it mean? The desires and anxieties don't let you go beyond just saying one
God or just believing in one God. But if one remains detached from desires,
then the Lord who is 'One', you can meet. One should have one desire Le. to
meet the Lord. One should remain detached from other worldly desires.
One should remain in the love of the Lord, remembrance of His name
and not go into forgetfulness. Then one should stop worrying about other
things. What the Lord does is good and we should accept it as good.
In this way, the mind gets engrossed in the love of the Lord and all fears
and anxieties go. 0 YOhJ1, the ocean that I have said 'the trench full of water
named riches', one can swim across in this way. Yes, one can swim across in
this way. While living and swimming, neither we get drowned nor we die.
This is called winning over death while living.
Machchin,der said: 0 fortunate saint, a person can either live in desires or
in despair. To remain detached from desires is impossible. One lives in desires.
People are dependent on .each other. People desire something from each
other. Everybody lives in such desires. The mother is brinhJ1ng up the son with
the desire that he will hJ1ve comfort when he becomes grown up.
Businessman earns with the desire that the money earned will hJ1ve comforts.
We YOhJ1S are in despair that the world is perishable. There is no gain in
the passions of the world. So, we live in forests and in despair. We cannot go
on the 'path of renunciation' by living in the family. So, it is essential to leave
the house. From your talk, it appears, that you are living in a higher state of
meditation, but you have not dressed like a sadhu, you have no sihTIlet or
symbol of a sadhu. How do you control your wandering mind? In my view
you look for a spiritual guide and get guidance from him. Then you can live
in despair.
Guru: 0 YohJ1, how is your going to the family people and asking for
money justified when you have renounced them? How is it renunciation and
living in despair? You go and beg where you should not go because you
consider them worth renouncing. We also beg but we beg from the benevolent
Lord and we pray that He may bless us with His name. To ask for food or to
inform the people that you have come, you blow the trumpet. We also blow a
shell and the people listen to it but that is not shell. That is the discourse I am
hJ1ving to the world that the body doesn't go to the Lord but the mind goes. So,
you attach your mind to the Lord. Remember Him.
I have a spiritual guide, the Lord, who has created the world and such
hJ1gantic task he can do it in no time. Then the Lord has created this body
from earthly elements, like water and air, and has hJ1ven life to it. In this way,
the earthly body has become living. Then this living is not with blindness. He
