God manifests Himself to teach humility..... Sri Swami Vishwananda Your True Identity is humility..... The Divine will never address you as a praise!; The Divine... will never praise you - whereas the ego will always praise you..... All of you are One and if you see it in that way you cross over the mind... Swamiji All the Saints..... they didn´t become Saints just like this, by sitting not doing anything or by criticising everybody else. They had faith. They had trust. In whom? More than in themselves, they had trust in God. And through that trust they learned to accept every moment..... Often, people see mostly the negative in other people. They don´t see the positivity. So behind all that - the Soul is God. That´s what Christ said “The least you do to my brothers, you do it onto me! “ Even Krishna said it in the Gita “The one, the true yogi, sees Me everywhere and knows that I am the only present God which is in every action which is working through everything“....so it´s God manifesting through His creation. Why then is it difficult for spiritual people to perceive this? He is the One doing everything. You can just surrender. You can just say “Hold my hand and bring me.” All the Saints which are around here, they didn´t become Saints just like this, by sitting not doing anything or by criticising everybody else. They had faith. They had trust. In whom? More than in themselves, they had trust in God. And through that trust they learned to accept every moment.; You see, in life different people are called for different things and they are put accordingly where they have to be. God guides each step of each person. Each thought you have, it is He who put it there. Each step that one takes, He is the One guiding the person. What is important is that one has to learn to be patient and see. One has to be in tune and wait for that. swamivishwananda-info.blogspot/2013/12/st-nicholas-feast-day-celebrations-part_11.html This God-given Light Body is who you are in Essence..... Sri Swami Vishwananda The Divine... will never praise you - whereas the ego will always praise you..... And the Divine voice you will hear when you are very calm, whereas the ego you will hear always! It will be always there to flatter you to tell you:You are the best!; Its really very important to self-analyse the inner voice that you have inside of you, wheather this voice is flattering you or really is bringing you towards the Divine. Towards the Divine - is through the humility. Sri Swami Vishwananda youtube/watch?v=COlqRDN6RgY Satsang with Sri Swami Vishwananda in Warsaw 2010, part IV ... if you are sincere He manifests...... He can’t make you love Him...... It’s up to you. It is only you who has this choice. If you want to change, you will change. If you don’t want to change, you won’t change, but you have the choice. This He will not do. The Master will never do this for you..... But, if you really humble yourself and really be pure in your heart and really cleanse your mind, then you will see that He can remove all the karmic things just like that..... ...So, in this reading of the Gospel you see the Crucifixion of Jesus, but before the crucifixion, He had given many commandments to His Disciples. Above all, the commandment that He gave to the Disciples was to Love. How many times in this small piece has He been talking about Love? Many times, not twice, but many, many times He spoke about Love in it. And He also shows the non-duality of the Self, of being One with the Father. Because we are bound by the dualistic aspect of the body, we are limited. He even said it “Whoever loves me, they are with me and I am with them and they are with the Father and the Father is with them.” So, if He is with the Father, the Father is also with them, so there is no duality. That means that whoever loves, they are One with God. But this word Love, very often we take it for granted. We are like little Judases, you know, who love God for His gifts, who love God always for something. How many times do you really love God for the sake of loving Him and not asking anything? Always we ask God for something, but He is not bound by anything. He is not saying not to ask. He says ask, yes, until really you ask what it is you are here for. And why you are here is to Realise this Love. And when you Realise this Love that you have inside, you transcend everything and all becomes One. There is no duality that separates you from the Father. All the practices that you are doing, your meditation, your Kriya, all you are doing is for what? It’s to Realise your Self, no? But many people think they are Realised and they become very arrogant and they are the ones who judge everybody. They are the ones who say “Oh, this is right; this is wrong.” He said it. It is part of the Gospel. Jesus said: The Father is present everywhere, in everything. It is not up to me to say it, but you will know about it. If you just take this part of the Gospel and you meditate only on that, you will have a whole truth in it – especially about Love. I always talk about love, love, love, always, you know. It is true that the world doesn’t yet know about it. And yet, you are working for that, all of you who are spiritual, all of you who are searching for the truth. It is not outside, it is here inside of you, but you have to want to change. You have to really say “Yes, I want to change.” Like He said: Even if you want to change, the world will be against you. It’s perfectly true! Ask yourself in your life, in your own life itself, when you took the spiritual path, how many people became against you–firstly in your own family? So, it is normal. The more you advance towards the light, the others will be jealous, because inside everybody wants that. Everybody wants to be with the Father. Everybody wants to be close to the Divine, but, yet, they don’t want to make any effort. They don’t want to make any change to their life. They want to get everything happily and for free. So, if you want this really and sincerely, then be sincere towards yourself and ask the Father. Ask God and you will have it. It’s simple.
