THROW A TANTRUM AT THE COSMOS
Whatever is become stagnant in you, becomes pain, never suffering.
I will tell you the difference between pain and suffering: the exact actual happening of your life is a suffering which never makes you stagnant. But constantly remembering you had suffering and making yourself painful makes you stagnant. A remembrance which puts you into emotional turmoil, that makes you stagnant.
Do not allow any form of stagnation in your life, for any reason. I am not here just to make you guys as a good human. No! I am here to make you guys as super human! It is a possibility! Being human is great, human values are great, no doubt, but don't say that itself is super. No!
If you say that is super, you are a duper. Don't try to kill the mystical possibilities, the super human possibilities, of traditional Hinduism!
I wanted all of you to do a lot of service, charity, and be good, but don't stop there. When will you stop?
Become Shiva. It is only after you become Shiva,
But you can't stop! I am sitting in such restful awareness, don't think I stopped! You can sit in restful awareness in your flight seat, but you have not stopped. You can run as fast as you can in a stagnant bullock cart, you are not moving anywhere. More than what you are doing, where you are matters for your life progress.
You can be doing all types of kriyas, yoga, pranayamas, sitting inside a bullock cart, where the bullock is not even tied, but you are not going to go anywhere.
You can be as restless as possible, a s active as possible, you can be as pulling and pushing as much as possible, but you will be only in one place.
You can be lying, resting, after sipping a cup of juice, but if you are lying in the flight, you are moving, you are flying! My sangha is a flight! What you do does not matter; where you are matters! The human possibilities does not stop with human values.
Seek about everything, you have a right! You have a right to question the whole Cosmos!
I am giving you a simple secret: if you have stomach pain, don't try to think, 'Why is there stomach pain? What did I eat, is it indigestion or gastric? What is the reason?' Don't think that way. Try to ask, 'Why, first of all, this very habit of eating and digesting?'
Start questioning the roots, you will be declared as a rebellion by the Cosmos. All your needs will be met. If a child cries loud they get the attention first! If you think, ' I should do this pranayama, that yoga, take this herb for my stomach pain.' Yes, you may get your stomach pain cured, but you will have a headache tomorrow.
Question the very root. Always go to the extreme of questioning. When you question the very root, 'Why this question of eating, digesting, and getting energy from food?' When you go to this extreme, you will be the child crying louder. The cosmos will reply to you, not only get to get rid of the pain, but get power to become a Nirahari (to live without food and water)!
The child who cries louder not only gets the candy, but the keys to the store room. Whenever you feel, you can go eat, don't cry, and don't create a mess!
Learn how to throw a tantrum with the Cosmos. Question the very root, the very source. Why do we have this body which has a possibility for disease? Why? So let your whys go to the depths.
Just one child, Naciketa throwing a tantrum, caused Yama Deva (God of death) to sit and obey Naciketa! Learn how to throw a tantrum with the cosmos, because you have a right over it! Cosmos cannot just brush you aside, push you aside, saying, 'you throw a tantrum, I will do my job.'
Seeking is nothing but your ability to throw a tantrum and get the attention of the Cosmic Mother. Don't be arrogant out of your seeking. When you are seeking, arrogance will not even happen.
When you stop seeking, you settle down for just a little happiness, charity, being good, little love, and compassion. All of these are great, but not greatest.
Experience the depths of your being, awaken the Shiva in you. Be a seeker and feel blessed you have a Guru who constantly deepens your seeking. A Guru who never just puts you in some social charity and makes you forget your seeking.
Even my charity work is based on seeking, making more and more seekers. I do charity only in that line!
Stop the worship of ignorance, never stop your seeking for any reason. Let your seeking continue. Keep your seeking alive!
Nothing should stop your seeking. Not your wealth, name and fame, even your good charitable activities should not stop your seeking or make you worshipper of ignorance!
FACING DIFFICULTIES
A person who is seeking, should be put through all possible difficulties. When you are interested in something then you should be put in all possible difficulties. Then automatically the taking it for granted will not happen whether it is money, knowledge or enlightenment.
When there is no difficulty outside, the mind creates it inside. When you conquer difficulties outside, you cross the strong engram inside.
Constantly be in crisis, or create one, or come to me, I will constantly put you in crisis! Go on attending and solving the crisis.
In Tamil there is a proverb, which one Sadhu used to constantly repeat to me, eternally you should be in crisis, so you will live forever.
Constantly facing difficult moments, conquering the outer situations, not only do you come out of the outer world problems, many patterns inside you breaks.
If you are not taking responsibility and living, the patterns inside you will not break. All those patterns will be there just fresh.
Patterns will be broken only when you handle outer world situations.
