Humanity is deeply in the midst of a transition from an age of outer darkness into the Aquarian Age of Light, Wisdom, and Purity as we go from the Kali Yuga into Sat Yuga (Vedic astrology). This is often a painful time to transcend the afflictions of madness, suicide, drug addiction, health epidemics, particularly the nightmare of the Covid-19 pandemic as a manifestation of the Revelation or a living version of Dante's Purgatory here on earth. Is this an easy transition? You tell me. We need to discover and focus on our inner light.
Gulp!!! Indeed that's a whole lot for our minds to swallow. How do we transcend our thinking minds to gain Wisdom and Beingness? How do we find a way out of these crazy pandemic times and gain clarity and peace of mind? An analogy to self-quarantine is that we are all literally, being sequestered in the mountain caves of our solitary thinking minds, many of us pursuing madness, with only a few of us seeking enlightenment.
Here are a couple of clues to your Journey up the mountain to find your personal path. Dr. Rammurti S. Mishra, M.D. (Sri Brahmananda Sarasvati) would often teach us, “Enlightenment is Your Very Nature,” just realize this. Most importantly he taught us, “When You Pray, God Listens to You, and When You Meditate You Listen to God.”
The answers are already within you, you just need to find them, and discover how. Who have you been listening to these days?
When we first met Baba Ram Dass (Richard Alpert, Ph.D.), who wrote “Be Here Now” in NYC, in 1972 he told us about the Book of Coins, particularly that good and evil are different sides of the selfsame coin, serving God's purpose. Our plane needs every Messiah it can lay its hands on.
Ram Dass told us his Guru taught a simple formula.
Love Everyone,
Serve Everyone, Remember God –
Neem Karoli Baba
