Bhagavan says What is Life after Death?

Bhagavan says:

See when you die, the most fun part happens, is you do not get to know yourself that you are no more. The moment you know this, is when you start touching something and your hands could not sense it. There You come to know that “Yes, I am no more’. Then the initial process starts. For the first 3 days you live in your house seeing all the custom are been followed properly, which in other words is your Clearance Certificate to move into further processes. Then after 3 days your Journey starts towards stars and sky world., where you are taken upper world. Once you reached properly in astral world, first ones to welcome you can be your ancestors or your family people(if they have died) or if no one, then your teacher or your GOD(whom u used to worship). They will tell you about an overview of space world. They will be with you for some time. It seems like you are in amusement park. You are fulfilled with your wish of eating NON VEG/ DRINKS or seeing ladies dancing (everything is available) as per your desire. Females even beautiful than Aishwarya Rai there.


Then the times when your life's outstanding performance is reviewed. So you will be sitting in front of a big Screen where in your entire LIFE CYCLE is rotated start to end. The time is 3 MIN as per the space or astral CLOCK = your entire LIFE TIME as per your earth CLOCK. Things you did, will be shown and the reel of the picture will be very very fast in all the GOOD work/ KARMA you did. The REEL stops at your BAD work/ KARMA.


Then you will be made to put your foot in the other person’s footwear, with whom you did BAD work or said BAD WORDS or made them sad– so that you should experience that hurt. Likewise for each bad Karma you are made to Experience it. Say like : If you have hurt somebody with bad words, you are made to feel that hurt with the same BAD WORD, to make you experience how it actually feels, in real terms.


After this play is over, you are been asked with 2 options a) REBIRTH - with undergoing again more OF MORE PAIN OR b) MOKSHA – Free from all births. If Moksha it feels ok (which few number of people say), but because you are the better JUDGE for yourself ……most say Rebirth – so that whatever we did BAD during this birth we will experience Suffer it in Next Birth. Then you are  taken to different PAIN CENTRES like for HINDU - you will be continuously thrown where you wash clothes. So your BODY PARTS smashed and joined automatically, then the same thing again. For MUSLIM – you are thrown on a BLADE where entire BODY parts CUT into Parts. Joint automatically, then the same thing again. For CHRISTIAN- Your Body is put into HOT ROAST. Then the same procedure. So all are equally very bad. After all this process (depending on your culture religion)…. You are made to watch your next Birth body with its different characteristics and qualities with its fate and destiny. That’s how it goes

How to Avoid Arguments With Your Wife?

Sri Bhagavan Video Conference Youtube Online

Every one of us will have success stories as a part of our life journey. Similarly in Oneness, as a part of your inward journey (journey towards god), you might have undergone change in your behavior or character or attitude or mindset or way of approach. In a nut shell, there might be a drastic change in your personality after coming to Oneness.

Now Oneness Guides are eager to know such real life stories from each and every one of us.They are documenting such transformation stories from devotees, course participants, sevaks etc..

Please report your real life transformation stories in the aspect of personality (not miracles). Please report such stories as soon as you read this as we will post those stories as soon as possible.

Please report your transformation stories with the following elements:

1. What kind of transformation your personality had undergone after coming to Oneness?
2. How did you undergo this? (which sadhana/teaching helped you?)
3. Before coming to Oneness how was your personality?

Q:Some people when trying to experience the pain, it seems that they are only analyzing it, not experiencing it. How to sit with the problem without analysis being triggered? What should we do to get out of the mind and go deeper inside the heart?

Bhagavan: Yes.. see, the problem with humanity, and especially modern civilization, is we have stopped experiencing things. We hardly experience anything, leave alone suffering. Nothing is being experienced. When you drink a glass of water, you're not experiencing it. The mind is still working. You think about what happened yesterday, what's going to happen tomorrow, you're worrying about something or enjoying something, but not experiencing that drinking of the glass of water. While you eat, you do not experience what you're eating. When you brush your teeth, you do not experience what is going on.

Sri Bhagavan Questions & Answers Online

Here are some greatest questions answered by Sri Bhagavan to Sao Paulo, Brazil
December 19, 2009

Broadcast with Bhagavan - Brazil on 19-12-2009

(There is no recorded video or audio for this broadcast.)

Q1: How can I find and fulfill the mission, the purpose of my life?

A1: It is very important for people to discover their life purpose. What happens is that you do not have clarity and you also use your head to think and discover your purpose in life. You might think there is no harm in that. But even if you do not think there can be more clarity, you should take inside yourself: I do not have clarity. And just stay with it. You should not move out of it. And then, from the bottom of your being, you know exactly what is the mission and purpose of your life.

For example, when Gandhi was alive and moving around the country, he did not know how to make India independent. What to do? The British were a tremendous force. And it was not by violence. And he did not know what to do. So he just sat with the truth of that: I do not know. And in a few months, until a given day, suddenly, the thought came to him, we should boycott the British salt. This was a very funny idea. It was a great empire, and become free of that empire? Boycotting the salt. And he thought: yes, that's it. He began playing the mission, and soon billions joined him. And finally we became independent.

This idea is not something we can conceive. What we think about. No. You just get the fact: I do not know. Then suddenly, deep truth, it comes. This happens to any individual, because if you keep quiet, a huge processing occurs inside. If you keep thinking and fighting, you destroy this process. If you just stay quiet, just put this input: I do not know, I wonder - do it, and wait.

Just stay quiet. Sometimes the land must be untouched for a while before you begin to grow something new. So it becomes nourished. Likewise, you must be quiet, quiet activity, not indifferent or asleep. Just stay with the fact that you do not know. You must be intensely aware of it, then it comes. You bring it to light, and if you follow this, you will never, can never fail. So this is how you will discover your purpose in life.

Q2: Sometimes there is a conflict within me, use more of my time to help others grow in consciousness, or use more of my time to earn more money to survive and get a more comfortable life. How could I have a balance between the mundane and spiritual?


A2: Well, suppose you have some work to do, and while you're hungry. The best thing would be to eat first, and then do the job. Similarly, you have needs of self. It is more appropriate to first meet your needs before you get to help others. It is very natural, right and proper fit your needs.

If you do not, then what you do after is what is called: because ?? cultivated. Virtue must be something natural, not cultivated. That is why in Oneness we say, if you are not enlightened, do not behave like this. When you're not awake, do not behave like you are. You have your needs, then why should you focus on other people? It will not work. Your being must be expressed, and your hunger to be filled. And the most curious thing is that you will find that after you have completed your requirements, you will have a natural desire to help others. Not that you force yourself, or something that is contrived, not that you apply or use your willpower, no. Naturally you're going to help others. This is the moment when you will help others. And you become selfless.

Until then, be self-centered. Being self-centered is not wrong. The only thing is that the ego expresses itself in very dangerous ways, it means that you should not be self-centered (acting for your own benefit). You may sometimes think I am expressing myself, but this cannot be self-interest. That's what you should be careful. There is nothing wrong with expressing yourself and also going to help others on the spiritual path, because you feel so fulfilled. This longing is gone, you go to the next step, and your spirit begins to grow. But never deplete your being, and go help others. You're in big trouble sooner or later if you do. So, please, express yourselves. source

Discovering Causeless Love and Limitless Joy Sri Bhagavan Answers

Sri Bhagavan on Discovering Causeless Love and Limitless Joy

Question: Sri Bhagavan to discover causeless love and limitless joy?
What should I do to discover causeless love and limitless joy?

Answer:
One of the most important teachings of the dharma is that the content is not important. How you experience the Content that is important. What ever is happening in your life, you must learn the art of experiencing it. That is the true 'art of living'. The true art of living is to experience fully, totally and completely whatever is going on.

So, mostly what is going on is human interactions, your friends, your relatives, your boss, your children and your family. You are all the time interacting with them because life is relationship. Without relationship you don't exist. So, in this relationship you are transacting some kind of interaction. You may get hurt, you may get provoked, and you may get back some memories, all these are happening.

Whatever is happening, if you can experience fully, as I was speaking earlier, then you will find there is limitless joy. Now, what happens when there is so much joy? It doesn't stop there. It becomes love. Only a happy and joyous person can truly love. An unhappy person cannot love. That love is nothing but attachment, possession...true love comes only when there is true joy and true joy comes only when you experience what ever is going on inside. It is not very difficult.

Practice this for 21 days, if you keep trying it will become natural. What is not natural, what is not easy, I don't teach. There is no point in teaching that. Only what you can do I am teaching. The brain must learn a new pattern of functioning. It takes 21 days for that. After 21 days of practice you will find it becomes easy. It becomes like alcoholic addiction or drug addiction. Why are you addicted? Because it gives you so much joy or happiness or freedom. Same thing happens here also. Only thing is there are no negative side effects. There are very good effects on the other hand. You discover love, compassion. All these things happen.

So basically you must start with pain. You hold that pain like you hold a newborn baby. So carefully you must hold that pain you must know that it is a blessing. You must hold it, you must not condemn or judge it and strangely you'll find it is very painful. It will become pain in the chest region but slowly you'll find, you'll discover a freedom, joy and that will become love.
That is the way to get this causeless love and limitless joy.

Thank you Bhagvan for this great teaching.

Bhagavan Answers on Life Love Suffering

Q: Bhagavan, kindly tell me how to experience the suffering of the other as vividly as I do my own?

Bhagavan: Very often you try to explain away your suffering. You try to understand. If on the other hand, you stop doing these things, experiencing automatically happens. Let us say, you are married and your wife is shouting at you, and if you have read a lot of books on psychology you would try to explain her behavior, or would be busy trying to understand her. If you do neither of these, then you actually begin to experience her nagging. That is when something very strange and beautiful happens. It is only in the absence of explanations, judgments that we could experience another. That's why in the Movement many have learn to experience each other. Hitherto they complained about the nagging of the husband or the wife, today they are in ecstasy the moment the nagging begins. Hitherto they would run away from their homes, but now they don't. You could very well start with your intimate relationships.

Seeker: I am hounded by too many negative thoughts. I am not able to stop them through the best of efforts. What should I do to stay clear? Will these thoughts block my awakening?

Amma: Is it possible to classify any thought as being particularly negative? What exists is fear. Lust, jealousy and hatred are all interconnected and have their roots in fear. Humanity is ridden with fear, which is flowing through you. What could you do about it? Is there a door to shut out these thoughts? They come and go. Fighting these thoughts and digging into them would land you in depression. Get going with your work and help your fellow humans. All things will fall in place. No matter what your thoughts are, when the time comes, I will liberate you.

Q: What exactly is love, Bhagavan? Is love also an emotion like anger, like jealousy or is it a power that is hidden within man? Would love lead to suffering or to joy?

Bhagavan:

"The love that we are talking about is not an emotion, nor some power, as you say. It is none of these things. This love cannot be spoken about. We can tell you what it is not. The love of a parent for the child is not this love. The love between a man and a woman is not this love.

Your love of your friend is not this love. It is not attachment, it is not possession, it is not concern, it is not caring, it is none of these things. It is the stuff with which this universe is created. It is the stuff of the universe. It is your true nature. It is that which is there. If you go deeper and deeper into reality what there is, it is emptiness. It is all emptiness.

That emptiness is love. That is the love we are talking about. It has to be experienced. At the first level you have to become enlightened, at the second level a divine being must come into you, only
then you will know what it is. Otherwise it is beyond your grasp. We are not condemning the love you are experiencing now. This kind of love is perfectly fine.

What we are telling is, `that' love has no cause. If you see somebody, there will be `that' love. If you see an ant there will be `that' love. There is no cause for `that' love. For the love that you know there must be a cause. It must be your child, wife, friend, then there is love. On the other hand, when you experience causeless Love, you are in Oneness. You are no more separate from the dog, the leper, the beggar, or the rich.nobody is separate from you. There is complete Oneness. It is a love born of Oneness. So, It has no cause." source

About the star "Moola" and "Life Review"

Questioner: Has there been a time in history where God and humanity were in total harmony? Why did this change?
Bhagavan: We did have such a time. God would just chat with them. In some cases the antaryamin would be eating and drinking with people. Why this changes depends on the energies the Earth receives from the cosmos – it depends on our relationship with the star 'moolam', which in turn results in changes in the human brain.


Questioner: What happens to a person after death? Where do they go? What is the journey after death like?
Bhagavan: Normally after you die you hang around for 3 days. You can see everyone around you still. The person may not know he is dead for 3 days, although one people start weeping they begin to suspect. Doing a proper ritual can help them make a transition. Normally the journey begins after 3 days. It is a very beautiful journey. You meet people along the way that you knew. In ten days you meet the Light. By your clock it will take ten days. It is not as fast as in NDE's. There is a life review. You constantly go into the bodies of those you have interacted with. You judge yourself according to the same standards you use for others, and decide where you want to go. If you think you deserve to go to hell, then you can do so. There is a Christian hell, a Buddhist hell, an Islamic jehenna, etc, not much different from each other. On the other hand, you haven't judged people you will not judge yourself. If you ask for liberation, the beauty is that no matter what has happened in your life, the Light cannot say 'No'

We should have emotional bond with Bhagwan

Question - What is the easiest way to get your grace and how would you like your Bhaktas to be?
Answer by Sri Bhagwan - See, all that I want is, you have to just ask. When you ask you should not say simply - Bhagwan, Bhagwan...that is no use. How do you see Bhagwan - that is the question. Do you see him as a father or a brother or a friend or a son, whatever you want you have to put it in that framework and then there must be that actual feeling that you have towards your father and brother, know. The same feeling must be there. Thereafter it can either be a prayer or it can be an asking or a command, anything, that's not so important.
But is there a bond? You might be very good people but if you don't have a bond you don't get it. So, bond is the secret, emotion should be there. When we say there is a bond, what we mean is there is emotion. Emotion is the telephone line between you and Bhagwan. If there is no emotion, the telephone line is cut. It doesn't work well.

Questioner: Can you tell us about prayer? How should we pray? Is praying to you or Jesus the same as praying to God?
Bhagavan: If you ask, 'Who is God?' the antaryamin is God. As you grow, the way the antaryamin appears to you will also grow. It can be outside you also, and can take any form – Buddha, Christ, etc. It is the antaryamin who does everything. If you are waiting by the bus stop and want the bus to stop, you can ask your antaryamin. The antaryamin is also the bus driver! For Jesus or Bhagavan to pick up your prayer you must have a bond with them, an emotional connection, and clarity. Unless it is going to harm somebody most prayers will be answered.


Questioner: When we ask Bhagavan a question, how do we know if the answer is from Bhagavan or from our subconscious?
Bhagavan: you must ask Bhagavan to prove to you that it is the antaryamin and not just the subconscious. If it is the antaryamin there is a very nice feeling in the chest region.


Questioner: Can an ordinary devotee become one with God?
Bhagavan: Anybody can become one with God as long as you have a divine being within oneself and you have melted with that and it merges with your antaryamin. You yourself cannot become one with God.


Questioner: You say we can choose to be filled with divine entities. How can we be a help to the world if we are just a container for divine beings?
Bhagavan: If you are enlightened you can be a help to mankind. If you are filled with divine beings you can be a great help. You become a divine being, not just a container for them! When you talk of divine beings taking over, it is the descent of higher consciousness, not like a spirit possession. You experience life as Christ experienced life, not as one possessed by a spirit.

Questioner: How many divine beings can come through in one body?
Bhagavan: There is no limit. In the course of time, perhaps a few weeks, one being could become more dominant. But it is not like we think. They do not fight like us!

Questioner: Will enlightenment allow me to feel a connection with you all my life or will doubts still come and go?
Bhagavan: Enlightenment will not help much with this. Only a divine being will relate that way. A mere enlightened person will not do that.

4 things to ask yourself before you can succeed.

State of mind: - This is the word I want you to ingrain into your consciousness before you start reading this article. We are the decisions we make, we are our attitudes and our ambitions - and how diluted these are, or how strong they are; are totally dependent on us. If you have lived through life tripping over your own failures that seem to come at you thick and thin, then it's time to stop and think. It's time to re-assess what you are doing and rewrite your life story so that you can let go of your failures. This article will outline 4 things to ask yourself before you can succeed.

Do you have a plan? Life is a strategy. Success is a road you must build yourself to punch through the thickening thickets of failures that seem to grow around you. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Are you happy where you are? What do you plan to do with your life right now that will ensure that you will be happier later on? Come on; it's time to stop floundering around, almost drowning in a sea of disappointment and start the first stroke to that palm tree island of serenity. Have a plan. Look at your finances, look at your relationships, look at yourself. If you are going astray then it's time to correct your course.

Is there something stopping you? Is a past experience or a fear making you hold back? Psychologists all over the world agree that the biggest inertia to succeed that afflicts a lot of people is bad experiences that affect them consciously or subconsciously. Bad experiences can shape our subconscious into the hammer that just keeps banging away at us. It's time to take control of your life and stop letting the past hold you down.

Is there a part of your life that is constantly holding you back? How creative are you in solving this problem yet still being buoyant in life? This is another way to assess your life. It could be your job that is slowly killing you or a 'so-called' friend that seems to always be bringing you down. Carve away at that section of your life and leave it behind. Then and only then can you move forward.

It's time to look at a newer you. It's time for a change. Are you ready for that change? Every little thing you do can help to shape the new man or woman. Gaining confidence has an effect like a tiny snowball down a sharp cliff. Once you get going you can't stop. Wear new clothes, smile more at people, smile at yourself in the mirror. A new you is symbolic both physically an mentally - and it is just the push in the right direction you need.

You are the most important person in the world and you cannot afford to hold on to your failures. Ask yourself this, who is the person that can help you most? The answer should be obvious

Bhagvan Teachings Discover the 90/10 Principle

Here is yet another Teaching from our beloved Bhagvan, The Discover the 90/10 Principle. It will change our life (at least the way you react to situations). What is this principle?
10% of life is made up of what happens to you. 90% of life is decided by how you react.

What does this mean? We really have no control over 10% of what happens to us.

We cannot stop the car from breaking down. The plane will be late arriving, which throws our whole schedule off. A driver may cut us off in traffic.

We have no control over this 10%. The other 90% is different. You determine the other 90%.

How? ..........By your reaction.

You cannot control a red light. but you can control your reaction. Don't let people fool you; YOU can control how you react.

Let's use an example.

You are eating breakfast with your family. Your daughter knocks over a cup of coffee onto your business shirt. You have no control over what just happened.

What happens next will be determined by how you react.

You curse.

You harshly scold your daughter for knocking the cup over. She breaks down in tears. After scolding her, you turn to your spouse and criticize her for placing the cup too close to the edge of the table. A short verbal battle follows. You storm upstairs and change your shirt. Back downstairs, you find your daughter has been too busy crying to finish breakfast and get ready for school. She misses the bus.

Your spouse must leave immediately for work. You rush to the car and drive your daughter to school. Because you are late, you drive 40 miles an hour in a 30 mph speed limit.

After a 15-minute delay and throwing 100/-rs traffic fine away, you arrive at school. Your daughter runs into the building without saying goodbye. After arriving at the office 20 minutes late, you find you forgot your briefcase. Your day has started terrible. As it continues, it seems to get worse and worse. You look forward to coming home.

When you arrive home, you find small wedge in your relationship with your spouse and daughter.

Why? .... Because of how you reacted in the morning.

Why did you have a bad day?

A) Did the coffee cause it?

B) Did your daughter cause it?

C) Did the policeman cause it?

D) Did you cause it?

The answer is "D".

You had no control over what happened with the coffee. How you reacted in those 5 seconds is what caused your bad day.

Here is what could have and should have happened.

Coffee splashes over you. Your daughter is about to cry. You gently say, "Its ok honey, you just need to be more careful next time". Grabbing a towel you rush upstairs. After grabbing a new shirt and your briefcase, you come back down in time to look through the window and see your child getting on the bus. She turns and waves. You arrive 5 minutes early and cheerfully greet the staff. Your boss comments on how good the day you are having.

Notice the difference?

Two different scenarios. Both started the same. Both ended different.

Why?

Because of how you REACTED.

You really do not have any control over 10% of what happens. The other 90% was determined by your reaction.

Here are some ways to apply the 90/10 principle. If someone says something negative about you, don't be a sponge. Let the attack roll off like water on glass. You don't have to let the negative comment affect you!

React properly and it will not ruin your day. A wrong reaction could result in losing a friend, being fired, getting stressed out etc.

How do you react if someone cuts you off in traffic? Do you lose your temper? Pound on the steering wheel? A friend of mine had the steering wheel fall off) Do you curse? Does your blood pressure skyrocket? Do you try and bump them?

WHO CARES if you arrive ten seconds later at work? Why let the cars ruin your drive?

Remember the 90/10 principle, and do not worry about it.

You are told you lost your job.

Why lose sleep and get irritated? It will work out. Use your worrying energy and time into finding another job.

The plane is late; it is going to mangle your schedule for the day. Why take outpour frustration on the flight attendant? She has no control over what is going on.

Use your time to study, get to know the other passenger. Why get stressed out? It will just make things worse.

Now you know the 90-10 principle. Apply it and you will be amazed at the results. You will lose nothing if you try it. The 90-10 principle is incredible. Very few know and apply this principle.

The result?

Millions of people are suffering from undeserved stress, trials, problems and heartache. We all must understand and apply the 90/10 principle.

It CAN change out life!!! !!!

Divine Lovers Sri Bhagavan's Message to Mumbai

Divine Lovers Sri Bhagavan's Message to Mumbai

"What can we do as individuals in the face of inhuman violence, terrorism?"

We wake up to another day's revenge, retribution and rancor . The violence and brutality that surrounds us is the result of the destructive effect of fragmentation - one individual against another, one group against another, religiously, socially, culturally and economically. We are brothers and sisters, children of the same mother, inheritors of the same collective destiny. What we do to another, we do to ourselves. Why then do we behave as though we are inhuman warring tribal factions? How can we hunt or kill another? Is not the experience of pain same for all? Do not all living beings dread fear? How then can we perpetrate violence and pain on another? Will we today take the time to teach our children that division in any name whether sacred or secular is a crime? Will we tell them that we are human beings and not labels that divide us? Will we in this moment of crisis mould their young minds to be citizens of the world and not narrow bigots?

Ideological differences are at the root of the violence that is robbing sanity and endangering survival. When we become concerned with our own individual survival, with the survival of our group, our belief, we are being divisive and threaten the actual survival of the whole.

Let us have a deeper insight into truth. The violence and conflict we are witnessing is a dramatization of the unspeakable inner violence of humanity. We are not individuals, separate. What happens to us happens to all of humanity, all of life. Physically we might live isolated in our secluded homes, screening our domestic violence from the eyes of the world but psychologically we are inseparable from the whole of mankind. The poisonous fumes of our inner turbulence seep through the collective consciousness of humanity. The violence within us, between parents and children, husbands and wives, brothers and sisters and at work is the very source of danger and destruction.

Let each one of us respond with a sense of immediacy. Let all of us, the atheist and the God fearing, the peasant at the plough and the mother beside the cradle, the office goer and the laborer, let us all own responsibility for what is happening around us. What ‘can' we do as individuals now? What ‘must' we as individuals do now?

How can each of us be content to see some heroes and professionals sacrificing their lives to protect the safety of others while we remain passive onlookers watching the drama of terror unfold right in front of our eyes? The specialists, whether from the armed forces or the political systems can alleviate the pain of the moment. They can remove the symptom but the cause of the violence lies simmering within our consciousness. It lurks as conflict, suppressed anger, divisiveness and spite within every one of us. Until this issue is addressed, violence would continue to unfold in the world's nations in one name or the other. The real solution therefore is to turn our attention inward, can we recognize the violence within and give way to peace. Even if 10 million among us who belong to a nation of 1 billion will get into peace, violence will subside. If 10 millions will move into a higher state of consciousness, a state of total inner non-violence, peace and wellbeing would be possible. Though the causes of violence would continue to exist, they will not translate into acts of violence. We are the triggers of violence or peace. We cannot return to business as usual without steering away from our own inner strife.

The destiny of every human being known and unknown is tied up with us. In the crucible of terror that surrounds us, let us recast ourselves into a new generation of human beings. Let us move from the dark night of division towards the dawn of co-operation and Oneness. There is light at the end of the tunnel.

--Sri Bhagavan

Set Right Relationship With Parents

How to set Relationship right with parents?
You should work on setting right your relationship with parents. Work on accepting your Mother and Father as they are. If you are judging them. Nothing wrong. It is a problem within you. Not in them or in what they do. You should accept this fact and work on it. Accept and be comfortable with your life. Put in your hard work and see what is your hindrance. Unless you put in your effort you won't know what you can do and can't do. When you know that things are not under your control that is when we are in a position to receive abundance of Grace. No point in reading all these materials. You should work on them. Life will automatically reveal the secrets to you. Remember Bhagavan's words "This is a DO IT YOURSELF Dharma. If you do this, this will happen. Try it and see."

What Are The Means To Become Happy?

Sri Bhagavan Answers
Question: What is the real meaning of Enlightenment?
Sri Kalki: See, to be enlightened is not to feel separate from the other.You are there. You feel you are separate from all these people. Suppose you are to become enlightened, you will say you only are the other. If you feel that way, where can there be conflict? There can only be love. Isn 't it? That's all there is to it. And always there is happiness also. A happy person cannot trouble others. An unhappy person will be pinching other. Will give pain to others. After Enlightenment nobody gives trouble to another. Everybody is happy. You will find in this village, all people gathering, singing and dancing. All kinds. Caste is not a problem. Once you are Enlightened there is no caste. The Harijan, the Bramhin, all will be singing and dancing. Everything goes off.
The caste is gone. Muslims dancing with Hindus - you can see it in this village. Everything has happened because they are in a different state. They are all helping. You don't find street fights. Completely transformed. And we had taken up this place because it was a horrible place. That's where we have proved it. Total transformation.

Every month we are having a program. Atleast 500 people come for Enlightenment from the local villages. People are standing in a queue, because we cannot take more than that. It is spreading very fast. Imagine the whole of India Enlightened. Then, what happens to all the problems that we are talking about? There is a coolie in this village who is Enlightened. Now, every rich man wants her to come their house and perform Kalasha Pooja in their house. It's a pride to invite her to their house now. All social dynamics have changed.

How come people are getting transformed so suddenly? Because this does not take much time. Yesterday you were very ordinary. Today you are transformed. Just 24 hours. And it's irreversible and permanent. So what more can somebody ask for? Poor people in villages are dancing in joy and they call their dance "The dance of Freedom". Even the richest man in Karnataka cannot have 1/1000th of their joy. And ofcourse along with this joy you will also become prosperous. The mind is so clear. Whatever they touch, it is successful.

Question: What are the means to become happy?

Sri Kalki: To me happiness is when you help others. But helping others is not so easy. When I do this Neuro-Biologial transformation, you naturally feel like helping others. And as you help others you become happy. You can try and see. When you help you become happy. But you must be naturally helping others, which is a state of mind.

Question: How is it going to be in the next 10 years?

Sri Kalki: I am producing Enlightened people by the hundreds everyday. Soon its going to be an explosion. I will say this is the last phase of man. It is like - Man has been building a house for so many thousands of years now. And 2004 to 2012 is the grahapravesham. Man has reached the final stage after all these years of struggle. You will see a very different world, which you cannot even imagine now and it will happen very fast. Very very fast.

CONVERSATION WITH SHRI BHAGAVAN Nice one

CONVERSATION WITH THE LORD SHRI SHRI BHAGAVAN DURING THE YEAR 2001

Q. Many people do not have mystical experiences. Is it you who decide? What should we do to get mystical experiences?

A. Yes, many people do not have mystical experiences.It is mainly due to biological reasons (70%) & psychological factors (30%). The biological factors being your situation at the time of conception, health condition, food, weather, body's response to the climate at the time of your experience. Your psychological factors depend on your karma,which should be removed only by Samskara Shuddi. In three to four month's time, there will be more Samskara Shuddi. However, by the year 2002, everybody will have mystical experiences.

Q. Do you receive the prayers of Christians & Muslims when they pray at their Churches or Mosques respectively? What is the difference between our prayers to you & their prayers?

A. Yes. Their prayers do reach me and I receive them as I do receive yours. The difference is only that they do not relate to me in the manner you do.And moreover,for them GOD is an abstract from, which is why it is difficult to get me action upon their prayers. But you have a bond with me and pray & that is why it is easy for me to act immediately and spontaneously. Their prayers would definitely reach me more effectively only if they have a strong bond with Christ and Allah respectively. My Grace would reach you only if you have a strong bond with me in whichever form you like.

Q. Is creation a thought of yours? Other than you, what is absolute in reality? If creation is a sport, why is this self-inflicted pain on you, the Creator?



A. Creation is a thought of both you and me. Your outside reality depends on you internal subjective mind. Now see, if we all collectively wish we could just make this hall vanish and land up in a desert or in an ocean bed. Again, for that you should all be in tune with me. Of course, there is a mistake in the creation of this Universe itself, which will be rectified & the appropriate time has also come.Not all creation is imperfect.These imperfect places are very few,like your Earth,which is the way it is today.If you are mystic,you will be able to see some of my other Lokas, I would definitely show you, you would love to see them. Again, the Earth will also become a perfect place by the year 2023, when Satyayuga will commence.

Q. What is the purpose of this creation?

A. There is no purpose for this creation. This creation is for you to enjoy and be happy. It is a Recreation Ground to enjoy. I want you to enjoy and be happy and lead life not the way you are leading now. Eg. Nataraja dancing has no purpose. He is happy and felt like dancing, so he is dancing. There is no purpose behind his dance.

Q. Is it possible to attain Mukthi through Bhakthi? If so, why are we concentrating on Dhyana and Jnana?

A. Yes, it is possible to attain Mukthi through Bhakthi Marga, like Ramakrishna Paramahamsa; it is possible through Jnana Marga, like Ramana Maharshi; it is possible through Karma Marga, like Mahatma Gandhi. There are people who have attained to Mukti even in the Vara Yajnas. There are people who have attained to Mukti even before Vara Yajnas. It is not necessary that you have to go through Vara Yajna, Parinama Yajna and Mukti Yajna. In fact, it is the most easiest way. But present day people wanted Dhyana and Jnana. Choose whichever way you want.

Q. As Narayana, you have done so much to the people and you have been doing so much to us? Do you expect anything in return from us?

A. No, I do not expect anything from you. Like how a friend does not judge his friend, like how a father does not judge his own child, I am happy doing it. You are not separate from me. My body does not stop with this. It extends. I see you all inside me. It is like I am looking at hands and fingers. In fact you can call me the most self centered person.

Q. Are you partial to some? Like, for example, an engineer in my office has only a Srimurthi, does not even know the Moola Mantra, but at times of crisis, he gets his things done only by a look at the Srimurthi and conveys his problem; whereas there are so many people in the slums who are suffering. Why don't you help them?

A. No, I am not partial to anybody. The reason why the engineer gets my grace immediately is that he has a strong bond with me and it is easy for me to work like that. And, those who are suffering are not in tune with me and their Karmic cycle has still not come for them to get tuned with me. But don't worry, everything will be fine by the year 2010. Like the pawns being moved in the game of Chess, I am moving the pawns accordingly, slowly. I only wish that the devotee do not lose their faith in the meanwhile.

Q. Genetic Disorders - Whether is it due to Karma or due to the defects of the Universe?

A. The mistake is in the creation & in God. God is not perfect, neither is creation. If there is perfection,that means there is some problem somewhere. Only when there is imperfection, creation can keep moving forward. You are only a victim to this imperfection. I have come to acquit you of your faults.

Q. Will at any point of time,Bhagavad Dharma be accepted as the only Dharma of mankind?

A. No, at no point of time will Bhagavad Dharma be the only Dharma. Other Dharmas will also co - exist, co - operating very well with Bhagavad Dharma. There are a lot of things we have to learn from other faiths, because in our Dharma, we concentrate only on Mukthi. There are many things we don't teach in our Dharma, which we will have to learn from other faiths. The other faiths will co - operate and they will not fight as we are fighting now.


Q. There are people with no health, financial, relationship problem. Is God required in his life, and will he seek God?

A. There will never be such a situation at all until he is enlightened. Man will have sufferings. If there are no sufferings at all, his existence itself will become a suffering for him.

Leo Tolstoy had everything he wanted but also had spiritual suffering, due to which finally he got enlightened.

Q. When Satya yuga comes, will there be Laws, Rules, Courts etc.? When will it begin?

A. I would definitely like all these things to exist in Satyayuga, but will function differently, unlike the way today's Lawyers and Courts are functioning. Satyayuga will commence from the year 2023. By that time, there will emerge new laws and rules for the society. After that, man will exist for another one thousand years.Thereafter,man will be unisexual, no division of man and women as there is now. He will not require food, he will get them from the atmosphere. And from that point of view, man will never need Laws, Rules, Courts, etc.

Q. Why are there so many changes in the Dharma for the past six to seven years?

A. Yes, there have a lot of changes in the Bhagavad Dharma. Of course, for various reasons. Look, as a child you will not be able to or do you have to know everything. But

as you grow, you will know more. Do your sadhanas and get ready for the next Mukti Yajna, in which you will be made great Sidda Purushas and do great miracles like Shirdi Sai Baba. It is not only I perform miracles, it is both of us perform miracles. Remember, in this matter, You and I are partners. We are co - creators. Come let us join hands and create.

Q. Why do other Swamis, Seers do not teach us the way to Mukthi?

A. Well, all are doing good jobs in their own ways respectively, like the Satya Sai Baba's hospital is the best in the whole of Asia. But I am focusing on Mukthi. There are many religious heads who have openly come out in acceptance of the Avatar, for eg., an Archbishop in South America has got very good communion with his Antaryamin.

He removes his Archbishop dress, comes as a normal man and receives the teachings. Another Muslim, who was a terrorist, is now a staunch devotee of Bhagavan and is spreading my Dharma in America. There are many Swamis of various Mutts who have come out openly to say that the Avatara Purusha has already come. Wait, everything will be fine soon.

Q. Ancient man had very good communion with God, but as civilization came, why did he go away from God? Is civilization desired?

A. Yes, ancient man had very good communion with God. He has not lost that communion due to civilization, but due to other factors like the cosmic cycle and civilization was born after losing the communion. These could be, the movement of the earth, the solar eclipse, the various energy fields of various planetary configurations. The energies of all these fall on the earth during their course of journey, by which the bond of God and man became far. There is nothing like good or bad in the society. If you are suffering, it is not due to your mistake. By the year 2023, everybody will be enlightened and at that time there will be no question of division. You may do anything, but do it with complete awareness. Everything is perfect, if done with complete awareness and that is what Bhagavad Dharma teaches.
For eg., if a person comes to us and says that he is getting angry, we do not tell him don't get angry. We only ask him to become aware of what he is doing.


Q. If you could feel the suffering of man, why did your Avatar take place so late?

A. This is the right time for any Avatar to take place and this is the only suitable time for me to come down, because it is very difficult to come every now and then. Now that the Vishwa Chaitanya is favourable to me,I have descended. If at all you want to know how exactly it happens, I could show it to you, if you are a mystic.

Q. Are there many Gods or is there is only one God? Is it true that certain parts of our body are the seats of certain Gods and Goddesses and can we contact them by doing Dhyana?

A. The fact about many Gods is true and the concept of one Vishwa Chaitanya is also true. There are also many of you over here who can become Gods. Again there is a perfect understanding between various Gods and Goddesses. For e.g., if you pray to one God and if that God is busy,he may request some other God to attend to that prayer. Many of you would have had such experiences. But definitely help would reach you. Coming to Vishwa
Chaitanya, the God who came as Rama and Krishna is talking to you in front of you. Yes, it is true that certain parts are centres for some Gods. Because the universe model is there in this body of yours and if you want to contact any God you may do Dhyana on that particular part in your body and definitely you would get a response from that particular

God/ Goddesses. It is very true.

Q. After self goes, there is a Witness. Who is witnessing ?

A. We have said that there is no self. But we have not said that there is no soul. After death, the soul (which is the size of your thumb) leaves the body and goes. The body is impermanent in which the self is only a concept. Your soul is a witness to all your activities in all your lives, because that is the real consciousness, which never dies.

Q. How do we get Antaryamin?

A. There is a lot of good and bad Karma, which effects your seeing or having an Antaryamin. Like for e.g., it depends on the thought pattern of your mother when you were in the womb, the situation at the time of your birth, again depending upon the Doctors and Nurses who received you, the feelings and emotions of the relatives around you that time of your birth and what happens to you for the first 6 hours after the birth. All these factors effect your having or receiving your Antaryamin. Don't worry, by the year 2012 everybody will have an Antaryamin.

Sri Bhagavan's Message for the Youths Indian

"""""Sent: Sunday, 21. September 2008 9:10 PM
Subject: {Oneness Era} Message from Sri Bhagavan to Indian Youths

On 20 Sept 08 I had the personal darshan with Sri Bhagavan.

Here is Bhagavans Message for Bangalore Youths or Indian Youths in General.

Question:- Bhagavan what is your message for the Youths ?

Sri Bhagavan's Answer: I want them to become successful; to become prosperous and wealthy. If they become prosperous; poverty can be wiped off. I want them to be worldly wise successful in the world, not go after Mukthi right now. First let them be successful then Mukthi. You must encourage them to make money and be focused on that. Lets make this country wealthy.

Q: Bhagavan, kindly tell me how to experience the suffering of the other as vividly as I do my own?
Bhagavan: Very often you try to explain away your suffering. You try to understand. If on the other hand, you stop doing these things, experiencing automatically happens. Let us say, you are married and your wife is shouting at you, and if you have read a lot of books on psychology you would try to explain her behaviour, or would be busy trying to understand her. If you do neither of these, then you actually begin to experience her nagging. That is when something very strange and beautiful happens. It is only in the absence of explanations, judgements that we could experience another. That's why in the Movement many have learnt to experience each other. Hitherto they complained about the nagging of the husband or the wife, today they are in ecstasy the moment the nagging begins. Hitherto they would run away from their homes, but now they don't. You could very well start with your intimate relationships.

Bhagavan on the Illusion of Self What is my real existence

Bhagavan on the Illusion of Self

If self is an illusion, who am I? What is my real existence?

You do not exist. That is the truth. That sense of "I and you", the sense of separateness, is an illusion. It does not really exist. For example, as you are listening to me, you are seeing me but you are not hearing me, and when you hear me, you are not seeing me. But that is happening so fast, that you have this illusion that you are seeing and hearing. The two senses have got coordinated, like in a movie, unless you have those 16 shots moving per second, you will not see the hand movement in the movie theatre. If the projector is slowed down it becomes only like a slide show. Similarly, here the senses are coordinating at a particular speed whereby you are feeling that you are seeing, touching as though all these things are going on at the same time. It is this illusion that creates the sense of "Me" and "I". If this is slowed down, you all just vanish! So, now you are there. If I were to slow down your senses, if you would give me permission, you would just disappear. You will go back home minus yourself! But you will still be very functional, you will in fact be very efficient. The sense of separateness would completely be gone. What remains there is life or you may call it pure consciousness; the stuff from which this whole universe is made. What is there ultimately is consciousness and that has to only to be experienced. How can you see yourself? There is no way to see consciousness, because you are that. Its true nature is Ananda and Love. It is a causeless Love.

What you call love is not truly love. You either beg for love, asking somebody to give you love, or if you give love it is because somebody is big or famous or great or wealthy or you have something to gain from that. You love your wife or husband because he or she means something to you. You possess somebody, you are attached to somebody. That is not the love we are talking about. This love is a causeless love. It is just there. This can happen only if the "I" the "self" disappears. It's a very simple thing - the senses have to be slowed down a little bit... and behold; you are not there! What is there, is only life. You will feel you are one with the universe, completely one. It is not a mystical experience. A mystical experience comes when the kundalini rises to the chakras, but when it comes down... the experience is lost. We are not talking about that. We are talking of a very robust state of 24 hours irreversible consciousness. You are completely gone. To attain this state you must qualify. The qualification is, you must set right your relationships.

It takes only 7 minutes for me to give you that state where you perceive everything without the "Me" or the "I". For example: when I look at you people, I don't feel you are outside of me. It's as though all of you are inside of my belly, I can never see anything as separate. It's a fact and reality for me, and this is how all these people who have got the state are experiencing. You can experience it. Somebody is not outside of you. Strangely the boundaries of the body cease. You no more can see it as your hand or your body, It's gone. The whole thing has become your body, it is a part of you. It is then that you have this true love, because it is a part of you. There is no cause, and there is no question of the mind slipping into the past or worrying about the past or projecting into the future or thinking about the future. It lives in the moment. Every moment it lives and you start really living. Right now, what is happening is, you are merely existing. You live because you are afraid of dying. Otherwise you see no reason why you should continue with your mediocre life. You get up in the morning, go to the toilet, brush your teeth, have your breakfast, pack up your lunch, go to office or do some business, come back, have a quarrel with your wife, have a fight with your child... again come back watch your TV... day in day out...this routine, mediocre, meaningless, purposeless.

You create of course some meaning. You say, "I'm doing some social work...helping man...." and all kinds of things because you have to invent these things. There is no meaning, because deep inside there is only sorrow inside you. You don't know what to do with your lives. You've got into this mechanical trap created by self, by the "Me". So, you have built up various escape systems, mechanisms and you continue with this kind of life and the only reason you are not sick is because, I can probably say, you are afraid of dying

You have had no moments of ecstasy or bliss or joy. It is what really life is all about. You've certainly missed out on all that. So, sometimes I marvel how people are able to live. It really baffles me. To me, giving enlightenment is not a big problem at all. To me the problem is, "I wonder how people continue to live, how many escape systems can they build! They have TV systems, computers, sky diving... and what else...." somehow you must manage your lives. You are managing your sorrow, you are escaping from your sorrow, doing all these things but fundamentally that pain is there inside; that ache, what's all this? What is the meaning of life? Where are we going? We are getting older, and seem to have achieved nothing and what is the purpose of all this?

That is the meaning of the word ‘Dukha'. There is no translation for it in English. We use the work ‘suffering', which is not the true meaning of the work ‘dukha'. It is a very abstract and not clearly definable ache you have, the ache which Buddha had. He had everything in life yet that pain was there, that sense of "what's all this about". That is what we mean by the work ‘dukha'. So, this has to go. That's the reason for the Mukti Yagna. But you must first feel that pain. That's the 1st qualification. If you don't feel the pain and say, "OK! I'm managing my suffering and I'm happy with it" then I have no business with you.

I can help you only if it is going to really trouble you. The second thing is, your relationships. That's very important. Then you are ready for receiving my grace of Mukti. Only then you'll know what true love is, what compassion is, what it is to share your life with others, what all this talk of oneness is. All the scriptures will start revealing themselves to you. Nobody needs to teach you. You are your own guru you can see it for yourself.

What is the Purpose of Life? Sri Bhagavan Answers

Q: Bhagavan, what is the purpose of life and why have we come away from the light if we were once part of it?

Bhagavan: The purpose of life is to live. There cannot be any other purpose. But what it is to live, you have no idea about it. Enlightenment is to help you to live. You are not living now. You think you are alive. Actually I and the Dasas here, we can actually see that you are dead. We are only dealing with dead people. Only when you become enlightened you will really start living. You do not know how to live, that is the purpose of life.

Now, why do we come away from the light? Some of you who have gone through the higher processes would be knowing, there are stages when you will feel that you alone exist. You alone exist. It is not such a nice thing. So how would God or the light continue to be like that? It has to bring about this creation, so that some kind of separation then we can start playing. So, you have basically come down to play and to enjoy. But nobody seems to be playing. Everybody has become serious. That is the unfortunate thing. Think of it. Billions of years of creation, complex processes, all that has happened, and what do you with your life, you sit in the office, put ink on paper and you are doing something. What is that? You are born and very soon you land up in school, you have to climb so many things, your homework, then quickly fall in love, quickly get married and then have children and take them to school, stand in a bus stop with tiffin carriers packed with the mid day meal. You rush through that and you come back home tired and you are not even able speak to your wife. What is all this? Your life is just terrible. The marvel is you continue to live and you will say you are enjoying life. That is the big miracle. I am seeing the whole world, it is full of miracles. And this is the miracle that you are performing. You get attached to property. To me do you know it is a miracle? How can somebody be attached to something, it is a miracle. Because that is empty, you are empty and you feel that you are so solid and you are so attached to it. It is indeed that you are performing your own miracles. So, life goes on, it is a mediocre life, and you have achieved a little bit of name and fame, and you are very satisfied with that, or you want more name and fame, but what is all this about really? It is all dead. A dead man, all these things are dead. There is no life in them. You don't live at all. Unfortunately you do not know what it is to live. And you think this is life and it goes on. I am not saying you should not do these things. You can do these things but still you can live. You can still go to office, you can still do all those things, you can still carry your tiffin carrier, run behind buses but it is a terrible society, but still you can live. But if you cannot live what is the point? So, my pain is that you are not living. That is why this whole work, to help you to live. To help you to really know what you are here for. You are here to have a good time, to play. Life is a game. It is a beautiful game and you must learn how to play, and you must play. People enjoy playing a game knows? But then all of you have become dead serious, you are serious about everything. If something goes wrong, immediately you collapse. But if it were a game would you collapse? You wouldn't. So the only way to make you live is to make you enlightened. There is no other go. Whatever form of enlightenment does not matter, but you must become enlightened. I don't want to go more into it because it gives me pain when I focus too much on that.
