Baba’s words on action

 

But he who has left himself entirely on Parama Purusa, Parama Purusa has special responsibility for him... It is the duty of Parama Purusa to save the prestige of the Bhakta, and the duty of the Bhakta is to leave everything on Him.

 

When an infant starts walking, the parent first asks him, guides him to walk a little. He tries, walks, but falls. Then the parent advances and lifts him up in his lap. So also God. Make the slightest efforts and He will pick you up and place you in His lap.

 

Truly, as long as we have life, we have power. Whatever power we have, you must utilize it to the maximum. After you have done your best and there is still for more power, then God will give you more...

For Brahmic meditation, a man does not have to be a hermit of the forest. The only stipulation being: Only go on behaving rightly and properly with every Brahmic manifestation of this elliptical universe, remove or rectify the mental disease of the criminals, penalize or prescribe some other reformative remedies, cure the sick of their sickness, attend to them and arrange for their medicine and diet. Just remember only this that you have to behave properly and reasonably with all - with every entity of this world. Pay special attention to the word 'properly'. By 'proper behavior', I mean, in which there is neither anger nor jealousy, neither attraction nor aversion.

The human heart is sweat, because its sentimentality is sweet. And as the human heart is sweet, the human mind is also sweet. However bad a person may be, when he or she remains in his or her usual composure, he or she remains a sweet and sublime personality.

The one that you see as an ordinary man by your external sight, is actually a conscious entity if you see him with your internal sight.

He scolds and punishes considerably. For simple administration, one has to become strict. And one who administrate the whole universe has got to be terrible. A little fear is also essential. Then all will do their work. Yes. the love should be more than fear but there must be fear also.

It is action that makes a man great. Be great by your Sadhana, by your service, by your sacrifice.

It is better to die following Bhagavata Dharma than to lead an easy-going life of animal's Dharma.

We should always respect our Ideology if we are to become true human beings. The ideologist is a man who always acts according to his Ideology. If by following an Ideology I die and die again, let it be - I will not care - I will stick to my Ideology.

There is no permanent death of any entity. The rhythmic sweetness of rivers lives eternally in the surging waves of the vast oceans... In fact all entities are living eternally in Supreme Blessedness within the vast bosom of the Supreme Entity, from the state of beginninglessness to the state of endlessness. Nothing is lost, nothing was lost, nothing ever will be lost.

Do your worldly duties, build a stable society upon a sound economy, fight against injustice, and build a secure base for both individuals and the collectivity. Be pragmatic and remain united against all evil forces. Unite the different groups in society upon a common platform etc...

To become Great, develop modesty, honesty, courage and strength of character.

You have reached the proper time - now firmness is the need of the hour. Be like a monolithic rock.

I am complete in Myself, and I want every man to be complete in himself. I am like an arrow, clear, pointed.

To err is not bad, but not to take any steps to correct one's faults, that is bad.

There are people whom we call cruel because of their hard-heartedness. But if those very wicked persons go deeper into their beings, they will no longer remain wicked or hard-hearted. Mostly, they take only a superficial view of life. Had they gone deep into their minds, had they tried to realize Parama Purusa with their sentimentality, they would certainly have felt the presence of the undercurrents of His softness. The difficulty with them is that they never go deep into their sentimentality and hence they have a tendency towards hard-heartedness.

Paramatma simply wants to see in you whether you have got a genuine desire to attain Him or not. He is testing you every moment, at every step and is seeing whether love for Him has awakened in you or not.

There should not be inconsistency between thought and speech. And when this is achieved, the celestial love is awakened.

What you choose to become, you will become...

You should forget what you do not want.

...although everything in this world is sweet, people have to taste that sweetness through severity, harshness and struggle. People must pass through struggle in order to experience the taste of Supreme Sweetness.

At a time of great difficulty, when agony swells people's hearts and they are unable to restraint themselves, the sufferers should say only one thing to Parama Purusa:" O my Parama Purusa, the life of my life, the pupil of my eyes, give me the strength to endure".

You should think a thousand times before you speak. Be a miser with words. Your words should mean more than your existence. You should be ready to die for those words.

If a mean creature in hell weeps and says, "O God, now I can no longer bear the torture. Save me». Then God will listen to him and protect him as He would protect anyone else.

Where there are 16 Points, I reside there.

...the individual should have a fraternal emotion and attachment with the external world. This sentimental contact with the external world is a must.

It's a bigger thing to put one lesson into action than to hear many. You should put into action every lesson in your life.

You have to solve all the problems in the world today. You should prepare detailed plans and programs and act accordingly. You must be the vanguard.

For bhaktas all actions are a part of their psycho-spiritual practice, whereas for karmiis actions are merely seen as actions. Those people whose actions are indistinguishable from devotion are true devotee .

Only devotees can expand Bhaeravi Shakti because only they cherish the desire for supreme union with the Cognitive Faculty. They do not ask the Supreme Being for wealth, opulence, fame, or children, but pray, « O Lord, please manifest Yourself fully in me. Make me Yours, O Lord. » They continue to pray like this until they merge in the Supreme.

The main factor is the clear awareness of one’s goal. Your own excellence depends on the excellence of your goal.
