Guest guest Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 Determination, enthusiasm and sweetness Determination, enthusiasm and sweetness; we need all three qualities. To have determination and enthusiasm but not sweetness is wrong. Some have enthusiasm and rush around; however they then become impatient when something does not happen as they want, or it doesn't happen quickly. Thoughts are rushed, walking is rushed, interactions are rushed. You look at each other in a rush, you greet, you eat, all in a rush. You walk into the office quickly, say 'Hello' quickly and walk out again quickly. What kind of life is that? Slow down. Be peaceful. Being peaceful does not mean being inefficient or ineffective. Sit and eat peacefully with love. Interact with others with love. When we stay in silence what do we do? Spend time in silence in such a way that you are able to experience the sweetness of silence. We give ourselves special time to stay in silence. Make a special time to stay in silence. If there is zeal and enthusiasm, there will be sweetness. How is it possible to enjoy life without becoming sweet? Everyone enjoys sweet food and drinks. In fact, drinks and food are not just sweet, they have flavour. The flavour is what everyone enjoys. Nowadays manufacturers supply the ingredients on the bottle when they sell the drink so that everyone can see what is inside. Sweets are prepared with care and people just eat a little. We don't just offer people a drink but something to eat as well. Now check your character and your drishti (vision) and see what you are offering to those who come in front of you People are thirsty for love. They are hungry for peace. Our drishti should be so sweet that we give them what they need. Even in some Brahmins there is lack of tolerance, patience, contentment. This is due to a lack of vitamins. What will supply us with those vitamins? Take vitamin A, B and C; A for Alpha - B for beta and C, I am God's child. D is drama - that which that keeps me stable. E is for-ever. God, I will never forget you. Secondly, I am 'ever' good - not sometimes one thing and sometimes another; my stage is stable. I am ready for anything. F is for flying - always fly. Throughout time, body consciousness drained our energy. Now Dadi has one request to you; stay in soul consciousness, remain lost in God's love and remain as God's child. Remain as God's child and your hunger for love will finish. Remain in the awareness of being God's child and He will be able to reach you with His love. Experiment with this and see how much energy you accumulate. You will then have the energy to breathe easily. Wonder what is going to happen and you will not breathe easily. Over many births we became subservient on others and things outside. To finish this subservience, now stay stable in the original religion of the self and see how God emerges in front. When God emerges in front you will breathe easily. Breathe easily but sit with alertness in remembrance. Don't look here and there. Stabilise yourself and concentrate. You will then receive a lot of energy. You will also then remain carefree. Your heaviness will evaporate. Don't think that the path is very long or you will develop doubts and you will get scared. What is the condition of one who has doubts? They become bitter because they don't understand clearly. They say; you say this but I don't understand. This lack of understanding makes them bitter. So we have to look at peoples' faces and see how much they can understand. The one who is explaining needs to have a lot of dharna. They also need to pay great attention to remembrance. Now is the time to finish everything; no trace of karmic account should remain that can emerge and pull the soul. It is important to give time to do this. Make this type of effort for 40 hours. Eat, rest but give 40 hours attention to finish all that's old and see what the result is. Check to see; are my sins being finished through remembrance and to what extent? Now experiment with this; what is that type of remembrance that I need to have to finish my accounts? It is the fire of love that will do this. Remembrance is internal - everything else we do is physical. So now check this for yourself. The sign of one whose sins are being incinerated is that they will never have an impure thought. In fact, this is the work that remains for us. The fire of love needs to incinerate the sins of the past. And secondly, whatever remains to be done, do it now. If we do this work now, we will be able to give God the date that He sometimes asks us for. In fact, we will create that date; it will happen automatically when we make these efforts. In fact, it is God who is allowing all this work to happen as it is now, and so for Him there is a lot of love. I should be ready for whatever task God has for me. Don't look at anyone else; keep your eyes on God. To give thoughts to what anyone else is doing is not necessary. In what way would I like God to look at me - keep this in your mind and do everything accordingly.
