Sri Bhagavan on How to Apply Teachings



Shri Bhagvan: "After your awakening you must learn to apply the teachings. Before awakening you cannot apply these teachings. For example one important teaching is stay with the ‘what is’. Experience the ‘what is’. Live with the ‘what is’. All this you cannot do unless you are awakened. But once you are awakened you must do it. You must just be aware of what is going on. That is possible only if you are awakened. And awareness is not a means to an end. It is an end in itself. The awakened one does not seek any end. He is just aware of the bird in the sky. He is aware of the fellow human being. That is all. But as he keeps doing this something else happens. Suppose you put a vegetable on a pan and keep on frying it the vegetable under goes a change. That is transformation.

Similarly attention or awareness is like heat. And the ‘what is’ undergoes a change. That change we call transformation. So the awakened person as he practices the teachings under the heat of attention the ‘what is’ undergoes a transformation. This transformed person moves into very high states. And in due course becomes god realized.

Awakening is like a torch. You have got to apply it and see what it is. If you do not see the ‘what is’ there is no use. Awakening is merely giving you a torch. We give you the torch. Making use of the torch is your job. Only a transformed person could become one with god. Not otherwise."

Sri Bhagavan Gave Me A Life Changing Course - SaiShruthi

▪ In the youth course when Dasaji told that our beliefs depends on perceptions and perceptions depends on events and second thing is big to small. ▪Even for a big problem there will be a small solution. ▪I prayed Sri Bhagavan to answer my questions and my situations what I am facing in my life. ▪Then Sri Bhagavan showed me a small situation which had taken place in my childhood at the age of 5-6 years. ▪Actually my grandfathers are 5 brothers and my grandfather is the elder one so he stopped his studies and made his brothers to study so all their families are well settled and grownup rich but our family was left over as a farmer's family. ▪So when we used to go to the functions and all family events, we are treated like poor and at that time I even want to play with my cousins and all as a child of the same age... But because of the situations they all used to avoid me and brother even to play with them also. Eventually we also stopped playing with them and star...

Man's victory lies in his surrender to God.

Sri Amma Bhagavan: We can expound this teaching at different levels. We will see one perspective only right now.      God's will is the Divine Will. What we see is the Divine Will. All things are happening automatically. Sun is rising in the east, seasons are coming, earth is revolving round the sun, you are waking up in the morning, you are getting hunger, thinking is happening etc. Therefore, what is happening is the Divine Will.      God has gifted man with the Free Will. Which means, man has the power to think whatever he wants, speak whatever he wants and can do whatever he wants to do. That is how one can design one's life. Throw flowers, flowers will fall on you; throw stones, stones will fall on you. Thus you are the creator of your own destiny. But, you are full of hurts, ego, jealousy, anger, hatred, traumas etc. hence your thoughts, words and actions result in such decisions leading to a particular kind of life.      ...

Vision of Oneness

Dear Bhagavan, we have heard you say that vision of Oneness is to set humanity free. Could You elucidate on this? Sri Bhagavan: "Nature has thrown up a tremendous variety of species. The physical component provided by nature could be considered the hardware. If evolution of life were compared to a day then humanity suppose to have emerged in the last few moments. This tremendously advanced spieces of human kind has created a software, based on the hardware provided by nature. This software consists of beliefs, perceptions, religions, myths, cultures and any number of stories on which it runs. The sum total of this psychological content could be termed the software that is running the spieces. A significant section of this software is limiting in nature and is detrimental to the experience of living. One of the most defective softwares that has become part of the human system is the illusory identity of the thinker or self. The vision of Oneness is to set humanity totally and ...
