The quality of discretion - Part 4

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

We concluded Part 3 with the following:

 

" If you are discrete, as Sahaja Yogis, you will make others discrete also.

Others will have to be discrete and to understand. And this 'niraksheera vivek'

is the differentiation between the water and the milk, the bad and the good, can

come to you if you develop that discretion part. "

The quality of discretion - Part 4

 

In Sahaja Yoga, at every stage, you'll find people falter, also with the right

side indiscretion. And the right side indiscretion comes from the ego

manifestation of people. This ego is, as I said, is 'hum'. This ego doesn't work

when it has to work. For example I find some people went for a marriage in the

church. Of course, that's wrong for Sahaja Yogis, we don't believe in any human

religions, you know that. All right, you went to the churches, all right. But

they sent a lady to London to buy 'Laura Ashley' dresses. And I think, also,

maybe, some men must be wearing tailcoats to do the wedding. Where is that ego

lost? That ego that you are a Sahaja Yogi was completely lost. But I think they

all went for hairdressing, all kinds of things they did and they all wanted to

go there as old Christians walking to the church next to the graves of stupid

bishops.

 

It's not only here, India is much worse. As far as religion is concerned, the

left side, they are very, very conditioned people, and there they fail to

understand what discretion is. For example, we had Gyanadeva. He was such a

great Incarnation and he didn't even have shoes on his feet! And these days they

are taking out a big procession of palanquin, so-called shoes in it - of Shri

Gyanadeva - and thousands and thousands of people singing praise, just imagine.

Who can tell them that, " Gyanadeva had no shoes, what shoes are you carrying in

the palanquin? " And whatever village they go to or whatever city they go to,

they are fed with sumptuous food; everybody falls at their feet. The saints have

come with a palanquin and the shoes which never belonged to Gyanadeva in it. So

this madness goes on.

 

Now you see all these things happening around you in every country, in every

religion, in every stupid area you see all this happening. But you just join

hands, you become one with it. And then it becomes so difficult to understand

what has happened to you. Now this Ego, when used properly, then it's

discretion.

 

Now also people have another very horrid, horrid conditioning apart from the

religion – is of the countries, " I belong to India " , " I belong to Germany " , " I

belong to England. " Everything is wretched. I mean, to say something like that

means you are not yet grown up to the Sahasrara land. Those who start becoming

some nationality do not know that your nationality is transformed, actually

don't need any passports. In the area where the Divine reigns no passport is

needed; it's writ large on your faces. But still inside is deep conditioning is

there that, " I belong to this country, my country's very great, your country's

not good. " But when it comes to discretion is to think that, " All right, I was

born in Germany and Germany has made lots of mistakes, let me work it out, so

that I get back all my German people into the area where resides peace, joy and

happiness. " There, this conditioning is used in discretion.

 

In everything you will find there are two sides. Which way you move is your

discretion. For example, there are people who have a conditioning of a

particular a religion. Supposing they belong to the Jew religion and have come

to Sahaja Yoga or they belong to Christianity and have come to Sahaja Yoga. So

now what is the discretion? As soon as another Jew person comes or a Christian

person comes in, they'll just get into a fraternity of bhoots there. And they

all become great friends, because " She's Jew, I'm Jew, my father is Jew, my

mother is Jew, my this thing is Jew " . Same with Christians, same with other

communities, same with any other nationality. Now, what is the discretion when

you see. The best thing, discretion, at that point, is to see what are the

faults of these so-called human religions which are formed after the death of

the promoters, or we can say the incarnations or the prophets who started the

religion. This is first discretion.

 

The second discretion is to read those scriptures and find out what is so

special that these incarnations have said. I would say, if there is a Muslim, he

should go to Koran and see what's written in Koran as far as Sahaja Yoga is

concerned. If it's a Christian, let him go to the Bible and find out whatever is

written there as far as Sahaja Yoga is concerned. Because Sahaja Yoga is the

truth, and what truth is written has to be found out. If such a thing is

developed, then you can go further, if you are brave enough, and can be

courageous, to go and tell the people, that, " See, what is this nonsense you are

following? It's not written, it's not done. Whatever is written this is the

essence of the whole thing. " That's the third stage where you have used your

discretion as far as a particular religion, nationality is concerned.
