the spiritual path and more she advances, less she will be able to share<br />

her experiences. It was also said that Shivaratri was a time reference for<br />

her but God was not bound by the time and space. When Baba said<br />

'later' the information got processed by her mind using the time scale that<br />

our mind is familiar with. Baba said "This is a common error reflective<br />

of mind's limitation. Same error is made when human beings try to know<br />

God through their mind alone. God is infinite, mind is finite. How then<br />

the finite understand the infinite? You can feel God but you cannot prove<br />

or disprove Him with your mind."<br />

Today while coming back from work she had a car accident in the<br />

parking lot. The other car rapidly reversed out of the parked position and<br />

hit her moving car on the passenger side. Other person was obviously at<br />

fault, and her one month old car's bumper broke. <strong>Dolly</strong>'s car also got<br />

damaged. Both parties involved in the accident got out of their cars to<br />

see the damage and talk to each other. At that time one of their<br />

colleagues passed by and asked if that other person needed any help or<br />

ride etc. This made <strong>Dolly</strong> realize that how she was not thinking of<br />

offering help to this person, only thing she could think was whether this<br />

person had insurance, how big was the damage to her own vehicle.<br />

There was no communication from Baba on this, but <strong>Dolly</strong> felt that the<br />

only purpose of this silly accident was for her to realize that she lacked<br />

compassion and she must still be too materialistic to pay more attention<br />

to the car than to the person. This was a lesson to her to cultivate more<br />

compassion.<br />

She did not wake up early to meditate today. I, <strong>Gyani</strong>, was going to<br />

Mexico tomorrow for a week. Today she did only Puja. While doing<br />

Puja Baba started speaking to her. "You will see God as one." As part of<br />

her normal Puja she touched the feet of all the deities in the mandir and<br />

with her closed eyes saw a lit up image of the deities. This time no<br />

matter which deity's feet she touched she saw the same sized picture<br />

frame outline as that of Baba's and this was filled with blue color.<br />

"It is OK if you did not meditate today. You need to write the details<br />
