sam: After you search long enough you begin to realize that it was

always there all along - your searching obscured it and kept the

perpetual game playing. Kind of like Dorothy in the movie, The

Wizard of Oz, when she says at the end, " I was there all along. "

 

Searching can become a tremendous distraction. The more you search

the greater your expectation and goal and then the greater your

mysery. Searching like this produces mysery because it it chunks

you into attachment of .... something other than what you have,

where you are, living your illusory life and it perpetuates it which

actually ends up counteracting the purpose your actually trying to

achieve.

 

In truth this search doesn't begin, continue and end in love, it

begins in mysery and longing for....something else, it continues in

that and ends in that. The great goal of nirvana is a made up dream

concoction no different than the made up illusory dream you live

in. You are just shuffling it arranging it around in a way that

appears to be more pleasing to you. Who concocted this idea of

nirvana? The great goal?

sam: Even one single momen of this is madness. Madness is madness

regardless of how much pancake makeup you hide behind. Your madness

just appears more acceptable to yourself as it is your prefered

avenue.

 

 

why are you here taking on this human form of illusionary nature?

Is it to discover love? Is it to discover what you are? If you

stop searching and distracting (which is just an egoic way to run

from what you are by appearing that your actually seeking to be

almighty wonderous) you'll discover that there was nothing to seek

after.......you were all along.

SHRI SAI BABA of Shirdi is unique in this respect for “HE” preached neither

a specific religion nor cult but propagated among those who came to him, a

selfless Bhakti with intense love for God. Baba entreated of his devotees

to bid good-bye to worldly possessions, honour, offices and status and in an

absolute state of abdication and abandon ponder on the Divine. With this

message to his devotees, Baba remained a Fakir and transformed those who

came to Him to transcend the empirical and ethical levels and rise further

to the spiritual. This is the ultimate philosophy all religions teach and

the Saint of Shirdi is a living example. May HIS grace be upon all of us in

a path divine to Godhead?

CHAPTER - XIV

THE REALITY BEHIND PRAYER AND ITS BENEFITS

Prayer is very much misunderstood by the modern people. In their view,

prayer is nothing but a travesty of universal material law, a fagade to

deceive the Almighty and a business of certain persons to fill

their belly by misguiding others. The materialistic modern man

does not believe in awakening the spiritual powers.

Young blood is naturally rebellious. Instead of having faith in

discrimination, it believes in being upset and excited. It desires

a new revolution, new transformation and new world in every

direction. Its approach is purely material. It has absolutely

no interest in spiritual life. It thinks itself to be so strong that

is does not demand anything from God by way of prayer.

This disregard is but a proud declaration of atheism. It is

hypocrisy to express doubt about the reality of divine power. It is

egoism of the physical powers, which, with its narrow selfishness,

turns everything to dust. Some ordinary people on the other hand, think

that by way of praying, we can deceive the Omniscient God to give

us what we want, this view is also mistaken.

Prayer is not a mental entertainment. Prayer is a kind of spiritual

achievement. Dutifulness, awareness, hard work and prayer with

deserving devotion behind it alone bring about the bliss from the

above as its fruit. The imagined calculations for self-aggrandizement of

those who demand more than their service are however not fulfilled by

prayers, it is generally observed. God will not pay heed to the

prostration and auspicious ceremonies of persons who are lazy,

daydreamers or who are deep in sense enjoyments.
