Guest guest Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 Tranformation through Realisation – Words of Wisdom If I want to really transform myself, I need to realise my own mistakes. What lies at the roots of my sanskars that is not allowing me to change? There's no need to be concerned whether others change or not. According to drama and time, it will happen for them. Don't get caught up in that. My task is just to constantly send good wishes. God gives us immense love but still says that He does not forgive us for our mistakes. Unless I realise my mistakes, I cannot receive forgiveness. Now open yourself up and look inside. When there is honest repentance over one's mistakes, God shows mercy and says, "Child, forget the past". He then gives advice that helps us transform in such a way that we become examples for others. Be sensible and cautious. Enough time has been wasted; isn't it now high time for change? We need not try to prove that something is not our mistake but this is a phenomenon seen commonly today. It is easy to talk about other's mistakes. Many do not hold back when it comes to making the mistakes of others known to all. God calls us the stars of hope, the stars of success; now check, can I present myself to God as a star of success or am I still a star of hope? In fact, transformation only takes place with the power of realization. When there is accuracy in following God's teachings, one receives blessings from everyone 's heart. Let me decorate myself with God's teachings so that my face and activity reveal those teachings. God gives us teachings and directions in order to create our fortune; He has nurtured and sustained us, given us His elevated company etc. However, if your sanskars are weak you will come under the influence of the nature of others. When this happens you will not be able to stay in soul-consciousness. As God's child, I need enough power to not only change myself but to be able to influence others in a positive way. God's children are hidden away in every part of the world. Wherever we go, a child emerges. It is God's task to take us to the place where His children are. What I need to do is remain introverted and simply act as the instrument. To be extroverted means to keep one's vision towards external matters. In such a stage, one cannot have true realization. Let there be nothing unwanted or unnecessary in my mind and memory track. This type of cleanliness brings me closer to God since nothing else but God remains in the heart. When there are pure and honest feelings, one's thoughts and actions will be righteous. I can develop merciful feelings when I am free from desires and free from waste thoughts. Keep the one aim of becoming perfect and complete. Only when the soul-conscious stage is practiced can one reach the bodiless stage. For half a cycle, arrogance of the body has been deeply etched in the soul and so just remembering God is not sufficient; our yoga (Remembrance of God) needs to be so powerful that it destroys all our sins. Not a single vicious sanskar should remain. We have created our fortune by renouncing the old world, but we now have to renounce old sanskars. Not only renounce them, but destroy them; no ashes should remain. No matter how much a person is loved, once the soul leaves the body, the corpse is immediately cremated and the ashes merged in the Ganges. The ashes of body-consciousness too should not remain. If they remain evil spirits can return. God has kept us in His eyes, His drishti (Vision) has blessed us and so Maya's (Negativities)vision should not fall on us. Maya finds ways to distance you from God, so that you are unable to stay in yoga or read the God’s words etc. God's true children would never miss Amrit Vela (Early Morning Yoga) as the foundation of this life is the sakaash (Blessing) we receive from God at Amrit Vela.
