Guest guest Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 " Everything has a double thing. I mean you talk to anyone--The other day I was talking to somebody about the Israelis being cruel to PLO's. So they said " What about PLO's? They have been cruel " . I said, but where to end it? He said, 'it can be ended later on when PLO's are finished " . I said ... Everything has a second thing! Whatever you may say it has a second idea. Because this brain has a great capacity to produce waves on both the sides. Because it lives in relative terminology. To overcome this, there is only one way, is that you forget this and that, and you just say " IT IS " . Then only you will know the importance of it. Because any number of importance I may give you, you'll neutralise it. That's why Sahaja Yogis fizzle out. You've seen that. Why Sahaja Yogis--they get realization and everything--still they fizzle out one by one. Why?--Because their brain has a great capacity to produce anti-Sahaja Yoga understanding. So what importance should I tell you which is absolute for your brain, I just don't understand. Because you are very clever, and you will find out an anti-dote of that 'also'! It's impossible to convince certain people, but one thing one should know that God Almighty is an Absolute Power. It will do what it likes. So better be surrendered to it. That's what a Mother can tell to the children, that this power of Love and Beauty is to be surrendered to...Tvamekam Varenyam ( )--the one to be accepted, the One which is to be surrendered to. That's the One to be surrendered to. The beauty of the whole thing is that this is 'the' power one should surrender to, than to the power of your brain or of your mind. And once you realise this, then the importance of the whole thing will dawn upon you. Now, if you want to tell the people who are not seekers, you are in for trouble, I must say. It's not easy to convince these people, because they want to escape. And the idea that we have, " that we should convince everyone...... you are sadly mistaken. On brain level you cannot convince them. So best thing is, that you can take them to a point, -- 'see for yourself'. Otherwise, you give up. They are the losers, not you. What can you do? You have tried your level-best. But we think that we should have more people with us. But I don't know how many can be accommodated there. It's the other way round. Like, when you have to go by the plane, you have to ask the company to give you a ticket. If the ticket is not available you cannot travel. In the same way we have to see if the ticket is available there or not. When we think of God, also we think He is lower than us. So we can use Him. You cannot push people into it. Only those who will be allowed by God will be there. It's the other way round, we must understand this. This is what we miss: " That if we want we can push as many number as possible. We can get so many people to God " -- is a very, very wrong idea. You 'cannot' force God. He's not under you. You have to take His graciousness with prayer, with great asking, and 'then' you can save these people. He's not interested. He can create many more. So those who are not wanting, you should not try to sell. You cannot sell Sahaja Yoga. You may think that more quantity is a sign of credibility. -- Not with God. So many will be just dropped down, I must warn you. You have to be careful as to see, that even if you bring one person, you must consolidate. That's a better idea than to get a big quantity of people who will not get even a ticket, leave alone the seats. So, one should be satisfied. Alright?
