G Advisory As we grow through life,
Things start shedding away.
Yes?
You used to play with your little Barbie doll and you used to make fake tea and give your mother fake tea.
You remember those days?
It shed away automatically.
You don't hate your Barbie doll.
You don't hate it.
You just grow out of it.
You had very pretty baby frogs.
You just grow out of them.
You grow out of things in life.
Very clear?
Similar journey happens on the spiritual path.
You grow out of the beginner level automatically.
Yes?
So there's nothing to feel guilty.
You can't hold on to your baby frogs and your baby dolls or your primary school or even your high school because now you've graduated to university.
Yeah?
So that is beautiful.
It was my foundation.
It helped me develop till here and now it's time to shed it and move higher.
It's that simple.
Don't complicate things.
It is.
.
.
Maturity happens similarly whether it is the material world or the spiritual side.
Yeah?
So don't get confused.
If I keep taking on these assignments,
I now have time to keep coming back and that has become priority now for me.
It's like if not now,
When?
Yes.
Good.
Good.
This is the highest priority.
Your enlightenment will be the biggest gift that you can give to this world.
Not your seva.
Not your money.
How much are you.
.
.
Even if you're going to give million dollars.
No.
It's not equal to your enlightenment.
Are you understanding the difference?
Yes?
So no seva,
No charity,
Nothing else can you give to the world bigger than your own enlightenment and if a thirst has come up naturally in you,
Then take it as the flow.
Yeah?
The flow has its own intelligence and my little intelligence cannot comprehend something that is so supreme.
If a thirst has arisen in me,
Then that is the way I should go.
Even if it means dropping certain things and that's okay.
That's a part of life that's going to happen at every stage in life.
From primary school,
You went to high school.
You dropped the primary school uniform and the friends.
From high school,
You went to university.
You had to let go of those books that were very dear to you.
After university,
If you went into PhD,
You had to let go.
Yes?
You move on in life,
You get married,
You go to your husband's house,
You let go of your parents.
Are you understanding?
Can there be anything bigger than that?
Yeah?
So,
There are stages in life.
The same stages apply to the spiritual path.
There is a beginner level on the spiritual path.
You will drop the beginner level to go to the intermediate level.
There is no option.
You can't say,
No,
I hold on to my school books.
I'm keeping my alphabet book A,
B,
C,
D,
E,
F.
What's the point?
Yeah?
Like that only,
You cannot hold on to previous things.
They drop,
They drop,
They drop,
They drop and you keep moving.
Take it as the flow.
This is the highest.
Having the thirst to get enlightened here and now is like a boon.
It's a blessing and very few people are blessed with this thirst.
Very few people come with this kind of question.
Everybody comes with,
Oh,
My child does this,
My husband does this,
My mother is like that.
What to do with these things?
People come to me more like coming to a psychotherapist.
Yeah?
You are the true joy of a spiritual teacher.
