Dr Hislops talk in Los-Angeles & Story of Angels

[Guest guest]

(Angele's Story) Dr Hislop and his story of Angele's)

------------------

 

 

Let me start with one story, which Dr Hislop told us some years back while I

attended his lecture in Los Angeles .

 

He is no more with us to day but he was closes devotee of Swami and once we

invited him in Tokyo convention,as well as in Kobe. I am sure many of you have

seen him and admire him.

 

Story of Dr Hislop which Iam sharing with you.

 

In recent New Zealand conference, which started in very hilly mountain city of

Wellington, there were many many children and seeing so many children Dr Hislop

told them story of angels and when the program was over, many children and

adults came to him told him, that they saw angels on the stage and there was

Swami too.

 

Before Swami started his world mission, When Swami was very young man. He would

stay with his hostess in Madras. There was man Bob Rayer who presented an old

second station wagon to Swami and in this Swami will make trip to Bangalore and

Madras.

 

But in those days Swami will drive his own car , He will drive by himself to

Madras . The devotees will hear that Swami is going to Madras . What they do ?

They will line up or find the post of observation along the route-way, because

Swami will come in his car in a very good speed. He Will be sitting behind the

wheel like this , and the car was buzzing along, and even more than the people

told, the car was that far, above the ground and many people have told Hislop

about this and believes that these experiences are actual.

 

Anyway one time Swami went like this to Madras and went up to the door of

Hostess . The Hostess came to the door and saw Swami, and said Swami Swami I am

very happy to see you, but Swami you did not tell me that you are coming and I

have not got the things ready.

 

In India ,when the Lord visit the house , the house Lady feels that she must

have flowers, fruits and proper offerings to the distinguish visitors. But she

did not have any of these things so she felt quite badly.

 

But Swami said do not worry , then Swami turned to the car and back like that,

and out of the car stepped two angels with wings and they were carrying a great

big silver trays, completely loaded with all the things which the hostess needed

to properly welcome Swami.

 

The angels handed the tray to the hostesses and then Swami made a motion like

that and the Angeles went back to the car and disappeared. Now this story came

to light some years later, when somebody has given Swami a bus and Swami

started to take the students, wherever Swami went and one day Swami took the

student in a bus and they went to the house of same hostesses first, because

the students would stay in some other place, so let Swami get first.

 

When the Hostesses saw the student , she went back to the room And brought out

the big silver try , the very same silver try the angles had given to her and

she told the students and that is how the rest of us came to know the story of

Angeles. I am sure all of you will enjoy the story , if you share with your

loved ones.

 

Now all of us are here in this room , and around us in this Neighborhood are

hundred & thousand of very good people, very good ladies, very good men and

they are not here and so why we are here. What is it that brings those of us

here. People in general under value them selves and let us point out to you ,

that how really great you are.

 

You know Swami says that, if you choose a regular worldly person and he is ready

to sit down and listen to you and you explain to him very carefully , the

practices of spiritual life , but that person may not understand ,even one word

to what you are saying. So, Swami said that those who come to HIM { only those

whom he has called } No body comes to see Swami, unless Swami has called that

person to Him.

 

Dr Hislop asked Swami why are those people called and Swami said that in the

distant past they have engaged in very good deeds & spiritual practices and

there by they have established a saving account and when I call them to me,

then they draw on that saving account of their merits and come here to see me.

 

So there are some persons ,sitting in this room, who despite their present

situation in life, who have a very significant life in the past, and every one

of you in the past ages has been a yogi, again and again, or spiritual aspirant

or devotee of great people. So you are not ordinary people and it is a mistake

for you to say that I am just ordinary person, and I really can not understand

and I really do not know, how to put into practices what Swami is saying.

 

It is false statement framed up by the mind. Now let us see what all of us want

? I, believe for talking so many people over the years, all of us wants to

experience in his own life, that which Swami is constantly experiencing .

 

Baba says I am always in bliss, you cannot know how happy I am ? I don’t know

what worry and troubles means , they have no meaning to me at all. So we think

of that state as self realization or liberation. We know that there is state of

being which is full of joyful and happy and we are all aiming to achieving that

state of happiness.

 

So the question arise , how do we that ? How in our daily life, we can do the

things , that are necessary to open our mind, open our hearts to reach the goal

of our life. Which is the self realization or liberation or returning to the

source.

 

Now because of many books, that are printed, many things that are said, there

are so many ideas flowing around and so much Conversation, some times it is

hard to know what we should be doing.

 

We sincerely want liberation, that is what we want?? Then should we not be

thinking of that carrier or the person whom, we love, and there is intensity

there. So Hislop asked Swami, why is Swami that all your devotees read your

books and meet together and what is the principle things, which prevents your

devotees from achieving the goal of life, which is liberation

 

Swami says the principle reason is lack of intensity. We are not giving our

hearts and minds, every moment of the day to that goal , to achieving that

purpose and that is the principle reason. Some times back Swami mentioned that

his American devotees, are very good people , they do good seva and they sing

beautiful bhajans but they do not know anything about spiritual life, so is the

spiritual life is that difficult ??

 

So fast way Swami says is to always keep GOD in the mind. How could that be true

.. It is true for this reasons that the only reality is GOD. Everything else is

false produce Swami gave example: For example the current is making the fan to

rotate. The current is God, so you are only the instruments. Even the fact that

we think that our eyes sees things, that is not correct, my eyes are hear, but

the mind is in Bangalore thinking of this or that. My eyes are seeing, but my

mind is somewhere else.

 

Mind is important. Body is like a torch, eye is like the bulb, mind is the

battery cell, intelligence is the switch, only when the four work together do

you get the light. Body is only like a torch. So Swami explain the more

intensity, the greater result.

 

Even that God gives for our own good, when you don’t have the hunger, why should

He give you food? So Swami said when when you have the hunger and receive the

food it is useful, but if you don’t have hunger and He gives the food, you will

have indigestion.

 

Even a spiritual experience, sometimes God withhold it, because God does

everything for man’s good. He never does anything to harm or give him sorrow

But faith you must have. First you must grapple with fact that duty is God and

start doing your duty. (Dr Hislops talk in Los-angeles in 1992)

 

Swami declare that I am in every one, in every being. So do not hate any one, or

cavil at any one. Spread Prema always, everywhere. That is the best way of

revering Me. Do not seek to measure Me. Or evaluate Me. I am beyond

understanding. Pray or worship for your own satisfaction and contentment.….

BABA…..
