Catching the Master

In English there is a proverb, ‘If you lose your wealth, nothing is lost; if you lose your health, something is lost; if you lose your character, everything is lost.’

I think, even if you lose your character, nothing is lost. Only if you lose the connection with the Master, everything is lost! That is such a deep thing; the ultimate blessing. The ultimate thing a man can have is feeling connected to a living Master. Never miss it, if at all you got it.

If you feel that constant feeling connection has happened in you, do not miss it at any cost. Anything can be sacrificed to have that feeling connection with the Master, but that feeling connection should not be sacrificed for any reason. Throw away any idea which comes in between you and Him. Anything can be lost, but not this feeling connection.

Actually I am an uncompromising Master. People who live around me know that nothing can bend me. I will not compromise or slow down or dilute my training. But there is one spot where you can bend me - that is, when I feel that the feeling connection which the disciple has for me may be lost. Otherwise, nothing else can bend me.

If you want to bend the Master, this is the only way you can bend him. This is the only point where you can blackmail him. If you send a signal, ‘I think I am going to lose the connection with you’, then they come down

from their stand – alright, what to do!

That is why I always tell people that the feeling connection to the Master is the ultimate thing; if at all you get it in your life, never lose it. It is too costly; it is too much to lose! Even if you miss your things in the outer world it is okay, if you miss the ideas that you carry in the inner world that is also okay. But never miss your feeling-connection.

If that one thing is kept alive, so much can happen in. The possibility is available; the doors are open. The bridge is not burnt. If the feeling connection is taken away, whatever you may try, nothing is going to work.

Missing the Master

When you have the feeling-connection with the Master, a lot of things with which your ignorance survives, a lot of things with which your mind thrives, a lot of things on which your suffering is built, will be taken away from you.

But the problem is, ignorance is such it will constantly try to retain itself, and try to have a hold over you. It will be constantly trying its best to move you out of the feeling connection with the Master in all possible ways.

What Buddhism calls as Mara, what Christianity calls as the Devil, what Hinduism calls as Maya, all of this is nothing but losing the connection with the Master. The worst Maya, Mara, Devil, is losing the feeling connection with the Master. The devil does its job by making you lose the connection with the living Master.

Someone asked me, 'Are my samskaras from my previous lives an obstacle that the very samskara itself, the very engram itself, will not allow you to acknowledge that you even have a samskara. It will justify itself, because it is a question of survival for itself.

That is why I always tell people, when you are caught in engrams, when you are overwhelmed by these powerful unconscious drives of anger, lust, greed, fear, depression or jealousy, never make a major decision. Never try to escape from the Master when you are caught in your engrams. Just be in the Master's presence. Never miss that wonderful opportunity. You will be completely healed and you will be able to come out of it.

Never decide on anything when you are in the low mood. The low mood itself will naturally distort the facts for you. It is not the right condition to take any big decision. If someone leaves when they are in depression or in a low mood, when his mind comes back to normal, he will really repent his decision. But it will be difficult for him to come back. because he will be caught in guilt and will not feel qualified to come back.

So whenever somebody is depressed and he leaves me, I feel so much for him. It is not because I have one person less in the mission. No! It is because he left me at the time of depression. If this same person leaves me when he is happy, it is alright. It is a normal relationship. He will carry me in him wherever he goes. But if he is in a depressed state, not only will he not grow outside, he will never come out of that engram also. It will become a deep wound in him. Just as a cat whose tongue has been burnt by hot milk will never go near milk again, he will never go near a Master for many, many births.

Losing your connection with your Master is too strong of a loss. It is too big of a miss. Let it not happen to you in your life.

Abusing the Master

Sometimes, people have enmity against the Master, and try to abuse the Master out of ignorance.

But even when they do that, I tell you very clearly, many molecules in their own system will not accept it, will not tolerate what they are doing

  • because their very molecules carry the sacred, great, amazing, joyful, intense memory of the times and experience they had around the Master. The sweetness still remains fresh and alive inside.

But out of ignorance or arrogance or some other vested interest, they go on suppressing those beautiful great memories. Just to suppress the voice of their organs, the voice of their molecules, they raise their voice louder and louder and abuse the Master. They just want to avoid that part, suppress it, put it in unconscious - but unfortunately for them, no voice is unheard or suppressed by their own consciousness!

The suppressed voice and the suppressed truth, the suppressed experiences, naturally do not die, and those molecules which are suppressed, those organs whose voices are not heard, they naturally protest, and start a non-cooperation movement within the person themselves. This is what becomes physical and mental diseases.

Don't lose the feeling connection with the Master - it is too precious. It is like a small lamp kept in your heart; don't allow the cyclone of ignorance, or arrogance, or negativity and sensationalism, to put out your connection. Keep it alive; it is the ultimate gift!

I tell you two things: if you have not lost the feeling connection with the Master, don't allow the people who abuse the Master around you; do not

Feeling-connection with the Master is the ultimate gift!

TECHNIQUE: Connect With the Existential Energy

Below is a powerful meditation technique to be in constant feeling connection with the Master.

ABOUT THIS TECHNIQUE

Here we use the moment to reconnect to our own deepest being, and to rediscover the deep connection between the whole of Existence or the Master and ourselves.

This technique will appeal more to emotional people. It is to be done with a feeling of deep devotion. Any person for whom you feel a deep devotion can become a bridge for you to touch the Divine.

Understand, when we connect to the Existential energy though awareness, we experience universal Consciousness. When we connect to the same energy through bhakti (devotion), we experience God within and without.

INSTRUCTIONS

You may feel deep devotion to someone; you may feel deeply connected to someone in your life like God, Master, parent, friend, teacher, a leader who inspired you, a person who contributed something memorable to your life. You can remember more than one person as well, even two or three people who mean a lot to you like your lovely mother, your radiant Master, your favorite God or your beloved friend.

Close your eyes and sit in a relaxed way with your spine erect.
