DAILY MESSAGES Series I 451) The greatest of opportunities rising to the
level of grace are often refused or pushed aside by a petty excuse of pride. 452) In life the form of status determines
whereas in Mother the content of attitude determines. Man in low status and
attitude finds it difficult to believe that his rise is possible by raising
his inner attitude, because it is difficult for him to wean himself away from
the low attitude of his of status. 453) He interprets his difficulty in giving up
his low attitudes as the difficulty to raise himself to the higher status. 454) 'Supermind is the Nature of the Divine
Being'. If so, what is Nature? Form acquiring Individuality from
the essentiality of original formlessness is Nature. 455) As Nature creates individualities and
progresses through it, and progress is for the individualities to merge,
Nature resorts to the method of contradiction. 456) Sincerity is that inner vibration which
receives the statement that everything is HE as a literal truth, not as a
conceptual one. 457) Human sincerity is insincerity, because man
is sincere to his own interests. 458) The highest of human values like love and
sympathy and confidence are at best expressions of behaviour and have nothing
lasting in them. 459) Raising your values to the level of the
impersonal, the individual shades off into nothingness; still to know the
value of the individual's interest to the Divine is to know the MARVEL the
world is. 460) Interest
energises MAN; it is interest that keeps the man away from the Divine. To
lose the human interest and acquire the Divine interest is to convert the
human nature into divine nature. This is to shift from the vital to the
psychic. 461) Life is organised in several layers.
Surrender is to move from a lower level of organisation to a higher level of
organisation, from the human to the Divine. 462) Support from people of lower consciousness
is not support, but will lower your consciousness. 463) The events in the world are determined by
the Supermind and they are harmonious. Human determinations are from habits,
attitudes and opinions which are harmonious as long as they are stronger than
their environment. That is why the problems are solved by moving towards the
Supermind's determinations, i.e. towards better habit, higher attitude and
wider opinion. 464) When a problem is solved by one of the
known avenues, it is faith that is at work. Grace acts through an unknown
avenue. 465) Concentration is to collect the unformed
pure energy in one place. Consecration is to direct the act formed out of
that energy towards the divine intention. 466) The world has an unfailing physical
organisation. In man it has two aspects, viz. surface and the depth. 467) The depth decodes the surface but they are
organised in the opposite directions. 468) Results in the depth are instantaneous, on
the surface slow, uncertain and negative. 469) Great men arise from time to time acting
either in the depth or on the surface, or in the depths having an impact on
the surface. 470) Socrates and Newton are those whose
enlightenment is given to the depths only. The world is still trying to
discover their wisdom in practice. 471) Jesus, Buddha, Shankara are those who
enriched the depths, still having a very profound effect on the surface, if
not the ultimate effect. 472) Shakespeare, Valmiki, Vyasa are in the
depths having a most profound, a near ultimate effect on the surface. 473) Thomas Alva Edison and Marconi discovered
in the depths, brought it to the surface, having the ultimate effect on the
very surface on daily life. 474) Mind takes long to have its effect, whereas
vital has immediate effect and the physical has the fullest immediate effect. 475) If any full immediate effect is to be
produced, the ultimate knowledge must be converted into a physical product.
It is not enough to create literature out of it. 476) The 100 million jobs is a social product
which the society in general uses. Surely it will have a great social effect. 477) Computer, electric bulb, phone, nail polish
are individual products. It is possible for us to bring down the Process of
creation to touch the life of the individual as a usable, material,
commercial product so that HE, the individual, will come directly, right into
the process. Such a movement will straight away become worldwide. 478) Just today the several products that spread
so do not express the ABSOLUTE. They express a social absolute or
technological absolute. 479) Social, technical absolutes may or may not
have negative effects either in the atmosphere or in the society. 480) To discover a material, commercial product
that expresses the highest reality,
the Absolute is possible. It will be accepted by the world readily. That is to take MOTHER to all
humanity. 481) There is a qualification for discovering
that. He should have discovered such a product or strategy in his own life,
i.e. a product that expresses his highest spiritual achievement in daily
life. The sign that it is so is his capacity for equality and its
absoluteness of use. 482) In other words, he, in his own life, should
be a complete Master of all that he wishes to do. 483) One who is willing to work on himself at
the most irresistible point of temperament makes a beginning. 484) His qualification is indicated by many
other things too. 1) The complex he suffers from will vanish suddenly showing
a physical capacity in the body where it was absent earlier. He will be
physically able to perform the act he is so far not capable of; 2) His oppressive social emotions will
suddenly disappear and he will be treated genuinely in the opposite way, e.g.
you will be respected in an area where you were disrespected; 3) A weight
will be off the mind and a sense of ever-expanding freedom will dawn
suddenly; 4) In an area where
there was a 100% long-standing inability in organisational matters, it will
suddenly turn into an ability, e.g. a coveted elusive buyer will seek you. 5)
In whichever field it shows, it is characterised by suddenness (99%),
dramatic reversal, ushering in of freedom, great relief, greater joy, a sense
of life fulfilment similar to a car driver in India getting a car of his own,
a man rejected by a woman sought after by her. The ability will express in
the body itself as new-found ability for the very flesh to enjoy. 485) It is enough it is tested in one such area,
though it is possible to test in all areas. 486) As far as the inherent power of this method
goes it has no difference between an individual achievement and national
accomplishment, between winning national elections and dominating physically
the wife who fully dominated him till now. 487) Physical ego is the most difficult to get
rid of. The roots of the ego are in the thinking mind. Ego starts from the mind as
coordinating intelligence and reason. Hence the roots are there. It extends
to the vital and physical. By their grossness ego sticks there with tenacity. Ego is born in animals or men in the
measure mind is formed. 488) To destroy ego one needs a force as great
as that which formed the ego originally. Man should first rise above the ego
and centre himself in the pure mind to try to destroy the ego. It is
difficult and man is lazy. 489) Surrender is an attitude of the SOUL and
therefore more difficult to acquire. Once a little of it is acquired, ego
begins to dissolve by the touch of Mother to whom our surrender is offered.
Man's effort to dissolve his ego is egoistic. 490) The child is innocent because of its
ignorance. Man becoming innocent as the child consciously rising above his
knowledge, is conscious innocence that is pure goodness. Pure goodness that
is conscious Innocence is Surrender. 491) To believe that another is incapable of a
disloyalty which you have is not nobility of character or a certain
blindness. It is the pride of egoism that blinds. 492) The right discipline carried to a great
extent, in Mother's work, will cross a border and become rigid losing its
value. It is better to break it at that point. (Abusing others solves the
problems). 493) In a subtle atmosphere which the devotees
carry, negative forces act automatically and without a moment's pause.
Positive forces too can act likewise when they are of the same intensity. 494) Presently positive forces move by our
conscious initiation while the negative, evil, and hostile move on their own. 495) Mother's moments come to us on their own by
our intense aspiration. In any field it takes us to the
acme. 496) In writing, one's books outsell all
previous records. 497) In politics it takes you directly to the
top, the very top. 498) In knowledge, it just outstrips ALL known
knowledge available. 499) HER moments come to us in a universal
dimension, which in our circumstances shrink to worldly width and the pity is
we consciously shrink it to our own width. 500) Receiving HER moments, coming out of our
own shell, it can retain some of its splendour. |
