Sat Naam Robindra,

 

funnily enough I was very close to emigrating to Canada a few years ago.

I also justified it in many ways - mainly that it would help me spiritually.

Baba Ji said to me that God is here and God is there too. What really makes

us move is our karma. If we have give and take to finish in that place then

our karma makes it our destiny to go. But dont think it is for spiritual

reasons, because at the end of the day God is within you, closer to you than

your hands and feet, closer to you than your breath, closer than even your

thoughts. What helped me then was to really understand what the root cause

of my discomfort was. Then praying to God and with Baba Ji's blessings, I

was able to come to peace within and with those all around.

 

I've been to India many times (am born and bred in the UK), it is beautiful

and it is the most corrupt place too, you can meet saints and sinners on the

same corner. Dont be fooled by your imagination. The mind always paints

pretty pictures , like the carrot that makes the donkey walk forward. The

reality is different when you get there.

 

Look within, make peace within, pray for the Guru's blessings of Sat Naam,

pray for God to bring the lght into your heart, to shine from your face, to

calm the five thieves, to find a place at the feet of the saints.

 

I said to baba ji " It is so hard to find the saints " , he replied, " they are

everywhere, its only our ego that makes us blind. "

 

dust of your feet

 

Harjit

Sat Nam,

 

Right now i live in Canada and i want to move to India to get away from

everything. To be able to find a place where one can be allow a place of

peace with no disturbance, maybe later on might return to fulfil ones doing,

but for now at this present time just want to be allow a place where i can

let go of this duality and find that which one truly longs for. What I'm

trying to ask is do i need a visa to move to India and where will be a place

which you recommend to go for the beginning for arrival (a place to settle

down at the beginning) ,until later on when one decides to relocate. All

help is much appreciated, i only speak English for now and I'm 27. It feels

as i have to be in a positive place and right now strangely i feel kinda out

of place. Material things don't attract me, it more makes me what to be

away, guess cause so many people are caught up with it and they forget bout

whats really important. I am sure glad there is someone

like you in my life, Again thank you for everything and especially for

being you. Light and love always and will opening up to soon

Satnam,

Harjit thank you for that beautiful response, it reminds me of my trip

to India a few years ago. I backpacked across India and part of it was

a weeklong stay at Sai Baba's ashram. My family's been Sai Baba

devotees for more than 20 years now so it was a special stay for me. I

lived in the dorms, ate at the various canteens and even bought

whatever supplies I needed from the mall, everything contained within

the sprawling ashram compound. It was serene and peaceful, I spent the

time going to darshan, reading Sai Baba's books and just enjoying the

blissful atmosphere.

When I finally left, waiting right outside the ashram gate, was the

riotous swirl of life found everywhere in India, such an assault on

the senses that a person usually tends to extremes - love it or hate

it. Harjit you are so right about finding both saints and sinners on

same corners.

and I have finally thought through years later, with my kundalini

yoga practice and the teachings of Yogi Bhajan, that the true test was

outside the ashram's gate. Sai Baba's message that there is only love,

makes more sense to me on so many deeper levels, when I understand and

believe, and see divinity in all others, in everything I see.

I love Yogi Bhajans analogy about the lotus and the mud. That everyone

loves the lotus but no one loves the mud, and how this is absurd

because without mud, there is no lotus.

Love and light, Lou
