Response to Mr Chandra regarding the Conscious Convergence
I read some very surprising remarks by Mr Chandra regarding my own work, the Mayan calendar and the Conscious Convergence that express an ignorance of the matters involved that it seems necessary to respond to them. First of all let me start by saying that the Mayan calendar is the only calendar of our planet that is based on the premise that consciousness is primary to matter. All other calendars are based on astronomical cycles. Take for instance the Hindu system of the Yugas, which takes its beginning with a certain astronomical constellation of planets in 3102 BC or the frequent use of the precessional cycle in Chaldean-European astrology and Buddhism. These are examples of expressions of the mind set where matter, in this case celestial bodies and their cycles, is primary to and determines consciousness. Likewise, the Gregorian, Muslim and Jewish calendars are all based on the Earth’s and the moon’s cycles and are hence connected to materialist philosophies. The astronomical basis of other calendars is the reason that the Mayan calendar alone points to the year 2012 and no other calendar system, including the Vedic, ever mentions this year.
This should be a cause of tremendous respect for the ancient Maya who developed the only non-astronomically based calendar system of our planet and also a cause for studying it seriously before it is discussed. For those that are serious about understanding the timing of events in the time ahead there is no way around actually studying the Mayan calendar and how the waves of consciousness that it describes are generated. In the recent year especially, when a hype has been created around the year 2012, this is all the more important since not everyone treats the Mayan calendar as the unique source of knowledge that it is. More often than not, people are trying to squeeze it into their already existing box of thinking and then miss the whole point. Especially since the Mayan calendar is not based on astronomical cycles it becomes imperative to understand how and when consciousness shifts take place according to this system.
Based on the study of the nine waves of evolving consciousness that the Mayan calendar desribes I have then personally become known throughout the world as a scientist who has demonstrated a model for the evolution of the cosmos in which, unlike in practically all other scientific models, consciousness is primary to matter. This was true both for my earlier books on history and even more so for The Purposeful Universe, which rewrites science to offer a logical and factually based model for all of evolution, including biological, in such a way that consciousness is primary to matter. Consciousness is a relationship with the divine expression of the Cosmic Tree of Life, which is not a physical structure but a Platonic three-dimensional organizer of space-time, what the Maya called the Heart of the Heavens. It is through the influence of the shifts between different states in the Cosmic Tree of Life that consciousness evolves. This happens according to a pre-set plan for such changes from the so called Big Bang about 15 billion years ago until October 28, 2011. Human consciousness evolves because we are created in the image of this Tree of Life and so are in resonance with its shifting quantum states. Some have talked about The Purposeful Universe as “probably the most important book written” (http://www.mindheartmedia.com/2c), but regardless of whether this assessment is shared or not I think it is a simple fact that it is not a book that can be ignored by anyone with a serious interest in science and spirituality. Mr Chandra’s claim that “we” differ from Mr Calleman, who thinks that consciousness is an epiphenomenon of matter is so absurd that I feel an apology is in its place and if nothing else it shows that he talks about things of which he knows nothing. How could consciousness evolve according to the pre-set plan of the Mayan calendar if it were an epiphenomenon of matter?
This brings us to the topic of the Conscious Convergence on July 17-18, 2010 (see
www.theconsciousconvergence.com), which seems to have triggered his remarks.
At this event, people all over the world will be gathering to set up the intention of manifesting unity consciousness in line with the incoming ninth wave of the Mayan calendar (Again, this is not a material phenomenon, but an altered relationship with the Heart of the Heavens timed according to the Mayan calendar). In this event the planetary Tree of Life will also be recreated ceremonially through the participation by groups in the four corners of the world. For the fist time ever some of the most well-known and respected elders of the Maya: Don Alejandro, Don Rigoberto Itzep and Hunbatz Men among others, will be signaling through their ceremonies in the West that “it is time.” In the East there will be a Chinese-Hindu convergence in Singapore and Bali. In the North people in Scandinavia will be gathering and in the South, at the roots of the global Tree of life will Bushmen, representatives of the oldest existing culture of our planet, for the first time ever be participating in an event of this kind together obviously with many others in South Africa. While of course people will be gathering in many other places as well a Medicine wheel based on the planetary Tree of Life will be recreated and so through a unifying ceremony we may reconnect with the source of the evolution of consciousness in preparation for its activation of a new wave, the ninth.
This event can be likened to setting up to a base camp for a climb to the ninth level of the Mayan evolution scheme, which is the one that will bring the transformation to unity consciousness and is activated March 9, 2011. The Conscious Convergence is thus placed according to the Mayan calendar ahead of this since it is a time for people to prepare spiritually and set the intention of being part of delivering the cosmic plan in relationship with the divine energies. It is for those that want to commit themselves to being co-creators in the cosmic plan and do not want to contend themselves with being passive observers of something they expect will happen at some date in the future. It is for those that intend to manifest unity consciousness in the time ahead and realize that this intention is expressed collectively as broadly as possible so that it will come to live a life of its own as a support for those that intend to make the climb (It is not realistic to believe that this shift will be easy since a shift to unity consciousness will also a bring a downfall of many established hierarchical structures that are not consistent with this). It is also very important that those that chose to be part of this intention setting event are authentic about setting this intention. It should not be done because, it “sounds good”, because your friends, a guru or a movement says so, but it is for those that are called from the inside to co-create the transformation to unity consciousness. This is the possibility for our planet, which is promised by the Mayan calendar. Personally, I believe it is now or never, but also that these two days will only be the beginning of a climb from which the new world will be created. If we do not broadly ask for this transformation of consciousness, not only for ourselves as individuals, but also as a committed collective, what right does humanity have to expect that it will happen?

World Oneness Day 100609, Message from Sri Bhagavan
100608”The growing inability to live as a family, to feel for each other and to connect to each other is a world-wide crisis. It is a relationship crisis. The crisis of our present day civilization is not so much biological as it is psychological. Our sense of separation having become too strong, life has become a battle for significance and a struggle for identity. The struggle to be a “somebody”, even at the expense of others and at the cost of hurting others is a very unhealthy sign. People destroy themselves emotionally, spiritually and physically. It is a disease and is most reflected in families today. Unless the family is held intact, individuals would go to pieces. They would miss a mother´s care, a father´s attention and a partner´s love. Loneliness and loss of identity would eat into them. To escape from loneliness and the fear of being a nobody, people would pursue destructive paths. This would ultimately lead to the break-up of the individual and the fragmentation of society and civilization itself. Though the world is heading in this direction; all is not lost. There is a beautiful window opening up for humanity to awaken into a new state of consciousness; that is – Awakening. When you are awakened you automatically start experiencing everything around you including your relationships. You feel a greater sense of connection to all people and all things. Emotional hurts are hard to sustain because awareness keeps consciousness empty; ready for a fresh experience. Life this way is so ordinary that it is extraordinary. You would begin to realize, this is how you always had been.”

Mayaelders deltar i Conscious Convergence
100601De Maya-åldermän kommer att delta i the Conscious Convergence
Tre Mayaåldermän, Don Alejandro Oxlay, Don Rigoberto Itzep och Hunbatz Men kommer att delta i the Conscious Convergence, den 17-18 juli 2010 och utföra ceremonier på dessa datum. Dessa tre Maya-åldermän är bland de mest respekterade och välkända representanterna för Mayafolket, dock med något olika roller i deras traditionen.
Hunbatz Men är förmodligen den mest välkända åldermannen från Yucatec-Maya och är initiativtagare till Maya Mystery Schools, (see http://www.themayas.com.mx/
Don Rigoberto Itzep leder "The Wajshakib Batz" (8 apor) ceremonierna i Momostenango i Guatemala, vilka spelar en betydelsefull roll för att uppehålla kalenderns kontinuitet genom initieringen av nya dagräknare. (see http://www.maya-portal.net/blog/ken/initiation_of_daykeeper_report_from_momostenango
or http://www.kachina.net/~alunajoy/wajshakib-batz.html).
Don Alejandro Oxlaj, Vandrande Vargen, http://www.shiftoftheages.com/, är talesman för Mayas 440 personer starka äldreråd samt också Grand Elder för de amerikanska ursprungsbefolkningarnas kontinentala råd.
Det är troligt att the Conscious Convergence kommer att observeras av många andra Äldre över hela Mayas land, när ryktet sprider sig. Deltagandet av Hunbatz Men och Don Alejandro har en speciell betydelse för att etablera en kontinuitet till Harmonic Convergence 1987, där de båda spelade en bidragande roll. Kärnteamet för the Conscious Convergence är glada att berätta om stödet från Mayas Äldre den 17-18 juli och genom detta önskar vi utöka kallelsen till andra ursprungsbefolkningar i världen att delta.

Vision for the Conscious Convergence, Carl Johan Calleman
100331My Vision for the Conscious Convergence,
July 17-18, 2010
The preparations to facilitate the Conscious Convergence, July 17‐18, 2010 have now begun. Even if it will need the support and active collaboration of a large number of people the snowball has started rolling. Very possibly, this will become an event that influences the course of our civilization by setting the intention to manifest unity consciousness on a large scale with the ninth wave of the Maya calendars. I would then now like to share my own vision of the Conscious Convergence, and what it may accomplish, in an article that does not have too much technical detail.
Over the time period since the Harmonic Convergence in August of 1987, and maybe even earlier than that, an increasing number of people, and not just a few select mystics, have come to directly experience states of unity with all things and a purposeful direction in their own lives. Yet, although sometimes such experiences may have been enlightening or blissful, they have not come to alter the way our world at large operates. While this fact may not surprise us there is really no reason that this should be taken as a given. Such experiences, sometimes resulting from spiritual practices, have clearly been at odds with both the predominating materialist worldview and the one that sees the divine as something separate from ourselves. An increasing number of people have thus come to directly experience that some “energies” greater than themselves are working to provide guidance for them. In everyday parlance we talk about certain things having been “meant to happen” and other things “not meant to happen.” This direct experience of guiding energies is a relatively recent undercurrent of our civilization. It also intensifies as the frequency of shifts between calendrical energies increases as we approach the completion of the Mayan calendars. It is as if, through this frequency increase, the cosmic plan is now calling us to wake up and realize that we are here for a reason and that the universe has a plan. This ongoing awakening has generated a fairly widespread perception that the end of the Mayan calendars will bring a “shift in consciousness”.
Such experiences are of course made sense of in a multitude of different ways, sometimes in terms of divine intervention or astrology, depending on the individual. Yet, they always seem to imply that the universe has a higher purpose. The perception of such a purposeful direction may be the least common denominator for those that will chose to participate in the Conscious Convergence. On my own part I have come to understand what is “meant” and “not meant” to happen primarily from the broad perspective of the Mayan calendars, simply because of the vast body of scientific evidence showing that the energies these describe have been driving evolution in all of its aspects from the beginning of time.
In parallel with the increase in individual experiences of guidance there has also been a number of initiatives to organize meditations or other global spiritual events on special days that often focus on a positive cause such as peace. What I feel we need to realize however is that despite these experiences of individual or collective unity, those that embody them still remain largely fragmented. As yet, the intention to manifest unity consciousness has thus not been firmly anchored in our world. Someone who meditates is perceived as doing so as a private act and as part of his or her individual path. A meditation to heal the earth is seen as a basically uncommitted event of a day or two before things go back to “business as usual”. In society at large and its media it is relegated to a fringe phenomenon, despite the large number of people embracing it. I however feel that the Conscious Convergence will be, and has to be, a unique event that is something more than just another global meditation. It is about anchoring an intention to manifest unity consciousness on an ongoing basis.
The current fragmentation of both individuals and groups is a critical point. It is here I believe the Conscious Convergence will enter into the picture to give hope and visions for the future. Part of the reason that the intention towards unity consciousness has not been anchored in the consensus reality is that events may not have gathered a critical mass. I feel however that a more important factor has been that individual experiences and events have not always been perceived as steps in a cosmic time plan that has a clear direction towards unity consciousness. This absence of a context in time has probably had much more far reaching consequences than most people recognize. It has affected not only the role of those that have become awakened, but also a broad range of grass root movements focusing on progressive socioeconomic change. If such movements are unable to see how their aspirations are part of a cosmic time plan for the planet they too will be fragmented and their fruits often be temporary or incorporated in the already existing dualist civilization.
The fragmentation of the experiences of unity consciousness, and the absence of a collectively existing intention to manifest this, thus have consequences that go farther, much farther, than most people would tend to believe. It influences a very high number of organizations and projects that are potentially healthy to our planet because these, and the social movements they give rise to, exist without a context in time. All such movements that intend to manifest a world of unity consciousness may thus benefit from their participation in the Conscious Convergence exactly because this provides such a temporal framework. From this also follows an interest of the powers that be to suppress information about the Mayan calendar that may serve as inspiration and encouragement for those desiring a new course for our civilization.
The big media, including but not limited to Hollywood, have thus touted a distorted view of the Mayan calendar as simply a date in the future when something dramatic is supposed to happen. It is here almost irrelevant whether this change is seen as positive or negative, since such a view is so totally at odds with the Mayan calendar to begin with. The message of the media has thus been: “Do not take responsibility for co-creating the future! Just wait and see!” Nothing could be further from a Mayan perspective, and the truth, than an obsession with a singular date in the future, when something is supposed to just fall down on us from the sky. The Mayan calendar describes processes, processes that have been going on from the beginning of time and step by step have been lifting human beings to higher frames of consciousness. As part of this, humanity is now heading towards the initiation of a new process, the ninth wave, that is meant to take us to a place of unity consciousness where we have never been before. Hence, the solutions of the past are not particularly likely to be applicable and so we are now called to develop a new level of creativity.
The Mayan calendars have thus come to be perceived in a disempowering way, rather than as guiding tools for positive social and spiritual transformation. The reason for this is mainly that it is not generally known that there is not merely one, but in fact nine, calendars that are about to be completed. Each of these calendars describes a wave movement of evolution and it is the ninth of these that is designed to bring the unity consciousness that represents the current hope of mankind as it provides a necessary starting point for the birth of a new world. Yet, unless there is a conscious collective intention to affirm this ninth wave what is the likelihood that this will manifest? One might even ask whether without such an intention to manifest unity consciousness, anyone has reason to complain if it is not brought forth? To have this happen we need to align with this calendar in time, otherwise I believe we will lose our power to influence the course of events. The Conscious Convergence is thus set so that we will be able to prepare ourselves for the coming energies in advance and so be able to align with them. Unlike the Harmonic Convergence in 1987 that was a relatively spontaneous event, I, for one, believe that the Conscious Convergence in 2010, due to the current high speed of time, will need to be unified by a common intention in order to make a difference. As we approach the simultaneous manifestation of the nine waves there will be complicated overlappings of waves that may be difficult to surf without such a shared intention.
My vision for the Conscious Convergence is that it will be an event that helps people break out of the current constraints and fragmentation and facilitates for us to co‐create our future especially as now many of the established structures of society may be falling apart. With the impending unity consciousness many things that are not consistent with this are in fact becoming visible in the new light. An increasing number of people are losing faith in churches (Ireland and US), mosques (Iran) as well as bankers and politicians (all over), and so much of the previous functioning of the world may be overturned. It then becomes all the more important to establish an intention of manifesting unity consciousness as a basis for novel solutions. I however do not think that the Conscious Convergence is for those that contend themselves by pointing out and criticizing all the negative aspects of our current world and its system of rule. Rather it is for those that want to create a more positive intention, anchor this broadly and manifest it in the world.
An intention to manifest unity consciousness thus does not only serve to guide ourselves or our individual development, but here it also refers to the possibility that it may guide our civilization at large. Such a collectively shared intention held by a critical mass of people may start to live a life of its own and give a direction to a wide variety of projects. If this is to happen it is however critical that the intention is authentically held and not coming from a desire to look good in our own eyes, or in those of our friends, teachers or gurus. Only an intention authentically shared by a critical mass of sovereign individuals may play a positive role for co‐creating our future. Conscious Convergence then means that it is for people who are conscious of their intentions.
Unity consciousness does not mean conformism or that everyone is shaped in the same mold to think or look alike. Rather, unity consciousness will generate a world that is the very opposite to conformist. Because unity consciousness is about transcending the judgmental dualities and inherent dominance mentality generated by lower waves it allows for a much wider variety of viewpoints and life styles than previously. Thus, the Conscious Convergence refers to the coming together, convergence, of people from many different walks of life with very different backgrounds and viewpoints to express and experience a shared intention for the future.
The two initial days, July 17‐18, 2010, may be days for individual experiences of awakening as well as a collective expression of a new commitment to climb to the highest level of the Mayan calendar and co-‐create a world truly based on peace. I for one however do not believe that the continued climb will be easy and no one knows exactly how long time it will take until the new world based on this new consciousness stabilizes. Yet, I also know that it is only through a shared intention aligned with the cosmic plan that there is any reasonable hope for a future. The Conscious Convergence is thus also about retrieving the Mayan calendar to its rightful place as a guide on the common path towards a world based on unity consciousness. In a time of dramatic change it becomes all the more important to have a firmly anchored intention to relate to as we approach the full completion of all nine calendars. I believe that only such an intention, existing on the level of our civilization, may serve to give us guidance in a time when the old social structures will very possibly disintegrate. The Hopi prophecy for instance urges us to gather ourselves and be good to each other. They warn that the time of the lone wolf is over. We can only survive if we cooperate on achieving common goals. This is obvious to any faithful Christian as well.
Many people realize that there will be a need to recreate our civilization in the time ahead and if nothing else a series of natural disasters have told people that this may now have reached a dead end. To get out of this dead end, many are suggesting profound changes of our current economic and social system in order for humanity to survive into a better world. This points to the Conscious Convergence also as an event for networking in a very broad sense. If the Conscious Convergence can gather people that are seeking this new direction and experience that they have the energies of the cosmic plan on their back then I would say that my vision of this event will have been fulfilled. It is however also part of my vision that millions will share their own visions based on this common intention of manifesting unity consciousness. The preparations for the ninth wave would allow many positive aspirations to be anchored in a purposeful process. When millions are taking the stand that there is a higher purpose to this planet than just to end in a series of disasters then I believe providence will move. When millions are showing each other that they too see a higher purpose to life, and intend to manifest it together, then a significant step towards the fulfillment of the cosmic plan will have been taken.

Viktigt meddelande från Sri Bhagavan!!! 100322
100322Sri Bhagavan has been feeling for many months that vast changes will occur after March 18th, 2010. Sri Bhagavan just announced that he will be fully activating the Oneness Phenomena to run at 100% power!
In accordance with this major leap in this work, Sri Bhagavan is announcing these new changes to take immediate effect:
Oneness Trainers will discontinue all Oneness Experience Courses, and immediately begin holding 3 day Oneness Awakening Courses.
There will only be two Courses / Programs offered here at Oneness University. One is the Oneness Trainer Course, and the other is the Oneness Deepening Process.
All Level 1 and Level 2 Courses will be ending on the last dates currently posted on the website campus calendar.
The Oneness Deepening Process is a very intense Deepening Process offered everyday Wednesday – Sunday from 6:30pm to 8:30pm inside the Hall for Awakening (Oneness Temple). It is a 2 hour process. This Deepening Process is open to everyone who wants to attend. It is a free course being offered only to people who are staying on the Oneness University Campus.
Web Casts with Sri Amma and/or Sri Bhagavan will be generally given twice a year, August 15th, and March 7th, and occasionally if there is an important message Sri Amma Bhagavan would like to share with the Oneness Community. They are doing this because they want to empower the Trainers to lead the way, and give the job of Awakening into the hands of Humanity and start to slowly fade away from the work more and more as they have always wished to do! The role of Sri Amma and Bhagavan will be done through the Mukthi Deeksha! (Mukthi is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning Liberation.)
As all of you know, the primary purpose of Oneness is to give liberation from the mind. This is the natural state in which human beings are supposed to be living. As Sri Bhagavan shares, “Humanity cannot make it on their own; Awakening has to be given to them.”
For the past 20 years, the work of Oneness University has been to prepare people to receive the state of Awakening. After many years now, Sri Bhagavan feels strongly that Humanity is now ready for the actual state of Awakening.
Bhagavan said that "We are transferring the power to you today. We have initiated the process of dissolution which we said would start in 2014, we have initiated that today."

Medelvägen enligt Bhagavan
100316Medelvägen
De 7 balanserna
Oneness rekommenderar Medelvägen, eller De 7 balanserna, som ett bra verktyg för uppvaknande.
1:a balansen – undvik extremerna av säkerhet och osäkerhet.
2:a balansen – undvik extremerna av njutning och avhållsamhet.
3:e balansen – undvik extremerna av dominans och undergivenhet.
4:e balansen – undvik extremerna av habegär och liknöjdhet.
5:e balansen – undvik extremerna av uppgivenhet och extremt sökande.
6:e balansen – undvik extremerna av vårdslöshet och perfektionism.
7:e balansen – undvik extremerna av analys och syntes (sammanställning).
Bhagavans teaching 7 mars
100312Bhagavans teaching 7 mars
Detta säger Bhagavan i en webb cast med London och Frankrike 7 mars:
Varje 7 mars vrids kraften upp, och denna 7 mars i synnerhet eftersom vi närmar oss 2012. Så i morgon kommer den att vara enormt mycket starkare. Ni kommer att kunna se det mycket dramatiskt, på det sätt mirakel händer, hur folks problem löser sig, och det blir också en förändring i perceptionen (uppfattningen av verkligheten). Du kommer att märka att det är väldigt dramatiskt.
Hur som helst, från 18 mars kommer det att bli ännu kraftfullare. Efter 11 dagar kommer kraften att bli mycket, mycket kraftfull. Om du är känslig kommer du att kunna förnimma det.
Hur ska vi då använda denna ökade kraft? Jag har ofta sagt – livet är relationer. Så nu…om du skulle…låt oss säga att du har en familj. Om du kunde acceptera din fru eller man fullständigt och totalt, utan dömande, utan att försöka förändra den andre, utan att försöka förstå den andre med psykologi eller andra saker, bara acceptera personen som han eller hon är.
Om du började idag eller i morgon och fortsatte i en månad eller så, så skulle du snabbt bli medveten om: Herre Gud, jag har fördömt, jag har försökt förstå vad som händer. Och är du inte gift så kan det vara med dina föräldrar, och finns inte de heller kan det vara en vän som du ibland har motstånd emot, ibland vill ska vara annorlunda, något sådant. Inte någon av motsatt kön, det är ok med man och hustru, eller bror och syster, men inte med vänner
Så om du börjar öva detta så kommer du, tack vare den enormt ökande Grace, att nå excellenta resultat inom en månads tid, och bli förbluffad att se vilka förändringar som har hänt i dig, Du kan tom komma mycket nära ett uppvaknande själv. Så det är budskapet för detta året, 7 mars.

Hierarkin monteras ner av Sri Bhagavan
100301Här talar Bhagavan om hur hierarkin monteras ned. Dasas (lärarna vid Oneness University) är nu vänner. Han säger t o m att bara man använder ordet dasa eller acharya så stoppas det gudomliga flödet...
Bhagawan: I don’t know if I have spoken it in this Satsangh but I have spoken it in other Satsanghs all over India so we are...we have dismantled the spiritual structure and that’s the reason why the power is picking up as we have dismantled the structure. The phenomenon is unleashed and it’s acquiring tremendous power and the Mukti is being delivered. So as a consequence, you must know that there are no Dasas in the order. No Dasas, no Acharyas, nobody like that. The structure is completely gone. My son is not my successor, no Dasas....because they can’t succeed. Nobody succeeds Amma Bhagawan; so the only tools we have are you people. You are the ones who will succeed; you are the ones we have got to train and handover the power so you have to get ready for that by year 2014.
The first step is that the structure is being dismantled so there are no Acharyas, no Dasas. I would like to give you a small word of caution. If by any chance if you were to utter the word ‘Acharya’ and ‘Dasa’, all grace will be instantly cut off, not even an atom of grace will come for you. That you will have to be very clear, absolutely clear. It’s exactly like your cell phone, the moment you stop playing your bills, the cell phones cease to function, it’s remotely controlled, no? The same thing here also, all things are remotely controlled and the moment you do that, grace will stop. So no more question of…the words should not come at all. They are just my friends and helping me in this work. Before 2014, many of them would have retired and would have gone back to lead normal lives and I will be helping them to settle down in life and continue with their work. They are fully taken care of for their lives. Of course you must help me in helping them. And just like you, they’d be settling down and you will be also good enough to pick up some good bridegrooms for them or good brides for them.
Bhagawan: ‘Dasas’, that must go out of your system and then you will be facing towards Mukti or Awakening. But if you use the word ‘Dasa’ or get attached to them somewhere, no hope for you. Directly relate to God, that’s all. No middle men, no middle women. Mukti is happening because the middle people have been removed. The obstruction has been removed therefore, it’s very very fast.
Bhagavans Teachings for February
100301Alla dina tankar, det du säger, det du gör, händer automatiskt. Du är inte alls inblandad. Det är en illusion att tro att du är inblandad. Det är en illusion att tro att du är den som gör nånting, att du tänker, att du talar, att du agerar. Allt händer automatiskt. Att det finns någon som gör något är en illusion.
Nu vill jag att ni under februari kontemplerar över detta: Ja, jag är inte den som gör något. Mina tankar bara flödar genom mig, det jag säger händer automatiskt, och allt jag gör sker automatiskt.
Det är vad som verkligen händer för alla människor. Eftersom du inte är uppvaknad, eftersom du inte är upplyst, ser du det som att du gör det själv. Det är anledningen till att sitta fast. Det är anledningen till lidande.
När du blir upplyst kommer du att vara som vanligt, dina vanliga tankar kommer att flöda, du kommer att säga som vanligt, agera som vanligt. Det enda är att DU inte kommer att vara där. Du kommer inte att vara känslomässigt kopplad till det. Du kommer inte att identifiera dig med det. Du kommer inte att känna att det är du som gör något. Allt händer av sig själv.
Det är dit vi måste komma. Så jag kommer att ge många mer teachings som du bör kontemplera över, och för februari är det detta. Detta är läxan för februari.
Bhagavans Teachings for January
100301Bhagavans teaching for January:
“To see is to be free”…that happens for a short time but then for it to continue, you have to watch the naming process in which the mind indulges. The problem is with the naming process. Like for example, if a child would look at a tree, it does not call it a tree, it does not know what it is but it is nevertheless experiencing the tree. On the other hand, you say that it is a coconut tree or a mango tree or whatever tree it is, and then you say what a nice fruit it has, I’d like to have it…and then the whole commentary starts.
Actually, what is happening is happening there, that’s all, over which you have no control. The whole universe is involved in it. But you call it a negative thought, you call it a negative emotion, you call it jealousy, lust, anger, hatred. The problem is not with anger, not with jealousy, not with hatred but it is with your naming. Why do you call it anger, lust, hatred? Why do you name it? Whatever is there is there. And whether the thought is lust or God, both are equally sacred because God is both and there’s nothing but God only. The universe is God and God is the universe. So how could you say that this is bad..this is good? Obviously you can’t say that. Unless we have the high and the low, the up and the down, the front and the back, there can be no creation.
If you have an electron, you must have the proton. If you have matter, you must have anti matter. You can’t do without both sides and that’s the essential principle of creation. So they’ll all be there and I have often told you...It’s not your mind, it’s the human mind. It has been so and it will be so. The structure has not changed. Jealousy, anger, hatred, lust all remain the same, fear everything ......but the objects of fear have changed, the object of lust has changed , the object of jealousy has changed, maybe it was a spear now it’s a bunglow or a car. Only the object of desire and object of all these emotions have changed but they are very much the same..does not change and it will not change.
What you are hoping is that the mind will change. No, the mind will not change. The problem is that you say, “I suffer from anger”…that is where you become unenlightened. Now, there are some tribes in the world who are more or less some kind of awakened people. Their language is very strange. They won’t say “I am Angry”. In their language they say that, “I angrying, I jealousying, I fearing” because they are seeing it as actually happening. That’s all. So that word fear...there’s no naming at all. Just to say that something is happening. Not that ‘I have fear’, ‘I have anger’. These are the people who make it very very easily. The problem with you is that you are stuck in the labeling / naming.
Now, when you keep watching, you will see how the mind is involved in this trick or game of naming. That’s where the problem starts. Now, that will help you up to a point. But the thing is that your mind is ever going to be the same. Whether it’s you or for Ramana Maharishi or for Buddha, the mind cannot be changed. What has happened to them is that they have come out of the mind. They no more identify (themselves) with the mind. Now, you will say that ‘This is my mind’. That is ‘Anaatma’. Anaatma in Sanskrit means false identification. And why is there this false identification? Because of what we call in Sanskrit ‘Pragnaaparaadha’ or failure of intelligence; which is what we try to awaken in level 2.
Now intelligence has flowered in Ramana or Buddha or Ramakrishna Paramhansa. And therefore they don’t identify with their mind. Their mind is just like some other animal going on the road. What do you do with a cow on the road? You do nothing, the same thing with your mind also. It’s just there. You should not think that your mind will change. No, you will no more identify with your mind. You just come out of it, you will be pulled out.
The problem is you are all living in a prison. The strangest thing is that you do not even know you are in a prison. You’ve have so beautifully decorated the prison. Nice dining table, curtains, air conditioner, and kitchen everything is there. But that does not mean you are really enjoying it. There is no true enjoyment. But then you have been able to manage your suffering. You all got an MBA in the art of managing your suffering. For what is the dining table, that is the security of your husband. What’s the kitchen? That’s the security of your wife. What are small chairs? They are for the children, air conditioners are for your parents; or name or fame. So name, fame and all attachments, they are the furniture of the house. That’s being nicely put in a place and I am all for it. So but then you got to realise that still it’s only a prison. And then you must try to come out of the prison because you are not living.
That’s why on our channel we say ‘(From) Existing to Living’. You are just existing...you are mechanically living your life from morning to night, year after year and finally what is there...Nothing, it’s the end of it. So in order to live, you must come out of the mind. There is a lock inside which you must blast open. How? By realising that you are in a prison. But still you cannot come out. We who are outside will come and blast the lock outside and pull you out. This is called Mukti or Awakening. That we will do.

2a Harmoniska Konvergensen –
27-30 Maj 2010:
Skapa avsikten att uppnå enhetsmedvetande
med Mayakalenderns nionde våg!
av Carl Johan Calleman
Den enda forntida Mayainskrift som beskriver betydelsen av kalenderns slut, Tortuguero-monumentet nr 6, säger att vid den tidpunkten så kommer nio-stegs-“väsendet”, Bolon Yookte, (Fig 1) att nedstiga.”1 Vad detta betyder på modern språk är att en kombination av nio kosmiska krafter, nio vågrörelser som skapar universum, samtidigt kommer att manifesteras fullt ut. I detta Mayafolkets eget sätt att se på innebörden av slutet på deras kalender finns det alltså inte något som talar om att jorden skulle gå under. Snarare handlar kalendersystemet om en fullbordan, eller förverkligande, av evolutionära processer som har pågått sedan universums födelse och lett till den värld som vi lever i idag. Dessa nio kosmiska krafter är de nio stegvisa utvecklingarna (Undervärldarna), var och en genom tretton energier, som Mayas kalendersystem är uppbyggd på, ett system som korrelerar extremt väl med betydelsefulla händelser i den biologiska och historiska evolutionen. De nio olika progressionerna i tretton steg utvecklar var och en en särskild ram för medvetandet och den nionde och högsta av dessa vågrörelser kommer att bära med sig ett slutligt skifte till enhetsmedvetande som kommer att kulminera när kalendern kommer till sitt slut. Jag tror dock här att det är av avgörande betydelse att dessa nio kosmiska krafter inte uppfattas som något från människorna avskilt utan att de bara manifesteras i den utsträckning som människor sätter sig i resonans med dem.
Dessa nio vågrörelser utvecklas var och en med en egen rytm på ett sådant sätt att de skapar en upplevelse av en uppsnabbning av tiden. Ju högre frekvens vågen har desto högre är utvecklingsnivån. I detta schema så har vi nu kommit till den sjätte natten av den åttonde vågen, den Galaktiska. Det är med andra ord bara en ytterligare våg som behöver aktiveras, som kommer att utvecklas med den högsta hastigheten och det är den universella, eller nionde, vågen i Mayas kalendersystem. Detta är vågen med den högsta frekvensen i Mayakalenderns hela schema över skapelsen, och eftersom den avrundar och avslutar hela skapelseprocessen så kan man förvänta sig att den spelar en mycket speciell roll. Det är som en förberedelse till denna något mystiska våg som jag uppmuntrar till firandet av den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen, 27-30 maj 2010 som n tidpunkt för att fokusera på att utveckla resonansen med den högsta och avgörande vågen i Mayas kalendersystem, den nionde vågen.
Vilka sorts förändringar kommer denna nionde våg att medföra för människolivet? Till att börja med kan man notera att många människor har en intuitiv känsla av att Mayakalenders avslutning kommer att medföra ett medvetandeskifte. Ändå uttrycks det ganska sällan mer exakt hur och varför det skulle komma att ske eller vad som är dess källa. Men kanske är ett medvetandeskifte i själva verket inte så mystiskt som många har letts till att tro. Medvetandeskiften har till exempel pågått från tidens begynnelse och fortsätter att hända närhelst det är ett betydelsefullt energiskifte i Mayakalendern, som till exempel mellan någon av dess DAGAR och NÄTTER. Trots alla dessa tidigare medvetandeskiften under den kosmiska historiens gång så tror jag dock att det är något mycket speciellt och betydelsefullt med det nya medvetande som vi kan förvänta oss att den nionde vågen skapar. Detta är att den medför ett skifte till enhetsmedvetande i vilket människans sinne inte längre domineras av några mörka filter (se Fig 2). Vi kommer med andra ord att bli ”genomskinliga” och jag tror att det är just denna sorts medvetandeskifte som många väntar på. Inte bra vilket medvetande som helst utan ett som överskrider det förflutnas dualiteter och hjälper människorna att se enheten i allt. Anledningen att denna sorts enhetsmedvetande kan vara välgörande för planeten, och för mänskligheten, är att detta leder till ett överskridande av all separation (mellan man och kvinna, människa och natur, härskare och behärskad osv.) Jag tror att om ett sådant medvetandeskifte inte manifesterar sig så kommer förr eller senare jorden att gå under eftersom individer med ett dualistiskt och åtskiljande medvetande fungerar som ett slaga cancerceller i jordens kropp som fortsätter att expandera på dess bekostnad. Endast ett skifte till enhetsmedvetande kommer att för alltid att sätta ett stopp för det obegränsade utnyttjandet av jordens resurser som nu pågår. På en djupare nivå kan det få oss att förstå att vi är en del av skapelsen och måste leva i harmoni med denna.
Som nämnts ovan så har medvetandeskiften sitt ursprung i resonansen med de kosmiska krafter som beskrivs av Mayakalendern. Och även om en del kan ha upplevt medvetandeskiften och alltings enhet så är det bara i den utsträckning som ett sådant medvetandeskifte induceras globalt i enlighet med den kosmiska planen, på det sätt som vi kan förstå från Mayakalendern, som det kan ha varaktiga konsekvenser. Med den nionde vågen kan ett skifte till enhetsmedvetande dock betraktas som något vars tid verkligen har kommit. Det är denna våg som kommer att vara pricken över i-et på mänsklighetens tidigare evolution och bygga den bro som kommer att tillåta oss att gå in i den nya värld som kommer att följa på kalenderns slut. Å andra sidan så vet den som är kunnig om Mayakalendern att för att ett medvetandeskifte skall manifestera sig så måste människorna vara i resonans med det och någon gång också göra åtminstone ett undermedvetet val att omfattas av det. Ett storskaligt medvetandeskifte är alltså inte något som kan ske mot människornas vilja. Det kan bara ske genom att människor väljer att fungera som medskapare, och detta gäller i synnerhet för de högsta nivåerna på pyramiden.
Så vad kommer att krävas av människorna för att det skall ske ett medvetandeskifte? Som många läsare av denna artikel kan ha upplevt så existerar det många andliga utövanden, helandetekniker och metoder för personlig utveckling som faktiskt åtminstone tillfälligt ger upphov till tillfälliga medvetandeskiften och upplevelser av alltings enhet. Ändå så tror jag inte att det är möjligt att hitta någon gyllene kungsväg som garanterat ger upphov till ett sådant tillstånd och jag tror att vi bör vara både ödmjuka och ha en öppen attityd till hur ett enhetsmedvetande kan skapas. Till dess att den nionde vågen sveper genom kosmos och över jorden så kanske vi faktiskt inte riktigt kan veta vad som fungerar för detta syfte. Detta betyder dock inte att vi kan eller måste bara vänta och se. Idén bakom den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen, den 27-30e maj 2010, är att det finns en sak som alltid står i vår makt att göra, och står i alla människors makt att göra, är att skapa en intention till ett enhetsmedvetande. All kreativitet börjar med en intention och utan en intention sker ingenting. Den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen är för alla dem som avser att skapa ett skifte till ett enhetsmedvetande. Vad du en tror på och vilken världsbild som du än omfattar så finns alltid möjligheten att skapa en intention till ett enhetsmedvetande och detta är de datum då detta måste påbörjas om det skall ske i samklang med den kosmiska tidsplanen. Utan att det skapas en sådan intention så är det inte troligt att det någonsin blir ett skifte till enhetsmedvetande på denna planet vare sig individuellt eller kollektivt.
På grundval av skapandet av en sådan intention för ett enhetsmedvetande i den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen så tycks det naturligt att människor också kommer att vilja utföra ceremonier och delta i andliga övningar som är manifestationer av just ett sådant enhetsmedvetande och söka olika sorters vägar att permanenta ett sådant skifte. Eftersom den i själva verket faller på dagarna för sådden i en ny Helig Kalender runda (1 Alligator och 2 Vind) så kan den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen innebära början på en process mot ett fördjupat enhetsmedvetande som aldrig upphör. Den kan komma att innebära in ingång till den nionde vågens kreativa inriktning som vi kanske aldrig skall försöka hoppa av. Att börja dagligen följa Mayakalendern från denna tidpunkt inom ramen för den nionde vågen kan i själva verket i sig själv vara en betydelsefull faktor för att utveckla enhetsmedvetande, eftersom den gör dig medveten om den tidsram inom vilken detta medvetande skall uppnås. Projekt blir bara verkliga när de har tidsramar.
Det tycks viktigt att manifestationer som kopplas till den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen planeras mycket omsorgsfullt och i den utsträckning som är möjligt uttrycker det nya enhetsmedvetandet och inte bara består av rutinartade uttryck för den värld vi har levt i. Om till exempel artistframträdanden ingår i firandet, så tycks det klokt att fundera över i vilken utsträckning dessa stärker upplevelsen av alltings enhet eller om de skapar en känsla av separation mellan artisterna och publiken. Samma sak kan tänkas gälla utförandet av ceremonier om den som leder dem inte har en förmåga att inkludera alla i den på ett likaberättigat sätt. Ett bra exempel på en ceremoni som är ett uttryck för enhetsmedvetande är enligt min mening upptagandet av Jack Sully i folket på Pandora i filmen Avatar. Om man i den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen använder sig av tekniker för andlig utveckling som är etablerade och värdefulla så bör man tänka igenom om de i onödan sätter en grundare eller guru på en piedestal och om just den sidan av saken kan avvaras. Kanske tysta aktiviteter med låg profil och en djup upplevelse av gemenskap i själva verket är de kraftfullaste manifestationerna av ett enhetsmedvetande. Dessa saker måste de lokala arrangörerna bestämma, och jag vill bara här ge uppmärksamhet åt att man bör närma sig detta med helt nya ögon och en enhetsmedvetandets kreativitet som genomlyser det sätt som saker har gjorts på tidigare.
Namnet den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen hänvisar naturligtvis till den 1a Harmoniska Konvergensen, August 17-18, 1987, som var den första gången i modern tid som en större händelse baserad på Mayakalendern firats. Det är därför viktigt att diskutera förhållandet mellan de två och varför efter så många år det kommer en andra 27-30 maj, 2010. Till att börja med kan vi då lägga märke till en viktig, men inte speciellt unik, likhet mellan de två och det är att de firas på de två första dagarna 1 Alligator och 2 vind, av en helig 260 dagars Mayakalender-runda. (Den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen inkluderar två ytterligare dagar, 3 Härd och 4 Ödla, på veckoslutet som kan vara mer gynnsamt för gemensamma aktiviteter.) En viktigare relation mellan de två Konvergenserna är emellertid att de båda (i huvudsak) placerade vid dubbleringstiden för de 8e och 9e vågorna i Mayakalendern och sålunda reflekterar energiskiften som varslat om de respektive medvetandetransformationerna som själva dessa vågor har inneburit. (se fig 3). Uttryckt i andra termer: Vad den 1a Harmoniska Konvergensen betydde för kvantsprånget till den åttonde vågen kommer den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen att betyda för kvantsprånget till den nionde vågen.2 Vi kan utvidga denna parallell ytterligare genom att inkludera en jämförelse med den sjunde vågen och lägga märke till vad som hände vid dennas dubbleringspunkt, men en hel bok skulle krävas för att täcka detta viktiga ämne.
Vad vi kan se från dessa paralleller är att den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen inte i sig själv är början på den nionde vågen, som inte startar tills den 11e februari 2011.3 Snarare så initierar detta firande den våg som föregår och lägger grunden för den nionde vågen och direkt leder in i denna. Den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen är oerhört betydelsefull som en punkt för att skapa intentionen till ett enhetsmedvetande även om detta inte kommer att utvecklas fullt förrän under den nionde vågen. Kanske kommer det i själva verket vara mänsklighetens sista chans att sätta en sådan intention, vilken nästan med nödvändighet måste existera på förhand hos dem som vill kunna lyfta sig över mycket av de ekonomiska svårigheter som vi kan vänta oss under åren framöver. Med mitt eget sätt att se ligger hoppet inför framtiden i att lära sig surfa på den nionde vågen och på så vis överskrida snarare än att bli fångad i de lägre Undervärldarnas dualiteter. Om detta stämmer så måste man också förvänta sig att den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen kommer att mötas med mycket motstånd från alla de krafter som försvarar den gamla världens ego-baserade sätt att fungera och de massiva hierarkier som detta har genererat. En kommersiell media-industri har uppstått kring ”2012”, där olika ”experter” spekulerar om vad som kommer att hända som om detta vore oberoende av vilka intentioner och kreativ inriktning människor har och denna tar ifrån människorna deras makt att förändra.
Den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen avser att vara en mycket inkluderande event som omfattar alla som delar avsikten att vi skall uppnå ett enhetsmedvetande oavsett vad de tror på i övrigt. I dag finns det massvis med högst olika idéer bland annat på Internet, som avser att förklara och beskriva ”2012”-fenomenet och denna situation är naturligtvis mycket förvirrande för den som vill försöka förstå hur den verkliga historien ser ut. Det är dessutom knappast troligt att denna situation bara kommer att försvinna och omedelbart ersättas av allmän klarhet. Idén bakom den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen är att mitt i detta virrvarr erbjuda ett gemensamt fokus för alla dem avser en övergång till enhetsmedvetande oavsett vilken syn de har i detalj om Mayakalendern eller något annat. Det handlar om att positivt och konstruktivt dra fördel av ett speciellt ”window of opportunity” och kräver bara av oss att vi inser att medvetandeskiftet måste utgå ifrån de utvecklingsprocesser som vi för närvarande är en del av. Ett skifte till enhetsmedvetande är inte något som bara kommer att falla ner på oss från himlen vid något datum i framtiden utan kan bara utvecklas från den punkt som vi befinner oss på nu. Det är en grundläggande princip i detta universum att försynen bara hjälper den som har ett ”commitment”.
För att denna event skall bli framgångsrik för att generera avsikten att skifta till den nionde vågens medvetande så kommer ett massivt deltagande bli nödvändigt också när det gäller förberedelsearbetet. Förberedelsearbetet måste delas av de miljoner som önskar att ett sådant medvetandeskifte skall ske. För att genomföra detta kommer en kollektiv ansträngning att krävas och i själva verket så är redan valet att delta en del av att skapa den avsikten till en medvetenhetsförändring. Inledningsvis kommer det att finnas ett stort behov av att människor sprider kallelsen till den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen över världen. Detta inkluderar att skapa en internetnärvaro genom sajter, bloggar och social media samt göra det en del av andra former av nätverk. Det kommer också att finnas ett stort behov av finansiering av många aktiviteter. Slutligen kommer det att finnas ett behov av organisation och kreativitet vid de event som anordnas. De som vill bidra med ekonomiskt stöd eller praktiskt arbete bör höra av sig till mig. svensk hemsida kommer att vara http://www.fredpajorden.se/ Min egen syn är att detta är vår sista chans på denna planet att verkligen leva upp till den kosmiska planen. Det är nu eller aldrig och om du inte tror att den 2a Harmoniska Konvergensen handlar om dig så har du antagligen inte studerat Mayakalendern tillräckligt djupt och allvarligt. Det finns ingen som kan ersätta ditt eget deltagande i transformationen till en värld av enhetsmedvetande när kalendern går mot sitt slut. Den slutliga nedstigningen av de nio vågorna (tidens nio gudar, eller de nio Undervärldarna eller vilket namn man nu vill ha). Det är inte en tillfällighet att talet nio är heligt i många andliga traditioner. Nio är mänsklighetens ödestal och det kommer att vara ditt eget val om du vill vara medskapare i dess öde.

Letter to Oneness Community 100110
100112Reprinted with the permission of Global Oneness Trainers, Buddha and Bhavani:
Beloved Oneness family... Namaste
Bhavani and I just returned from India and wanted to share some of our experiences with you... but first we would like to wish all of you a belated Happy New Year.
This sharing is quite long and although I could not get everything in I tried my best to concise it as much as possible without losing too much information that may somehow help some of you. Bhagwan told us that we all have to help as many oneness family members as possible restore their faith... thus this sharing.
We were invited to the oneness university by Beloved Bhagwan and going there we had no idea why he invited us, all we were told was that he wanted to speak to us privately. He had personally invited us once before in 2007 and we were not told why then either, all we were told was to come for the entire month of September. When we arrived he put us into a Mahadeeksha group which is usually only for Indians, it was a group for the dasa's parents and Bhavani and I were the only westerners and the experience we had that September proved to be a major contribution to our spiritual work.
This last visit was also full of surprises, but this time we were given a lot more indeed. The sixteen days that we were there was a mixture of what I would call 'mystical and magical' and it was by far the most rewarding and the most transformational visit we have ever experienced at the oneness university thus far. We stayed in campus 3 and while we were there a Level 1 process for VIP Indians took place and a Level 2 process for Malaysians.
Bhavani and I were allowed to give a talk and give Deeksha in the Great Hall to these groups as well as to attend a homa with them and received Deeksha from the divine beings with them and also attended their group darshan with Bhagwan. Bhagwan and Amma's nephew was in the Indian group... a very bright and handsome young man of 36 who resides in San Francisco. We really bonded with him and connected him with the three people who organize our groups in northern California, as he was anxious to get to work, and he will be sharing Deeksha with us in our groups in northern California in August. Ajeet Saxena was also in this group, Ajeet is a very powerful business man in Chennai who is a long devote of Babaji and who is bringing several popular Indian gurus that have very large followings to Bhagwan and oneness. This union will greatly help expand the number of the oneness family in India.
At the end of our first week in campus 3 Bhagwan had Anandji (our new dasa for New Zealand) take us to campus 2 and we were once again put into a group with only Indians. This time it was with one hundred tribal Indians and the group was quite different from anything we had ever experienced, although it did 'kind-of' resemble some of the events we were involved in with the Zulu tribal people in Durban and the big event in Tanzania.... somewhat of a similar kind of wild energy anyway. This group has only been used in the oneness university for the last three years, and with only tribal Indians. Bhagwan only trained two dasas, Prasadji and Raghavendraji, to facilitate this group and since then over twelve thousands Indians have been initiated.
This is a two day group with meditation, prayer, chanting and extremely wild dancing... and of course Deeksha. There are three Deekshas given during these two full-on days.... the first is given on the head like the normal Deeksha we all know, the second is given on the chest in the heart area while laying down in the shavasana position and the last one is given as the initiation Deeksha.
The wild dancing seems to be the major part of this group... and I mean DANCING, we danced until we dropped... danced right out of our minds you could say. Bhagwan said that many Tribal people get completely awakened in just a few hours of being in the energy of this group, in fact their transformation takes 3 minutes... and we experienced this happening to several of them. When the second day is finished all the people who attended can be initiated to become Deeksha givers.
After the group ended, Prasadji had a darshan with Bhagwan and Bhagwan questioned him about Bhavani and I, he wanted to know how the two of us adapted and experienced this energy. The following day Prasadji was sent to campus 3 and he spend the afternoon explaining everything to Bhavani and I about this group... every detail.
We had our first private darshan with Bhagwan that night and Bhagwan gave us a teaching on this group and told us he wanted Bhavani and I to facilitate it with certain people in certain third world countries. This darshan lasted two hours and fifteen minutes. The following day Anandji brought us to Golden City and we were taken to Prasadji and Raghavendraji's room where we spent the afternoon being trained deeper to facilitate this group... we were walked through every step of the group and had to take notes on every detail. After everything was covered we were brought to the temple and seated with Prasadji, Raghavendraji and Anandji and the group of tribal Indians was brought in and seated in front of us. Many of them got up and shared their experiences and miracles that happened to them and Prasadji and Raghavendraji translated this for us.
Prasadji told the group that Bhavani and I will be the first westerners to facilitate this group and asked them all to close their eyes and pray for us to be successful in sharing this group with other people in the world. When they began praying, something happened to Bhavani and I that is difficult, or I should say impossible, to put into words. I'm quite certain that because this was taken place in the temple that it somehow elevated the amazing energy that began filling our bodies and it was so powerful and so touching that we could not hold back the tears and we both burst out crying. All of this was videotaped and photographed and we will be receiving copies of it soon and will share it with you somehow.
Bhavani and I went to the temple to meditate every chance we had and several times received Deeksha from the divine beings there... we also gave Deeksha to a multitude of Indians in the temple on several occasions. The temple was officially reopened on Jan. 1st with the golden ball replaced and something called Varamala Deeksha was happening so thousands of Indians were there for this amazing event. The energy in the temple after the golden ball was replaced felt like it expanded tenfold. Just sitting on the third floor now is truly a deep experience.... don't miss this!
We also had a darshan with Bhagwan with a small group of foreigners, key players from Japan, China, Italy, Russia and India... this was a Level 3 teaching and the subject was 'the importance of not naming' which I will write about in the next few days and share as much as I possibly can with all of you. In this darshan Bhagwan told us that from March until the end of 2010 will be what he called 'problematic' times and that we must all apply everything that we have learned to get through this period and also to be able to help as many people as possible get through it. He said that once we reach 2011, things will begin coming together more smoothly and there will be a lot more love and that will move us much easier into 2012. He said that raising our individual level of consciousness is most important so that we can help others... the importance of not naming is something that can help us with our own individual process and like promised above I will share what I can on this with you very soon... as we just arrived home.
Also in our first private darshan with Bhagwan on this visit, we received another gift. When we came up to him he said "Happy Anniversary Buddha" for it was exactly thirty one years to the day that Osho gave me Deeksha and named me Buddha and initiated me to become one of his sannyasins. Bhagwan smiled teasingly and asked me what time of the day it was when Osho initiated me, and I looked at my watch and realized it was exactly the same hour on the same exact night thirty one years before... this completely blew me away.
I remember when Bhavani and I had our very first private darshan with Bhagwan in June 2005 he asked me many questions about Osho and wanted to know all about my experiences with him. I felt then that there was some kind of mystical connection, or reconnection, happening. I also clearly remembered that my very first pull to come to the oneness university was when Deva Premal and Miten wrote to us right after doing their 21 day process and Miten telling us that he felt that this was a continuation of Osho's vision to awaken mankind.
So as some kind of mysterious esoteric birthday gift Bhagwan told us that because of our many years of spiritual experience with other masters and our experience of working in so many countries and with so many different types of people, that we were going to be initiated to become what he called 'global oneness trainers' and he said "you two are now free agents and can work in any country you choose and I will bless and support you completely in doing this." He also told us that he wanted us to be his 'antennas' and to keep him informed to what was happening in other countries. He now wants to be much more fine-tuned with everything happening in the worldwide oneness family. He said that our mission was to initiate large numbers of people worldwide until 2012. He also instructed Anandji to do a special private homa for Bhavani and I... and at the end of that darshan we were given very long hands-on Deeksha by him... which was the most precious gift possible. We had a difficult time walking out of the room and as soon as we got outside we had to sit down. I felt like every cell in my body was being tickled with bliss and this state expanded and expanded until it reached the border of almost becoming painful. Bhavani on the other hand could hardly keep her eyes open.... this Deeksha did something to the both of us that no other has come anywhere close to doing... this one was transformational !
The following day Bhavani and I were taken to campus 4 where Anandji and Hemanthji did a private homa for us... the homa was to make our initiation Deekshas more powerful and to make the people we initiate very powerful Deeksha givers and for our work to be a major contribution to 2012. The next evening in our last private darshan, Bhagwan spoke to us for about forty-five minutes giving us some final instructions, he wants us to do large oneness experience courses in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Bali and the Mauritius Island.... and then he initiated us as global oneness trainers. He told me to move close to him and then said "get comfortable Buddha because this is going to take a while" then he put his hands in the same position that he instructed all the oneness trainers to use when initiating new Deeksha givers. He placed his hands on my head for a very long time... then changed positions and placed his hands flat on my head, like a normal Deeksha position, for a long time and I felt like he was cooking my brain. Then he touched both of my cheeks with his hands very lightly and said in a soft voice "I love you"...he then did the same thing to Bhavani. When he was bidding us good-bye he said "you two will now be unstoppable" and his beautiful face smiled like I have never seen him smile before and then he had a huge belly laugh that seems to be welded in my memory.
Once again we wobbled out of the room and had to immediately sit down outside for some time to come back into the body and become somewhat orientated... and once again his Deeksha was transformational. The next day we met with the dasas who are in charge of the five countries we will be working in first and they will arrange with key players in those countries to organize large oneness experience groups for us to facilitate and then initiate the people attending.
So that is part of our experiences concerning our sacred journey. The other thing I want to share is something more important for you I hope. Before going on this trip, Bhavani and I were very concerned about the loss of all the teachers, as you know all of the dasas that left were the teachers before, but after working closely with the new dasas that are now teachers and spending a lot of time with them I must honestly say that nothing was lost as far as the teaching is concerned.
These new teachers have a freshness and a purity about them that somehow seems to go even deeper. The chanting at both homas was just brilliant and the way they preformed and explained each step of the homa was very unique and had a clarity and very powerful effect. The level of their devotion can be felt so strongly... and we made a point to ask all the people in both Level 1 and Level 2 separately how did they rate the teachers and every single person was blown away by what they experienced.
So dear ones if any of you have the same feeling about losing the teachers please relax about that one, the courses are extremely powerful and the energy at the oneness university is indeed more powerful than ever. We will all be experiencing a new beginning in a way, a new phase of this work we are all involved in... and we have to apply ourselves more than ever now. Just being a spectator with the title 'Deeksha giver' does not help at all to make Bhagwan and Amma's vision become a reality... we all have a major part to play, we are all important players in this push for 2012.
Those of you who have completed the Level 2 and want to become trainers, please contact your coordinator and apply as soon as possible... once you become trainers you can begin doing the oneness experience course and initiate more people. Those of you who have not completed the Level 2 and want to help in this push please go and do it and then apply to become a trainer. Each time someone has the right intention to contribute and then applies the right effort, Grace takes over and makes everything happen. If everyone in every country does this it will make an amazingly giant difference in this world we live in. As I have said before.... we are all standing on the edge of a beautiful dream, and if we hold hands and forget about fame or blame and focus on our intention, it will happen just exactly as Bhagwan and Amma envisioned it to be.
May this find all of you in peace and enjoying your precious gift of being.
With love
Buddha & Bhavani
Blue Moon Lunar Eclipse
091231On December 12, 2009, 12:12, our Mother God and the Feminine Aspects of Deity throughout the Universe expanded the portal of Transfiguring Divine Love. Through this expanded portal, the Earth and all her Life are being bathed with higher transformational energies than we have ever experienced. These frequencies of Divine Love will build in momentum daily and hourly until December 12, 2010. During this 12-month cycle, Humanity will have an unparalleled opportunity to release any of the behavior patterns that are preventing us from tangibly manifesting the patterns of perfection for the New Earth. This is a merciful gift of Divine Grace. It is a time for us to focus on our Divine Intentions.
On December 16, 2009, the portal of Transfiguring Divine Love was intensified through a very powerful New Moon. This enhanced the influx of Light that bathed the Earth during the Solstice, December 21, 2009. On December 31, 2009, we will experience a BLUE MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE. The Beings of Light have revealed that this is going to be the most significant New Year we have experienced since our fall from Grace millions of years ago. This is a vitally important time for all of us to empower what we want to cocreate in our individual lives and on this planet. Not only will our hopes, dreams, visions, and Divine Intentions be expanded a thousand times a thousandfold by the Company of Heaven, they will be exponentially expanded by the tremendous influx of Light we will experience on that sacred day.
These gifts of Divine Intervention will expand in power and might until January 14, 2010. On that day, we will experience an incredibly powerful New Moon Solar Eclipse. During the Solar Eclipse, the patterns of perfection we have empowered will be permanently sealed in the highest frequencies of vibration possible. From that moment forth, they will build in momentum daily and hourly. When our visions reach a critical mass, an unstoppable shift will occur that will bring our cocreations into manifestation.

Q1: We have learned that relationship with the parents are very important. My experience tells me that that is the deeper meaning, but very rarely, you mention another kind of relationship that is very important to me: it is the relationship with our children. This relationship can be a source of suffering, sadness, and internal conflict. Can we know more about relationships with our children, especially when they are teenagers, ( ? ) to grow, and have a happier life together in family.
Bhagavan: When we talk about setting right relationships with one's parents, what we really mean to communicate is, if you set right your relationship with your parents, all relationships are automatically set right. Every other relationship is based on this relationship. Not necessarily your biological mother or father, whoever brought you up when you were very young, they are the ones who are guiding you throughout life. That relationship only colors all other relationship. So if you are to have a very good relationship with your mom and dad, whether they are your biological parents, or whoever brought you up, it's automatically set right with everybody else including your children. However, I would like to give you some tips regarding to taking care of children.
Now as far as a child is concerned, everybody must know some basic psychology as to the developments in a child's life - how does a child think, feel and behave who is five years old, ten years old, fifteen, twenty - this knowledge everybody must have, because then a lot of mysteries grow out of that. The child is rebelling, not listening to you, not obeying you, not speaking to you; all of these are biologically controlled.
And if you understand that, half the problem is gone. The other thing is, while dealing with your child, you have to become a child. You have to put yourself in your child's shoes. Think of your days when you were five years old, when you were ten years old, fifteen years old; you would be able to know how to deal with your child.
The other thing is, do not treat a child like a child, and put him down. Treat him as your equal. A child should not be thought of as somebody very small and insignificant. No. You have to treat him as your equal - That is very important. And the other thing is, there is a general rule in India, which has been formed in what we call the (?) stories, which has been the guiding principle in this country for a very long time, and it has helped millions of people across a few thousand years. That is until a child is young, treat him like a king. Until age six, treat him like a king, six to twelve, treat him like a prince, and beyond twelve, treat him as a friend. These are three guidelines, and we strictly follow this, and we have achieved very, very good results.
And more than all that, you must be a good parent, which means: there must not be conflict inside you. There must not be fear inside you. There must not be anxiety inside you. You must be whole. You must not be splintered inside. You must be whole, you must see yourself as you are, you must love yourself as you are, you must accept yourself as you are. This you can do to yourself, then whatever you do will be perfect with the child, and the child will dutifully respond. But if you are not all right inside, try as you might, you are only going through the motions. You are pretending, you're acting - that is not going to get any results. The child will become what is inside you. You cannot fool a child. You have to transform yourself, and then see you could do wonders with the child.
That is the answer to the first question, now I go on to the second question.
Q2: What do you say to the deeksha givers that have passion for the mission of 2012, and want to share blessings, but still feel blocked about it?
Bhagavan: Yes, what I want to make clear, in this Skype programs, I want to help you overcome those blocks. Through meditation, through prayer, through blessings, and through teachings, I am going to systematically clear those blocks, give you more confidence in yourself, and confidence in the blessing. One of the things I would suggest is, to become a powerful blessing giver, you must know certain kinds of fasting, and I would recommend at least a two day fast in a month, which would make you into a powerful blessing giver, and some exercises like pranayama ( or some exercises which) would help you become a powerful blessing giver.
But more important than that, you must learn to talk to the Divine. As you are giving a blessing, you must feel for the person, know his problem, and then talk to the Divine about that. As you keep talking, you will find that the blessing becomes very, very powerful. And in fact sometimes you will even know what the problem is, without the other person talking to you. So this talking to the Divine is the most important thing. I will help you with that, and I am sure in six months time you could become powerful blessing givers, because by 2011 you must have real power in your hands. I'm helping you with it, don't worry.
Q3: You have mentioned a lot of times, it is very important (???)
The question is, could we share the teachings... (unintelligible)
Bhagavan: You are perfectly ready to share whatever you have got. There are no controls, there are no restrictions, everything has been removed. You are totally free. You can share with anybody you like, do whatever you want to do. You've got complete freedom. The only thing we want from you is, help people. That's all. 2012 is coming. We have to speed up now. Please help people. Whatever knowledge you have got, whatever processes you know, please start helping people! No restrictions.
Q4: We have a group of nearly 40 deeksha givers, and have decided to do the trainers course, to go to India. Our question is, is it possible for them to practice internal integrity also as a group?
Bhagavan: Yes, first of all, you are most welcome to come to India and we'll train you to become excellent trainers. We'll go all out and we'll train you. We are waiting to receive you in India. That's the answer to the first part. And regarding practice of inner intent as a group, that is the best way to do it! As I told earlier, this is not going to be achieved through individual effort. It's only collectivity that is going to make it. So it will be ideal to have at least groups of 25, a 45 group is very, very good. More is good. So as groups, if you would work on inner integrity - in other words, you'd work on yourself, and you share it. The other works on himself and he shares it. Collectively you would move much, much fast - much, much faster. So, that's the best thing to do. So please go ahead and do it as a group.
[Following this there was a three-minute meditation.]

Q1: The first question Bhagavan, regarding the relationship with my parents. Why is it that sometimes I feel that I have healed a lot there and afterwards situations happen where I realize there is still a lot more to heal, as if I were going backwards instead of forward. What can I do, Bhagavan?
Bhagavan: Life is relationship. It's something which is very alive. We are not dealing with some dead past here. So what we must understand is, when we talk of relationship with your parents, it does not mean that you've done some work on that and that it has been healed. It's not like that. The teachings must be correctly understood.
So what it means is that you have become alive to that problem. The problems are there, but people are not aware of them, people are not alive to them. By this awareness we don't mean simple knowledge. It's like holding a snake in your hands. It's very intense. So that kind of holding, that kind of awareness, we're talking about. When you hold something like that, it heals. It does not mean it's gone forever. It could very well come back, if you lose your level of awareness.
So the more you're in your level of awareness, healing is in place. It's alright. But the moment you slip from awareness, it comes back. It's not that there's been a disease and you've been healed and you're free. It's not like that. It's a living thing. Relationship is a living thing. Life is a living thing. And life is relationship. No relationship, no life. So it is there working all the time. It's coming up, it's dissappearing, it will come back after some time. So it will be bobbing up and down. Like so many personalities are there inside you, each personality takes turns and then comes and stays and then goes away and something else comes.
So if you give away the concept of saying "I am healed".. No, it's not like that. You have to be intensely aware. Even if you are awakened, if at some point of time you lose your awareness, it will come back. The only thing is an awakened person would quickly get back. The awakening will come back, the awareness will come back, and he'll get back to his beautiful state. You could always slip and fall.
Similarly here, you should not assume that all is healed. No. Maybe the charge is reduced a bit, that's all. It would come bouncing back if you're not aware. So you must learn to spend more of your time in greater and greater awareness. Maybe initially it could be for a few minutes, then for a few hours, then for a few days at a stretch. It goes on like that. And then it's almost permanent. It's almost permanent. It's almost permanent, whatever be the problem is not going to trouble you at all. Problems would be there, but they do not trouble you when there's awareness. When there's no awareness, they trouble you.
So you can never say "Yes, I am now healed". Maybe temporarily you feel like that. The charge is gone or something like that. But then again it can come back if there's no awareness.
So that's the answer for the first question. We move on to the second question.
Q2: Bhagavan, it is very difficult for me to let go of my emotions, problems etc. I feel there are things that stay back and accumulate inside. Although, since I took my first course in India, I have become more conscious about my feelings and I allow myself to feel more. I can not experience things completely and then I go into frustration. What can I do, Bhagavan?
Bhagavan: So, we have never told you to let go of your emotions, problems or stop accumulating. Never at all. That is not the teaching. All that we are telling is, please realize, it is the one mind, it is the ancient mind, that is how it was for millions of years and that is how it would be, unless and until the human brain changes. It has always been so.
The other thing is, it's not your mind or my mind or his mind. It's the one human mind. So what we expect you to realize or understand is, that it can not change. That it's impossible to change whatever is there. The impossibility of change must strike you like a ton of bricks. That's what we're talking about. We're not asking you to change things at all. We've been telling you that's what man has been doing for millennia, trying to change. It's like straightening a dog's tail. That cannot be done.
Now if somebody's going on trying to straighten a dog's tail, then he realizes it can not be changed, then he gives up the whole effort. When he gives it up, what is there is peace, there is silence, there is tranquility. That's the absence of conflict.
Similarly, the problem with you is, you hear some teaching, you hear something about an awakened man, you want to become like that and you want to be free of this or you want to have something, you want to change this, and you're lost. That is not what the teaching is saying. The teaching is saying "just be aware of them", that's all. It does not matter what you see or what is going on.
The only thing that we want you to realize is, it can not be changed. You cannot give up those things. And strangely - we do not want to emphasize this because then it again becomes a concept - if you stop trying to change, what is there is peace. What is there is the absence of conflict. What is there is joy. But if you try to say "I'll be free of conflict, I'll have peace, I'll have joy" - you will never have it until doomsday.
It's all a question of giving up. Not deliberately, not through effort. That's why we are saying "effortless effort". If you try giving up and then give up, it is false. It's just tricking you. The mind is tricking you. It must drop like a dry leaf. A dry leaf automatically falls down.
Similarly, all that we want you to see is that it's impossible to change. It's your effort to change which is the problem. A problem does not exist by itself. It is your problem that you want to change that. You want it to be different. You're saying "that is right, this is wrong, it should be this, it should be that". That effort IS the problem. Saying it is wrong, that is the problem. Saying it is right, that is the problem. Saying "I will change it", that is the problem. When you say "I must change jealousy" - that only is jealousy. If there's no such effort, there's no jealousy also. Because there's no "somebody" who's having jealousy. You are equal to jealousy. What is there is jealousy only. But it appears as though you are suffering from jealousy. And then you're trying to be free of it. How can you be free of it? Because you are only jealousy. Not that you are suffering from jealousy. If that were the case, we could do something about it. But that's not the truth. Therefore, it is just there. Why bother about it?
It is just there like the mountains are there, the clouds are there. You can't do anything with the mountains, nor with the clouds. Just watch them. Just watch them, that is all there is to life. Just mere watching. That is what we call awareness. That is what we call awakening. It's not something to achieve. No. Just realizing there's nothing to do.
We'll go into it deeper in later times. Now we move on to the third question.
Q3: The third question, Bhagavan, you tell us that inner integrity is fundamental for spiritual awakening, but when we practise it, we see that we are the same selfish person as ever. Then, how will this practise help us contribute to global awakening? If despite our processes and teachings, we find more and more ugliness. Reality shows us that what we love today is what we betray tomorrow. Then how do we stop this ugliness from affecting our conviction to move forward? How do we make our heart flower instead of withering away?
Bhagavan: It's the same answer as the last question. Please read the last two sentences about ugliness.
Dasaji repeats the following: Reality shows us that what we love today is what we betray tomorrow. Then how do we stop this ugliness from affecting our conviction to move forward? How do we make our heart flower instead of withering away?
Bhagavan: You see, that exactly is the problem. You've already condemned it as ugliness and you're saying it must change. How do you go from here? These are all the wrong questions.
All that we are saying is, it's neither ugliness nor is it beautiful. That is the problem. The mind which is divisive in nature, because mind is nothing but the flow of thought and what is thought? Thought is measurement. What do you do with measurement? You divide. It is dividing it as the ugly and the beautiful. It is saying, "This should not be there. That must happen.", that's where you're caught up. It's exactly what the teaching is telling. Please understand "the content is never important"! Whatever be the content, that is of no consequence. It is not your content or his content. It is the content of the collective consciousness. It is just there.
All that we are telling you is, please don't try to tamper with it. What is inner integrity? Inner integrity is just seeing what is there. Not trying to condemn it as good and bad, right or wrong or giving explanations saying "How should it be in 2012? What should I change? I'm still self-centered. I'm still ugly. I'm still struggling". Who asked you to struggle? Who asked you to change? Not at all.
All that we are telling you is, please see what's going on. It's very alive inside you. From moment to moment, it is changing. It is as alive as the ocean. The waves are coming and going, up and down, new waves, old waves go away. Similarly, thoughts are coming, going away, emotions are coming, they're going away, personalities are emerging, going away. The whole drama of life is taking place inside you. You're nothing but the Universe.
We're just saying, please don't condemn it. Don't try to change it. There is selfishness, yes. It is not your selfishness, it's not his selfishness. It is selfishness. Suffering is not your suffering or his suffering. Suffering is suffering. Whether you have it or he has it. We are all One. It is just there with us for millions of years and it will be so until the brain changes. So, you are selfish, yes, that's the truth. You are rubbish pits and septic tanks. It's not that you are a rubbish pit or somebody's a septic, it's what we have in the collective consciousness. It is there. We have gathered this over millions of years. There's nothing we can do about it.
I'm not asking you to become saints. Not at all! I want you to become sages. Who's a sage? Who doesn't think of right and wrong. He just responds to life, that's all. He could be violent one moment, he could be peaceful another moment. He could help you one moment, he may not help you another moment. He's just responding to situations as they arise. This is perfect action. You can not call it good action or bad action or right or wrong. He just responds. And he does not go back and think "whether I did the right thing or wrong thing?". He keeps responding. He's just seeing what's going on. The content is not important for him.
So, please, just look at your ugliness and then soon you'll stop calling it ugly. It could look very beautiful also. What looks beautiful could also look ugly. Therefore, you must take a neutral stand. Not that you take a neutral stand, it must become neutral. Not that you behave like an enlightened person. No. You have to be enlightened. Not that you behave like an awakened person and you put an effort. If you do that, you will never get there. The problem with you is, you attend a Level 1, a Level 2, this and that, and then all of that becomes concepts. And then you want to get "there", you want to achieve that and then you're doomed.
There's nothing to achieve. Nowhere to go. Everything is perfect. See things are perfect. And what would help you? Inner integrity. As you go deeper and deeper, it becomes easier and easier. And it becomes very enjoyable because conflict ceases. Because inner integrity means just seeing what is there. You don't lie to yourself. It's OK to lie to somebody. But the problem is you're often lying to yourself. Non-stop lying is going on to yourself. Because you do not want to see what is there because you think it's ugly. Who said it's ugly? Some teacher? Some scripture? Well, you have nothing to do with it. It's just there. That's all. That is the truth. How can you play with truth? You can not tamper with truth. The truth is that. Yes, you are selfish. But why do you call it selfish, why do you name it selfish, why do you say it's bad? It's just there and you're not in control.
So, if you go deeper, it all becomes natural, it all becomes automatic. There's no need to change. What happens then? Please do it and see. If I tell you something, you will again make it into a concept. Just do it. It's not difficult. Start with your breath and go inside and just see what's going on. Don't bring in any scripture or any teaching. Not even my teaching. Just see what is going on, that's all. You are the teacher. And the teaching is yourself. It's there right inside you, the teaching. That is the real teaching. What's going on. Nothing more.
So, if I give you a teaching and you make it a concept, you're not going to go anywhere. I'm just giving you some help, that's all. Teachings must come from inside, from your observation, from what you see. Then you must speak it out. Then you'll see it has got power.
So, more clarifications I think you can get from Cristobal. He can help you out with it, because he has had long sessions with me, so he'll be able to explain it clearly.
So shall we now move into meditation?
*The audio from Mexico can not be heard in this video*

Q1: There is so much pain and sorrow surfacing in me right now, that my daily life is becoming very difficult to manage. And at the same time it takes so much more effort now to dissolve the pain by experiencing it, compared to a year ago after my Level 1 course. How can I make the act of dissolving the pain by experiencing it easier, more effective and more powerful?
Bhagavan: In Oneness, you've got to remember, that only up to a point there could be effort. If effort continues, then nothing would happen. Things must happen automatically, they must become effortless. Experiencing suffering is an effortless act. If you apply effort, you will not be able to do it at all. Effort is only slightly becoming aware, "yes I have this pain" and maybe bringing in some teaching. That's why I often give an example of a snake in the room and you are very scared. And then you go out and get a torchlight, going out and getting a torch is the effort, and then putting on the switch is the effort. Once the light comes out of the torch, you see it's only a rope and not a snake. So it does not take time, energy or effort. The fear is just gone.
So in all of oneness activities, only up to a point there is effort. Beyond that it must become effortless. Now, how does it become effortless? That is where Grace comes in, your connection with the Divine, without which you can not do it. So up to a point it's OK. You try and you put in some effort. And then there comes a point when you realize, nothing is happening. You're trying to experience suffering, nothing is happening. You're trying to stay with it, nothing is happening. That is the point when we say, you've got to surrender. Surrender is not something very cheap or something slavish. You just realize you cannot do anything. When you can not do anything, what do you do? You've got to seek help. So you must have a connection with the Divine. So take a blessing or invoke the Divine, and then you'll see what happens. It just begins to happen. It has to be effortless. If there's effort, it is not oneness. And it naturally happens if you invoke the Divine or if you can not do it, ask some powerful blessing giver to give you a blessing. It will start off. That's why the blessing is so important. Without the blessing you can not get there. Because your trying is what is destroying it.
When you try to experience, you can not experience. It's just not possible. So, you try and you fail, that's when you hand over. Then you'll see it happens very beautifully. And once it starts happening it gives you such joy and powered by joy it goes on automatically. It becomes a habit after some time. But at least initially, you'll need the help of the Divine or the blessing.
So that's the answer for the first question. We move on to the second question.
Q2: I have been trying to set right my relationship with my father for several
years now, yet I still think he is an idiot. One part of me does not seem to
like him or want to have anything do with him, at the same time another part
of me feels guilty about this and bad for giving him more pain than he is
already carrying and this part feels compassion for him, which I'm not able
to express in his Presence. Please help.
Bhagavan: Now as I'm talking to you, taking on your questions or telling you certain things, or we're going to meditate together or I'm going to give a blessing; all this is Level 3. Now in Level 3, I would be giving you more clarity on teachings which have been taught to you already. Because very often after a level 1 and a level 2, you go home with a lot of wrong concepts and that has to be corrected. So I'll be trying to give you a clear understanding of the teachings, that is level 3, and also give you new teachings as we go along, once the foundation has been layed.
Now let us look at this question. Please repeat the question again.
OK. So, now if you look into this question you can get a clear understanding that whoever asked this question has really not understood oneness. Now for example, he calls his father an idiot and he wants that to be changed. That is not oneness. And then he's struggling to be compassionate to his father. That is not oneness. What exactly is the oneness teaching? Now, he thinks his father is an idiot. Oneness does not say change your opinion about your father or do something about it, none of these things. Oneness does not say "change", because oneness says "change is impossible". The fundamental teaching is "when the impossibility of change strikes you, like a ton of bricks, then something happens". What you must realize is, "Look, I'm not able to change my opinion about my father. This is what I think of my father, that he's an idiot". So all that you could do is, become intensely aware of what's going on inside, namely, you think your father is an idiot. That's all there is to oneness.
Like a snake which is focused on the prey, this is not indifference, but be fully focused on what is happening inside. You're thinking he's an idiot, that's all there is to it. Out of that intensity, that awareness, there arises action, about which we won't talk. There's no need to talk about that, because that again becomes a concept. You just act. You can not call it right action, you can not call it wrong action, you can not call it good action, you can not call it bad action. It is just action. If just being action, it is perfect, no matter what the consequences are. It's just action.
You don't go back and say "I should've behaved like this, I should've behaved like that", no. Now what's happening is there's a reaction. A lot of psychology has got in, a lot of philosophy has got in, oneness teachings which has been understood differently has got in and now you're trying to act from that, which is no action at all. You must act from the intensity of awareness. In your case it is, you think your father is an idiot. That's the only truth. How could you change the truth? We're not asking you to change the truth at all. That is the truth for you at that moment. You think he's an idiot. That's all. Be intensely aware of it. Not being indifferent, but be very, very clear. Just be focused on it and see what happens.
The same thing, you're trying to be compassionate to him, there's a conflict inside. So all that you must become aware of is that conflict. You're trying to be compassionate. You're not really compassionate, you're trying to be compassionate. You feel a little sorry for your father and there's a conflict. Become aware of all these things, that little compassion, feeling sorry for your father and having a conflict. That is the content of the mind at that moment of time. The mind is like a river. It's flowing all the time, it is changing every moment. Different personalities are emerging, they're arising and they're ceasing. There's emotions that arise and they cease. It's like a vast ocean where the waves are coming up and going down. Simply happening all the time.
You can't control it, you can not contain it. Something which is living, which is dynamic, how can it be controlled or contained? You can only be aware of it, you can be alive to it. If you're aware and alive, then things happen naturally. You don't need a moral code, you don't need an ethical code, you don't need some scripture to guide you. Nothing is required. You don't need a book on philosophy or psychology, nothing. Simply action arises. That is the book you've got to read. The most important book is the book of your own life. What is going on there. That's the most interesting story you could ever hope to hear. It will be just fascinating and as you read that book there is joy, there is bliss. Everything starts coming to you.
So the content of your mind, the most terrible things - even to use the word terrible is wrong. If you say it's terrible, it's bad, it's good, then there's no more awareness. You're judging it already. And when you start judging, the mind is at full play, because the mind is nothing but the flow of thought. Thought, being measurement, is all the time comparing and then there's no awareness at all. When only comparison stops, when measurement stops, there is awareness. And awareness is the first step and the last step.
There's nowhere to go. Awareness is not going to take you anywhere. Please understand that. Awareness is the be all and the end all. Just to be aware is to be awakened. You should not think you will become aware and then you're going to reach somewhere. That is not oneness. You should not think "Oh, I now got a tool called awareness, I will use it and I'll become this, I'll become that". There's nothing to become. All that is possible is sheer awareness. If you are aware you are in heaven, that's all. We need not describe it.
It's the first step, it's the last step. There's nowhere to go. You should not think "Oh, it's the first step, therefore I'm going to land up somewhere". No. First step is the last step. Finished, it's over! There's nothing else to life than just being aware. It can be awareness about the tree there, or about the bird there, or about your wife nagging, or seeing what's inside. There's no difference at all. If you could be aware of your wife nagging you, or your husband nagging you, whatever the case might be, it's the same thing as listening to a bird or the flowing water.
There's no difference at all. It's sheer joy. It's all over. Whereas you're trying to get somewhere. The teachings are being applied, you're trying to make use of it, you're trying to get somewhere. There's nowhere to go! How long is this going to go on? Trying to get somewhere? The content is never, ever important. It can be anything. Are you just aware of it? That's all that matters. And there you would need the blessing. You certainly need Divine help, at least in the initial stages, to become aware. Thereafter it becomes quite easy and then the Presence starts moving in. And once the Presence is there, there's only awareness, that's all.
The Presence is awareness. As you get closer and closer to the actual event which is happening inside you and awareness increases, the Presence also would increase, that is the Divine. And there comes a point when the Presence is fully there. Awareness is full. The Presence is full. And with that, it's all over. At that point you can say, "I am God", because you become the Presence. So, awareness means, something is happening there and you're getting closer and closer and closer. At the first level, it is contemplation. At a deeper level, it is meditation. At the final stages, it becomes greater and greater awareness. When awareness is total, the Presence is total, you are One with God.
So, we'll go into greater depths in future Skypes. So now we move on to the third question.
Q3: When can all we blessing givers come to India to meditate in the temple and deepen our process and what can we do to help you in your intention?
Yes, you could start coming from February, because in the month of January, we'll be having huge crowds here. But if we still find that we're in a position to invite you, we'll send you an invitation and you could start coming in January. But as of now, it looks like February. You're all free to come and meditate in the temple. Because the temple here or the World Oneness Center is intended to alter our planetary energies. One is, the building itself would do that, plus when people meditate there we'll be helping the process a lot. So, you're most welcome to come here. That's one thing.
What I would want from you is, quickly we must produce a lot more trainers. A LOT more trainers must be produced, who in turn would produce a lot more blessing givers, because only then we can make 2012 possible. We need large numbers of people because unfortunately we have lost some very valuable time, and recent events in the movement has shaken the faith of people. It's very, very difficult to build up faith. The faith has been shaken because of the events. So, we have to make up for lost time. It's a very unfortunate thing.
So, for example, I consider 2012 itself to be a phenomenon, not only our movement is the phenomenon, but the entire 2012 itself is a phenomenon. There are a lot of movements working for that and unfortunately some of the movements have perished. Because of very similar events, they have died a premature death and some have become weak.
Now this has happened to our movement. Wherever there's a front, there's a back, wherever there's a high, there's a low. So whenever you try to create order, disorder also automatically emerges. It's nobody's fault. It very naturally happens. But somehow we have to tie out the crisis. Unfortunately it has come this way and it is in fact shaking the faith of people. So we are losing valuable time. So, our only way to counter that is, in the next two years we'll produce a lot more trainers and a lot more blessing givers. That's the way to counter that.
So I hope all of us could work together. It's not just me working or someone's working, all of us have to work together. It has to be a massive human effort if 2012 to be possible and I hope we can all cooperate and work together very, very fast. I would request you to become trainers as quickly as possible and start producing as many blessing givers as you could possibly, so we'll be ready by the end of 2011. By the end of 2011 itself we'll be able to see things start happening, that will give us the confidence. And in 2012 we should be ready. Because we should start right from January itself, and in the month of December we'll be fully active all 31 days.
I can tell you one thing, that 2012 is not a figment of some imagination or some hallucination. We do work with special groups in India, when you come to India you can see 2012 is happening. People are becoming awakened in something like 6 hours. And the actual turning point is less than 3 minutes. The great buddhist teacher Padmasambhava who brought Buddhism from India to Tibet, he said "when the iron birds fly in the air, man will be awakened in less than 3 minutes". We see it actually happening. When you come here, when you go to India, we'll actually show you. You can see for yourself how this is happening. So 2012 has begun. Only thing is we should build up the requisite numbers by 2012. And I'm sure that we're all going to cooperate and make it happen.
So the three questions I think have been answered, so now shall we go into meditation for three minutes?
Sweden: Yes Bhagavan.
Bhagavan: Yes, so thank you so much. Next time we'll be going for deeper and longer meditations as we prepare ourselves. So we now move on to meditation now.
*Meditation*
Shanti, shanti, shanti..
Bhagavan: Love you all! Love you!
Sweden: We love you so much Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: Namaste, namaste! Thank you so much, thank you!
Sweden: Namaste! Thank you so much Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: Thank you, thank you!
Sweden: Love you so much Bhagavan!

December 20, 2009
Doug Bentley was facilitating the call.
Namaste Bhagavan
Namaste.
Starting with this month, there is almost 600 new Blessing Givers throughout North America and Canada. The Oneness Trainers have been doing a phenomenal amount of work creating new blessing givers, Bhagavan. At the request of the trainers, we'd like to read the list of new blessing givers by state.
Arizona 57, Canada 36, California 94, Colorado 3, Washington DC 26, Florida 57, Idaho 47, Massachusetts 20, Montana 3, North Caroliina 34, Ohio 20, Nevada 1, Oregon 6, Texas 32, Vermont 7, Washington 21.
Please give blessings to new blessing givers. A lot of them will be on the line tonight.
Bhagavan: I'll give them all a strong blessing.
Q1: Could you please offer more clarity about the shift that will occur in 2012 and how our work with the Oneness Blessing is helping make that shift. What will take place? What will our experiences be? And How will the rapid changes in our movement help facilitate that.
2012. There is first going to be an energy shift. We call this Pranic energy. In fact the temple has been built here called the World Oneness Center to affect these planetary energies. In fact in ancient times the pyramids were built across the world to affect these planetary energies. Objects like Stonehenge and other ancient objects were built specifically meant for the altering of planetary energies. Similarly, the World Oneness Center or what we sometimes call the Oneness Temple has been created to affect these planetary energies. The first shift will be in planetary energies.
Following that will be a rising in the levels of consciousness. Peoples' consciousness will reach to higher levels. This will mean actually what we call the kundalini rising up in the human body. That will be higher levels of consciousness. That will result in a change of perception. These changes essentially will surround the fact that you'll start losing the sense of separation. For some people it could be merely feeling connected. For other people, it could be you'll actually feel you are the other. There will be varying degrees of change with regard to the sense of separation.
For some it could be mild. What I call mild is to feel connected. For some it could be that great that you would feel that you are no different from the other. It could go to that extent. It could be so deep that when someone is physically affected--A physical thing could affect you physically. It can go to that extent.
Besides this, there will also be people experiencing higher states of consciousness, like some could experience Christ consciousness, Buddha consciousness or Krishna consciousness or any kind of consciousness they've been seeking or they have been conditioned from early childhood. That would be a change of consciousness.
There are also others who will discover oneness with the physical earth also. They will feel very, very close to the earth There will be a variety of changes That's why we're not telling sameness. We're saying oneness. People will be having very different experiences. 6 billion or 7 billion on the planet, it could be That many experiences and that many states of consciousness.
What is going to be strange is that despite the differences in experience and the state, all will feel one. You would expect people to differ, quarrel, disagree or to fight. That will not happen. A Christian with his experience and a Muslim with their experience will strangely become very, very close. We'll be moving in that direction. I will say that the experience of each one will be unique. Any two people will not have the same experience. Nature or what you call God does not duplicate. Each one is special and each one is unique. That is what is going to happen.
The common denominator is going to be that we going to work as if we're one being. That is what is likely to happen and that is what will have its own consequences in the external world. When I'm talking about the Oneness age, I'm talking about what is going to happen in the inner world. When I talk of the Golden Age, I'm talking about what will happen in the external world.
The Inner changes will happen first and that will lead to certain external changes. People will be sharing whatever they got with each other, they will be more careful about the environment. they will be more kind and protective with the animals. All this will be happening in the external world as a consequence of the changes in the inner world. So, we can expect these things to happen probably sometime towards the end of 2011. We'll probably get a few samples in early October and November, December of 2011. It will go full speed from January, 2012 and by December 2012 we will be able to see a lot for ourselves. This in short will be the changes that will be happening.
Along with that we will also expect environmental changes as human consciousness changes. We might be able to sort out some of the environmental issues too. On the one hand, we have to move on the physical front and with the inner change also will bring about environmental changes.
Besides that, our thought structures also will start melting down. The thought structures which have been built up for thousands of years. The will sort of be breaking down. In other words, you will not be troubled so much by thought, negative thoughts and emotions. They too will start slowly decreasing. One should not think it's all over in 2012. It keeps growing and there's no end to that growth. So we can be evolving more and more and more. That is not so important for us. What's important is that we bring about these changes in 20112. We cannot take it for granted.
We have got to work for it. The energies are there, but we have to make use of the energies to bring about the shift. If we just sit idle thinking "Okay there may be some change there is no problem, there is nothing more for me to do." Nothing is going to happen. We have got to make use of that. This is where the blessing givers come in. What we need urgently is lots more trainers, a huge number more of trainers and we have to produce huge numbers of blessing givers.
The blessing givers' main role is by helping others is to raise their levels of consciousness. Because blessing givers have to give blessings to each other in the year 2012. You have to form groups, I suggest a minimum group of 25 people. Ideal to have 50 or even 100 and in some cases you may have as many as 300 if they can be cooperative. Now, what we have to do in the year 2012, is you have to form some kind of mandala formation and we'll teach you how to give blessings to each other. Here's the situation where a blessing giver gives a blessing to another blessing giver. It is going on between them.
These groups will begin to move to another level. When you do that, something very strange is going to happen. It is not something we are speculating or we are going to try out. We've tried all these things and it works very beautifully. Everything is ready. Not only that, in 2012 is not something in your imagination or something we are ?? about. We have some special groups in India. Probably when you come to India, we can take you and show you what's happening. Actually, people are moving into 2012. It's happening right now. We find that It happens between 6 hours or 3 days. It's that fast. We hope that you could watch it, and learn something and it's possible you could use at home. Here, we actually notice that the moment of transition is less than 3 minutes. What the ancient teacher called ?? India into Ancient Tibet. He had made the remark, that when the iron birds fly in the air. man would make it in less than 3 minutes. The iron birds have been flying now for quite some time. We think possibly the time has come. Because we are actually seeing this happen. That is what we have all this the confidence.
The question is doing for a small group is one thing, and doing for entire planet is something totally different. This requires LARGE numbers of blessing givers, especially now since we have lost very valuable time. While Oneness is a phenomenon, we also believe that 2012 is itself a phenomenon and a lot of people are working for 2012. It's not just our phenomenon, there are other phenomenon going on also. The sad thing is that many of them have died already. They died a year after inception - some after 2 years, 3 years, some after10 years.
As these things happened, also, the opposite was produced. Like, you have the front, you have the back, you have the top, you have the bottom. So whenever we move in one direction, like matter and anti-matter, the moment you try to bring about order, disorder too is simultaneously created. If the disorder is not much, then of course we can have a higher order. If the disorder crosses a point, then it could become very dangerous and the whole thing could be revert back to disorder.
Now, we have a situation here, most of you know the recent crisis in the Movement. There is a certain amount of disorder and if the disorder continues to grow, basically its function will be to destroy faith. Faith in 2012, faith in the divine, and faith in the blessing. If that happens, we could still lose out. The possibility is there. I have seen many such movements do so in the last twenty years or so. That's why the only way is that order should grow faster than disorder which means more trainers and more blessing givers.
In fact, I've been wanting this to happen for all these years. But it could not happen. But now I see it is beginning to happen. But, this could be our last chance. So, I'm so happy to hear these figures about how the blessing givers have grown in numbers the last few weeks. If we continue in this way, I think we'll have enough Oneness ??. America is a big country and we need a huge number of trainers and vast numbers of blessing givers. If we keep up this pace, I think we should be ready by 2012.
The crucial role is going to be played by the blessing givers and of course the trainers have got to produce them. And that blessing is nothing but the divine working through you. Unless there is divine intervention, we cannot get there. It's next to impossible. Because it involves lots of transformation that only the Divine could bring about. Unless you open up to the divine for 2010 and 2011. We'll be speaking more to you and we'll be guiding you more in order to open up more connections at a deeper contact with the divine. If the divine comes through the blessing is going to bring about the changes in all the blessing givers which in turn will bring about the change in human consciousness. It's actually the work of the divine. We're just helping out. You're probably some kind of a catalyst. The divine has to make use of these energies to bring about this change. We just have to help out. So that is in brief the answer to the first question.
Q2: Not a question but many of the blessing givers would like to ask you to to give them what you feel is best in a teaching for this month to deepen their state and help them grow in whatever way.
I spoke with Mexico yesterday and Sweden and Italy today. What I notice was there seems to be a misunderstanding about the teachings. They have gone through Level 1 and Level 2. From the way they're asking the questions, I could clearly see they've misunderstood the teachings. Now the oneness teaching is actually a very, very simple teaching.
What you need to understand is that If it sounds complex, there is some misunderstanding about the teaching. And then if you understand that you have to put in some effort, then again, you have misunderstood the teaching. By saying no effort, we do not mean indifference at all. This should not be mistaken for indifference.
Let us see what is it we are saying. Basically we could put the entire oneness teaching into one word, That is AWARENESS. So, very often we are getting questions like saying, "Look I know I have ugliness, I have jealousy, I have no love, I have anger, I have violence and I am trying to experience suffering and now it's not happening and when is it I'm going to change and I find that I am helpless."
So we get these kind of questions. What is most important to understand in oneness is the content of your mind is NOT AT ALL important. It could be anything. It could be violence, non-violence, anger, hatred, jealousy frustration, fear, what not. All that whole range of thoughts, feelings and emotions. We're just not concerned about them. Because we are not trying to change at all. There is no effort to change because we cannot change. We cannot change because these are the properties of the human mind which is very ancient and there is only one mind.
What is it we're trying to do? What is this change we're talking about? On the one hand, we say no change and on the other hand, we still do seem to talk about some sort of change. All that we are talking about is please become intensely aware of what is going on. That's all. There is nothing else you could do. There is nothing else you should do. That is why we're talking about it as effortless effort.
The only effort is slightly becoming aware of what is going on and then saying. "Okay. Let me become aware." That's all.
Then, as you try to become aware, you will realize it's next to impossible. It's that difficult to start with. That's when you throw in the towel and say "Oh my God it is not possible." That is the time, we say, you better surrender. This surrender is not some kind of slavish surrender. It's just the realization that you cannot do anything and nothing is happening. It's then that you invoke the divine through a blessing. Then the blessing will take you where you should go. And where do you go? You go nowhere because there is nowhere to go in the first place. You only become more and more aware of what is going on.
And the teaching says that first step, the last step. This does not mean that after you have taken the first step, you are going to go somewhere. You are not going to go anywhere at all for the simple reason there is nowhere to go. So what's the first step? The first step is awareness. What's the last step? Awareness. So what is there? There is only awareness. Awareness is the be all and end all of all things. Please understand that awareness is not going to take you anywhere. It is not going to free you of jealousy. Understand that awareness is not going to free you from anger. It's not going to make you into a saint. No, not at all Awareness will only be giving you freedom with jealousy, Freedom with anger, freedom with hatred. You will stop tampering with them and you will stop trying to change them. What is in the beginning is awareness. What is in the middle is awareness. What is in the end is awareness. When you are aware, you are fully awake, When you are awake, you are living and no more existing.
Right now you are in the state of day dreaming. All the while, you are caught up in this conflict the thought is producing. You are somewhere and you're trying to get somewhere. That is the movement of thought. You are engaged in this and you are caught up in that. That is why you do not live, but you are merely existing. This is the situation which is going to change in the year 2012. Even before that it is going to happen to lots of people if you correctly understand the teachings.
So I'll repeat, you are not going anywhere. You are not going to change anything. There is nothing you can change. All that we're expecting from you is please become intensely aware of what is going on. It's a beautiful movie that you could enjoy. There is no better movie than that. And no better book you can read than that. You cannot read it as long as there is no awareness. To be aware is all there is. To be aware is to have the presence in you. As your awareness deepens, the presence deepens. And there comes a point when you are so intensely aware that the presence is almost completely there. The presence is what you call God. At that point you become God. You and the presence are totally one. You, the awareness and the presence will all completely become one. That's when you see for yourself that you are God. We are trying to get there.
So, I hope that from this moment onwards, you will just see what is going on. Don't try to do anything to it. There is nothing you can do to it. It's just there. That is the truth. That is inner integrity. That is being authentic. Don't be indifferent to It, please, but be intensely aware of it. That's all you have to do. That is the oneness teaching. That's the most fundamental teaching. Other teachings are mainly supportive of it. Like saying the first step is like the last step. Experience it. When you try to experience it, there is no experiencing at all. When you're aware, experience is automatically taking place. You are experiencing reality as it is. What we are merely trying to describe, but then you try to put an effort, "Okay, I must now experience suffering. All right, I must experience reality is at is. All right I'll be a better human being." There is no such thing as a better human being or a lower human being.
Out of this awareness action arises spontaneously. That is what we call action. Everything else you may call action, but it is merely activity. This action -- some may call it who are not awakened good action and some may call it bad action, right action or wrong action. For someone who is awakened, it is just action. For him, it is perfect action. This arises from complete awareness.
I would like you to start contemplating on what I have just now spoken for the following month and let us see what your experiences are. From that, I'll start proceeding further. These interactions with you is what we call Level 3. I'll give you more clarification after the teachings. I'll give you some deeper insights, the power to give you a blessing. I will meditate with you, I will take on your questions. All this comes with Level 3. And level 3 you can attend or come to level 2, or you could come to level 1, or merely the Oneness Experience course, or even for a new person if you are invited, you are most welcome to come. Others can go back to Level 2 or to Level 1 or Oneness Experience to get a better understanding. But all are welcome for this.
That is the message I would like to communicate to you after hearing the questions from Mexico, Sweden, and Italy. I thought this was very important to communicate with you.
Broadcast to Dubai 091211
091219*The skype call begins with the Dubai audience doing aarthi, singing the moola mantra and bhajans while Bhagavan is sitting with eyes closed.*
Dubai audience: Pranams Bhagavan!
Bhagavan blesses them: Love you all!
Dubai audience shouts: Looooove you!! We love you so much Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: Love you too. Shall we start with the questions?
Dubai audience: Yes, Bhagavan. We’ll ask the spiritual questions first Bhagavan.
Bhagavan: OK.
Q1: Bhagavan, we want to know, between now and december 2012, to help the oneness movement and the mission, what do we need to do as individuals, as families, as sevaks and as a community?
Bhagavan: As individuals, you must become deekshagivers, because 2012 is all about giving deekshas. We would be forming groups of devotees, like the group now in this hall, and what you would have to do is, in the year 2012 starting in January, we will teach you a special technique whereby you’ll be giving deekshas to each other.
Now this could be 4 times in the month of January, maybe 5 or 6 times in February, until December 2012. In the month of December 2012, it has to be everyday. So we want committed groups of people who will be able to come and spend some time everyday in the month of December 2012. That’s when the transition is going to take place. And as you give these blessings to each other, the deekshas to each other, I will also be joining you in the Skype. I will be meditating along with you and I will also be giving you deeksha collectively.
The result would be, you would be moving into very high states of consciousness and as that happens, we will be influencing the world. For example, as you go into those high states, if you have a map of UAE (United Arab Emirates) in front of you and ultimately when you give the deeksha to the map, strangely the people of UAE will receive a very powerful blessing and their level of consciousness will be altered. *loud applause from Dubai*
All this is possible the month of December 2012, for the simple reason, the three great cycles are coinciding. We have a 5000 year old cycle which started at the end of the Mahabharata war. That cycle would be closing in the year 2012. We also have a 26 400 year cycle which begins with yugas. All the yugas happened in that timeframe. That cycle also is closing in the year 2012. And then we have a 650 000 year cycle, the most massive cycle, that also is closing in the year 2012. So it’s a very rare phenomenon that these three cycles are closing in the year 2012.
Not only that, 2012, according to revelations and according to certain other calculations, very ancient, is the midpoint of the Universe. This Universe began from a small, infinite, resemblant thought. That was the beginning of this Universe, much smaller than even an individual electron. So small was the Universe in the beginning and that has now grown to this stage. The Universe is now middleaged and it’s lifetime now is another 13.7 billion years as the cycle closes. That is supposed to be one day for Brahma and thousand days for Brahma is equal to one day for Vishnu and thousands days of Vishnu is equal to one day of Shiva and thousands days of Shiva is equal to one day of Shakthi.
Now we are going to enter the midpoint of Brahma’s day. Now what is understood by this is, the Universe which was a single, little, infinitely small thought has grown up to this size. The One has become the many. Not that it has become the many, it appears as the many, and this beautiful creation has moved to this point. It’s like building a home and then you do a grahapravesham and you enter the home. So this is like grahapravesham for the whole of humanity in the year 2012 and then we are going to enter a totally new age. So all this work is about entering this new age.
Now when this new age comes, what happens is, there’s a change in pranic energies, which is what is responsible for a change in human consciousness, which is responsible for change in human perception, which is responsible for the way humans experience reality. Reality would remain the same, but the way we experience reality would be vastly different. When you experience it differently, you will discover Heaven on Earth. That is what is going to happen.
But then, you wait for the rains, when the rains do come, you can not keep quiet, you have to plough the soil to sow the seeds, do all things. So this is like the rains coming in. The new age coming and the energies coming. But then, we have to work for it. Without working, you’re not going to get anywhere. And what is the work? We must raise our levels to higher states of consciousness and it is possible because of these energy changes. And how do we do it? We must become powerful blessing givers. That’s the way to do it.
Now, how to produce blessing givers? It’s not possible for everybody to come to a level 1 or level 2 to India or anywhere and become blessing givers. Therefore, we intend to produce trainers in every country of the world. They are already in other countries and they have started functioning with extraordinarly good results flowing in from December 3rd. Tremendous things are happening now in many, many places. It has started already.
Now, for example, in Dubai we would like to have trainers. And who would be those trainers? Those who are now conducting satsangs, they would become the trainers. We would be training them, in order that they go back and conduct courses in UAE itself. For example, we would first start with what is called Oneness Experience Level 1, that would be the course you conduct. That would be followed by Oneness Experience Level 2, which would be equal to the Level 1 which you are now conducting. And that will be followed by Oneness Experience Level 3, which is the current Level 2.
So all these things would be conducted in UAE itself by the trainers there, whom will be selected from the people who are conducting satsang centers. So then, you will yourself initiate people into becoming blessing givers, so we can have thousands of people who are blessing givers. We need a lot of people to become blessing givers because time is running out. For various reasons, we have lost very, very valuable time and we have to now run faster now to be on time. All this is possible only if it is decentralized and decontrolled. This phenomenon has to be highly decentralized.
When it began in 1989 as a small little baby, it had complete flexibility and zero control. As control increased and flexibility declined, the power got reduced. So we are now moving very, very fast to decontrol and increase flexibility so that the phenomenon would come to full power.
People who came in 1989, when it was at full power, some of them became saints, some of them became sages, just by visiting the campus. That was the power at that time. Now we have to get it back to that power in the year 2012. So all effort would be in that direction.
So, that is what you have got to do. You have to become blessing givers, at the individual level. And what’re the other levels you asked me? Please, repeat the question.
Dubai: What do we need to do as families, sevaks and as a community, Bhagavan?
Bhagavan: Yes, as a family you have to, in order to grow rapidly, you must use family relationships to grow fast. How do you use it? I have often said life is relationships. Now what exactly is relationship? Relationship is a mirror in which you could see yourself. Let us say your wife is nagging you and you’re losing your temper or you are beginning to use certain kinds of words and beginning to accuse her, then you should watch yourself. In that mirror of relationship, you will see who you are. You can never know who the other is, you could only know who you are. When you shout, you would know who you are. When you accuse her, you will know who you are. When you try to find some fault, you will know who you are.
Now, using that, seeing yourself, because the whole thing is about seeing who you are, and then when you see yourself as you are, you would begin to accept yourself, you would love yourself. When that happens you would love your wife, to start by seeing exactly what she is and right now you’re not seeing her actually. You think you know her, you do not know. You would begin to know her, you would begin to accept her, you would love her. When the relationship is OK, it means you are growing rapidly on the spiritual path. And the same thing happens with your children and whomsoever you meet. And the whole family, as relationship improves, suppose there are a hundred families in a particular area, the single family would be able to influence the whole lot. That is the contribution of the family.
Then you’re asking about the community. Now, for example, all those who are in this hall, you must become like a community, must become a oneness community. Because, we are going to move you into very high states of consciousness. Now who could move there? People who have no desires, people who have no problems, people who are sannyasas, only they could move there. But then still I am promising you enlightenment. How is it? Nowhere in human history has this been made possible. It’s all individual seeking. But here are a group of people and you are all grihasthas (sanskrit term for “housholder”), you are full of desires and problems. So how do we go, when you are not sannyasas? *some laughter from audience and someone says “You will do”*
The reason is 2012. We have the energies where people who are grihastha with problems, with desires, would still make it. Not only that. This time it has to be group effort. It’s not going to be an individual working on himself, by himself, NO! You have to work as a group. That is why these satsangs are so important and you must form these oneness communities, which will also help you to deal with the problems that will be emerging before 2012. So as a group we will be working to move into higher states. So you must build up communities, various satsangs and various communities. Otherwise, it’s not possible. That is for the community.
And the other was..? The last part of the question?
Dubai: As sevaks, Bhagavan?
Bhagavan: Seva? Yeah, seva is this only. Having satsang centers, coming to the satsang centers, working together, discussing together, I will give you a teaching, you have to discuss. In India for example after a *inaudible* program, people gathered in a satsang in the evening and they discussed the teaching. They did it, they go into themselves. So a lot of work has to be done on yourselves, that is the seva I want from you. That’s the most important thing for me, working on yourselves, forming groups, getting ready for 2012. That is the seva.
What else is there?
Q2: The next question Bhagavan, you partially answered it. What are the plans and time scales for the next set of processes for us here in the Middle East, Bhagavan?
Bhagavan: See, we will not be coming to the Middle East, we will not be conducting anything there. All dasas who are there will only be in the temple. Our work is to meditate in the temple, to conduct courses for people who come here, Level 1 and Level 2 until such time that the trainers are ready, and then training the trainers and meditating in the temple. This is a very, very special temple.
You must understand that once upon a time there was a planetary civilisation which built the pyramids in Egypt, in Mexico, in South America, in China and many parts of the world. Now, the Egyptian pyramids, if you were to fly in an aeroplane and you were to observe them, you would find that it’s a three dimensional Sri Chakra. That’s what the Egyptian pyramids are. These were built in very ancient times - not what this science is talking about, much more ancient than that, they would soon be discovering that – to affect planetary energies. Structures can affect planetary energies. For example, if the swastika on Hitler’s shoulder, had it been straight, Hitler would have won the war. Fortunately for all of us, it was a little slanted. That was how he lost the war. Structures and forms affect planetary energies.
So that was why the pyramids were built, that was why Stonehenge was built. Similarly, this temple is a three dimensional projection of a Surya Yantra and contains the Sri Chakra in the second floor, it is strategically equally located under the central dome. So it generates tremendous power, probably much more power than the pyramids, to affect planetary energies, which are now changing. And we are here to meditate in that center. We have been trained for that. The dasas have been trained for that. And as we meditate, those energies, let us say if we project the whole thing on Skype, it will directly hit you. Suppose I’m going to be in the temple with the dasas, and meditating and transferring it to you, you would know what power could be unleashed.
That was the purpose for which the temple was built. That was why we wanted all dasas back in India. Unless they are there, they’ve been trained for that, that’s our job. Not going out and conducting programs. That has to come to an end and it has come to an end.
So there will be no processes, no programs whatsoever in UAE or any part of the world. If anybody comes and says “I’m from Oneness”, he is not from Oneness. We have nothing to do with him, he has nothing to do with us. So be very, very clear about it.
If you want the process, come to India. For some time we’ll continue with Level 1 and Level 2, but our function will be to train you people in conducting your own programs. That’s what this whole thing is about. That is where you’ve got to help me. Become trainers, do this work.
You are my heirs. I do not have a heir or heirs, nobody succeeds AmmaBhagavan. We are a phenomenon. How do you succeed a phenomenon? Can you succeed a phenomenon? Not possible. You can succeed to some property, maybe some company, but you cannot succeed to a phenomenon. How can there be successors? Sri *inaudible name* was a phenomenon. Can he have successors? Ramana Maharishi was a phenomenon. Can he have successors? How does one have successors for a phenomenon? Not possible. The phenomenon goes and then it’s dissolved, that’s all. Phenomenon itself will continue, but those who are responsible for it have to go, that’s all. They have to fade away. And, of course, people must continue with the phenomenon and who would that be? That would be the people of the world, the devotees. The phenomenon does not choose people, it’s for everybody, whoever wants it, whoever is capable of doing it, he takes up and he does the work.
Already in India, people are getting ready. Already people have built many temples and they have their temples, they are becoming gurus. It has started already. There are temples where 2000 people will come a day. The devotees have done it. In some parts of India, there are over 500 temples, beautiful temples, even amongst regular temples. It has started already.
So our date is maximum 2014. You, who are now doing satsangs and who are interested, you must grow more and when you probably retire, you must build your own temple, you should be the guru there, you should be the pundit, you should be the purohit (term for someone similar to a priest). All knowledge will be transferred to you, all power will be transferred to you, all esoteric teachings will be transferred to you and then you continue with the work. That is the seva you have to do me. You have to continue this work. The deeksha must continue for humanity. The power must be there. Miracles must go on. Man and God must come together and they must harness Divine energies for whatever they want.
So this is a job that you must do. Not a group of people, that is only a short term commission, that’s all. They’re growing older, they came as young children. The time comes, they’ll get married. We had 220 people at one point of time, now we are less than hundred now. What happened? They got married, they got settled down in life, many of them got married and we’ll be losing some more people in 2010. They’re welcome to do it, I’ll be settling them down in life.
And 2014 when we finally bring down the shutters, those who remain, they will be all beautifully settled in life. They will be given property, they will be given money for a decent life throughout their life and decide they’ll be married. They’ve done their work and of course you commit to all of them because this helped the movement.
So you have to take over. That is the seva I want from you. *Loud applause*
The third question?
Dubai: Bhagavan, you already answered the third question.
Bhagavan: Oh.
Dubai: We will move into the questions we had for clarity Bhagavan.
Bhagavan: OK.
Q3: Some of us want to know if the ex guides, if they ever come back, will they ever come back? What is your opinion? And how do we treat them if they do?
Bhagavan: First of all you’ve got to understand, I have no ill will towards them, I have no anger towards them, I have nothing against them. I personally feel it is my fault. For the simple reason, the three acharyas, they came in quite young and I was their school teacher, the one who was directing the school. I was tough and firm and they were very, very obedient people, very, very good students. All the time bowing down to us, sitting at our feet and learning.
And then by the time they finished grade ten, I had become Bhagavan. And again, they were at Bhagavan’s feet, doing seva, non-stop for almost 22 years. They missed out on a developmental phase, which happens to every human being, when they break away from their parents, when they discover their own identity. Normally, what I should have done was, I should have given them a break. 3, 4 years I must have made them into a *Bhagavan says some sanskrit word which probably means some kind of worldly person* going around and enjoy the world and come back. That’s how it’s normally done. But I do not know, somehow I made a mistake. I missed out the *same sanskrit word again* part. So they were never allowed to come into their own, because I thought everything was fine. That was the mistake I made.
But they must break away. They must discover their own identity. It happens with your son, it happens with everybody else. The most crucial phase, I missed out. When that happens, generally by 34 or 35, it comes back with a bang! This is a biological phenomenon, it’s a psychological phenomenon. It had to come and it came. So how can I blame them?
My pain and my anger is about my work, because I’m losing rapidly time. Because whatever has happened has disturbed the faith of people. It is very, very difficult to build up faith in people. People have removed sri murtis. People have done many, many things. They’re losing faith. Now if that happens, how do I continue with 2012? That is the damage that I’m worried about, I’m angry about. Something else would have happened, I have no problem, because over a 120 people have left and they’ve all settled in life, they’ve taken up jobs.
There was an acharya.. this is not the first time an acharya has left. Three acharyas have left earlier. This isn’t the first time at all. But this time, strangely, noises are being made. And one acharya for example, very young, she finished her grade ten at age 13. She said “Bhagavan please admit me into the tenth lesson”, I said “Fine, do it”. 13 years old.
14 years or so she remained with me. But she came up to me one day and said “Bhagavan, I want to go into the world, study, experience the world”. I said “OK, fine”. And she also wanted to talk with *inaudible* and that kind of thing. 14 years – no academics. And then she goes out. And then in phases plus 1, plus 2, finished engineering, then applies to Berkeley, Berkeley University.
And they asked her, “What were you doing for 14 years, without studying?”
She says “I was a oneness monk”.
“I don’t know what work this is. We’ll admit you straight away into a Ph.D. course.
And she raced through her course. *applauds from Dubai*
Some people undertook a big job, finished their MBA and now holds a very good position now. Some others got married and have children. This has been happening all the time. Acharyas have been leaving, dasas have been leaving. It’s not to find fault with it. The time has come.
When they came here, the whole thing, was known, was designed to be shut down. In the beginning you would find in Satyaloka “To set man totally and unconditionally free”. And look at the book, Arjuna Ardagh’s book, page 189, which I’ve often referred to. I’ve always said it’s going to be dissolved. Talk to all the old coordinators all around the world, they’ll tell you Bhagavan had already informed. It’s going to be closed down.
Now how do you close down? Take young people inside, they get very good experiences and then they go back to their lives, and finally, it’s automatically shut down. In Japan, for example, people go to Zen monasteries, are Zen monks for sometime and then come back to the world. Those are the ones who win the Nobel prize. They have got very good training, they are quite sharp, they can do very well in the external world. And it’s time they go back in the external world.
The whole thing is designed to implode, to shut down. Because it should not continue, it can not continue, because if it continues it controls the phenomenon. The phenomenon loses power. It has to go, including myself, including AmmaBhagavan. We must fade away. It’s not just that the acharyas fades away, dasas fades away. Everybody has to fade away. And people must emerge as trainers and become teachers in their own right. That’s what we’re aiming at. Not even oneness teachers, that’s only until 2014. Thereafter, you’re a teacher in your own right. You do the work. You’re worldly people. You know the world much better than one who is a monk. You can interpret things better. I have seen western people, even some indians, dutily expound the teachings, because of their wordly experience. Even some of the dasas, who are so strong in staying back, are those who have had worldly experience, who are well qualified, who have done great jobs.
For example, I have a dasa here who has been connecting with you. Do you know what his qualification is? At the age of 24, he was a full fledged chartered accountant. He took only 15 days to finish his exam. One day, he said “Bhagavan, I would like to become a CEO(?)”, I said “Go!”. 15 days he prepared his CEO(?). At the same time he finished cost accountancy, at the same time he finished the law course, at the same time he became a fullfledged company executive. All four by the age 24, and tremendous experience in the world. And these are lots like. There are people have been bank employees, they’ve had work life. There’s one who had a divorce, got married and divorced, and became a monk. So they have got worldly experience. They are the ones who are very, very strong. Similarly, you have worldly experience, you will be excellent teachers. It must be passed on to you.
Therefore, my only pain is that I’m losing time, because this caused such disturbance. But fortunately, nothing happened in South America, the whole of South America, nothing happened in North America, nothing happened in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia. The problem was only in Italy and it has got settled. Now I do not know what’s the banishment in Dubai.
Dubai: No Problem, Bhagavan.
Bhagavan: My only concern now is Dubai, I think. I think the whole world is now at peace. *laughter from audience*
It’s only you people that have to set things right. So you are the ones who’s asking me these kind of questions. These questions have to be moved away now. It’s all over. We’re doing spiritual work, solid spiritual work. We are meditating, people are getting blown into states. But here in Dubai, we see, you’re talking about all kinds of things other than spirituality. *more laughter from audience*
So the whole world is now back to order. The thing is, as you disturb people’s faith, the blessing will decline. You will not become a good blessing giver. I want blessing givers who can help people. And how are you going to grow? What has happened has disturbed peoples’ faith. Not only that, it has produced confusion. Tremendous confusion it’s creating. They have nothing do with me. I have nothing to do with them. They have founded a company for commercial purposes. It’s a commercial venture. It is meant to make profits. And there must be some formula for dividing the profits. This is a spiritual organization. And I’ve been telling we should not make any more money than what is required. We are spiritual people. That’s a commercial organization which will be running those courses like any psychological course. And people will go there because they call themselves from Oneness and they say they have AmmaBhagavan’s blessings, when it does not have. People might mistake that to be Oneness, while that is quite the opposite of what Oneness is.
As they’ve said, there are ideological differences. What are they? I say 2012. They don’t even think of 2012. They don’t believe in it. They say it won’t happen. Then there’s AmmaBhagavan who brought out the phenomenon. AmmaBhagavan are fading away. I want to fade away in 2014, they want me to fade away now itself. *laughter from audience*
Then there’s grace. It’s taken a back seat. It’s all psychology now. Then Effort. I have also spoken about effort. What’s new about effort? And the miracles are gone. All things are removed. There are serious differences.
You might wonder why are enlightened people quarreling? So, first of all, assume that they’re enlightened for a moment. I have never, ever said they are enlightened. I have only said they were in great enlightened states. There are so many people in the world who have great enlightened states. But an enlightened state does not give you enlightenment. I have often said mystical experiences do not a mystic make. It is my very famous statement. You can have the grandest enlightened states. See a movie called Samsara, a Chinese movie, you will know that. One man was there in a state for 3 years, 3 months, 3 weeks, 3 days and then he comes out of the state. A lot of difficulty. Then you see what happens to his life. He’s worse than a normal human being. State means nothing. So they were in great states, I never, ever declared them to be enlightened. People have assumed them to be enlightened.
Have you seen enlightened people? Do you know Buddha and Mahavira are contemporaries. They lived close by. They never met. They differed. Their disciples use to meet and keep arguing and fighting. Do you think that all enlightened people have the same view? Not at all!
Ramana and Sri Aurobindo are contemporaries. You know Aurobindo sometimes used to make some contemptuous statements about Ramana. He wouldn’t agree to Ramana’s state and Ramana would not agree to Sri Aurobindo’s state.That does not mean they are enemies. That does not mean they have joined hands and danced together in public, saying they’re all enlightened. *laughter from audience*
In recent times you had UG Krishnamurti and Jiddu Krishnamurti. Both are enlightened, terrible enemies. At a personal level, excellent relationship, but then, they would not at all agree. J. Krishnamurti used to say “do this, you will grow, you will make it”. UG Krishnamurti says “Nobody can become enlightened! Forget about it!” They are completely the opposite.
You also have some strange idea that enlightened people are very calm, peaceful, and loving, quiet. No, that is for the saints. And please understand I’ve said, I’m not a saint. Saints may be very loving, very kind and very sweet. Now with regards to a person like me, I’ll just respond to some event and that’s all. I won’t go back and think about it.
The Buddha, for example, he used to be very angry sometimes and used to shout. It’s called the lion’s roar. Do you know what happened to the Buddha? He had a huge number of monks. Altogether with him, he had over 10,000 people. So, there used to be a lot of quarrelsome fights. He had a terrible time running it. Once a group was fighting and the Buddha interfered and said “Calm down” and gave them some advice. You know what they told him? They told him, “Get out!”. Buddha was asked to get out. *laughter from audience*
The Buddha moved away to the forest. Then the people came to know about it. And the people said, “No food for the monks until they bring the Buddha back.“ They did not move so easily. And the kings told the monks “If you don’t get the Buddha back, I’m going to trash you.” *more laughter*
Then they all went to the forest and fell at his feet and brought him back. This happened 2500 years ago. There was another guy there called *inaudible name*, you must have heard about him. This fellow used to come and ask him all the time, “When are you going to make me your successor? Make me your successor! “ And the Buddha, do you know what words, I will give you his exact words. “I will hand over this movement to a dog, but not to you.” And this guy died before the Buddha. *laughter and some applause*
These problems have always been there. Recently I met a sannyasa from southern India, and he told me how his shishya (disciple) tried to inject a gas bubble in him. Somehow he wriggled out of it and that fellow is in jail now. So, these things happen. So many times you must have seen these things happen. This happens. So, enlightened people does not mean they’ll be sitting together and dancing together. Not at all like that.They’ll have their own different opinions. Very, very different opinions.
Let me tell you at a personal level, I have a very good relationship with all these people. Very, very good relation. They in fact came to me along with Anthony Robbins who brought them. And they apologized to me and they hugged me and they kissed me. Samardarshini, of course being a female, she came the next day because she had gone to the police to lodge a case against somebody who was making use of her Facebook, putting all kinds of false things there. So she came.
So I have been with them for over 20 years. They are like my children. How do you think there will be anger? I have no anger against anybody.
Many years ago a man came to me to kill me. He strangled my neck. After some time I told him, “please remove your hands.” And he gently let go of his hands. Because he could not actually crush me. And for 5 years, I helped this man out financially. For 5 years, a man who came to kill me. So, I know what is love and what is compassion. I don’t want to go on talking about myself.
I have the greatest love for them and I wish them well. *applause*
Don’t be playing around with Oneness. Don’t say this is Oneness! You do something. Whatever you want. Let it be a totally new program. Otherwise you’ll be confusing people. They’ll think “This is Oneness and that is Oneness, there’s two parts to Oneness?” How could there be two branches to Oneness? Oneness is one. We cannot have two branches. It cannot be divided. It’s advaita, non-two it is.
That is what this whole work is about. You do your own course. Whatever you do. Already they are using others teachings, they’re borrowing things from other teachers, mixing up. Let them do, I have no objections, but don’t bring in Oneness there. If you use Oneness teachings, I would say it is video piracy. *laughter and applauds from audience*
This processes were founded by me. The Level 1 course, took me 5 minutes to formate. Just 5 minutes to produce Level 1. Level 2, three minutes to format. My work it is. And the LIO, it is my format. Everything, anything! The words they use, the language they use, everything is mine. I have trained them. I taught them English, I taught them mathematics, I taught them history. Everything I have taught them. I taught them the teaching. These are my teachings.
And how do you push me away and take away the teachings? Suppose you will start a company with somebody, he takes over the company, would you agree to it?
Dubai: No way.
Bhagavan: And declares it to be his company. It must be your own, it must be your teachings, it must be your framework, it must be yours. Why do you make use of somebody elses? That leads to confusion among people. And you say it’s got our blessings, while it does not have. You go on sending messages to people, “We got Bhagavan’s blessings, Bhagavan has done this to us”. Not at all, you’re not with me. You have never even met me, these dasas, they have never even met me. They came from countries, they met in Chennai, they went to some resort.. why a secret meeting? They don’t even tell me what’s going on. You secretly meet. You are my staff. If your staff do not report to you, what would you do, I want to ask?
Someone in Dubai: Dismiss.
Bhagavan: Would you take any action on them? Would you be blessing them and forgiving them?
Someone in Dubai: No way!
Bhagavan: Then there’s no question then. Do it for your staff, I will do it for myself. *laughter*
So you gather up there, you use my money to stay in resorts, use my money to enjoy yourselves. It’s all my money, it is. Not that I hold that money, in fact, I hold no money at all. I’m a virtual beggar, it’s all in their hands. But still, it is theoretically, it is my money, it is. And they’re having a merryful time.
And all these people got spoiled only when they left India. And who spoiled them? You people spoiled them! *great noise and laughter from audience*
They got their hands on all kinds of entertainment, all kinds of comfort for them, so much money was given to them. All things, you have spoiled them and you destroyed my order and now you’re destroying my mission until now.
Dubai audience: Nooooooo Bhagavan! Nooooooo!
Bhagavan: I gave you my mission. I’m going to hold all of you responsible.
Dubai audience: Nooooooo! *laughter* We love you Bhagavan! We are here to help you out! We are with you Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: They are sannyasas. You must treat a sannyasa like a sannyasa! Not spoil them like that. *Bhagavan chuckles as he says this*
And they’re lost everywhere, they came and they said, “Oh my god, the world is sooo beautiful! Bhagavan, the world is sooo beautiful. I can’t be present here anymore. Dubai was heaven on Earth”. *lots of laughter while Bhagavan is saying this, difficult to hear what Bhagavan says*
I have lost them. Another one comes and says “Oh Bhagavan, the world is too beautiful!” I said “OK.” We gave them a nice reception, we hugged each other, and granted them and we gave a very beautiful send out.
Thirdly, another one said, “Oh Bhagavan, I also discovered the world is too beautiful!” *Bhagavan starts chuckling*. I don’t blame them. The thing is, they are young people, the age has come, so the world is tempting. And you people are out there showing them “ching, ching ching” (money sound?) “Come, come, come!” *more laughter from audience*
I told them, we need people now to meditate in the temple. So, you have landed me in a soup. *laughter*
So anyway, I have all the love for them. If they do come back, I will be taking them back. But if they don’t come back as monks, then we’ll remain friends, that’s all. We’ll continue to be friends. They can not forget me and I can not forget them. They can not stop loving me and I can not stop loving them. That will be at the personal level.
For example, you must know that I and my son, we have an extraordinary beautiful relationship. If you have doubts, next time we’re on Skype, we’ll both of us will come together.. *laughter from audience, can’t hear what Bhagavan says*
At a personal level, all things are absolutely excellent. All that they want is, they want AmmaBhagavan to go away. So finally when one of the dasas asked them, “Would you come back if Amma and Bhagavan leave the scene?”. They said “We’ll definitely come back”. So all that they want is, they feel “Old people, pack up your bag and baggage, hand over everything! We will run the show. We know better. And this way the work will move much faster, we can’t wait any longer. And we want all the power and the freedom to run the show the way we want to run the show.” And my question is, am I that old?
Dubai audience: NOOOOOOOOOO!!
Bhagavan: So I’m telling you, afterwards you can *inaudible* shutting the whole thing down. So they’re very eager to take over before that. So how can I allow that? You need a lot of experience to run this, it is not so easy. I haven’t done my Level 3 yet. I have to push you people. After 2012, I’m prepared to say good bye. After 2014, I’m shutting it all down.
I have made a commitment to mankind. All over the world, I have promised people higher states of consciousness in the year 2012. So I must be in command, I must do it. How could I hand over it now? So all that they want is “You go away from there. No problems, we will take over. We want the freedom”. What’s the freedom? The freedom that you Dubai people have taught them.
Dubai: No, no, no! Bhagavan, we are with you!
Bhagavan: So how could I allow that? So I think I have answered the questions. *Smiles and chuckle from Bhagavan and laughter from audience*
Dubai: Bhagavan, you’ve answered all the other remaining questions, Bhagavan.
Dubai audience: Bhagavan, we are with you! We love you Bhagvan!
Bhagavan: My only concern is, I do not want to miss out this last chance for mankind. I feel, I know it, if we miss out, maybe after 50 years or 75 years, at best a 100 years, the story is over for the planet. So this is the last chance for man. We have to shift in our consciousness. We can’t go on living like this. We will destroy the planet and destroy ourselves. So, a little bit of effort, if you can put together, we would help mankind get there and you will have the satisfaction for the rest of your life, that you helped bring about this great transformation to humanity.
And not only that, don’t think that you die or vanish after death, life continues forever and forever. I’m going to show you when you come to India, through special processes, that life never ends. And you will continue to grow in other realms and you’ll have this satisfaction that while you were on Bhur loka, on this planet, you made such a wonderful contribution for the good of mankind.
So let’s get going with spirituality. That’s more important. We should soon forget this thing. We are happy, they are happy, you’re happy, everybody’s happy. Let’s get going with our work now.
So what’s the next thing?
Dubai audience: Bhagavan, one last request from all of us here in Dubai. The recession has got hold of us all over again and there are new problems coming up. We want your blessings and your protection to take us through this, in 2010 also, with the recession that we’re expecting. We want your blessings and your protection. All of us are requesting that, Bhagavan.
Bhagavan: All of you will have all my blessings. I’ll be with you. The coming two years could be difficult in many, many ways. I’ve seen businesses could become difficult, jobs could become difficult, there could be various other problems. I will see you through.
Dubai audience applauds: Thank you Bhagavan! Thank you! Thank you!
Bhagavan: I know you are in Dubai. Dubai can be badly affected. I’ll be with you and I’ll help you out. Don’t worry.
Dubai audience applauds again: Thank you Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: Now shall we move on to prayer?
Dubai: Yes, Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: So pray the way you have been taught to pray. So do it exactly as I’ve taught you and you’ll get very, very good results. So next time we’ll be meeting, let’s go deeper into spirituality. Let this be the last time we are talking about this kind of subject. Let it be closed.
Dubai: Yes, Bhagavan. Thank you Bhagavan.
Little girl in Dubai who has been trying to get Bhagavan’s attention for a while: I love you AmmaBhagavan!
Bhagavan says affectionately: Yes, yes, I love you too! *laughter from audience*
Little girl: Thank you AmmaBhagavan.
Dubai: Bhagavan, how is Amma?
Bhagavan: She’s very, very fine. She was very, very sad, but after the last week she has recovered. It was very painful to her. But she has now recovered her.
Dubai: Convey our love to Amma! We all love her, Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: I’ll communicate to her, yes. I’ll communicate to her.
Dubai: Thank you Bhagavan!
*Silent prayer and meditation*
Bhagavan: Love you all!
Dubai: Love you Bhagavan! We love you so much Bhagavan! Thank you Bhagavan!
Bhagavan: Love you all.

Q1: Bhagavan, we have to do the courses locally, so how can we make sure we inherit the Oneness spirit and apply local wisdom and practices? We understand your vision is to do programs locally.
Bhagavan: Yes. We will begin to train you really intensely, and as we train you, you also bring the local wisdom and practices, and we will help you integrate that too. And after that you will conduct your courses without any interference from our side. So what will be the organizational structure, what will be the charge, is all completely your affair. We want give complete and total freedom to everybody on the planet, we don't want to be a controlling agency nor a spiritual hierarchy, and we want to give away everything we have.
That's what Oneness is supposed to do. Oneness is to set man totally and unconditionally free, so we are heading toward that direction. Right now we have some kind of control structure, which is not good for the work, this work is spiritual work, it needs freedom. And freedom is being curtailed, therefore the work is losing time. Therefore it's high time that people take over these courses, according to local wisdom and tradition.
So we are moving in that direction. Suppose you come from China, we will train you in Oneness, you can bring traditional wisdom or traditional knowledge, we will help you integrate it, and then you can go back to your own country and do the course yourself. That's the answer to the first question.
Q2: After I came back from Oneness, I felt very much in the presence, but now I feel somehow stuck, so how shall I keep being in the presence and how can I keep on connecting with you? When I connect with you I felt very happy. How shall I do in my daily life to keep on being in the presence, to keep on being connected with you?
Bhagavan: You must start with the external, that is to become aware of our bodily sensations, aware of what is happening in the external world, like physical sounds, physical sensations, and physical smells. In short it is the physical senses that you must become intensely aware.
Then we move inward, then you will see what's going on inside, which will lead to what we call the inner integrity. As you go deep inside yourself, you will actually discover who you are. Now who you are is actually very different from what you think you are.
Once you discovered who you are, the next step is to accept yourself as you are. The third step is to love yourself as you are. When that happens, the Presence automatically and very naturally answers to you. There are a few more steps to be taken, which I will be guiding you on the Skype.
So as you meditate along with me, you will progress very very fast, then you will be able to make it even before 2012, but a large number of people will be able to make it in 2012. What you need to do is to start the practice of inner integrity. I recommend starting with external awareness, then move to inner integrity. And I will further guide you to be in the Presence as clear as possible.
Q3: So when you start to train the trainers to do all the courses locally, how often you will talk to the givers via Skype?
Bhagavan: Yes I will speak to you once in 15 days. And the courses will start at the end of February and the beginning of March.
Q4: (That's wonderful.) Bhagavan, you said money does not go well with spirituality. But without money, how can the movement expand to benefit more people? Without market oriented approach, how can we make sure people get the best program?
Bhagavan: We are not against money as such. Money will be required for running the establishment, or required for running the mixer. I am only against spiritual work functioning as a corporate house and making a profit. I am not against making money, or against money itself. We are a spiritual organization, we are a group of monks, we have taken the vows of a monk. Monks have no business dealing with significance, with importance, with power, with money.
We must be free of all this craving. We do need money to survive, but why should we need more money than what's required? What do we do with that money? It wouldn't serve any purpose. All I am saying is: do not make any profit, just take enough for survival, and localize things so people can all time come to the program.
I am told that going to Fiji cost anything between 10,000 to 12,000 dollars. People are complaining that it costs too much for them. 2012is the collective time that mankind must awake; we must move into the highest state of consciousness, otherwise the planet will be destroyed. In another 50 or 75 years the planet will be gone. So we have to speed up. This kind of charges, this kind of courses where people must come to India, to Italy or to Fiji, must go. How is the work going to explode? They should be empowered to initiate people, they are not being allowed to initiate until December the third. So how can the movement be built up?
We don't have much time left. We don't have another 20 years, we just have two more years Sir. Money is one hurdle, the other is asking people to come to the process in India, or to go to Italy, or to Fiji, this way it's not going to build up. This external body, we don't need it, so it has to be removed.
That's why I said by saying free the courses. I am not saying don't take money at all, I am saying go take the money necessary to run the courses, we need money to survive. It's not you. You can charge. You can do whatever you want with money, because you must survive, but we should not function like that because we are monks sir. We are becoming more and more like a corporate house, this cannot go on. That is what I said.
Q5: Bhagavan, do you want to share with us your vision for oneness movement from now to year 2012? So the givers in China would like to share your vision, and your priority for the Oneness movement.
Bhagavan: The 2012 is all about a change of perception. 2012 is an energy shift which I am not bringing about. That is a natural event because you know that the sun, the earth and the center of the galaxy will almost come into a line. When this happens, it is going to be a huge energy shift. We are going to make use of the energy shift to bring about a change in human perception.
That is, we will end this alienation between man and man. Today we feel separate, that will soon be gone if we make use of all these energies. How? Because large number of people should go into higher states of consciousness, the others will naturally move to that state. We don't have to work with the whole humanity. That's one thing we are not going to do.
China is spiritually very, very evolved for the simple reason that China is going to become the world's number one country much sooner than most people expect. Much much sooner than most people expect. So it's going to be the world's leading country, the world's number one country. Now along with that, also if the consciousness of the country will go up, you can imagine what impact it will have on the planet. The population, the wealth, the military might, the power, as world's number 1 nation. An ancient civilization, almost an unbroken civilization, tremendous wisdom. That wisdom will surface as you grow in consciousness, you will discover your own ancient wisdom. That will come back. What is ancient wisdom? It is all about enlightenment, that's all!
It will come back naturally. Imagine China is materially prosperous, and also spiritually very developed, what combination that is? What will that do to the planet? In India, there is a temple, a very ancient temple, where the whole world history is codified on the temple towers. It says just before the Golden Age arrives, it will be the yellow people. At that time they do not know about China, you know. But we have always known this as China. They are right on schedule. China will emerge, then it will be the Golden Age. So it's very amazing. Even though it could be a communist country, many, many changes are going to take place. People's perception, nobody can halt it, it will naturally change.
For example, if you look at how the Berlin wall collapse. About 60,000 of these Germans marched to Hungary trying to meet the president. People are being shot dead. The guards are asking the local commander: "Sir, give the permission to shoot, and more troops, Sir" And he said: "Wait, I will talk to the president", and they ask the president, and the president says: "Wait, I will give orders." And he contacted the Soviet Ambassador, and the Soviet Ambassador says: "Wait" He contacts Gorbachev, and Gorbachev does not answer the phone back. He listens, but does not answer. So the ambassador can not give orders, the president can not give orders, the commander can not give orders, the guards can not give orders, so they let people to cross over.
The question is: How did people do it? How strange it is that they were taking to the heights to cross over the border. At what stage the commander did not act, did ask for higher authority? And Gorbachev did not respond. Much later Gorbachev says: "Well, I believe in democracy." Something happened to him.
There was this cold war meeting between Reagan and Gorbachev going on. At that time there was a person called Tony Robbins. He is a very close friend of mine, he works with me in Oneness. So he was asking Gorbachev: "At what point did your perception change?" Because they were both fighting each other like anything. Reagan said to him: "Your state is an empire of evil." Gorbachev replied: "Yours is an empire of evil." Three of us are only accusing each other. Then suddenly Gorbachev got up, walk up and down. Then president went up to Gorbachev and said: "Gobi, let us open the gate." According to Gorbachev, Gorbachev told this to Tony Robbins, and he told it to me, that he said at that moment something happened in his head, and he said: "I can believe this man." The next few months, the cold war ended. So things changes, and he changes.
So there is going to be a massive pouring of energy in 2012, much much more than 1989, people's perception is going to change. And it can be used for any purpose. Our purpose is for spiritual growth, so we can be better human being, so we can end this alienation. We become close to one another. Between husband and wife there should be closeness, between parents and children there must be closeness. Between people and friends there must be closeness. Between government and people there must be closeness. We must feel oneness. We should surpass all these divisions, and national divisions. All these look barbarous to us to say "I am an Indian" "I am a Pakistani." that will look very barbarous. To say "I am a Hindu.You are a Christian." will look barbarous. All these will naturally fade away, and we need oneness. Because people will discover their true nature, and their true nature is Oneness. That is what's going to happen, and we have to help with that process.
Certainly China has to play a very very important role. As I told you today with the Indian temples that they are going to be the harbinger of the new age. You can see that China is racing ahead much much faster than everybody believes. Along with that, I also believe there will also be a change in consciousness. If you work with these people, it's going to happen. That's what I see in the future. Yes.

Q1: Youth are asking how to reach clarity about their mission in life.
The first thing to understand is that There is no person inside us, only personalities. We may have a lot of personalities inside us, but to have a clear vision we must have at least four strong personalities.
These four personalities, are the king personality, warrior personality, the magician personality, and the monk personality. The king is that which is clear headed and decisive. The warrior personality is that which is never tired of fighting. The magician personality thinks everything is possible, nothing is impossible. The monk personality is one that leads a simple, austere life and is completely detached from any situation.
The youth must deliberately practice these personalities and cultivate them and apply them to different situations in their lives. As they keep applying them, something very strange happens. They'll get, almost like a movie, a full vision of their life and what is the best thing to do and what you will love to do. The connections will happen very naturally and they will also know how to go about it. And things will come into place. That is how the youth must discover their vision.
Q2: Some people are not able to feel the presence. Can you tell us how to feel the presence, how to be sure you are in touch with the presence?
Bhagavan: To be in touch with the presence, you must have tremendous internal integrity. As you practice, you will get in touch with the real problem. Right now what you say is the problem is the created problem, not the real problem. Inner integrity has to be used to get in touch with the real problem.
When you get in touch with the real problem, what happens is that all internal conflict ceases. Once internal conflict ceases, thought slows down and finally thought ceases altogether. When thought ceases, the presence comes in.
The proof that the presence has come in is that if you're talking to your wife, you'll feel complete oneness with your wife. If you're talking to a friend, you'll feel complete oneness with your friend, if you're walking on the road, you'll feel oneness with the stranger, If you're looking at a tree, you'll feel complete oneness with the tree. Oneness is the proof that the presence has come inside.
Q3: Can you tell us about the full meaning of integrity and relationships between integrity and presence?
Bhagavan: Inner integrity is a tool to see what is happening inside us. It does not judge, it does not condemn it does not offer explanations. It is merely seeing what is going on. As you go inside, you'll discover that there are terrible things inside you, There is fear, there is lust, there is anger, there is jealousy, there is envy, there is no love, there is no connectedness. You'll see a lot of terrible things. You may not like what you see, but then, you must continue to see what is there.
Then you will discover that what is there is not only in you, but in every human mind. Not only in the human mind, but it has always been so ever since man came on the planet.
You will then discover that these are aspects of the human mind. It has been so for millenniums. The mind has not changed. The brain has not dramatically changed for the few millenniums. Fear is there. Desire is there. Anger is there. Jealousy is there, Love is not there, etc. Objects have changed but the structure has not changed. Might have been fear of the tiger earlier on and now fear of the stock market.
You'll then discover that there is no change possible. When the impossibility of change strikes you, your mind falls silent. Without effort, without energy, you'll find very naturally there is acceptance, followed by love and very soon it is followed by the presence. That is the connection between inner integrity and the presence. If you are to follow external integrity also, it will be very powerful, but also very dangerous, so I don't advise you do this unless you have the strength to do it.
Q4: Some blessing givers are stuck in facing their core problem. How can they get out of there?
If there is a core problem, and you cannot get out of that, you should stop fighting that. Any effort to understand or analyze the problem will prevent it from getting resolved. please do not try to understand or analyze the problem because The problem is in trying to analyze the problem. Therefore there can not be a solution. So you must realize, first of all, that with that kind of a mind you are not going to solve the problem. External problem is different. I am talking about inner problem. Please, with inner problem do not use analysis. Analysis is paralysis.
Once you realize analysis won't work, you'll feel helpless and then what you will naturally do is to feel helpless and stay with the problem. It is like a hen hatching an egg. You must sit with the problem. Then, the problem will hatch and the solution will come out.
With the fight for Indian independence, Ghandi did not know what to do so he sat quietly with the problem. He was not able to understand the problem so he just stayed with it until a solution came to him from the inside. Solution that came was to boycott salt for India's independence. The whole country was shocked, but eventually they realized that this would free them from British rule. Do not try to fight with the problem, then you'll get your salt for your core problem.

Written by Pia W.
Let us say someone is having a H1N1 problem. So, it's not your H1N1 or somebody's H1N1. It is H1N1, that's all. It is swine flu. It's not your swine flu or his swine flu. You can't have ownership over it. Similarly, you can't have ownership over your mind and its qualities. It is the human mind. Of course, if the brain undergoes some change, maybe things will change. Maybe the future man will be very different. But, as of now, that is operating, genetically programmed, that is how it will function.
So, there will be a negative side to you, which you are all the time masking because you can't exhibit it in public. There are terrible things going on inside because people don't know what would happen. So, there is this negative side, you've got to accept it and not say it is bad or good. It is there, that's all. You've got to take a neutral stand. If you say, ok, it's very good, or something's wrong with it; you could say it's very bad. That also is not alright. It is there. You cannot do anything about it. Because then you realize change is impossible. Now, when change is impossible what do you do? You just keep quiet and keeping quiet is the solution.
So, for this to happen, you must first probe; through probing how do you know what's inside there? So, bravely, go ahead. The blessing will help you to go inside, see a lot of things which you've never imagined before. This is what all the great ones have done. Be it a Buddha, or a Christ. They have done this. They have gone inside. They have seen what is there and they've said, let it be so. When you say, let it be so. You become free of it. It is there, but you're free of it.
This you should practice. You'll see tremendous changes happening to you, most of all conflict will slowly cease. As conflict ceases, slowly something will happen. You'll begin to feel connected and then when you begin to feel connected you'll find that thought subsides, and that which thought cannot touch will start expressing itself. Because that which will come in cannot be touched by thought because it's not a concept, it is not a belief, it is not a view. It is not even an experience the mind always experiences, no. It is something very living. What you call the present. It's very, very living. That would kick in. That would come in of its own and that is the benediction we are talking about.
To get there you have to move step by step: go inside, discover, accept, love. It's an automatic sequence. It does not require great time, energy and effort. Only the first phase takes time, energy and effort; and if you use the blessing is gets quite fast. Thereafter, no time is required, no energy is required, no effort is required. But suppose there is a snake in the hall where you are and then all of you are jumping in great fear. Then, suddenly somebody brings a torch and you discover it's not a snake, it's a rope. Fear has disappeared instantaneously. It has not taken time, it has not taken energy, it has not taken effort. You saw and you are free. To see is to be free.
It does not take any of these things. But, the whole trouble is getting a torchlight, and putting a torchlight, and seeing what is there. That is the effort that is required on your part. Once that is done, slowly you'll find something very remarkable happens. First you feel there is a peace. Then you discover conflict is absent. Nothing has changed. Your wife is still nagging you, your husband is still bothering you, your son is disobeying you, you have problems with your friends. But still, those things have not changed, but it is no more affecting you. You simply take them in your stride, and even that is giving you joy.
Little by little you find even the other is slowly changing and when that happens thought ...thought is the mischief maker because thought is measurement. It is all the time measuring things and because it is measuring things, the beauty is lost. Reality is lost. So, thought subsides and reality comes into focus.

QUESTION: What can you tell us now about the influence of the oneness blessing on a person? Is it up to the individual how much they actually will be able to maintain contact with the indwelling Divine? What is the best thing we can do to help our blessing receivers?
[Recording begins here. A few seconds are missing from the beginning of Bhagavan's answer.]
BHAGAVAN: .......called the left temporal lobe and tries to reduce the activity in what we call parietal lobes. So, it's a neurobiological phenomenon induced by the blessing. The result is you can get in touch with the indweller because of these changes and you can get in touch with what we call the Divine or the transpersonal, whatever word you'd like to use. So it takes you to the other dimension. That is the purpose of the blessing. The blessing is more like a vehicle which carries you to another realm. Thereafter you have to deal with the indweller or the transpersonal realm. The indweller himself or herself is only in the transpersonal realm.
So, to connect to the transpersonal realm the brain must undergo some changes. So, the deeksha induces a neurobiological phenomenon by which that happens. The power of the blessing depends on the one who is giving the blessing, as also the one who is receiving the blessing. Both are involved in it, and the later connections with the indweller would depend how much the one who had received the blessing is working upon himself.
Your role would be to help him work on himself. That's why you must work as groups. The group must help the other to work on himself or herself. If you keep working on yourself, then what happens is you get closer and closer to the indweller. It can become so close that the indweller can become almost physical. You can possibly even touch the indweller. It can even come out and you can even touch the indweller. You can go to that extent.
There are people who have this physical indweller, the indweller coming out and even chatting with them. It's not a rare phenomenon. It's quite well known in India, in many parts, and even some westerners I know. So it depends on how much you grow and depending on that growth would be your relationship with the indweller.
Let me see, what's the second part of that question? "How can it help the receiver?" Yes, how could you help the receiver is, you have to form groups and share your lives, share your suffering, you pain, your joys and the one who is speaking must be allowed to speak, and the other must not judgmentally listen to him; and the next level, he must report to the other person what is happening inside him. Suppose the other person is talking about his fear. Fear might get triggered in you. Then you have to tell him, "As I've been listening to you, fear got triggered in me." This is how I see things. There should be a mutual share so not only the one who is suffering benefits, the one who is listening will equally benefit. This is the way you have to form groups.
It's very essential that if we are going to make 2012 happen, we must form groups. It is these groups which are going to bring about the perceptual shift in the year 2012. Like, for example, what happening in 1989 set a chain of events in world history, like the Berlin wall, the paving away of communism and what we saw in China and many, many other events. We don't have time for those things. So, that set a new trend for the planet and we think it's still going on. We're moving in a new direction after '89.
Similarly, something is going to happen in 2012 which is going for a new direction for world events thereafter. To make those events happen, we have to form groups and we have to become powerful blessing givers and move into different states, higher states of consciousness. So, this is basically possible by working on yourself, not individually, individually as well as a group. That you must do for yourselves. I will personally here be guiding you. My guiding you is Level 3. So that's the answer to the first question. We move on to the second question.
QUESTION:Bhagavan,can you tell us about giving blessings for healing? Some of us feel that we have taken on the sufferings of others. Some blessing givers feel deep sadness while giving the blessing. How can we maintain our strength and health so that we can be actively of service to humanity? As we continue to merge with the Divine will our physical bodies get stronger naturally? Is it possible to take on the karma of others unintentionally?
BHAGAVAN: Read the question once again?
QUESTION:Bhagavan,can you tell us about giving blessings for healing? Some of us feel that we have taken on the sufferings of others. Some blessing givers feel deep sadness while giving the blessing.
BHAGAVAN: Hold there. So, as long as you feel it is the Divine which is healing, no karma will be transferred to you. But, if you feel someway that you are involved in the healing, then certainly karma comes to you. What you must know is you're merely a vehicle for those Divine energies to flow into you and affect the person. If you make the mistake of thinking that you are the one who is healing, that is your energies which are healing, then there is a possibility of a backlash and that karma might come to you. The other part of the question?
QUESTION:How can we maintain our strength and health so that we can be actively of service to humanity? As we continue to merge with the Divine will our physical bodies get stronger naturally? Is it possible to take on the karma of others unintentionally?
BHAGAVAN: A little bit before.
QUESTION:Some blessing givers feel deep sadness while giving the blessing.
BHAGAVAN: That is very good. If you feel that sadness and give the blessing it's going to be very it's going to be very therapeutic. It's very good and in fact, it's recommended. [Laughter]
QUESTION: How can we maintain our strength and health so that we can be actively of service to humanity?
See, as long as you feel it's the Divine which is doing it, that you are merely lending your body, mind and spirit, there's no problem at all. It has its own rewards. Because karmically, you help the person and your good karma bank account goes on increasing. So, you gain by helping others, you don't lose anything as long as you realize it's the Divine which is doing and not you. If you think you are doing, your karma account is going to-the good karma account will go wrong, the bad karma account would increase. But, as long as you think it's the Divine which is doing, your good karma account goes up, and you could even cash it for whatever purpose you want to. So, that's how you've got to do it.
It all depends upon identification. As long as you don't identify yourself, there is no problem. If you identify there is a problem. But sometimes, unintentionally things can go wrong. That's why as a precautionary measure, at the end of the day, you have got to wash your hands and feet in salt water. That is the best precaution you could take. Continue.
QUESTION: As we continue to merge with the Divine will our physical bodies get stronger naturally? Is it possible to take on the karma of others unintentionally?
BHAGAVAN: Yes, as you keep merging with the Divine your body becomes very strong. In fact, two weeks ago I met an Indian swami who had met me in 1984, and thereafter many things happened to him. So, nowadays he gets buried under the earth for about 92 days. Several tests have been done where he does not breathe, his heart beat is zero, and yet he is completely alive after 92 days. Now, this person who really happened to be an allopathic doctor, an ayurvedic doctor and many, many things, now he is over 70 year old. He looks as though he's 35, not a single black hair, no sagging of muscles and he is over 70. He is worshipped in many Indian temples if idols are kept and worshipped. This man is completely with the Divine and very soon he is going to enter into what's called Mahasamadhi, that is he will be buried alive under a concrete slab and a temple will be built on him. He says he feels he may be there for a century or so underground and blessing people.
There is also the Samadhi of this earlier guru, many, many years ago. Even now if you do like this [finger snapping] he'll answer from inside the Samadhi. So, those of you who come to India we could take you there and we could even show you this. So, these people who merge so much with the Divine, it looks like they can even physically go on forever. So, I myself could not guess this man's age and then I thought he must be thirty-five because there were his disciples who are looking very old and I thought maybe they had a young master. Later on I came to know he is that old.
So, it certainly affects your health and you do in fact become very strong, unless that guru has chosen to take on somebody's karma. Then, of course, like Ramana Maharishi you may get cancer. So, it depends how you choose to live. That's the first question I think.
QUESTION: All, that has played out recently has triggered judgment, disappointment, even bitterness at the way of the world. I'm aware that this judgment is coming from my own unresolved pain and this pain is holding me back from life and freedom and is hardening my heart.
I have sat with my pain and experienced it shift into joy. I have had beautiful spiritual experiences, but the pain of old conditioning keeps returning.
Bhagavan, what do you suggest I do to become more trusting and open to life as it is, and the unknown?
BHAGAVAN: See, you have to keep on practicing inner integrity until you're going deep inside yourself and see what is actually there. If you go deep inside, you will find there is nothing but fear, essentially fear. There is deceit, there is cunning, there is jealousy and all that muck. It's all there. You have to confront it, Confront it means not challenge it, but look at it, and then do not try to change it because it cannot be changed because these are contents of the mind, and the mind is very, very old. It's as old as man himself, and that is the structure of the mind, that cannot be changed. It is the nature of the mind. For example, you could take sugar, sugar is crystalline. It tastes sweet. Its specific heat is that much. Its specific variety is that much. You can't do anything about it. You take salt; it has its own qualities.
So, the human mind has evolved over millions of years into what it is today. But, the basic structure itself has not changed very much. Fear is there, it was there for ancient man, it is there today. Jealousy was there, it is there. Anger was there, it is there. Desire was there, it is there. But, the objects have changed. Probably earlier man had fear for the tiger, or the lion, or some wild beast, or the fear of hunger.
Today's man has fear of the share market and what's happening to the economy. Somebody would indeed feel jealously about somebody's spear. Now, you could feel jealousy about somebody's car. So, essentially the structure has not changed and it has also genetically been designed that way. So, fighting to change that would be foolhardy.
So, if there is a problem with you, like for example you live on a street where there is the mafia, or something like that. There is no way you could get out of that street and the mafia will not leave. So, what is the best way to handle the situation?
Could you tell what is the best way to handle the situation? The mafia will not go and you cannot leave that place. So, what do you do? The best way would be both to go to the mafia, to stand up to the mafia. Take guys a pack of sweets to him, some gifts to him, maybe embrace him and praise him. Then the mafia would say, "Ok, you do whatever you want. I won't trouble you." You are now a friend of the mafia.
Something similar must happen here as you cannot change all these things. Look, it is not you, it is there in you but you are not that. It will remain so, whether you are enlightened or not, it will remain so. The only difference is the enlightened man is not playing with it, he is not trying to change it, he not's feeling bad about it. It just remains. So, once you see it is there, it is there in everybody because it is the one mind.
Let us say someone is having a H1N1 problem. So, it's not your H1N1 or somebody's H1N1. It is H1N1, that's all. It is swine flu. It's not your swine flu or his swine flu. You can't have ownership over it. Similarly, you can't have ownership over your mind and its qualities. It is the human mind. Of course, if the brain undergoes some change, maybe things will change. Maybe the future man will be very different. But, as of now, that is operating, genetically programmed, that is how it will function.
So, there will be a negative side to you, which you are all the time masking because you can't exhibit it in public. There are terrible things going on inside because people don't know what would happen. So, there is this negative side, you've got to accept it and not say it is bad or good. It is there, that's all. You've got to take a neutral stand. If you say, ok, it's very good, or something's wrong with it; you could say it's very bad. That also is not alright. It is there. You cannot do anything about it. Because then you realize change is impossible. Now, when change is impossible what do you do? You just keep quiet and keeping quiet is the solution.
So, for this to happen, you must first probe; through probing how do you know what's inside there? So, bravely, go ahead. The blessing will help you to go inside, see a lot of things which you've never imagined before. This is what all the great ones have done. Be it a Buddha, or a Christ. They have done this. They have gone inside. They have seen what is there and they've said, let it be so. When you say, let it be so. You become free of it. It is there, but you're free of it.
This you should practice. You'll see tremendous changes happening to you, most of all conflict will slowly cease. As conflict ceases, slowly something will happen. You'll begin to feel connected and then when you begin to feel connected you'll find that thought subsides, and that which thought cannot touch will start expressing itself. Because that which will come in cannot be touched by thought because it's not a concept, it is not a belief, it is not a view. It is not even an experience the mind always experiences, no. It is something very living. What you call the present. It's very, very living. That would kick in. That would come in of its own and that is the benediction we are talking about.
To get there you have to move step by step: go inside, discover, accept, love. It's an automatic sequence. It does not require great time, energy and effort. Only the first phase takes time, energy and effort; and if you use the blessing is gets quite fast. Thereafter, no time is required, no energy is required, no effort is required. But suppose there is a snake in the hall where you are and then all of you are jumping in great fear. Then, suddenly somebody brings a torch and you discover it's not a snake, it's a rope. Fear has disappeared instantaneously. It has not taken time, it has not taken energy, it has not taken effort. You saw and you are free. To see is to be free.
It does not take any of these things. But, the whole trouble is getting a torchlight, and putting a torchlight, and seeing what is there. That is the effort that is required on your part. Once that is done, slowly you'll find something very remarkable happens. First you feel there is a peace. Then you discover conflict is absent. Nothing has changed. Your wife is still nagging you, your husband is still bothering you, your son is disobeying you, you have problems with your friends. But still, those things have not changed, but it is no more affecting you. You simply take them in your stride, and even that is giving you joy.
Little by little you find even the other is slowly changing and when that happens thought ...thought is the mischief maker because thought is measurement. It is all the time measuring things and because it is measuring things, the beauty is lost. Reality is lost. So, thought subsides and reality comes into focus. Along with reality comes something which I would now like to talk about.
You're going to discover it for yourself. I'll simply call it the benediction. It is there. So, it's like a sequence, naturally happens, and I hope that all of you can there, latest by 2012 when you could make a big impact on the planet, helping a lot of people.
Bhagavan 22 nov 2009 Austin, Texas
091125(Broadcast was done immediately following the U.S. national teleconference with Sri Bhagavan)
Q1. If we are not in Golden City spending time with you and Amma and instead are in our own cities, which are the most potent ways for us to receive transmissions from you and Amma, for example listening to Skype calls or teleconferences, giving blessings, connecting through the sri murthi, chanting the Moola Mantra, etc? Are the transmissions going through an acceleration process?
A1. Whether you are in the Golden City or in any other part of the planet, it does not matter at all. it’s exactly the same.
The phenomenon is accelerating now and it will be growing by leaps and bounds in the coming weeks and months and it will be the same all over the world. It does not make any difference whether you are in the Golden City or Texas. Absolutely no difference at all. It’s the same.
Q2. If people who receive blessings or our fellow facilitators are having difficulties with their process, what is the role we should play and how best to support them?
A2. There are two things you must do. The first thing is you listen to them without and condemnation or justification. Just you merely listen to them. That’s all. Then as you listen to them, you might feel that you might have to hold their hand or weep with them or pat them on the head. That’s the first part.
The second part is that as you listen to them, something will be happening to you. If there’s true listening, non-judgmental listening, something will happen to you. There could be a change in emotion, there could be a change in perception, there could be a fresh insight. So whatever happens to you, you must tell this to the other person. You must share this with the other person saying “As you have been speaking and I have been listening this is what has happened to me.” If you do that, something very strange will happen. The person will immediately come out of his or her problem. This can be practiced quite easily and then you can see it works wonders.
Q3. Is there any new or more current information you want to share with us about how we prepare for giving each blessing or intent we should be holding?
A3. I shall answer this question at our next meeting because it requires a detailed explanation. I’ll do it next time.
Q4. Can you say more about the 21 day practices. how much of the days to commit? Still live our external lives, but focusing as much as possible first on the physical awareness for 21 days and then on the internal awareness for the next 21 days?
A4. See your brain as an instrument, it takes about 21 days to unlearn what has become a habit. So, our lives have become very habitual that is why we lack awareness. As children we had a lot of awareness, but as we developed habits through conditioning and through training school and through society, we have lost the sense of awareness. So now we have to unlearn those habits for which you need a 21 day practice.
It exactly requires 21 days of uninterrupted practice for the brain to unlearn. So as you keep practicing awareness, physical awareness for half one hour or one hour a day. I believe it should be at least for 49 minutes or units of 7, 7 or it could be 30 minutes and another 15 minutes, but about 49 minutes is required a day for 21 days. And suddenly you’ll find the habits are no more holding you. Instead, you’re intensely aware of what is going on. So it’s ideal to start with the physical world, and physical sensations.
Once that is over, you could do the same thing for the inner world. Again it would require 49 minutes a day for 21 days. Then you will find that when ever awareness is required, it naturally comes to you, But then in 2012, it is likely to become 2 hours, 20 hours, or even 24 hours and it will be your natural state. In case you proceed with all these practices and do what I’ve been telling you to do in the year 2012.
But now, in the meanwhile it would be possible to be in awareness for at least a few hours of day if you do this practice. But you must do it without a break. If you break it, you must start from the beginning. That’s how it works. This is a very age old technique. It is nothing new which I am giving. This is very, very ancient technique which we have tried and practiced and which works very, very effectively.
Q5. How can we present the Oneness Blessing acknowledging the Divine to people who are wary of religious or New Age concepts?
A5. You’ve got to tell them it is their own higher self which is the fact. What we call the divine is not separate from ourself. It’s our own self, the higher self, with which we’ve lost touch. When you finally discover God, you would actually discover that you are God. That is the strangest thing. As you move on the path of oneness, first you discover inner oneness. Then you discover oneness with your family and friends. At the next level, you’ll discover oneness with the animal world. Next you’ll discover oneness with the plant world.
And next you move on to other realms with the physical world like matter. You will realize that you and matter are actually one. A piece of rock. You will discover actually that you are no different than the piece of rock, that you are one and the same. And as you move on, you of course, we move on to God. And let us say you are a Christian, you would come across Christ. Actually it could be consciousness or even the physical Christ. Then, of course Christianity forbids this, but otherwise you can actually realize that you are that Christ himself.
In Hinduism of course we have varieties. That is you will see your God as out there and you are separate and if you proceed further you become that God. Actually you become that God and then, as you proceed further, you go into the formless God also. That’s why we say in Hinduism you are God, but I think that is not permitted in Islam and in . . . (lost Skype connection for a minute)
So, the God we are talking about is nothing but your own higher self because you are actually God, but unfortunately you have this illusion that you are separate from God and that God is somebody you cannot reach out to. It’s actually yourself.
Now what happens as we progress on this path of awareness and the 2012 Deeksha giving, you will come very close to God. And if there are no obstacles in the form of cultural conditioning or religious conditioning, you’ll actually discover that you are that God. As far as we in Oneness are concerned, to us God has become this creation. All that you see in creation is God. He has become this. For example when I am looking at you talking to you, to me you are God. I am God.
The only difference is you are God with a particular problem and you are God that is suffering from the illusion that you are not God. And here I am God and I do not have that illusion. So this God wants to help that God who is suffering from that illusion. That’s all. Then you will discover that you and I are the same. That’s the illusion that I want to tear apart.
So you can tell them that it is their own higher self. I’ll go more into this later. That is the whole beauty of it. The ant that we see, is God has become an ant, that is why we have a term in India that means the beggar God. The beggar whom you see is God has become a beggar. The leper whom you see is God has become a leper. So God is everything. The evolved God, the not-evolved God, the cruel God, the loving God. It’s everything. So that’s why when I’m helping you out, I’m not helping you, I’m helping God. I’m helping myself. And you’ll discover the same thing. So It is one’s own higher self.
I hope from tomorrow morning, you’ve heard the audio by now (audio of US national teleconference precediing this call) you’ll start practicing with your brushing.
Skypekonferens med Sri Bhagavan 091119
091120Bhagavan, can you tell us a little bit about the current situation?
First of all, it’s the first time I’m doing this kind of a conference call, I’m just amazed at this technology, because I’ve never been exposed to this! The question is what is the current situation? The current situation is Krishna came and met me and they were saying that what they were doing was good for the movement, but I could not agree with that and my stand remains unchanged. So they feel that what they are doing is good for the movement. I could not see it like that. So my stand continues to be the same. That is the current situation.
Bhagavan, there are some people in the south of Sweden who are having a prep course for 50 – 60 people, the Oneness Experience course, in a few weeks. What do you think we should do about the fee, should it be for free or should they charge?
First thing is, when they do these courses, there must not be any videos. People could understand and digest the contents in the videos, make it their own based on their life experiences, and it should become their truth and from that they must talk. If it’s only a video, it is speech, it is not work. Work has a special power of transforming people and that must come from the person who’s talking there, that is the live person who is conducting the course, he must base it on his life experience, he must discover that and he must talk. So I would say that there should be no videos. That is the first thing.
The second thing is, with regards to the fees, I would say it is left to the discretion of the trainer. Suppose he goes to a poor locality, where people can not afford, he might have to do it free. Suppose he goes to a place where people can afford, he must fix such charges whereby it will meet all his expenses. And sometimes he can also charge more for his own survival. That depends on the person who’s conducting the course. I want the person to have the freedom. Not Oneness spiculating conditions. Oneness’s job is just to train people and let them go. They have to be on their own. They can organize themselves if they want to. What rules they want to form is their business. We as a body here should, we not interfere in these matters. Our only job is to keep training people and finally fade out from the scene, because we are a group of monks and monks should not prey on significance or power or anything for that matter. Monks should actually fade away after it’s work is done. Our work is only training the trainers, that’s all. It’s not that we should come there, we should conduct our courses. That way the local place will never really develop. Unless the local people do the courses themselves, they organize things for themselves without any outside interference, the dharma or the movement can not grow.
I have seen people from around the world who have taken oneness principles, adapted them, and do wonderful courses. I have been pointing out this and said, “to be in tune with oneness, the trainer must have complete freedom”. The trainer must not be restricted by a video or instructions from the headquarters. No. And regarding the fee structure, it’s only general guidance. Keep it free or charge enough so that you meet your expenses. And in case you’re a full-timer who’s dependent on that, then charge to the extent that you can survive. It should not be a means to become a wealthy person or this or that. It should be a means for survival. That is all.
And as the monks are concerned, they are not to go out and do courses. If they do, the local people will not grow, will not flourish. So their job is only to train and then quietly and anonymously leave the scene. This has been a tradition in India. There have been hundreds of great thinkers and spiritual giants who are the founders of Hinduism, but nobody knows their names, nobody knows where they lived. They just gave their teachings and then they became anonymous and faded away from the scene. That has been the tradition and Oneness also has the same principles: fade away from the scene. Otherwise it is going to become a cult, it will start controlling people in various ways and it will be creating more trouble to the world than good. As we see all these religions, what are they doing? They are causing more harm than good. And we’ll be adding one more to this whole list of cults and groups and religions. So I do not want that to happen. I want to see it dissolve in my lifetime, when I am healthy and strong, not when I become old. I want to have a set timetable for this and for me the timetable is 2014. In 2014 we should cease to exist. This is my stand. This has always been my stand. It is not a new stand. It has always been my stand. There used to be a big board in Satyaloka, in Jeevashram, at the entrance, which said, “This place exists to set man totally and unconditionally free”. That has been my life. I have been working for that. How could I move away from that? But of lately, I see things are moving in that direction, where “Oneness” is becoming like a structure. The “O” is a capital letter, I don’t know why it’s a capital letter, which means it’s an institution in itself. These are principles, it cannot be an institutition. And it can not be a controlling body. Oneness is a set of principles, like mathematics, chemistry and biology – that’s all. That can not be institutionalized. This is my stand.
Please continue.
According to the guides who have now stepped out of the order, so to speak, they will continue just like before. Please give us some clarification for that.
Let us say that you are running Bofors company. You are the boss of Bofors and you appoint a manager for Bofors in South America. Then after some time he makes some changes and he claims that he is the owner of Bofors. Would you agree to that?
No.
Same thing here. They have been sent out as monks, my monks, to do some particular work and come back. Now you are not a monk anymore. You do not represent me anymore. So what right have you to continue the work? You have left me. You are not in the order. This work is supposed to be done by monks. You are no more a monk. You’re a normal person and you have gone out there as my representative to do my courses. I have been training, these are my courses and now since you have left me, how can you continue with it? What right have you got; morally, ethically, legally? What are your rights? You have no rights whatsoever.
That is why I call this a coup. I hope you understand the word coup.
What was that Bhagavan? Coup?
See, for example, in Africa and Asian countries, some general will overthrow the ruler, the president or the prime minister or the elected person, and take over reigns into his own hands. Like in Pakistan, Musharraf took over the reigns from the democratically elected president, but he’s not in a break-away group. It’s a coup because they hold the properties, they hold all the money with them, they hold the website. I do not even have a website. It’s all under their control like you capture a radiostation. So I’m literally not able to communicate with the world, because you people happen to call up I’m able to communicate. So it is like a takeover, it’s like a coup, you have no right to stay on in Italy or in England, because you’ve moved away from me. You’ve cut the cord. You’re on your own. So how do you represent me? What is the right you have? You don’t have anything at all. But you continue to say you are Oneness. You say AmmaBhagavan’s blessings are there. You say you have AmmaBhagavan’s permission, there’s no permission. And you continue to do Oneness there. What right have you got? You’re taking the people for a ride. This is what is happening.
Thank you Bhagavan for this clarification.
Bhagavan, my name is Micke and I’m a part of the youth trainer team together with Elias from Germany, Daniel and Rochana from Italy and so on. What I want and what some other youth trainers want also, is to go through a much deeper process of awakening. We went through the 21-day process, the level 2 process and the trainer course, but we feel we want to attend a much more powerful process with you. I heard of a process where you are in a dark room for a long time with many deekshas and so on. Is that process being offered by you or is that the level 3?
See, level 3 is basically interacting with me. What I have been telling them is, “Instead of you people going out of India and doing these courses, come back to India. Let us focus on the trainers. Time is running out. Let us not go about doing an LIO course or this course or that course. Let us get the trainers here, let us work on them, let us develop them. They will go and take care of the world. It’s not our business to take care of the world. Our work is to train the trainers”. But they’re doing exactly the opposite.
Level 3 is people coming to India and interacting with me on a daily basis, in the temple or in the World Oneness Centre, and part of that would be the dark room process. That is Level 3. What they were saying was, “If you’re going to ask them to come to India, you are making it into a cult”. My argument was, “If I saw you must come to India! You must meet me! Then it’s a cult. All I’m saying is, you’re welcome to come to India and you’re welcome to talk to me. If that is the case how does it become a cult?”
At this level, only I’ll be able to talk. It’s beyond them. They’ve not been given the training. They do not have that knowledge. It’s I that has to interact with the trainers and develop them further. Why is it they don’t like the idea of people coming here? Why is it they should be stopped there itself? This has been puzzling. And I’ve said 2012 is coming now. We’re only few people in number. Let us gather together. We have to start meditating here in the temple and that has to be skyped all over the world. We must gather and meditate. That’s why we have built the whole temple itself or what we call the World Oneness Centre. They are not for all these things. Time is running out, we have to improve. The time is very, very fast. We have to put more power into them, more teachings into them. They have to realize these teachings and talk from there. It’ll have a tremendous effect.
But instead of that they want to start big, big LIO’s all over the world and they say soon it will be 5000 people, then 10 000 people, then 30 000 people. Do we need all those people? Why these big numbers? We’ll only become a better known cult in that case, we’ll become a dominating force, we’ll be controlling people. That’s not what we want. We don’t want that many people, we don’t want that much amount, where do we put all those things? We just have to work on our trainers. Pick up the good ones. They say “Oh, they’re not up to the mark”. Why not? If they’re not up the mark, let’s work on them, let’s improve them. There are wonderful trainers also. We can update the knowledge. If so many of them go and do courses it will not become a cult. And I said, give them complete freedom. They can add and subtract anything from oneness. Oneness is not the only format.
Oneness is like sugar, you can add it to coffee, tea, in chocolate, whatever you want. That is how we have to prevent this from becoming a cult. We as an organisation should slowly dissolve ourselves. What they are doing is, they’re destroying oneness. They’re doing something which is not oneness. If you’re going to control the trainer, it is not oneness. If you give a video and control him, that is not oneness. If you’re going to tell how much money to collect, that much should go to the local body, that to this body, that to headquarters - that is not oneness. If the Oneness Trainer does not come from his own insights, that is not oneness. If the Trainer does not have the freedom to add and subtract, that is not oneness. Whereas the monk, he has to stick to something. When they do the courses, they have got to stick to it, because that is what we are giving. We can’t do it in a hundred different ways. That will confuse people. But let people make use of it in a hundred different ways. That is what we are telling.
And another thing is, I told them, “Please come back to India”. What is the problem with coming back to India? This problem is only with those dasas who left India. Not the dasas in India. The only problem with the Indian dasas have been those who have been conducting elite courses. Who stay in elite homes, move with the elite. They are the ones who have gone out. Because I said, “Make those courses free in India”, I said “India is a poor country. There are millions who can never afford these courses in their lives”. And when I said this they were most unhappy about it. Now, we are monks, why do you want all that money? Money we might need for some reasons, that’s all. But then we ought to focus on the poor people. Why is it being such an anathema that you don’t want to mix with the poor? Are we some snobbish people? We’re only monks, that’s all.
So whatever I have been proposing, they don’t seem to be liking it. Once they have gone west, they don’t want to come back to India. And I’ve considered all that and said “OK, alright, be there until 2010 or the beginning of 2011, then you’ve got to come back. Because there is one year after that, we have to work very, very hard”. We have told the whole world, 2012 something is going to happen. We said in the temple we’ll meditate, we’ll pass on energies. But you’re not willing to come back here, not willing to send people here. What is going on? Why should you stay back in the west? If you’re going to stay back in the west, then why the trainers then?” The trainers are the ones doing all the hard work, they’re going out, meeting people, convincing them. They should be given more power. It is their job, not ours. What is the idea of camping in the west, wanting to stay on in Italy or wanting to stay on in Fiji, wanting to be out there and conducting these LIO’s and all this kind of stuff? Is that our work? Our work is spiritual work. Keep them probably in the dark room, make them meditate, meditate along with them, keep them in the temple, give them the insights; that is Level 3, that is the next preparation.
When I said 2014 we must be out of the scene, we must become anonymous slowly. Now if you’re going to do huge LIO programmes, how do you become anonymous? It means we are building ourselves up. I want the reverse thing to happen. The building up is only of the individual, not Oneness as a movement or an organisation. All those hundreds of trainers, they have to be built up.
*Unclear name* is there, for example, he is a follower of Rajneesh. And in his courses he combines oneness so beautifully and it’s so very effective. I’ve seen many other people. *Unclear name* for example, they mix up oneness in their courses, it’s so wonderful it is. That’s how it has to go. Why should they only stick for oneness? There is no need for that.
These have been my arguments and they don’t like it. For whatever reason, I do not know and I don’t understand why they want to stay back in the west. And I don’t understand why these LIO’s. That is not our kind of stuff. We are spiritual people. Oneness is simply a simple equation. Oneness is equal to psychology plus spirituality. If you remove spirituality, it is mere psychology. That is not oneness. Oneness is all about bringing the Divine into human consciousness. Harnessing Divine energies for sorting out your problems; be there financial, health, relationship or whatever you want to achieve. And now I find, the spiritual dimension is slowly being faded out. I can see it happening in Dubai, I can see it happening in Korea. In different countries they are doing it differently, but they’re phasing out the spirituality. My whole work has been to bring the Divine back into human consciousness. Because for the last few centuries we have been losing that touch with the Divine; be it a Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim or a Buddhist. I said let us bring Divinity back into their lives, for a Christian in a Christian way, for a Muslim in a Muslim way, for a Buddhist in a Buddhist way. Let them get back in touch with their own faith, their own divine nature, whatever the divine is called in that particular faith.
That is like harnessing solar energy for other purposes, like harnessing wind power, let them harness Divine energies. But why is it Divine energy is fading away? Slowly they are saying it’s something secular. Am I not secular? I have met people from all creeds in the world, they’ve been so happy to talk to me. There’s no problem at all.
If Dalai Lama continues to be a monk, he continues to be aTibetan Buddhist, but nobody would call him a cult figure. People respect and love him. So the whole fact is, they are saying, “we must remove the spiritual dimension” and without my knowledge, without telling me, it is being phased out. Then what is this work all about? If it’s only a psychological course, there are far better courses than this. The beauty about this course is, it harnesses Divine energies. It is psychology plus spirituality. But I see slowly, very subtly, very carefully, very gently, they are doing it. In some countries, they are going with great force. In some countries, they’re very careful. Where there are alot of trainers and others, they’re more careful. Where there are no trainers, they’re very, very fast, they’re racing through.
So this is against the very nature of oneness. We hope that by 2012, man and God or whatever form, he can call it the universe or some energy, whatever he wants, he should get in touch with the transpersonal, that which is beyond the person, which we call the transpersonal. He must get in touch with it. So the whole thing is being destroyed and I call this “destruction of oneness”. What I want is “dissolution of oneness”. That’s exactly where the difference lies.
Thank you so much for the beautiful clarifications. Alot of people talk about enlightenment, Bhagavan, and they are wondering what is this state, and are the dasas enlightened. Could you say something about this?
Yes. See, first of all we must make a distinction between the enlightened state and enlightenment itself. The enlightened state almost all dasas have had. That is, the state comes and the state goes. What we call the kundalini, when it is up, as long as it is up, you are in an enlightened state. When it comes down, you lose that state. And it can not always be up. It depends upon so many factors. For example, if the kundalini is up in the morning, let’s say 6 o’ clock, very, very high, and when you see a dog, you might feel that you are the dog. You might hug the dog, kiss the dog, you might do all those things, because that is so real for you, because you see that you are the dog, you and the dog are not separate because the kundalini is inside. Towards the evening when the kundalini goes down, suppose by some chance it goes down, you might very well kick the same dog. So, in the morning your behavior could have been loving and kissing the dog, now it could be kicking the dog. So, this is the enlightened state.
Now, by enlightenment, we do not mean something that comes and goes. That is permanent. That is you have become a transformed being, a better human being. You are very naturally kind, you are very naturally compassionate, naturally there’s no conflict in you, there’s peace in you, there’s reduced thought noise, there’s not much thought chatter in the head, so you feel very calm, you feel very peaceful, you seem to feel connected to people – not that you feel you are that person, that is when the kundalini rises. When the kundalini is not up, but you are enlightened, you are clearly a better human being, who has peace in the heart, who has no conflict, who has inner integrity. I can of course go on, we actually have about 108 qualities. For each one of them, if you have, you can be declared enlightened. For example, if you can experience reality as it is – you’re enlightened. If you clearly realize that there’s no thinker but only thought, then also you are enlightened. Now for example, Ramana is enlightened, Buddha is enlightened, Sri Aurobindo is enlightened, Ramakrishna in India is enlightened – I’m just giving a few names. But all these things are very different kinds of enlightenments. The two can not be called to be the same.
What we are talking is, we are listing out these qualities, and we are telling, “Let us acquire as many of these as possible, so that you know in turn would be able to affect the world, you in turn would be able to transform the world”. For example, 2012, all that we are saying about 2012 is, in 1989 the new age was concieved, when the energies shifted. That was when this phenomenom began. And not just this phenomenom, many phenomenom were born in the world at that time. I have personally met these people and I know what happened to them, like what happened to me.
And as all of you know, that was the year when the Berlin wall collapsed and communism came down, the Tiananmen Square in China and so many other things happened . There was a definite change of energies in the year 1989.
What we are saying is, in 2012, that child which was concieved is going to be delivered. It’s going to be another big shift in energies. When energy shifts happen, people’s perception very easily changes. So that is when, whoever wants to bring about a change have the best chance, especially after 2012. Suppose you are an environmentalist, you can bring about environmental changes. Suppose you are in education, you can bring about changes in education. Those who work in the fields of health or medicine, can bring about changes there.
Suppose you are a spiritual person, you could bring about changes in the spiritual sphere. And in the spiritual sphere, there are many, many people working now. But whatever field you work, whoever is working, there must be 64 000 people who’s perception has been changed, only then there will be a global impact. It will be impossible to talk to everybody and do everything. You have to build up. Whoever wants to do this work, anybody on this earth, whether he wants to do with heath or with the environment, 64 000 are very crucial, that is a number which affects human consciousness.
All that we are saying is, let us get 64 000 people, work on them, either through Skype or the center here, let us elevate their levels of consciousness, with that the work is done. You don’t need an organization, you don’t need an LIO and go around the world and be talking all those things. This part of 64 000, many countries have fulfilled their quota.
We are in fact racing into that. The trainers are doing an excellent job. If we do that, then we could influence people’s perception in the year 2012. But that is not the end of the story. Thereafter it continues on its own. We don’t have to do anything. We are not the ones who are going to change the energies, thats a natural phenomenom. All that we are going to do is, we are going to make use of that, to help people get closer together, to feel connected, to feel more calm, more peaceful, which is what we call enlightenment.
So anybody can make use of it. Like if we have electricity, we can all speak on the phone now, we can see a video film, we can run an electric motor, we can light up a bulb. So the energies are there available, in 2012 it’s available. If we are ready for that, we can do a grand work. If we fail in 2012, OK, it may be in 2013 or 2014, but why go on postponing? This is not an unachieveable target. That is all I’m saying.
That way, there are dasas who are enlightened, who are transformed people, who do not get hurt, who do not react, who are very calm and peaceful and no conflict inside them. There are enlightened people, not only among dasas, even among ordinary people. The only problem with them is, they do not make noise. They’re virtually living anonymously, there’s no craving in them. They’re living very quiet lives. They can give an insight here to somebody and insight there to somebody, helping somebody because a truly enlightened man will not make noise. He will not propagate himself. He will not try to acquire significance. Nothing will be there. Unfortunately, these people are very quiet, silent people. And the ones who make lot of noise, are mistaken to be the ones who are very capable of. So there are enlightened dasas and there are also enlightened people. But they may or may not be in an enlightened state, sometimes they get the state, sometimes they do not have a state, but enlightenment remains. They are awakened people.
Skypekonferens med Sri Bhagavan på svenska 091119
091120Bhagavans Skypesamtal med Sverige 19 nov 2009
Bhagavan, kan du berätta lite om den rådande situationen?
För det första, det är första gången jag gör en sån här konferens (Skype-konferens). Jag är bara så förbluffad över denna teknologi, för jag har aldrig upplevt den!
Frågan är, vad är den rådande situationen? Den rådande situationen är att Krishna kom och träffade mig och sa att det de tänker göra är bra för rörelsen, men jag kunde inte hålla med om det och min ståndpunkt är oförändrad. De känner att det de gör är bra för rörelsen. Jag ser det inte så. Så min ståndpunkt är densamma. Det är den rådande situationen.
Bhagavan, några personer i södra Sverige ska ha en Oneness Experience-kurs om några veckor för 50-60 personer. Vad ska vi göra med avgifterna, ska det vara gratis eller ska den kosta?
Det första när det gäller dessa kurser är att det inte ska finnas några videor. Människor kan förstå och smälta innehållet i dessa videor, göra det till sitt eget baserat på deras egna livserfarenheter, göra det till sin sanning som de sedan talar utifrån. Om det är en video, så är det mer att tala till, det är inte att tala med. Talande har en särskild kraft att transformera människor och de måste komma från personen som talar, dvs den person som håller i kursen, han måste basera det på sina livserfarenheter, han måste upptäcka det och han måste tala. Så jag skulle säga att där inte borde vara videos. Det är det första.
Det andra, angående avgifterna, skulle jag säga är upp till trainern. Antag att han går till ett fattigt område, där människor inte har råd, då måste han kasnke göra det gratis. Antag att han går till ett ställe där folk kan betala, då får han sätta sådana priser att det täcker utgifterna. Och någon gång kan han också ta ut mer för sin egen överlevnads skull. Det beror på den som håller i kursen. Jag vill att personen har sin frihet, inte att oneness ska sätta villkoren. Oneness-rörelsens roll är bara att lära upp människor och låta dem gå. De måste vara sina egna. De kan organisera sig om de vill. Vilka regler de vill ha är deras ensak. Vi här bör inte lägga oss i dessa saker. Vårt enda jobb är att fortsätta träna människor och slutligen tyst försvinna ut från scenen, för vi är en grupp munkar, och munkar bör inte sträva efter betydelse eller makt eller något annat heller för den delen. Munkar borde faktiskt tona bort när jobbet är gjort. Vårt arbete är bara att lära upp lärarna, det är allt. Det är inte att vi ska åka dit och hålla våra kurser. För i så fall kommer aldrig den lokala platsen att utvecklas. Om inte människorna på plats håller i kurserna själva, organiserar saker för sig själva utan inblandning utifrån, så kan dharmat eller rörelsen inte växa.
Jag har sett människor från hela världen som har tagit onenessprinciperna, anpassat dem och hållit underbara kurser. Jag har pekat ut detta och sagt “för att vara i synk med oneness måste trainern ha total frihet”. Trainern får inte begränsas av en video eller instruktioner från högkvarteret. Nej. Och angående avgifterna, så är det generella riktlinjer. Låt det vara gratis, eller ta så mycker att dina kostnader täcks. Och jobbar du heltid med detta och är beroende av intäkter så ta så mycket att du kan överleva. Det ska inte vara ett sätt att bli rik eller så. Det ska vara så att man överlever, det är allt.
Och när det gäller munkarna så ska de inte åka och hålla kurser. Om de gör det kommer människorna på plats inte att växa, inte att blomma. Så deras jobb är bara att lära ut och sedan tyst och omärkligt lämna scenen. Detta är tradition i Indien. Det har funnits hundratals stora tänkare och andliga giganter som grundlade hinduismen, men ingen vet deras namn, ingen vet var de bodde. De bara gav sina lärdomar och blev sedan anonyma och försvann ut från scenen. Så är traditionen och oneness har samma principer: att omärkligt försvinna från scenen. Annars kommer det att bli en kult, den kommer att börja kontrollera människor på olika sätt och skapa mer bekymmer i världen än glädje. När vi ser på alla dessa religioner, vad gör de? De gör mer skada än nytta. Och vi kommer att lägga ytterligare en till på listan över kulter och grupper och religioner. Jag vill inte att det ska hända. Jag vill se den lösas upp under min livstid, medan jag är frisk och stark, inte när jag är gammal. Jag vill ha en bestämd tidtabell för detta och för mig är tidtabellen 2014. Under 2014 ska vi upphöra att existera. Så ser jag det. Så har jag alltid sett det. Vi brukade ha en stor anslagstavla i Satyaloka, i Jeevashram, vid ingången, där det stod: “Denna plats existerar för att göra människan totalt och ovillkorligt fri”. Det har varit mitt liv. Jag har arbetat för det. Hur skulle jag kunna gå ifrån det? Men på sistone har jag sett att saker gått i riktning mot att oneness blir en struktur. O’et skrivs med stor bokstav. Jag vet inte varför det skrivs med stor bokstav, vilket betyder att det är en institution i sig självt. Detta är principer, det kan aldrig bli en institution. Och det kan inte finnas ett kontrollerande organ. Oneness är en uppsättning principer, som matematik, kemi och biologi – det är allt. Det kan inte bli institutionaliserat, det anser jag.
Var snälla och fortsätt.
Enligt guiderna som nu har lämnat rörelsen, så att säga, så kommer de att fortsätta precis som förut. Var snäll och förtydliga lite kring det.
Låt oss säga att du leder Bofors. Du är Bofors högste chef och du anställer en person som chef för Bofors i Sydamerika. Så efter en tid gör han några förändringar och säger att han äger Bofors. Skulle du gå med på det?
Nej.
Samma sak här. De har skickats ut som munkar, mina munkar, för att göra ett särskilt jobb och sedan komma tillbaka. Nu är du inte munk längre. Du representerar inte mig längre. Så med vilken rätt kan du fortsätta med arbetet? Du har lämnat mig. Du är inte i rörelsen. Detta jobb ska göras av munkar. Du är inte längre en munk. Du är en vanlig person och du har gått ut som min representant för att göra mina kurser. Jag har lärt ut, det är mina kurser och nu när du har lämnat mig, hur kan du fortsätta med det? Med vilken rätt, moraliskt? etiskt? juridiskt? Vilka är dina rättigheter? Du har inga rättigheter överhuvudtaget.
Det är därför jag kallar detta en kupp. Jag hoppas du förstår ordet kupp.
Vad är det Bhagavan, en kupp?
Tag, till exempel, Afrika och asiatiska länder där någon general vill störta presidenten eller premiärministern eller den valda personen och ta makten i egna händer. Som i Pakistan, Musharraf tog makten från den demokratiskt valde presidenten, men han är inte i en utbrytargrupp. Det är en kupp eftersom de har fastigheterna, de har alla pengarna, de har webbsidan, jag har inte ens en webbsida. Allt är under deras kontroll som om du kapar en radiostation. Så jag kan bokstavligen inte tala med världen. Eftersom ni råkar ringa upp så har jag möjlighet att kommunicera. Så det är som ett övertag, det är som en kupp. Du har ingen rätt att stanna i Italien eller i England, för du har gått ifrån mig. Du har klippt bandet. Du är för dig själv. Så hur kan du representera mig? Vilken rätt har du? Du har ingenting alls. Men du fortsätter att säga att du är oneness. Du säger att du har Amma och Bhagavans välsignelse. Du säger att du har Amma och Bhagavans tillåtelse, det finns ingen tillåtelse. Och du fortsätter göra oneness där. Med vilken rätt? Du lurar folk, det är vad som händer.
Tack Bhagavan för detta klargörande.
Bhagavan, mitt namn är Micke och jag är en del av ungdomstrainer-teamet tillsammans med Elias från Tyskland, Daniel och Rochana från Italien m fl. Vad jag vill, och också några andra ungdomstrainers vill, är att gå igenom en mycket djupare process av upplysning. Vi gick igenom 21-dagarsprocessen och Level 2-processen och trainerskursen, men vi känner att vi vill gå en mycket mer kraftfull process hos dig. Jag har hört talas om en process där man är i ett mörkt rum under en lång tid, med många dikshas etc. Finns den eller är det Level 3?
Ja, Level 3 är i huvudsak att interagera med mig. Vad jag har sagt till dem är “Istället för att ni lämnar Indien och håller kurser, så kom tillbaka till Indien. Låt oss fokusera på våra trainers. Tiden håller på att rinna ut. Låt oss inte hålla på med Living in Oneness-kurser, eller den kursen, eller den. Låt oss ta hit alla trainers, låt oss arbeta på dem, låt oss utveckla dem. De kommer att ta hand om världen. Det är inte vår sak att ta hand om världen. Vårt jobb är att lära upp lärarna.” Men de gör exakt tvärt om.
Level 3 är människor som kommer till Indien och interagerar med mig på en daglig basis, i templet eller i World Oneness Centre, och en del av det är mörker rum-processen. Det är Level 3. Vad de sa var: “Om du ber dem komma till Indien gör du det till en kult”. Mitt argument var “Om jag sa att du måste komma till Indien! Du måste träffa mig! Då är det en kult. Allt jag säger är, du är välkommen till Indien och du är välkommen att tala med mig. Om så är fallet, hur kan det då bli en kult?”
På denna nivå är det bara jag som talar. Det är bortanför dem. De har inte fått träningen. De har inte den kunskapen. Det är jag som måste interagera med trainers och utveckla dem vidare. Varför gillar de inte idén att människor kommer hit? Varför ska de stoppas? Det är en gåta. Och jag har sagt att 2012 kommer nu. Vi är bara få personer. Låt oss samlas. Vi måste börja meditera här i templet och det måste ut över hela världen. Vi måste samlas och meditera. Det är därför vi har byggt hela templet eller det vi kallar World Oneness Centre. De är inte för dessa saker. Tiden rinner ut, vi måste bli bättre, tiden går väldigt, väldigt fort. Vi måste ge dem mer kraft, lära dem mer. De måste få dessa insikter och tala utifrån det. Det kommer att ha en enorm effekt.
Men istället vill de starta stora, stora LIO-kurser över hela världen och säger att det snart är 5000 personer, sen 10 000 personer och sedan 30 000 personer. Behöver vi alla dessa människor? Varför detta stora antal? Vi kommer bara att bli en mer känd kult i så fall, en dominerande kraft, vi kommer att kontrollera människor. Det är inte vad vi vill. Vi vill inte ha så många människor, vi vill inte ha så många, var ska vi förlägga alla dessa? Vi behöver bara lära upp våra trainers. Fånga upp dem som är bra. De säger “Åh, de är inte där än”. Varför inte? Om de inte är där än, så får vi jobba på dem, låt oss förbättra dem. Det finns fantastiska trainers också. Vi kan uppdatera kunskapen. Om så många av dem går ut och håller kurser så blir det inte en kult. Och jag sa, ge dem total frihet. De kan lägga till eller ta bort vad som helst från oneness, det finns inte bara ett format.
Oneness är som socker, du kan blanda det med kaffe, te, choklad, vad du vill. Det är så vi måste förhindra det från att bli en kult. Vi som organisation borde sakta lösas upp. Vad de gör är att förstöra oneness. De gör något som inte är oneness. Om du kommer att kontrollera trainers så är det inte oneness. Om du ger en video och kontrollerar honom är det inte oneness. Om du ska tala om hur mycket pengar han ska ta, och hur mycket som ska gå till det lokala organet, hur mycket till det organet, hur mycket till huvudkvarteret – det är inte oneness.
Om oneness trainern inte agerar utifrån sina egna insikter, så är det inte oneness. Om trainern inte har friheten att lägga till och dra ifrån, så är det inte oneness. Medan munken, han måste hålla sig till något. När de ger kurser måste de hålla sig till det, eftersom det är vad vi ger. Vi kan inte göra det på hundra olika sätt, det blir förvirrande. Men låt människorna använda det på hundra olika sätt, det är vad vi säger.
Och en annan sak, jag har sagt åt dem “Var snälla och kom tillbaks till Indien”. Vad är problemet med att komma tillbaka till Indien? Detta problem finns bara med de dasas som lämnat Indien, inte de dasas som är i Indien. De enda problemen med dasas i Indien är de som hållit i elitkurser, som bott i elitens hem, som har rört sig med eliten. Det är de som har gått. För att jag sagt: “Håll dessa kurser gratis i Indien”. Jag sa “Indien är ett fattigt land. Det finns miljoner som aldrig någonsin i livet kommer att ha råd med kurserna”. Och när jag sa detta blev de mycket olyckliga. Men, vi är munkar, varför vill du ha alla de pengarna? Pengar kan vi behöva till något, det är allt. Men sen borde vi fokusera på de fattiga. Varför är det så att du inte vill beblanda dig med de fattiga? Är vi snobbar? Vi är bara munkar, det är allt.
Så vad jag än har föreslagit så verkar de inte gilla det. När de gett sig av västerut så vill de inte komma tillbaka till Indien. Och jag har begrundat allt det där och sagt “OK, var där till 2010 eller början av 2011, sen måste ni komma tillbaka. För det är ett år efter det som vi måste jobba mycket, mycket hårt”. Vi har sagt till hela världen att något kommer att hända 2012. Vi sa att vi skulle meditera i templet, vi ska skicka ut energier, men ni är inte villiga att komma tillbaka hit, inte villiga att skicka hit människor. Vad är det som händer? Varför ska ni stanna i väst? Om ni ska stanna i väst, varför har vi då trainers? Det är trainers som gör allt hårt arbete, de som går ut och möter människor, övertygar dem, De bör få mer kraft. Det är deras jobb, inte vårt. Vad är idén med att campa i väst, vilja stanna i Italien eller stanna på Fiji, vilja vara där ute och hålla i dessa LIO-kurser och allt möjligt sånt? Är det vad vi ska göra? Vårt arbete är andligt. Vara i ett mörkt rum, få dem att meditera, meditera med dem, vara i templet, ge dem insikter, det är Level 3, det är nästa förberedelse.
Jag sa att vi måste vara ute ur bilden 2014, vi måste sakta bli allt mer anonyma. Men, om du gör gigantiska LIO-program, hur kan du då vara anonym? Det betyder att vi bygger upp oss själva. Jag vill att motsatsen ska hända. Uppbyggandet är bara av individen, inte av oneness som en rörelse eller en organisation. Alla dessa hundratals trainers, det är de som måste byggas upp.
Tag XX, till exempel, han följer Rajneesh. Och i hans kurser kombinerar han oneness så vackert och det är mycket effektivt. Jag har sett så många andra människor XX till exempel, de mixar oneness i sina kurser, det är helt fantastiskt. Det är så det måste bli. Varför skulle de bara hålla sig till oneness? Det behövs inte. Detta är mina argument, och de gillar dem inte. Varför? Det vet jag inte och jag kan inte förstå varför de vill stanna i väst. Och jag förstår inte dessa LIOs. Det är inte vår grej. Vi är andliga människor. Oneness är helt enkelt bara en enkel ekvation. Oneness är lika med psykologi plus andlighet. Om du tar bort andligheten så återstår bara psykologi, det är inte oneness. Oneness handlar om att få in det gudomliga i det mänskliga medvetandet, att använda gudomliga energier för att få rätsida på dina problem; vare sig det är ekonomiska, hälsomässiga, relationer eller vad du vill uppnå. Och nu upptäcker jag att den andliga dimensionen sakta håller på att suddas ut. Jag ser det hända i Dubai, jag ser det i Korea. Det sker på olika sätt i olika länder men de håller på att fasa ut andligheten. Hela mitt arbete har gått ut på att föra tillbaka det gudomliga i det mänskliga medvetandet. Eftersom man de senaste århundradena förlorat kontakten med det gudomliga, vare sig man är kristen, hindu, muslim eller buddist. Jag sa: låt oss föra tillbaka det gudomliga in i deras liv, för en kristen på ett kristet sätt, för en muslim på muslimskt vis, för en buddhist på buddhistiskt vis. Låt dem på nytt få kontakt med sin egen tro, sin egen gudomliga natur, vad än det gudomliga kallas i deras tro.
Det är som att använda solenergi för andra ändamål, som att använda vindkraft, låt dem använda de gudomliga energierna. Men varför försvinner den gudomliga energin? Sakta börjar de säga att det är något världsligt. Är inte jag världslig? Jag har mött människor från alla trosbekännelser, de har varit så glada över att prata med mig. Där är inga problem alls.
Om Dalai Lama fortsätter vara munk så fortsätter han vara en tibetansk buddist, men ingen skulle kalla honom en sektledare. Människor älskar och respekterar honom. Så faktum är att när de säger att “vi måste ta bort den andliga dimensionen” och utan min vetskap, utan att tala om det, börjar ta bort den. Vad handlar då allt det här arbetet om? Om det bara är en psykologisk kurs så finns det kurser som är mycket bättre. Det vackra med den här kursen är att den använder gudomlig energi. Det är psykologi plus andlighet. Men jag ser hur de långsamt, mycket subtilt, mycket försiktigt, mycket varsamt, gör det. I vissa länder går de fram med stor kraft. I andra är de mycket försiktiga. Där det finns många trainers och andra är de mer försiktiga. Där det inte finns trainers är de mycket, mycket snabba, de rusar fram.
Så detta går emot själva oneness-naturen. Vi hoppas att när vi når 2012 så ska människan och gud, eller vilken form, han kan kalla det universum eller någon energi, vad han vill, komma i kontakt med det transcendentala, det som finns bortom personen, som vi kallar det transcendentala. Han måste komma i kontakt med det. Så allt detta håller på att förstöras, och jag kallar det “förstörelsen av oneness”. Vad jag vill är “upplösningen av oneness”. Det är exakt där som skillnaden ligger.
Tack så mycket för de vackra förklaringarna. Många människor talar om upplysning, Bhagavan, och de undrar vad det är för tillstånd och om dasas är upplysta. Kan du säga något om detta?
Ja, för det första måste vi göra åtskillnad på det upplysta tillståndet och själva upplysningen. Nästan alla dasas är i ett upplyst tillstånd. Det vill säga, tillståndet kommer och tillståndet går. Det vi kallar kundalini, när det är uppe, så länge det är uppe så är du i ett upplyst tillstånd. När det går ner så förlorar du tillståndet. Och det kan inte alltid vara uppe. Det beror på många saker. Till exempel, om kundalinin är uppe på morgonen, säg kl 6, mycket, mycket högt och om du ser en hund så kan du känna att du är hunden. Du kan krama hunden, kyssa den, göra allt det här för det är så verkligt för dig. Du och hunden är inte åtskilda på grund av kundalinin i dig. Mot kvällen när kundalini går ner, anta att den av någon anledning går ner, kan du mycket väl sparka mot samma hund. Så på morgonen kan ditt beteende vara kärleksfullt och du kysser hunden, nu kan det vara att sparka hunden. Detta är det upplysta tillståndet.
Men, med upplysning menar vi inte något som kommer och går. Det är permanent. Det är att du har blivit en transformerad varelse, en bättre människa. Du är helt naturligt vänlig, du är naturligt medkännande, där är ingen konflikt i dig, det är frid i dig, där är minskat tankebrus, där är inte mycket tankar i huvudet, du känner dig väldigt lugn, du känner dig väldigt fredlig, du verkar känna dig förenad med människor – inte så att du känner att du är den personen, det är när kundalinin reser sig. När kundalinin inte är uppe, men du är upplyst, är du helt klart en bättre människa, som har frid i hjärtat, som inte är i konflikt, som har inre integritet. Jag kan förstås fortsätta, vi har faktiskt 108 kvaliteter. För var och en av dem, om du har dem, kan du kalla dig upplyst. Till exempel, om du kan uppleva verkligheten som den är – så är du upplyst. Om du klart kan inse att det inte finns någon som tänker, bara tankar, så är du också upplyst. Till exempel, Ramana är upplyst, Buddha är upplyst, Sri Aurobindo är upplyst, Ramakrishna i Indien är upplyst – jag ger bara några namn. Men alla är upplysta på olika sätt. Det finns inte två likadana.
Vad vi säger är att vi listar dessa kvaliteter och säger: “Låt oss skaffa så många av dessa som möjligt, så att du kan påverka världen, att du i din tur kan transformera världen”. Till exempel 2012, allt vi säger om 2012 är att, år 1989 när energierna skiftade så skapades den nya tidsåldern. Det var då fenomenet började. Och inte bara detta fenomen, många fenomen föddes i världen vid denna tid. Jag har personligen mött dessa människor och jag vet vad som hänt dem, är detsamma som hände mig.
Och som ni alla vet, så var det också året som Berlinmuren kollapsade och kommunismen föll, Himmelska fridens torg i Kina och så många andra saker hände. Det var ett definitivt skifte i energierna 1989.
Vad vi säger är att år 2012 så kommer det barn som skapades då att födas. Det kommer att bli ännu ett stort skifte i energierna. När energiskiften händer så ändrar sig människors uppfattning väldigt lätt. Så det är då den som vill göra en förändring har störst chans. Särskilt efter 2012. Antag att du är en miljöförkämpe, då kan du skapa förändringar i miljön. Är du inom utbildning så kan du skapa förändringar inom utbildning. De som jobbar inom hälsa och medicin kan göra förändringar där.
Antag att du är en andlig person, då kan du skapa förändringar inom den andliga sfären. Och i den andliga sfären är det många, många som jobbar nu. Men vilket område du än väljer, vem som än arbetar, så måste det finnas 64 000 personer vars perception har ändrats, bara då kan det påverka globalt. Det blir omöjligt att tala med alla och göra allt. Du måste bygga upp det. Vem som än vill göra det här arbetet, vem som helst på jorden, om han så vill göra det inom hälsa eller med miljön, 64 000 är av avgörande betydelse, det är den siffran som påverkar det mänskliga medvetandet.
Allt vi säger är, låt oss få 64 000 personer, arbeta på dem, antingen via skype eller här på centret, låt oss höja deras medvetandenivå, och då är jobbet klart. Du behöver ingen organisation, du behöver inga LIO-kurser och åka runt i världen och tala om allt detta. Många länder har redan fyllt sin kvot av de 64 000.
Vi närmar oss faktiskt. Trainers gör ett utmärkt jobb. Om vi gör det kan vi påverka människors perception år 2012. Men det är inte slutet på historien. Efter det fortsätter det av sig självt. Vi behöver inte göra någonting. Det är inte vi som ska ändra energierna, det är ett naturfenomen. Allt vi ska göra är, vi ska använda oss av det, hjälpa människor att komma närmre varann, känna sig sammankopplade, känna sig lugnare, mer fridsamma, vilket är det vi kallar upplysning.
Så vem som helst kan använda det. Precis som när vi har elektricitet, så kan vi alla sitta här och tala i telefon, vi kan köra en elektrisk motor, vi kan tända en glödlampa. På samma sätt kommer energierna att finns där, 2012 finns de tillgängliga. Om vi är redo för det kan vi göra ett fantastiskt arbete. Om vi misslyckas 2012, ok, så blir det kanske 2013 eller 2014, men varför skjuta på det? Detta är inget ouppnåeligt mål. Det är allt jag säger.
På så sätt finns det dasas som är upplysta, som är transformerade personer, som inte blir sårade, som inte reagerar, som är väldigt lugna och fridfulla utan inre konflikter. Det finns upplysta människor, inte bara bland dasas, utan också bland vanliga människor. Det enda problemet med dem är att de inte gör väsen av sig. De lever anonymt, det finns inga begär i dem. De lever mycket lågmälda liv. De kan ge en insikt här åt någon, en insikt där till någon, hjälpa någon. Eftersom en verkligt upplyst människa inte gör väsen av sig. Han kommer inte att breda ut sig. Han kommer inte att försöka bli betydande. Ingenting är där. Tyvärr är dessa personer mycket lågmälda, tysta människor. Och de som gör mycket väsen, tas ofta felaktigt för att vara de som är mycket kapabla. Så det finns upplysta dasas och det finns också upplysta människor. Men de kan vara, eller inte, i ett upplyst tillstånd, ibland är de där, ibland inte, men upplysning består. De är uppvaknade personer.

Q. On one hand there is global warming, economic crisis,
industrialization etc and on other hand there is spiritual growth happening towards the run up to the age of enlightenment. How should we prepare ourselves and what changes are we going to see in world?
A. The preparation/conception for the age to enlightenment started in 1989 by many spiritual movements. And 2012 will be the birth of the new age which will grow in 2035. There will be difficulties and disorder during this phase before 2012 which in turn will bring about a greater order. In 2012 a large number of people will change perceptions. The world will slowly move into order.
It will be easier for people to excel in their own respective fields, be it spiritual, economical, political or any field for that matter beginning with 2012. And all the spiritual movements are responsible for bringing about this change.
Q. Got major experiences and breakthroughs through the Living in Oneness seminar and also received deekshas in the event which has helped in many ways. If you say that the divine aspect has been removed from the course, then how did we get those experiences?
A. I have been getting reports that all the courses in the west are psychology based. Even the ones in OU are related to the mind and therefore psychological in nature. But we have also introduced divinity in the courses. That makes the courses of Oneness different than the other psychology-based courses. The LIO would have been much more effective and people’s consciousness would have risen even further if the divine aspect was brought into the picture. If the divine is not incliuded it will be like any other course in the world.
Subtle changes have been made where slowly the divine has been cut off, little by little. I don't say they are doing it consciously.
Subtly people are being bound. I want to see this with all the people, anything binding must go, think for yourself be free.
I have been talking to many great minds in the western world (which is more advanced in the field of psychology than India) and they are quite OK with the divine aspect. But I was kept in the dark for many years and was incorrectly informed that the westerners don’t want it that way. I was the one who wanted the picture of AmmaBhagavan to be removed.
I have always maintained to give away the knowledge to all the people who will run the courses (LIO and L1 and L2) in their respective cities/countries. I was told that people will not be able to conduct the processes properly and I say ‘we can always train them properly and give them the skill set’
I was being told by these acharyas that I am perceived to be more ‘Hinduist’ whereas I have always been open to all the faiths. And I have interacted with many Muslim moolahs, atheist, Hindu priests, people from Vatican, Buddhist monks and have been open to all of their views. And that is why we are also able to conduct courses out of the Bible for Christians, Quran for Muslims etc. I have always maintained
that a human being should be free to choose his own religion/faith and that there should not be any binding. There should not be any successor(s) to AmmaBhagavan and that AmmaBhagavan are not individuals but a phenomenon. Even AmmaBhagavan should fade away from the scene of
Oneness and let Oneness dwell in the hearts of people who should take it forward. In my life, perhaps in 2014, we should see the oneness movement dissolved. Otherwise I see this as a danger for it to become a cult and a religion. It is not that I want to impress anyone. I have already got a huge following in the south of India which is enough for me!
Q. The most important aspect of the Oneness movement is ‘Life is relationship’. How should we take it in the light of the current situation going on in Oneness organisation?
A. My way of understanding things is a bit strange. I have transferred the karma of one person into another (which is believed to be possible in India). Once a daughter and a mother came to me and the mother was asking me to transfer the cancer of her daughter to her. I refused initially that I cannot do it, but after much persistence from the mother, I did so. And after few days, the mother died and the daughter was free of cancer and saved. So this is possible.
There is an incident from the past where in Ramana Maharishi was suffering from cancer and a person asked him if it can be transferred to him. At that point, Ramana Maharishi says ‘do you think I am carrying my own cancer?’
I have set right relationships for 1,000s of people. People who do this kind of healing should make sure that they don’t get affected.
And probably I made a mistake somewhere there.
So it could be possible that in healing those relationships, I took the karma onto me and so my relationship with my son and the Acharyas (who are like my children, they have been there since I started the school) is being affected.
They (all the acharyas and dasas) came to me on 4th of November and said that they were leaving. They said we are leaving but they didn't have the heart to say why. Later they said it was very hinduish... But I was the one who said take away the fire ceremony for example. I belong to all faiths, "I am aging so please allow my followers to interact with me" and they said if the people come to India it will be seen as a cult. But if I say they MUST come to India, then it will be
a cult...
Q. Can westerners attend the courses in India? Can we come to meet you?
A. I was of the opinion that the westerners should attend the course in India if they want. I was the one who asked to remove homas and rituals from the courses for the west if they are not comfortable and if any westerner wants to attend the ritual they can always got to another campus where its being performed. I also didn’t want the different levels of courses to be there. My childhood friend Parmacharya keeps on telling me to remove all the courses and interact with people directly so as to speed up the spiritual process in them and bring about a shift in their consciousness. But going forward, I will be speaking to people personally and giving deeksha and that will be equivalent to Level 3 if you like. Just half an hour of chat with me will be equivalent to 100 courses. And that’s what I would be doing. I will meet all of you personally from now on and I am waiting to meet you all. Somehow it was not allowed to be so for these many
years.
And we can have as different courses as you want like one for
Christians, Muslims or Hindu. You can even ask for a personal course to suit your need if you want. If you are a Christian we can only do a course from the Bible.
This work is all about freedom.
Q. We don't hear about meditating in the temple by dasas and thousands of devotees any more?
A. This was the reason why the temple was built - to make 2012 possible. Right now we are not happy with the quality of food for westerners so best to wait until March 2010, but if you are OK with it you can come now. After that people can openly come to the Oneness temple whenever they want and meditate. What else is the temple for?
The temple is made with only that vision and mission. I will
personally meditate with people there. We are waiting for you, we want you to come and meditate there.
Q. How can we relate to the acharyas now?
A. You can continue relating to them as a friend and continue loving and respecting them. I am only saying that they are no longer monks and no longer in the spiritual order. So you will have to relate to them using their original names. The names ‘Samadarshini’, ‘Anandagiri’ ‘Vimalakirthi’ are the names given by me to them when they joined the spiritual order. When you join a spiritual order you take a vow and abide to that. Much like an employee who abides by the
rules of an organization when he is working there.
Samadarshini is Jyotir Mahi, Anandagiri is Giribabu
OBS!!! Statement of SRI BHAGAVAN
091115Statement of SRI BHAGAVAN
Dear Friends,
I, Bhagavan, in deep distress and pain have to break this sad news to you. Krishna, the 3 senior guides (Anandagiri, Samadarshini and Vimalakeerthi) and the overseas guides have broken away from the Oneness Movement.
They have neither sought my permission nor do they have my blessings and have done this against my wishes. While claiming to be with Amma Bhagavan, they are doing things not in line with our thinking. This is a grave set back for our mission of 2012.
What Amma Bhagavan want are the following:
1. All courses must be made either free or charged only to the extent of covering the expenses. The movement should not make any profit through its courses or any of its activities. Money and spirituality do not go well together and eventually ONENESS would be destroyed.
2. The Oneness Trainers must themselves be trained to conduct the Living in Oneness programmes and the Level-1 and Level-2 programmes in their respective countries. The senior guides and the other guides must only be involved in training the trainers and not conducting the courses themselves. All the remittances collected should only be shared between the trainers and their local body in order to promote the work. No part of it should go to any other body or used for personal benefit. This would prevent it from becoming a money making Cult.
3. Anybody wanting to meet us should have direct access to us and there should be no intermediaries and conditions attached. People should have easy and free access to us. This way we could help them grow rapidly.
4. After the passing away of Amma Bhagavan, there should neither be a successor nor successors and no organized spiritual structure left behind. This would prevent it from becoming another CULT. Let ONENESS live in the hearts of millions of people and not in an organized structure of hierarchies. Man has been repeating this mistake time and again.
5. Our vision has always been to set man totally and unconditionally free. Let not ONENESS yet again bind millions of people through its structures, through its hierarchies and through moneymaking activities.
Help me to keep this vision alive.

"The Final Mayan Calendar Steps to 2012"
091104"The Final Mayan Calendar Steps to 2012:
November 8, 2009, The Beginning of the Sixth Night"
The new world of 2012 is not something that simply will drop down on us ready made from the sky. It is something that is created step by step through the various phases, so called days and nights, of the Mayan calendar that we are living through also at the current time and requires our active and conscious participation in the process as co-creators of this new world.
In stark contrast to the media focus on a singular date and the end of the world that this purportedly will bring the only existing inscription about the end of the calendar from ancient Mayan times speak of the simultaneous manifestation of Nine different cosmic forces quite.
The Mayan calendar is a description of the exact rhythm with which these cosmic forces are manifesting and so the study of this is critical for anyone seriously wanting to use it for understanding the cosmic plan and how the birth of a new world will take place. What humanity is now immediately facing is the beginning of the sixth night, November 8, 2009 - November 2, 2010, a time period that, as part of this cosmic plan, may be expected to be very transformative but also very demanding through its effects on the world's economic system.
A night implies a "quantum jump" to a lower energy state of the universe and this one seems likely to bring a significant fall of the American dollar and an associated downturn in the economy. This is discussed in more detail in the enclosed article
(http://www.calleman.com/content/articles/nov8_sixth_night.htm ).
While this is likely to bring hardships it also creates the path to a new world where the emphasis will not be on doing, but on being, being in peace and harmony. Difficulties will however arise for us to achieve this if we try to hold on to the systems of the past and fail to flow in the direction that the cosmic plan is taking us. This raises the question as to how we may approach and relate to this time period in the most constructive way.

Att älska är att acceptera dig själv som du är
090909Den kärlek vi talar om här är inte på tanke nivå eller genom perspektiv, utan mer på en nivå av känsla. Vi behöver kunna skilja tankar från känslor, så många olika sorters tankar kommer upp på en dag. Tankar ändrar sig hela tiden, negativa och positiva. Tankar är i sinnet. Den andra komponenten vi ofta inte lägger märke till är våra känslor. Känslor är fysiska i kroppen, du kan känna dem i hjärtat, det är något väldigt kompakt.
Du kan ha goda känslor om Gud av olika slag, att livet är vackert och att universum är fantastiskt. Om du känner dessa positiva känslor, så när tankar kommer upp under dessa känslor, kan du lägga märke till att tankar inte stör dig lika mycket, som t.ex. att något kommer gå helt fel i morgon, du märker bara att de passerar igenom. Om känslan är att du är tacksam eller glad verkar tankar bara vara något som oskadligt kommer och går. Känslor är alltid mer kraftfulla än tankar.
I kontrast, om du har djupa smärtsamma känslor som depression, djup ensamhet, raseri, känner dig negligerad och du ger näring till de känslorna, kommer du se att det är nästan omöjligt att ha positiva tankar. Och även om du har dem så kommer snabbt känslorna inkräkta på dessa tankar och undertrycka dem och då kommer du fortsätta ha dessa negativa känslor. Det här är för att ge klarhet vad det är som händer på tankenivån och på känslonivån. Känslor är mer fysiska.
Att älska dig själv är en känsla, inte bara en tanke eller perspektiv där du säger ”Jag är vacker” ”livet är perfekt”, ”inget är fel med mig”, ”allt är väl”, Du kanske känner någon tröst och befrielse, någon konflikt kanske lugnar ner sig men den verkliga processen att älska dig själv är när KÄNSLAN du håller om dig själv har skiftat. Det är som att du fysiskt känner hur underbart livet är där du kan slappna av och njuta i vinden.
Den känslan sker när det är frånvaro av motstånd. Den sker när du inte kämpar med något och när du upplever att vad som än händer, dina laddningar och negativa motstånd. Vad som skiftar är din KÄNSLA. Tankar kanske fortsätter att vara det samma men helt plötsligt skiftar känslorna du kanske hade med de tankarna, och tankarna stör dig inte. Tankarna får dig kanske att skratta oavsett hur hemska tankarna är. Det är inte tanken som räknas. Det är känslan som gör all skillnad.
Varför har vi negativa känslor? Vi har negativa känslor för att vi stoppar upp våra känslor. Vi är inte bekväma med vad som är där och vi blockerar dem från att komma igenom och detta orsakar negativitet. Hela processen av att trycka ner känslor, kontrollera dem, eller begränsa dem skapar negativitet. Allt som är förtryckt blir negativt.
Nedtryckning och restriktion av ilska, skuld och rädsla binder sig vid tankar och gör dem mer negativa. När vi begränsar dessa känslor genererar det helt naturligt negativa känslor. Denna negativa känsla binder sig vid de negativa tankarna och stödjer dem. När rädsla först kommer så är det inte ett så stort problem. Allteftersom du tillåter negativa känslor att stanna kvar inne i dig och ruttna så förstoras det negativa. När vi upplever vårt lidande och har uppmärksamheten till våra laddningar så skiftar känslor, komponenten och därigenom upplever du en känsla av lättnad.
Det är denna befrielse, upplysning och uppvaknande som AmmaBhgavan pratar om, inte bara intellektuella insikter vi kan skaffa oss. Vi kanske upptäcker att all existens är ett eller att det inte finns någon separation på en intellektuell nivå. Om dina känslor fortfarande är miserabla och vi håller ogynnsamma känslor så spelar allt detta ingen roll. Du kommer fortfarande känna det samma, som samma dåre.
Vad menar vi med att begränsa våra tankar och känslor? Vad är det som hindrar oss från att uppleva vad som är där? Problemet är inte så mycket upplevelsen av lidande eller rädsla, men processen av att namnge och bedöma det som kommer upp för att upplevas. Så många ord binder sig från sinnet. Sinnet försöker omfamna upplevelsen med alla sina åsikter, trosföreställningar och koncept. Hela processen att namnge och döma orsakar en dränering av energi. Allteftersom energin går ner, går vi in i en zon av negativa känslor och du börjar må konstigt.
Den acceptans vi pratar om handlar inte om att säga ”Jag vet att jag har rädsla och det är ok.” Den acceptans vi pratar om är att komma förbi den namngivningsprocessen där du inte längre har behov att tillägga ett värde eller ett perspektiv till processen. ”Det är bra, rätt, fel, dålig”. Det handlar om att komma över alla dessa splittrande perspektiv.
Total acceptans är möjligt när vi kommer över vårt behov att binda oss vid att namnge och värdera upplevelsen. Det är då du känner ett totalt skift. När inga mentala koncept binder sig vid upplevelsen, när du inte längre tillägger värdering till upplevelsen, då upplever du ren medvetenhet och detta är total salighet. Det är en manifestation av Gud. När du är fylld med ovillkorlig respons till känslan upplevs det som total salighet. Det är väldigt heligt. Det är denna kärlek vi pratar om.
Kan du titta på dina tankar, laddningar och livet på detta vis? Om du kan så kommer du se att det känns heligt, att faktiskt se Gud. När alla våra mentala perspektiv och tillägg faller bort så känns varje upplevelse enorm och helig. Det går inte att placera det in i någon splittrad struktur. Den känslan är kärlek. En sådan känsla av att bara vara och av lättnad. Att du gör ingenting annat, bara ren existens, medvetande och salighet som kallar för Saft Chict Ananda.
Detta händer när vi upplever alltv fullt ut. Det finns också en respons på lägre nivå. ”Allt är bra”. ”Mitt sinne är inte mitt sinne, jag har inte ansvar för min laddning. Ingen är ansvarig.” Detta kan du nå på en intellektuell nivå. Du kanske har någon slags befrielse på denna lägre nivå. Den djupare acceptansen sker när du inte kan ge något namn till upplevelsen. Det är vad det är. Du kan inte säga att den är dålig eller bra eller vem är ansvarig för den. Det behövs inte säga någonting – du är i tystnad. Det är vackert, du känner dig uppfylld. Detta kan inte bli analyserat eller satt in i ett mentalt koncept. Det är väldigt fysiskt. Det finns inget sätt att beskriva hur kroppen upplever denna totala bekvämhet och salighet.
AmmaBhagavan talar om något som kallas för ”händelse”. Vad är det? På den intellektuella nivån där vi använder undervisning kan du komma till någon sorts acceptans, tröst och frid. Du kan följa de olika stegen, fråga rätt frågor, stanna kvar vid lidandet och du ser för dig själv hur du går framåt till en viss nivå. Detta känns mycket bättre än det tillstånd du hade förut. Dessa steg och acceptans är baserat på ANSTRÄNGNING.
Det finns en annan nivå där du helt plötsligt finner medvetenhet, acceptans av det som sker helt av sig själv. Du kan inte bara stoppa denna känsla av laddningen. Den verkar ske av sig själv. Det är när detta händer som sinnet inte kan namnge upplevelsen och lägga till en betydelse eller mening till den. DET BARA HÄNDER.
Ett exempel är en flygande drake. När du flyger en drake försöker du få upp draken genom att dra i snöret precis på rätt sätt så att den lyfter från marken och du försöker få den att flyga i luften. Vid en tidpunkt så kommer den ner, den går in i en vindpust och du behöver inte göra någonting än att lösa på snöret och låta draken gå upp i luften. Draken kan stanna där uppe för alltid om du binder den vid en påle.
Likaså om du iakttar en örn som flyger så flaxar örnen sina vingar när den lyfter och sen väldigt snart så går den in i vindstömmen. Den flyger inte, den är hållen och görs till att flyga. Örnen glider av sig själv och kan glida i långa perioder. Örnar och gamar är kända för att sova under deras flygtid. Det händer inte med kråkor eller sparvar och andra fåglar för de kan inte röra sig in i bindströmmen. Örnen har besegrat himlen och använder ingen ansträngning.
Det är denna händelse som AmmaBhagavan talar om. För denna händelse behövs det ett skift i den fysiska hjärnan. För denna händelse måste ett högre medvetande och närvaro fylla os. Detta är som vindströmmen. Alla våra övningar är som örnens första flaxande och när vi först drar i snöret till draken. Vi behöver ha våra steg och ansträngningar att göra vår del med intention och agerande. Detta kommer sakta styra dig in i strömmen till ett högre medvetande. Någon klickar helt plötsligt och du gör praktiskt taget ingenting. Du kan inte sluta att uppleva laddningarna, lidanden och medvetenheten. Det händer bara. Laddningen kommer upp och blir upplevd och du gör ingenting. Det finns en känsla av självhat och helt plötsligt är det ett skift, du gör ingenting. Det bara händer.
Så fortsätt därför att acceptera dig själv, din kropp, dina känslor, din livssituation, dina misstag, dina uppbrott, dina upplevelser. När du blir påmind om detta använd dig av de olika stegen vi gett och försök stanna kvar i känslan. Gör dina ansträngningar och likaså kom ihåg att ansträngningarna är där för att styra dig in i flödet av Gudomlig Nåd.
Från min egen upplevelse av detta skift när AmmaBhagavan gav oss deeksha och ledde oss in i en process. När jag gick igenom min träning satte jag en intention att uppleva mig själv helt och hållet. Jag ville uppleva alla mina rädslor och laddningar. Jag brukade göra mitt bästa att praktisera detta. När jag satt i mitt rum kom det en känsla av rädsla inkrypande. Jag kunde sitta i samma position och uppleva rädsla tills känslan lämnade mig. Med en djup ångest som greppade tag i mig kunde jag ligga på en plats i en halvtimme eller timme så min uppmärksamhet kunde stanna på känslan, till känslan avtog. Jag trodde jag hade häng på processen.
En gång gav AmmaBhagavan oss deeksha och kände något väldigt annorlunda. Jag brukade känna en känsla av lättnad på det mentala planet. För första gången kände jag hela kroppen skaka i rädsla och så intensivt. Helt plötsligt var det en explosion och hela kroppen är en känsla av salighet. Detta fortsätta att hända igen och igen och jag kunde se klart att jag inte gjorde någonting, det var kroppen som gjorde det. Jag brukade känna en våg av rädsla från min fot till mitt huvud och sen en förlösning och kroppen hade en ström av salighet som rusade som en våldsam ström.
Efter detta såg jag att det inte fanns något JAG som försökte stanna kvar med min rädsla eller känsla, det bara HÄNDE. Så snart kroppen går in i negativa känslor som smärta eller lidande så känns det omedelbart som att hela kroppen tar eld och någonting brister och detta följer av en explosion av salighet. Medvetenheten är så intensiv, den upplever bara allt som händer inne i mig.
Bhagavan brukade tala om för oss att medvetenhet är som en förbränningskammare. Vilken del eller känsla som kommer in brinner omedelbart och förlöser energi. Detta började jag att se från min egen process. Känslan är förvandlad till salighet. När medvetenheten är obehindrad så blir mina känslor omvandlade till salighet.
Allteftersom denna process fortsatte började jag känna mig så bra. Detta är en väldigt fysisk känsla av att känna sig så bra. Jag tappade mitt behov av att lägga till värdering från mitt sinne. Processen av att bara känna rädsla och känna att hela kroppen skakar och att se kroppen reagera är så saligt och så komplett att det inte finns något rum för perspektiv att komma upp eller tillägga något. Det är så chockerande och det vänder mig in i tystnad och jag kan inte säga någonting om det. Det är vad det är och det är vackert. Det är så intensivt, det är så stilla, det är så kraftfullt.
Från denna upplevelse förstod jag vad AmmaBhagavn menade med ”händelse”. Det är denna händelse som Oneness Blessing är skapad för och avsedd att producera. Självfallet kan vi hjälpa denna händelse om vi har investerat någon mängd ansträngning. Praktisera undervisningen, upplev lidandet och dina känslor och gör ansträngningen men vet att detta bara är en del av jobbet. Vi måste vara tålamodiga och öppna oss för Gudomlig Nåd för detta är händelsen som sker. V måste tålamodigt vänta för vindens strömmar att lyfta oss.
Blessingen idag är för denna händelse att hända i våra liv. Stäng ögonen med ryggen rak. Ta din närvaro till hjärtat. När du mediterar på hjärtchakrat, försök tona in dig på en känsla av tacksamhet. Se det som en fysisk sensation i din kropp, invaggad i tacksamhet. Inte bara ord av tacksamhet. Uppmärksamma det behagliga känslan av tacksamhet och tillåt dig själv att sjunka ner i den känslan.
Frågor och Svar:
Fråga: Jag ger Blessings till mina anställda. 2 av de deltagande är Muslimer. Jag berättade om gudomlig intelligens och nåd och dessa ord verkar inte ha ett gensvar för dem. På vilket sätt kan vi förklara detta för någon som har Muslimsk tro.
Svar: De förstår alldeles säkert känslan av närvaron av Gud och att ta kontakt med närvaron av Gud.
Fråga: Efter min första Level 2 i Indien i April 2008 har min känsla av smak försvunnit. Jag har försökt healing av olika slag och fysiska och energi reningar men utan resultat.
Svar: Jag förstår inte varför detta skulle kunna hända. Sök medicinsk hjälp och testa vad som kan vara orsaken av detta.
Fråga: Jag upplever intensiv ryggsmärta de senaste månaderna om håller mig vaken på nätterna. Jag försöker stanna kvar i känslan.
Svar: En nivå är laddningarna du måste uppmärksamma, vilket du kanske redan gjort. Se om det finns ett mönster och tendens i ditt liv att gå in i besvärliga situationer och svårigheter och sen bryta genom det. Om detta är fallet har sinnet blivit utsatt för mönster av att se problem och sen fixa dem. Detta mönster skapar ett behov av att alltid ha problem för meningen i vårt liv kan vara att vi alltid vill ha besvärliga situationer som sen ska lösas. Jag vill att du kollar detta och se om du alltid haft dessa mönster. Det kan också vara ett rent fysiskt problem. Sök medicinsk hjälp, se om det är relaterat till platta fötter, diet etc.

9.9.9. and the Mayan Calendar
090909The number nine has been endowed with a special significance in many different spiritual and religious traditions. Nine was the number of muses in Greek mythology and Nine were the number of worlds in the Scandinavian. Nine was the number of doors to the holiest part of the temple in Jerusalem and the month of Ramadan is the Ninth in the Muslim calendar. Moreover, the counting system used by most of the world today includes nine numbers and so the relevance of this number is much ingrained in us. Also, in the Mayan tradition the number Nine plays a predominating role. The only existing inscription from ancient times that discusses the meaning of the Mayan calendar “end date” for instance speaks of Nine “deities” that will descend then as its crucial event. This would in modern wording mean that Nine energies, or Nine cosmic forces would fully manifest then since the ancient Maya would look upon time periods as “deities”. As far as we can tell these “deities”, or cosmic forces, are like evolutionary wave movements, built on top of one another where we are currently riding on the eighth one getting ready to ride on the ninth.
The Nine Cosmic levels (Underworlds) that according to the only existing Mayan inscription about the calendar end date (Tortuguero monument 6) will manifest then. Currently we are in the eighth level (The Galactic Underworld) gearing up to the Ninth and highest level, the Universal Underworld. Photo of the Pyramid of the Jaguar in Tikal by the author.)
In the manifestation of these evolutionary waves we may now as we approach the Ninth level notice an amazing synchronicity. This is that the upcoming date 9.9.9 (September 9, 2009 in the Gregorian calendar) happens to coincide with the beginning of a Mayan Sacred Calendar count of 260 days. Hence, in this calendar, in use since 3000 years, the modern date 9.9.9 has the energy of Hun Imix, or 1 Alligator as its English translation reads, which happens to be the first of its energetic combinations. If we ponder what this synchronicity may be telling us the most natural conclusion to draw is that on this particular date we are called to focus on the number nine and especially the Ninth level of the Mayan calendar system, whose coming into existence we are soon about to witness.
I believe that behind these cosmic forces, whose times of activation are described by the Mayan calendar, is an intelligent plan for the history of humanity that comes from a higher source and has a benevolent intention. To realize this is also to understand the importance of the guidance regarding how to follow this plan that we may gain from the calendar of the Maya. These nine cosmic forces are influencing and in fact governing our collective consciousness and so we have every reason to pay attention to what is going on in this cosmic time plan.
Synchronicities can often be interpreted in different ways, but if they are profound they always deserve our attention. 9.9.9, three Nines in a row, may for instance be seen as symbolic of three sacred calendar rounds of 260 days that will now in three steps lead us to the completion of the Ninth level of evolution which is its highest level. To the best of our knowledge this highest energy state of the universe will be attained on the energy 13.13.13.13.13.13.13.13.13 13 Ahau (13 and Ahau are symbols of completion in the Mayan calendar) on the Gregorian date October 28, 2011. This highest state does not in any sense mean the end of the world, but only that all the Nine wave movements are then completed. Maybe we can use the metaphor that we are now about to climb the last hard steps of a ladder until we climb on to the roof where we will find a new stability under our feet and a place to rest.
Regardless of what this final climb will mean we thus have reasons to expect an unprecedented period of change in a very short period of time. This is partly because we are entering the final phase of the eighth level of evolution and partly because a wave movement of a very high frequency, the Ninth level, will radically come to transform the collective consciousness in such a way that we will see the world in an entirely different light. It is for this reason that in the three upcoming Sacred Calendar rounds that follow upon 9.9.9 we will need to network and focus our intentions so that they converge in the birth of a new world. This is all the more important as there are several sources that seem to indicate that the sixth night of the Galactic Underworld, beginning on November 8, 2009, may come to generate a deep downturn in the world’s economy.
The first of these 260-day Sacred Calendar rounds, the one which actually begins on 9.9.9 and goes on until May 26, 2010, may be seen as a period of build-up to the Ninth level that is suitable for prayer, meditation and mental focusing. We encourage community building, networking and spiritual synchronization in this time period, also of a practical nature. The second 260 calendar round, starting 27.05.10 will create a preliminary arrival of the Ninth level and the beginning of this will be marked by the Cosmic Convergence, July 17-18, a significant focus point for spiritual projects of a practical nature that will prepare for the birth of a new world. The third Sacred Calendar round of 260 days will begin February 11, 2011 and includes the actual activation of the Ninth level, the Universal Underworld on March 8, 2011. This may be the most dramatic of the three steps as it leads up to the establishment of the highest energy state of the universe on October 28, 2011.
I believe that through these three steps, three Sacred Calendar rounds, starting on 9.9.9: 1/ Build-up, 2/ Preparatory Ninth level and 3/ Actual Ninth level of the evolution of the cosmos, the universe is now about to deliver what it has been striving towards all along, the establishment of a new level of consciousness, a unity consciousness. I also believe that the Ninth level is designed especially to generate such a unity consciousness, which will transform all of human society. For the human race it will mean very big challenges and opportunities. These changes will however not happen by themselves and need to be manifested by the human beings themselves who may then chose to resist or welcome them. From this perspective we may thus look at the date 9.9.9 not only as a numerological curiosity to celebrate, but also as an opportunity for us to focus on and embrace the participation of humanity in a transformation process of a very large scale, the one brought by the Ninth level of the Cosmos.
From what we may understand of the Mayan calendar the unity consciousness will set an end to all forms of dominance of one human over another and especially those generated by the left brain. What this likely will mean is that instruments of dominance, such as the current financial system, weapons, national borders and many other structures upholding authority in this process will come to crumble as an effect of this unity consciousness coming into existence and so conclude with the birth of a new world where a divine harmony characterize the human relations. This end to dominance will also affect the relationship between the genders on a global scale that as a result will profoundly shift. Needless to say, there will never be any return to business as usual. Instead we will need to approach the birth of the new world consciously and with an intention of co-creating it in a positive sense and not just react to the various difficulties that lie ahead. I believe that such a collective intention of co-creating the new world will be the best way of easing the consequences of these difficulties.
Although what is starting on 9.9.9 is only the build-up phase to the Ninth level, this date is nonetheless a very important focusing point since the timing of the continued preparations for the emergence of this level are of the essence. From this follows that the more practical projects that will start to manifest in the Cosmic Convergence, July 17-18 2010 as the name implies, will have to be based on an understanding that the very framework of the human existence and of consciousness will be dramatically expanded. The expansion of human consciousness is what will bring the socio-economic transformation at a time when the hardships of the old systems may be expected to be painfully felt also by nations that currently may been considered as wealthy. As the Ninth level is finally activated our identities will come to be defined in a much expanded spiritual framework.
This article comes much too late to encourage people more broadly to focus and intend together for the future. Nonetheless, many will celebrate the 9.9.9 date regardless (see for example http://www.fredpajorden.se/sida21.html ). The purpose of my present article is then only to inform those that will be celebrating this date anyway, that indeed this is not just a numerological curiosity in the Gregorian calendar, but that the date plays a profound objective role in the cosmic plan as we may understand this from the Mayan calendar directly leading up to the birth of a new world through the Ninth level, 9.9.9. It is an ideal time to participate in prayers and meditations with the focus and intention of co-creating a new and better world. Additional tools for networking and communication with the focus on the Cosmic Convergence, July 17-18, 2012 will be developed as we go along. 9.9.9 may be seen as an initial and modest initial call for the co-creation of the birth of a new world.

Anything Fully Experienced Turns to Joy or Bliss
090813Anything Fully Experienced Turns to Joy or Bliss
This is the most important objective of all spiritual sadhana how AmmaBhagaven are reinterpreting spirituality and meditation to us.
Becoming awakened doesn't mean you don't face challenges and difficult emotions like fear, pain, etc. All these are experiences that are very much a part of the mind. This is how the mind begins.
The objective of all spiritual processes put us into such a state of consciousness where we do not resist. We can
effortlessly experience and feel free.
Freedom means how well can you experience, how quickly you pay attention to it and thereby the experience of hurt and pain into joy.
We cannot stop these feelings from flowing. We can see the transformation into joy when we experience fully and then the emotions don't control you.
How we define experience of bliss. Inner stillness and stillness in consciousness and awareness. There is no dissipation of energy.
Energy is conserved and that energy is what you experience as bliss. When you lose energy because of lack of inner stillness, you have the experience of inner conflict and suffering. You feel you go lower as you go through these
experiences.
When you move to bliss and gratitude experiences, you feel your energy is going up. You feel stillness inside and not much need to resist or fight with anything. Things look more still, perfect and calm-this is bliss.
All spiritual sadhana is to enhance this stillness in consciousness.
To help people reach a state where there is a constant stillness and calmness while experiencing life situations and emotions.
Stillness is NOT absence of thought and flow of thoughts.
This only refers to cessation of conflict and resistance to reality. We are in a position where we can watch experience. You are able to more intensely observe with high attention levels and observe the mental activities.
When there is a fight and resistance to what is happening inside, the process to trying to move away consumes lots of energy. It makes you feel low and that is when you cannot experience reality as it is. This is when we go on accumulating more charges, break relationships, and create many problems in our life.
Our most important focus in life is to ask the question of how can I pay attention to these experiences. Freedom is about experiencing what is inside. Not about finding a way where all life situations are perfect without adversity. Rather it is the confidence and faith to face whatever we are experiencing and facing. We need to make a firm decision that this is
the spirituality I want to attend to. Without this decision, we are roaming without a focus.
9 Steps for Handling our Experiences from Oneness Conference in Milan by Sri Anandagiriji:
1- Become conscious that we are suffering. We need to admit it . When a charge surfaces, when we are not feeling all right, the force of habit and social conditioning is to tell ourselves that we are feeling fine.
When we are in pain and suffering, we need to acknowledge and accept it. No need to make any effort to move away from it.
When you are in fear, there is no point to say you are feeling fine. Admit you are feeling low.
2- Become aware of habitual questions of the mind to take us away from the discomfort. The mind throws up wrong questions: Who caused this suffering to me? Why did they do it to me? Why should life be so cruel to me?
This makes us interested in finding cause and blame to attribute to somebody or a situation and disperses our attention to the questions instead of experiencing what is going on inside.
If we get stuck in these questions, we cannot concentrate. What habitual questions are you asking?
Once you're suffering, the important part is how you deal with it. It's irrelevant about right and wrong or because of who or why you are suffering.
3- Ask the right question. Right questions are driven by a vision to experience our emotions.
So the question must be how to I deal with the pain?
How do I experience it? How do I become free? This takes you right into the experience instead of distractions of the wrong questions.
Liberation comes from the attention to the feeling in our body and our hearts. As we pay attention, this is where the process moves deeper. Who and why are irrelevant. You can feel immense focus building up as you ask the right question of how do I become free of it through the experience.
4- Become aware of the habitual response of blaming, fighting with the situation, or losing all motivation in life. Moving into depression and self-hate.
All these are old habits, how we have trained ourselves to deal with it. We fight with ourselves or others, feel guilty, blame others, condemn ourselves or others. Attention is then moving outwards.
Constantly prompts you to believe liberation is elsewhere by someone else or situations changing. By doing something else and turning attention away is the habit and the biggest mistake. This brings you more entanglement.
5- Make the decision. Once you know this is a habit and no sense or logic in it. It's just a track where the mind is moving out of habit. It is foolish. Breaking a habit requires a firm resolve.
We need to become clear in ourselves and re-program our responses. Making the decision that I am not moving away from this experience come what may. I'll do anything and
everything required to pay attention to the experience. This will break the old habit pattern. This is not a one day affair. Every time you get in touch with charges and you keep repeating your resolve, you will be more able to engage. It takes practice.
Resolve and face each time and eventually you will have a breakthrough and the process will get easier. Even if we fail 100 times, we need to resolve the 101st time.
That is our ultimate goal. We must reach it. No moving away,
no other alternative. Body posture will also help to reprogram new habit-to physically anchor by sitting erect as you make the decision.
Close your eyes and breathe deeply and keep your left palm below and close it with the right palm on the right thigh. As you inhale, then hold your breadth, make the decision-"I am experiencing this feeling completely." Then exhale. Do this 7
times.
6- Invoke the divine presence. It's also a matter of divine benediction.
We need the intense focus and extra bit of energy. It's important that the spiritual energy or kundalini is activated by divine grace. The brain must be pushed into concentrating all attention. This is like focusing a magnifying glass lens onto cotton in the sunlight. That is what is happening in consciousness.
Our emotions can undergo a transformation. You can ask for
a blessing from AmmaBhagavan by touching their picture or to receive a blessing from another facilitator.
7- Allow yourself to go through the whole experience.
Just see what you are feeling physically and go with it.
There is nothing to make sense of, it is just an experience to go through.
8- After you complete the experience and feel sense of silence, joy or gratitude, you will make an affirmation that "Suffering is not in the fact, but in my perception." Repeat this 7 times.
With the first hand experience through the first 7 steps, this teaching will be deeply lodged and the next time the teaching will be inside you and you will effortlessly begin to focus inward. Breathe in and out as before, joining hands and your heart-as you breathe in and hold the breath, make the affirmation, and then breathe out.
9- Conclude with expressing gratitude to the divine and/or to AmmaBhagavan.
Spirituality is not so much about experiencing higher states and mystical happenings, but about re-programming our responses.
Our responses determine our destiny. If we respond out of old habits, we break up our relationships and cause disease. If we respond through acceptance and experience it and
see the transformation, we are creating a new golden age.
Teach yourself this new response and that you keep doing it. It will become faster and faster. It is like kick starting an engine that has not been started for a long time. If you follow these 9 steps, we are retracing our mind back. If you become a master in this and it is a habit to transform
suffering into bliss, imagine how much confidence you will feel.
We're constantly ensuring that suffering will not come to us. We try to keep it at bay.
Do not waste your energy protecting yourself from experiencing difficult emotions.
Our need to feel right and analyze and blame keeps us
running away from suffering.
Once we are a part of the feeling of bliss from following these steps, we will be liberated.
If you see your charges dissolve, your fears and traumas giving way, you will clearly see you are proceeding on a spiritual path.
We're always concerned about whether or not we are moving forward. If you can see more and more joy filling your heart, you know you are progressing towards a higher state and better form of living. How beautiful this is.
Don't give up! It will seem difficult in the beginning because of the old entrenched mental habits and the mind doesn't want to give up.
We simply need determination in our hearts to do this. As each of us successfully manage to transform suffering into bliss in our lives, we are creating a new program in collective human consciousness and more people will spontaneously notice themselves experiencing emotions.
This is our contribution to the Golden Age. Be prepared to put in consistent effort over time. Spend time every day practicing as you come across difficult emotion or adversity. Take this as the opportunity to practice to undo the collective pattern of avoidance.
All analysis and psychological activity is the habit of the mind to run away. If we stay with what is there, we have freedom of the effort to avoid the thoughts. Allow the suffering to freely flow and just keep watching it.
I'm sure you will see beautiful results as you practice this sadhana.
Practice it. Do it.
Questions and Answers:
Q1: I am not sure if I am fully experiencing what is. I am doing whatever I can to stay with the emotions. Am I doing something wrong if I'm not feeling joy. Am I fooling myself that I am experiencing?
A1: If you follow the 9 steps, it will be clear. Many of us have the idea that joy is feeling laughing and lightness or bursting of happiness in the body. Joy is more about feeling a sense of freedom from fear of facing the emotion, that I can do this again if needed. The joy is the feeling of learning how to work with your emotions. We are evoking the faith within
ourselves to know we can do this.
Q2: I would like to fully experience abandonment. I get lots of practice as people leave me feeling my fear of abandonment. I've faced other emotions, but not this one.
A2: Some of us have deep traumas and want to apply the process to that.
Start with something more simple so you get the new habit and confidence.
If you don't feel like emotions are leaving you, don't keep chasing that emotion to master. Leave it and give it some time. All emotions are networked. So whatever emotion we can deal with will affect others. It is just important to master the art of experiencing and learning this skill.
Work on simple emotions and this will eventually clear the path to stay with core emotions.
Q3: I gave a blessing to someone who felt good about it and the next day she went into very deep place of discomfort. The woman is still in difficult place after 3 weeks. What advice can you give?
A3: Obviously she is resisting even if she understands intellectually.
If you can make people feel supported and loved and nurtured, they may be more ready to step forward to face their emotions. The mind is very adamant, it is better to give it fulfillment. When people are really suffering, especially with newcomers with no teachings, give them support, not
necessarily the teaching. Help them with the teaching later. Sometimes we have to help people escape suffering if they're not ready to face the feelings directly.
Q4: I have two sons. I would like to teach them to experience their anger instead of acting out. They are 5 and 7. What would you advise?
A4: two options. Teach them through an elaborate process to stay with emotion or take the shortcut. What is the shortcut? There must be anger in you too.
If you can go through the whole experience in yourself with anger through the 9 steps and when you experience the breakthrough of being able to tranform it into joy, then just touch them and give them the blessing. Automatically they will be able to experience their emotions.
All facilitators can notice as we work in mastering this process that our blessings will automatically give the recipients the ability to experience their emotions.
When your children are in anger, hold the intent that they
experience their emotions and give them a blessing. If you do the 9 steps, this will be the most powerful.
Q5: What news of land and building for a center in the U.S. for AmmaBhagavan to teach a Level 3?
A5: We're still looking. Given the economy and real estate, we have been advised to go slow about land and buildings. That is why the progress is not evident.
Amma and Bhagavan will definitely be visiting the U.S. They are keen on coming. Before they visit, we must set the stage for it by creating wider awareness of the oneness phenomenon so they can impact large numbers of people. They look forward to the fulfillment of their vision as soon as
possible so they want to be able to effect masses of people at once.
The Living in Oneness courses are paving the way.
=========
Transmission of the Oneness Blessing through Krishnaraj:
Oneness Blessing with the focus on the 3rd chakra at the navel for this sadhana. When the third chakra is activated, it helps create passion, resolve, and intensity. ASK THE DIVINE TO HAVE THE KEEN DETERMINATION TO CREATE A NEW DESTINY FOR OURSELVES AND HUMANITY. WE WILL NOT SPARE ANY EFFORT TO STAY WITH THIS RESOLUTION WITHIN OURSELVES.

A Message from Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan 090307
090308A Message from Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan
Dear Friends,
In a world where mankind feels threatened by social upheavals, over population, wars, terrifying violence, callousness, each human being is more than ever concerned with his own survival.
Survival has implied living sanely, happily without great pressure or strain. Each one of us translates survival according to his own particular concept. The idealist projects a way of life which is not the actual; the theoreticians, whether Marxist, religious, or of any other particular persuasion have laid down patterns for survival; the nationalists consider survival possible only in a particular group or community. These ideologic differences, ideals and faiths are the roots of a division that is preventing human survival.
Men want to survive in a particular way, according to their narrow responses, according to their immediate pleasures, according to some faith. All these can in no way bring security, for in themselves they are divisive, exclusive, limited. To live in the hope of survival according to tradition, however ancient or modern, has no meaning. Partial solutions of any kind – scientific, religious, political, economic– can no longer assure mankind, its survival. Man has been concerned with his own individual survival, with his family, with his group, his nation and because all this is divisive it threatens his actual survival.
The modern divisions of nationalities, of color, of culture, of religion are the causes of man’s uncertainty of survival. In the turmoil of today’s world, uncertainty has made man turn to authority – to the political, religious or economic expert. The specialist is inevitably a danger because his response must always be partial, limited. Man is no longer individual, separate. What affects the few, affects all mankind. There is no escape or avoidance of the problem. You can no longer withdraw from the totality of the human predicament.
We cannot possibly survive if we are concerned with our own survival. All human beings the world over are interrelated today. What happens in one country affects the others. Man
considers himself an individual, separate from others but psychologically a human being is inseparable from the whole of mankind.
There is no such thing as psychological survival. When there is this desire to survive or to fulfill you are psychologically creating a situation which not only separates but which is totally unreal. Psychologically you cannot be separate from another and this desire to be separate psychologically is the very source of danger and destruction. Each person asserting himself threatens his own existence.
This assertion of separateness destroys our capacity to work together; to work together with nature, the living things of the earth and also with other human beings. As social beings we exist for ourselves. Our laws, our governments, our religions all emphasize the separateness of man – which during the centuries has developed into man against man. It is becoming more and more important, if we are to survive, that there be a spirit of cooperation with the universe, with all the things of the sea and earth.
One can see in all social structures the destructive effect of fragmentation taking place – nation against nation, one group against another group, one family against another family, one individual against another, religiously, socially, and economically. Each one is striving for himself, for his class or his particular interest in the community. This division of beliefs, ideals, conclusions and prejudices is preventing the spirit of cooperation from flowering. We are human beings, not tribal identities, exclusive, separate. We are human beings caught in conclusions, theories, faiths. We are living creatures, not labels. It is our human circumstance that makes us search for food, clothes and shelter at the expense of others. Our very thinking is seperative, and all actions springing from this limited self, must prevent cooperation. The economic and social structure, as it is now, including organized religions, intensifies exclusiveness, and separateness. This lack of cooperation ultimately brings about wars and the destruction of man. It is only during crises or disasters, that we seem to come together and when they are over we are back to our old condition. We seem to be incapable of living and working together harmoniously.
Is it because our brain, which is the centre of our thought, our feeling, has from ancient days become through necessity so conditioned to seek its own personal survival, that this isolating, aggressive process has come about? Is it because this isolating process identifies itself with the family, with the tribe, and becomes glorified nationalism? Is not all isolation linked to a need for identification and fulfillment? Has not the importance of the self been cultivated through evolution by the opposition of the ‘me’ and ‘you’, the ‘we’ and ‘they’? Have not all religions emphasized personal salvation, personal enlightenment, personal achievement, both religiously and in the world? Has cooperation become impossible because we have given such importance to this sense of separateness? Is it because human cooperation has centered on some kind of authority of Government or religion around some ideology or conclusion, which then inevitably brings about its own destructive opposite?
What does it mean to cooperate – not the word but the spirit of it? You cannot possibly cooperate with another, with the earth and its waters, unless you in yourself are harmonious, not broken up, non contradictory; you cannot cooperate if you yourself are under strain, pressure, conflict. How can you cooperate with the universe if you are concerned with yourself, your problems and your ambitions? There can be no cooperation if all your activities are self centered and you are occupied with your own selfishness, with your own secret desires and pleasures. As long as the intellect with its thoughts dominates all your actions, obviously there can be no cooperation, for self-centered thought is partial, narrow and everlastingly divisive. Cooperation demands great honesty. Honesty has no motive. Honesty is not some ideal, some faith. Honesty is clarity – the clear perception of things as they are. Perception is attention. That very attention throws light with all its energy on that which is being observed. This light of perception brings about a transformation of the thing observed. There is no system through which you learn to cooperate. It is not to be structured and classified. Its very nature demands that there be love and that love is not measurable, for when you compare – which is the essence of measurement – self has entered. Where self is, love is not.
When the truth of all this is seen and understood man’s responsibility undergoes a radical change not only towards his immediate environment but also towards all living things. This total responsibility is love. This love acts through intelligence. This intelligence is not partial, individual separate. Love is never partial. Love is the sacredness of all living things.
We have stated the problem, the cause and now we must find the solution. Through no effort of his, could man possibly make it. All this is possible only when your heart is filled with the Presence. The Presence flows into you through Oneness Blessing.
Oneness Blessing TM would thus help create a new generation of human beings, with a new outlook, with a new sense of being citizens of the world, concerned with all the living things of the earth. It is your grave responsibility to help bring about this Oneness.
Thank you.

090212Oneness
Att visa vägen i Oneness-tiden
Om du inte verkligen talar sanning så kan du inte heller utveckla den inre integriteten särskilt mycket. Det du säger är ytligt, det saknar djup. Först när du börjar tala sanning kan du verkligen veta vad det är som händer inuti dig. Inte annars. Du kommer ner på djupet och det är då miraklen händer. Miraklet är att du kommer till roten. Och du upptäcker att allt är tomt. Och därför blir du fri från det. Glädjen du kommer att finna kan inte beskrivas. Det spelar ingen roll vad det handlade om.
Vad är autenticitet? Att se det som är där.
Förstå att inre integritet är att se vad som är där; sanning är att uttrycka det du ser. (*) Sanning blir autenticitet, yttre autenticitet.
Först ser du. Sen uttrycker du det. Att se är en sak, uttrycka är något annat, och om du gör det kommer du att upptäcka att effekten är ofattbar.
Du behöver inte göra nånting mer, det sker automatiskt efter det.
Försök! Varje stund blir glädjefylld i ditt liv; det är tillräckligt. Du kommer inte att längta efter något mer i livet. Du kommer inte att säga: Jag vill ha det, och det. Det blir faktiskt en glädje bara att se vad som håller på inuti dig. Det är vad livet handlar om. Vad är att leva? Det är att se vad som håller på inuti.
Men, eftersom du inte ser det, känner du dig uttråkad. Du tycker livet är meningslöst, utan syfte. Därför vill du ha ditten och datten. Skapar så många behov. Men om du verkligen skulle börja se vad som händer, så är det sån glädje; du kommer inte att vilja ha något mer av livet.
Du kan vara en tiggare, eller en spetälsk, eller sitta i rännstenen. Inget kommer att hända, du kommer bara att njuta av varje sekund av ditt liv. Du behöver inga pengar, inget namn, ingen berömmelse, ingenting, inte ens trygghet. Du skulle inte heller vara rädd för att dö. Och konstigt nog skulle livet ta hand om dig. Alla autentiska människor tas om hand av livet, eller Gud, vad du än vill kalla det. Icke-autentiska människor dör. Om du är autentisk och du inte har mat, så kommer mat till dig. På något sätt. På något sätt får du hjälp. Du går dit du vill gå. Ditt liv blir mirakulöst.
Eftersom du inte är autentisk så händer detta inte i ditt liv. Men återigen, försök inte bli autentisk. Du måste verkligen vara autentisk, bara då händer miraklen. Bara då blir du en storslagen varelse. Då kommer nåden till dig, blessingen. Allt vi har talat blir sanning.
Varför sitter då människor fast? För att ni är osanna. Och därför inte autentiska. Och därför har ni aldrig riktigt sett vad som händer inuti er. Därför behöver ni yttre saker för att hålla igång.
(*) Här sa Bhagavan följande: Not exactly being a factual, that is only up to a point.

090207Oneness
To usher in the oneness age
Unless you really speak the truth, you can not develop this inner integrity to a great extent. What you say is easy, it lacks depth. Only when you start speaking the truth you really know what is going on inside. Not otherwise. You will get to the depths of it, and then the miracles happen. The miracle is that it will take you to the roots. And you will find everything is empty. And therefore you become free of it. The joy that you will discover can not be described. It does not matter what is there. What is authenticity: seeing what is there. Authenticity is seeing what is there: truth is speaking what is there. Not exactly being factual, that is only up to a point. Truth becomes authenticity, external authenticity. First you see and then you speak about it. Seeing is one thing, speaking is another thing and if you will find that the effect is unimaginable. Nothing you need to draw mathematical thereafter. Try it out. Every moment will be a joyous moment in your life: that is enough, you will not ace for anything else in life. You will not say: I want that, I want this, it is actually a joy just seeing what is going on inside. That is all there is to life. What is life? See what is going on inside. Then tell me how it is. Because you are not seeing it, you feel bored. You find life is meaningless, purposeless. Therefore you want this, you want that. So many desires you are creating. But if you were to actually see what is going on, there is such joy; you will not want anything else in life. You could be a beggar, you could be a leper, and you could be a cuter. Nothing will happen. You will just be enjoying every moment in your life. You don’t need money, no name, no fame, nothing, not even security. You would not be afraid of dying also. And strangely life would take care of you. All authentic people are taken care of by life or by god, whatever you want to call it. Inauthentic people will die. If you are authentic and you don’t have food, food will come to you. Somehow it will happen. Somehow you will get a lift. You go where you want to go. Your life becomes miraculous. Because you are inauthentic these things does not happen to you in life. But again, don’t try to be authentic. You must really be authentic, only then miracles will happen. Only then you become a great being. Then the benediction comes on you, the blessing. All that we have spoken becomes truth. Why is it that you are stuck up, because you are untruthful. Therefore inauthentic. Therefore you have really never seen what is going on inside yourself. Therefore you do external things to keep going.
Thank you for joining us.

(Transcript: Thanks to Alexis Shaffer)
Life is Movement, an oscillation between Order and disorder, Light and Shadow, emerging and ceasing.
In the natural order of things, Order, while it moves towards Disorder, could make you move from Oneness to the Division.
As conscious beings, you all have the power. With Deeksha you can make this flow to move again from Division towards Oneness.
In the human body, whenever there is a disconnection of information between various cells, that leads you away from Oneness. The return to Oneness among the various systems of the human body is a return to health.
In the family, whenever there is pain and mistrust, there is a separation from Oneness. A healing of the heart and a flourishing of love is the way to return to Oneness.
Inside you, in moments of conflict between what is right and what is wrong, what should be done and what shouldn’t, there is internal disorder. There is a part of you that you deny; those desires and voices we choose to ignore. This is inevitable and it is part of the human drama. Be all you can be. These divided parts of you need to be healed, they need to be accepted. A return to the internal Oneness is possible by means of the acceptance of life and the experimentation of oneself, without resistance.
When the universal forces bring disorder (in the body, between the various personalities, in the family, in the community of nations and in the various forms of life), there is an opportunity to grow in life towards higher levels of order and Oneness. Remember then, that each challenge that comes in form of disorder and division, is pointing you towards the path to higher levels of order and Oneness. This oscillation is only the infinite dance of creation.
Then, may today’s Diksha be received with the intention to make you conscious of the patterns of order moving towards disorder in every aspect of life. A total and unresisting conscience towards these patterns is Oneness.
Let me repeat : A total and non- resistance acceptance towards these patterns is Oneness.

081226Regression och Tidigare liv
081023Påverkas du av något inom dig men bortom din kontroll?
Vill du uppleva dina tidigare liv?
Regressionsterapi är ett helande instrument. Människor blir ofta helade från kroniska och långvariga problem. Gamla minnen befriar oss från diffusa och även i många fall svåra smärttillstånd.
Regression kan även utlösa minnen av kunskap vi fått i de tidigare liven och även i vissa fall lyfta fram de gudomliga uppgifter som vi har att utföra i detta liv.
Personligen har jag redan från 7 års ålder spontant kommit ihåg många av mina gamla liv.
Jag använder djupavslappning som teknik för att hjälpa klienten att minnas tidigare liv.
När personen är avslappnad och hennes koncentration är så intensiv att hon inte blir distraherad av oljud eller andra störningar i sin närhet befinner hon sig i ett tillstånd av djup avslappning. Klienten kontrollerar själv vad som händer. Jag som terapeut är bara en guide.
För mera information kontakta mig på mobil 070-272 44 88 eller skicka ett mejl på regndroppen@telia.com
Varmt välkommen!

Meddelande från Bhagavan
080902"I and Amma are basically trying to help you out. Sometimes it might appear like we are testing you, but in reality we would be preventing a greater pain from coming to you. Let us say you prayed for a good job and I did not grant it to you, it would only be to save you from some imminent danger or to bless you with something greater.
I love you. I'm here, only because, I love you so much. You're not separate from me. To me, it is not loving someone else, but myself." - Sri Bhagavan
The Oneness Temple opening - a report
080501The consecration of the Oneness Temple, a magnificent structure designed to contribute to the activation and flowering of higher consciousness, took place on the morning of April 22, 2008. Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan appeared in the main hall of the temple at around 8.15 am and bestowed blessings for mental and emotional growth, physical health and higher levels of awareness upon thousands of grateful followers in attendance from all over the world.
Months of planning and considerable human and fiscal resources were invested in the consecration. India's premier event management firm was retained to organize the event. The entire staff of the University was engaged, along with 3,000 trained volunteers and 700 public and private security officers. The University cleared 200 acres adjacent to the Temple as a hospitality lot with water and food for 250,000 each day, including a buffet serving 35,000 in each sitting.
As millions of people follow the teachings and have experienced the grace of our beloved Sri Amma-Bhagavan, we expected large numbers at the Consecration. To effectively manage the crowds, the country was divided by regions, with each region assigned one of the six days to attend. On the 42 acres occupied by the Temple, an orderly cue system was created which included three miles of carpeted and shaded walkways and 1.5 million square feet of covered space. Seven thousand fans kept people refreshed as they waited to enter the Temple.
By our projections, 150,000 people would participate in the opening each day, with one million total by the end of the week. Actual attendance, however, exceeded all possible estimates. During the first 24 hours alone nearly one million traveled to the Temple site. According to the organizers, who have produced dozens of large-scale events, concerts and temple openings involving thousands of people, the response of the public to the opening of the Oneness Temple was unlike anything they have ever seen in the history of their organization.
Sri Amma-Bhagavan, the Acharyas (senior guides) and the Dasas (guides) of the Oneness University were deeply moved by the extraordinary response of the public to the opening of the Temple. However, with new figures projected at least three million by the end of the six days, it became evident that the crowds would be far larger than our facilities could possibly accommodate. In the interest of public safety, the decision was made to postpone and reschedule the opening for smaller groups broken up over several months.
The size of the crowd became unmanageable even for the police and local authorities. As is to be expected from the swell of a crowd that hovered past 500,000 at any given time, our medical team had to provide assistance to some who were affected by exhaustion and heat.
There were no casualties in the Temple grounds. However, we were informed by the police later that day that four casualties had been reported in the vicinity, primarily due to exhaustion and other natural causes. Our love and prayers go out to the families affected by this loss. Sri Amma-Bhagavan, and the Senior Guides and the Guides at the University have offered their condolences and arrangements were made to provide material and financial assistance to those affected.
In the continued interest of safety, all opening events have been postponed and the Temple has been closed to the public until further notice. At this time, only the Oneness Beings are being granted access to the Temple, where they remain meditating and praying for all of us and for the advancement of consciousness in our world. All other events and courses at the Oneness University, India and Fiji campuses will continue as scheduled.
We wish to express our deep gratitude to everyone who joined us for the consecration and most especially to all the Blessing Givers, friends, workers and supporters who invested their time, efforts and resources to make the Oneness Temple a reality. The vision and mission of Sri Amma-Bhagavan is strengthened thanks to your continued cooperation, and we are honored to join with you as co-creators of a better future.
Humanity continues to face complex challenges and struggles, requiring solutions on a global scale. The Oneness community is engaged in the search for those solutions, striving to alleviate suffering, and joining at the heart, where all differences dissolve. Let us march together, with renewed energy and hope, towards an era of freedom, peace and Oneness for all.
Gratitude Day
071122The famous Islamic saint Rabiya was seated in her courtyard in deep ecstasy, singing the praises of God. Just then a man passed by with a cloth tightly wound around his head. Agony and discomfort were evident on his face. Rabiya stopped and asked him what his problem was to which he replied that he was suffering from a splitting headache. She called him by her side and asked him to take off the cloth and prayed for him. He was instantly healed and thanked her for her prayers. As he was about to take leave, Rabiya smilingly asked him, "You were displaying your agony so openly all the while by tying the cloth. How are you going to openly show gratitude now for what the Lord has done to you?"
The man was struck by her words and promised her that he would show his gratitude by singing the Lord’s praises to everyone.
This beautiful story highlights one of the tendencies of the human mind to always highlight suffering and misery excessively to the extent that we often fail to recognize the help, love and kindness that have been shown to us.
Gratitude is to recognize the numerous instances of help and kindness we have experienced, which inevitably helps us realize that life could have never been so without the support of all the people, situations etc. Much of our lives have been spent feeling on what we do not have, failing to realize how much we already have. It is only when you recognize how much you have received over the years that you care less for your losses. When you realize what you are, who you are, your success, your joy, your happiness, your standing in life as a human being, is a coming together of myriad factors and not the outcome of a single individual’s work alone, you are humbled by life. Recognizing this interdependence of all creation is gratitude.
Oneness University observes November 14th each year as the Day of Gratitude, since gratitude according to us is the highest human emotion.
As a token of gratitude towards our family members, friends, colleagues and all those who have been a part of our life, let us dedicate this month recognizing their invaluable presence in our life, in simple acts of life or insignificant moments when they spontaneously reached out to us. Let us also engage ourselves consciously in acts that bring joy to another.
Grundläggande budskap från Oneness University
071107Det grundläggande budskapet från Oneness University i Indien är:
Oneness University är ett universitet för:
lärande/lärdom
växande i alla former/områden i livet, framförallt i relationer och karriär.
Man talar, under processerna i Indien, om den INRE och den YTTRE processen.
I den INRE världen handlar det om att stilla sig och betrakta vad som händer känslomässigt.
Vi kan inte förändra det som är, inte forcera, eller försöka uppleva något annat än det som är.
I den YTTRE världen behöver vi agera, vara aktiva och leda oss själva framåt tillsammans med andra.
Man talar om de 3 stegen för växande som kan appliceras både i den inre och den yttre processen:
1. Stark INTENTION, FOKUS och VISION
2. EGEN INSATS, ta STEG i den riktningen man satt visionen, VÅGA SATSA dvs. att göra det som behövs för att uppnå denna intention/vision.
3. Då kommer NÅDEN, INVITERA bjud in närvaron, och TA EMOT. När vi tar emot nåden efter att ha följt steg 1 och 2 sker underverk, man lyckas med det man föresatt sig - man når sin vision!
Citerar Sri Anandagiriji
"Det är viktigt att ha en stark intention för att växa. Växandet händer inte automatiskt, utan man behöver ha intentionen och därefter göra det som behövs, vilket kan vara att stilla sig när känslorna svallar, att kontemplera, att samtala, att genomföra det som känns jobbigt, etc.
När vi är dedikerade till dessa två första steg, dvs. har en stark intention och gör det som behövs, kommer hjälpen i form av Gudomlig Nåd som den tredje delen".
Anandagiriji menar att man kan mäta växandet genom att observera hur bekväm man känner sig med den man är.
"När du är bekväm med den du är och det som händer i din inre värld, blir du också bekväm med din yttre värld".
How to Heal Relationship Problems by Krishnaraj Dasaji
070608How to Heal Relationship Problems:
A Spiritual Explanation
By Krishnaraj Dasaji – a Dasa (Guide) from Golden City, south India
When having relationship problems, you need to actually start opening up to yourself, because there is a very major part of ourselves that we're not aware of. What we have failed to see about ourselves is a major portion of our lives, and that has to be unveiled and has to be experienced.
Amma Bhagavan's grace will help you unveil it and help you experience it.
People also must know that they're not being subjected to a punishment or some kind of mental torture. It is more like a healing process to help them. This knowledge can help you to actually experience the whole process without resisting or fighting it.
Every time you go through a relationship problem, you actually get to see more of yourself. It's not that you're getting to see something about the other person, you're only getting to see that side of you that is hurt, that which wants love, which wants attention, which cannot forgive, which is not accepted, which feels rejected. It is these things that you are getting to see about yourself when going through a relationship problem.
It is something that you have to process through, otherwise how long can this be kept swept under the carpet--how long can this be suppressed? You have to let Divine Grace put you through this.
Please know full well that you are not being judged or condemned by the Divine when you're being put through such a process. You are only being helped. This is a healing process to help you grow in relationship with the Divine, and grow in love and joy.
As you start accepting all this within yourself, you are truly finally accepting the other person also. All of us tend to think that talking with the other person, or reasoning with them, or applying some principle is going to help us. That is not the truth. You can only know and accept the resistance you have to that relationship.
When you say you have a relationship problem, please understand that you are not having a problem with the relationship or the other person, you are only having a problem within yourself. You are only having a problem accepting all this reality about yourself--that you may be a person who craves attention, who has still not forgiven, who feels guilty about your past, or who is unable to stop hating someone, etc.
The other person is immaterial, and who he or she is isn't what is making you uncomfortable. How you experience him or her within you is the cause of your relationship problem. And that is what has to be experienced. So in every crisis you are only getting to see more of yourself. It has nothing to do with the other person.
As you start facing the truth of your own resistance, it starts the melting of it under the heat of your awareness.

Amma och Bhagavans tal på World Peace Day 070520
070528Amma & Bhagavans tal på World Peace Day 20 maj 2007
Sri Bhagavans tal
"World Oneness Day" kommer att avsluta mänsklighetens lidande. Det skall också markera mänsklighetens frigörelse från det mänskliga sinnet. Det mänskliga sinnet är ett urgammalt sinne och det är det enda sinnet. Det har varit så det senaste 2 miljoner åren. Det är viktigt att ni inser att vi inte kan transformera detta sinne, men vi kan bli fria från detta sinne.
En sådan sak kommer att påbörjas idag. "Oneness Blessing" kommer att skapa en ny generation av människor med en ny åskådning och med ett nytt sätt att vara världsmedborgare, berörda av allt levande på jorden.
Det är ert stora ansvar att få detta att ske. Amma och Bhagavan kommer att ge er en väldigt speciell "Oneness Blessing" där ert medvetande kommer att stiga till sådana nivåer att ni själva blir AmmaBhagavan. När ni väl blivit AmmaBhagavan kommer ni att vara fria från det mänskliga sinnets tyranni. Vad ni kommer att uppleva därefter är villkorslös kärlek, obegränsad glädje och enhetsmedvetande.
Ni kommer att få detta att ske. Vi kommer att ge er denna kraft idag och ni kommer att få detta att ske. Och vi kommer att se början på en ny tidsålder.
Så vi kommer att börja med deekshan väldigt snart efter att Amma har talat på Telugu. Tack så mycket. Tack så väldigt mycket till er alla. Vi känner oss helt ett med er. Ni är i oss: vi är i er. Ni är AmmaBhagavan; vi är AmmaBhagavan.
Sri Ammas tal
När jag ser er alla, blir jag oförmögen att tala av glädje. Idag är en festivaldag för hela världen. Det är begynnelsen på en världstransformation. Ni är alla AmmaBhagavans barn, födda på olika platser och idag har vi fört er till oss igen. Ni tänker alltid på det förflutna, "Åh! Mina tankar är inte OK, mitt beteende är inte OK, kommer AmmaBhagavans gudomliga nåd verkligen att komma in i mig? Kommer vi att bli som AmmaBhagavan?" Ni fortsätter alltid att lida på detta sätt. I kampen för överlevnad, blir oskuldsfullhet, kärlek och värderingar förlorade. Jag är väl medveten om detta tillstånd hos er!
Definitivt, här i detta ögonblick kommer vi att göra er till AmmaBhagavan! När AmmaBhagavan kommer in i er, kommer vi att ge er kraften att se AmmaBhagavan i varenda människa. Därefter, kommer ni att kunna älska varje levande varelse, varje individ. Sådan nåd kommer vi att skänka er!
Därefter, kommer vi att öka Deeksha-kraften i er. Genom er, kommer vi att skapa uppväckta varelser i denna värld. Det är ni som kommer att överföra Oneness Blessings och skapa uppväckta människor. På grund av er, kommer hela världen att väckas upp. Detta är början av den Gyllene Tidsåldern. Amma och Bhagavan kommer att vara med er; vi kommer att vara inom er.
Meddelande från Anandagiriji om Arjunas nya bok
070422Kära Oneness Blessing givare och vänner av Oneness University
Vi är väldigt glada att berätta om publiceringen av "Awakening into Oneness", den nya boken av Arjuna Ardagh, om Oneness Blessing och Sri Amma Bhagavans vision. För att kunna skriva denna bok, intervjuade Arjuna Sri Bhagavan och även Sri Amma, vilket var ett enastående fenomen. Han höll många timmars intervjuer med Sri Anandagiriji och Sri Samadarshiniji och även andra dasas på Universitetet, samt hundratals olika Blessing givare världen över. Boken är fullt godkänd och välsignad av Sri Amma Bhagavan och av oss alla på Oneness University, och vi uppmuntrar alla Oneness Blessing givare att sprida ryktet om denna bok för att underlätta Sri Amma Bhagavans arbete och vision. Boken är redan tryckt och kommer ut i bokhandeln inom ett par veckor.
För att beställa en kopia via Internet, vänligen besök bokens hemsida: www.awakeningintooneness.org. Besök gärna även hemsidan för att kunna läsa utdrag ur boken, och för att se händelseschemat som följer med boken. Om möjligt, beställ gärna din kopia av boken från denna hemsida, då en viss procent av inkomsterna går direkt till utvecklingsprojekten på Oneness University. Arjuna skötte forskandet inför denna bok under första halvan av 2006. Givetvis, är Amma Bhagavans arbete och vision ständigt i förändring och under utveckling, så besök gärna "news and articles" sektionen för att lägga ut nyheter om Oneness Blessing i ditt eget liv och i din tjänst för världen. De som köper boken kommer att hänvisas till denna sida för de senaste nyheterna.
"The Illumination University" är ett nytt Internet-forum grundat av Gay och Kathlyn Hendricks, och gästas av mästar-lärare som Eckhart Tolle, Jean Huston, Neale Donald Walsh och många fler. De har inbjudit Arjuna att hålla den första av många Oneness Tele-Konferenser, i maj. Arjuna har inbjudit många av de celebriteter som intervjuats i boken att medverka i samtalet, och en eller flera dasas från Oneness University kommer också att medverka.
Detta sker onsdagen den 16e maj från 6pm och håller på i två och en halv timma, samt kostar en mindre summa. Vi ber Oneness Blessing givarna världen över att medverka i detta samtal, för att alla kunna ge Oneness Blessing samtidigt till de människor som medverkar. De förväntar sig någonstans mellan 1000-5000 människor att delta. Du kan se mer detaljer om detta samtal inom de närmsta dagarna på: www.illuminationuniversity.com.
Vänligen vidarebefordra detta e-post-meddelande till alla som kan tänkas vara intresserade av denna nya bok eller av tele-konferensen.

Golden Age with divine vibration
SRI BHAGAVAN’S MEDDELANDE – MARCH 7TH, 2007
070306
SRI BHAGAVAN’S MEDDELANDE – MARCH 7TH, 2007
Roten till allt lidande är känslan av separation. Vi har ett splittrat medvetande som förnimmer saker som jag och inte jag, mitt och inte mitt, som mitt och ditt folk, som mitt land och ditt land. Vi känner oss hotade av varandra när allting är splittrat.
Är vi då bortom räddning? Kommer vi att förbli en hop pessimistiska filosofer eller apatiska åskådare som bevittnar vårt kollektiva öde? Inte nödvändigtvis.
Vi som mänsklighet står på gränsen till en fantastisk övergång från separation till enhet. Vi kommer att vakna upp från mörker till ljus, från osanning till sanning. Vi kommer att inse enheten med allt levande.
Även om var och en av oss lever olika liv, placerade på olika ställen i tid och rum, är vi biologiskt, känslomässigt och andligt. en
Det finns bara en kropp. Det som sker med djuren i haven, sker med oss – män och kvinnor. Det som sker med skogarna sker med våra kroppar, eftersom våra kroppar precis som träden är komna från samma jord. Är inte våra kroppar rörligt stoft försedda med intelligens?
En samvetsgrann strävan att hela jorden skulle manifesteras som det ultimata helandet av våra egna kroppar.
Det finns bara ett sinne. Det är sinnet som har strömmat genom våra förfäder och oss och som kommer att fortsätta leva genom våra barn och deras efterkommande. Den kollektiva smärta eller rädsla som våra egna bröder i någon del av världen lidit manifesteras som sovande eller vakna mardrömmar hos någon annan, någon annans stans i världen. Vår glädje och smärta är sammanlänkat i det oändliga. Vi är en och kan inte fortsätta att leva vidare i en illusion av separation.
Det finns bara ett medvetande. Vi lever i ett holografiskt universum. Varje individ som vaknar upp till enhet påverkar automatiskt flera tusen människor och leder dem mot den enda förnuftiga alternativa vägen till att uppleva verkligheten.
När vår upplevelse av verkligheten har förändrats kan vi fortsätta att upptäcka nyare sätt att leva och älska. Vi kan skapa en bättre planet för oss, nu och för framtiden. Detta är vårt delade livsöde.

Guidelines for giving the Oneness Blessing
070211Riktlinjerna finns tillgängliga för genomläsning under Allmän Information
Divine Phenomenon has taken birth in Golden City
061226
Dear Oneness Deeksha Givers,
Namaste!
It gives me utmost joy to inform you of the most recent divine phenomenon that has taken birth here in the Oneness University. This phenomenon, aptly named the 'Oneness Blessing' issues forth from the Srimurthi (portrait) of Sri Amma Bhagavan, which is impregnated with their divine consciousness. Sri Amma Bhagavan have now taken a very special sankalpa (intent) that their Srimurthi transfer a powerful blessing to people that would awaken them to Oneness.
In accordance with their divine will, Deeksha givers pray and gently touch the Srimurthi either at the feet or hands of Sri Amma Bhagavan and ask for a 'Oneness Blessing.' In most cases the blessing is experienced as powerful electric shocks that almost knock down the person or as strong vibrations flowing through the body. The blessing could also be experienced in several other ways like a physical deeksha process (much the same as what is generally felt after receiving a strong Deeksha). In almost all the cases so far, receiving the 'Oneness Blessing' from Sri Amma Bhagavan has immediately produced a shift in consciousness culminating in an altered state that is more or less permanent. Other results include mystical insights and a continuous ongoing Deeksha process within that takes you higher and higher towards love and joy.
So we recommend that all Oneness Deeksha givers receive this great blessing directly from Sri Amma Bhagavan in your own homes daily. The blessing could ideally be taken four times a day i.e. 6.00 a.m., 12.00 noon, 6.00 p.m. and 12.00 midnight. The reason we are fixing up these timings is that when all deeksha givers pray and receive the blessing at the same time in their respective countries, the blessing comes forth very powerfully, since it becomes like a collective phenomenon that is happening at that time. This would also profoundly affect your own countries in a big way. The effects of receiving the 'Oneness Blessing' at the same time is clearly seen in the case of Indian Deeksha givers already. In case of being unable to receive the blessing all four times a day, please join whenever possible; at least two times a day.
At these times of the day, you could sit before the portrait of Sri Amma Bhagavan and invoke their divine presence. Having invoked their presence, you could develop a personal communion with them in your hearts and ask Sri Amma Bhagavan to give you the Oneness Blessing and awaken you to Oneness. In case you are experiencing some emotional disturbances some day owing to the charge in your emotions, you could pray that the charge in the emotion be removed and that you are awakened to Oneness.
Having prayed thus, gently touch the feet or the hands of Sri Amma Bhagavan and wait for some time with your hands on the srimurthi for the blessing to flow through (about a minute or more). You could first touch Sri Amma and then move on to touch Sri Bhagavan or vice-versa or you could choose to place your hands on both of their feet/hands simultaneously; please follow whatever comes to you naturally. Having received the blessing thus, you could thank Sri Amma Bhagavan and if possible move into shavasan and relax for some time. This blessing would come forth from all the portraits of Sri Amma Bhagavan, including the Sri Amma Bhagavan medallions/pendants.
We would be very happy to receive a feedback of your experiences with the 'Oneness Blessing'.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Thank you,
Ever at the Lotus feet of Sri Amma Bhagavan, Purnima
Oneness Prayers/Oneness Deekshas
061130
Dear Deeksha Givers,
Namaste!
We pray this letter finds every one of you in good health and happiness. The vision of the Oneness Movement and Deeksha have opened up to many more thirsting seekers this year, thanks to the efforts of everyone of you in organizing beautiful 'Deeksha givers conferences' in different parts of the world! With the growing acknowledgement to the Oneness Movement worldwide, there have also been increasing requests to adapt certain aspects of the Oneness Movement to the local cultures, to facilitate better understanding on the part of the new-comers. One of the key aspects that have featured in these requests is the name 'Deeksha' itself, which constitutes an integral part of the movement. The process of trying to identify a new term that would serve as an ideal counterpart for 'Deeksha', merge with the local culture and at the same time preserve the innate sanctity of the process itself has been on for the last few months.
We are very happy to announce that with the blessings of Sri Amma Bhagavan, the process of 'Deeksha' would henceforth be known as 'Oneness Prayer' in the western world and as 'Oneness Deeksha' in the eastern world. This decision has been arrived at after considering numerous factors involved, particularly the culture and tradition of every nation. We hope and pray to Sri Amma Bhagavan that many more lives are touched & liberated by the Oneness Prayers/Oneness Deekshas offered by you this forthcoming year. The guides of the Oneness University extend our heartiest greetings in advance for a merry Christmas and a very prosperous and happy New Year 2007!
Thank you,
Ever at the Service of Sri Amma Bhagavan,
Guides of the Oneness University, India.
Celebrate the beginning of the Fifth DAY

Celebrate the beginning of the Fifth DAY: November 24, 2006
by Carl Johan Calleman
We are currently approaching the beginning of the Fifth DAY of the Galactic Underworld, November 24, 2006 and most people have experienced how things have heated up since the midpoint of the current NIGHT, May 27, 2006. In fact, the evolution of consciousness is fundamentally driven by the Light of future Heavens and Underworlds and so we are already now being influenced by it both in the form of world events and personal experiences.
In each of the Underworlds the Fifth DAY is the era of the breakthrough of the phenomena of that particular Underworld and from this we may have certain expectations of what is to come. The overall purpose of the current Galactic Underworld is to bring a balance between East and West as well as between the left rational and the right intuitive brain hemispheres. In short, as it will mean a significant downfall of western dominance in the world it will allow for the coming together of the cultures of the East and the West. Very likely, it will generate a downfall of the American dollar and ensuing altered economic relationships in the world.
It also seems as if the DAYS are the periods that bring the most earth changes and natural catastrophes and this will very likely also mark the coming DAY, November 24, 2006 – November 19, 2007. It simply seems as if when human beings are regaining their inner wholeness their control of the external world as a consequence is lost and the Fifth DAY is exactly such a period, which will create the conditions for such inner unity and wholeness. Part of the development of this inner wholeness will come from a major step forward in the development of our intuition which essentially is mediated by the right brain half that is now about to be strengthened. In fact, without the development of this intuition we will not be able to use the increasingly shorter windows of opportunity that in different ways will be presented to us.
What there is to do is to fully accept and embrace the very significant energy shift that is now brought by the beginning of the Fifth DAY and I recommend people everywhere to celebrate on November 23-24 the arrival of the energy of Quetzalcoatl as part of the Breakthrough Celebration (www.breakthroughcelebration.com).
The Fifth DAY energy of the Galactic Underworld means that its manifestations will truly break through into the world and after this it will become apparent to everyone that we will never again return to the stable materialist mind set of the lower Planetary Underworld. We must welcome the shift that is now taking place in the global energy field and the opportunity it gives us to create balance between East and West, rationality and intuition and man and woman. For most people the Breakthrough Energy of the Fifth DAY will be the most powerful transformative energy that they experienced as part of the divine plan. Let us celebrate and prepare together and above all be conscious of the changes that we may now expect based on the Mayan calendar.

100 Village Project
060815
100 Village Project
The 100 villages project is a project to spiritually awaken about 70,000 villagers in the mandal of varadayapalem in chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, where the global headquarters of the Oneness University is located.
Five years ago this was a notorious area. It was acclaimed for every form of anti- social activity. Drinking, wife beating, physical strife, corruption, communal feud and every conceivable brutality were rampant here. When we first stepped on the soil, people surrounded the vehicle and issued a warning to quit the place. They were dead against any reformist invasion into their dominion. The well- wishers admonished us saying that we were landing ourselves into very deep trouble. However this was the land that was destined.
In a short time the world head-quarters for the Oneness Movement was inaugurated at the foot hills of Velikonda Range, Siddharanyam; the mountain range that envelops the Varadaiahpalem Mandal with in itself. Worldwide people call it 'The Golden City'.
The next two years served as a preparation for launching 'the Deeksha'. The year 2003 saw regular Deeksha programs at the premises of the Oneness University, Golden city. Here scores of villagers who were already awakened to their inner truth through regular spiritual classes came seeking for a higher state of consciousness and communion with the divine. A spiritual revolution was in the reckoning.
A significant day in the history of Varadaiahpalem was August 24th 2005. Sri Bhagavan addressed over three thousand villagers who had assembled to receive deeksha in His presence. The call for enlightenment was renting the air
Sri Bhagavan's message on that eventful day.
If the world has to make its transit into the Golden Age, then India must have made it. For this nation to make it, 100 villages must make it to enlightenment. And you are the people belonging to these 100 villages. The day you become one family a year from thence this nation would be a different place. Therefore the work of transforming this nation and the world lies in your hands.
Though global transformation is their vision, Amma and Bhagavan are focused on the 75,000 odd people who live around them. As enunciated in Sri Bhagavan's message, these villages would be a power station transmitting enlightenment across the globe. The project to enlighten these villagers began in right earnest in the June of 2006. An army of enlightened guides and villagers are marching forth into every village giving deekshas. What is happening is a spectacle of grace. Saints and sages are being shaped out of ordinary men and women. Spiritual knowledge is not synonymous with the intellectual acumen of an individual. It reflects the evolution of one's consciousness.
Usually people realise the truth of their own belief through a direct experience. But what about these people whose consciousness is not contaminated by any philosophical thought? They speak what they 'see' - that which is a reality to them though they have no knowledge frames into which they could fit their experiences. 'Wisdom' or 'Gnosis' is a property of consciousness not the mind. Let us look into a few of them.
According to Sri Bhagavan, "Happiness is the index of development". When man is intrinsically happy, the society that he creates naturally exuberates a sense of co-operation and sharing. When man is unhappy he creates an environment, which is detrimental to the well being of the community. This truth is now being perceived in many a family in these surroundings. Miraculous de-addictions, family reunion, togetherness, respect for women, prosperity and higher standards of living, education have become the identity of this new emergent society. With a change of perception their lives too are changing. Breaking all parameters, Deeksha is reaching out to the most unreachable quarter in the planet in terms of social, economic or intellectual dispositions. Their gleaming faces are beacons of hope for mankind.

Namaste;
We all wish you lots of Grace for your ongoing deeksha journey.
It is important that the people of Sweden, for that matter every follower of this movement understand the vision of Amma & Bhagavan. It is equally important especially for those involved in the growth & development of this
movement to share the vision of its founders.
Here in India, Bhagavan has been taking every precaution to ensure that this movement does not become cultish. And there in the west, it is up to the people to ensure the same.
Spiritual power & Spiritual Authority does not lie in the hands of a few chosen people. Amma & Bhagavan have given this power to the respective people. While the power of transformation is housed in Amma & Bhagavan, this power is accessible to all the participants of the 21-day mukti process.
This group must shoulder the responsibility of transforming the world and establishing the Golden Age. It must be clearly understood that there are no leaders in this group.
Nobody is expected to work under somebody or for somebody. All are spiritual helpers and our only leaders are Amma & Bhagavan. The spiritual helpers are expected to come together and work for the good of man & not gather to glorify another human being. It is also very important that one does not assume too much self importance & fail to acknowledge the source of all the power and grace we enjoy. We must respect the great gift bestowed upon us by Amma & Bhagavan. Lack of gratitude & a failure to acknowledge the source will only widen the gulf between you & the source of this phenomenon & then eventually result in the loss of this precious gift.
While Amma & Bhagavan will protect this phenomenon from another level, it is up to people like you to ensure the safety of the movement.
You can always look forward to us for any further clarification or guidance.
People are expected to come to gather for the good of man, not to gather around another human being.
At the Beloved Service of Amma & Bhagavan;
Pragyanand
