Digest Number 214

[Guest guest]

The post from Cathy and followup post indicate a core

aspect of Maharaj's teaching that has been under

reported and under contemplated. At least in 1979 he

returned again and again to statements such as " I

speak of only one thing, the knowedge I Am " , " I can

only tell you the truth about who you are, but you

don't want that. You say, 'Oh Maharaj, I have

traveled so far, I have done this Sadhana, and that

Sadhana, you must give me something.' I offer you

everthing, but you don't want it. What is to be done?

Very good, take this, take that, what does it

matter? " He tells us the Absolute Truth, demonstrated

in his everday activities Absolute Being, demonstrated

that he would not be constrained by any dogma;

demanded only one thing, that we understand what he is

and that there is no differance between him and

ourselves. But can we do that, can we believe that we

are that absolute? So much easier to 'take this,take

that'....john
