Perceive Spiritualism - Baba

Shankaram Shiva Shankaram

You should be able to think constantly of god. only in times of failure, you remember god. In times of success ,you forget the factor called god. This is the reason for the presence of failures & miseries in this world. It is only during crisis, that the heart reaches out for god. And that is why , problems exist in this world. otherwise we will totally forget god. So the problems that make us long for god are blessings in disguise.

Understand that you have no control over whatever happens in life. ponder over it, your birth, growth, education, career,.... Have u ever had a say in it? If you observe carefully, u will realize that everything has happened of its own accord. Look deep within, you will realize that you are indeed happy. whatever troubles you face in this world might put you down, but beneath the surface is an in-explicable sense of happiness.

Would god who has blessed us so well, ever refrain from giving us what we need? He has the power to bestow whatever we need. We should develop and nurture the capacity to receive his blessings. Whatever he has given us is also not on the basis of our capability .each one of us is aware of our qualification, our quality. And ,yet god has given us more than we deserve. this is only because of the profound love god has for us. it is high time that we start using our time to internally meditate always on god's feet while carrying on with our duties. That is the only way to show our gratitude to god for his gracious benevolence.

God exists in every thing and as everything. he rushes to you when you call out to him. he does not actually have any other task except to respond to your needs. He pervades the entire universe. it will not take even a fraction of a second for him to come to you. but you should have the ability to call god. if you call god with faith, he will definitely come.

If the tears from your heart are dense enough, then the current of their flow will bring god in a split second to you. then you really need not bother about anything. God will take care of everything.

There is an enlightening poem called: " footprints on the sand". it talks of a man who was forever crying in desperation for god. God told him one day," don't worry, i"ll always be there with you. when you come to me after your death, i"ll show you the course of your life". True to his word, after the man's death, god showed him the course ,his life travelled. The path had two pairs of footprints and sometimes only one pair.

The person, said< 'god, you have cheated me. you said, you will always be there with me.i see only one pair of footprints during the most miserable phases of life. You deserted me in those difficult years". God explained to him that the single pair of footprints was his. When life was normal., he was holding the man's hand & walking and that's why, there were two sets of footprints. But ,in times of distress, god has been carrying him in his arms and that was why there was only one set of footprints.

And that is god's true nature. He comes rushing to your rescue ,wherever you are, if you call out for him desperately enough. For you reveal that you need him only. When you are desperate for him. Seek to have god Always choose to have god. Only sublimity & modesty will fetch god's absolute grace. If you gain god and lose everything else, what is it that you have lost? If you lose god and gain everything else, what is it that your have gained. Learn to gain god. That way, you will be successful in every single effort. For it is god, who is leading you through & through.* & start imbibing this right now-.............train your mind to concentrate on god ,even when you are asleep.

To solve the problems ,to give divination ( arul vakku), to generate things by miracle, all these are being wrongly preached as spiritualism .but for this, & spiritualism, there is no connection at all.

Honestly, spiritualism means,to know ,what is athma, from where it has come? What is it doing? Where will it go & join? Why have i been born? When,will i die? After death, what? All these plus, where does the river merge at last? When will it go & merge? To know about all these is only spiritualism.

To merge the river, which is the jeevathma with the ocean , which is the paramathma. To make this merging process is what is spiritualism.

Whatever , materialistic matters, which you are searching for, has clearly no connections with spiritualism at all.there is not a minute connection of spiritualism , with horoscope, mantras & for atonement.(parigarangal). Fo many preachers came, representatives came. The preached so much. You never knew anything, you are telling, i am a hindu, i am a Christian, i am a Muslim. You are saying" my religion is high".

You go to a sweet shop.you take a little badshah ,little palgova, little laddu,l ittle jangi & eat it.then only can you tell that you like jangri. If you say,thay by eating only jangri,there is taste, in other's ,there is no taste. If you say like this, then where is the justice. You should understand the truth, then only, afterwards, if you hold faith, then only, you are a true spiritual person.

In today's religious spirituality,without knowing anything,they show ,as if they know everything. Honestly,there is no urge, or have the time to know about this. In this situation, the first step, you should take is , to go to any one spiritual ashram or org.

What will you search, when you don't know what is the meaning of spiritualism? There is everything, in front of you, there is everything in the kitchen. How will you cook, when you dont know where to put where? What king of cooking will you do? If you put coffee in tamarin & if you put sugar in sambar, the taste will

go. That is why, you should know, first, what will you get, when you mix with something.

That means, 9000 rivers are there. They all go & merge in one ocean only.what is the use? Of knowing only the names of all the religions. First, go to a school. Go to shivashankar baba's school, ramana's school, or go to any spiritual ashram. See ,if all is being preached there. If not, it will be a waste to go there. I dont have religions & caste. I will teach you about all religions. Hindu, christian, islam. If you ask, in which religious philosophy is the best, only then you will become a gnani.

You should know all religious philosophy, only, if you start knowing everything,only then, you will understand that all religions, have the same philosophy, same matter. Honestly,that we all talk about god, is not going to change, be it a hind, a christian or a muslim. If it changes, then it is a lie.

That means, all religions have told 2 matters. 1. Desires are the root cause of all miseries. 2. Love is god. Apart from this, in this world, nothing has been told. Only,when you start thinking ,only then you will become a spiritual person. Why, for what?? To make you think is only spiritualism.

How the rivers keep flowing, to merge with the ocean. Kamban -the great poet has told how the religion of rivers reach god. " pongupala samayamenum nadhigalellaam".

Everyone go reach , according to his fate. But whatever god's matter, he reaches is not false. That means, whatever we search for, in this world, the ultimate place which ends is only one. That is, onlyone spiritualism have been preaching in different different names. Vallal peruman has told" " god who is in the form of jyothi, what god likes it to love all living beings & not to fight & kill in the name of religion."

The first step in spiritualism is to know , what is spirituality??? To know what matters have been told till now, in the spiritual world. Then,whicever ,path you like, select it, the hold on firmly to it. You have seen everything & then you have selected this. Hence, there is no reason for doubts

if you think, that for you to reach god, you are willing to wait.then i will wait patiently. If you say, to reach god, " i dont have the patience. Then i will decide the time.
