Talks Excerpt 309. Swamiji says: What you give in love, you get back in love.
From Mother Radha’s notes, written at Swamiji’s feet.
What you give in love, you get back in love. So give and give and give. Feel it open your heart.
Begin by controlling the thoughts. Think of God, then your actions and words will be godly.
It is hard to control desire, the tanmatras are too subtle.
For six days sit and think, ‘I am God, I am perfect, I am divine, I am bliss Absolute,’ and see the change. As you change your thoughts miracles must happen. The power of the mantra is so strong, no evil person can come near you. You only attract people of the same vibration.
There is no such thing as guru and chela, all is Mother. Mother is everywhere. Where did I come from? Mother’s womb. Where did the Earth come from? Mother’s womb. She is in me and I am in Her. Similarly, the guru is in me and I am in him.
The best way to be a devotee is to have no pride, no anger, no jealousy. Destroy your own ego, crucify yourself, otherwise you will crucify the guru.
There is no guru, only God seated within you. Until I see all as God, as Mother, within and without, there is no philosophy, no high teaching, there is only this.
‘Raising’ the kundalini? Nonsense! As you raise your thought, so you raise the kundalini.
‘Ma, you take the form of the enemy as well as of the beloved. I salute you in both.’ See Her in everything.
The guru may be far from the disciple, but he may be sitting there with his mala and praying, ‘Ma, change her thoughts, change her thoughts,’ and perhaps not be concerned with the people near him.
