Why relationships at all?

Bhagavan, if we are in love there is a fear of losing the dear one. If we are not in love then we suffer from loneliness then why should there be relationship if it’s going to cause suffering?

You are in love precisely because you have the fear of losing it. You never value a thing if you do not have the fear of losing it. So, everything in this universe is a paradox. If there is a front, there is a back. If there is a high, then there is a low. That is how the Universe is structured. Unless you have the fear of losing your friend or your spouse or your children for some reason or the other you would not be able to love them and there is loneliness. So, you have got to love. This love is sustained by the threat that you are going to lose the person either through sickness or whatever it would be. That’s all there is to life and the beauty of life is if you could see this and inevitability of the situation; you would start accepting it and In fact, you would fall in love.

Actually, there is no problem with the given situation. The problem is you are not able to accept the “what is”. The “what is” is whatever is there at that point of time and nothing can be done about it. So, once you realize that you would accept it and when you accept it love spontaneously arises in your heart. “Cultivating a virtue” is of no use except helping you fit into society. Trying to be good, to be kind, to be generous all this would not help you in becoming awakened. Because, it is not true to you. That’s why, we often say if you are not awakened do not behave like one. If you are not a Mahatma do not behave like a Mahatma. You don’t have to compare yourself with Gandhi, Christ or a Budha. There is no need for you to feel bad about it. You are you and there is nobody else like you.

You are unique with all your jealousy, your anger, you hatred and whatever else is there. You should be able to see your own anger, your own jealousy like you see an object. That is possible when you become nonjudgmental. Then everything would remain as it is. It would not be what you think they are. Remember!!! These things are put there by the Universe. The flow of Universe has produced you. You have to go with it, Live with it, Experience it and enjoy it. An awakened person is one who is not trying to become anybody else. He is himself. The problem with you is you are trying to change. It is like trying to straighten up a dog’s tail. You will never be different. When you actually see the impossibility of change, accepting yourself and loving yourself happens. You don’t accept or love, it just happens.

He participated in Shri Bhagavan’s divya mangala darshan and prayed for his dreams to come true.Anna Hazare visited the Oneness University which brings Oneness in world and appreciated the goal of University.

His life started from a poor village which is placed in Maharashtra, India. His helping nature made him as renowned social activist. Anna Hazare heard of Amma Bhagavan’s vision of Oneness and visited Oneness University.

ONENESS UNIVERSITY IN ANNA HAZARE WORDS:

I spoke to Bhagavan for one hour. I experienced that there are so many universities in our country; no one university is teaching about liberation in mankind. When I came here I got to know that complete transformation in human being occurs here, which is also important for world. End to his talk.

Since thousands of years human being suffering and only solution for this is enlightenment. Enlightenment state has been experienced by very few people. To give complete enlightenment to human beings god incarnated in human form i.e., Amma Bhagavan. Amma Bhagavan showers grace on everyone who believes in GOD and who respect human relationships.

Causeless Joy.....

I am really very grateful to my beloved Amma Bhagavan for giving me lots and lots of experiences which are transforming my life...the latest in this list after the freedom from thoughts, and the feeling of a higher self or the divine consciousness in me, is the Causeless Joy or the Ananda.

There is an abundance of joy almost all the time within me. I can feel it all through and I am enjoying every moment of my life. There is no real reason for this newly felt ananda in me, it is there, it is just coming on its own. Each experience is much greater than every others. Waiting for many more like these

Thanks again dear Amma Bhagavan for such experiences. What can I do really to show my gratitude for you? Anyone interested in going to the Oneness university to get out of such problems and experience the divine, if you need any help, please let me know and I will do my best to help you.

Let us all Pray and give Deeksha for Japan

This is the message from Sri Bhagavan:

"Japan would soon overcome the present crisis and emerge stronger in all spheres of human endeavour.

The crisis would also help Japan emerge as an Awakened nation. Prayers are going on at the Oneness temple to help the victims of the crisis as well as for the liberation of those who left us.

Oneness deeksha givers in Japan should, with the help of deeksha liberate people from the traumas caused by the crisis. One can feel the tremendous love of people from all over the world for the very lovable Japanese people."

Deekshas for a favorable resolution of the situation in Japan

occurs at 6 am Japan time [This would be 2:00pm PDT - and of course recommended to send deeksha any time]

The greatest gift I ever received.....

Way long back in September 2003, when I happened to visit Sri Bhagavan and Sri Amma, I asked personally that I need them as my Antaryamin.....

Today, after the Mukthi Utsav, as promised in the course, I can feel that a higher self or the divine consciousness ( in my case, I know and believe it is Sri Bhagavan) has settled down in my heart. I can see that there is someone with me all the time and above it, he loves me to the greatest extent, he helps every moment of my life whenever I ask him for something. My request could be as small as getting a bus right away to very big ones as well.

This is the greatest experience I have ever had in life. I do not see there can be anything much greater or bigger gift than having the divine with you all the time loving you, helping you, becoming your friend and a close inmate.

Bhagavan, I am waiting for that moment when I not only feel your presence in me but also will be able to hear back what you speak to me......

Guys, I request everyone to attend the Mukthi Utsav, spare 2 days of your life and believe you will be happy life never ever before. All gratitude to Amma and Bhagavan for helping us with such great things in life which are not possible without them.

At the Lotus Feet of My Amma Bhagavan,
Vamsi Grandhi

Mukthi Utsav - an amazing course

I attended the Mukthi Utsav on Feb 24,25. I have been attending several events since 1996 including the Mahadeeksha and its level 2. Frankly, the amount of grace and power I witnessed in this course is way over any of the courses I attended earlier. This Mukthi Utsav is really amazing. I have burst into peels of laughter atleast a couple of times. My mind is totally peaceful. The flow of thoughts inside has reduced to abt 5% or even lesser from what it was previously. Moreover, now the thoughts which come to me are not disturbing me as they used to earlier, which is of much more importance. I feel Amma Bhagavan right with me all the time. It is a real amazing experience. The deekshas (for those new to deeksha, it is nothing but a blessing given where the blessing giver keeps his hand on the head of the devotee and prays to the divine to fill the devotee with divine grace) given as part of this event are really strong and powerful. I have seen everyone dance in joy and hug each other in love. By the time, we were leaving on the second day, everyone was really happy and were in causeless joy.

Few of my friends know that now, I am in the middle 3 very important decisions which will make my career all through my life and a minor mistake can make me repent all through my life. Believe me one of my friends asked me how I am able to sleep. Frankly, if I am at peace because thoughts and mind are not actually disturbing me. I am really greatful to Amma and Bhagavan certainly for helping me through this tough time.

On how the course goes, it has very less teachings say abt 30 - 40% and most of the time is for prayers, meditation and deekshas. So, you will find yourself in great states when are part of meditation and deekshas. Just have a passion in you to get Jeevan Mukthi, that will suffice.

I would say everyone should and must attend this event. There can be no bigger boon than this course for all of us. Should you require any information on the course, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I will be more than happy to help you.

shocked at the level of corruption in our country

All of us might have heard of hundreds and thousands of crores of rupees going corrupt. Even I did, but still I felt that no body is directly impacted because of this, though all of us are impacted in indirect ways.

Recently, I have heard of another incident which was really shocking me. As part of the NREGA, the labourers are getting some 120 odd rupees today. Of this, our great government officials eat up 10 rupees everyday. Aren't these people become like blood sucking parasites? They are not just eating up the money from the rich and well to do, even from the very poor who earn a hundred bucks a day.

Is there a way we can get rid of this corruption? Pondering over all these, I felt that corruption can be eradicated only in the top down approach. When the politicians act with integrity then only can we expect the bureaucrats to behave so, and so to the lower levels of the government.

If you happen to go to any villages and ask any small or medium farmer, their woes are so sad. Never do the government officials act in a manner which is good for their farming. Neither do the governments at center and state. We do not provide proper support prices for our agricultural produces. The prices are high in the city markets due to the number of intermediaries in between. There needs to be a transformation all these, else we have a risk of losing agriculture totally. The number of people migrating to cities is already very high.

As a part of being in the Loksatta and Loksatta Sanjeevani, several programmes are being organised to get rid of this corruption. Many rallies are organised, letters sent to government offices, RTI ( Right to Information Act) used to find out how the government offices are functioning, etc.

On the spiritual end, we need to transform and flower the hearts of people that they are all the one and empathetic to the problems of others.

One good thing IT is bringing to the country is transparency. Projects like e-seva, moving all PF accounts into online mode so that all the transactions can be done quickly, UID are really bringing in more transparency in our country.

So, ultimately what is the need of the hour? The need of the hour is energetic youth who are well educated, willing to learn the problems of the people and work towards resolving these issues. You need not be a politician or a bureaucrat to work on these. If you really have the wish and will to do it, think and you will find many ways in which you can contribute...........
