Growing Spiritually Every Moment

If every day of one’s life, if every hour and moment of our life, if it has to be a forward moment, if it has to be a process of growth and not stagnation. It is important that we’re n constant communion with that which is the ultimate truth in identifying ourselves with limited aspects of who we are. We are with many things. If you, I’ve seen in the families sometimes, different people have different plates to eat. In case you chain the plates and give, they will get big ornament. The plates don’t taste, nor can you eat them. It neither tastes good, nor does it nourish you, but the plate, this is my plate, I will not eat in your plate. A very important thing.

Anything that you touch, anything that you sit upon, anything that you set your eyes upon, you will identified. What this means is, let’s say you don’t know how to drive, there are many people who are doing this, particularly I see two-wheel drivers, you will see that brake light is always burning because they got the brake half down, and then one leg is down. This man is heading for a big mess. If you want to ride, both your legs should be up and your legs should be off the brake unless it’s needed. Have you seen people going around with a brake light on all the time? Because they got the brakes because they think it’s safe to keep the brakes down.

As you get tired and defied with this thing and that thing and that thing, you’re throwing your anchor hoping your ship will go somewhere, it will only sink. Only one place it can go. Not like this, it can go only like this. Satsanghatve nissangatvam means what these 4 lines are trying to tell you is just this, that if you’re in communion with truth, your associations will be just associations, not attachments. You will know involvement in life, but you will not know entanglement in your life because not because it’s right or wrong. With brakes on you try to go somewhere, you’ll burn yourself up, and then you think life is a miserable thing. Yes, if you have brakes fully on and try to drive, it is as if driving is a miserable process. No question about that.

If one has to constantly be on the move, if one has to let his life fly, not crawl, if one has to evolve, if evolution is an ongoing process for you, if your idea of evolution is only to the extent that Charles Darwin endorsed it, that is your spine got a little shorter. You know it used to be long and hanging out, now it got a little shorter. You can sit a little more comfortably. You don’t have to roll it up. If that is all is the idea of evolution, that’s one way to live. Little better than a monkey, but much more troublesome than a monkey. Much more destructive than a monkey. If that is the idea of evolution, it’s fine, but if you’re intention is to evolve as an ongoing process, every day, every hour, every moment, if you want to evolve, the brakes should go off. Only then it’ll roll.

If you’re driving a car or whatever, you don’t have to keep the throttle on all the time. If you have it on for some time and then leave it, depending upon the kind of telling you’re doing, it’ll keep rolling. As long as you don’t touch the brakes, it’s keeps rolling. Life is like that too. Spiritual process is like that too. It is like that too. You just press it and leave it, it keeps running, unless you’re braking all the time. Whatever you see, you’re getting attached to it. Whatever you see, you’re getting identified with it. If you identify yourself with anything, that is not you.

Obviously you are not mowing from untrue to truth, you’re mowing from truth to untruth. From reality to hallucinatory process. In this, one will not evolve. One will just entangle, because in this, you will not know the nature of your existence. In this, you will not touch anything that is real. The psychological drama will rise in such a big way. It will raise so much dust in your head that you can’t see what is in front of you. If a dust storm comes up here, you know, they think this is not possible. Suppose the storm came, you’re sitting here, there are conflicts here, but you cannot see because there is a screen. This is what is happening because you’re constantly raising the muck, because you’re identifying yourself with things that you are not. The moment you are identified with something that you’re not, you’re mowing, not from untruth to truth, but from truth to untruth.

What is the nature of my relationship, is not the problem. The problem is that you’re identifying yourself with that. You’re using substances other than yourself to create a sense of self. There is nothing in the existence which will substitute the self, because the only way, the only and only way you can experience anything for that matter is through the self. There is no other way. Your very existence is selfish, you must separate the word. Your very existence is self ish, because everything that happens, happens only to the self. There is no other way.

If you keep this just as it is, it is capable of reflecting the whole cosmos for you. If you muck it up, it doesn’t even show you what’s right in front of you. If you are in a state of denial or non-identification with anything other than what’s this, you will come naturally to an unwavering way of being. Once you’re unwavering in your purpose, liberation cannot be denied to you. There is no way it can be denied to you. The reason why this life does not get to its natural destination is every minute you’re changing course. Every minute, the focus of your life keeps shifting. Every minute, whatever you set your eyes upon, it gets identified with it. After some time, it just does not know where to go. It just will not know where to go. It will be one confusing mess. Suddenly life looks unnecessarily complicated. The complication is only in your psychological process.

Life is pretty simple, but it’s not in your hands. You’re just born, and you have to just die one day. Really. Is anybody else making anything else compulsory for you? Is anything else compulsory? Birth is compulsory. Death is compulsory. In between, whatever the hell you want. Simple, isn’t it? No, no, no, but, but, but, but, but that’s all yours. Only two things nature has set for you. You’re born, you have to die. Aren’t you glad you have come with an expiry date? Aren’t you glad? No? I’m glad. If there was no expiry date, could we make you meditate for a moment? Suppose you were immortal. Oh my God, could I tell you anything? Only because there’s an expiry date and the time keeps ticking, whether you live or you don’t live, whether you do something or you don’t do something, it just keeps going because it doesn’t wait for you. If you could halt it, you wouldn’t meditate, please say this. You wouldn’t do anything, because you cannot halt it. Just going.

By the moment, it’s getting closer. You think you want to get married? I’m telling you, that may happen on the way, but you’re going to die, that’s for sure. There are only one compulsion that you have to die, before that, whatever you do is yours. If you just understand this much, when you were born, there was no compulsions. You could be whichever way, only compulsion is stomach. Once stomach is full, there’s only other compulsion, that you have to die one day. Rest is easy, you know? You can complicate it if you want, but it’s actually very easy. You can do whatever you want.

Such a simple process, your mind complicates it like crazy. Insanely crazy. It makes it so complicated, waking up in the morning is such a complex process. Going through the day, an unbelievably complex process. Everything, just everything has become so complex. If you had to run conduct- If you have to conduct the audio system, I’m sorry. If you had to conduct your breath, if you had to conduct the rhythm of your heart, if you had to conduct the circulation of blood, if you had to conduct the cellular process, if you had to conduct the chemistry of your system, can you imagine? Just conduct your breath for 10 minutes, let me see. It goes all over the place.

If only you had to conduct the life process, I don’t know what would happen to you. You don’t have to conduct it, it’s all free. Breath is happening, everything is happening, yes? Whether you are aware or unaware, it’s happening. Whether you care about it or don’t care about it, it’s happening. This is all. Life just happens. You just have to die, and that also happens. You don’t have to do it. Just allowing everything to happen to you gracefully, that is all. Allowing life to happen gracefully, and when death comes, allowing death to happen gracefully. That’s all.
