Thought for the day
God is not male or female. In Truth God is genderless
From the book Principles of Becoming God
Principle: When our feelings are turned towards God, they become Truth. When they are turned towards the world, it is untruth. 
According to the karmas performed in previous births, the jeeva enters a new body. Bhagavan is the Indweller, acting in all. What is the power that makes the senses, mind, body and intellect function? It is the power of the God, Atma Shakthi. This power is the cause for the body to function. Scientists say that breathing controls the blood circulation. But how is breathing controlled? It is through prana, the power of God in every soul. 
What is prana? It is the life force called oxygen. We inhale oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide; trees and plants take in carbon dioxide and expel oxygen. The oxygen that enters through the nose stimulates the human heart to circulate blood around the body. 
An example. A scooter’s tires are filled with air. If the tires are flat, one must go to a petrol station and fill the tires using a pump, only then will the wheels rotate properly. The wheels will not rotate if there is no air in the tire. This air allows cars and bikes to run on the road. In the same way our body is a sack filled with air. Is it enough for a bike to have only wheels? No. All parts should be assembled properly, the engine should be fitted correctly and the tank filled with petrol. It can then be driven by one who knows how to drive. 
In the same way, it is not enough just to fill the tires with air. Filling the tank with petrol is akin to how prana functions in the body. The Atma is the driver, the body a mere air sack. Will our body function just by filling it with oxygen? Is it enough to fill a tire with air? All other parts should be in good condition and a driver is required. It is the same with the body and its functioning. God functions through man like a driver, motivting from within as the Atma. 
Man has to suffer the consequence of his actions because he wrongly assumes that he is the doer. God alone is the driver; He causes all to act. Due to man’s ignorance he is born again and again and caught in the cycle of rebirth. The source of sustenance is not the body, senses, the mind, prana or intellect. The Upanishads state that it is the Indweller, the Atma. Knowing this is wisdom. Once this wisdom dawns, Truth can be known. 
Great souls came and contemplated... In this world there are so many problems, diseases and sufferings. What is the  cause for misery in worldly life? Desire and attachment. How does this attachment arise?  It is due to the body and those who are connected with it. Discriminating like this, they came to the conclusion that the root cause for everything is birth; so, they began sadhana to escape from the cycle of birth and death. Through intense penance they experienced Atma jyothi, the light of the soul. The peace they obtained was permanent and changeless. Now there is Prashanthi with out any Ashanti. This alone is permanent peace. Shanthi… Shanthi…Shanthi.

Thought for the day


Your feelings turned towards God will make you God.


 

The one which you ignore it will be worshipped.

 

One man was walking on the street. On the way he saw one big stone.  He stamped on the rock and then kicked it away. Then another man came that way and he saw the stone. He was near it and turned the stone upside down. He had one thought. He took the stone to his house, used chisel and molded it. Slowly out came a beautiful statue of Krishna.  Many days he work hard on it. Lastly he worked hard and finished. His neighbor was the priest of a temple. He saw they deity. Then he said it was very beautiful. We put it in a temple. Then he purified it according to the shastras and placed it in the temple.

 

The people who are coming to the temple saw the new statue of Krishna. They worshipped the beauty of the deity.  One day the first man who kicked the stone came. He saw Krishna’s statue and worshipped it.  But he did not know that it was the stone which he ignored and hit that was made into a deity and now worshipped by all. He did not know that. The people in the world are the same. The divinity is inside everywhere, everything, in everyone. So don’t ignore or insult anyone or anything. If you ignore one thing it will be worshipped by you one day.

Thought for the day
There is one Universal Consciousness. Our feelings connect us to that Universal Consciousness.
From the book Brahma Sutra

Before the construction of the Mukthi Stupi, we consulted the Kagabujandar Nadi. The Nadi said that the sceptre of Mukthi acquired through the penance of Venkatesh Rajan in the celestial court, and the Mukthi Stupi are the same.
I was born due to the prayers of my ancestors. Swami says the dharma pillar or Mukthi Stupi, is the mirror image of Him, the sceptre of Truth. I am Swami’s mirror image. The Nadi also says, “She, who has attained the half of God.” From the time of my birth, I have searched only for God.
 Through my intense love for God, I have lived a life of righteousness and have attained Him, merged in Him. For the one who has attained the Lord by following the path of dharma, dharma now follows him. An example. Though I desired to marry God, I was told that it was not possible and was married in the normal way. This caused me great pain and I cried many tears. After crying and yearning for over 46 years, Swami told me to compare my wedding photograph, with a picture of Him in His youth. The form of the one whom I married and Swami’s form looked like they were cast from the same mould. Swami then said that dharma entered into the action of my marriage and that it was He alone whom I had married. This proof shows that as I had followed dharma, dharma followed me.
In February 2008 the naadis were consulted again. The texts confirm that Swami was in the form of the one I married. I married only Swami.
In April 2003 Swami said, “Rama and Sita did not waver from the path of dharma even in thought. Their life together defines Prema and exemplifies chastity. The first syllable of Rama, ‘Ra’ and the second syllable ‘dha’ of Seetha, unite to become Radha, you. You have fire like chastity. You have offered everything to God. Due to this, the karmas of the world are burnt and Universal Liberation is bestowed.”Swami said that since I have sanctified my whole life in this way, dharma now follows me. The scriptures teach dharma. Manu, the first man, lay down the codes of dharma; it is called Manu dharma shastra. There is a code of dharma for each and everyone. There is a dharma for a king, dharma for ministers, individual dharma for men and women, political and social dharma. Dharma prevails only when each follows his prescribed code of dharma. When dharma declines, God descends as Avatar.
The cycle of Nature revolves around man’s observance of dharma. When man performs actions by walking on the path of dharma, rains come. When the rains come at the proper time, the seasons follow as they should, crops and food are plentiful. Man is sustained by and born through food. When he deviates from dharma, Nature is affected. The harmony in Nature is disturbed and it shows its fury. At this time, God descends as Avatar to establish dharma.Like the cycle of Nature, the establishment of dharma also follows a recurring pattern. In every Yuga, there is a need for the descent of the Avatar to establish dharma. Why this repetition in the decline of dharma? Through inquiry, I found that it is due to the lack of Prema. I am showing through my life that when Dharma is followed with Prema as its basis, it will not be destroyed. Swami refers to this when He said, “You laid a new path of Prema.”  

Thought for the day
The five elements directly affect the five senses. If we are not pure, the five elements will lose their purity. Therefore, each one of us is responsible to bring harmony to the five elements. 

From the book Miracle Maya Part 2

One man has acquired many siddhi powers. He considers himself a high soul. He has these powers due to the penance done in previous births. He can manifest vibhutti and small idols. He can bring lingams from his mouth. He has Swami’s grace, yet he has ego. He considers it as self confidence but it is over confidence. This is vanity which turns into ego. He though does not realise this.

Here is one experience I had with him:
In 2002 Swami told me to go to the vashista cave there He told me that he would marry me physically. Seven of us from Madurai started for the trip it was a wonderful journey. All of us were very excited how will Swami come? How will He marry me?
A few days before we left for Vashista cave this particular man came and said Swami had come and told him to give a mangalya to me.
He said, ‘It is inside my body, it is mother sita’s mangalya, I will  remove it from my  body and give it to you there, Swami will then tie it around your neck’
I cried bitterly to Swami.

Vasantha: Should you not give me the mangalya with your own hands? How can my mind accept a mangalya from someone else’s body? How can I wear it you should tie the mangalya yourself otherwise it will compromise my chastity. I will accept a mangalya if you yourself materialize it or even if it comes from the flow of the river, but I feel disgusted if it were to come from the body of another how can I accept it?
 I cried bitterly thinking thus and told all to the ashramites. I was feeling so uncomfortable with this thought that eventually I told this man that I cannot accept this mangalya that will come out of your body. Saying thus I continued to cry.

 Morning  Meditation.

Vasantha: I am wrong Swami if this is your sankalpa then I will accept it.  I then told the man, ‘I will do as you ask I will accept the mangalya from you’ He replied ‘I have returned the mangalya because you refused it’

Before we were to go to Vashista cave SV went to purchase some items plates tumblers  small silver pots for vibutthi and kumkum, bangles, toe rings and a sari. Before he reached the house there was kumkum on everything. I asked Swami whether we should buy a mangalya. He said ‘no not now’
We reached the Vashista cave and meditated the whole night, it was very cold. Swami came at 4am. He held me by the hand and said “You pure consciousness, have merged in me pure consciousness. This merger is our marriage this is the foundation stone ceremony for the Sathya yuga. All this happened in the presence of Vashista, Arundathi and all Gods and Goddesses. This vision was perceived by the seven that accompanied me yet we had a feeling of disappointment because Swami had told that he would come physically but He did not. I cried, immediately the man said, ‘why did you refuse the mangalyam from me? This is why Swami didn’t come. Now if you tell me I will give you the mangalya Swami will  then come and tie it around your neck, I agreed. He took the mangalya from the ganges and sent it to me through one woman. I was continuously crying. The woman brought the ornament made of silver and black beads it was shining bright. I however did not even see it properly. I did not touch it. I told the woman to place it on Swami’s padukas. SV, Fred, Yamini and Geetha all tried to console me my tears did not abate. A short while later the same woman returned and took the mangala saying “he has asked for it” later he came to my room. I asked Him where the mangalya was he replied all are asking for it so I threw it in the Ganges.
We were shocked, next day all of us returned from the Vashista cave we stayed together in one house. The following day Geeta had to run some errands and happened to visit the house where the same man was staying. There he took out the mangalya from his pocket and forced the hostess of the house to wear it.
 Why did he do this? I refused to wear the mangalya so he made another woman wear it.
 He told me that it was mother Sita’s mangalya and Swami would tie it around my neck. Now he has given it to another woman. It hurt me very deeply he has dragged the glory of mother Sita and the glory of Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba through the mud. I cried in agony. This event went deep into my heart it shocked me. This incident reveals his ego, he is arrogantly swearing that he has the power to bring Swami. But Swami did not come. This man played with the fire of my chastity. Many people have played many dirty games with me and hurt me, but know one has played with the fire of my chastity. Swami says ‘you cannot touch anyone, no one can touch you this is the fire of your one pointed chastity’
This man has the power to bring out many objects from his mouth in the same breath he speaks casually about the sacred mangalya. This tarnished the sanctity of Sita’s mangalya. This mangalya is not for an ordinary person he wants to take it out from his mouth and give it to Swami then he says Swami will tie it around my neck. What blasphemy! Is it an object to be touched by God? How this strange man has weighed God. He says if you say ok I will bring Swami here. Do you think Swami is a puppy in your house? To come running the moment you call? How silly! How much ego! Is a mangalya an ordinary object to be bought in a shop? to give to anyone at anytime as you think? He said it was mother Sitas mangalya. He brought out mothers Sita’s mangalya for me and when I refused to accept it he forced another woman to wear it. If Swami wants to give me a mangalya will Swami not give it to me Himself? This happened in 2002 at that time I did not know about the world and the people that do siddhi’s. I believed this man totally. He said that Swami himself had put the mangalya in his stomach. I believed him. How much sadhana I have done? How much wisdom did I gain?

Thought for the day
God is love. Expressing this love is man's dharma

From the book miracle maya
A devotee told me that he was afraid to go to miracle houses. He said ‘I feel anxious that Swami may write or say something about me. I feel free only here with you, I can experience true bliss only here this is because pure love is expressed by you’ Initially it is a happy experience to visit the houses where Swami is said to write messages. Afterwards it leads to pain. Bliss is experienced only where truth is expressed. This is the touch stone for the miracle houses.How much bliss is derived from these houses?  Devotees should analyze and decide to what extent Swami reveals himself. Pure Swami reveals himself where one gets peace and bliss, anything else is an expression of ones mixed feelings.Each and every moment I analyse myself keenly. I am always aware that no evil thought or feeling should enter me. All the people of the world are my children. My goal is to make Swami grant Mukthi to all. That is why affection and compassion are my natural qualities. We should make ourselves a non entity. We should make ourselves empty. When we become devoid of the three gunas, tamas, rajasa and satwa, then alone can we see the Lord who is Gunateetha, beyond the gunas. Only after we have crossed these three can we receive the true darshan of the Lord.  Who is the embodiment of pure love. We reveal the Lord within ourselves according to the gunas we possess.Once when I was discussing this matter I came to know that Swami functions like a servant in these houses. He speaks and writes what they ask. A servant only listens to his master. He won’t even obey an emperor if one comes to the house. He obeys his master implicitly. That is why when I visited such houses they told me ‘do this, this is not correct, don’t do this etc, this came through written messages mostly. I found it all very threatening, it made me cry.

Thought for the day


Our feelings are responsible for the creation of our lives.

 

Karmic Law

 

What is karma? How does karmic law function? Lets us see about this? Separation is the cause for karma. Wherever we see there are differences. In family, there is enmity and hatred between two brothers.  Why does it come? It is because of I and mine. This creates karma. One example, One person calls his friend to his house. Then he shows and says this is my house, this is my wife, these are my two boys. This is my car. Then his friend points to the neighbours house and asks, “Who is there?”. Then he says, “He is my brother.” I, my house, my wife, my children, my brother. But of all these my brother is different.” It is his own brother but it is different. He does not come within his circle.

 

The father has only these two boys. The wealth is then shared between the two. The two boys alertly partition the wealth and quarrel. They share the house, land, money, vessels, sofa set all and they separate them between the two.

 

Then one son saw a pencil on his fathers desk. He took it for himself. But the other said I want a share of this as well So they cut the pencil and each took half. 

 

Those who have earned all these for the boys are also separate. One says you take care of mother I will take care of father. During old age they are also separate. The son will also be in the same state as he has two sons. Not realizing this, without love they separate their family aswell. These all happen without love. Love is important. If brothers are like this, then how would the society be? How is the nation? How is the world? When the time of India’s freedom, that time all said we separate the nation into two. How much Gandhi tried but he could not do? They would not accept. Lastly, India for was Hindu’s and Pakistan for Muslims. They separated into two. Before all said Hindu Muslim Bhai Bhai (brother brother). This separation is coming according to religion. Without love there is separation. All are the sons mother India. But they separated. White people and black people. At one time there was separation. This separation was due to colour. Oh God what is the limit for these differences. They separated, and so white people had one nation and black people had one.

Thought for the day


Just as the earth bears the man who plunders her, it is good to bear those who wrong us. 


From the book "How the Sathya Yuga is coming"


Just as some are fearful of lions and tigers, I fear this ‘i’. I need only My Swami. I fear that this ‘i’ may separate Swami from me. If anyone abuses or ignores me, is jealous of me, or gets angry with me, I bear it. Why should it be any of my concern? If I think too much about these things then the ‘i’ will creep in. I am afraid, that Swami will leave me. I need Swami only, let this ‘i’ be annihilated. I want Swami and only Swami.

This is why when Swami said I was Radha, Durga, Lakshmi, I refused, dismissing them as mere posts. I pleaded with Him to remove all these and make me empty. This name and form, Vasantha, is only an empty vessel. It will not react to whatever is done to it.

Swami has referred to this as the strong denial… ‘I am not’!  He says that it is shaking the five elements, entering every creation. It is like hammering the words ‘I am not’ into the world, this is the state of ‘I without i’. This is the fragrance and aroma of camphor. This fragrance permeates and fills everything. It fills everywhere the Indweller resides. The fragrance of camphor goes to the vibuthi.

I love only my Swami. I delight in seeing Him everywhere, in everything. This feeling to love God enters all. It makes all God. To explain this Swami gave the example of the blossoming flower. Let us see another example.

We buy a jackfruit and keep it in the house. After the fruit has ripened, even if it is locked away in a safe, its fragrance would still permeate the area. In the same way, even when my feelings are locked behind seven doors or seven centers of Kundalini, they will spread throughout the world.

What constitutes fragrance? They are the past impressions accumulated birth after birth, the samskara vasana. Each one takes birth and dies according to the samskaras. The ‘fragrance’ of my samskara is ‘I without i’. It is the state of living for God alone right from birth. It is this fragrance that awakens all telling, ‘I am not’. It eradicates the ‘i’ from the Universe. The ‘I without i’ fills everything. This is New Creation.

In his commentary on the Gita, Vinobhaji mentions, “The goat spends its whole life calling, ‘Mey! Mey!’ (meaning ‘I’ in Hindi). When it is dead, its intestines are used for stringing musical instruments, which when played make the sound, ‘Tu hi, Tu hi’, meaning ‘You are, You are’.

This implies that when the ‘i’ dies, the only sound is, ‘It is You’. “

Thought for the day
The departing soul carries his karmic load and thus is reborn on earth


From the book Sathya Yuga and Karmic Law


Now God is coming here as the embodiment of compassion. Spanda shakthi means compassion. Whenever dharma declines in the world and there is more adhrama, this compassion shakthi is shaking God. It makes him realize that the time is coming for avatar. Immediately through the shake one light comes down to earth as an Avatar. Although he is the embodiment of compassion, the avatar is in the witness state. He has come here for the Avataric task and to establish dharma. He does interfere in other’s karmas. Sometimes his grace is showering and then someone karma is full vanished. One example, Many years before Swami spoke in a large gathering in Trichy. That time he called one blind boy. He gave sight back to the boy. All were wonderstruck. The next morning infront of the building where Swami was staying;  was a large crowd. Swami asked who are they. They said, “All are blind people.” On the previous day Swami gave sight to one boy, and so all the blind people were waiting for Swami darshan to get their sight back. Then Swami went in his car through the back side of the building. Swami giving sight to the boy, is the special grace. So his karma fully vanished. The blind of the entire city came and were waiting for Him. He left Trichy through the another gate. He did not interfere in the karma of all people. All must experience their own karmas. This spanda shoke the witness God and gave the special grace to that boy. God has come here as an avatar, as compassion. Sometimes he pours his special grace through the spanda shakthi. Everythime everyhwerew during all the avataric times special grace happens. The omniscient God’s knowledge through his compassion decends as Avatar. God’s dynamic conciouness is pouring his special grace. This is God’s spanda. So this is the difference. Next we see. Before one man by name the cowan had passed away. Swami went to Yama loka and brought Him back. This is the special grace. Likewise many examples are there. Dynamic consciousness knows all this. At that time the dymanic conciuness kindled him to pour His special grace.  Another one example is in Krishna Avatar. Krishna and Balram were walking on the street of Mathua  Trivakarya was going to kamsa palace to give sandal. She had three bends in her body and seemed to e very ugly.  He gave to Krishna. Then Krishna showered his special grace on her. Next minute she became a beautiful women. Her form was changed. She knew who Krishna was, and was not afraid. She would give the sandal to him. So in one minute Krishna removed all her karmas.  This spanda only kindle  Krishna inside. In every avatar inside is this compassion and the special grace is pouring. These two are in every avatar. He came as Avatar through compassion but he is in the witness state. During special times for removing karma he is in the special grace state. He is functioning in the state of special grace. Again one example. When in P.P during the time of the special yagna. For two days Swami was in the compassion state. Through his compasasion, for the sake of the world he asked them to perform yagnas. However He was only in the witness state. The third day he came in the golden chariot. It was the day of poornahthi. At this time he was in the full of grace state. That grace is the special grace. It removes the evil powers of the world. That same day Swami asked me in Mukthi Nilayam to offer time as the poornahuthi. I am his spanda shakthi so he asked me not to come and said, “here you offer the time as a poornahuthi. For this action he showed his special grace that day. Now the time must change. The kali yuga must change and the satyha yuga must come. So that Swami told me you are the form of my special grace. You are pouring compassion on everyone and changing the yuga. Earlier Swami said you are my Daya devi. Daya means special compassion. Now Now step by step Swami is givng a new explanation for the spanda. First he said chitshakthi then daya devi, now special grace. He brought my form as the embodiment of his spanda shakthi which is inside him. I do not know the reality, so when I separated from him, from that time till now I am always crying crying yearning to unite with him. Through this separation and immeasrbale prema I want to change everyone like me, so that I balance everyone karma with my power of penance. I asked liberation for everyone. So that all will get liberation through this special compassion. Even God is as Avatar but he cannot enter in others karmas. So that he separated his special grace and made me take birth from him. Through my penance he will give liberation to everyone. The creation that came from him, will change like him and then will merge into him .For this only he has done this plan. During the beginning of my spirtual life I gave savathri shakthi to one person. Then Swami extended his life for 20 years. Likewise I removed someone’s karma and extended their life. Through my prayers many incurable diseases have been cured. I performed karma samhrar for many people. I have written this in many books. These  are all proofs for my tears and power of penance removing their karmas. When everyone began asking me to pray, I thought of the world karma. The I knew that the world is full of disease, problems and karmas. Then I cry to Swami, you take all the power of my penance and give liberation to all. It is coming as World liberation. This all I am not doing, He separated His spandam and he is doing it himself. This name and form is only an instrument. Swami’s special grace is functioning with Vasantha’s name and form.

Thought  for  the day
Just as Earth bears the man who plunders her;  it is good to bear those who wrong us.




Chapter 7
KALI CHALLENGESGOD
4 March 2013
Swami gave a printed poem. It is as follows:
How much further to go is all I know?
I lie awake, sleepless
Istand asleep, lifeless
Awake or asleep?
Both are the same
They both require
Me to be there
Yet who is me and
Where I be?
If I am asleep
Then where is He?
If I am awake then where is me?
Night comes and I worry about sleep
Day comes and I worry aboutawake
What is this curtain of illusion
That separates the two?
            g g g
5 March 2013 Morningmeditation
Vasantha:What is thisYou gave yesterday?
Swami:I wrote about your state.
Vasantha:Is it enough to write about my state? What is thesolution?
32



Swami:It is your pangs of separation. I will come.
Vasantha:Swami what is the lingam?
Swami:It shows the coming of aNewAge. This is the Hiranyagarbha lingam
where we both unite. From here comes theNew Creation.
End of meditation
Swami wrote about my state. I myself do not understand my own state. How then
can it be understood by others? I do not sleep at night crying in thoughts of Swami.
When I wasyoung,I did not sleep for 15 years. I was afraid that ifI slept I would
forget Swami. I have the same thoughts now. In those days, I wrote many songs and
poems.
When I am awake, my body functions as if it is lifeless. It is because I have no'i'.
As I have no'i', the body functions like a robot, withoutfeelings. Swami alone is mylife-
force. As He is not here, I am like a robot.
If I am asleep
Then where is He?
If I am awake then where is me?
Only when we unite will the life force re-emerge.When the curtain of illusion is
removedfrom the world, we will no longer remain in separation. Swami writes about the
feelings of separation.
A few days ago, Swami gavealingam. One side of the lingam was black and the
other white. This representsthe union of Swamiand I. On the black half,Swami drew a
coiled snake. At the top and bottom of the lingam were anSandV. It signifies the
opening of the chakras of kundalini. There were also manySandVsscattered around
the lingam. We also saw the letterYindicating the new yuga. The white half of the
lingam representsPureConsciousness. This is aNew Creationlingam, the
Hiranyagarbha lingam.
6March2013
Swami gave a poem on a printed piece of paper. On the top and bottom of the
poem was a 5 pointed star.
In the ocean of time
In the expanseof space
Of lonesome remains
Leaps a voiceless cry
Where areYou?
33



Upon the fire of sacrifice
Dawns one more day
Out of battle of sorts
A hapless call
Where areYou?
Oh reverie of heart!
Mellow in syrup of tears
We chantYour name
Come return
Save the Love!
In a drop of time
In an atom of space
By the will of Love
I come
I carry you
Tire not
Before the dawn

Is the darkest part.

Thought for the day Truth is God. 


We can attain God by speaking the Truth
The roots of the tree are under the earth. However the fruit is seen outside as the tree. It expands, becomes dense and gives shade to others. Sathyam is the root of the tree. Dynamic conciousness is prema. Sathyam is unshakable. Prema is moving so it spreads more and more. Prema becomes as a tree, flower, fruit and it gives itself for the benefit of the world. Prema gives itself and so it is expanding.
 The root is the indweller in the body. The body is the tree. The indweller is blue and the size of a paddy tail. We must perform sadhana and make him bigger. When we do sadhana the light grows more and more. Then God himself functions within our body. The nutrients in the root enter the tree and circulate throughout the branches, flowers, fruits, leaves. In the same way, our indweller, God’s light, spread throughout our body. That time whatever he receives as the fruit, he uses for the welfare of mankind. He uses His whole life for the world and then merges with God. The root is not seen outside. If it is seen outside then the tree falls down. Likewise through sadhana if we bring the indweller out, then the jeeva will merge with God and the body would fall down. The one who does severe sadhana attains God and leaves their body. Sathyam is the root, Prema is the tree, branches, fruit and all. The root of Sathyam cannot be seen by others. Through ordinary devotion and prema, one can attain God. My prema on God cannot be contained within this body. I want to experience God through the entire creation by it becoming my body. I want every jeeva to become like me and only live for God. My prema will enter everyone. I shake Sathya, pull the fruit from Him and give to the world. This avatar is fully functioning. So through my prema I acquired more benefit for the world. This prema is giving itself to others. The prema is acquiring benefit from the unseen Sathyam and is visibly showing it to the world.  Kali yuga changing into Sathya Yuga. This is prema’s visible power. Yesterday, in the newspaper we saw a picture of Swami on the golden chariot. We also read the matter. When Swami came in the golden chariot many people phoned to me. They said, “The sun was beaming. The golden chariot was shining. When Swami came it was a wonderful scene.” Eddy also phoned, saying that, “Swami came in golden chariot on the ladies side and the gents saw him from a distance. Swami looked very small.” Everyone derived bliss when Swami came in golden chariot. I thought is the golden chariot efflugent because of Swami or is Swami efflugent because of the golden chariot? If the billion sun Madhava comes in a procession in a golden chariot. His effulgence gives bliss to all. Without Swami, what is the use of a golden chariot? Now let us see about this. God is in the santum santorium in a temple. During important functions at temples, they bring the deity out in a chariot as a procession. This is called Radho Utsavam. All who see this become purified. In Tamil nadu there is big chariot in Thiruvaru. That is the biggest. Next biggest is in Andal’s temple. Every year there is a chariot procession. The chariot is very big and goes around four streets. On two sides of the chariot they tie big ropes. Then on two sides of the road thousands of people stand and pull the chariot. There is proverb, “All have come together and are pulling the chariot.”.When the procession comes to the four streets, lakhs of people see and benefit. On the chariot the priest sprinkles holy water on everyone. Now they put batteries and motors. The chariot procession take place in this way. Without man’s effort all is happening mechanically.  What a pity. Man’s effort is very important to receive God’s grace. This is showing this.
 Now let us see how the golden chariot takes form. The people make every part of the chariot. They polish the gold. Then they assemble every part. Step by step the chariot takes form. All the parts are fixed and the chariot is ready. Then Swami sits on the chariot and He comes in procession. This is the effort of unity. All the parts unite and then it becomes chariot. Likewise our human body is like a golden chariot. God is a blue light the size of a paddy tail in our heart. He is the indweller. In the Gita, Krishna says, Mamam vasisho, jeevloka….the blue light that is within everyone is His amsa. That is the atma. That is Antaryami. When we perform sadhana the blue light becomes big. How we do sadhana? We purify every part of our body. How to purify every part of the golden chariot body? By controlling the 5 senses. Go beyond the three gunas, separate the 5 kosha’s. When we do all these things the body will be purified. Now the indweller who resides inside becomes big and spreads throughout the body. Then His light spreads throughout the body and He becomes a golden chariot. It is shining through the gold of God’s efflugence.  This is ojus, tejas. The body of the saints and sages shine within. This is tegas. Now God comes as procession in the golden chariot of his body. Now this jyothi must spread outside everywhere. This jyothi’s name is prema. This prema slowly slowy spreads outside. The prema light spread everywhere and sees the sathya light. One who purifies their
body into a golden chariot merges with God. When we purify every part of the body. Then every part pulls God outside. This is equal of everyone pulling the chariot together. Some do jyothi meditation like this. They imagine the blue light God in their forehead as a jyothi and then they meditate. They imagine the jyothi going to every part of the body. After it spread in every part they imagine the light spreading outside. Through this bhava the whole body is filled with light. This is the inner meaning of golden chariot.
