Returning to Goloka

enlightened Guru. Maharishi accepted me and cast his protection around me.
I was instantly freed from the attacks of the rakshasas. My whole life changed
on that day and I felt clean, new and like a much-loved newborn baby. My
little house filled up with beautiful, benefic loving celestial beings. Guru Dev
said they wanted to see the “new baby.”
On that day my Atman released me into the care of Guru Dev - its job
was completed. The Atman is responsible for designing lives for us, based on
our accumulated “mountain ranges” of karma, to give us the best chance for
finding our Guru Dev and escaping from the maze of our karma and the
endless cycles of birth and death. However, the Atman can only lead us to the
water, but will not make us drink! We have to make the conscious choice to
abandon our lives of sensuality and physical ambitions and surrender to our
higher intelligence for protection, help and guidance.
Guru Dev totally changed my life. He reminded me of the technique,
based on that sutra he told me about in 1990, by which to communicate with
him. It is very important to have a close relationship with Guru Dev, not only
for His protection and guidance, but because this deep bond of love between
Guru and disciple is the only anchor of stability in life during the years of
emotional and mental purification that is necessary to reach Brahman
Consciousness.
The goal of human existence is Moksha, then to live in constant
communication with the Creator, Lord Brahma, and act spontaneously in
accord with His intention and will. However, it is very difficult to maintain a
clear consciousness channel of two-way communication with the Divine
