Chapter 48

FUNERAL & MARRIAGE - Same Day

My body is not well. Dots have again appeared on my scalp and my hair is falling

out. What should we do? Which doctor shall we consult? Today Swami gave a bouquet

of five lily flowers, which had five leaves. He also gave a box of turmeric, yet inside was

sandal powder. In the afternoon, I read the June issue of Sanathana Sarathi. Here many

devotees have written about their experiences. After reading, I began to cry and cry,

"Why don't I have such experiences?" All consoled me. 

Noon meditation

Swami :  Why are you crying in this way?

Vasantha :  I do not have such experiences. How much they have enjoyed.

Swami : None has had your experience. Theirs was only an outer experience.

Yours is within.

Vasantha :  Swami, I have no experience. What is the use in writing? You have also

not come.

Swami :  Sure I will come. 

Vasantha :  Swami we all discussed whether we should call the dentist or ENT doctor. 

Swami :  No. No doctor. All will be okay. 

Vasantha :  Should we go see Dr. Vijay Kumar or Dr. Ramaswami?

 Swami :  Both are the same. Take the medicine that they prescribe.

 Vasantha : Will You write which doctor or medicine? Till You come, write

something... a remedy for the difficulties in my body. What shall I do with

the sandal powder?

Swami :  At night, apply it on your body. Do the same during the day

Vasantha :  Swami what are the lily flowers?

Swami :  The entire Sathya Yuga is only our marriage. 

Vasantha :  Now I understand Swami.

What is Videham Mukthi?

5 June 2013 Morning meditation

Vasantha : Swami, when I was writing about the guru, what were the four clouds on

the picture? 

Swami : All are passing clouds, now only four remain. Thus, I will come in four

months time. 

Vasantha : Really Swami? You will come on Your birthday?

Swami : Sure I will come.

Vasantha : This is enough Swami, please show some proof for this.

End of meditation

Now let us see about this. At noon, Swami gave a card with His picture when He

was young. On the back were many trees with a river flowing underneath. There on the

river a heart form is seen emerging and two eyes. Above the two eyes another one, three

in total. Swami gave this as proof for Him coming (also showing His young form on the

other side of the card). It is through my heartfelt feelings that Swami comes again. He is

showing this. In the picture, many things are seen reflected in the water. There are three

eyes and the reflection of many trees. The element of water is connected to the mouth,

which indicates one of the five senses. I write my feelings through the words that come

from my mouth. These feelings make Swami’s new form. My tears, wailing and the

unbearable suffering and sorrow all bring Him back. My tears run like this river; Swami

comes out from here. Water connects to the fourth prakaram of the Stupi. Swami also

shows His return in four months through this. When we looked more closely, we saw

many pairs of eyes were there. This is according to Sarvatho Pani Padam, but this is

Sarvatho Shiromukha. Thus, all places are God’s eyes, hands, mouths, legs, etc.

When Swami comes, He will become the entire creation. The omnipresent eyes

show this. The two eyes near the heart shape indicate Swami. All others are for creation.

Through this, He confirms His arrival

Awareness Article #3

Compulsory Marriage!

Today,Swami gave one page of writing, divided into different sections. Let us see

the first section:

*Self-surrender, which means theprogressive alteration of the

personality (‘i’ consciousness) of the devotee,allows the devotee’s

consciousness to gradually merge intheIshta Devatha,hischosen form.

Swami put a star here, which indicates Krama Mukthi, where a person attains

liberation progressively and slowly. He attains the Ishta Devatha, his chosen ideal.

Swami said this is Self-surrender and is called Krama Mukthi. All those who are born

here must attain God; this is Krama Mukthi, the path of progressive liberation. However

many births one may take, this is the end for all. A person takes thousands of births and

slowlyattains God progressively, through Krama Mukthi. Another person performs

sadhana, with full effort and attains Mukthi, here and now. This is what Swami has

taught when He came here.

We must perform sadhana with full effort and attain God. Everything else in this

world is perishable. Whatever one earns in life is not permanent. Money post, relatives,

none of these things can be taken with you when you leave this world. If this isrealized

clearly, then you will be greatly benefitted. This rule can be followed with anyform of

Godand you will attain Him. This is what Swami shows and declares through the Sarva

Dharma symbol. God is one; all religions are the same. God is in the heart of all as the

Indweller, the Antaryami. He is there in the state of Witness.

It is through sadhana we must awaken Him. It is then the Indweller increases

more and more in size and guides us. This is told in the 13 chapter of Bhagavad Gita

through the five stages of Upadrishta, Hanumantha, Bartha, Bhoktha and Maheswara.

God is in the heart of all as a blue light the size of the tail end of a paddy grain. Through

sadhana, the blue light grows bigger and bigger, until it occupies the entire body. In this

state, the Jeeva becomes Shiva. This is the Maheswara state.I have shown in a diagram

from the chapter Food Vidya in Beyond the Upanishads, how this blue light expands and

occupies the whole bo

dy.

This is what Swami has said. Man is ever roaming, searching and running likea beggar birth

after birth. Now, at the timewhen Swami is here,we must not be beggars. All have come

here toattain God.Wemustrealise now,at the time Swami is here. It is due to desires that

manis ever runninghere and there. He goes from place to place, and makes great effortsto

fulfil his wishes. This isMaya; all isperishable. Ifthis isrealised,youwill attain immortal

bliss. This birth has been given to us to attain God.

Touch feeling is the reason for birth. Whatever touches one’s mind, and shakes man is all

touch feeling. Thus, man is born and dies again and again.  It is unfulfilled desires which are

the reason for rebirth. We must know this truth andgainwisdom. It is only wisdom that

frees one from being born again. The mind is ever asking for things. Desires constantly arise

in theman, healways wants something or other. In one of Swami’s discourses He said, “You

are not beggars, but lions.”Then in ‘Sathya Sai Speaks’volume 5, page 85He says,

...Are you not tired ofplayingthe parts of beggarsand clownsinsceneafterscene, birth

after birth?Aspire for the nobler role, at least now in this birth.

AWARENESS ARTICLES

Clown and Beggar

Yamini asked the question, “In the Aitareya Upanishad, it is said that Drishti means to see

with the mind’s eye. You explained for ordinary people, but how do you see all?”

Here is my answer. From my young age, I have never seen anythingfrom a worldly angle. I

connect all with spirituality. I have written of this before in greatdepthas‘cutting and

connecting’. Ordinary people seeone thingthrough their physical eyes, and something else

through their mind’s eye. Whatever I see with myphysical eyes I connect with God. I have

given many examples of this in the past. Thus, Swami now gives pictures, objects and other

things and asks me to write. I am writing about the wisdom of each thing. Whenever and

whatever I see, my eyes do not see the outer view; they see only the inner meaning. I am

telling of the inner divinity of each thing. There is nothing in this world that is devoid of

divinity. All comes from the permanent One God.   Lord Krishna has declared in the Gita that

allinCreation are like the beads strung on a single string. The beads are the many different

creations.  God is the thread, which all is strung on. When one sees the beads, the thread is

hidden from view. Only the beads are seen. Thus, all see the outer world and are deluded.

The beads, which are seen outside are all different. Man passes his time through his‘I and

mine that offamily, post,etc.

Howmanykinds of peoplearethere?

All are proof of God’s grace

All have different natures

Some have an animal hiding inside

Other’sa Deva hidingwithin

Yet, all is God’s play

Learn the good habits from each person you see. Imbibe good qualities from him.

Do not copy his deeds, copy his qualities.This greatest Avatar came here for those poor,

who do not know anything. They go on the wrong pathwithout knowing it. Swami and I

must change them. My tears and prayers are for them only.  For all others, there is only

the wisdom I write. Read, realize and transform yourself! Swami said if the ignorant

make mistakes, they are told and will change. But,those who are learned do not realize

their mistakes and only try to hide them.
