Maitreya:
Welcome to the Mission of
Maitreya’s Satsang room and
our cyber church. This is Maitreya. I will be
studying with you for the next two hours. Hopefully, we will
learn from each other. And, we will learn that the last
Revelation of God has come to earth, the religions are unified, and
the prophecies are fulfilled. All expectations from all
religions have been fulfilled here, and we have brought the
Revelation of God for humanity.
This is the time of sundering.
This is the time for humanity to see who is for God and who is
against God, so they can make their decisions. The
Kingdom will come after each person makes their own decision of
following the Eternal Divine Path, which is the base of our
teachings, or following their traditions, religions, backgrounds,
cultures, or whatever keeps them from seeing the truth in the
Mission’s teaching and the unification of all the religions on
earth.
This is the time that every person
has to hear this Message at least once. That is why we are
trying to reach all of humanity in all levels, in every corner of
the earth. God has provided us with the tools
to do that. The whole world can hear our Voice and see us on
the Internet, and know that the last Revelation has come.
No other Prophet ever had all these
tools available to them, and no other Prophet had so many people
being so highly educated and so highly trained to be able to
accomplish much more than any other people ever could have done, to
this point. So we can see that we have many opportunities and the ability to reach out and give this Message to
every human.
I am not here to give you experiences
as the people in the Mystical Paths probably can give you, because
the Mystical Paths are not the ultimate, as we will see.
I am
not here to teach you how to live in the Communities of Light,
because you have been living in the Communities of Light for
many lifetimes and hopefully, you know by now how it works to live
in a Community of Light. And that means not being
self-centered, being able to sacrifice for it, surrendering and
submitting to the Will of God, and becoming a universalist.
I am not here to teach you how to
sacrifice, because you have sacrificed before, and you have learned
how to sacrifice. You will know how that works because you
have done it in many lifetimes.
I am not here to teach you how to
surrender and submit to God. That Prophet Muhammad brought to
you and taught you to do. You probably were with him, and you
learned how to do that.
And, I am not here to teach you how to
become a universalist. That was brought by Bab and
Baha’u’llah. They taught us how to become universalists.
We are looking for the Elects, the
people who have awakened their spiritual forces for many lifetimes,
they know how to live in the Communities of Light, and, they
love to live in the Communities of Light. They are
ready to sacrifice for them, surrender and submit, and become a
universalist. So, they become an Elect.
I am a Way Shower, the Explainer, the
Unifier, who has brought all of this to you so that you can see the
Plan of God in full. The Plan of God in full has been revealed
through this
Mission.
This full manifestation on earth has come after 12,000 years of
being hidden. Now all the truth has come to us. Now
it is the decision of all humans: Do they want to teach this
teaching, or do they want to follow their own teaching, or
tradition, or cultures, or genders, or race, or wherever they are
at...?
You have to drop all of them. If
you have a tradition, if you have a gender, if you have a culture,
if you have a religion, you cannot follow the Eternal Divine Path
completely. If you are not following the Eternal Divine
Path completely, you cannot be an Elect. You will become a
lukewarm and will not completely manifest God.
This is a call to the
Elects, a call to those who see this teaching in full and say, “I
have no culture. I have no tradition. I have no gender.
I have no attachment to anything that keeps me from seeing this
Vision in full.”
Therefore, you can see that this is a
great Revelation that makes sense. It has a lot of truth in
it. But, the decision is yours.
As always, God has given every person
the free will to make the decision. You make the decision but
what the result is going to be, is God’s, because God
told us what He wants us to do. Now, if we do not follow His
Will, we are following our will, therefore, the result is created by
going against the Will, which will lead us to Pure Consciousness, or
Godhead, or Nirvana, or Oneness with God, or return home. You
can call it many names and words, but the end is the same.
The Path is the Eternal Divine Path.
The Eternal Divine Path consists of five steps and two
results. The first step is: Awakening your spiritual
forces. Awakening your spiritual forces covers all the
Mystical Paths on earth. No matter what the path is, where it
is in the world, if it teaches you to, “Know thyself to know God,”
that is a part of the Mystical Paths.
So, that covers Hinduism, Buddhism,
Cabbala, Mystical Christianity, Sufism, and any other “ism” or
teaching that teaches, “Know thyself,” because the self, the atman,
in each person, is the same as God. You have the Essence of
God in you. Even Christ said, “Thou are gods.” You are
gods, of course, with the small “g.” You did not create the
universe. A lot of people have become very egoistical, and
they say, “I am God.”
OK, did you create the universe?
Are you manifesting the compassion, love, understanding, and beauty
of God through yourself, and do you have The Grace? Just
knowing you have the Essence does not mean that you are God (with
the big “G”). Only God with the big “G” created the universe.
You are a co-creator.
You are in the image of God, therefore,
you have to realize that although we are gods, with a small “g,” we
still have to listen to the God, with the big “G,” so that we can
return to the Godhead and not become more egoistical and fall from
The Grace.
That is because the only thing that
keeps us from The Grace is the ego, really. Ego is something
that we are holding on to like an umbrella over the top of our
heads, and we are not letting The Grace of God come through.
The Grace of God is always showering
us. He has no choice. He is so full of Grace that He
loves to give it away. But, who is willing to receive it?
That is the real question.
As long as we have the ego at the top
of our head like an umbrella and say, “No, no, no, I am going to
follow my own teaching, my own will, my own culture, and my own
religions,” then we never can come to God’s culture, God’s religion,
and God’s truth. So, we have to overcome that ego that keeps
us from completely seeing this Vision, surrender and submit to it,
and teach it to others.
It has been taught. The Gospel of
God,
The Holiest Of The Holies (THOTH), has
been read to humanity through our Internet room, in this room, every
day. It has been discussed in many places. The Book is
available to all.
There is a lot of effort that is
being put out all around to reach humanity and to bring this to
every human to hear it. That is because all the humans have to
hear this teaching once, and then we are done with them. It is
their decision if they want to see the truth in it or not.
This is not a cult. It is God’s
Revelation; it is God’s Truth. We do not keep you here if you
do not want to be in the Mission. We leave you
to God. And hopefully, eventually, a lot of people will see
the truth in it, come together, create Communities of Light,
and create the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth.
Therefore, the first step in the
Eternal Divine Path is to awaken our spiritual forces: Meditate, know thyself, concentrate. Look at yourself to see,
“What are my habits? What is my resistance to God’s Will?
What is it that makes me not want to listen to God, but I want to
listen to my own will, wishes, desires, and attachments, but I do
not want to completely say, ‘No, I do not want to be the slave of my
little ego, but I want to be surrendered and submit to God
completely?’”
So, that is knowing thyself. How
to do it? Some people close their eyes. They meditate.
They do formal meditation. That is the fastest way because you
are closing all of your senses. All of your senses are like
five strong, powerful horses that are pulling you toward the
external world.
What do we do? We see first
before we desire, don’t we? Or, we hear first, before we
desire? OK, if there is nothing desirous about a wonderful
thing in television, or in the store, if you do not see it, you do
not know that it even exists. You have to see it first and
say, “Yes, I want that,” or whatever those eyes desire.
So, the eyes are a very powerful sense
that draws us toward our desires. When you close your eyes,
you close a great sense of pulling you out to the external world.
Then you start listening to
the breathing within yourself. You breath in, “Haree Om Shrii Hung.”
You watch the silence between breathing in and breathing out.
Then you say, “Om Nam Kevalam," and you watch that
silence between breathing out and breathing in. And you say,
“The Goal Of The Life Is To Be(Come) Divine. That Divinity
(God) Is Everything.” Now you are not hearing any attraction
from the external world either because you are hearing the
breathing, the Mantra, or ideating on the meaning of the Mantra,
“The goal of the life is to be(come) Divine.”
Therefore, you are also shutting
another strong powerful sense, which is hearing and listening to
others, or voices that pull you toward the external world.
Your sense of touch, which is within yourself, and all the senses
also are quieted down and directed toward the within. That is
because, where can you know yourself? You can know yourself
within yourself.
It is not out there. People are
looking for happiness all over the place. They think if they
have this and that, and that, and that, they are going to be happy.
Are they? The more you have, the more you see people become
less happy, lose their touch with the reality, their egos become
big, large, huge, and greater, and someday they become completely
disconnected from God. They just accept a couple of dogmas,
and say, “Yes, if we accept these couple of dogmas, we are going to
be saved.”
But, God said, “No, dogmas will not
save you. Your tradition, your culture, your background, your
preacher, cannot save you.” You have to listen to God, His
Scriptures, and His Prophets. To do that you have to
completely quiet down your senses.
So, it is within you. Do not look
in another person. Do not look in another place. Do not
say, “Oh, if I leave from here to somewhere else, I am going to be
OK.” You will not, because you are taking your bag with you
wherever you go. It is with you.
It is within you. Everything is within you. Your
happiness is within you. Your God is within you. Your
realization is within you. Your salvation is within you.
That is the Mystical Paths.
After you do that and you know
“thyself,” what is the next step? “I want other people to
also know ‘thyself.’ I want that they also awaken their
spiritual forces and become great, know thyself, and feel the Spirit
of God, the closeness to Him awakened and realized, overcome all the
pitfalls, they do not want much, and they do not look for ‘stuff’
out there to accumulate in their lives, but they want to be channels
for God.”
Therefore, we can see the next step is
to create an environment that is also going to help other people to
become self-realized and become great people. That is the
teaching of the
Old Testament. If you read the Old Testament,
you can see that God was trying to choose a people for Himself, as
the twelve tribes of Israel.
What is a tribe? A tribe is a
community that the people live in. The communities that
God was trying to create in the Old Testament were the
communities based on God’s Laws.
They accepted Him as the King
and followed His Laws, and exactly as long as they did that,
they were different than their neighbors. They were Blessed.
They were in God. But, eventually they longed for a human
king. Samuel went to God and said, “God, they rejected me.
They do not want me to be their judge.”
God said, “No, they did not reject you.
You have such a big ego, Samuel. It is Me they rejected
because I am their King, and you are My judge. You are not
their King.”
God is the King, but they did not want
God to be King. They wanted an earthly king, and even
worse than that, most people want to be king themselves. They
let their ego be the king of their lives.
So, the whole Old Testament is
showing the struggle with God, to create the community that accepts
Him as King and His Laws as the Laws to follow. They fell, and they
could not completely accept Him. That is why He
elaborately brought a lot of rituals to them, so it focused them
back to God all the time.
That is what rituals are for.
Rituals are not something you do automatically, but you turn around.
You go toward the world, and suddenly you say, “Oh, this is the time
to do The Reminder.” You turn around. You go back
to God. “Oh, it is time to go to do something else. No,
it is time to do The Reminder.” You turn around.
You see, that is baptism. That is the act of baptism.
Rituals are the acts of baptism.
You pull yourself away from the world, and you say, “I want to go to
God. I want to do His Will.” So the more you do that, the more
you are going to be turned around, and the more you are going to be
baptized. If you do it ten times a day, you are baptized ten
times a day. If you do it two times a day, you are going to be
baptized two times a day.
So, that is the Old Testament,
to create the Communities of Light. The Communities
of Light
are where God is accepted as King and His Laws as the Laws of the
universe. Therefore, they bring the compassion, love,
understanding, cooperation, teamwork, and oneness with each other.
In community, you become a large family that is one with each other,
and your ego is not in the way, but God comes through you. The
more God comes through you, the more you become one.
The more you keep your ego, you feel
the community is not a part of you and you are not a part of
community, and you will not last in such a community where God is so
strong and powerful. Also, the more you come closer to God,
the less your will, will be done, but God’s Will be done. You can see that is what the
Old Testament and the Hebrews were trying to manifest. That is the example that the Hebrews left for
humanity, to see that the Communities of Light, accepting God
as the King and His Laws as the Laws, is necessary to bring the
Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth.
The next step in the creation of the
Communities of Light, which is the base of the Kingdom Of Heaven
On Earth, is realizing, “If I am in a community, if I am
self-centered and always say, ‘What is in it for me in this
community?’ that community will not last, and it is not going to be
a Community of Light.”
The next step is to
sacrifice, to be able to give of yourself and say, “No, not all the
time what is in it for me, but what is in it for the community?
What can I do in the community? How can I help? How can
I improve it?” As you do that, the community will improve, you
will be known as a great personality in the community, and you will
advance in the community in the positions of leadership, or higher
level, etc.
The next step is sacrifice in the
communities. That is very well demonstrated with Christ.
He went all the way to the cross and showed us that even if it is
necessary for an ideal, to sacrifice the body, so be it. You
should be able to go all the way.
Probably it is no longer necessary.
He has done it for us. His blood is shed, the Lamb of God has
been sacrificed, and The Grace has been released to humanity.
Therefore, we do not need to do that. He has done it.
The Grace is in every one of us and is released to all of us.
However, with The Grace in the
community, The Grace is not self-centered. As I said, the
moment you are self-centered, The Grace is cut off, absolutely is
cut off. The less egoistical and self-centered we are, the
more Grace will come to us.
Therefore, he showed us that to receive
The Grace, to create the Communities of Light, sacrifice is
necessary. So the message for humanity from Christ was,
sacrifice. In the community, you should put the community’s
well-being ahead of your own well-being. As the community
prospers and becomes well, you will prosper and you will be well.
Now, as we have said many times, you
sacrifice, you meditate, you awaken your spiritual forces a little
bit, you try to create the Community of Light, you sacrifice
for it, and nothing happens. You feel, “What am I doing?
I put all this effort. I am giving Satsang for twenty years
and just a few people are listening to it, and even those
few people are still not completely with it, etc.
What is this that I am doing?”
You realize, well you are attached to
the results. You want something to happen for you. You
think you are the doer. You think that you are the person who
is giving the Satsang, you are the person who is going to create the
Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth, you are the person who is going to
create the Communities of Light, and you are the person who
attracts people to come to the Mission and listen to this
Revelation.
And you say, “Hum, there is something
wrong here, and that is why I am so unhappy, depressed, etc.
I am thinking, ‘Why is it not happening? Why is it not
happening?’” But you realize, “It is not up to me; it is up to
God if it happens or not.”
So, you surrender the result and you
say, “OK, I gave the Satsang. I will try my best. I will
do it over and over, and over, as long as I have the breath in my
body. After I do, it is up to God. I will give the
purest Revelation possible, and I am not going to care what man
thinks, but what God thinks.”
That is how we can purify religions by
realizing, “What does God think? Really, did He send all these
religions, or did He just send one of them?” or, “Are we
really the Elects?" or, “Are our cultures and traditions the
most important, or the Words of God?”
That is the greatest obstacle in
receiving the new Prophet and new Revelation: our traditions, our
cultures, our up-bringing in the different religions – accepting that
that is the only way, it is the best way, etc., instead
of saying, “Let us stop here and say, ‘OK, I have no culture, I have
no tradition, I have no religion. What did God really say?’”
And read THOTH with that attitude, not with the
attitude of, “It is from the devil anyway so I am just going to look
at it as something to reject already.”
No, do not do that. With an open mind,
read THOTH and forget about what you know.
Otherwise, you cannot completely see the truth in this Revelation.
Then, you realize that you
are not the doer, and that you are attached to the results.
That is when the depression comes. That is when you say, “Oh,
I am tired. I have had enough of doing this.”
If you know that this is the Will of
God and it is the Word of God, you should not be tired of it at all.
You should do it over, and over, and over, and over, and over to the
end of your life. So, that is how you combat depression,
by surrendering the result to God.
Of course, later on you realize a
greater truth and that is, if God is everything and everywhere, and
the Spirit of God is within each of us, who is the doer anyway?
“He is the Doer, and I am just a channel for Him. I will be
surrendered and submitted to God completely, and let Him do the work
through me.”
Will He do the perfect job? He
will because God is perfect. If He is doing it through you,
the job will be perfect.
If you think He comes through you and
the job is not perfect, is it God doing it? No, He is not,
because God is perfect. How can God make mistakes? How
can God do something that is not perfect? Therefore, you can
let Him come through this time. If He is doing the job, who is the
Doer? He is the Doer. Who is going to be attached to the
result, if any? God is going to be attached to the result, of course, He is not; He is not attached to anything.
He is independent of His creation.
His creation depends on Him but He is not dependent on the creation.
Therefore, we have to realize that He is not attached to the result
of His actions. But, He does the perfect job.
That message has come from Islam.
It comes from the word, “tasleim,” which means surrendering and
submission to God.
After that, still we might direct our
effort towards only a part of the universe, our community, our city,
our nation, or even earth. The next step is that you have to
expand yourself to the whole universe, realize God is your Father
and Mother, the universe is your home, and you have no attachment to
any part of the universe, not even to the earth. That is
because after we are done here with this earth, we have to go and
bring the Kingdom Of Heaven on other planets, the Planet Krypton, or
something [laughing]. Whatever planet there is, we will go
there and we will continue bringing this greatest Revelation and the
Kingdom on those planets.
Then it is not going to be the Kingdom
Of Heaven On Earth, it is going to be the Kingdom Of Heaven On
Krypton, or whatever the planet is going to be.
So, we can see that the next step is
universalism. Universalism has come from the teachings of Bab
and Baha’u’llah. They brought the idea that all religions
are basically the same, all have the truth, and they have come from
the same God. Therefore, we have to become united and to
realize that God is One. That is a great teaching.
A lot of people compare our teaching
with the Baha’i teaching. As you can see, it is not the same.
Our teaching does not say that all religions are basically the same;
therefore, we have to become united because God has said the same
thing in all religions.
We can see here that every religion has
a specific message for humanity. The Mystical Paths is to,
“Know thyself.” The Old Testament is the creation of
the Communities of Light. The New Testament is
sacrifice in order to create the Communities of Light.
Islam is surrendering and submission to the Will of God, and Baha’i
is the universalism.
These five steps are the five steps of
the Eternal Divine Path. It awakens your spiritual
forces, therefore, you “Know thyself.” Knowing thyself is to
know God. To know God is to know what is His Will for you and
how you can accomplish that Will.
The second step is the creation of the
Communities of Light. It means to bring like-minded people
together and create an environment for everyone to grow physically,
mentally, and spiritually.
The next step is to sacrifice, not
being self-centered. Then become surrendered and submissive to
God, and become a universalist.
So when you create the Communities
of Light, you learn and grow. It is easy to live by
yourself somewhere in the mountains, or in your apartment, or in
your house and say, “Well, I am such a wonderful person. I am
such a good person,” etc.
But if you live in a community, there
are eleven other people living around you and then see how good
you are. Then you will even accelerate your own spiritual
progress and “know thyself” a hundred thousand times, in a greater
degree, if you would listen.
If you do not want to listen, if you do
not want to meditate, if you do not want to “know thyself,” if you
do not want to awaken your spiritual forces, no matter where they
put you, you are just going to keep your ego and listen to your own
little desires and wants, and never progress. So the
Community of Light still needs you to take the initiative to
open yourself to the energy and become a part of it. If you
are not a part of it and you keep your ego still intact, it is not
going to help much. Maybe a little in the long run, but not as
much as it could if you are open to the energy that comes to you.
In the Communities of Light,
none of the guidance given to you is going to work if you are not willing to listen to
God. Therefore, in the communities you accelerate, “knowing
thyself” and your progress becomes accelerated in a greater degree.
With sacrifice you forget about ego,
always, “What is in it for me?” You live in your apartment,
you have all these amenities and comforts for yourself, and you
think, “I am such a great guy or gal.” But when someone
comes and says, “Let us share a little of your things with other
people,” you become very upset and say, “No, this is mine. Do not
touch it. This is my home. This is my…”
That is kind of a dog mentality that,
“I keep these things for myself and I am not going to share.”
Sharing is not a good idea; it is the Law to share with one another.
Therefore, in the Communities of Light, your ego will be
modified to learn to share instead of always keeping whatever you
have.
In surrendering and submission, what is
the greatest achievement in human life? It is to become one
with God. The Fourth Seal actually accomplishes that because
you let God come through you to do the work. The more you do
that, the less of you will be there; the more of God will be there;
the more Godly and one with Him you will Be.
Therefore, the Fourth Seal is the
greatest spiritual achievement, to become surrendered and submissive
to God. But you have to know His Will first, which is the
Eternal Divine Path.
However, all these steps still will be
narrow. To shatter all the narrowness of the mind,
prejudices, separation, and destructive tendencies, is to realize
that God is One and there is no separation between any part of It
and any other part. Therefore, you do not separate yourself by
nationality, religion, race, or any other “ism,” but you follow
universalism. You see God as your Father and Mother, the
universe as your home, everyone in it and every part of it as a part
of the struggling travelers with you. So you shatter the
narrowness of the mind, which is the base of all suffering.
With all these five steps, you become
an Elect. As I have said, the real Elects have been in the
process of being created for the last 12,000 years. I do not
have to teach you how to meditate. I can help you, but
probably you have forgotten a little bit. I can nudge you a
little bit toward realizing how to go back to meditate. But,
you love to meditate, and you like to “know thyself.”
Actually, you have been struggling to
know yourself all your life. You are different than other
people. You know you want to “know thyself.” You do not
want to just live like everyone else, half asleep, and in delusion
of, “This is the real life,” and accumulate a lot of wealth and then
leave it behind.
You cannot even take your body with you
when you die. So, it is not a good idea to waste your time for
something that you cannot even take with you. The only thing you take with you is
your Soul. That is where you have to become wealthy.
Become wealthy in Soul, not wealthy in the material things. We
have the material things for the minimum comfort but concentrate the
rest for your greater spiritual progress.
You already know how to meditate.
You have been living in Communities of Light. You love
to be in Communities of Light. You do not want to be
alone, lonely, self-centered, egoistical, etc.
Sacrifice is easy for you. You
can easily give of yourself to the community. And, you can
become surrendered and submissive to God easily and become one with
Him.
The universe is your home. You
already know that you love the whole universe. You cannot
separate yourself.
Such people are the Elects. That
is the Sixth Seal in our teaching. The Elects are the people
who are intellectually strong, business aware, spiritually
incorruptible, and Great Souls who follow the Eternal Divine Path.
They have the qualities of all the classes of the human.
They have the ability to come to this Mission, take charge,
realize my teaching, and teach what I teach to the rest of humanity.
They forego their own teaching but
concentrate on the teaching of God. They will bring this
teaching to all so everyone who is an Elect will come to us,
and those who also are called for this Mission will come
together.
This is the
time of sundering. This is the Call for the Elects to come
together.
Those who are not Elects, I am sorry to say, might not be incarnated
for a long, long time until they learn their lessons and eventually
come and join the Kingdom.
The chaff and the wheat have been grown
together for the last twelve thousand years. Now, this is the
time to gather the wheat to the barn of the Father. Those who
have progressed will be reincarnated again and again, and I
will reincarnate also with them. Eventually we will bring the
Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth.
This teaching is the Seventh
Teaching. The Elects, the Sixth Seal, are those who bring the
Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth. The Seventh Seal unifies them
and explains all. Everything is explained here in this
Mission
for humanity; all questions are answered.
Some people say that there are other
rooms that people have a lot of questions. Why don’t they come
here and ask us? We will clarify it for them and will answer
their questions. They will see that what we say makes
sense.
This is the base of our teaching. Now
you have heard it. Go and teach it to every person, every
individual, and to every corner of the earth. Start your own
room. Call it whatever you want. You can teach a part of
the teaching, or the whole teaching, whatever. But, first of
all, teach them the Eternal Divine Path and let every man,
woman, and child hear this great Revelation from God and bring the
Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth. That is the goal of this
Mission. Eventually many people will become Divine.
Now my explanation of the base of our
teaching is finished. If you have any questions, raise your
hand, and I will answer your questions.
Go ahead, John.
John:
Maitreya, my question comes from THOTH.
Several times in THOTH it will mention something
similar to this, which I find in Holiest 1, verse 10:
“Furthermore, this force [referring to the tama guna] is the one
which fixes the things in the mind and enables the consciousness to
visualize it. In other words, it creates the visualization or
screen for things to be seen in the universe.”
Does that also mean that it creates the
screen for all other senses to perceive things as well, beyond just
visualization? That is my question.
Maitreya:
Yes, all the senses send signals to the Chitta. The Chitta is
the part of the mind that crudifies, visualizes, and makes a person
sense it, see it, taste it, smell it, touch it, and hear it.
Anytime one of these senses receive one of these signals, the
signal is sent to the Chitta, which is the connection between the
mind and the external world. It is the very finest ether in
the universe, therefore, that is why we sense.
When we see, what does it see? Do
the eyes see? Or it is really your Soul that sees? The
eye does not see. If you take your eye out of your socket and
put it somewhere else without being connected to your body, does it still see? No, it does not. It is
finished. It is not connected to your brain.
Even your brain, take the brain out and
put it there. Can it think anymore? It cannot.
What is it that thinks? There is something beyond the brain,
which thinks, is able to perceive and sense, etc.
So we can see that the physical body,
including the brain itself, is not the seer, doer, or sensor.
Therefore, there has to be something else beyond the brain that does
it because none of the functions of the body separately will
function correctly.
Some people say, “Well, the total body
together makes a person. Therefore, if we have a heart, a
lung, and a stomach, and take them from different dead people and
put them together, will that work?” We will still see that, no,
it will not, because the total is there but the lifeform and the
Spirit is not. So, we can see that there has to be something
beyond this physical body that we see with, or taste with, etc.
Of course, science cannot see it.
They have even tried to measure a human after death. They say,
“If there is something there when the person dies, if we put the body
on the scale and there is a Soul, we should be able to see the difference between
the dead body and alive body.” However, because the weight did not
change, therefore, “There is no Soul.” That is what they
concluded because the weight did not change.
But, the Soul does not have weight.
It is always everywhere in the universe. It is nothing that
really leaves. It is just the connection is severed; we are
not connected to the Spirit any longer.
Therefore, we can see that there has to
be something beyond this physical body, and that is where the
physical body is connected to the Soul, by the Chitta. The
Chitta is created by the tama guna, and it receives the signals from
our senses. When it senses it, the Ahamttattva part of
the mind says, “Yes, I know that. I know that sense. I
can understand. I can feel that sense.” Then it sends the
signal to the Mahattattva.
The Mahattattva is the part that makes
the decisions. It says, “Yes, I know. I know this sense,
what it is.” It happens so fast. The moment we touch, we
feel the thing. Or, the moment we smell, we smell the thing
but really it goes through the process of going through our senses,
our nervous system to the brain, to the Chitta, which keeps the
shape of the thing, or the smell of the thing. Ahamtattva
takes it as an active force and takes it to the Mahattattva, which
says, I know, I recognize, and I make the decision.
Then that, “making the decisions” part
of you, of course, is under the influence of the Soul. The Soul is
the real other part of God, or Universal Mind. According to
where your Soul is, then you use that sense accordingly.
As I have said, if you have a surgeon’s
knife, if you are a surgeon, you take it and your Soul says, “You
are a surgeon, you are a doctor, you have a promise that you will
use this tool to heal people.” Therefore, your action returns,
your Mahattattva tells your Ahamtattva, tells this decision to the
Chitta, and tells it to perform the surgery, heal this person, and
take the tumor out. Then he does that. He follows his
subconscious mind, which is trained to use the surgeon's knife in
that way.
Then if you give the same knife to a
killer, the killer says, “Oh, such a good sharp knife. I can
probably kill a lot of people with it.” Therefore, he sees the
knife, the Chitta gets the form of the knife, and the Ahamtattva
takes it to the Mahattattva, or decision-making part of the mind and
says, “That is beautiful. I can use this very easily to
kill people.” So, the knife itself really does not have
anything to do with either of them.
The knife can cut. That is all it
does. It depends on how you use it, and at the hand of whom.
You use everything according to your subconscious mind, according to
the influence it has on your Soul. If your Soul is influenced
by the tama guna, is self-centered, and
egoistical, you live a self-centered, egoistical life.
Eventually you might say, “Oh, I have had enough of this ego. I do not
want to have anything to do with it.”
If you do that, and you are in a higher
level and Godly, your Mahattattva says, “Give a good Satsang. Go to different rooms and preach the teaching of the Revelation.
Do not waste your time in other rooms that are not Godly. Go
start your own room.”
See, then you will be guided to do the
Will of God. It depends on where your consciousness is.
So, the Chitta, Ahamtattva, and Mahattattva in everyone is the same.
It is the Soul, where the Soul is, that makes the difference.
So to answer your question, yes, every
sense goes to the Chitta which is the tama guna, and the ethereal,
the fine ether, that takes the form of that sense, sense of touch,
smell, sight, etc. The Ahamtattva, or
mutative force, takes that sense to the Mahattattva, or sentient
force, and the sentient force decides according to your Soul, and
sends the signal back, what to do.
But of course, it is more than that.
If you read Universe and Man, it talks about the different
senses, different carriers, that carry the messages from your senses
to the higher consciousness, etc. So it is more
complicated than that. But, basically yes, every sense sends
their senses to the Chitta, the Chitta takes the form of that
because it crudifies and fixes, and then the Ahamtattva takes it to
the decision-making part, and the decision-making part will do it
according to the subconscious mind.
I hope that makes sense.
OK, John, go ahead.
John:
My question is in Tablet 10 of Commentaries on St. Matthew,
verse 18. The very last sentence suggests that we, “Be here
now,” in command form in English. So, it is a real suggestion
that we do that. Can you explain ways that we can concentrate
our energies more so that we are here, at the moment?
And, if we are here at the moment, and
we really get good at that, isn’t that the same as Pure
Consciousness, to be, in be-ness or am-ness? Does that make
sense?
Maitreya:
It absolutely makes sense. That is exactly what it is.
You have probably heard many Masters and great teachers say, “Be
here now," or there was a gentleman by the name of Ram Dass
who wrote a book, Be Here Now. It was published when I
first came to the United States. He taught, "Be here now."
But they are words, very interesting
words, because the moment you say, “Be here now,” the now is past,
and you are a couple of seconds in the future. Therefore you never can be here now, if you think about being here now and intellectually want to understand what it means. That is
because the moment you say, “Be here now,” you no longer are here
because the second and moment, and the “now” are past.
“Be here now,” really means, “Whatever
is past, is past. Whatever is done is done." It is gone,
it is in the past, and you have no control over it. The only
thing you have control over is to learn your lessons You look
at the past, examine your actions, and then conclude, “Well, that
was not good, that was not good, and that was good. I should
do that more often. Those things that take me away from God, I
am not going to do them any more.” You learn your lessons from
the past. But you leave the past away and you say, “Well, that
is the past. I can do nothing about it. I forgive
myself. God forgive me for all my past that was not good.
I will try to be good and purify myself for the future.”
But, the future is not here either.
The future is in the future. You are not there, and you do not
know what is going to happen. “I might just fall down and die
right now in the moment, if God wills. I do not know the
future. I am not going to worry about it.”
I am going to do my best to create the
Communities of Light and live in the Communities of Light.
When I am old, the community is going to take care of me. The younger people are going to come
and join the community, and they will help with the community.
Also, the children are going to have a beautiful place to live.
The grandparents can teach them, take
care of them, and feel useful instead of living in an apartment and
feeling useless, thinking about themselves, getting all kinds of
diseases in their minds, and going here and there instead of
following God’s Way, which is
Communities of Light. And, the older people are going
to be taken care of.
Older people have a lot of wisdom.
They have learned a lot through 50, 60, 70 years of life. They
can teach the children a lot of beautiful things, tell them a lot of
stories, etc. So, the future is the future.
A better future is to create the
Communities of Light. That is the only way humanity will
be taken care of physically, mentally, and spiritually on all
levels.
So, the future is in the future.
You can do nothing about that. The only thing you can do is
your best in this moment you are in. Learn from the past
mistakes. Learn from the past, improve yourself in the moment,
and work for the future. That is being here and now.
Being here and now is a state of
mind. It is not an intellectual explanation. It is not
something that you say, “Oh, I am going to be here and now from now
on. I am here and now. Am I here and now? Oh, no, I am not here and now. But the moment I said I am
here and now, the here and now is gone. I am a couple of
seconds into the future. Therefore I am not in the here and
now....”
You cannot intellectualize it.
You have to live here and now. You have to forgive yourself
from the past, learn the lessons, work for the future, and do what is
necessary at this moment to create that future that you want to see
to come. Therefore, you will be living here and now by doing
that because you will realize that the only way to do that is to be
able to be ready for the future and not be worried about what
happened in the past, and not be worried for the future. But,
know that the only good future is the future in the Communities
of Light.
That is what it means there in
THOTH, be here and now. It is not an intellectual
discussion. It is not something that you think about it.
As I said, you learn from the past, you work for God’s Will in
the future, and you become more and more perfect every moment
because you learn from your past.
What is the path of perfection?
Any time you become more perfect, you are closer to perfection.
Therefore, we do not expect you to become perfect tomorrow, but we expect you
to work toward becoming perfect in your life.
So that is what it means, “Be here and
now.” Again, it is not an intellectual thing. It is a
realization of your past, improving yourself, and working for the
future of the best place for humanity.
I hope that makes sense.
We had another person who had a
question; if you do have a question, go ahead, and jump in. You do not have to
raise your hand.
Audience:
Yes, Maitreya-ji, I had a question about an elderly person,
someone who is your relative. If they are on their deathbed,
what is the proper thing to do to help them in transition from life
to death? What is the proper thing to do in that situation, if
someone is on his or her deathbed?
Maitreya:
Well, the best thing to do for them is to read them THOTH
and tell them about the Eternal Divine Path.
If they are in a place that
you can do nothing about it, the transition is to make them as
comfortable as possible, provide their sustenance, make them feel
loved, bring them whatever they need, and help them out as much as
you can. Make them to not feel cold, or hot, and bring all the
physical comforts for them. Eventually, of course, you have to
leave it to God to see what He wants to be done to them.
At that moment, at the last moment, you
cannot do much for the person. The only thing you can do
really is to make them comfortable, read them Scriptures, and make them
to be(come) in higher consciousness, at least at the last moment.
If you are Godly that is the
most important moment in your life because you have been
meditating and you have been progressing all the time. It
depends on where you are in consciousness at that moment; it makes
your next incarnation where you will be reincarnated. Of
course, your life work will be counted on, but in that moment if you
are Godly, probably you are thinking about God.
But, if you are still thinking about television, movies, and all
those things, probably you are not very high consciousness.
That is why in many cultures, they read
Scriptures to the dying person to make them to at least concentrate
on higher things and the Words of God. Therefore, my answer was
correct, read them THOTH, really, if they can listen.
If they are in a place that they are gone, then as I said, make them
as comfortable as possible.
In the Communities of Light,
those questions are answered, because in the
Communities of Light, the children are taken care of by the
grandparents, and they can help. They will be there, they will
be loved, and they are helpful. Then when the time for them has
come, if they are really high spiritual beings, they even know that
they are going to be gone because the prana starts leaving your body
six months before your death, unless you are in an accident or
something that it happens suddenly. No one can do too much
about that.
So, if you are very spiritual, you will
know that your time is approaching and you prepare yourself, just
like those American Indians who say, “This is a good day to die.”
They make their bed, go there, and meditate, and they leave
their bodies. At this time, the people are so
disconnected from the Self that death comes very hard to them.
They are not prepared for it, and they do not want it.
They are attached and desirous for a
lot of things in their lives, and they cannot see the beauty of
death, of the transition from one state to another and coming back
in the body. That is why they are so resistant to die. That makes it even harder for them because they are not
prepared. Your whole life, you should be prepared to die.
Actually, we die every moment; our
cells die. Every seven years, our whole body, besides the
brain, is a new one. So, you can see that everyone is dying.
Death is not something to be afraid of, but it should be realized
that we have another chance. We will be reincarnated and given
another chance.
The question is, “Did we progress
enough in
this lifetime, while we were on earth, or we did not?” If we
did not, we are afraid to die because we did not do our job.
So, what can we do for them? Make
them comfortable. Make them as comfortable as possible and
provide them with some place that they are warm, taken care of, etc. And, leave them to God.
I hope that answers your question.
We will be meditating then. If
you have a question, just raise your hand, and we will ask you to
come to the microphone. Actually, I am very happy when there are
not questions because that means you have all the answers, and you
know the answers. We can meditate together. Then if
there are any questions, raise your hand.
For those who have joined us later,
this is the Mission of Maitreya. It is the unification
of all religions and the bringing of the Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth.
We suggest that you go to our website and read about the Eternal
Divine Path, the base of our teachings, and realize that God has
manifested Himself on earth in His fullest ever. So, we can
realize there is One God, One Humanity, and we all can come together
as One people and follow His Will.
Go ahead, Tahirah.
Tahirah:
Thank you, Maitreya. I would actually like to ask, the
same question that Sarha-ji asked, only for animals. Do you
apply the same concept to animals?
Maitreya:
Animals also should be taken care of. They are a part of
human life and the earth’s growth. They have to be
comforted. They have to be provided for as much as possible.
But, the life of humans have the priority over the animals. If
there is a place that you have to save the human or animal, the
human has the priority.
If you have an animal that he or
she has lived with you all her life, you have been taking care of
her, she gave you comfort, companionship, brought you laughter, made
you feel loved, you gave him love, and there is a great relationship
between you two, he or she is a part of your family. You
should be very concerned about them. But, they were created
for us to take care of them and love them.
However, human life should be
prioritized more than animals. So, we have to take care of the
human suffering on earth and eliminate those sufferings first.
Then, when the Communities of Light come, the animals
also will be taken care of. They will live in the communities
and be a great part of them. Everyone will give them love, and
also they will return our love.
When the time comes for them to
go, the same thing for them. You provide them with a
comfortable place to live, and provide shelter and sustenance until
they leave their bodies, especially if it is your pet or something
that you have created a relationship with.
However, again, your family and the
people in your family, have priority over animals. Animals
know how to take care of themselves. But if you have an animal
that you brought up from childhood, and she does not know how to
fend for herself or himself, you are responsible for it. You
have to provide for it as much as you can. When you bring
a pet into your life, you have to be responsible for it.
I hope that answered your question.
[Silence]
Again, at this time, probably it is
good to spend our time and energy mostly for the Mission, the
creation of the Communities of Light, and the Kingdom Of
Heaven On Earth. Later on, pets and animals are going to be
living also in the community. They will easily be taken care
of and provided for. But, if animals are taking us away from
doing the Will of God, then we have to decrease the number of
animals we keep [laughing]. I hope that makes sense.
[Silence]
Yes, Tiger, go ahead.
Tiger:
My question is, how does the body prepare six months before the
death? I heard you explaining that.
Maitreya:
Yes, that is a good question, Tiger. You have to be sensitive.
Not everyone realizes this. Usually, they say, “I do not feel
good. I am not at the top of the world. I just feel
bad,” etc.
But if you meditate and you are
sensitive to your body, if your body is purified and is pure, you
will know that the prana, or the life force, is not entering your
body, but actually is leaving your body. That is when that
American Indian probably would have realized and knew something is
leaving, the energy is leaving the body. Therefore, he
prepared himself for death.
It also happens to yogis. The
yogis know their time of death has come because they are so familiar
with the body, and they are so sensitive about the body. So,
they can prepare themselves.
They take care of business. They
finish everything in this world that is worldly for them and they
have to take care of before they leave. Therefore, they are
ready to die when the time comes. But, it does not happen to
every person. If they are not sensitive enough to the
body, they would not know. Most people do not know.
Death comes, and suddenly one day they are alive and the next day
they are dead, and they did not know at all that death was coming.
Another sign is, usually a week before
a person dies, they actually feel much better. They are more
energetic. They can get things done. They feel young.
They become so elated to get things done, and they feel very good.
They say to everyone, “I feel great."
That is, God is giving them the last
opportunity to take care of their business, their lives, and prepare
themselves for the transition. Therefore, they should not use
that time to play golf, or play tennis, or things that are not
taking care of the last business in their lives.
So, God is very compassionate. He
knows that death is just a transition. It is not something
that we should be afraid of. Nothing dies in this universe,
and nothing is created. Everything is here, has been here, and
will be here forever.
Therefore, there is no fear of death
because you have transitioned from one consciousness or level to
another, and you came to this body for a reason, for a purpose.
It is not just a joke, or a play. It is the reason we are
here, to progress, physically, mentally, and spiritually.
We have to take care of the self,
physically become strong, mentally we have to study and become
strong, intellectually we have to develop, and spiritually we
have to progress. We can see that all those things are
necessary, but at the same time realize that when death comes, it is
not a big deal. It is just a transition from this lifetime to
the next lifetime. If we have progressed, we have no fear of
death at all.
So, that is how it works. You
have to become sensitive to your body to know in six months the
death will come to you.
I hope that answers your question,
Tiger. If it does not answer your question, you can always
follow up, especially now that not very many people are asking
questions. You can just go ahead to the microphone and ask.
Of course, in the Communities of
Light, everyone will have the opportunity to know themselves
much better, on a deeper level, and all these things will become
much clearer to everyone. They will become more sensitive about
their bodies. They will have more time to meditate. And
hopefully, everyone, just like that American
Indian medicine man, will know the time of their death. They
will choose a nice day, will go and lie down, and transition to the
other world, and come back again to a new body and continue.
Therefore, there is not such a thing as
death in the Mission. We just continue coming back
again and again. That shows
the justness of God. That is because if God gives us only one
lifetime and tells us, “That is it, if you make it this lifetime,
that is fine, you go to heaven. If you do not, you go to
hell.” What kind of just God is He if He brings me up
somewhere that I never heard about any of this and then He says,
“No, you go to hell. You burn until eternity in that hell?”
It just does not make sense. But, reincarnation makes sense.
Especially in the last 12,000 years,
humanity has been reincarnated again, and again, and again, to this
point. At this point God knows very well who is the chaff and
who is the wheat. The wheat will be reincarnated, bring
His Kingdom to earth, and provide an environment that when the chaff
is reincarnated, they have no choice but to meditate, to awaken
their spiritual forces, and progress.
So you can see that this is the
defining point for humanity at this junction. We can see that
all the signs are available to us, the wars, the rumors of wars, the
knowledge has increased, the separation between religions is greater,
etc.
All the signs are telling us that this
is the end time. This is the time that all the Prophets had
prophesied to come, and God comes for judgment. His judgment
is if you are the chaff, if you are not the wheat, you will not be
reincarnated. You will be kept away from the earth.
The Kingdom has to come, and that is
how this
Mission will be fulfilled, through the Elects, to those who
have awakened their spiritual forces, they love to create the
Communities of Light, they sacrifice for them, they surrender
and submit for them, they become universalists, and they become
Elects. That is what the judgment is.
The judgment is that God already knows
who is chaff and who is wheat. This is where we are, at that
junction. In the community, all these questions will be a part
of your life, and you know the truth of the Will of God. Then death becomes so insignificant that it does not really matter
any more.
That is another thing you can tell
Christians, Moslems, and Jews, that this is the judgment day.
It is not the same thing as they are asking, “Why don’t you go to the
cross? Why don’t you heal me? Why don’t you do this, as
the other Prophets have done?”
They have already done those things.
It is done. It is finished. It is gone. If you did
not get it by this time, I am sorry to say, probably it is too late.
It is the time of sundering. It is the time of who goes where.
The Spirit of God is behind this
Mission. He is the Judge. He knows all of us in our
hearts, where we are at, what we do, and how much we proclaim Him,
and how much our ego is still involved in it. We have to let
Him come through us so that we can gather the Elects together, we
can bring the Kingdom, we can create the Communities of Light,
and we can show humanity that God really exists.
THOTH,
our Holiest Book, our Scripture, shows that God exists. God
said that He was going to do these things, and He did them.
Therefore, God exists.
Now He says, “This is the time of
sundering.” That is exactly where the Revelations come from
the Prophets. There is going to be a time that is the end time. The end time to the regular people was explained
that some people are going to be in hell, and some are going to go
to heaven. But we know it is the new age coming, the Golden
Age is coming. That is what He meant.
Those who are well and made it, they
are going to be in the Golden Age and have the Kingdom Of Heaven On
Earth for a long time. Those who do not, they will be
sundered; they will be kept away from coming back for a long time
until it is prepared for them to come, learn, and progress.
I hope it makes sense. It makes a
lot of sense to me. There are a lot of wars in the world.
People are killed and destroyed. Why? Why, do we need
that? Probably we do because those people are warmongers, they
are destructive, and they create separation between humans and
humans. They do not want to see this. Probably they will
not accept our teachings, and they are not going to come and join us. If they come, tomorrow we are going to
have the Kingdom.
They will not. But we will wait.
We will wait for God to fight our wars and eventually the Elects
will see that they have been looking for this Revelation, and they
will gather together like the Eagles. They will bring the
Kingdom and the Communities of Light
on earth.
We are not against anyone. We are
not revolutionaries. We are evolutionary people.
Evolution tells us that the next step is the Golden Age. We
will be incarnated into it and praise the Lord for a long time and
bring His Glory to earth instead of putting Him into the bottles of
dogmas, cultures, or things that humans do.
So, we have to completely see the Will
of God, what is happening, and what a wonderful God He is
because He has said that He was going to do these things, and He has
done them. He is powerful.
He can do it, but He does not want to
enforce His Will on you. You have the will to follow Him, or
you have the will not to follow Him. It is as simple as it
is.
He is not a cultist. He is not
going to say, “No, if you do not do it you are going to be
destroyed.” You will be, but the choice has been given to you
to make your own choice and say, “I choose God with the free
will. I will not be concerned for man, but for God. I am
not afraid of man. I am afraid of God.”
Therefore, your choice then becomes
very clear to you, which way you want to go. We are living in
a very interesting period of time, although the suffering of
humanity is disheartening but they have a choice not to. God
has given that choice to everyone.
I hope all this makes sense to you.
We have another half an hour that we will be with you. I will
be meditating with you, and if there is a question, raise your hand.
I will be informed that you have raised your hand, and we will go
from there.
Audience:
Why the swastika on your website?
Maitreya:
Sure. That is a good question. That is a question that a
lot of people ask us, why the swastika? The swastika is the
oldest symbol in the world. It is the symbol of the movement
of the kundalini, or the spiritual forces, that when it awakens it
will swirl up the spine. Humans knew about it thousands and
thousands of years ago.
Actually, you can find the swastika in
every culture in the world. There is no culture that did not
know about it before Hitler misused the sign for his own purpose. There is a gentleman in Canada who has
a website all about the swastika. It has a lot of pictures and
a lot of information.
American Indians knew about it.
Even in New Mexico, if you go to a city called Montainair, there is
a hotel there that has the signs of the swastika all over the building.
If you study the Hindu religion, they
know about it and use it. Actually, the cross itself was a
form of the swastika. The cross is known in many cultures as
the broken swastika.
So therefore, it was known to the
Christians in the beginning of the spread of Christ’s teachings.
The Christians used to identify themselves with the swastika and put
the swastika on their graves, on their doors, and in their places,
so the other Christians knew that they were Christians and felt safe
to go to them, etc. That was because they were persecuted also
in the beginning of Christianity, especially in Rome, and all those
places.
Also, we have a book called, the
Swastika Book, under the FAQ section (Frequently Asked
Questions) on our website. If you go there, it says,
Swastika Book. It has a link to that website of that
gentleman from Canada.
There is a city in Canada called
Swastika. The student newspaper in the University of New
Mexico used to be called, “Swastika,” until a few years ago.
So, the swastika is not only what
Hitler used it for. Actually, that gentleman with the website about
the swastika has a declaration of independence in his site that
declares that the swastika is independent from Hitler and the ideas
that a lot of people in the world are relating to the sign.
The explanation of why the swastika is
not a bad thing has been explained many times. That is what I
was giving around a half an hour ago about the explanation of the
surgeon’s knife. If the surgeon’s knife is in the hand
of a surgeon, it can heal. If it is in the hand of a killer,
it can kill. It is a very sharp object, and it is made for
cutting flesh. Is the knife bad or good? Can you say it is
good when it is in the hand of a surgeon, and it is bad when it is
in the hand of a killer?
It is the same thing for the
swastika. The swastika was actually known as a good luck sign
in many cultures. We recommend that you go to the website
of that gentleman. Go to our website in the part, “Frequently
Asked Questions.” Look at the book. The Smithsonian
Institute published the book in the 1920’s. We found that book
in the library here in New Mexico. We took it, digitized it,
and put it on the website, because we have had so many questions
about, “Why swastika? Why are you using the swastika?”
Swastika is the movement of the
creation. It is the first sign of the big bang, that the
universe was created. Therefore, we had no choice.
If we wanted to explain the creation, we had to use the same sign
that God sent as the movement of the creation in the world.
So, we had no choice but to use that.
However, to soften the concept, we do not call it swastika, we call
it Lotustica, which is really just to give a name that can be
exonerated, accepted, and understood in a deeper level.
If you take the bad way of representing
it in the western culture, we can see that the swastika is not a bad
sign. It used to mean good luck. Christians, as I said,
knew about it and used it, and actually, the cross is a broken
swastika.
Therefore, go to our website and read
that book. Go to the other website and study about it.
Study about it in other cultures. That is one of the good things about
the
Mission, that we are open for you to go and study all
cultures, all religions, all signs, and come to your own
conclusions. Never follow the propaganda in the world.
Never listen to the things that the
culture has taught you and you never really thought deeply if it
means what they say it does. If you do that, you will
expand yourself. You will know about other cultures and how
they used different signs, what they mean, and you will come to your
own conclusions and say, “Well, how can a sign by itself be good or
evil? It depends on how you use it.”
In this case, if you study our
teachings, in the Sixth Seal, the yellow swastika becomes white.
It becomes a guiding light in your life and you realize that this
creation is destruction and death. Therefore, the only life is
in God and going toward Him. So, even this world, which is
tama guna, becomes a guiding light for you.
We have to expand ourselves, study,
read, meditate, and realize that whatever we hear is not always the
truth. We have been completely brainwashed, in a sense, to
not realize the meaning of a great thing that God has sent us.
As the great cultures have said,
“Everything is upside-down.” The more you climb this world,
the more you go to Maya, and you will be lost. The more you
climb back down, you go to the root, and you go to God.
You can see that the nervous system is
like an upside-down tree. The root is up in the brain, and the
branches come to your body, downward toward the earth. So in
another sense, the more you use and follow your senses, your
desires, your wants, etc., which is your nervous system, the
more you go to Maya. That is the upside-down tree.
The more you meditate and close your
senses, you go to your brain and to your Soul, the greater you go to
God and realize Him.
Apparently this lady who asked the
question really did not want to know the answer. She left.
But, the answer is very clear. We have to overcome our
prejudices, cultures, and all of that again and open ourselves to
the truth of God and know God. What does He want? What
does He want to say? What does He tell us? Not what the newspapers and television
and the propaganda of this world is telling us the truth is, but
find the truth ourselves in a deeper level and teach it to others.
That is very important, and hopefully
one day even the media and all that in the world, will talk about
God and greater things, the truth, and not political maneuvering,
cultural biases, and all that we have created in this world, is
bringing great suffering to everyone, and is taking us away from the
deeper truth of the world.
All right, I guess that answers that
question about the swastika. Go to our website. Read the
book. Go the website of that other gentleman. Study what
it really means. Does it really mean what they say it means?
Or, does it mean something else, as everything also means something
else in the deeper level?
Go ahead, Brad.
Brad:
In the first couple of pages in THOTH, there is the
inverted heart symbol with the “Christus” around it. I was
wondering if you could give us an explanation of that symbol and its
origin.
Maitreya:
I do not know what the origin of it is. We found it in a book.
When I was reading THOTH, it came to me in a book.
I do not even remember what book it was, or where we got it from.
Even Sarah-ji who has been with me all along from the very beginning
does not remember.
I do not remember, I have seen it other
places also. Actually, there is another website, and a
gentleman told us that they have a link to our website in his
website, and he also has that symbol in his website.
Most probably it has a Jewish origin,
because it talks about “Yo Te Vo Teh,” or Yahweh in the middle, and
the fire comes out of it. It struck me very deeply. It
is beautiful.
The meaning came to me as I explain it
in
THOTH, that God is the fire of compassion. He is
the Father and Mother, and of course, the Son represents the Father
and Mother on earth. So the trinity is one because there is no
separation between the three.
You cannot separate God, Father, from
the creative forces, Mother, and the Son comes as
the representation of both. So they are really one.
There is only One God, and that is the Consciousness and the three
creative forces, which are one.
So I do not know what the origin is,
but the explanation is as given in THOTH. I do
not even know what was the original explanation of the person who
drew it. I do not remember that I saw any explanation about
it. It was just a picture in that book, or whatever it was
that we had at that time.
But, the explanation as it is given, it
sounds like God is fire, everything is flamed, and flaming, and fire
is the purifier. That is why they used to have all those
elaborate rituals, burnt offerings, etc., as is the water.
Later on, God modified the fires to water, to baptism. Instead
of being baptized by fire, you are baptized with water.
Before that it was the sacrifice of
man, of humans. When Abraham was told, “Do not kill your son,
but kill the lamb,” the sacrifice of humans was transferred to the
sacrifice of animals. The sacrifice of humans into the fire
was transferred to the sacrifice of animals.
When Christ came, none of them were
necessary any more but the purification was with water, which is
much milder, and you do not burn out and die in the process of
purification. So now, the baptism is to baptize
yourself into the Eternal Divine Path, to follow it, to
become perfect, and to become a Paravipra. Anytime you do the
ritual, as I said, you turn around from the world and you come to
The Reminder.
So the fire in that picture sounds like
the fire of purification, and God is the fire of compassion, which
burns all the impurities if you really open yourself to Him, and His
Grace will surely save you from many, many heartaches and headaches
that humans go through.
Eventually you realize that you really
do not need this world that much. The only thing you need is
the Communities of Light. The community will support
you, you will support the community, and you will base your life on
that premise.
Therefore, The Grace of God will come
and will purify you as much as you let Him do that. I hope
that makes sense to you and explains your answer.
We have a few minutes left of our time.
Again, go to our website and study our teaching.
This is a Call to those who have been
prepared for the last 12,000 years to come together to see that God
exists, God has sent all the Revelations, and to understand the Plan
of God in full, to realize the Eternal Divine Path, the unity
of all humans and religions, to come together as brothers and
sisters, bring the Communities of Light and the Kingdom Of
Heaven On Earth, and help this earth to heal itself.
We would like to reach out through the
Internet, through writing, through teaching, and through sending
people who teach. One of our members, as we were told last
night, will have a discussion in the room, Belief Zone, on the 30th
of this month.
I do not know, Brad, do you want to
come in and tell us a little bit about it? That would be
great. I do not know how much you want the people to know.
But, we heard it ourselves last night that you are going to have a
discussion there. Would you like to pick up the mic and tell
us about it? You do not have to if you do not want to.
Brad:
Yes, I happened to see where they have guest speakers in there from
time to time. I believe it is every Wednesday, is how they
schedule. So I asked the administrator of the room if I could
talk. As far as I know, it is on Wednesday, I believe
Wednesday at 9 PM EST. I haven’t heard back from them on the
exact scheduling.
After that, just a chance in fact after
that, I talked for a couple of hours in the room about the
Mission and tried to just kind of answer some general questions.
There is a lot of misinformation out there, so hopefully I put some
information out there that is the truth.
Maitreya:
Very good. We missed you in the business meeting last night.
Of course, all the information, other people knew about, and they
told us about that. That is great.
Yes, probably there is a lot of
misunderstanding and misinformation, and people have a lot of
concepts that probably are not according to the Mission’s
teaching. They feel that they know us. They know what is
in it. This Mission is much more than just going and
looking in the website a couple of minutes or hours even. It
takes a lifetime to completely fathom the depth and beauty of It.
We are very, very glad that God chose
us to bring this to humanity. We consider ourselves Blessed
and Graced by Him doing that. Whoever comes to this Mission,
is also Blessed and Graced.
We are not a cult. We are not
trying to bring destruction to humanity. Actually, it is the
Mission of peace, beauty, and great Revelation.
We also have decided to have, probably,
a talent show in a month or so in our room. So there is going
to be some advertisement going, telling you that you can come and
participate, if you want to participate in that. You can come.
Send us an e-mail and say that you have a talent and that, so people
see that we also have a lighter side than just pounding our teaching
on everyone.
That would be great to come and
participate if you want and know that we have even some talent in
the Mission, and they can present that to you through this
room.
So, it is an all-around Mission.
We are not even against music, but we recommend that music be
directed toward the higher self, the higher things, and Godly, so it
helps us to be(come) in higher consciousness. This is an
all-rounded Mission.
This is the Call to all of you to
go and find out about it, and come and help.
I enjoyed being with all of you and
everyone, and I hope you enjoyed it too. I will come here next
week. But, if there are not many questions, then we might go
back to the monthly Satsang. If you are enjoying to come here
and meditating with me, just tell us that. We will come
anyway, and we will sit and mediate, which that is fine too.
But, I am here mostly to answer the questions and expel the
misconceptions about the Mission, and explain the teaching.
You all have a God-week. See you
next week.
Sal-OM.
