contemplating over my experiences

21 Feb 2007, Dubai, UAE

I thanked my teacher again for inspiring me further with profound messages. As you said rightly there are plenty of people who call themselves teachers and healers and who find excuses to spite others.

I wanted to share something which i am sure most people already know.There is vedic text which has state a powerful set of phrases or chants called ‘maha vakyas’, and the term Aham Brahmasmi’ features in that. it means i am pure consciousness. this is answer for who am i? now knowing that we are aware of the answer in theory doesnt make us awakened. Sri Ramana maharshi the greatest self inquiry master has explained that self inquiry is the fastest and easiest path. his explainations were very brief and he could awaken people just by glancing at them. even swami rama visited him and appreciated this great sage who used to live in the turiya state all the time. ramana maharshi always recommended self enquiry rather than contemplating on the readily available answer. now there were several students of his, some even meditated for 20 years and nothing happened, while a few sat for an hour and were awakened. This signifies the impact of grace versus effort.

Now what my teacher said is profound too. Stop effort, and stop that stop too:) When I contemplated again, I found that so profound, humble and god sent to me.

I am currently going through a lot in my energy field. Suddenely i feel like the universe is taking an appraisal of me before granting me something that i sought for many life times. I have surrendered completely, let God be the goldsmith and me the lowly hammer:)

I sometimes wonder why my teacher was chosen to be sent into my life at such a crucial phase. Do I have a past life connection? I am sure the teacher knows a lot of things about the divine plan and must be letting me discover it bit by bit.

I look back at the life that i lead in this incarnation. I am just an average boy down the street. there is nothing spectacular that made me stand out in any way. but i always felt that there was something big waiting for me, and that kept me going. well, i have talked enough. I owe the universe a lot for being able to receive so much love and compassion. I will do justice to that by paying back .
