DAILY MESSAGES           

Series II                   

851)   Positively such a situation is shown by an unfailing effectivity of any expression of good will uttered however casually. µ

852)   To surrender one’s being, consciousness, power and delight,  one must be awake in the soul that is the master of the being,  be conscious, have mastery over the power — i.e. desireless — and be detached from the delight. p

853)   Thought being effective in world affairs is an indication of universalisation of thought, if not mind. µ

854)   The rival’s growing strength shows one’s own growth subconsciously.  [Atheism in South India, socialist principles all over the world, burst of devotional sects now like Ayyappan, Adi Parasakti, Tirupati are examples of religion growing in South India, socialism succeeding all over the world and the growth of real spirituality.] µ

855)   When there is a pressing problem, the advice of “Call Mother  instead of thinking of the problem” seems to be simplistic, but  it is as effective as it is difficult to follow. p

856)   To be able to call Mother ignoring the pressing problem, is to insis-tently choose Mother as against life, a radical turn towards yoga. p

857)   Man’s unconsciousness is so great that even when his “con­scious­­ness” is making progress, he is incapable of being aware of it. p

858)   This is because his inner being is capable of progress notwithstanding what the surface being is. p

859)   Should the surface being lose its separate identity, Man will find  himself a centreless sea of motions. p

860)   A mind without thoughts because of inability to think and a mind filled with Silence are poles apart. Non-stop calling can  make the former into the latter. p

861)   Primitive sects in modern times wishing to be civilised and  modernised need not always go through every stage civilisation  has passed through. &

862)   In an atmosphere saturated with Grace, the man who overcomes desire instead of finding pranamaya purusha is likely
to discover purushas of higher levels, even the Golden ­­­
Purusha.
p

863)   The penetration of perception into tiny events that reveal  their significance and indispensability is of a consciousness that can rise to touch the Brahman. p

864)   Unless war which was an instrument of destruction is transformed into an instrument of construction, there is no way of eliminating it. µ

865)   All our spiritual enquiries are subjective, not objective. For that to become objective, we should come out of the ego. p

66)     The Divine sometimes thrusts great luck on man robbing an  ‘offering’ from him. p

867)   To spiritually conceive, not mentally, the process of  involution and evolution as HE has described, one should transcend Mind which Shankara’s Adwaita stops short of. p

868)   The most arduous part of yoga is not the ascent but the preceding surrender. The ascent is not so arduous as absorbing the descent into transformation. p

869)   The decision to surrender is more difficult than the process of surrender. Surrender is an act of the psychic but the decision is of the mind. p

870)   Preference goes as better opinion or higher knowledge. µ

871)   Spreading of a work all over the world either directly  through an organisation or subtly as carried by thought waves shows the universalisation of the physical consciousness. p

872)   Calling The Mother to prevent a trouble, to solve a problem, to create an opportunity, to enrich the consciousness, or to transform are of different intensities and each vibration is diffe-
rent from the other in content, though all go under the name  calling. 
p

873)   A revolution of rising expectations awaits us because the threat of war no longer occupies the benighted nerves. New technolo-
gies indicate infinitely attractive possibilities that are irresistible. Both create the expectations.
µ

874)   The ultimate basis and origin of all great values of culture  is physical security and well-being. Conversely, to seek greater well-being  one can seek higher values. µ

875)   Essential existence becoming phenomenal existence is con-
sciousness becoming force. Force sensing itself is enjoyment.
&

876)   Man enjoys when he turns his force—life force—into sensa-
tion, physical sensation. It is at its height in the sexual acti-vity.
µ

877)   This height can be raised if the activity is a new one rather than the old one. µ

878)   Sexual activity is the age-old expression of vital force through physical sensation for the purposes of physical creation. µ

879)   It can be newer if the level of creation can be raised from physical to vital and further still, mental and spiritual. µ

880)   The Divine Soul reproduces itself in the mature human soul.  During the ascent this reproduction is the acme of enjoyment  through sensation. &

881)   During the descent it can find the same expression as sexual  activity at the physical level, maybe not for producing an offspring, but for the sake of spiritual progress through that activity. p

882)   Sexual activity is enjoyment in expression at the physical  level. Fantasizing, occupation of the mind, preoccupation,  expectation, being hands-on, depression, worry, thinking,  understanding and all the other activities of mind, vital and  body are lesser versions of enjoyment in non-expression or non-activity. All these go under the name of indulgence. µ

883)   The secretive nature of the selfish man enables him to take  more from everyone, thus increasing his selfish efficiency. µ

884)   The same secretive nature of the unselfish man gives him  mental silence and enables him to give more to others, thus  increasing his unselfish efficiency. µ

885)   Men in high position meet in one year the life situation an ordinary  man will meet in his whole life. Spiritual men penetrate into events and  they meet in one day by that insight what great men can learn in a lifetime. µ

886)   There are people who are very self-righteous and who take pride in  doing the very right thing. They witness a strange phenomenon that after each such act they meet with a mini-tragedy or something unpleasant. µ

887)   There are other people who are constantly drawn to acts that go  against their conscience. They too witness a strange phenomenon that after each such transgression they receive a pleasant reward from life. µ

888)   The above-mentioned self-righteous people are evil-minded  ones who proudly maintain the outer form of right. The conscientious people who do violence to their conscience are good  people who have imposed on themselves the social conscience of  apparent good. µ

889)   Yogic progress can be described as transcending moral and  psychological notions in practice. HE describes it as a change in in-view and out-view. &

890)   The view of the mind endorsed by the body becomes effective  existence. &

891)   When the view changes its centre from the moral notions and  psychological attitudes to the spirit, it awaits the body to endorse it to yield yoga siddhi. &

892)   Pretending weakness with a child makes the play with him  possible.

Good manners requires assumed ignorance of another man’s foibles.

Utter generosity — like the Bishop in Les Miserables or •zu|őuß — requires  total ignorance of the other’s wickedness.

Creation of Inconscience demands absolute ignorance of the Origin. µ

893)   Surrender as a method is easiest to understand, impossible to begin. p

894)   A soul ripe for spiritual experiences will miss them if it hankers  after grand schemes. Equally it will miss them when it seeks to enjoy the experiences it missed in the past, either in fact or in fantasy. s

895)   Taking initiative to enjoy what God has given is different  from taking initiative to secure an enjoyment. The former is not­­­ 
only permissible but is necessary while the latter is not permissible.
p

896)   Any one of Mother’s methods followed to fullness leads you  fully into HER consciousness.

897)   Gratitude grows in significance when we offer it to persons  and things taken for granted. Patrimony and natural resources are thus taken for granted. µ

898)   The whole of humanity takes for granted, i.e. completely ignores the existence of God and His role in their lives, being  oblivious of Grace that is constant. p

899)   To be aware of inheritance, to take note of the air we breathe is to be more conscious and indicates a keen sense of gratitude. p

900)   That sense reaching down to the physical thrills at the recognition of the hand of God in our lives. This is gratitude par excellence. &
