Notes 14-Sep

 1. When there is any pain in physical body, you can do two things- mind it or not mind it. Minding it increases the pain and you suffer along with the body. Not minding the pain in the body makes you an observer of the pain in the body and the intensity of the pain reduces.

 

2. The "not minding" is a feeling which frees you from all feelings.  It frees you from all the likes and dislikes that comes from the mind.

 

3. Likes and dislikes are natural that comes from mind when there is negativity in it.

 

4. Just like evaporating sea water to get pure salt, we must heat the mind with tapas and all the negativities will be evaporated to get pure You.

 

5. Mind's natural quality is to attach to various things on earth. It creates happiness and sorrow.

 

6. Whoever allows material things to occupy the mind is a materialistic person.

 

7. Realising and accepting the truth as it reduces sufferings. We should not be too serious towards incidents/circumstances. One should introspect and check whether the level of seriousness is reducing.

 

8. Mukti is an individual experience. We must get mukti when we are living in this body itself. It is not possible to do so when we lose the body after death.

 

9. Intellect works beyond likes and dislikes. When we are free from negativities, intellect can work without any interference from the mind. Intellect is  from Parabrahma (Guru saakshaat parabrahma).

 

10. Intellect has the capacity to know what is right and wrong. Mind has likes and dislikes. Suppose a screen has to be put up, intellect knows that it needs a cloth. The mind which has likes/dislikes would like specific color/designs.

 

11. When we remove  the mind, all memories are lost hence suffering is also not there. Only mind memory is lost, whereas brain memory remains.

 

12. The energy drawing capacity is directly proportional to the love towards the Master.  If one can follow everything what Master tells, then one is loving the Master.
