Shanti shanti shantiam. Good afternoon. I hear my voice going out in the airways. When I look at your world, what do you see? Problems, chaos, confusion. I tend to say that. He doesn’t have my problems. But I can assure you the illusions. Because you make them real. Like when you’re dreaming, the dream appears to be so real. Maybe a nightmare frightens you. But when you’re dreaming, you’re able to wake up and say, I’m going, wake up now. You’re going to wake in and dream will be over. Don’t ask you to let time and space take care of that for you, to awaken you so the dream is over. Life is like that. Same way, no difference. We’re all dreaming this mortal dream. We believe we’re really involved and our part is real. We’re really into it. We’re into suffering and being negative and being sorry for ourselves. And so we keep on dreaming. And we keep creating that situation we see. It gets worse and worse, because we’ll continue seeing it getting worse and worse. If we were to turn within and see ourselves through this problem, and if it says mine doesn’t belong to me, I’m going to go over it right now and see God as light, then we become free and liberated from problems. There’s nothing in this universe that can hurt us. There’s nothing in this world that can cause problems unless we allow it to. We’ve been trained to go by the wrong way, we’ve been trained to go by the wrong way.
We think we’ve got to resolve the problem if we become free. This is not true. The problem is incidental. You see what has to change. It’s hard to see this for some of us. We’ve got to change the problem unless it won’t go away. This is not true. Change yourself by seeing God, by seeing reality. Everything else will take its place by itself. Believe me, that’s how it works. I’ll be first. But fear gets a hold of you. And fear just propagates the problem, exacerbates the problem. There are no problems. You never want a little being. You’re not judged by appearances. You’re not alone. Of course, if you’re living in time and space, you’ll be putting room to think. There aren’t many problems. There’s no time and space. There’s only one’s self. It’s motivating. And you are the self. Where’s the room for a problem? And it was going to be the perfect self in the problem, and it was impossible to remain. And it was one or the other, you know, making. It was all pervading, all in perfect, pure, absolute reality, and nothing else but that, you and that, nothing. All is well. Most of us are aware that there are two main direct paths, and these are the liberation. After the achara, self-inquiry, and then I want to solve surrender. In this age, theseopaths have been given to us to practice, to become totally liberated by practicing. It took us to practice, we went to practice, and we’ll see many of the results of the practice.
But people will ask me rather highly surrender totally, highly surrender totally to God. We’ll talk about this today. At first, I remember that the vichara, and mostly for the intellectual and the vichara students. There’s a direct message of getting rid of the ego, of the refacement of the ego. I turned with him and inquiring, who am I? In the morning saying, who am I? Through the open right, it comes to renounce. In 1999, it said this, who sees the world? Doing these things, meditation as you go to work, surrender to God. And it’s more appropriate for most people today. Total surrender to God. I’m in total surrender, and just partially, and just trying to get rid of what you don’t like. In order for you to know everything that you have, you’re doing nothing. Take any practice when you’re up in the morning. God, take everything from me. I need nothing. Take it all. This is total surrender. If you think you need something, it’s not total surrender. If you’re giving God whatever you think you should give him, it’s not total surrender. Total surrender is when you surrender everything to God. Everything. The good and the bad. The ugly. Everything goes for God. You know, Lord, take this from me. I don’t need it any longer. Take my body. Take my wife. Please. Everything has to go. Everything. I’m on a shirt stick. I recall God knows exactly what’s going on. I’m going to give you whatever you need.
But it’s helping you to give up everything that you think you need. It’s helping you to give up everything that you believe that you have to have. It must be giving up everything. Give it all up, surrender it all. You have to stand naked before God, so to speak. You want nothing. Have no wants. You’re not going to feel this way. No more problems. No more making decisions what to do. You want to give up to God. You have nothing left. It’s all empty. It’s just my friend. It’s all compulsive in there. It’s not easy for some of us. Almost of them programmed to think otherwise it’s not easy to give up things So what have you got to do? It’s my will but thine. But I give up everything that God gives us all. And what’s happening, what are we doing? We’re getting up with our home. And it keeps really doing this way. So the mother, if it’s going to happen to you, you’re all up to yourself. For where is God but you? Where is God but you? So what you’re really doing is giving up everything to your higher self. You’re giving it all up to your higher self. It’s God, called God, the absolute reality. And if you continue this practice, you’ll start laughing at yourself. You have to know the Chara. No difference. You have to know the Chara, you follow the eye to the combination of the heart.
It’s really you’re following yourself, so you become the eye. If you’ve got to take away your problems, if you’ve got to make things better for you, get up everything. You’ll be free. You’ll practice every day. It makes you stronger and stronger. It will affect upon you. It will frighten you. You’ll accept this. And so you turn your problems over to your mind over and over again. We have to inquire who thinks? Who thinks your thoughts? What you’re really saying is where did they come from? Where’s the moon? There’s no room for them. There’s no space for them. No space for thoughts. All sorts of things are allowed. What do you think? What do you think will make you separate from the One? You don’t have thoughts in your mind. What do you think will make you separate from the One? Being that you separate from the One is an illusion, a listenerism, hypnotism, and we get you separate. There’s one power. One. You never forget to think of this every day. There’s only one. Listen. The peace that passes all understanding. If your mind starts singing again and asking, who are you? Where did you come from? Who thinks? There’s no room for thoughts. There’s no space for thoughts. There’s only one. One reality. One. the world is supposed to come from. Keep still again. Keep still. You’ll feel the soul disappear. You’ll get empowered by thinking of the other. You’ll get thoughts. You’ll be on good and bad thoughts.
You’ll be on thinking. The thoughts are only the substratum of existence. Substratum doesn’t even exist. The reality is beyond comprehension. You’ll substratum the whole existence as a superimposition of the self. All the good and best is a superposition of the self. Like the waves are superposition in the ocean. Bubbles come, bubbles go in the ocean. The ocean will be the same. The same as us. Bodies go, bodies come. There’s something that changes. Find yourself and be free. Find yourself and don’t know what we’re talking about. I pray something for a child to all surrender. Again, don’t surrender and leave me every month. You have to do it. Let me attach to surrender. surrender. Whether you fear you have surrender. The past has no life except what did you give it. The past has did. You know this. The past has did. It has no hole in you. You’re free of it now. There’s no future. The future is only the son that you think. It creates a future. The little head of the son that didn’t think were the future. You know, it transcends all karma from the scars. The notion of bliss. I am the bliss. Thank you. What’s going on Tuesday?
Any questions? Let’s eat.
