Series XIV
1) The dissolving ego removes the teacher, the school and
perhaps education.
In the company, the boss is replaced by a system.
The supramental force that possessed the governments in 1967 has now begun to possess ORGANISATIONS.
2) We may believe evil is only an
appearance and surely that helps transformation. The truth of evil is, it is
really a marvel.
3) The Absolute in creation or evolution is devoid of everything human, the mind, the vital as well as the body.
4) Skill in the physical is the sensation of the vital
perception.
5) Give up the one thing you cannot do without.
Do the one thing you cannot
do, as St. Francis embraced the leper.
6) To be emotionally selfless is to
FEEL happy in what anyone does in pursuit of his own happiness, in spite of how
it touches him.
The loss of property, honour, and
prestige to oneself that affords joy to another will be a source of joy for the
selfless person.
7) “Impossible” means it is impossible for
Her Force.
Darcy and Elizabeth changed
really, as we insistently refuse to change. Have we changed as they did?
8) Consecration of the most difficult
problem or an ordinary small problem is consecration. If one is possible, the
other too will be possible.
Consecration is the same for all
issues.
9) The blindness of selfishness
understands selflessness as a word, not at all as a reality.
Self understands only itself,
even selfishness as itself, i.e. selfishness.
10) A devotee sees Mother as a greater
power that makes him stronger.
The very concept of selflessness is
totally alien to man.
11) Man abundantly concedes and assumes
that all others must be Selfless. Selflessness enters man only in that measure.
“The world must accept
selflessness but I must remain as I am” is the formula of man.
12) When a friend or a crew or a spouse
acts not so much to desire a benefit for himself as to humiliate you, know life
is at work to make you free of selfishness.
Life that has outgrown the
need of selfishness tries to destroy it in the individual.
13) Every move of others or life is to
deprive one of his prestige or honour or benefit. These are the moves of
life to render man selfless.
14) The whole truth of one’s temperament will
emerge in one act of man with a force that is irresistible. Man’s changing here is real change.
Mother gives all the positive
circumstances to a person for him to change and awaits his choice.
15) To realise that I who find all others
selfish am equally selfish in another fashion is the very first realisation of
Selflessness in practice. Till the psychic emerges, one is selfish.
16) There
is no shortcut to accepting the defects of all people with us as our own
defects and changing there. That will make the finite man infinite. Till
then, one can see life presses only at those points.
17) Folly of meanness heckles another at
his strong point. Perverse meanness convinces him that it is useless. The
cleverest of meanness raises a doubt in him by withholding its approval of his
strong point.
18) What you detest and avoid most,
something in you will seek. It is the seed in contradiction for the complement.
To give way to that is catastrophe. To recognise its value, and endorse it by your
being and express it in the measure of that endorsement is transformation.
What matters is not the move,
but the move that is the change.
19) Seeing the Brahman in trance is like
seeing the stars through the telescope.
Black magic is the falsehood
of spirituality. Tricks are vital falsehood.
20)
The
truth of the mantra reveals that the idea in the word can achieve in the
material plane.
21) The servitors of Truth are free at
any moment to serve falsehood, even as the slaves of darkness can choose to be
soldiers of Truth at any time.
22) Sound is movement.
There is no sound without
movement.
Mantra is the movement of
Truth.
23) Insistence is loyalty.
Falsehood can become Truth,
not when man is loyal to it.
24) Should the human voice reach long
distances, one should speak into the radio.
25) The finite is the frontal
appearance of the Infinite.
27) Curing the disease is conquering
death a little.
Judgement of the court is to defeat vital
falsehood.
Discovery of a law is Truth emerging in
the mind.
Mantra conquers falsehood in its own
plane of movement.
Mother establishes Truth in the soul of
the body.
Mother is the Truth of body.
28) To see the defect of another and
attack that leads to destruction of both. To appreciate another’s good and support
that is construction at that level.
29) Matter is the tangible result
represented by the mercenary motive of the human mind. Brahman is the ultimate
source represented by the Nirvana behind the soul. Behind the result lies the
capacity. Beyond knowledge is there. The Spirit and its source are the
ultimate.
30) We seek the infinite speed of the
Infinite’s action in the finite.
31) To consider the wife’s lover as a
brother because of that commonalty is the acme of Mental Idealism.
When that right was conceded,
the wife gave up the lover as well as love.
32) Doing, accomplishment are acts of
self-limitation.
34) Future possibility is open by the
present failure becoming persistent.
35) Man’s initiative inimical to the
atmosphere of the organisation will end in his initiative being ejected.
The beneficiary refusing the
benefit shows the offer is absolutely opposed to the existing setup.
36) Courage is Truth.
Fear is falsehood.
37) The soldier of Truth is a fish of
truth living in an ocean of falsehood.
38) How can truth prevail and
falsehood perish, long as falsehood socially thrives?
No one will copy in the exam or seek a
degree false or true when people are employed for their talents.
39) Society organising itself so that each
man’s truth serves him best will release the truth of the individual.
40) The whole of human nature can be seen
in one man or in a few men. It is seen fully in oneself.That one man is
the one who reveals the ONE. One who reveals the ONE is the one man I look for.
41) Organised falsehood becomes hostility
when its intelligence becomes perverse.
What matters is
self-awareness.
42) A characteristic of hostility is to
convince people that their greatest strength is their greatest weakness.
Falsehood of intelligent
perversity organises itself as hostility.
43) Grace deciding to give a man an
undreamt of popularity at once, asked him to exercise his discretion
intelligently. He did so unintelligently.
When grace knocks at your
door, do not escape through the back door.
44) Having had his salary doubled without
any expectation at all, one finds the extra drained off for his brother’s debt
elsewhere. Grace is vulnerable to organisation of temperament.
