Guest guest Posted February 7, 2002 Report Share Posted February 7, 2002 February 11, 1981 Maharaj: I have studied the five-jeweled ornament, I have understood. It was very precious gem, and the ultimate product was that diadem. I have understood the value of that, but I am not that. The five gems are the five elemental body and consciousness, which I considered myself to be. It is very precious because it has the value of the cosmos. I recognize it, and in the process of recognition, I know that I am not that. Now I rarely speak, and when I speak, rarely does anyone understand. You might collect a lot of words, but they will remain with you? You are bereft of words and the meaning of words, you are not a personality. That birth principal which gives rise to the consciousness is not conditioned; it has come spontaneously and manifests as consciousness. How caught up you are with the world! Until yesterday you did not have knowledge of your existence, and today you are loquacious; you are speaking so loudly, and you claim that you are Brahman. Q: I know that I have to understand all this play of consciousness and conclude that this is like the child of a barren woman. M: How are you going to catch that child of a barren woman? Just be in your beingness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
