Working on oneself is an ongoing process, but not all done on a conscious level. The idea of “learning to love oneself” and care and nurture one’s own needs is quite healthy. But again, much can be accomplished in this direction by increasing one’s awareness and strengthening one’s devotion. Through service to others, for example, one learns to love oneself as he loves others. Of course, the reverse is true. Continue reading “We Have to Train the Mind” |
Suffering Prepares a Person for God
|
When there is more trouble oftentimes there is more opportunity to teach the fire. Suffering prepares a person for God. Now all of man is suffering the effects of pollution. So Agnihotra can go all over the world now. Now comes a time when we have to learn to live in this world and still maintain spiritual life. People generally are not able to integrate the two. Of course that is everyone’s lesson in this time. We cannot run off to the Himalayan mountains and live like monks. It is not that way now. Continue reading “Suffering Prepares a Person for God” |
Inculcate Wisdom Through Silence
|
Once you make the choice to serve others in whatever way you can, automatically at each turn, you are given these subtle hints and guidance comes through any channel necessary at the time. Guidance can come in dreams, in everyday conversation with a stranger, in reading; even through music subtle guidance comes. |
Misery Loves Company
|
When you become more aware of things around you, you know things automatically. Still one must be still. For example we may be aware of what you are thinking but if you do not tell us we do not have the right to intervene. We can say some things to give indication but we cannot say directly. It is like that both in thought and action at a certain stage. Then other things happen once you rise a little higher. People begin to tell you everything they are thinking, feeling. Then you have even greater responsibility to guide, to listen, to comfort, to heal. BUT NOT INTERFERE. |
On the Material Plane All is Confusion
On the material plane all is confusion, all disillusion, all illusion. Once you rise higher there are no separations. What you are experiencing at present is very difficult for you to assimilate while attending to material matters. |

Life Goals
|
One has to develop in life goals for oneself. You can have short -term and long-term goals. Then it is good to keep these goals in mind when making decisions in life. Your goals are your choice. But it is important to examine them and perhaps to outline a plan for achieving them. Always keep in mind that there are more choices available to you than appear at any given time. Keep good company. |
Never Associate with Violence of Any Kind
|
We must never associate with violence of any kind. Only total love. You are being worked on in a big way. Now it becomes easy for you to rise much higher very quickly. Those who seek personal gain only find their own destruction. Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven and all shall be added unto thee. Let not seeds of past desire confuse the state of happiness you are still capable of reaching. Surrender and “Thy will be done.” Continue reading “Never Associate with Violence of Any Kind” |

Carelessness
|
All these incidents which have been happening — accident, losing things — are all due to the lack of attention, carelessness. It is not mere carelessness. You need to focus your energy in the moment. MANTRA is the tool for that. |
The Four Corners of the World Must Be Reached
|
The four corners of the world must be reached. The necessity is now emergency. In no other form will this Love go. In no other way will His light travel. Only through Agnihotra, only by His hand, only ones blessed to do this work. Continue reading “The Four Corners of the World Must Be Reached” |
