In meditation this morning Mahavatar
imitated man by taking a lighter and lighting a cigarette. With a wave of his
hand, both the lighter and cigarette disappeared into the ethers from where he
had materialized them. Babaji then said: Many on the planet you still see
smoking cigarettes even through science has proven that these substances are
harmful to the body and can cause the dreaded lung cancers from which many
still suffer. Likewise, many substance abuses abound on the planet at this time.
Even food has become a way of distracting one from the real Self which stands
ever ready to bring one's awareness to the consciousness, which you really are
and which lives forever - Just Love.
When Lahiri Mahasaya met me in the
Himalayan mountains long ago, I told him to go and live in the world to show
that one does not have to live in a cave to maintain a Godly life of purity and
God-realization. Lahiri wished to stay with me in the Himalayas but his dharma
in this lifetime was to show how a man with family and a regular job in the
world could even be a yogi as pure as some who live in caves and meditate most
of their lives on Earth. One's daily choices either choose the material world
where one will smoke cigarettes knowing the risks to the body and eat food for
the pleasurable taste rather than for nutrition, energy and healthy life for the
body.
Today, I am encouraging you, who follow the
teachings and have love for your SatGuru Sri Swami Vishwananda, and all
those who read this message, to look at your choices each day and notice where
you need to align your thoughts and actions with purity and your real Self.
Then do this with a firm commitment to surrendering all to The Divine.
From the High Himalayas
I send you all Love and Blessings
