…and we are living in that right now…each kind of body creates a different world…when we have a physical body we see the physical world. A French philosopher came to me for understanding these terms. Soul is consciousness and makes us alive, soul is life…mind becomes alive when it starts thinking… concepts come from the mind…its then translated into sense perception and becomes and idea and the idea becomes object of substance in the physical world. Therefore, ideas creates physical plane…Greek philosopher…Socrates and Plato. How can idea be more real than physical world…nothing is created in physical world if there was no idea to create it. He gave an example of chair. Idea was born out of a concept. Physically we manufactured different shapes of chair from one single idea…without that idea no chair would exist. Concepts come from mind and translate into ideas and then physical plane gives shape to those ideas. If you examine we are moving through these means…in meditation we can reverse all these and see world of ideas, concepts and world of power consciousness that made these alive. We are still functioning in our own true home but lost awareness. I tell you an interesting experience of meditation of a man who was master of my master…Baba Jaimal Singh Ji….his master was Seth Shiv Dayal Singh of Agra who setup the Radha Swami Group. Jaimal Singh was missing his master and wrote to his master…my beloved Swami Ji I am missing you too much and want to come and have your darshan…please tell me when I can come and see you…a beautiful story โค
This journey is to recognize who we really are, and we will find we are part of the one and created many for the experience of love, true knowledge and blissful state.

23min- Master Ji continued the story of Jaimal Singh Ji and his guru Swami Ji of Agra. Due to karmic obligations, he was allowing him to continue to work here by blinders on his eyes, and when I opened those blinders he remembered. It means when there is so much love and devotion that you miss something, you are making progress inside. We can’t be human beings if we don’t have karma. Karma is essential to survive here. If all karma is good then you cannot be a human being but will end up in heaven…rewards of your good karma. Same for bad things going to hellโฆcombination of good and bad gives human life. Master Ji talked about Julian Johnson. He was an American missionary who came to India to convert people to Christianity. Beautiful story โค Mr and Mrs Brock were two initiates of GM and asked him to meet the man with the white beard to just go and see him. He was keen to come and see him. This story also includes Bhagat Singh who was an attorney…goofy but incredible story. We come across a PLM by a series of coincidences.
34min- When the time is ready to meet him…at that time we feel we are ready. PLM is different from others and doesn’t come here to teach but takes us back home, period. This soul is ready to go back home..he appears and becomes a friend and takes back the soul to its true origin through one method only…love and devotion not meditation, working and struggling hard. Meditation is a mental activity…soul does not struggle but the mind does. They come to take us as friends, as co-travellers..a very big difference. They say we will go together as a friend… the spiritual journey is a journey…they train us how to be positive and go together and once they accept us as friends (initiation by a PLM)…its the biggest event that can take place according to me by initiation in human life by a PLM. We have created a reality..when you will die an astral reality will open up. I also see a non-physical reality which is an astral reality because in these experiences we find the colour of sky changes.
43min- A PLM or anybody who reaches same state is able to hold the attention at all levels at the same time. Time-space comes from there so definition of the creator of the 3 worlds is correct but time-space is above that which is parbrahm. PLM are human being like us…everything they have we all have only difference is awareness of who they are. Awareness in true homes is total. After that PLM talks to us from level we are…its not an experienced person…these people are aware of everything when they speak so they don’t speak from learning. They don’t have maybe or perhaps in their talk. They say there is a stone called philosopher stone…masters are not like them, they are the ones that turn iron into philosopher stone (not iron into gold). Furthermore, they come to make us identical to them with total awareness. During the course of spiritual seeking, we do come across many gurus because we have to satisfy the seeking. In order to help the mind get what it wants…mind only wants pleasure, and good experiences therefore they put in good experiences in our life to satisfy the mind but with our effort…mind’s effort goes within to concentrate our attention and see our inner bodies. Beyond mind, the mind cannot do anything…how do you go on the spiritual journey…nothing can take us beyond that. Therefore, the only way to go beyond the mind is to be PULLED by something beyond the mind…the love that exists outside the mind. The true spiritual path is only of love and devotion…meditation is for the mind and love and devotion are for the soul. The real secret of the path is to be drawn beyond the mind which is our own self, which comes in the form of a PLM in human form. The love of a PLM is without judgment. When we appear before them…they are not looking at our body…they are looking at our soul which is ready to go back home โค The effect is on our soul in their presence not on our mind. This is a path of love and devotion only. Only effortless meditation will do the task…putting in no effort but being pulled by the unconditional love of the master. They spot us as the marked soul who will go back to their true home with that master. Mind judges all the time.
53min- Master Ji shared a story of the Great Master and a guy who came to GM and asked for forgiveness of the bad things he did last night. GM said okay you are forgiven…he said thank you thank you and ran away…incredible story. GM said leave me in the category of forgiveness as mind itself punishes us all the time with guilt. The power of the negative world in time-space, they are bent to punish us and reward us but not masters. Rules and regulations are all for the mind. I will tell you story of Trilok Chand…an engineer in Burma…little miserly and his seeking lead him to GM ๐ Another great story together with King Janak. No time is ever wasted in spiritual seeking.
1hr 14min- PLM is no different from us and his awareness is different which we cannot see. That is why when we are ready…Guru appears. A PLM will never say he is a master because he does not need to. When one seeks inside…he appears always. I am telling you from my own experience of travelling 75 times around the world. He is here for the marked souls. You can find teachers…he does not make his teachings a business. He will perform private miracles for seekers. He will never say follow me but say follow the inside guru. These are some basic things when you hit upon a person who is going to be your PLM but otherwise, you won’t know who is one. When he comes into our life…we feel a change…in our spirit…there is a little tussle between our mind and soul. Soul is very happy but the mind is doubtful. The method these masters teach is for accessing your ownself inside are customised for each person. Master Ji shared the story of man and daughter meeting GM as an example of this. I found book spiritual gems containing letters of master to his American disciples which are contradictory in many cases. Therefore, it’s a personal experience we have with a PLM that guides us what to do. I promised to you in the morning that we would do some meditation. Before we do so, I normally do two exercises…one is called the orange juice experiment. The object of doing it was that you could move your attention anywhere in the body. You move your attention from top of your head all the way down. This very attention you will use effectively in meditation.
1hr24min-Experiment number two- in this experience you will go to the place where we meditate…3rd eye centre at the sixth floor. Place to meditate is inside…if you like rugs put them there, flowers, incense have them there…whatever has to be done effectively has to be done inside not outside. Close your eyes…sit behind the eyes…how many of you could see flowers? How many of you have seen flowers changing colors…emitting light and color…very good…how many of you could taste a drink and remember it…taste of a new drink today…taste of a snack…this exercise merely show you these five perceptions…experience of touching tasting smelling is same that you have here. How many of you saw flowers never seen before…so many of you this means something exists inside not outside even though your eyes were closed. This was an experience of inner self and no matter involved all imaginary experiences came from within yourself. Your inner experience carries all sense perception. How many of you could do this…know this place now well enough to meditate there…all meditation starts there not outside at all…looks like a simple but important statement. If you want to make your meditation successful always go there first and then start meditation. It was so important that…I had a headstart when I got initiated young but lost many years. I went to GM and he told me first you establish yourself there before you start any meditation.
1hr32min- GM taught Master Ji on how to ‘jump in’ to the sixth floor prior to meditation. I came to this country to study in the 60s and attend satsangh. Your attention will gather inside if you start putting attention on things outside. That’s where I was introduced to spiritual gems. At 16 places I marked within the book where GM stated to start meditation inside, which many overlooked. In few minutes I would like to take up some questions. You can read one question at a time. Our successfullness and failure is based on our karma…very often PLMs when helping their disciples to move forward they want you to pay off karma faster than normal. The purpose of PLM not to lessen the karma…but to tired of this physical life and go back home. Their object is to take you inside that is why sometimes you have that experience but if the hardship is too much they will take it upon themselves the hardship to help you. They are trying to take you out of the worldly activities. My views are that spiritual path is a completely one one-on-one relationship with a guru. When guru initiates you…he becomes your friend…friend first and guru afterwards. Guru is revealed when you see him inside before that its just blind faith. The real thing is to see his radiant form inside and at that time no matter how many followers there are…your guru will have a one-on-one relationship with you. But what happened throughout history gurus have come they have come for marked souls but many other people also come and get benefits come but not all of them are not marked. List A are people whose master has come to take them back home in the same lifetime but some others have darshan of master and get marked for another master for the same or future life and work their way out. Closeness to physical master is essential. One American disciple asked him this question how often we should come and see you. Master Ji talked about his grandfather. Darshan is looking at the master…especially his forehead and eyes because his mind cannot make it up. These are just little tips given to us to know if the mind is making up things for us. Religion goes into ritual and ceremony…truth is you go to your master for darshan…second part is the master gives attention to you is called drishti… which is more valuable. You should have his drishti…at least once a year. The key is not to tell people who are spiritual in a non-spiritual family. Its an internal relationshp and show love and devotion inside that is actually better for spiritual life. I worked in the government and nobody knew I was following a spiritual path…none of them knew till after I retired. Therefore, its not necessary to show-off anything as its an internal relationship. I will see you tomorrow and have some more questions answered…not too much talking more walking inside not outside…thank you very much โค
