God is above us Société d'Encouragement pour l'Industrie Nationale, Paris (France)

Public Program 3, Paris (France), 18 June 1983. To all the seekers of joy, I bow. I already told you that joy has no duality. It does not have happiness and unhappiness. It should never be confused with pleasures. Because the pleasure that looks today the pleasure, tomorrow will turn into remorse. But the joy is absolute and eternal. It does not change. Only thing that, how far we have been able to allow the Spirit to shine in our attention, and how far we have been able to get rid of our misidentification is the important point. Today, I gave an analogy of the Sun to the Spirit. The sun is shining by itself, it doesn’t need enlightenment, by itself it is there. But to get the sunshine in the atmosphere we have to remove the clouds, because the clouds are superimposing upon the sun. The clouds that are superimposing cannot engulf the Sun, because Sun is detached from them. Only the clouds can make the atmosphere dark. In the same way, when we have superimpositions of our ignorance upon the Spirit, then there is darkness in our life and we are in confusion. As I told you the first day, whatever we achieve through our mental projections can create those clouds. Also, our conditionings can create these clouds. For example, say we are born in France. So, we think we are French. Then anybody who is not French is not good. Same with Indians: if they are born Read More …

Two Energies within us Société d'Encouragement pour l'Industrie Nationale, Paris (France)

Public Program Day 2 I bow to all the seekers of Reality. At the very outset I have to very humbly apologize for getting late, because of the traffic was very funny today. I hope you understand. [UNCLEAR] to reach at the point where one has to reach perhaps. Yesterday speech I tried to explain to you how we live with our mental projections only. And when we try to go beyond that, we get involved where we are not actually beyond our mind, but our mind gets overshadowed. As I told you yesterday today I will be telling you about the other unknown energies that are within us. Yesterday I told you about the energy of pure desire, which is the Kundalini, which is resting in the triangular bone, called as sacrum. And today I’ve met a newspaper gentleman from [MELOS] and he told Me that during twelfth century people used to give awakening by [CLEANSING, PIERCING] this sacrum bone, among Christians. This bone is called as sacrum means sacred. And when I went to Greece I asked the Greeks: “Why do you call it the sacrum bone, sacred bone?” They said that they had a report with India, thousands of years, back where they discovered that this bone is a sacrum bone, having the power by which we get our Self Realization. They knew a lot about the Primordial Mother, the Primordial Power, the Holy Ghost. Even the word “ascent” comes from the word “atha”, in Sanskrit it Read More …

Joy has no duality Société d'Encouragement pour l'Industrie Nationale, Paris (France)

Public Program, Paris (France), 16 June 1983. I bow to all the seekers of truth. Since ancient times man has been searching the truth. He tried to search the truth in various forms of happiness and he discarded many-a-times because he found that happiness was not permanent. For a short time he felt happy with something and then he found it also gave him great unhappiness. Like a lady, she had no child so she used to weep and cry; and she had a child who later on disowned her. Then human beings started seeking happiness by enjoying the power, the power over other men, the power over other countries, that also they were not very much satisfied. Their children started feeling guilty about what their forefathers did. Then the movement started seeking something subtler – was in the art and music. That also had limitations. It could not give that permanent joy to people. It is promised that one day you all have to have this permanent joy. And then they started challenging all such people who had prophesized and who have been promising that such a day will come. So many reached the conclusion that there is nothing like joy, the life is all the time two sides of the waves. Like two faces of a coin, they thought happiness is always combined with unhappiness, like day and night. Despite all these conclusions human beings did not give up their search. They were seeking still, they indulged into Read More …
