Good afternoon. Good afternoon. I welcome you with all my heart. I love every one of you unequivocally, unconditionally, because I can do that. When I speak of loving everyone, I mean just that loving the mineral kingdom, the vegetable kingdom, the animal kingdom, the human kingdom, and all the other kingdoms. Everything is based on love. And if you only learn to love enough, you become totally free. Love is freedom, freedom is love. Yet a lady called me this morning and asked me a question relative to love that I’ll share with you. She asked me, Robert, I’ve got a boyfriend who I love dearly. I’m on the verge of being enlightened. I become enlightened when I still love that person individually or when I love collectively. That’s an interesting question. I thought we’d discuss this and talk about it a little bit. A sage operates in all planes. A sage is none of this world. Yet, when the Aiyani looks at the sage, the Aiyani sees a reflection of himself. In other words, he creates a sage in his own image. So he sees others. He sees division. He sees separation. Whereas the sage does not see these things. The sage only sees itself. And the universe is itself. So what happens is this. If a person Every person becomes a sage, you have a boyfriend or a girlfriend or whatever, or there’s no wife. The love increases a thousand fold, then diminishes and increases. Either no individuality attached to it, then it appears as an individual.
The sage is only others. When the sage sees the beloved as others, and then himself or herself. the sage she is under the self, and the object of love for the sage, again intensifies a thousand times, because he’s seen the whole universe in the self, in a foreign person, which is the self. She is only the self, and the sage loves the self, and the object of her desires is the self. He takes care of itself. When a person becomes enlightened, you don’t have to give up anything, anything just changes to the self. Whereas in Aiyani, when a person was in ignorance, he could only see the expression of himself or herself. And he tried to make the Jnani into the image of himself. So he should instantly become enlightened to see what love is. Love is a clue that holds the universe together. Love is the reality of everything. Everything is pure love. The sage’s embodiment is pure love. This is why Krishna was able to love the gopis over the same time. time, as Krishna was living himself. He did not concern some of these things, these things are the care of themselves. Just try to remember who you are, and what you are. That’s all you have to do. Always keep guarding your heart. If you keep guarding your heart, love is the care of itself. Listen to yourself. What are the feelings of yourself? Do you feel separate from the universe? Do you feel that you’re an individual? Have you I have to struggle for survival, make things happen in your life.
Remember, I take these long poses so you can find yourself. I take these long poses between words. That’s what your choice is, reality. And the pose between words.
That pose is consciousness, emptiness, love. Feel the quietness in your mind, the stillness. Feel your own reality. People still wonder what spiritual practice shall do. Your soul will inquire you. Your soul will surrender.
There’s being a witness, there’s mantra japa, there’s prayer, meditation. What spiritual practice should I do when people want to do this? I always get confused about this. You ask yourself, what do you mean by spiritual practice? What is spiritual? What is practice? For some reason, we separate spiritual with materiality. What we call spiritual is everything. Everything is spiritual. There’s no such thing in the material world. Everything is spiritual. This is why Moses said, the ground problem that I work is holy ground within the spiritual universe. Therefore, whatever you’re doing is a spiritual practice. Whatever you’re doing is a spiritual practice. That’s what there is. There’s nothing else. It may sound a little strange to you, but it’s true. The person who robes a bank is practicing a spiritual practice. He doesn’t know it. The law of karma may have been proud of him to go to prison. It’s all spiritual. Everything is spiritual. It’s spiritual because it evolves you, everything evolves you, every act that you take, causes you to evolve. There’s no such thing as going backwards. You have to go backwards in time and space, which regress, in any way. Everything you do is for your own involvement, everything. This is why we say that reverence for everything. Worship everything. Everything is holy and sacred. People, animals, grass, bugs, birds, it’s all sacred. Love everything that you want. You will grow. You will grow as in yourself. There’s only God in you are that. There’s only Absolute Reality in you are that.
There’s only Consciousness in you are that. You are not your body, you are your mind. Always remember this. You are the Zua. Keep your life simple. Become like a child. Be full with awe. As if it was the first time you’ve seen them. Like a bed of grass or flower. A tree. And over the sky. As if you’ve seen them for the first time. Forget about your past. Everybody has a past. You can’t evolve by thinking about your past. You don’t have to think about the future. The future will come for you in what you believe today. Whatever you think today will create your future. Therefore, if you remember who you are today, tomorrow will take you of itself. Always try to be still. You don’t make unnecessary movements. Be quiet in the mind. Keep your mind from chattering, anything that you can. If you have to think of anything, think that you’re pure awareness. Everyone’s chosen pure awareness. That you’re bound with space. That you were never born and you could never die. But it’s better to keep quiet and think of nothing. Be still and know that I am God. All I am is God. But you can only experience this when you become still. If you didn’t know where to go, there’s nothing to do. Let me be happy where you are. Never compare yourself with anyone. Just be yourself the way you are, you will find peace. But to try to emulate anyone, bring your misery and fear.
Always be yourself, just the way you are. Have no fear. For I Am is with you always, even up to the end of the world. Can I ask? When you were speaking and you pretty much answered it, I was thinking, what is sacred? And you mentioned that everything is sacred. I was wondering if maybe you could go further in describing what sacred means and what things are sacred. Yes. Everything comes from one source. Where else will it come from? There’s only one source. This source is God, our consciousness source, Allah, whatever you want to call it. That source is within you. You are the source. Something that’s happening is happening from one source. Everything is sacred. If you broke down everything in the smoke, for instance, you would come with atoms, energy, pure energy. Pure energy is the one source. Everything is made out of pure energy. Everything is sacred. It all comes from the one. When we see a manifestation of the one, that’s what we observe. If you go in meditation deep within, you’ll see the one source is within you. That’s everything else from the one source. Everything is sacred. Everything is alive. There’s no dead and serial anywhere. Everything lives in glory and splendor. The minimal kingdom, visible kingdom, animal kingdom, human kingdom. Everything’s alive.
Totally alive. Nothing is dead. Being from a slay. It’s time for prasad.
