Only when you let yourself
say, “God, I have tried everything. Now I abandon myself with all my
expectations, completely, to you.” Then you’ll see the light. The light will
reveal itself to you, because the light is yourself.
However, the mind always
covers it with perishable things, thinking this is the reality. So, abandon
yourself completely – body, mind and soul. Just let go of it! Let go of this
small egoism that says “I am this, I am that.” What is this ‘I’? Have you known
this ‘I’? Have you realised this ‘I’? – No! As long as you have not realised
this ‘I’, you can’t move forward. Why give much importance to something that
you don’t know? What is so great about this egoistic ‘I’? Thinking this is the
whole? It’s not. That’s what the cross stands for. Cut the ‘I’, and let only
the Divine act. So when this egoistic ‘I’ disappears, what remains? The ‘I’
still stays, but this ‘I’ is a universal ‘I’, the ‘I’ without any identity of
oneself. The ‘I’ which is equal in each one of you.
And this is the ‘I’ that
Jesus spoke of: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the light.” It is the ‘I’ of the
consciousness, the ‘I’ of the Christ consciousness that leads mankind. Yes,
each one of you. This consciousness is in each one of you. It’s waiting to
become active. It’s very good that you come for darshan, very good that you sit
for meditation. But you should not only do it now, you have to do it always! By receiving the blessing
– prana hooti, it’s called – you are receiving and activating the light within
you. That’s what I can do for you; the rest is up to you. I can take the food,
crush it to puree and put it in your mouth, but I can’t swallow it for you. I
will be happy to do it for you, you know? But this part is up to each one of
you. Your question will be, “We keep trying, yet nothing happens?” But what I
said before, remember that – I said if you try with an expectation, it can
never happen. You have to empty your mind completely. The thought will pass by,
let it pass – don’t feed it. You are not the mind, you are not the thought; you
are more than that.
You are
the child of God. You are part of the Divine creation. So make this your
achievement. Make this your goal in life. Wherever you are, remind yourself of
this goal.
