HEALING ~

Absolute, unquestioning faith in God is the greatest method of instantaneous healing. An unceasing effort to arouse that faith is man’s highest and most rewarding duty.

The Devotional Way to God~

When you are absorbed in love for God, His response is there at the heart center, a tremendous feeling of calmness and divine joy welling up in the heart that draws your attention or concentration to that center.

That feeling in the heart is like a great comet of light; and in that light is the love of God. It is that feeling which you should concentrate on in the heart.

Those who are in earnest about God are aware of these subtle spiritual experiences. As soon as I concentrate on the heart I feel that light, that glow of God's all-consuming love.

If you have that love for God which brings actual perception of Him, you do not require the formal discipline of renunciation. It becomes automatic; all lesser desires and attachments fall away.
[...]

Love is a joyous giving. When that is in the heart there is no pain in parting with anything.

When renunciation for its own sake is uppermost the devotee rationalizes: "Why should I part with this or that?" He discriminates in giving.

Renunciation is made to seem so terrible that few want to follow it. But when love for God is there, then even the renunciant has no feeling of renunciation.

You gladly do without anything or everything for love of God. The most enjoyable way of life, whether as a monastic or a householder, is to be in love with Him.

Realize Your Kinship With All Humanity ~

True friendship is broad and inclusive. Selfish attachment to a single individual, excluding all others, inhibits the development of divine friendship.

Gradually extend the boundaries of the glowing kingdom of your love to include your family, your neighbors, your community, your country, all countries— all living, sentient creatures.

Be a cosmic friend inbued with kindness and affection for all God's creation, sowing love everywhere.
[...]

Consider no one a stranger. Learn to feel that everybody is akin to you. Family love is merely one of the first exercises in the Divine Teacher's course in friendliness, intended to prepare your heart for all–inclusive divine love.

Realize that the same lifeblood is circulating in the veins of all races. How may anyone dare to hate any other human being, of whatever race, when God lives and breathes in all?

We are Americans or Indians or other nationalities for just a few years, but we are God's children forever.

ASTRAL WORLD ~Part 18

Keep Your Mind at The Spiritual Eye

So must you live. Do not form attachments to this world. If you do, you are in for trouble; you are going to be sadly disappointed.

This is not your home. The heavenly kingdom of God is your home. Live there now.

No matter what you're doing, concentrate on your inner peace and calmness. Keep your mind at the spiritual eye, and keep your thoughts busy with God's thoughts.

Meditate more, churn The ether with your prayers until out of the silence the light of God appears.

If you want to know God in this life, never go to bed at night until you have made contact with Him.

If for one whole day and night you would pray and meditate, remaining in your room and not seeing anyone, intensely praying that God will come to you, He will definitely respond. [...]

Dear ones, do not forget the message you have received today, use it. Meditate deeply and regularly, until the spiritual eye is opened and you can fly through it to the astral kingdom.

Remain always in the sphere of happiness, born of meditation, no matter what happens. Live in the consciousness of astral freedom.

Without fail you will be able to do this by devoted practice of the techniques of the Kriya Yoga science I have given to you. [...]

This world is a terrible dream. I hope you all realize this. To the last breath of my dream existence I shall tell you how to get out of this dream as soon as you can.

Do not wait, for one evil thought may lead you to the valley of death, and one good thought may lead you to the kingdom of God. So get busy with yourself. [...]

Every night in meditation throw yourself at the feet of the Lord. From the depths of your heart cry to Him. Cry for Him, until your head and your heart seem to burst with longing for Him: "You must come. Reveal Thyself to me!"

If you do not give up, the Lord will come unto you. He will awaken you from this dream world and lift you to His bosom of eternal light, immortality, and freedom.
