Questions and Answers

Questions and Answers.


Question.

What is human life on planet earth ?

 

Answer.

Planet Earth is a place where souls come to achieve enlightenment, to know of their extended, universal, and absolute Self: The Self in All.

The soul is given multitudes of lives with which to experiment with all varieties of desires, until eventually, the soul decides to climb the spiritual ladder - The Pathway to Illumination.

This is the marvellous quality and goal of human life. With sincere and genuine searching and a little prayer, everbody can find their hearts desire.

For lasting peace, happiness, understanding, and enlightenment, make Self-Realization your goal. This is the true goal of every soul.

 

 


Question.

What is the purpose of Christmas ?

 

Answer.

The celebration of the reality of enlightenment. We celebrate the man Jesus, his search, his path, his teachings, and ultimately his enlightenment - Christhood - union of the animal man (the lower chakras) with the celestial spirit (the higher chakras).

Every enlightenment is a celebration in it's own right.

May all beings be happy.

Question.

Can the study and practice of Yoga lead me to God ?

[laughter]

 


Question.

What happens when we die ?

 

Answer.

First find out who the 'I' is - who is this 'I', this experiencer, then you will know the answer to this question.

 


Question.

Can you give me the answer now ?

 

Answer.

The "I" is the Self in All, the Absolute, unborn and undying witness. Consciousness without name or form. But you must realise this on an experiential level, you must feel it in every cell of your body. Then you will have no doubts.

 

 


Question.

What is this spiritual ladder that you keep referring to ?

 

 

Answer.

The 'Spiritual Ladder' is the system of techniques that the aspirant uses to overcome all the obstacles of avidya - the ignorance of one's own true nature. This ladder could also be likened to a cake recipe. We follow the instructions and achieve the desired result.

 

 


Question.

Who are you?

 

Answer.

I am the cake eater and also the cake!

 

[laughter]

 

 


Question.

Can you tell me who I am ?

 

Answer.

Oh yes, I can do that, but you might not believe me. You must have the realisation yourself.

 


Question.

What is the name of your God ?

 

Answer.

[pause]

Jallah Bamboostockings ! It is good to talk to him as often as possible!

 


Question.

You talk about choosing our thought-forms and mastering the wandering mind. What thought forms should I choose?

 

Answer.

Those that are full of greatness and bring everybody closer to Godliness. For example, "May All Beings Be Happy".

 

 


Question.

I am afraid of death, how can I overcome this obstacle?

 

Answer.

Death happens to every - body. All the bodies eventually are re-integrated into nature. Find out who the occupier of the body is. Answer the question "Who am I", then you will not fear the phenomenom that we have labelled 'death', and you will also not fear the phenomenom that we have labelled 'life'. They are both processes that happen in your mind - O Holy and Eternal One!

 


Question.

I am completely lost, please can you help me see the light ?

 

Answer.

The further the distance from the light, the darker things appears to be.

 


Question.

How can I, as a genuine yogic practioner, induce interest in others concerning yoga, Self-Realization and thus enlightenment ?

 

Answer.

You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink. Arousing interest in Self Realisation is similar to growing a crop. If the soil is fertile and the ground is well prepared, then there will be good results.

The candidate must have some degree of intrinsic (internal) interest. Every single soul eventually becomes intrinsically motivated in enlightnment - often after many, many lives suffering and misery!

Intrinsic motivation - that is the key.

You can offer your service, but you cannot expect anybody to respond. The law of resistance informs us that "for every force, there is an equal yet opposite force." Never force.

Strangely enough, some people are not interested in enlightenment.

Well, not yet!

 

 


Question.

My whole life seems like a failure. My upbringing, conditioning, and state of mind have made myself and others miserable. What can I achieve with the time left to me ?

 

Answer.

If you can bring some light into the world, however small, then do so. Shift your focus away from your ego-centric misery and work towards the improvement of conditions for the all the generations of souls that are arriving each day. It is just this egocentric world view that has brought you misery in the first place.
