From a
Pravachan
by

Sadgutu
BRAHMACHAITANYA MAHARAJ

_______

" My fond desire is that
everyone should sincerely take
to the practice of

Namasmarana "

________


There was a person
who had lived long with
Shri Maharaj.

_About a fortnight
before casting off the mortal body,

Shri Maharaj
said to him,

" Commonly the eldest son
stays in the company of his father
for a great deal of time.
Other siblings often stay in distant places,
and are in their father's company
for a relatively shorter time.
_
Because of the close association
with his father,
the eldest son is well aware of
his likes and dislikes.
In such a case,
the eldest son has a duty to perform
after the death of his father, that is,
to further the prestige of the family,
he should inform his younger siblings
of their father's likes and dislikes
and to behave accordingly."
_
Shri Maharaj
further said,

" One can not foretell when Death may strike.
You are in the know of my likes and dislikes
because of our close association.
_
You should tell others about them.
If one were to ask about my likings,
then I have only one keen liking,
and that is that

everyone should sincerely observe
Namasmarana,
and never fail to remember
Rama. "
_
" So
freely tell everyone
about this fondness of mine."

India's Spiritual Secret !

_
_

_

SILENCE
beyond the
MIND

Beyond the mind a secret lies,
A secret that is of Yoga,
Not reached by talk or by thought
Or when gripped by Moha.
_
The definition Patanjali gives,
"chitta vritti nirodha",
Emphasises that Mind alone
Is the block to Yoga.
_
On activity that is exhibited,
On desires that hide,
On what is of Past and Future,
The present cannot ride.
_
The present bears the Presence
Of which, the mind, can tire.
All mental activity It must kill,
To reveal the Eternal Fire.
_
Tarry not, Seekers of Truth !
Reach beyond the mind !
Knowledge of Truth is not had
In what the mind can find.

In_
It is beyond Space and Time,
Beyond Eternity too,
Surpass the mind to reach It
For, It is in You!

Ring Out the Old . . .

_
_

. . . & . . .

_
Nationalism is an obsolete concept,
We now belong to the world !
Language, Religion, Race limitations,
Can no more take hold.
_
We must accept God is only One,
He really has no name:
Let not our ignorance brand Him,
He needs no name nor fame !
_
As Paramatma He stays within us,
Nowhere else He happily fits:
But He lives on in all worldly life,
And beyond all, He exists.
_
All races and nations contributed
to bring His knowledge to all.
"Come together now, in all humility,
for pride goes before a fall."
_
Common God, easy for all to to love,
Common language easy to read,
One Common Cosmopolitan Garland
With every religion as its bead.
_
Good work for all, hunger for none,
Children educated and strong,
All politics reduced to a single Zero,
Love as punishment for wrong.
_
The military turned social workers,
Wholesome supply in the mall,
Entertainments morally pleasing,
Health and Hygiene for all.
_
Now appears shining on the horizon,
The New Age we awaited long,
Let us greet it, marching all together,
Singing the "One World" song !

Voice of the Silent Avathar

to view the source site for more sayings
of Avatar Meher Baba:
_

_

• One has to go beyond the mind to experience the spiritual bliss of desirelessness.
• 
  
• If you experience that same longing and thirst for Union with Me as one who has been lying for days in the hot sun of the Sahara experiences for the longing for water, then you will realize Me.
• 
  
• The entire life of the personal ego is continually in the grip of wanting, i. e., an attempt to seek fulfilment of desires through things that change and vanish. But there can be no real fulfilment through the transient things.
• 
  
• The satisfaction derived from the fleeting things of life is not lasting; and the wants of man remain unfulfilled. There is thus a general sense of dissatisfaction accompanied by all kinds of worries.
• 
  
• Open your heart by weeding out all desires and by harbouring only one longing—the longing for union with the Ultimate Reality. The Ultimate Reality is not to be sought in the changing things of external environment, but in one's own being.
• 
  
• The faith of the disciple must always be securely grounded on his experience of the divinity of the Master. He must not be like a straw carried anywhere by the slightest breeze; he should be like a rock which remains unmoved in the severest of storms.
• 
  
• Spirituality must make man more human. It is a positive attitude of releasing all that is good and noble and beautiful in man. It also contributes to all that is gracious and lovely in the environment. It does not require the external renunciation of worldly activities or the avoiding of duties and responsibilities. It only requires that, while performing the worldly activities or discharging the responsibilities arising from the specific place and position of the individual, the inner spirit should remain free from the burden of desires.
• 
  
• Everyone is seeking happiness, but few have it; for, lasting happiness dawns only when there is complete freedom from wants. This highest state of non-wanting may outwardly seem to imply inaction and easy of attainment. But, if anyone tries just to sit quietly without inwardly wanting anything and with full consciousness (i.e., without going to sleep), he will realize that such a state of non-wanting is very difficult to attain and that it can be sustained only through tremendous spiritual activity.
• 
  
• The individual mind is the seat of the ego or the consciousness of being isolated. It creates the limited individuality, which at once feeds and is fed by the illusion of duality time and change. So, in order to know the self as it is, consciousness has to be completely freed from the limitation of the individual mind. In other words, the individual mind has to disappear but consciousness has to be retained.
