Bhagavan: Namaste! Are you
there Mike?
B: It's so nice to see you.
B: Go ahead with the
questions
Q: What will the effect be
on our physical bodies as we
go through this process over
the next two years?
B: The past experience of
people who are in higher
states of consciousness we
would say the body feels
light, it feel very
energetic, you have a sense
of well being and highly
sensitive to sounds, smell,
touch and senses acquire a
sense of acuity - they
become very sharp. It's very
pleasant to be in this body
and move around.
It becomes a delightful
experience. You actually
feel like a feather. That's
what should be happening if
all things go well. It's a
beautiful experience.
Q: Some of us are
experiencing a lot of fear
about the transformations
that may be ahead and about
what is going on in the
world now. How can we face
these fears?
B: Fear is a word. What ever
is happening there you are
naming it and calling it
fear and all the problems
start. You are running away
from what you call fear or
whatever is there is what
you call fear. The actual
fear is something else. What
you call fear is the act of
running away from it. If you
were to turn around and face
the fear and soak in the
fear and see what happens. I
do not what to say what will
happen as you will turn that
into a concept. Please do
this. Turn around, allow it
to eat you up. Do this and
tell me what happens. I'm
not going to tell you.
The act of running away is
what you call fear. You have
never actually faced fear.
Running away is what you
call fear.
Turn around and face the
tiger - let the tiger maul
you, eat you up!
Q: ... laughter.. If you
don't hear from us again
you'll know what happened.
We were eaten up by the
tiger.
B: It's just a concept
again.
Q: If thoughts are automatic
as you were telling us in
the teaching for February,
where does choice and free
will fit into that?
B: Absolutely there is no
choice or free will. Once
you get out of the mind
you'll see how automatic all
things go. It's amazing. It
can take decisions, it does
everything, but you are out
of it.
Choice and free will are
only illusions. When you are
in them it looks as though
there is even though there
is no choice or free will.
At least you have these
illusions, you have this
impression that you have
choice and freedom but it's
not so.
Why do people commit suicide
if they have a choice, they
have a free will? What
happens is they are
suffering from such pain,
and what happened in the
womb gets triggered.
Let us say you are floating
around and enjoying
yourself. The mind throws up
an illusion when you look at
water there is joy there -
there is a pond or a lake or
anything and you want to
jump into it because it is
connecting with what
happened in the womb. Then
you jump in because you want
to commit suicide. Only
after you jump in the
illusion stops and you want
to get out. The guy who
wanted to commit suicide so
after jumping in is
screaming.
So also fire and light. Say
you had a beautiful birth
experience and you saw the
light at the end of the
tunnel coming out. Then when
you are in terrible trouble
those scenes will be played
out for you. When you see
fire you mistake it for
light. Thinking is all joy
and bliss. So where is your
control. You do not even
know it is fire, you do not
even know it is going to
destroy you. You are taken
over. That is you assume the
guy knows his own mind. Not
at all. He is pulled
magnetically towards it.
Very often you'll see people
just before committing
suicide ???ing, or sometimes
very happy. That's when you
get fooled, you let your
guard down then guy commits
suicide. So where is the
control there?
People talk of expressing
them self. How many people
keep expressing them self in
a positive way? Most of it
is destructive. You know you
have got to study for your
exam, you do not study, go
round like a vagabond; you
know if you speak those
words your marriage will
break, still you speak it.
You know you can't behave
that way in the office, you
behave that way and get
chucked out. Where is the
freedom in that? So the self
is behaving in a destructive
way because you have no
freedom, you have no choice
but feel as though you took
the decision, from your own
choice you spoke those words
and got chucked out.
That is a big illusion you
suffer from. But once you
become awakened, step out of
the mind, it's functioning
there. It can do anything -
it can do mathematics, it
can do physics, it can take
decisions - all on its own.
You would not be there
because you are just not
there. You never were there,
would will never be. The
whole thing is an illusion.
Once you come out, it's all
over. Then you can start
living.
The final transition very
often happens in three
minutes. YOu could have been
waiting for years then in
three minutes you just move
over to the other side.
So very soon it will soon
start happening for a lot of
people. By the day it is
increasing. I hope it will
soon happen to you.
Q: The question is about the
Chakras. Is there advice you
can you give us to balance
the Chakras - what daily
practice and are there
special foods that will
help?
B: There are certain
techniques for that but in
Oneness we do not use those
techniques. Instead we give
some teachings which if you
contemplate on they
automatically do the
Chakras. We do not have time
to go into the details,
another time we will review
those teachings. We have
teachings for the seven
Chakras and if they are
applied in daily life they
automatically do this.
The food that you are
asking. I don't know about
Western food, but in India
our wisdom is to go to an
Ayur Vedic doctor to work
out what Vatta, Pitta Kapha.
As humans we are born with a
certain ratio which cannot
be altered in life. It is
only when you are awakened
it is altered, otherwise
no.
Find out what exactly is
your constitution according
to Ayur Vedic principles and
then take those necessary
kind of foods. It can only
be based on the individual,
it cannot be a general
prescription, what is your
constitution - how much
Vatta, Pitta Kapha you are
born with. That has to be a
good doctor. Then according
to that whatever foods you
must take it and the Chakras
will be balanced. So I
recommend you consult an
Ayur Vedic doctor. There
could be other ways, but I
have no idea of them, I can
only speak about Ayur Veda.
