to Mexico the premies took me all around and showed me their beautiful churches. I saw perfect devotion, no questions asked, and that devotion also helps you. Many people have experienced Mother Mary in that form. Many people have experienced Christ in their consciousness.
At the Kumbha Mela there is a person who worships Christ. He is a ‘baba’ but he follows all the esoteric practices of this faith and he has experiences. I haven’t had the chance to meet him personally but I have heard about him. When people asked him, “Why Jesus?” he said a very beautiful thing. He said, “You see, Jesus was like us. He was born in this world but he realised his true Self. And what change did it bring into his life? When he realised his true Self and pure awareness and pure consciousness flowed into him, what did he say? ‘I and my Father are one’, meaning that all dualities had ceased to exist and that ‘I and my Father’ – meaning the cosmic spirit – had become one. That means he became of Christ consciousness. After he realised himself, Jesus became Christ, not before. He was born as Ysu, Jesus. In India a lot of people believe in him, a lot of people believe in Mother Mary. We call Moses ‘Musa’. So he believed that and he said, “I meet Jesus whenever I want”, because his devotion is one-pointed, there is no duality.
So there are two paths and both have their advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of following the ‘gyan’ path is that it is quicker, it is faster because a lot of things have already been prepared for you and it is given to you. Like Knowledge is given to you. It is not based on our experiences, it is based on other people’s experiences but the doubt is removed. But it also has a disadvantage: unless and until we have experienced it we don’t understand the importance of it. Just like when a toy is given to us when we are small, we don’t understand the importance of it until we behave in a certain manner and it is taken away from us. Then we cry for it because we understand what it meant to us. It is the same with Knowledge. When we don’t understand or appreciate its true importance, when it doesn’t have any effect on us or it is taken away from us, then we repent, because then we face the suffering of the world and we realise what the path of Knowledge meant to us.
The only disadvantage of the path of bhakti is that it takes too long, in focussing on the world and getting it down to one point, because the distractions are manifold. The world will tempt you in many different ways and to keep yourself focussed totally on anything, on Jesus or Prophet Mohammed or on Mother Mary or on Krishna or on Rama or on Hanuman or any of the deities is very difficult to do constantly. But the people who have done it reap the same benefits because both these paths will take us to God.
But the Knowledge given by Satguru helps us to combine these two paths into one. When Ida and Pingala combine, Sushumna is formed and Sushumna is the perfect channel for your energy to rise. It will reach the crown lotus and once that is pierced you are no longer bound, but that stage is reached only by mahayogis, maharishis. Not even munis and sants, no. This is reached by very great people, where there is no distinction between them and God, like Jesus. He broke through all these barriers. In a single lifetime. Buddha broke through all these barriers. They were also faced with human choices, with human sufferings, but because they had Truth inside them and they had the will to not leave the Truth no matter what happened, they achieved their goal. Buddha was not born Buddha, he was Siddhartha, but when he realised the true consciousness inside himself he became Buddha, the Enlightened One. And what he told people was that they can also become Buddha. So many disciples after Buddha became buddhas also. The story goes that Milarepa in Tibet removed demons from the world. He controlled them and used them for the good of the world. That is also what? Channelizing the negativity within you and using it for the good of the world.
We all have our own demons inside us. We may be haunted by the past, and it can limit us and hold us back from what we want to do. The techniques will be given to you when you are ready, but it is only through meditation that you can realise Truth. The rest – all that I’ve said in the two days since I’ve met you – is just words. Nothing more. Real experience, real manifestation will start when you start your individual journey. I mean, these are just guidelines. They are things that encourage us to take that step. Otherwise if there’s no encouragement we would never even be here. Imagine, you’ve made this huge journey from your homes to over here because you were encouraged to do so. You must have met Maharaj Ji over there and you were encouraged to know more. When we meet great souls in our lives we are encouraged to do the right thing. When we meet saints we are touched by their love and we are inspired to be like them. It can happen anywhere.
