Video Part 1

About concepts to avoid being here; emptiness and form are the same; to be as you are, there are no rules; if it’s your destiny to sit in a cave then sit in a cave; silence is everywhere; everything flows in its own way – just knowing who you are in middle of all of it; you are what doesn’t change; missing the realization because of chasing experiences; all appearances are tests of love; about “false” Satsang-teachers and “false” seekers; we are already what we are searching for; about kids and school; you can serve best by awakening yourself; stay true to yourself; about survival; the realization of who dies when you die brings peace to the world; about Eli and Papaji; his own self looking back at him; grace; true prayers are being answered in mysterious ways; about Eli’s experiences with cancer; the pressure of self-importance fell away; willing to live and to die; never deny your own majesty; freedom is not in the realm of doing; when you’ re free in silence your are free to do whatever you want; may all beings be happy and free.

The ability to receive love in periods of stress and distress. Sometimes it takes the worst situations to show us what is possible. And then we have the choice to continue that way or go back, when the crisis is past. The old habit of looking for love, demanding love, or reacting hurt, when we’re not loved. This misses true love. Opening the gates of receiving love and giving it freely. This is to receive what’s here and to give what’s here. Then there is no other: it’s just a reflection of one self. Being able to receive and to give one self. This leads to uncovering whatever self hate may be here. The habit of asking, what’s wrong with the other? – In reality this is self hate projected on others. Leading wars is possible only when this propaganda of hating the other is functioning. All of our culture is based on the designating of the other: how is he? What’s he doing wrong? How should he be? What’s needed is uncovering our own inner propaganda, the propaganda of self hate. Then there is a choice. This generation has the chance of stopping the avoiding. The confession that we like drama, means the drama can never be the same again. The stage of our dramas gets bigger along with our capacity to handle them – until the whole universe unloads in our own song. Discovering the beauty in the unpleasant. So many notes that lead us directly to beauty: nature, a baby face, well-being. Yet the readiness to grow up also means giving up hope that one day it will always be that beautiful. That Mommy, Daddy, Guru or God will take care of it. What’s here? This reveals what has always been here, is always here. Taking a moment, not because it’s good or holy, but just as an opportunity of opening up to this. Doesn’t mean anything. You’re free of designating things – at least a relief. In this the whole drama dissolves. Gigantic love is happening. What can’t we handle? – Death yes? Alzheimer not? Everything comes out of yourself, body and thoughts, you can already handle everything. Consciousness and love are one: Satchidananda. Don’t make a religion out of it.
