Suchlike innocent ones as we are cannot face the cruelty of the negative power
So my dear, I am pleased to be among you, (the) very nice ones. // If there is an ornament of gold fitted with jewels, only a jeweller will be able to know (its value); shepherds will not be able to know the value of that ornament. // Now we, as soul, are of the same essence as that of God. // But mind and intellect and any person in this world cannot understand (that) you are great, you are God, you belong to God and how great, wonderful, and valuable you are. // If you ask God, then He will tell you how great man is. // Then He will say that, "I have made man in my own pattern, in my own image. Rather I have given him even much more than I have got for myself. // If anyone has to see me and to know me, then he should see his own self as a human being and know his own self. Then he will come to know everything." //
In the scriptures, especially in the Indian mythology, it has been stressed that, "He who has found his soul has found everything, and he who has known his soul has known everything. There is nothing more to be known and nothing more to be found. One is perfect in knowledge and all acquisition." // All those good things and the knowledge of the good things which are there from God cannot be known at the level of body, mind, and intellect. // Whatever we may train mind and intellect for, they can only know something of the material of this earth which is lifeless, which is dead material. //
Material which is lifeless - may it be gold, jewels or diamonds - still is of no use. // If you are somewhere in this world and there are all mountains of gold, silver and jewels, what will you do with this? // If you are hungry, they will not serve your purpose. If you are thirsty, they will not serve your purpose. If you are feeling hot or cold, these are of no use. // We have given these materials or matters, being rare in availability, some value but they have not got any real value because anything which is dead material is not having any value or usefulness. // God has not allowed that we may live in this material body or have friendship with other material bodies or to live in these houses made of material. // He gave (us) His own self as His family and He gave (us) His own kingdom which is all life, which is all activity, all working and has every kind of consciousness. If you ask (for something), it will work for you in every way. //
If a king enters his palaces, everything of the palace is at the service of the king from the services of his servants. // If you enter the kingdom of God, there are no servants but everything of the kingdom of God is at your beck and call. // Everything of this world, of material, will also be obeying us because we have got control. (We are able) not only to control the lifestyle but also the dead material. // This material, which has no visible consciousness, looks totally dead but it is not, there is life in it. // Scientists have also found that any metal, any stone, earth, or other dead material - all these are made of atoms. // In all atoms there are some spheres. At the center is the neutron and there are electrons which are active, moving. There is light, there is sound, and there is life in them. // When we come in contact with the controlling power of the light and sound of God, then each electron, each atom of the existence of God is there under our control. //
This is the life which is there in the kingdom of God - how great, how wonderful it is over there. // If you feel that there should be an enclosure, there will be an enclosure. If you feel like going through it, the wall will give way to you. // Any change can also be possible over there because we have full control on everything there. // Our thought impressions go in each cell of that existence, and they will obey as per our orders (in) thought. // This can be (called) a life of perfection. Everything is as per our disposal. If there is anything on which we have to work, then that is not included in our perfection. // You can be as small as a vitamin and you can be as big as all the creation included in you. // You have control on everything.
My Master also used to say that, "You are the child of that great Father God who created all these limitless and numberless horizons just in the time of the twinkling of an eye. // If He could do such wonders and wonders, then cannot you, being His child, (made) of the same essence as God, make just a small world which is there with us, on which we are living?" // He was meaning to say that, "Why are you so weak, so meek, and so little when you have been blessed by God (to be) so great, so wonderful, so competent?" // But you know very well that if a stone is lying somewhere and you ask the stone to do something, it will never be possible, it will remain a stone lying actionless over there. // Similar is the existence of our physical body, (which) is also material. Mind and intellect also do not have this power because they do not belong to that creator principle of God, (but) are also of a lower existence. //
What have we made? We have made something and we are proud of that. We have achieved so many benefits out of that. But whereas they are of some usefulness, there is a great responsibility and work that we are to perform on them so that they are maintained properly and we can get work out of them. // If there are merits, there are also demerits of all the things we have made. // Let us take the example of a car. We enjoy a ride in a car, // but you know that when you buy a car, a big amount is to be paid. // When the car is out of the showroom, then you will have to put some gasoline in it and you will have to drive it. // You will have to learn how to drive, and you will also have to get a driver's license. // You also need some roads on which you can drive your car. // You will have to go through so much legal red tape and only then you will be able to drive a car and it will still need regular maintenance. // So it is not really enjoyable to have a ride in a car; there are so many expenses. Not everybody can maintain a car due to the expenses. // Perhaps its usefulness may not be as much as its maintenance costs and also the capital (needed for it). // It will not really be working automatically; you will have to drive it and you will have to be very vigilant. //
But when you work as soul in the kingdom of God, then everything of this world will also obey you. You are here and you think (of a place where you want to go) and you are somewhere else. // You disappear at one place, then you appear at another place and begin to work over there. // There are suchlike yogas where you can achieve such accomplishments. Otherwise, naturally God has not allowed us to show any kind of miracles over here on this earthplane // because it is not allowed and you will have to pay a very high (price for doing that). // The Masters generally say that, "Live over here like a poor person just with the least consumption from this world." // If you have millions of dollars and you can live on one dollar, only live with one dollar and all the others out of that million you may just use in the mission of the Master and of God // because this one dollar which you have used is also not allowed for us to own. Everything is owned by the negative power. // We may have earned everything we use in this world by the sweat of our body, but they do not belong to us and we will have to pay the negative power for them. //
The negative power is negative and cruel to us. There is no reason, no justification (for the) rules and regulations it has made. It has made (them) in any way to torture us, to keep us slaves, and to keep us always really suffering in her own control. // This law of karma, law of action and reaction, is only working and existing where the negative power is ruling. // These laws have also been made because the negative power has its own feeling to control us, to disturb us. // This law of karma is only applicable to human beings, not to any other species of life // because all the other species of life are already working under its control and they will not manage anything to get rid of its control. // It is only the human being who has got this chance to get rid of the control of the negative power and to join the kingdom of God and to enjoy God. // It is only due to the mercy, forgiveness, and grace of God that we are saved from the control and the clutches of the negative power. Otherwise there are no ways and means to get rid of this control. //
(To) any person who comes into this world some kind of karmas is added from the (stock of the negative power). // Let it be that when these first three regions came into existence due to the mental set-up, then what kind of karma had all those human beings, who came into existence, done in the past (to make them) live a life of tortures or of enjoyments? // Unluckily we are very much, very horribly under the control of this cruel one. // We may do some good or bad karma - we have to do something - but with all these good or bad (karmas) we are to be slaves under the control of the negative power. // If the God power, the Master power which is working through the Master doesn't use its supernatural powers, we would never be released of this slavery. //
That is why when the Master initiates somebody, first he burns away all the big stock of karmas which had been accumulated by man under the arrangement of the negative power - // may it be good karmas, may it be bad karmas. // The destiny which is also there is also mitigated in its hardness, and till the end of the life all these destiny karmas are arranged to be paid off. // New seed karmas which we also have to do are not done under the control of the negative power but under the control of God. // When we are meditating, then the meditations on light and sound clean away all the effect of the seed karmas which we do daily. // Master arranges that when the destined time is there for the soul to leave the human body and to be released, no karma is left in the accounts of that person from the negative power. // Some very hard, unbearable karmas are sometimes borne also by the Master himself // which otherwise the human being would not have been able to bear. //
With this great sympathetic power of God we are forgiven (for) everything (we have done), and with mercy and grace we are saved. This is the only way that we can be saved and can go back to our Father and our own kingdom, and never we are to come back again to suffer. // God knows and the Master who comes also knows what great cruelty is being done upon the human beings, and they arrange to protect the human being from this very, very horrible onslaught of the negative power. // Otherwise there is no reason for us to be kept over here in suchlike condition which becomes unbearable most of the time. //
My Master used to give an example. There was a lamb which was drinking water at a river. // A lion came over there and also started to drink water. // The lion wanted to devour the lamb. // He tried to find some excuse. // He growled at the lamb, "Why are you making the water muddy which comes to me?" // The lamb humbly replied, "My dear uncle, the water is coming down from you towards me." // Then the lion was a little dumbfounded and had to choose another excuse to devour the lamb. // He said, "You are very horrible. You don't know etiquette - how to speak with some elderly one. // I remember very well (that) last year you abused me also." // Then the lamp replied very humbly, "I am only six months old. I was not born one year back." // Then the lion thought, "What should I do now?" // Then he told, "My dear, maybe you were not there (but) then it must have been your father or your mother." // He did not wait for the lamb's reply, jumped on it, and did devour it with this excuse. //
So my dear, we are really very, very innocent ones and suchlike innocent ones as we are cannot face the cruelty of the negative power. // It is only the God power and the Master power who is there who is sufficiently strong and is having all the control and the knowledge to work against the negative power. // That (is what) we (will) have to find if we are to be saved, if we are to be protected. //
In the spiritual history of India (it is written that) a long time ago there was a king who was also a saint at that time. // With his royal arrangements he could really flourish the message of God at large to humanity. // There were so many, so many people who could be reconnected to God and were saved from the cruelty of the negative power. // After having done this lifelong, wonderful duty, he was to go back. // When the arrangements were made for him to go back, there was a thought in his heart that all the souls which are in hells suffer for long, long times, and there is nobody who goes over there or who went over there to help them. // He felt that he should go and help those souls so that they are not to suffer anymore. They have already suffered very much. //
The Master knows that it is not the fault of all the souls who are suffering in hells or in any other ways in this world, (but) it is something imposed upon them. // All these souls are not suffering in the hells due to their fault, but it is all the control of the negative power that compelled them to do something wrong and they were then ordered to suffer hells. // It is a fact that the human being is totally innocent. // But when God is not there, Master is not there to help and guide them, then the negative power is there to control them. // (It) gets suchlike actions done from the human beings that all the hells are full and the lower hells which we call "heavens" are also full. //
Therefore this saintly person felt that, "Why should all the people who are suffering in these hells due to their own innocence (and) not because they have some fault suffer? I should try to take them out." // So the judge who had come to take the soul of that saint, the Master, was ordered by the Master to take him to the hells. // Then the judge was very cunning or clever and said, "My dear, nobody has gone to the hells up till now. What are you to do there? // You have done a very, very wonderful job in this world and that is more than sufficient, (more than what was) expected of you." // The judge knew that the saints are very soft-hearted and whenever they find somebody suffering, they will not move further till all those sufferers are taken away. // Now the saintly person was also knowing about the tactics this judge was using. // He replied a little sternly, "My dear, I have told you to do something. I have not asked you for any arguments." // However, the judge then had to arrange that his carrier was taken over to the hells. //
In hells there was all hue and cry, all unbearable and unbearable (situation). // This saintly person, the Master, could not bear it and he called the judge, "I want all these hells to be vacated and and all these souls to be sent to some higher regions where they are not to suffer like this." // Now the judge was already expecting this saintly person to create a problem for him when he would go to the hells and it happened like that. // The judge was also very intelligent. He humbly replied, "My dear Master, you are right. I will have to obey whatever you ask me, // but all that I am doing is as per rule that those who have done some heinous sins are to be punished and those who are virtuous are to be given some good places. What is the difference between the actions of good and bad persons if there is no discrimination in their fruits?" // Then the Master replied, "My dear, I know what is the fault of these people and what is the cause of their actions. They are totally innocent and they have been compelled to do something. Certain circumstances have been pushed upon them (so) that they had to do some sinful actions." //
Man is not the doer in this world. There are two powers: one is the God power which will do everything good for man, and there is another - the negative power - which works in the absence of God and will only push man towards the way of destruction. //
(The Master continued:) "So these innocent souls are not to suffer any further. As I have ordered, you are to shift them to some better place so that they are not to suffer here." // Now this point of the advocacy of the judge could not work. // Then he put (forward) another point: "All these souls are so dirty, so horrible that if they are sent to heavens, they will also change the heavens into hells, // and the enjoyment of those people who are enjoying over there in heavens will also be lost due to these people." // Then the saintly person asked, "How will you clean them (so) that they are taken out of these hells?" // The judge said, "All this punishment will be given to them. With this punishment, all their karmas will be paid off. It may take one million, two million, or three million years until they are free." // In those regions the time factor is much bigger. As we say, "Let us wait for one, two, or three minutes", in the same way they say, "Let us wait for one million, two million, or three million years." // The saintly person answered, "What you have proposed is not acceptable to me, // but what you say (is true). If they are sent out and they are dirty, they will really create some problem wherever they go." // Then he told, "Now I will clean them."
Then the Master sat in meditation for a span of time which is a standard in India and is equal to 24 minutes. // Then he handed over the fruit of those 24 minutes of meditation to the judge (and said), "Let as many souls as can be cleaned with this fruit be free, and if there are some more (souls) left over (in the hells), tell me and I will arrange (for) something more." // After some time after having acted according to the instructions of the Master, the judge came back. // With a very, very broken heart, he could only say, "My dear Master, all hells have been vacated. // These 24 minutes of your meditation have really worked and still some is left behind which is at your credit." // Then Master was really happy that he was able to release these innocent souls from the clutches of the negative power and of these endless sufferings. // Then he was ready to proceed further. Then the judge was humbly requesting, "My dear, all these souls have been benefited by you but you have destroyed me. // My kingdom is no more. What will I do here now?" // That was (in) the Golden Age. The Master told (him), "Don't worry. The Iron Age will be coming (when) all will be your populace // because (then) nobody will accept the Master, everybody will accept the ruling of the negative power, // (and) the Masters will roam about in this world but nobody will listen, nobody will accept (what they say)." //
This is going on (now). You can see it also. // My Master travelled so much (and) worked so hard, my Grand-Master worked so much and so hard, and I am also doing my utmost but with very nominal results. // All those masters, who have been raised by the negative power to work for it, are flourishing, enjoying, and are having a very good response from the public. // So this is the trend and the situation of this Iron Age which is very hard, very hard for the innocent souls of God. // No doubt, Master also suffers over here but still he comes from God and goes back to God. He only suffers for some time as long as he is here or (as long as) all initiates or all souls who have been initiated by him are taken back to the abode of God. // The Master's duty doesn't end when he leaves his physical body; his duty is still continuing. The Master has to go on working for and helping each soul which is initiated by him and is not (yet) taken back to his kingdom. // This may take a very long time, maybe centuries, (which) the Master will have to suffer with them. // But Master accepts his sufferings because if with the suffering of one person, one million persons are released, he accepts to suffer for that million. //
So you are really very dear souls of God, and Master really loves all of you but you do not know how much God loves you and how much Master loves you. // From the very beginning the (Master's) heart is made by God like this. //
In the life of my Master, something was written and sometimes he was also telling his own story. // He had read a book of a saint named Ramanuj. // He went to his Master and was initiated. // He was already working to teach good lessons to humanity. // He was already respected and honoured by so many people. // After having been initiated, he was told by the Master as per instructions, "You are not to tell the words of simran and you are not to tell (anybody) your inner experiences of the holy light and sound (that) you have found or will find." // After having got all these instructions and after having been initiated, he came back (home) and collected all the people he knew. // Those were about one thousand. // Then he started to tell all these words of simran and all those instructions how to come in contact with the holy light and sound, // although it was all contrary to the instructions of the Master. //
Luckily one fellow initiate was there who jumped forward (and said), "What wrong things are you doing against the instructions of the Master! // Don't you remember that Master has denied anybody to do these things? Don't you also know what will be the consequences?" // Ramanuj replied, "I understand, I know, I remember what Master has told me." // Another friend of his asked, "Do you know what will happen to you?" // Then Ramanuj asked, "You may tell me what will happen to me." // His friend answered, "He, who is doing anything opposite to the instructions of the Master (and) violates his rules and regulations, will have to go to hells." // Then Ramanuj asked a question: "How many will go with me? Will only I (have to) go or some others, too?" // The reply was: "My dear, all those false masters who violate the rules and regulations and instructions of the Masters or God will (not only) go to hells themselves but all their initiates also will suffer with them // because the master himself is not connected with God and the kingdom of God, (but) is only connected with the negative power. So what about his disciples? They will also be connected with the negative power." // Then that saint, Ramanuj, was a little considering what he was doing wrong. // Then he told, "If I alone had gone to hells and all these would have been saved, I would have accepted it. // But if all these souls whom I initiate are to follow me and also to suffer the hells, then I am not ready to do anything against the instructions of the Master." //
So the Masters have really got a very soft heart because their hearts are prepared through so many practices and disciplines (done by them) in their previous lives which took a long time. // The people do not know this and cannot understand it. They just go on (saying), "The Master was very great and Master is great but we cannot (be like this)." // But as I have also appointed so many people to work as initiating representatives, they are also supposed to do something at their own level so that they may be able to justify the position given to them. //
If there is someone who is to work as a doctor, he will have to be educated, trained, and well-experienced to be a successful doctor. For that, he will have to work very hard for some years. // So this work which you are doing and all those who are initiated have to do, are expected to do, (is that) they are to rise up to the kingdom of God and come in contact with God. Then they will be able to help themselves and also really help humanity at large. // Then you are really fully perfect. All other things which people have got - some talents, trainings, or educations - you will have all (these) in you. // When you become perfect, then you are a doctor, you are an engineer, you are a lawyer, you are a judge, you are a king, you are an emperor. Everything that is there in anybody is included in you. //
Everybody has been given this authority to attain this great power, to live with this greatness, and also to keep this greatness always. // With this lifestyle which has been given to you by Master, you are great here in this world and you are really great in the kingdom of God forever, for eternity. // If you are allowed to go into the kingdom of God, why are you living this very horrible, dirty life in this dirty drain? // What is the position of this world in the creation of Lord God? It is just a disposal system, a dirty drain in which we are like worms. // But some of the worms have been selected by the sympathetic God power, have been fitted with wings, and can fly up to the highest heights of the kingdom of God and God. // This is applicable upon you. If there are suchlike fortunate ones, it is you. // All humanity can be given this power to come out of this physical body and this world as soul, to enter into the kingdom of God, and to fly up to the highest position of the eighth plane. // The eighth plane is really your destination. You will go there. Master will arrange (it). As he is there, you will also be there. //
There are some people as yet living in this body who have already reached the eighth plane. // So many others are being prepared. // But I feel that you should also offer (yourself) for this purpose (so that) you may also reach this noble destination during this life. // If you are given something here, you will believe it and other people will also believe in you. You will be working as an example for them. //
Nobody knows what happens after death. Nobody can feel what happened to a good man or what happened to a sinner. // What happens after death and is given after death has been kept secret, and the negative power has arranged that nobody is to know the consequences of being a good or a bad person. // When they do not see any consequences here and generally find that all sinners, dacoits, and robbers, etc. are really enjoying and those who are good persons are suffering, then the opposite effect is there upon the general populace. // This is the reason why vice is increasing so much, (and) why illegal, foul ways and means are being adopted by almost all the people. // (It is) because people adopting such ways and means are really enjoying and happy, and those who are good are suffering. Therefore there is a natural propagation for vice. //
No doubt, all of you are reserved for the eighth plane and all will go (there), but why not now here in this world? // I have found some people who are working (for it). They will successfully reach this highest state of life. They will work here in this world with their own authority and the people of this world will see what is the greatness of the meditations. // This will only happen when the negative power is (brought) down and God power is ruling. // Then really those people who are connected with the light and sound of God will rule, will relish, and will enjoy, and all people will feel like following them // because our mind really believes when it sees something good ready in front of it. // But when something is given on credit (and we are told), "You will find something, you will enjoy something, (and) you will find it after death", then our mind doesn't believe. //
So my dear, try to live as the army of God to represent God and work for God and become God. // If we can become (God) today, it is much better, otherwise maybe tomorrow. // If not tomorrow, let it be the day after tomorrow or the following day or the day after that,... [Master laughs] // But (do) not (take) till eternity (for this) // - maybe till the end of this year at the most. // So make your schedule, which may be some days a little plus or minus. // When we have to travel, we say, "It is a two hours' journey". In these two hours you may take five minutes more or five minutes less. // But work upon it sincerely and ask the Master for help. Then you will surely succeed. //
You may also go on with your worldly duties but this holy duty of light and sound and to find God, that is to be the top priority and the top anxiety. // Don't worry that the worldly lifestyle will suffer if you begin to work for the mission of God or for the meditations. My Master used to say that, "If you do the one work which I have given you, I will do a hundred jobs for you in this world." // This is applicable to all true Masters (who lived) in any time that the Master is responsible for all your inner and outer lifestyle. //
In India there was a Master. A small boy came to him. The Master asked him, "My dear boy, why have you come (here)?" // "Okay," the boy replied, "I have come to offer myself to you." // Then Master replied, "Okay, if you offer yourself to me, I offer myself to you." // This is the business which is there between your devotion and love for the Master and Master's love for you. // What are we? What can we give to the Master? We are already garbage. // Offer it to him and get rid of it. // What is the Master? He is God. When he has offered himself to you, then he has offered his kingdom and his God self to you. // I think this is a good business if you enter into it. // Will you like (it)? // Show your hands please. [Laughter. Master laughs, too.] // Okay. [The translator says, "Master, a lot of garbage for you!"] Thank you. // Now please be ready for the meditations.
