Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 God's Guidance Brings So Much Benefit Whatever signals God gives us are always beneficial. If one doesn't follow God's guidance, one can't move forward. It's best not to change God's direction even slightly. To show the path to others is an act of charity. Others have to follow the path; our duty is to show it. Therefore we need to be ever-ready to follow what God wants. Then one can be a good instrument. The ones who play their parts just for namesake have become the main instruments. We have understood that we are souls and that God is our Father, but many of us have not recognized our role in this Confluence Age. One who acts according to God's directions will understand their role well. Our role is to become benefactors. Once you have become a benefactor, you'll automatically become a Bestower. Those whose face is that of a benefactor understand there's benefit in every step. Benefit is merged in whatever God teaches and in whatever service is in front of me. There is benefit and only benefit in everything that happens. The one who has faith in their intellect, whose mind is always peaceful and who keeps God in front understands this. God has brought us so much benefit. He's lifted us out of the dirt and rubbish, removed us from the gutter. He's made us into a family of brothers and sisters, children of one Mother and Father. This vision of brotherhood has brought so much benefit. Don't look at anyone else. Observe your own vision. Who's in my vision? My God. God is looking at me, at each one of us. Everyone is watching us. No matter where you are and what you're doing, He's looking at each one of us. Some speak such spicy things that others only want to listen to them. Then they keep thinking of those things. But my heart says I want to listen and speak only to God. I should be such a knowledgeable soul that I understand what I should speak and listen to. I'm such a fortunate soul to sit in God's home. The slogan 'past is past' brings so much benefit to our lives. I give thanks to God for teaching us this lesson. We made so many mistakes but God says, "Past is past. Don't see anything of the past." The past is dead. It has no life. Only when the past is past can I experience benefit in the present. At every moment remember how I should be acting according to God's direction, because the one who acts according to God’s direction never wastes time and saves the time of others also. Keep attention to give the right type of direction and to act according to directions, then everyone is happy. When we adopt the role of a teacher, we start pointing at others and saying "do this or that". Now renounce talking like that; instead speak through signals. Always maintain the feeling of spirituality and have a lot of respect for God. Each second of the Confluence Age is so valuable. Have the aim that everyone's time should be used in a worthwhile way. Don't use your mind to think "not like this" or "not like that". Keep the mind quiet. Just like those who went into the silence of space and saw the world as a tiny ball, when you go into the depths of silence then everything below is very small. Practice going into silence in this way then when you come into sound you can merge everything in a second. When we experience peace in this way there'll be so much power in the atmosphere that we'll constantly feel God with us. Each one has received the titles of Benefactor and Bestower. These two words should be permanently written on our foreheads. Don't see anyone else, just look at yourself-not superficially because then you'll look at others to see how others are looking at you. Rather go deep into silence and look at the pattern of your thoughts. In really deep silence you won't have thoughts at all. The soul is peaceful, cool and imperishable, but the truth of the soul has disappeared. So go into deep silence. Let the seed of truth come back into the soul and on the basis of that and the experience of being a living soul, become an embodiment of bliss. Go into the depth of the God’s Teachings to become the conqueror of the senses and free from vices. Knowledge has to go deep into the soul, then the soul becomes powerful. By spending time with the self, the power of each relationship with God can be experienced. Whatever is past, finish it now. Experience the taste of deep silence. Service can be renounced, but recognize the importance of experiencing deep silence. The one who remains in God's remembrance will have just one thought, "I have to return home now". We don't need to make plans to reveal God. Our faces will reveal who we are. No one else can have faces like ours because we have purity and our lifestyle is number one. Whoever comes in our company receives benefit. If our face is free from waste thoughts, others seeing us will have faith in themselves. Remain carefree, there is no need to think. Everything is fixed in the drama and you know it already. Therefore always be happy so that anyone coming in front of you can be happy. Those who have received a lot of benefit will create a good atmosphere for the self and for others. They'll understand everything in a second. Dadi's Welcome to NCO's in 'The Court of Indra' "Om Shanti" enables us to become Indraprasth Niwassis. We've renounced everything, including ourselves and have become images of tapasya. God sees such children and says, "These are my world servers". As much as we experience God's drishti we see nothing else. Through our attitude, vibrations and the atmosphere we're able to create an experience of being beyond and then others also desire to have such experiences. God says, 'You've worked hard; now become easy yogis and share love with everyone. With love there will easily be further cooperation.' God's given us many teachings about making our thoughts pure, elevated and powerful. Let my thoughts be filled with a lot of power. Let easy, powerful efforts become natural and automatic. Whatever we want to happen God says, "Do it now". God's hopes and wishes are that we give our finger of cooperation to lift the mountain of Kaliyug, transform the world and bring Satyug-all we have to respond is "yes God." Then God will say, "whatever you wish for has already happened". We've received so much sustenance, study, attainment-what more is there? God says we're the eyes of the world, the ones who are going to bring benefit to the whole world. This is the vision with which we must also see each other. Om-Shanti Dadi Janki, 15th June 2005 evening class for NCO's Self Transformation Transformation is now in everyone's intellect to such an extent that nothing else remains. Change is reversible; transformation is not. Once we start to change, then we develop hope. We can only change when we check ourselves because if someone else tells us what we need to change, we resist it. When we check our own selves then we can change. When people get caught up in complications, they're not asking themselves the question, "Why have I become a BK? Why did I come to God? Did someone tell you to come here? Was it your own intense desire that brought you? No, we were just moving along and God caught hold of us and made us belong to Him. We didn't know that we'd come away from that world and become so simple. There was so much ego, attachment, and greed but then God gave us drishti and separated us from the consciousness of the body. This wasn't just a change. Our life was transformed. What transformation still remains? I have to make my stage unshakable, immovable and constant. That is my honor, my dignity. When we recognized God, we also began to recognize Maya. As soon as I understood God, He gave me a signal to be careful of Maya. We receive God's signals, we have knowledge in the intellect, but Maya makes our intellect belong to her and uses it and then I become a so-called Brahmin, not a true BK. A true BK is one with 100% purity. Even if I have to die, there must be 100% purity. I'm God's child and in my own effort I must be honest with myself, with God and with everyone else. This is the beauty of my life. If I claim full marks in honesty I'll receive so much love and blessings from God. Then wherever I set foot there'll be success; this is the wonder of honesty. If I give total attention to honesty, I will get total grace from God. If I am honest with myself then I will go to God and tell Him whatever is happening with me and He will say, "Child, it's OK." He has so much love; He doesn't want to see His children battling, nor does He want others to see His children battling, so He'll sort it out. This transformation happens very quickly. I am Shiv God's child and so I can become bodiless within a second? It's such a beautiful feeling when I'm sitting with the bodiless, loving One. The heart desires to stay with Him. Then He says, "OK child if you stay with Me, then I will remain your Companion." He becomes my Companion in such a way that He makes the impossible possible. This is not just change; this is transformation. For this transformation first I have to stay with Him, and for this the soul has to become totally detached and separated from everything including one's own sanskars and nature. Name and form and nature all have to go. God calls us with a lot of love to make us bodiless. He says, "While coming into action and interaction become a trustee". Everything has been given for us to look after as a trustee. Every karma is just to be performed as an instrument. Even in thoughts, let there be nothing of I or mine. What influence will the slightest unclean thought have on my feelings? What influence will waste thoughts have on my attitude and voice? What influence will a weak thought have on my drishti? When it comes to transformation, first look at your thoughts. I am creating an entirely new world with the quality of my thoughts. First there is surrender and then there is complete sacrifice. I surrender in order to protect myself from Maya and when I sacrifice myself, then nothing is mine except the One with whom I am sitting. All He has is mine; I have nothing of my own. If I'm only surrendered, Maya could pull me back to herself, but once I sacrifice myself then nothing is mine anymore. If I have the slightest thought that I've given this or that, then I haven't sacrificed myself. Be very careful of Maya. If you ever think of taking something back then Maya becomes the mouse that blows and bites. God is concerned about those who need to live with a lot of comfort. How can such souls be seva dharis? If I do surrender and sacrifice everything then it's all used in a worthwhile way. The slightest thoughts of what is mine must all be sacrificed. "Swa Ha!" You must keep the aim to transform yourself to such an extent. Tests of mind and body will come, but you can't change your mind. Some people change their minds; that leads to lack of faith in the self and in God. If I change my mind it's as if God made me worthy but then I became unworthy of God's faith in me. Let there be total faith in the self no matter what. Then God will have faith in you seeing that this child is not gong to change. Those who want to transform themselves and create an elevated stage never come into extroversion. Their three forms of effort are 1) they have love for solitude and make time for it with the thought of going inside because they've experienced the sweetness of introversion. Such souls have recognized the contrast between extroversion and introversion and their vision goes outward only for what is necessary. 2) They'll spend time in solitude and develop concentration, the basis of which is that 'God has made me belong to Him and is taking me with Him'. 3) They have no desire for the self. One has to do the work of understanding oneself once and for all and arrive at the stage of being ignorant of all desires. Such souls think, "This is the Confluence Age, God is in front of me and this is the chance I have to change the self." And within that thought is the thought never to change the mind. The royalty on my part is that once I've made up my mind, nothing can change it and no one else can change it either. The mind makes itself strong with the help of the intellect and heart and such a mind never becomes influenced or distracted. Such a mind helps take you closer to God and then God gives you the power to bring others close to Him. If you love a particular soul because you feel that one understands and recognizes you; or if you dislike a soul because you feel they don't have love and regard for you-be very careful. God has love for everyone-He's giving love to all. What kind of soul am I to love some and not others? If I do that I won't be able to raise my eyes to God because God can't see me with that vision and I won't be of use to God. He's very detached and loving to everyone so we must have this aim to be detached in a second but loving to everyone. This is what God means when He says that you must be very serene, conscious of being an instrument and having the feeling of humility. Then you're useful to Him and wherever you are, whatever you are, you are His. Then He fills your weaknesses. So if you want to transform yourself, don't keep changing your mind. Let there be love for solitude, introspection and the power of concentration. When everything is clear in the intellect it's easy. Then others, seeing us, will also live their lives clearly.
