Video Description: He had a sore throat as he recently returned from New Delhi where pollution level was very high. He talks about eyes and how both eyes see differently. The vision is not coming from eyes but appears it is. He correlate vision of eyes with imagination.
Imagination creates vision.
The powerful of imagination is vast. That is why when we want to explore the vision of imagination it gives us wonderful ideas…why not see where its happening. Listening with ears…hearing. The two most important perception are so close to our brain. If we want to contemplate…by closing eyes where its all happening… if we are unit of consciousness where would it be…it will be a point exactly in the center of the head…the most well protected part of the body (thick skull)…everything is happening there. He spoke about radiant form of the master with help of using our imagination.
Meditation does not mean we search for something inside it is to discover our own self. Where do we operate to be aware of this world. He spoke about 3rd eye center. If we start living there meditation means putting attention there… when we repeat words (via tongue) mind is clever/ terrible not letting us meditate. Solution would be think our life is in the 3rd eye center (inviting friends inside, have cup of tea or coffee), sing songs inside, do exercise inside, fly inside, jump inside…you need to establish yourself with imagination you can do anything.
Don't discard its 'imaginary' because we think this physical reality is the only reality. This is holding us back as its not as imaginary as we think.
Meditation is not merely repeating words it is to experience yourself how we would be if we have no physical body.
The self (experiencer) never changes but experience changes.
Our self-perception in imagination are same as physical but they become dull in physical world. We we withdraw our attention from this body by putting attention on imaginative self…we discover imaginative self has sharper sense perception and sharper memory. Time as we know it here is all based on memory as we are all living in timeless now. Now has no time. Present / Now is immediate past.
If we stop hope, fear and anticipation then we have no future.
What we all future is also past. All (Past, Present and Future) are experienced from memory. Memory is so important as it generates past for us…a life for us but every memory is related to the body. If we start living in our imaginative self a few hours a day (sensory self) we will start remembering in our astral self. W will remember what happened 100, 200 or 500 years ago! Our own memory will recall. The memory was there before the body was born. We will remember other forms of life we had. The deeper we go in meditation the more we get to know about our real-self. Our inner self is our real-self.
This body is not our-self. Soul never travels- we have no concept of soul at all. Method of imagining at the point inside be there do everything there we will discover sense perception is not our reality. Mind is a thinking machine which will go on. It uses thoughts in many ways…the most important way is it makes sense of the sense perception. Close eyes inside and withdrawal attention there we will become unaware of sense perception. Mind is a machine not life. We need to have life to make mind alive as it lies beyond the mind which is called soul โค Soul makes mind, body alive it makes every kind of experience alive. To discover soul no meditation will not help as its done via mind. The ego is a big obstacle to go beyond the mind. He talked about GM where someone can pull us beyond the mind… our true self pull us…our soul to pull us. Our true home where we are trying to be pulled…is it possible if there is no time and space (which we use for experience in physical plane) we will be immortal then in timeless space! A PLM is aware of the oneness! A PLM is our own self appearing as another human being. PLM says go inside you will really find me better than outside!!!
When we go in mental state, spiritual state we will find him there…when we go to top we will find it was us all along. When is time right to go? Time is right when we are seeking inside when I say I have had enough, when these feelings come and we want to seek. Its not searching (which is outside) seeking is inside. Mind is always speaking and thinking but who hear? Hearing is done by soul at all time. Power of listening is so valuable as its much more of our real-self. Therefore listening should be a great method of meditation much more than speaking. Where is self thinking from… it will desire to find self is very strong then self can be heard even without speaking. We can hear the self as a sound. The sound of the self comes from the self. Sound of language (we call it vanartmak sound which can be spoken) if we go within and only hear sound of bells that is not language its powerful its called dhunatmak sound. Further withdrawal of attention to casual plane the sound turns into which can be heard forever. We are pulled beyond the mind by Love we have gone in the timeless state, in state of being aware which cannot be described there we discover the sound we heard was our true-self (wow!!!!), sathshabad. Sound is being generated from totality of consciousness. He talked about The Bible (In the beginning was the Word), Rigveda (Naard) also Gurugranth Sahab (Shabad) i.e. sound is referred in all holy scriptures. The sound also beyond the mind becomes nature of the self. The most important function of soul is experience of Love.
Why we came here? We never came anywhere we are still there but took awareness to different state (like sleeping and dreaming) as we never left our true home. He used glass of water made of drops to explain this where drop of water is where our awareness has been reduced to individualization. Why was this done and why world created with pain and suffering? WHY???? ๐ฆ Firstly, if God is Love it cannot be a lover. To make it an experience we generate the many…obviously many soul became experience of Love (lover and beloved). Similarly appreciation, bliss, joy are experience if there is more than one. Our soul is nothing but division of Love. We make world of duality (darkness to appreciate life etc.). How can we appreciate non-duality but creating its opposite duality and then we expand it by dividing perceptions via sense perception we add matter via body. Consciousness functions with great precious in different form all together. At the end we realise…we are all one ๐ Only difference between PLM and us is the level of awareness. How they appear in our life? They do so via coincidences. They responding to our inner seeking not outer shouting. They are actually our true-self. By appearing outside they appear inside forever… they appear when we are ready to back to our true-home. PLM come back to take us back to our true home.
