Yesterday, I mentioned to you that only those people who feel they had enough of this life in this physical world and need to go back to their true home…they should continue to have a good time (if they are happy here). We all have a fixed time when we are ready to go back home. A PLM automatically appears in our life when we are ready to go back home which is pre-arranged. The PLM is nothing different for any of us he is a human being- there is no difference whatsoever- his perfection does not consist of physical body but of fact while he is here with us…his attention, consciousness, awareness is at all levels of experience including our true home. He is aware at all time of our route to go back to our true home. All of us can do that- the capacity of being at all levels exists in all of us. Everything is within our true home. Truth is there is only one. We have never been separated from our ture home but lost awareness of it. Its a journey of becoming aware of our own true home which is already with us. Nothing exist outside of a true home. Only thing we have lost is awareness of our true home. Physical existence is just a temporary existence and nobody is in this state forever. The moment we leave this body, the existence takes that form also. This world is made of matter-atoms (quantum mechanics)! 99.9999% is made up of space (void). In fact, some say it is probably 100% space! We have placed matter into space…this world we are living in is existence in space and time and created..energy that exists in space becomes matter. The moment we die…we transform ourselves into different forms and that form has no molecules or atoms and yet it is existence…an existence solely upon the experiences of the senses (see, hear, smell, touch…) it continues to exist because we are having experience with 5 senses with no matter whatsoever. Our astral body is nothing more than the capacity of conciseness to function without any matter. We create a world around us depending upon what awareness we have. We do not stay more than 100 years in this body…yesterday I was reading an article that we have no capacity us to live beyond 125 years with transplanted organs. But the capacity for existence does not allow us! We find fossils of dinosaurs which existed 180 million years ago…and someone saw them. How much is our life here…very small. The bubble is created by air getting filled into it…we are in the same state…we have short experiences in different forms of existence. Many people mistakenly think the inner body is our soul…but our soul is consciousness but these forms are created out of different levels of consciousness and when the astral form dissolves we are left with another body…casual body or the mind.

12min- Even after we leave our physical body we still have another body which is thinking in us today…thinking machine that analyzes things. The mind functions also in limited time. All humans have the same capacity…when we have that experience we discover our human being which uses logic, makes sense perception and the physical body understandable to us that the mind is also a body. The only thing in us that never dies will never die is our own aatma/ soul and does not require a body. It assume these bodies for different types of experiences. Without them it lies state of bliss of total knowing…the love and bliss is amazing things that it can do with intuitive knowledge. Love is the greatest feature 🙂 When soul is only one which is the Ultimate Truth. If we realise this fact and everything we see here and other planes all are part of one….one becomes many. One becomes many because of its very nature contains love, its made up of love…its total knowledge and bliss. Bliss is not happiness…happiness comes when we have unhappiness but bliss has no opposite. The bliss, total knowledge and power of love it develops in many and become an experience within itself. Master Ji talked about the drop and ocean analogy when he was young. I (Ishwar Ji) thought it was a lose-lose situation but I was wrong….if the ocean is total and perfect there can be no drop going out of it. We were little drops of the ocean but still in the ocean and never left it but left was an awareness and knowledge that we were the ocean. Our spiritual journey was to regain the knowledge that we are the ocean. The spiritual journey is not going anywhere, what you are finding is already with you. You have to find the awareness of it. The principle of finding awareness is- that we never change but everything else do. The whole universe dies, every experience dies but self remains the same no matter what your form is. I mentioned the Chinese philosopher Fa-Hein who thought he was a butterfly. Even in our true home, it will be the same SELF. Self never changes and everything else does. We can observe different levels of consciousness but we do not become the form. Here is the catch…we instead of knowing who the self is begin to take the form we have as our self. When we die and leave the body behind we have a different name and yet that is not our name…when that body dies then we are the mind and soul put together to experience thought, space, time, and creativity and still have a form and yet that name we give to that form is not us…when we become individuated soul…that is still a cover upon the totality but we become one total then there is no name to that self. We identify ourselves with the form and now we are in the physical body. Nothing goes with you…physical things and objects and people and experiences stay with your physical body and when you leave it…all is left behind. Same for astral and causal plane experiences.

26min- We can die while living in this physical body then we can know this is only my cover and I was living in it and before I die I can know! But you can go further…meditate with the inner body and become unaware of it and discover you were never inner body either. You can go further…some people have gone beyond the universal mind which creates all the three worlds and find out even the mind is not our self. This ability to go beyond all these and discover we are the soul and then totality…this discovery can we made while we are sitting in the physical body. The section below eyes control our physical life and contains all the circuitry of energy that establishes centres of energy…all energy exists in these six centres. Above that there are no center of energy but awareness/ knowing. I may have mentioned to you before about an experience that my master and some of us had when we went to Karachi where my uncle who was a meteorologist used to work…his house was beautiful on Cliffton Beach. Fun story with Swami Brahmanand who was trapped with Love by GM ❤

42min- Swami made great progress in understanding that there are not only six physical centres but anda centres behind the eyes and brahmanda and then suchkhanda. He got initiated and given the method of meditating to go up not down…it took him some time as he has been meditating in the lower centres. GM said this is a matter of practise…with practise you would be able to hold your attention and start from there and not go down because actually the practise swami ji was doing which many are doing. The method was simply to be in a wakeful state…our attention starts from the eyes in the wakeful state and in sleep it drops. We drop our attention not from the front but back…spine behind is like an elevator…we drop ourselves to the bottom and from there we use different mantras and step by step we climb up to the next centre and we make circle complete for yoga of the six centres. GM was saying forget about those but not go down.

46min- Why should we go below the wakeful state if we want to awake into higher awareness. I find people practicsing in many countries where they have out of body experiences by focusing on heart chakra…they go into a state where they can see their body which can be done by practices but that is merely an energetic reflection but you have much more. Actual practice does not require and yoga below the eyes. His method says you should start from the 3rd eye centre behind the eyes. My talking is no good if there is no walking behind it and today we will practice. There is no scope whatsoever for blind faith. Never believe even your own guru till you have experienced yourself but do not disbelief if somebody else have experienced it; therefore have this attitude…I want no blind faith. We exist nobody can deny that or need any proof for that…that is certain knowledge. When we go to sleep…and we wake up in the morning and we are certain we have woken up…when you wake up nobody pinches to know if you are awake…you know you are awake not by opening your eyes…you are lying in the same state when you went to sleep…that wakefulness is certainty. What makes that experience so certain? Because you remember going to sleep. Its the same kind of experience, you must have to call it certain. That is why I say in the practice of meditation you must have an experience of certainty not of doubt…that happens when you link that experience with the prior experiences…we come out of our true home which we still have with us but we have just forgotten it. It applies to every level of wakefulness. That is why I say…you must only believe what you are certain about not what you are doubtful about. No necessary to believe flimsy experiences. We can die while we are living…how do we do so? We can watch people who die physically…I have seen lots of people do so. We can do the same thing now without dying by withdrawing our attention…with three gifts- a wakeful state of knowing what’s going on, within conciseness what exists…immediate awareness…within awareness, we can narrow it down to small part of awareness by putting attention there. Concentrate your attention on the flowers…the flower alone will be seen by you and the rest of our awareness has no significance…the power to concentrate attention are gifts given to us…we can pay the same attention to ourselves. What would happen if we place the same attention on flowers but inside on our ourselves…we will be more awareness of inside than outside. At least we know the body is not ourselves…what is the capacity of that self inside us to function we will be delighted to know it can see more clearly than we do so with our eyes. It can hear better and other sense perceptions. We can do the same process of going behind the eyes to our inner-self.

1hr2min- You will begin to withdraw attention from sense perceptions and yet you can think and talk and the soul that is making the mind alive will still be there…you will be totally alive with this body breathing normally and yet you are unaware of it. It’s the unawareness created by tools like imagination, attention and concentration of attention. You can go even further to realise you are formless energy to realise you are made up of light and sound and the capacity to think…that’s your mind empowered by your soul. What’s the importance of sound? In all religious traditions, I have found the importance of sounds. 11 religions I studied all of them emphasised on external sounds and we love music. People go to concert they enjoy it…its because the best music is inside us not outside and when can we hear the music? Its merely sound but becomes beautiful when goes into different tunes…our aatma/consciousness itself is form of the highest music. It can’t be called sound as it requires air, yet it is music it is audible and can be heard. The connection is simple…I am speaking to you through words they are sound…master ji talked about varnatmak and dhunatmak sounds. Master Ji elaborated sounds inside us and specifically the bell sounds…we can hear them by concentrating our attention to the third eye centre. We switch from one sound to another…varnatmak to dhunatmak which is coming from within ourselves. You will forget your body…it will pull you into the inner body faster…that is why this particular method of meditation is called surat shabd yoga which is practised by listening to dhunatmak sound. And you can go beyond by withdraw from that sound to inner self…the sound changes…it is a continuous sound but you enter into the sound…you get the experience that sound has always been there and has no beginning or end. We give different name is called anhad shabd. You can go into what’s called Saar shabd. Love coming from beyond the mind where you find you and the master are the same. What happens when you experience that love…you feel to do anything to hold on is called devotion (bhakti)…you become a bhakt when you are pulled by that love.

1hr15min- When we are ready to go to our true home…all these things happen. Trying is very small function of the mind. Master Ji talked about his friend who found this path is totally effortless…at the end he wrote “I will now try very hard to be effortless meditation”. The pull of love is not effort…you are pulled by it…final journey from aatma to paraatma is only through love and devotion. What is the role of a human being like ourselves we call a perfect living master…his role is merely to pull you with his love and take you back home. The mind loves classification. I was in college in Ludhiyana and studied my master’s degree in English. I was not really qualified compared to others…one was a tall man, I did one thing they didn’t do…I prepared a list of 10 points that what the president union should do. I was the last speaker at the debate…I given a printed copy. I got the overwhelming majority of votes and taking advantage of mind-loving breaking things into numbers. I will give you one more example. At one point in my service career, I was appointed as the Dandakaranya project. Fun story of Master ji about human mind and classification 🙂 Our mind is like that- Some people draw diagrams of six centres and of higher levels…nice picture people love it… the picture is not true at all as there are no stages but within you and you become unaware of one form and so on. Mind will note accept that but accept levels that we create as that its nature. We go with the mind and open up experiences inside that cannot be described by non-space and non-time and yet we write books about it. Master Ji talked about Baba Jaimal Singh and Swami Shiv Dayal Singh. Swami ji used to describe the beauty of our true home. Our truth is outside time and space.

1hr27min- People take me to their home and show their meditational chamber…all I see is things they can meditate up on. Do not start meditaiton unless you have gone inside the start point…let’s do it now! You got some sample of what you can get…the more you practise the better you will get. How many of you felt I should have not counted 5 and you would have continued. People don’t do meditation like that…they think meditation is like a chore. I told you the story of my friend in San Francisco. I have to keep my face for meditation at 3’o o’clock in the morning! Funny story 🙂 I was not trying to meditate but to keep him company closed my eyes…so that is why I would open my eye from time to time to see what he is doing…I don’t know if it was a coincidence every time I opened my eyes he was doing this (looking at his watch)…it was so difficult to spend 2.5 hours…that is how he meditated…with great torture, we finished meditation…I said we did not meditate on the third eye centre but on your watch LOL. Meditation must be enjoyed…I saw you all were happy in meditation ❤

1hr30min- Do you have some questions? Any possibility to translate your satsang in Hindi? I said the same thing in Hindi only the other day…on 6th a recording was done in an Asharam here…it will also be put on Youtube. I must tell you I say the same thing every time. Go within…truth is inside and method is simple…I have been saying it for 60 years no new thing. In fact my wife stopped coming to my talks as I repeat the same thing. Translation in Hindi will be avaialble. I gave a talk in Dubai in Hindi and recently they found it out on Youtube….that was a better one because somebody (audio talk) had a cassette and I was driving and he put the cassette on in the car…look wonderful discourse to me…as I listened this guy must know something…I said this is so beautiful…only at the end when the speaker said what I am saying what I am saying is like a parrot…that’s me 🙂 So I repeated very accurately so I myself enjoyed the talk…till then I said its only mine…that talk is available it’s a good talk. Question in Hindi. My answer is..kyo band karo…log mandir jaate hai…church mai jaate hai..kush hotay hai…aur us halat mai…aap bhajan aacha kar saktya hou. Continue those things but know truth will not be found outside done to keep peace around you, especially in the house but practise meditation to find the truth inside. You don’t have to change your religion and follow but truth will always be inside you and do this meditation…this is pure spirituality not religion. The origin of all religions is pure spirituality. I want to tell you a little story…my father was married to a woman whose mother had a beautiful temple in her house…she used to worship (aarti) all those Gods and Goddesses. My father got initiated by GM and went to his mother-in-law and said why are you doing all this…they are all external…she rebuked him they are real. My father went to GM for help…GM said don’t worry I will come and talk to her…he visited my naniji’s home and he said I understand you have a temple…she said yes I do…can I also go there…most welcome…he went there and bowed to all the Gods and Goddess and did aarti. My grandmother was so happy…and she looked at my father that your master knows the real thing. And master was very happy…sitting there…he left my grandmother was very happy that your guru accepts them. She came to attend discourses…she said he knows the truth that’s why he came to my house. She got initiated and began to do meditation and was so happy seeing the guru inside she forgot about her temple. After 6-7 months she asked for a personal interview with GM…she said master I am doing my meditation but I am concerned about my temple with those murtis…what shall I do with them. He said do you have a brown bag where you bring data. Go and put them all in that bag and tie up the bag and confine them to the river when you get a chance.

1hr 42min- How did that happen? How did GM turn that lady’s mind all around…he did it by becoming her friend and then master. Same with Swami Brahmanandam. GM went to Sikh Gurdwara in Rawalpindi…another interesting and loving story. Jo Mange Thakur…Master explained this beautiful poem ❤ We have not to give up our religion and traditions just because they are giving us truth…follow what the religion says…they will all say truth is inside you not outside. If you want to have a real deal. I can explain any text of any religion founder have said the same thing about truth is to be found inside not outside. This is the temple, real mandir where you can ring inner bells…they ring by themselves. This is the real church…this body is everything they are making Buddhist temples, domes were made, which we carry on our head…single message of all founders of all religions is go inside and find the truth but it is so misinterpreted that are ‘Gods’ are divided just because we are following one set of traditions. I live in America and I meet my Christian friends and say lets go to church and hear good sermons. John’s Gospel’s opening sentence are in the beginning wsa the word…all things are made by him and nothing that was made by him. Rig veda says the same just in Sanskit! Both are true. Therefore, we should not fight about religions but every religion is telling us the real temple and church are within us and worship there…thank you very much for listening to me attentively.
