FALSE I AM AND REAL I AM

FALSE I AM AND REAL I AM

 

Before this occurrence , where is mind ? What is its seat ? There are two big

centres.(Here Master demonstrated the place of mind and ‘’Real I AM’’.

He located the mind in the head). Here is the mind.(He had shown the head). Here

is the heart or the place of real ‘’I AM’’ . This ( head) is the place

of false ‘I AM’ .you can call it negative ‘I am’.You can call the

other,positive ‘I AM’.The latter is real ‘You and the former is you that

became mind.Even while you are in sleep,He (The Real ‘I AM’) is working. If

not, you will die at once after you go into sleep.(Master here gave a

clarification about heart i.e.,physical heart and the real heart).Physical heart

is the seat where Mr.Heart exists.(laugh) physical heart and this Mr.Heart are

different from each other.Mr.Heart is the Lord existing in the heart.He is the

real  ‘I AM’ .Gradually this fellow mind (false I am)begins to travel here

because lungs are here, the respiration is taking place here, this fellow minds

begins to travel here gradually.Previously when this fellow(mind) was

sleeping,this fellow(Real I AM) was working.So when we are waking up, this

fellow(Real I AM ) is working.We think we are working here. ‘We’ means

‘mind’ until we practice everything in Yoga.If we say, I am going,I am

thinking,I am waking up, I am studing, have passed post-graduation, I am doing

job,I am giving birth to children, all this is being done by mind,but not by

us.This(mind) is not the Real I AM.This mind is false I am.This is Secretary of

the Real  ‘’I AM’’ .But he is acting as if he is the proprietor of the

whole estate all these days.Indeed,all this property, belongs to Him, the Real

I  AM who is seated here. (in the heart).He, the owner of all this estate,viz.,

the Real I AM has appointed the mind, seated in the head as His secretary.This

fellow, the secretary is making up believe for all these days that he is the

proprietor of this estate though he is not the proprietor at all.Hence, what is

tobe done with him at first ? So the service of the mind should not be

terminated but should be suspended.(Laugh).To make this fellow work properly is

required .It is befitted us.It is not befitting to remove him from service.

 

Some people say that  we have to concentrate the mind. People spend tens of

years and die in their own efforts because the process is false, You can never

concentrate the mind,never try to do it.Lord Krishna says, ‘asam sayo mahabaho

mano durngraham chalam’-‘No doubt, never believe that the mind can be

controlled’.It is always moving. The principle of mind is movement.Movement

cannotbe made static.So don’t try to concentrate the mind.It is a false

process.You will die in the process.If so, what to do?Instead of trying to

concentrate the mind, relax the mind by bringing it here.(The heart centre).Call

it here.Let it observe the movements of the respiration. So Yajurveda should be

brought to Samaveda.There may be many schools of thought on this subject.But

this is the original school.Sobring Yajurveda to Samaveda.Then gradually

respiration  should be equalized.Because you are having many inequalities in

respiration,it is non-rhythmic.By birth, it is regular and rhythmic. By birth,

respiration is normal.Every disturbance we create in the emotional plane,

disturb thousand times.We have spent many tens of years till now and our

respiration is among tensions.It is disturbed.So we have to establish rhythm

again. Now what is to be done with this ?It is to be equalized.Disturbance has

been brought out by un natural caused. Naturally there is no disturbance.Rhythm

is natural.We have to find  out the rate of heart-beat, when it is regular and

also when it is irregular. We are natural.The above said conditions are

unnatural. We have to get liberated from these unnatural conditions.That is why

we have taken up this subject,having come all the way.To be composed is

natural.To be disturbed is unnatural. It is automatic,we proposed to disturb

ourselves.So if we still believe that the disturbance is natural,we need not

come to Seeleru,or Paderu or Mothrgudem.We can be in Vsakhapatnam itself.We

disturbing the natural condition.

 

And also we see many examples of persons who live in the very busy world in

which we are living, but who still live a poised life.So it proves that it is

natural and what we experience is self-made.So Ramakrishna Paramahamsa and Swami

Vivekananda lived amongst us.At present, we have Swami Ranganadhananda amongst

us.Thier heart-beat, if had been examined would have been found normal.There

would be no B.P., with them.So also, Sri Ramana Maharshi was there. He lived in

the same world.His heart –beat etc., were normal.Therefore, it proves that all

these disturbances are self made and they are not true.As such, what have we to

do ? We have to make the respiration regular

 

I will tell you how to make the respiration even, regular and rhythmic. Being to

breathe slow, soft and uniform.Breath in as much as you can, with out any

discomfort. Then bring out slow, soft and in a uniform way, with the same

speed,so softly that you should not listen to the sound of your own breath or

respiration.This process you do as slow as possible,with out

discomfort.Gradually you will get mastery.At the same time,you should be

observing your own respiration with your mind .If your mind is wandering some

where, the whole experiment is a waste.

 

Neurralise the pulsations, centripetal and centrifugal, viz . , Prana and Apana

..Stabilise the path of pulsation and enter into the poise of breath.Bring mind

to heart by thinking if the heart.There is no Kumbhaka business in Patanjali and

Bhagavadgita.That is,breathing the air and stopping it tight and such nasty

procedures are not taught in the office of these two text books of Yoga.Take the

breathe in, calmly as far as possible i.e. , within your limits, in one stream

and breathe out in the same way.During this process,let  the breath not

move.Such respiration you should do continuously and observe the lights.This is

what is required.The purpose of Yoga practice is instead of living like a

conditioned fool living as the Lord of all these .i.e ., Lord of mind, Lord of

senses,Lord of Buddhi etc.
