Newsletter #10, by Denise (4 Aug, 2012)

Dearest friends,

I would like for us to share the following message in our next weekly online meditation session – Swamiji’s Dussera message for a Year of Awakening, dated the 6th of October 2011. I feel it is ideal for us to re-read Swamiji’s message at this moment, as we are being invited on a grand collective level to join the monthly Mega-Meditations (Maha-Dhyan).

We are at a point in time where humanity is being summoned and invited to develop spiritually in order to have the opportunity to break free from modern day ills and problems. These grand meditations which take place in the presence (at the soul level) of our Sadguru and all the Gurus in the Himalayas is an open door for us to deepen our journey within and truly experience and obtain what we are here on earth for. Are we grabbing this opportuntiy like a diamond in our hands?

Swamiji says: ‘The need of the hour is to have relationships at the inner-soul level’.

Let’s introspect every day. Are we reminding ourselves that we are souls, and not only bodies? Can we actually break free from our attachment of focusing on thoughts, problems, worries and all matters related to the body? Can we fully trust that we will be taken care of by meditating and thus be able to focus more and more on our spiritual practice?

Can we come together and decide that, ‘yes, I am a pure and holy soul’ and in this way help this collectivity of souls strengthen?

Let’s share our feelings on this, as well as any tips we have for reminding ourselves that we are souls and making those inner soul feelings grow.

With love,

Denise

FOCUS FOR THE WEEK – Dussera Message for a Year of Awakening (6‐10‐2011)

My Salutations to all Pious Souls…..

Today is the holy festival of Dussera and it is an excellent and auspicious day as it has arrived on the holy ‘Thursday’.

The need of the hour is to have relationships at the inner‐soul level, because ‘soul‐level’ collectivity cannot be created without the inner‐soul feeling; and Moksha (liberation) is not possible without this soul‐level feeling.

This is because meditation in collectivity by souls is the only possible path for it while one lives in society. At present we have managed to reach ‘collective meditation’, but that is only at the physical level because all of us have different objectives for taking up meditation. We are all meditating in order to obtain something.

However, we wish to obtain it because we are tied to our physical bodies and meditate with expectations at the physical level. It is at this level that we have meditated for the past 12 years and fulfilled our desires. But desires are unending; our life may end but desires have no end.

However, after observing all these situations the Guru‐Energies have expressed a desire for collective ‘Mega‐Meditation’ (Maha‐Dhyan). By ‘Maha Dhyan’ we refer to meditation which can be held in the collectivity of lakhs of sadhaks (seekers) who have no objective of obtaining anything and only wish to lose themselves.

Inner soul‐level feelings will develop in lakhs of souls when they get together with a similar ‘feeling of surrender’ and meditate collectively, because (at that time) there will neither be a feeling of the physical body nor the requirement of a physical body.

There will be a collectivity of souls in the ‘Maha‐Dhyan’ because all the sadhaks will mediate only for spiritual progress, and this will be their only objective.

Come! Let us start this kind of Mega‐Meditation right from 11th October 2011. This Mega‐Meditation will increase the inner soul‐level feelings amongst the sadhaks. Therefore all the souls who wish to obtain Moksha in this lifetime and who don’t have anything left to be obtained are invited to take part in this meditation. All progress is a part of ‘spiritual progress’.

Moksha is not the name for obtaining but for giving. ‘Moksha can be obtained only after one gives it’. The Guru‐Energies have placed my life before you as an example.

In my life I have obtained everything, only after giving everything. There is no attraction or attachment for it, and there is no fear of losing it either, because my chitta (attention) is not present in all these things. This is my experience. The Guru just can’t keep anything with him because lakhs of souls are benefited from it. You too can join the ‘Maha‐Dhyan’ and surrender yourself and awaken the ‘Guru’ inside you.

This is the ‘Year of Awakening’ and we have to awaken our souls during this year. In this year, the work is happening in collectivity and so it will be easier to awaken our souls. Therefore, in this Year of Awakening, the Maha‐Dhyan shibir is being started to awaken your souls.

These Maha‐Dhyan shibirs will bestow you with inner‐peace and security in your life. You will progress spiritually through these shibirs. All that you have to do is to join in it, not at the physical level but with a totally pure feeling, because everything is dependent only on your pure and holy feelings.

My Best Wishes to all of you on the occasion of Dussera. May this auspicious festival bring about a new spiritual revolution in your lives.

With lots and lots of Blessings to all of you,

Yours,

Baba Swami
