V. CREATE A NEW YOU🔗

Seeking is the fire that constantly helps you to reinvent yourself. I tell you, all the best things in My life, health, the best goodness I felt about me, the ultimate ability to do tyaga (sacrifice), everything, was living in Me when I was seeking.

Even now it is living in Me, because I am established in seeking. Even an Incarnation is established in seeking. Before My enlightenment I was seeking Enlightenment. Once Enlightenment has happened, the mind disappeared, I realized, ‘I am the whole, I am the Cosmos.’

But the Cosmos itself is not stagnant, it is constantly expanding. How can it expand if it doesn’t have seeking to become something more? So the very expansion of Cosmos is fuelled by the seeking of Cosmos. That is why I am saying, even after I have realized, ‘I am the Cosmos,’ my mind has disappeared, but not seeking.

Mind disappearing is only called as Enlightenment not disappearance of seeking. That is why I insist Enlightenment is the ultimate, but not final.

Giving in to your compulsory patterns is suffering. Making the seeking as the compelling form of existence is Enlightenment.

Giving in to your patterns and compulsions are not freedom. Unfortunately, the western civilization is teaching you, the materialistic civilization is teaching you, giving in to your pattern and compulsions is freedom. They also supply material for your pattern compulsions, and swindle you and rob you.

Giving in to your pattern and compulsions are not freedom. Make seeking as the compelling reality of you. Let seeking be the first response from you.

Let me define Seeking. Whatever I feel as ‘me,’ what is that? It is constantly changing, sometimes it feels good, sometimes it is bad, sometimes right, sometimes wrong, sometimes knowledgeable, and sometimes ignorant.

You should only ask, ‘What am I?’ Because you don’t even know whether you are a being or some inanimate object. The word ‘Who am I’ comes with the presumption you are a being, even that is not sure.

Only when you realize who you are, you can be a being. Until then, you are just only an innate existence. There are tons and tons of compulsions you may face in your life, social compulsions, family compulsions, political compulsions, and economical compulsions.

But the worst compulsion is pattern compulsion. Pattern compulsion is the worst compulsion, where you are eternally imprisoned. Life becomes worse than hell when you are caught in pattern compulsions. Seeking is the antidote for all pattern compulsions.

The place where you stay, your house, your office, just go into those places, you will see each place has a strong pattern associated with it. How much ever you try the moment you go and sit in your bed, you will fall asleep, even if it is daytime, even after sleeping for twelve hours.

You may think, ‘I will sit in my bed and do work.’ The moment you sit, Nidra Devi (goddess of sleep) just embraces you and calls you, ‘my son, please come...’ and you’re out.

Patterns and pattern compulsions are associated even with places. Go to your office, automatically you will be restless, agitated, feel like biting everyone you see in front of you, whoever is seen by you will have your ‘blessings.’ With each place, certain patterns are associated.

Constantly keep your seeking alive. What am I? What is it I see all around me which I tag as world? Which I classify as world?

Before accepting any friend request on Facebook, you try to see the profile. In the same way, before accepting the friend request from the world, please try to see the profile of the world, ‘What it is? Who made it?’

Whenever you try to find somebody's profile, any amount of information given looks very little, you try to look for only this much, 'no, this fellow has something to hide.'

Even if you need to move along with your life not forgetting that you are having only too little information, you need to dig it out, and get all the information, After you receive the information, you should be ready to change, reinvent, and re-strategise yourself. This is Seeking.

The materialistic civilization never lets you sit back and look. If you are allowed to sit back and look you are a dangerous person. You will find the shallowness of it. Sitting back and looking is what I call unclutching, meditation, and seeking.

Sit back and look: What for are you looking, what are you looking, where are you looking? Are you looking in the right direction, what are you looking? These basic questions are enough, all the make-up of the world will disappear.

If you go in the rain, the black will become white, and white will become black. This means the hair which was dyed will become white, and the face which was painted with white will become dark, because the dye has come out. Exchange of color.

I tell you, sit back and look, you will suddenly see what you are looking can never be delivered from whom you are looking, and from where you are looking.

That is why the materialistic society and its day to day routine is always constantly pushing you, never letting you sit back and look.

Ramakrishna, an enlightened Master, says again and again, ‘once in a while, you should withdraw from your office, house, everything. Just sit back, and look.’ I tell you, not once in a while, every night you have to withdraw, sit back and look at your whole life, ‘What are you? What am I? What am I looking for? Where I am looking for that? Whom am I looking for? Am I going to get it?’

Coming back to the basic questions is Seeking. You may be running in any speed with your materialistic needs, demands, fear, and greed, but retaining the capacity to reinvent yourself and re-strategize yourself with the conclusions of your seeking is keeping seeking alive.

You might have established a business for twenty-five years, suddenly your seeking tells you that it is not the right field. As per the conclusions you arrive with your seeking, having the ability to just change, reinvent, re-strategize yourself with something new, as per the conclusions of your seeking, is keeping seeking alive. Ability to be liquid, ability to be alive, ability to be a seeker.

Many people in my ashram also want to change the department, sometimes change the ashram, sometimes change the organization itself, out of their boredom, not out of their seeking.

I am not talking about that. Many people change job, change house, change car, change wife, change everything, out of boredom. Changing due to your boredom is different, reinventing and re-strategizing due to your seeking is different.

Reinventing and re-strategizing due to the conclusions of your seeking is different from changing due to your boredom and pattern compulsions.

Changing due to your boredom leads you to a deeper and deeper hell. Reinventing, re-strategizing due to your seeking leads you to Enlightenment.

Discovering your Consciousness experientially is the purpose of your life? I am not using the word inventing. I am saying discovering. Discovering your Consciousness is the purpose of life.

Whether you lived as a spiritual being, as a cook, lawyer, engineer, doctor, political leader, professional, or not doing anything, nothing counts!

The only thing that counts in the Cosmos is: 'Have you discovered your pure consciousness?'

The good news I have is, nothing that you considered as the goal of your life, whether you achieved it or not achieved it, is not considered as a goal in the Cosmos.

If you think you have do not have a good name in your neighbourhood, don't worry; it is not the goal of life. If you think you don't have this, you don't have that, don't worry; this is not the goal of life.

People who have all those, wasted their time and energy! The one and only goal of life is DISCOVERING YOUR PURE CONSCIOUSNESS!

Every moment you spent in discovering your consciousness, you used that moment in your life. Every moment you didn't spend on this goal, you wasted those moments in your life. I will give you one small tip: Whenever you are able to think and intranalyze, with the goal of reaching your Source, all those moments are meditation! Even if your thinking looks very confusing!

This is consciousness declaring about itself! This is God introducing Himself! Who is the source of the whole Cosmos is introducing Himself.

I tell you, discovering the consciousness is the one and only purpose of life.

Whether life puts you in heaven or life puts you in hell, the only message life wants to send you is: DISCOVER YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS!

Whether it gives you whatever you want and keeps you in the highest pedestal of the world, society, money, wealth, power, name, fame, and everything is offered to you, life is sending you the message: DISCOVER YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS WHICH IS BEYOND ALL THESE!

If you are tortured, pushed into poverty, no food, disease, no medical care, you are literally stinking and dying every moment, life is sending you the message:

DISCOVER YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS! THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE RID OF THIS!

Understand, whether you are showered everything or tortured every moment, the one and only message life is sending to you is: DISCOVER YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS!

Suddenly the fear about death will disappear, and the mysteries of death will be revealed in front of you.

You will simply know the whole thing, and you are experientially liberated from the fear of death, and any powerlessness related to death.

Each thought current is experiential. Each thought current, will transform not just, your psychology, but also your very biology.

The very YOU in your muscle memory and bio-memory. Each of these thought currents, when you entertain them, when you cherish them, when you celebrate them, your very biology changes.

If you create suffering for yourself with your confusion, wrong analysis, and depression, and pick up any of the thought currents you will be free from your depression.

Somebody asked me, ‘Human beings are just developed monkeys, but how are we able to perceive so much about the universe, planets, and space? How we are able to understand so much about all this? Why are other animals, even the closest version of us, chimpanzees, not able to catch, and understand things about the Universe.

Why are human beings able to understand, perceive, and even manipulate, as we want?

Already we have space stations, some of the asteroids coming towards planet earth we can blast it or redirect it from there itself. Already we are able to manipulate movements in space. How?’

Only human beings started asking the question, by whom? The first thought current: Who am I? The second thought current: What happens after death? The third thought current: What is the source of all this? What happens after death? These thought currents were kept alive in humanity.

If you go thinking and contemplating, you will awaken the thought current of seeking which gives you 10,000 answers, and 20,000 questions, or 10,000 questions and 20,000 answers.

When you develop a thought current it may give you thousands of experiences, answers, and questions. The thought current will upgrade the very way you exist. It is like taking vitamins and proteins. The very way you work out and exercise will be upgraded.

Sitting and contemplating on them. Spending time with the thought currents. Not just mechanically memorizing or mechanically The thought current of death, you should sit and romance with it. When you romance with death, He doesn't appear with the big moustache, He comes with a clean-shaven face as Shiva. He is no more here to take away things from you, He is here to just upgrade your very frequency.

Death is the greatest giver, because he has stolen so much from all others. Death is the richest fellow, because he has stolen so much from so many people! His treasury is too big, much bigger than Kuberas (Lord of wealth). Because he has stolen even from Kubera! Kubera is also under Death.

Your inner chattering itself will be transformed into a long beautiful seeking and prayer.

For the whole day what is the thought current with which you are romancing, that will be the frequency of you.

When you become more and more unconscious, you need to be controlled with dos and don'ts. Don't stoop to that level where I have to give you do's and don'ts. If you make me give do's and don'ts that is the worst disrespect you can do to me. If you make me give you only the thought currents, that is the greatest worship you can do to me.

If you make me only give thought currents, you are treating me as a Guru. If you force me to give do's and don'ts you are making me as your boss, manager. I am not interested in becoming boss or big boss. I am very happy with this seat of Guru.

Seek the source of the whole. Keep that thought current alive in you. Romance with that thought current, don't memorize it or repeat it. I am not asking you to think, contemplate, and meditate on this thought current. I am asking you to romance with this thought current: What is it? What must be the Source? Not just because I said, but sincerely trying to catch the answer.

Until that experience comes, continue your journey of romancing with these thought currents. Romancing with the different thought currents raises your frequency of Existence.

Mind can be lost immediately, but you can make another one.

Anything can be lost, but you can get it back. Not seeking, because seeking is not something to do with the mind, it is something to do with your very Consciousness.

Seeking is the love letter from your beloved who is living in your heart forever. If you miss that, you may have to wait forever and ever to get the second letter.

Seeking is a message from your Beloved who is residing in your heart forever.

Constantly keeping your inner quest alive, keeping the basic questions alive, until they become experiential answers, not intellectual, but experiential answers.

What am I doing? Everyday what am I doing? What am I doing is it exactly moving me, pushing me towards where I am supposed to reach? Where am I going? Where am I heading?

Only with the Seeking if you function, you will be fuelled from the right Source. Your fear should not fuel you. Your greed should not fuel you. You should not work out of fear and greed. That does not mean you should not work.

Drop the fear and greed, not the work. Seeking should be the energy source. If you make the seeking as the energy source from morning till night for your thinking and planning, even in the night you won't fall asleep. You will only fall into the space of Turiya [fourth state of consciousness] and wake up.

When you are initiated there is only one path for you. Now you need only perseverance in that path. But from an enlightened beings side, I can't say there is only one path. There are millions of paths.

The big confusion is sometimes the individual seeker thinks there are millions of paths, and he starts jumping here and there, and without perseverance on one path, he starts jumping here and there. So he never achieves, he loses. That should not happen.

On the other end the Master tries to tell you there is only one path, nothing else. Then the whole follower group becomes fanatic. That is the other danger.

Only by understanding can you can avoid both dangers. From your side you should know there is only one path, from my side I should tell you there are millions of paths. The truth is there are millions of paths, but the fact for you is there is only one path.

The path which you are initiated or pick up, is the only path for you. Go with it. But the expounder cannot say there is nothing else.

Expounder should know the truth: there are millions of paths. Expounder cannot even justify saying that ‘oh, if I say there are millions of path, disciples don’t have perseverance on one path they are initiated, they jump here and there.’

It is your responsibility to make the disciple understand there are millions of paths, but forget about all others, and pick up this one and practice. If he has given that understanding to the disciples, they will travel in their path, but they will know very clearly there are other paths also. Knowing there are some more paths may help the disciple not be fanatic or terrorist or violent towards others. I cannot go and kill somebody who is travelling in some other path.

Teachings are given for different spectrums of consciousness. For example the man who has never started even the good actions, he should be taught good actions, but that is not the ultimate. He needs to know that you need to go beyond even good actions. Good and bad need to be crossed.

For the seeker who has practised meditation, the Guru may give the initiation of unclothing from all actions. So the disciple will follow one path that they have chosen or been initiated by the Guru, yet at the same time understand that there are many paths.
