You and HE

[Guest guest]

You and HE

 

By Sita Krishnan WHEN you see the Master, he says you are not what you think you

are. He tells you that you are not a mere human being with spiritual experience,

but a spiritual being having a human experience.

 

Not only are you not ready to believe him, you are acutely uncomfortable as

well. You get frightened and run away.

 

After sometime, when the Master touches you in some way, you feel

attracted to him, you stop resisting, you listen, but you are not yet

convinced. After some time, the energy of the Master attracts you and

you start remembering him even when he is not around; he becomes a part of your

being. Still, you are not ready to give up your own value systems and beliefs;

you play a game of hide and seek with the Master.

 

Once you start trusting him more, he forces you to experience your

reality. This is initiation, or the first experience. But even after

that experience, sometimes you deny it.

 

The Master is a person who removes the ultimate cancerous tumour that

happens to our being, which is our ego. He does surgery directly on

that tumour. He never allows you to be stuck or be comfortable with

anything less than the enlightened state. Even as you start

progressing spiritually, you may get stuck in some layer; you won't

even know you are stuck. In all these situations, the Master will push you again

and again to move forward. He transforms your whole life.

 

Whenever a surgeon comes with a knife, you may think he is going to hurt you,

but the knife of a surgeon is not for killing, it is for

healing. The Master is the ultimate master surgeon to remove the ego

at all levels, be it materialistic or spiritual. People have spiritual ego when

they have the 'holier than thou' attitude. The more you allow his surgery to

happen, the more you realize the truth. A few people run away from the operating

table during surgery; that becomes dangerous.
