Webcast with Russia
Jan 23, 2011
We are gathering here in Moscow and many
cities of the Ex-Soviet Union, and we'll
be seeing you Bhagavan all of us through
internet live broadcast. And during this
skype, you'll be seeing different cities
also. The picture will be changing and
you'll be seeing different groups in
different cities.
Bhagavan:
How beautiful.
Q1: Namaste dear Bhagavan. Long live
Bhagavan. You're bringing in the light
and we are screwing up our eyes. Please
forgive us for that. I was pondering
over a lot about what hinders me from
taking in all you are giving me so
generously. Why the passion for
awakening and the fear of awakening are
equally great in me. Coming to the
Golden City to you I come into my high
dream, not really believing it is
feasible in this lifetime now and here.
For if I'm not here as I am today than
my social status house, family, work etc
will not be there either. We have
externally what we have internally. The
mind describes the lives of the great
teachers, saints, monks. There are no
examples of the awakened ones of today
around the world. How they are
integrated into society and everyday
life. Dear Sri Bhagavan, please tell us
what the lives of the awakened ones are
like today? How did they use the gift of
awakening. Or how did the gift of
awakening use them. What is the purpose
of life of the awakened one. In terms of
his pursuits in society. Please help to
overcome the fear. It is very important.
My heartfelt gratitude.
A1:
The problem is you have an idea of
awakening and that is putting fear into
you. The actual thing is very different
from what you imagine it to be. When we
talk of awakening, we are talking about
your natural state. And once you are
there you are quite shocked to realize
how you have missed this all these
years. It is like a man who wants to
learn swimming but is not ready to jump
into the waters. You cannot learn
swimming and then jump into the waters.
You first have to jump and then you
naturally learn swimming. It's the
same thing. Once the process of
awakening starts everything is very
natural without you having to do
anything. Anyway, you won't have to
worry because the new process will soon
help you to become awakened quite
easily. And there are already a number
of awakened people who happen to be
doctors, engineers, and ?? who are
living a very beautiful life. Very soon
you will have a number of people who are
awakened in Russia too and you are going
to make it quite fast.
Q2: My dear Bhagavan, we are so happy
to see you live. I would also like to
express my gratitude to Kirnaji for
supporting me and my group. Bhaghavan,
Many truths of our perceptions of
reality have been unveiled to me, but
one state is still a mystery. That is
service, seva. I know the words which
describe this state, but it's not alive
in my heart. Only in my mind and in my
actions. I desire so much to have my
heart experience this state fully.
Please share with us what you
experience in this state and can you
transfer this experience of seva to us
today. Thank you so much Bhagavan. I
love you.
A2:
When you become awakened, very naturally
you are involved in seva. It is not
something which is taught. That is the
way you will live after awakening. Until
that happens, you apply your mind and
you help others because you earn good
karma which will help you in your
awakening. In the new process which will
be released to you, what is important is
that you must become aware that you are
not able to do seva. It is not that
seva is demanded from you. You have to
become aware that you are not able to do
seva. That is enough. In the new
process, it is not that you must have
this, this, this and this. What is
important is that you've got to realize
that you do not have this, you do not
have this, you do not have this. That is
all that is required.
Q3: Namaste beloved Bhagavan. Lately I'm
seeing that the only expectation I have
is enlightenment. When I come to a group
meeting, I see the same expectation of
enlightenment flowering there. The
expectation and the focus on February
11. Is this expectation a hindrance for
enlightenment since there is a
disappointment behind every expectation.
Thank you very much dear Bhagavan.
A3:
Expectation is necessary but it is also
a hindrance, but we cannot help this. So
please continue with your expectation.
Do not worry about the disappointment.
Because what we are going to use in the
new process is the cosmic bulldozer to
bulldoze you.
Thank you Bhagavan!
Q4: I know intellectually that there is
divine, there is God but how can I
experience it in my body?
A4:
Yes, you cannot do anything about it. We
are going to make it happen. It is our
job.
Q5: Beloved Bhagavan, Please clarify
what is the connection between morals
and enlightenment. Does enlightened one
automatically become moral. You say that
his action is perfect. Will that action
be immoral one as well? My deep
gratitude to you dear Bhagavan. We love
you so much.
A5:
For the awakened one, all action is
perfect. He cannot think of right action
or wrong action. He spontaneously acts
and it is perfect for him. His actions,
society may call them moral or it may
say it is not moral. But the awakened
person will not care for it. So most
often his actions may be that which
society calls right action. But some
times it may not fit into what society
thinks also. Society may sometimes even
call it immoral or not right but the
awakened man cannot see it like that.
Q6: Dear Bhagavan, we are so happy to
have you with us today. Last time you
suggested us 3 points to focus on,
connection with the divine, gratitude
and craving for significance. we have
been doing it and discovering a lot for
ourselves. We are in the middle of a
week national oneness marathon process
now. Which topics and teachings would
you suggest us to focus on now in order
to get prepared for the new process.
With gratitude and love in my heart.
A6:
I would suggest you that you continue
with the same three teachings. Because
the new process is going to start I
think probably in a week's time. We can
continue with the three principles. And
you can get ready. I think you can focus
on these three principles and you are
very ready for the new process. Looking
at all of you on the screens, I clearly
get the feeling that you are very ready
for the new process.
Thank you! we love you Bhagavan.
Bhagavan:
You all seem to be very well prepared.
So all the blessings to you, shall we
now meditate?
