We all are chanting...The melodious tune soothens our mind . But after the chanting , we are not able to hold on to the joy. Are we in a position to sustain the joy we experience during chanting. The main hurdle is the me and mine...

******


Papa---This life is meant for experiencing true , ever-existent Bliss.

*****

Though we are involving in various disciplined, we are not able to maintain the connection...

********

Me and mine plays a very important role. This is the main stumbling block in our spiritual journey

*****

When Papa says renunciation, he means the renunciation of me and mine...He did not mean, mere leaving home etc..

******

The mind automatically brings out prejudice, preconceived notions etc . During the Ramnam session, we are very peaceful.... Sometimes during the session, sometimes immediately after the session, we are harassed by downpulling thoughts...

******

Me and mine has to go completely. How to do it. Me to me must be replaced by me to we. 

*******

Suppose we are hearing a wonderful music,.... at that time, me and mine recedes. That is why , we feel, it is wonderful. ...

*****

Papa----To swim in the wide ocean, Ram knew Ramdas needed strength and courage for gaining which He wanted His untrained slave to undergo severe discipline and this under His direct guidance and command

******

We are clear about everything. But we are not taking the first step

*****

Papa--- Thou art all in all to Thy slave. Men are deluded when they say, "I do this I do that . This is mine. That is mine." All things are done by Thee oh Ram..All things are thine.Thy slave's one prayer to Thee is take him under Thy guidance and remove His "I-ness"...

******

Why did you not make me know all these things...Why don't you stop this hide and seek business...

*****

Any thought that arises is attributed to Him ...

******

You must have the courage to take the plunge

******

All preparatory measures are understood

We know about the hurdles

But we are not ready to take the first step

******

Ramnam with the right perspective is the first step

What is right perspective

To chant knowing He is within us and He is making me chant

******

Only when our prayer is original, we will know if it is heard

******

Every now and then Papa resorts to solitude... Because he was in direct touch with jagath, God facilitated solitude ... For inward journey, solitude is a must. It must intense and undisturbed.
