MOTIVATIONAL POINTS

                                                    GOOD THOUGHTS

   

    1. THE WHOLE LIFE IS A SUCCESSION OF DREAMS, MY AMBITION IS TO BE A CONSCIOUS DREAMER, THATS ALL.

    2. WE ARE ALLOWED TO WORKSHIP HIM. STAND IN THAT REVERENT ATTITUDE TO THE WHOLE UNIVERSE, AND THEN WILL COME PERFECT NON ATTACHMENT.

   3. YOU CAN NOT BELIEVE IN GOD UNTIL YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

   4. GIVE UP THE IDEA THAT BY RULING OVER OTHERS YOU CAN DO ANY GOOD TO THEM. BUT YOU CAN DO JUST AS MUCH AS YOU CAN IN THE CASE OF THE PLANT. YOU CAN SUPPLY THE GROWING SEED WITH THE MATERIALS FOR THE MAKING UP OF ITS BODY, BRINGING TO IT THE EARTH, THE WATER, THE AIR, THAT IT WANTS. IT WILL TAKE ALL THAT IT WANTS BY ITS OWN NATURE, IT WILL ASSIMILATE AND GROW BY ITS OWN NATURE.

  5. SHRI RAMAKRISHNA USE TO SAY, "AS LONG AS I LIVE, SO LONG DO I LEARN, THAT MAN OR THAT SOCIETY WHICH HAS NOTHING TO LEARN IS ALREADY IN THE JAWS OF DEATH".

  6. BE STRONG! YOU TALK OF GHOSTS AND DEVILS. WE ARE THE LIVING DEVILS. THE SIGN OF LIFE IS STRENGTH AND GROWTH. THE SIGN OF DEATH IS WEAKNESS. WHATEVER IS WEAK, AVOID! IT IS DEATH. IF IT IS STRENGTH, GO DOWN INTO HELL AND GET HOLD OF IT! THERE IS SALVATION ONLY FOR THE BRAVE. NONE BUT THE BRAVE DESERVES THE FAIR." NONE BUT THE BRAVEST DESERVES SALVATION.

 7. WHERE CAN WE GO TO FIND GOD IF WE CANNOT SEE HIM IN OUR OWN HEARTS AND IN EVERY LIVING BEING.

 8. THERE IS NO LIMITS TO THE POWER OF THE HUMAN MIND. THE MORE CONCENTRATED IT IS THE MORE POWER IS BROUGHT TO BEAR ON ONE POINT.

 9. THE CHEERFUL MIND PERSEVERES AND THE STRONG MIND HEWS ITS WAY THROUGH A THOUSAN DIFFICULTIES.

 10. YOU MUST WORKSHIP THE SELF IN KRISHNA NOT KRISHNA  AS KRISHNA.

  11. ALL KNOWLEDGE THAT THE WORLD HAS EVER RECEIVED COMES FROM THE MIND, THE INFINITE LIBERARY OF THE UNIVERSE IS IN OUR OWN MIND.

  12. GIVE A MENTAL ASSENT TO THE CUSTOMS OF THEIR FOREFATHERS.

  13. OH IF ONLY YOU KNEW YOURSELVES! YOU ARE SOULS, YOU ARE GODS. IF EVER I FEEL LIKE BLASPHEMING IT, IS WHEN I CALL YOU MAN.

  14. IF YOU CANNOT ATTAIN SALVATION IN THIS LIFE, WHAT PROOF IS THERE THAT YOU CAN ATTAIN IT IN THE LIFE OR LIVES TO COME?

  15. VIRTUE IS THE ONLY FRIEND WHICH FOLLOWS US EVEN BEYOND THE GRAVE. EVERYTHING ELSE ENDS WITH DEATH.

  16. AS SOON AS I BEGIN TO FEEL THAT I AM SEPARATE FROM THIS UNIVERSE, THEN FIRST COMES FEAR, AND THEN COMES MISERY.

  17. YOGA IS THE SCIENCE WHICH TEACHES US HOW TO GET THESE PERCEPTIONS (DIRECT EXPERIENCES OF GOD)

  18. FOR IT IS THE BODY THAT DRAGS US DOWN. IT IS ATTACHMENT, IDENTIFICATION, WHICH MAKES US MISERABLE. THAT IS THE SECRET. TO THINK THAT I AM THE SPIRIT AND NOT THE BODY, AND THAT THE WHOLE OF THIS UNIVERSE WITH ALL ITS RELATIONS, WITH ALL ITS GOOD AND ALL ITS EVIL, IS BUT A SERIES OF PAINTINGS - SCENES ON A CANVAS- OF WHICH I AM THE WITNESS.

  19. BE CONTENTED WITH THE THINGS OF THE PRESENT. THE COWS AND THE GODS ARE, AND SO ARE ALL ANIMALS, AND THAT IS WHAT MAKES THEM ANIMALS. SO IF MAN RESTS CONTENT WITH THE PRESENT AND GIVES UP ALL SEARCH INTO THE BEYOND, MANKING WILL HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE ANIMALS PLANE AGAIN.

  20. OUR KARMA DETERMINES WHAT WE DESERVE AND WE CAN ASSIMILATE. 

THE END OF YOUR DRAMA

                                                               YOUR  DRAMA

  

       IN THAT STATE OF ACCEPTANCE AND INNER PEACE, THOUGH YOU MAY NOT CALL IT BAD, CAN ANYTHING STILL COME INTO YOUR LIFE THAT WOULD BE CALLED " BAD " FROM A PERSPECTIVE OF ORDINARY CONCIOUSNESS?

    MOST OF THE SO-CALLED BAD THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN PEOPLE'S LIVES ARE DUE TO UNCONCIOUSNESS. THEY ARE SELF-CREATED, OR RATHER EGO-CREATED. I SOMETIMES REFER TO THOSE THINGS AS "DRAMA". WHEN YOU ARE FULLY CONSIOUS, DRAMA DOES NOT COME INTO YOUR LIFE ANYMORE. LET ME REMIND YOU BRIEFLY HOW THE EGO OPERATES AND HOW IT CREATES DRAMA. 

    EGO IS THE UNOBSERVED MIND THAT RUNS YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU ARE NOT PRESENT AS THE WITNESSING CONSCIOUSNESS, THE WATCHER. THE EGO PERCEIVES ITSELF AS A SEPARATE FRAGMENT IN A HOSTILE UNIVERSE, WITH NO REAL INNER CONNECTION TO ANY OTHER BEING, SURROUNDED BY OTHER EGOS WHICH IT EITHER SEES AS A POTENTIAL THREAT OR WHICH IT WILL ATTEMPT TO USE FOR ITS OWN ENDS. THE BASIC EGO PATTERNS ARE DEGIGNED TO COMBAT ITS OWNDEEPSEATED FEAR SENSE OF LACK. THEY ARE RESISTENCE, CONTROL, POWER, GREED, DEFENSE, ATTACK. SOME OF THE EGO'S STRAEGIES ARE EXTREMLY CLEVER, YET THEY NEVER TRULY SOLVE OF ITS PROBLEMS, SIMPLY BECAUSE THE EGO ITSELF IS THE PROBLEM.

       WHEN EGOS COMES TOGETHER, WHETHER IN PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS OF ICREN ORGANIZATIONS OF INSTITUTIONS, "BAD" THINGS HAPPEN SOONER OF LATER, DRAMA OF ONE KIND OR ANOTHER, IN THE FORM OF CONFLICT, PROBLEMS, POWER, STRUGGLES, EMOTIONAL OR PHYSICAL VIOLENCE, AND SO ON. THIS INCLUDED COLLECTIVE EVILS SUCH AS WAR, GENOCIDE, AND EXPLOTATION-ALL DUE TO MASSED UNCONSIOUS RESISTENCE, WHICH CREATES RESTRICTIONS AND BLOCKAGES IN THE FLOW OF ENERGY THROUGH THE BODY. WHEN YOU RECONNECT WITH BEING AND ARE NO LONGER RUN BY YOUR MIND, YOU CEASE TO CREATE THOSE THINGS. YOU DO NOT CREATE OR PARTICIPATE IN DRAMA ANYMORE.

       WHEN YOU LIVE IN COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE OF WHAT IS, THAT IS THE END OF ALL DRAMA IN YOUR LIFE. NOBODY CAN EVEN HAVE AN ARGUMENT WITH YOU. NO MATTER HOW HARD HE OR SHE TRIES. YOU CANNOT HAVE AN ARGUMENT WITH A FULLY CONSCIOUS PERSON. AN ARGUMENT IMPLIES IDENTIFICATION WITH YOUR MIND AND A MENTAL POSITION, AS WELL AS RESISTENCE AND REACTION TO OTHER PERSON'S POSITION. THE RESULT IS THAT THE POLAR OPPOSITE BECOME MUTUALLY ENERGIZED. THESE ARE THE MACHANICS OF UNCONSCIOUSNESS. YOU CAN STILL MAKE YOUR POIN CLEARLY AND FIRMLY, BUT THERE WILL BE NO REATIVE FORCE BEHIND IT, NO DEFENSE OR ATTACK. SO IT WON'T TURN INTO DRAMA. WHEN YOU ARE FULLY CONSCIOUS, YOU CEASE TO BE IN CONFLICT. NO ONE WHO IS AT ONE WITH HIMSELF CAN EVEN CONCEIVE TO CONFLICT, STATE A COURSE IN MIRACLES. THIS REFERS NOT ONLY TO CONFLICT WITH OTHER PEOPLE BUT MORE FUNDAMENTALLY TO CONFLICT WITHIN YOU, WHICH CEASE WHEN THERE IS NO LONGER ANY CLASH BETWEEN THE DEMANDS AND EXPECTATIONS OF YOUR MIND AND WHAT IS.

 

THE POINTS TO BECOME WINNER

                                                   SUCCESS OF THE LIFE

    1. WHERE NONE SEES ANOTHER, WHERE IT IS ALL ONE, THERE IS NONE TO BE MESERABLE, NONE TO BE UNHAPPY.

   2. KNOWING THAT MOTHER AND FATHER ARE THE VISIBLE REPRESENTATIVES OF GOD, THE HOUSEHOLDER, ALWAYS AND BY ALL MEANS, MUST PEOPLE THEM. IF THE MOTHER IS PLEASED, AND THE FATHER, GOD IS PLEASED WITH THE MAN. THAT CHILD IS REALLY A GOOD CHILD WHO NEVER SPEAKS HARSH WORDS TO HIS PARENTS.

  3. THE ONLY WAY TO RISE BY DOING THE DUTY NEXT TO US, AND THUS GATHERING STRENGTH TO ON UNTIL WE REACH THE HIGHEST STATE.

 4. THOUGH THIS BODY HAS ITS BEGINNING AND END, THE DWELLER IN THE BODY IS INFINITE AND WITHOUT END.

 5. EVEN IF YOU HAVE KNOWLEDGE, DO NOT DISTURB THE CHILDLIKE FAITH OF THE IGNORANT. ON THE OTHER HAND, GO DOWN TO THEIR LEVEL AND GRADUALLY BRING THEM UP. THAT IS A VERY POWERFUL IDEA, AND IT HAS BECOME THE IDEAL IN INDIA. THIS IS WHY YOU CAN SEE GREAT PHILOSOPHER GOING INTO A TEMPLE AND WORSHIPPING IMAGES. IT IS NOT HYPOCRISY.

 6. THEN THE GODS BECOME NO GODS, DEATH BECOMES NO DEATH, LIFE BECOMES NO LIFE.

 7. WHO CAN WORK WITHOUT ANY ATTACHMENT? THIS IS REAL QUESTION.

 8. SUCH A MAN IS THE SAME WHETHER HIS WORK SUCCEEDS OF FAILS.

 9. WORK FOR WORK'S SAKE. WORSHIP FOR WORSHIP'S SAKE. DO GOOD BECAUSE IT IS GOOD TO DO GOOD. ASK NO MORE.

 10. YOU CANNOT BELIEVE IN GOD UNTIL YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

 11. STRENGTH IS LIFE, WEAKNESS IS DEATH.

 12. NEITHER SEEK NOR AVOID, TAKE WHAT COMES.

 13. ALL WEAKNESS, ALL BONDAGE IS IMAGINATION.

 14. KNOWING THIS, STAND UP AND FIGHT.

 15. NOR FREEDO,. NOR GODS, NOR WORK, NOR ANYTHING.

 16. THIS IS THE SAGE WHO ALWAYS WORKS FOR WORK'S SAKE WITHOUT CARING FOR THE RESULTS.

 17. THE POWERS OF THE MIND ARE LIKE RAYS OF LIGHT DISSIPATED , WHEN THEY ARE CONCENTRATED, THEY ILLUMINE.

 18. HE WHO KNOWS THAT HE IS FREE IS FREE, HE WHO KNOWS THAT HE IS BOUND IS BOUND. WHAT IS THE END AND AIM OF LIFE? NONE, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT I AM THE INFINITE.

 19. WHEN BY ANALYZING HIS OWN MIND, MAN COMES FACE TO FACE, AS IT WERE, WITH SOMETHING WHICH IS, BY ITS OWN NATURE, ETERNALLY PURE AND PERFECT, HE WILL NO MORE BE MISERABLE, NO MORE UNHAPPY.

 20. STAND UP, BE BOLD, BE STRONG! KNOW THAT YOU ARE THE CREATOR OF YOUR OWN DESTINY. ALL THE STRENGTH AND SUCCOUR YOU WANT IS WITHIN YOURSELF.

 21. THE ROSE CALLED BY ANY OTHER NAME WOULD SMELL AS SWEET.

 22. REALISATION IS REAL RELIGION, ALL THE REST IS ONLY PREPARATION-HEARING LECTURES, OR READING BOOKS, OR REASONING IS MERELY PREPARING THE GROUND, IT IS NOT RELIGION.

 23. THE EASIEST WAY TO MAKE OURSELVES HAPPY IS TO SEE THAT OTHERS ARE HAPPY.

 24. WE ARE NOT THE VEDANTISTS, PAURANICS, OR TANTRICS. WE ARE THE DON'T TOUCHISTS OUR RELIGION IS DON'T TOUCH ME, I AM HOLY.

 25. TAKE UP ANYTHING THAT YOU SEE OR FEEL, A BOOK FOR INSTANCE, FIRST CONCENTRATE THE MIND ON IT, THEN ON THE KNOWLEDGE THAT IS IN THE FORM OF A BOOK, AND THEN ON THE EGO THAT SEES THE BOOK, AND SO ON. BY THAT PRACTICE ALL THE ORGANS WILL BE CONQUERED.

BEEING KNOW ABOUT YOURSELF

                                                     KNOW ABOUT YOURS

     YOU SPOKE EARLIER ABOUT THE IMPORTANT OF HAVING DEEP ROOTS WITHIN OR INHABITING THE BODY. CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT YOU MEANT BY THAT?

     THE BODY CAN BECOME A POINT OF ACCESS INTO THE REALM OF BEING. LET'S GO INTO THAT MORE DEEPLY NOW.

     I AM STILL NOT QUITE SURE IF I FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEANT BY BEING.

     WATER? WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT? I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT. THIS IS WHAT A FISH WOULD SAY IF IT HAD A HUMAN MIND.

     PLEASE STOP TRYING TO UNDERSTAND BEING. YOU HAVE ALREADY HAD SIGNIFICANT GLIMPSES OF BEING, BUT THE MIND WILL ALWAYS TRY TO SQUEEZE IT INTO A LITTLE BOX AND THEN PUT A LABEL ON IT. IT CANNOT BE DONE IT. IT CANNOT BECOME AN OBJECT OF KNOWLEDGE. IN BEING, SUBJECT AND OBJECT MERGE INTO ONE.

     BEING CAN BEFELT AS THE EVER-PRESENT I AM THAT IS BEYOND NAME AND FORM. TO FEEL AND THUS TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE AND TO ABIDE IN THAT DEEPLY ROOTED STATE IS ENLIGHTENMENT, IS THE TRUTH THAT JESUS SAYS WILL MAKE YOU FREE.

    FREE FROM WHAT?

       FREE FROM THE ILLUSION THAT YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN YOUR PHYSICAL BODY AND YOUR MIND. THIS "ILLUSION OF THE SELF" AS THE BUDDHA CALLS IT, IS THE CORE ERROR. FREE FROM FEAR IN ITS COUNTLESS DSGUISES AS THE INEVITABLE CONSEQUENCE OF THAT ILLUSION-THE FEAR THAT IS YOUR CONSTANT TORMENTOR AS LONG AS YOU DERIVE YOUR SENSE OF SELF ONLY FROM THIS EPHEMERAL AND VULNERABLE FORM. AND FREE FROM SIN, WHICH IS THE SUFFERING YOU UNCONSCIOUSLY INFLICT ON YOURSELF AND OTHERS AS LONG AS THIS ILLUSORY SENSE OF SELF GOVERNS WHAT YOU THINK, SAY, AND DO.

DON'T SEEK YOURSELF IN THE MIND

                                                THE SECRETS OF NOW

       I FEEL THAT THERE IS STILL A GREAT DEAL I NEED TO LEARN ABOUT THE WORKINGS OF MY MIND BEFORE I CAN GET ANYTWHERE NEAR FULL CONSCIOUSNESS OR SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT.

      NO, YOU DON'T. THE PROBLEMS OF THE MIND CANNOT BE SOLVED ON THE LEVEL OF THE MIND. ONCE YOU HAVE UNDERSTOOD THE BASIC DYSFUNCTION, THERE ISN'T REALLY MUCH ELSE THAT YOU NEED TO LEARN OR UNDERSTAND. STUDYING THE COMPLEXITIES OF THE MIND MAKE YOU A GOOD PSYCHOLOGIST, BUT DOING SO WON'T TAKE YOU BEYOND THE MIND, JUST AS THE STUDY OF MADNESS ISN'T ENOUGH TO CREATE SANITY. YOU HAVE ALREADY UNDERSTOOD THE BASIC MECHANICS OF THE UNCONSCIOUS STATE; IDENTIFICATION WITH THE MIND, WHICH CREATES A FALSE SELF, THE EGO, AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR YOUR TRUE SELF ROOTED IN BEING. YOU BECOME AS A "BRANCH CUT OFF FROM THE VINE" AS JESUS PUTS IT.

       THE EGO'S NEEDS ARE ENDLESS. IT FEELS VULNERABLE AND THREATEND AND SO LIVES IN A STATE OF FEAR AND WANT. ONCE YOU KNOW HOW THE BASIC DYSFUNCTION, OPERATES, THERE IS NO NEED TO EXPLORE ALL ITS COUNTLESS MANIFESTATIONS, NO NEED TO MAKE IT INTO A COMPLEX PERSONAL PROBLEM. THE EGO, OF COURSE, LOVES THAT. IT IS ALWAYS SEEKING FOR SOMETHING TO ATTACH ITSELF TO IN ORDER TO UPHOLD AND STREGTHEN ITS ILLUSORY SENSE OF SELF, AND IT WILL READILY ATTACH ITSELF TO YOUR PROBLEMS. THIS IS WHY, FOR SO MANY PEOPLE, A LARGE PART OF THEIR SENSE OF SELF IS INTIMATELY CONNECTED WITH THEIR PROBLEMS. ONCE THIS HAS HAPPENED, THE LAST THING THEY WANT IS TO BECOME FREE OF THEM, THAT WOULD MEAN LOSS OF SELF. THERE CAN BE A GREAT DEAL OF UNCONSCIOUS EGO INVESTMENT IN PAIN AND SUFFERING.

     SO ONCE YOU RECOGNIZE THE ROOT OF UNCONSCIOUSNESS AS IDENTIFICATION WITH THE MIND, WHICH OF COURSE INCLUDES THE EMOTIONS, YOU STEP OUT OF IT. YOU BECOME PRESENT . WHEN YOU ARE PRESENT, YOU CAN ALLOW THE MIND TO BE AS IT IS WITHOUT GETTING ENTANGLED IN IT. THE MIND IN ITSELF IS NOT DYSFUNCTIONAL. IT IS A WONDERFUL TOOL. DYSFUNCTION SETS IN WHEN YOU SEEK YOUR SELF IN IT AND MISTAKE IT FOR WHO YOU ARE. IT THEN BECOME THE EGOIC MIND AND TAKES OVER YOUR WHOLE LIFE.

LIFE MEANINGS

                            POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE THINGS IN YOUR LIFE

   "LOVE IS AN ELEMENT WHICH THOUGH PHYSICALLY UNSEEN

     IS AS REAL AS AIR OR WATER. IT IS AN ACTING, LIVING,

    MOVING FORCE... IT MOVES IN WAVES AND CURRENTS

    LIKE THOSE OF THE OCEAN"

     

     THE KIND OF LOVE THAT THE GREATEST THINKERS AND SAVIORS OF THE WORLD TALKED ABOUT IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT MOST PEOPLE UNDERSTAND LOVE TO BE. IT IS MUCH MORE THAN LOVING YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND FAVORITE THINGS, BECAUSE LOVE IS NOT JUST A FEELING, LOVE IS THE POSITIVE AND GOOD. THERE ARE NOT A HUNDRED DIFFERENT POSITIVE FORCES IN LIFE, THERE IS ONLY ONE.

   NATURE'S GREAT POWERS, LIKE GRAVITY AND ELECTROMAGNETISM, ARE INVISIBLE TO OUR SENSES, BUT THEIR POWER IS INDISPUTABLE. LIKEWISE, THE FORCE OF LOVE IS INSIBLE TO US, BUT ITS POWER IS IN FACT FAR GREATER THAN ANY OF NATURE'S POWERS. THE EVIDENCE OF ITS THERE IS NO LIFE.

    TAKE A MOMENT TO THINK ABOUT IT. WHAT WOULD THE WORLD BE WITHOUT LOVE? FIRST OF ALL, YOU WOULDN'T EVEN EXIST, WITHOUT LOVE YOU COULDN'T HAVE BEEN BORN. NONE OF YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS WOULD HAVE BEEN BORN EITHER. IN FACT, THERE WOULDN'T BE A SINGLE HUMAN BEING ON THE PLANET. IF THE FORC OF LOVE CEASED TODAY, THE ENTIRE HUMAN RACE WOULD DECREASE AND EVENTUALLY DIE OUT.

      EVERY SINGLE INVENTION, DISCOVERY AND HUMAN CREATION CAME FROM THE LOVE IN A HUMAN HEART. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE LOVE OF THE WRIGHT BROTHERS, WE COULD NOT FLY IN AN AIRPLANE. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE LOVE OF SCIENTISTS, INVENTORS, AND DISCOVERERS, WE WOULD NOT HAVE ELECTRICITY, HEARTING OR LIGHT, NOR WOULD WE BE ABLE TO DRIVE A CAR OR USE A PHONE, APPLIANCE, OR ANY OF THE TECHNOLOGY THAT MAKES LIFE EASIER AND MORE CORFORTABLE. WITHOUT THE LOVE OF ARCHITECTS AND BUILDERS, THERE WOULD BE NO HOMES, BUILDING OR CITIES. WITHOUT LOVE, THERE WOULD BE NO MEDICINES, DOTORS, OR EMERGENCY FACILITIES, NO TEACHERS, SCHOOLS, OR EDUCATION. THERE WOULD BE NO BOOKS, NO PAINTINGS AND NO MUSIC, BECAUSE ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE CREATED FROM THE POSITIVE FORCE OF LOVE. TAKE A LOOK AROUND YOU RIGHT NOW. WHATEVER YOU SEE THAT IS A HUMAN CREATION WOULD NOT BE THERE WITHOUT LOVE.
