Maduray
is divine blessing or the fifth Pursharth
01.12.03
Kanpur (introduction)
Mahesh
says: In my school books, I have always drawn the picture from Dr. Maya (my
wife), with the earrings, as she still has them today. And I also knew the name,
Maya. When a girl friend’s name was Maya, I was attracted by her name only.
But then, an inner voice told me: "No, she is not the right person.” That
is intuition.
I give
you this personal example. The story is in front of you, so that you gain
confidence on your spiritual way. These are no words that refer to ego. This way
I only want to strengthen your faith and your confidence. That is no miracle. If
you practice, you will get there.
If you
compare yourself to a Saint, like Swami Rama, you will stop practicing. You
shall not stop your practice, you should go on practicing.
You
should go on practicing. You are in the right way. Like this you develop
forgiveness, friendliness, devotion and compassion. You surrender to the highest
divinity, just like Christ did.
I am not
saying you should leave Christianity, no, why? There is absolutely no reason to
do so.
It is
necessary that you heal yourself and that you clean your consciousness. The soul
is pure. Nobody can clean his soul.
It is
wrong to say: "Clean your soul."
You must
clean your shape, your clothes, with love, sympathy, forgiveness, friendliness
and non - violence and you must overcome your desires.
You have
to overcome this thought of collection.
You
shall not steal. If you stop your thought of collection, your heart will be
clean automatically.
When the
heart has been cleaned God is happy, because God is there.
Just
imagine, you collect dirt, bad things and bad thoughts in God`s house.
With every bad thought you bring dirtiness into God’s house.
I am not
saying you should practice something incredibly difficult. You should not
practice for nine hours, as my master did, no, no.
My
master doesn't tell me that I should tell you such things. You should clean
yourself only in a simple way.
You
should do what you can do without problems.
This
means that you do your work with another attitude. If a beautiful girl, a
beautiful human being comes, see God in him.
If you
see Him in all of them, how much more beauty is that? You should not be attached
to much to this person.
If the
person is so beautiful, how much more beautifully is God?
That is
a step of development. You don’t stop there. That doesn't mean if you see a
beautiful girl, you go to her and say: "Let’s have a cup of tea
together." I don't say this. Take this as a step. Nature is wonderful. See
how wonderful nature is.
And how
much more beauty is in God! Realize his beauty! Don't get involved in the beauty
of the objects of the world. Take this as a first step.
Nobody
has explained these simple things. I give you quite simple techniques, to clean
your heart, to feel God's presence, to raise your mind in God's love.
But
always keep in mind; you won't discuss these things with people, who don't
accept LIGHT. Otherwise they will create obstacles for you. They will give you
wrong comments, and they will disturb you.
If your
heart is pure, you will have the power; you will only think, and the other will
change himself, though you say nothing.
It looks
like this: He will come to you and he will say: "Please give me something
that I will get peace. I am very much worried. And people will come
automatically. Since my student time, people came to me, who where so much
worried. Boys, young girls and women came for help and I gave them advice. And
still I am giving advice to so many girls from the IIT (TU - Kanpur), when they
are worried. Sometimes, I touch only their hair and I say: "Go, you are in
OK."
I
can’t tell how Swami Rama took care of me.
I give
you quite simple techniques for the spiritual way only, and so you get higher,
higher and higher every moment. If sugar is there, the ants will come.
If
incredibly big love is there, you will see how people will come in order to you
to get peace. You need not say anything at all, their consciousness will tell
them. They don't know, why they come, but they will come.
This is
a long way. There is the way of alcohol, the way of sex, the way of money, the
way to have a good house, the way to become a politician, the way to become a
high official. You can gain all this, but that’s not the aim of life.
People
used to ask: "How can I gain the aim in this life? What about this life? A
mortal speaks. What about this life? What is on this day? Life is like one day.
One next day with new clothes will come.
The word
death does not exist. In my diary, there is no such word. You must teach this
the whole world. There is no death. If you have the thought of death, you
can’t follow the spiritual way.
You must
get rid of this thought of death. That is the first task of the teacher. There
is no death!
Three
things are important:
1. God
2. Your
soul and
3. Maya
the illusion, the power of God, Maya and illusion are the same.
Mahesh
says an example what Maya means: "If government gives a command to the
army, go there and do this work."
This
command is like energy.
There is
no other force. Creation works!
In the
SANATAN philosophy the name for creation is Prakriti.
(The
Sanatan philosophy is the historic forerunner of the Hindu philosophy and exists
since primeval times.)
Hindus
are people, who live next to the Hindukusch. The name Hindu is of geographical
origin.
What is
that, what works? All that works is called BINDHU!
BINDHU
is that what is performed by command.
If the
king gives a command to the army to go and help the people, who suffered from
catastrophe, they will do this, because the king said so.
And then
they will go and help the people of the earthquake or the flood victims. This
way it works.
This way
God's power and Maya go together that’s illusion. If no command is there, Maya
is finished, nothing is left. But soul is still there, as long as it is God’s
will. Soul is called Purusha.
According
to His wish, we were made by Him and Maya was created.
God was
alone. He had no sister, no father and no brother. He thought:
"I
want to turn into many"!
This way
the creation was formed.
Thoughts
are power. So, the universe was made. How can your soul arise without God's
thought?
An
example: You make one million clay pots. In each pot is space. God is
everywhere, just as water is everywhere in the oceans. If you put water in a
clay pot and put the clay pot into the ocean, the clay pot is in the ocean and
the water in the clay pot. If you break the clay pot, the water in the clay pot
has turned into water of the ocean.
By only
your spiritual practice, you cannot break the pot.
Even
"Maya“ cannot break the pot, as Maya follows His commands.
Only
love can break the pot, love, love.
You can
get near to God, but you can’t reach Him, if he doesn’t want to meet you.
The
highest state is Brahman. That means a state of mind like Brahman. But you will
not turn into Brahman. You are very close to God, but there is still a thin
curtain. If God takes away this curtain, then you are Him and you are ready, you
arrived at your aim.
The same
picture:
"If
you break the clay pot in the ocean, you are ocean."
The
Indian Saints say: "Why should I break the pot? Why should I not enjoy the
beauty of God? Why should I not enjoy Him?
That is
the fifth PURSHARTH. About this I will talk tomorrow.
The
fifth PURSHARTH = "divine blessing"
02.12.2003
Kanpur
There
are 5 PURSHARTHS:
1.
DARMA, speak: Darm,
2.
ARTHA, speak: Arth,
3. KAMA,
speak: Kam,
4.
MOKASH, speak: Moksch,
5.
MADURAY (divine blessing) of LORD KRISHNA. The highest power is divided into
three parts: a) Brahm, b) Paratman. c) Bhagwan. If you want to name the form
here, you can only say Lord Krishna. He was born 5.000 years ago for the first
time. Therefore it is said in the Bhagavad Gita, these are God’s words. These
words were not written by just anyone. These words are authorized by God
himself! It is the first and last time that a spiritual book was written
directly by God.
Only in
the Bhagavad Gita, it is said: "These are words of God."
Normally,
you find in the books of the Hindu philosophy only 4 PURSHARTHS.
The
fifth PURSHARTH is not declared.
Here a
true example: As Guru Nanak saw God's beauty, he called out his master`s name:
"Wak",
in respect for his master. The Six use this "Wak" as mantra. There
"Wak" is used as mantra. In reality however, it is not a mantra. That
was his expression as he saw God's beauty, just imagine: "You see a
beautiful human being, a beautiful boy, a beautiful child, a beautiful woman, a
beautiful building, just as the Taj Mahal, then you will be amazed. If you see
the Taj Mahal with full moon, it looks as if something had come from heaven and
would not stay, as if it would leave again. When I saw the Taj Mahal for the
first time at full moon, I was amazed!
Have in
mind, whatever beauty is in the whole universe, all this is the smallest part of
this illusory world. One cannot imagine all this.
Maya
cannot support the intellect up to that state that one can see God's beauty.
Only God can give you that power, nobody else can do it.
He gave
this power to Arjuna only. God appeared before him as a warrior, not in His full
beauty. He had shown him that the whole creation is moving in His body.
I
explain this to you in a simple way: There are pores in your skin, they allow
the air exchange. Just imagine simultaneously the big body, the universe of God
and the planets are moving. The whole creation is in His body and He is still
beyond the creation.
If you
give yourself into the master’s hands, you should realize that you don't act.
You should internalize this thought!
You
should think: "God gave this task to me, I am his servant and I do it.
In order
not to confuse you, I say a few words about the fifth PURSHARTH.
People
are after luxury, enjoyments, joy and blessing. You can’t see blessing, but
blessing is the real goal. That is what people long for from the bottom of their
heart. They find this blessing nowhere else. You cannot find this blessing
anywhere in the whole creation because no one can give this to you.
The most
inner part of your soul knows this. Your inner consciousness knows this.
Whatever you give to the unconscious mind, it reacts according to it.
For a
few days, a few moments you enjoy this, and then you think again: This is
nothing. And then again you look for the next beauty and you think for
enjoyments, joy and luxury. And so life goes by.
God
explained this and informed us about it. Once the biggest hunger, that biggest
thirst of a human being is nursed, why should I be content with something
inferior?
MOKASH
is also a place, where you must not be born-again. But you won't reach this
state full of joy there, even if you will have no problems and sorrow. But this
hunger for joy and blessing will not be fulfilled in Mokash.
If there
are 5 Pursharths, one should try MADURAY, this state of God, who is full of
divine nectar and blessing, which is beyond the capacity of the human intellect.
MADURAY
is a state full of God's blessing.
If one
has reached MADURAY, the fifth state, then your quest for luck will be fulfilled
and the soul will see God's form. You will not merge into God, but you will
enjoy seeing God.
Vedas
say:
"You
are born in order to enjoy God's grace."
So, the
fifth Pursharth is recommended to all, who want to quench the thirst for
blessing and luck.
You have
to cross this state of Mokash. You must go to MADURAY, the fifth Pursharth. In
Mokash, you won't become God. You will not enjoy that state though you are
beyond birth and rebirth. But you will not enjoy the beauty and grace of God,
which is the strongest wish of every creature.
Mahesh
asks: Is that clearly or not? Have you any question, concerning the fifth
Pursharth, because normally that is not described in books.
There is
a question: When I have reached Mokash, am I no longer on earth?
Mahesh
says: You just ignore Mokash. Look: You buy a ticket to Delhi (5. Pursharth),
then, you drive till Delhi and don't get off before! And then you are there, OK?
If you ask for a ticket to Delhi, that is the 5. Pursharth, MADURAY. How can you
then get to Mokash? You simply go to the fifth state, because God gave you free
choice.
In this
world as well as in the divine world you have free choice! That is your own
world. The only difference is: Maduray belongs to you and this here (the world)
does not belong to you.
Therefore,
after death you have to leave your body like a hotel. This world is like a
hotel.
God’s
house is your true house.
This
here is not your true house. That is the truth. And there you have to pay
nothing. This is your father's house, your own house.
There is
one thing about it:
If you
didn't reach MADURAY, you lose your identity.
But once
you have reached MADURAY, your identity will remain. Only then, you are able to
enjoy the situation. How can you enjoy without identity?
The
fifth Pursharth will give you PEACE. The word PEACE is very important. Peace
doesn't mean that there are no problems, no sound, no worries, no fear, no
sorrow, no that is not peace.
Peace is
the highest state where you reach a point, in which nothing is needed. And
without anything, you feel grace, total satisfaction, you have no wishes, you
need nothing. You are surrounded by divine blessing only.
If you
think, that something should be explained about MADURAY, then you may ask,
because this is described nowhere.
There is
the question: In order to reach this state, we have to give up our EGO?
Mahesh
answers: Listen:
Between
God and you, the biggest obstacle is your own Ego: My! I!
I give
you a rough example:
When two
people love each other, and when they sit together, they simply forget the time,
each other and everything. They only have eyes for each other. When you see the
highest beauty, the most beautiful nectar, you cannot explain this. There are no
words for it. Language cannot express this. There is no language which can
express this happiness and this blessing. If you see this, you will forget
everything. You cannot reach this state as long as you haven’t totally
surrendered to God.
When ego
and “I” are there a poet wrote the following poem:
The path
of love is so narrow that two people cannot walk side by side.
You have
to be totally without “I”. When “I” is gone, what will happen next?
Then, you are there! You are already there, because you have created the
“I”.
Just as
someone, who thinks about himself, simply has to change his point of view and
must reflect about God. You simply have to turn into God's direction that is
all.
If
"I" and "MY" is there, GOD is not there, because God is
alone.
Your
consciousness should be completely innocent, just like a child's. A small child has no idea of “I”.
There
are so many ways to finish the ego, to destroy the ego, to give up the ego.
The
sense organs are also an obstacle. All sense organs take you into the
materialistic world.
The
power of MAN takes you into the materialistic world. This power moves according
to your sense organs. When you have control over your sense organs and your MAN,
then your intellect will follow. When you have crossed your intellect, then your
ego follows. By knowing, you think to know God.
But only
God knows God. Nobody knows God. How is it possible to know God?
With
this false ego, you cannot reach absoluteness. You are always in a state of
incompleteness.
Only God
is complete though we are part of him.
By this
I and mine you reduce your omnipotent power.
You
would like to become as mighty as the American President. He has to decide over
the whole world. There can be no doubt about it. Nobody can face him. That is
mighty.
When you
give up the thought of being mighty and give up your EGO completely, you finish
it and then you are omnipotent! Omnipotent means immortal!
If you
are omnipotent, you will be immortal.
If you
become mighty, you have to die although you are immortal.
There
are so many ways. So many techniques were given to us by the Saints of our time
for this purpose of this human life.
