Series VI                                                                                      

 

651)         One who can read and inspire himself to action is a mental man.J

 

652)         Gratitude is the youngest of the gods. She is white and pure. Therefore she is dear to God. When Gratitude is pure and selfless, it is divine. &

 

653)         As long as the opposition comes from outside, one may be under an illusion of fighting it individually or collectively. The moment the opposition is seen inside one’s own set up, it is time to abandon one’s individual stance in favour of the descending Force.  It is the Force that descends first and creates an individual or collective to receive it. Neither the individual nor a group can precede the Force. 5

 

654)         When God offers the divine greatness to Man, Man awakens to the original greatness of himself. J

 

655)         When something bothers us, we contemplate what to do with it, which helps our strength go to the bothering agent. Rarely does it strike us to consecrate it at once. 5

 

656)         To surrender, one should be a master of Prakriti. 5

 

657)         Death of ‘I’ —  On the surface, the finite ego thinks in Time, making consciousness subjective through the divisive process of mind.

Ego dissolves when thinking stops.

By ceasing to be subjective, we cross Time.

By giving up the censor, the mind withdraws, becoming a witness.

The silent witness crosses ego and mind, but is still in Time. To cross the borders of Time, Jiva should become Paramatma.  The Jiva, the Many are in Time. The One is beyond Time. The One in the Many is our goal. &

 

658)         Grace descends only on some people. Most men receive the first touch only. Just at this moment, Grace is on you; the question is whether you are going to open yourself to it, and further, how long will you remain open. He who is permanently open to Grace or Truth will be fully transformed into the supramental being.&

659)         To be open is to be aware of the soul. To be aware of the soul, one must not be aware of the mind. To be unaware of the mind is to be silent. The capacity to be silent at will is opening. Total attraction of inner life gives the capacity to be silent at will. Knowledge that Shakti moves, turns you inward. To know that not man, but Shakti initiates is Jnanam. &

 

660)         Ego:  The ego of the man concedes divinity to God so that HE will excel him.

·      Ego has no hesitation or difficulty in equating itself with God.

·      There are instances when the ego tried to destroy God with the powers secured from Him.

·      Ego is so small and rigid that it cannot come forward to dissolve itself.

·      The only way the soul can destroy ego is to withdraw its power from sustaining the ego.

·      Surrender is difficult because it involves the awakening of soul moving away from ego to allow it to die a natural death.

·      Death’s arguments against Savitri even after he was defeated and darkness lost its strength are the classical instances of the ego’s persistence. &

 

661)         The determinism of our life is ego; the divine life is determined by the psychic. Change the determinism from ego to the psychic, and human life becomes divine life. The ego is human, the psychic is the divine. &

 

662)         For the minority to submit itself to the will of the majority, the majority submits itself to the ignorance of the minority. J

 

663)         Man’s rise, however small it is, touches all whom he relates to emotionally. It is the emotion of jealousy. Man loves to preserve his emotional equation with his human environment by jealousy.  It is by jealousy that one preserves his equilibrium of social emotions which is his vital sustenance. The one institution that is fully sacrificed at this altar is marriage. J

 

664)         Human love longs for what is not; Divine Love adores what is.5

 

665)         The world gets the experience before the knowledge. The process of descent begins when the resultant knowledge is made the prime mover. Even after knowledge is achieved, the tendency is not to use it as prime mover but a resultant part as before. When man makes the shift from the part to the whole, it is a shift from the physical to the mental. 5

 

666)         Ingratitude is usually unconsciousness. Rarely does the offended dignity of the unregenerate vital acquire the outer form of ingratitude.&

 

667)         A work sanctioned gets postponed when the ingratitude rises assertively. Its fulfilment does not come until the ingratitude withdraws. 5

 

668)         Wisdom is to discover THAT whole which is consistent with ALL the parts. &

 

669)         NO value that requires violence for its defence is worth its name. NO knowledge that can be communicated in words is worth receiving. 5

 

670)         The highest is attracted to the high in the low; the lowest is attracted to the low in the high. &

 

671)         He who helps as God helps serves the other. Human help destroys the receiver, turns him against the giver. Help that protects the giver is help. 5

 

672)         A bad act that fulfilled someone’s desire may not return as a punishment while a good moral act that denied someone’s desire may come back to you as punishment. 5

 

673)         What we understand as punishment is the unfulfilled energy once released. 5

 

674)         Energy released fulfils itself. J

 

675)         The first move is always inside. It is the woman who takes the initiative with man. J

 

676)         Silent achievements, expressive enjoyments. J

 

677)         Good men need someone to adore. Great souls need someone to whom they can offer total surrender. 5

 

678)         The greater the depth where knowledge arises, the greater the difficulty in expressing  it. When man stumbles on the knowledge at the greatest depth, it remains a secret. 5

 

679)         Something is a secret not so much because it is not disclosed, but because of its inability to find expression. A secret is that which cannot go into words. The strangeness and density of knowledge that prevents its being verbalised makes it a secret. 5

 

680)         Love and affection grow in a soil where there is no basis for suspicion. J

 

681)         The accomplishment of work is abnormally abridged by acquiring the appropriate right knowledge. J

 

682)         The difference between slow progress and fast progress is knowledge. J

 

683)         Knowledge is the quintessence of effort, energy, time and organisation. J

 

684)         Those whose problems remain unsolved are those who forget Mother and think of the problems. It develops the problems. They are unconscious about their forgetfulness. By calling Mother, problems will be solved. While thinking of the problem, they feel they are thinking of Mother. The mind will be engaged by thoughts and acts. To put them aside and remember Her is Mother’s Remembrance.  To forget work, thoughts and feelings is to remember Mother. That is the best indication for that remembrance. &

 

685)         The idealist lives for the ideal. Others speak of the ideal for their own satisfaction. The ordinary man is incapable of speaking of the Ideal. The successful selfish man is irritated by the talk of the Ideal. Others cannot even listen to such irritation. They are inert.J

 

686)         The subconscious collective becoming conscious through the individual is social evolution. Emergence of consciousness is evolution. 5

 

687)         Not to voice others’ defects is good. It is a rare virtue. To see our own defects in others’ defects is yoga. To know God’s richness in others’ defects is supramental vision. Good habits, good values, and soul satisfaction are part of devotion. &

 

688)         Man is ready to lose one eye so that his neighbour will lose both. Man can come forward to lose both eyes to restore the sight in one of his neighbour’s eyes. That knowledge is there in the world, but the world has not created a sage who can inspire people for that. 5

 

689)         We cannot speak out our problems to another or in the office. There are things that cannot be shared with our spouse. Other problems do not admit of utterance. They are insoluble. One can speak them to God. Many will be solved. For some, the reply will be “it is your karma.”  There is a gap between God and us, as we seek Him in the worlds above. We can speak to our soul. There is no gap there. Many more problems will be solved by the soul. For others, the soul will change into the witness Purusha. The gap between us and God is not there with Mother. Mother does not become the Witness Purusha. Mother has accepted life.

 

·      All problems reported to Mother will be solved.

·      Mother does not wait for our report or prayer.

·      She does not impose conditions.

·      The problems will be solved as soon as the mind turns to Her.

·      It is so because She seeks us. &

 

690)         One who is meant for yoga may choose marriage. He would listen to the yogic ideal out of the mouth of his spouse – her version of that ideal.

E.g. 1) One must be detached from objects of property is an ideal of yoga. The husband’s version of this ideal is, “Give all your jewels happily to my wife.” It means the wife will realise the ideal in future.

2)     The wife will ask the husband, “Part with all your property in favour of my family.”  J

691)         Instruction fails, silent will will not. J

 

692)         A good man cannot escape luck. J

 

693)         What we know is not relationship. To seek the world in one’s emotions is relationship. J

 

694)         Life seeking you is your desert. Our seeking is desire. Gifts will seek us if we deserve them. We do not deserve those things that do not seek us. J

 

695)         A quarter of a million that is tangible will not be so fascinating as a quarter of a rupee in the palm. J

 

696)         Complaining is wrong. To voice a complaint is not permissible. A thought of complaint is impermissible. A heart that complains gives up claims of rich fullness. 5

 

697)         To be busy at the highest level of enjoyment is the ideal. 5

 

698)         The selfish man trying to give up selfishness is like man trying to forget hunger. J

 

699)         Restraint in places where no restraint is possible is LUCK. 5

 

700)         Even the inner voice will be in Tamil (the mother tongue). The soul understands even a new language.  [Mantra of Life was in Sanskrit.] 5
