Why is it so difficult to find God or truth?
Because you're looking for something you've never lost
The experiences which drugs induce are as far removed from reality as is a mirage from water
no matter how much you pursue the mirage you will never quench your thirst
and the search for truth through drugs must end in disillusionment
if drugs could make one realize God then God is not worthy of being God
many people in India smoke hashish and ganja
they see colors and forms and lights and it makes them elated
but this Elation is only temporary
it is a false experience
gives only experience of Illusion and serve to take one farther away from reality
those persons who have experiences through drugs
feel that they have realized God because they get certain experiences
but the guideline is that their experience is not continuous
even though it is only a hallucination an illusion even that is not continuous
and that is the sign that it is not true experience
go back to the USA spread my love among others
particularly among the young and persuade them to decease from taking drugs
for they are harmful physically mentally and spiritually
your duty is to tell them regardless of whether they accept what you say
or if they ridicule or humiliate you. To Boldly and bravely face these things
leave the results to me I will help you in my work
you are to bring my message to those ensnared in the drug net of Illusion
that they should abstain
that the drugs will bring more harm than good
send my love to them
all so-called spiritual experiences generated by taking mind-changing drugs
such as LSD masculine and psilocybin are superficial
and they add enormously to one's addiction to the deceptions of Illusion
which is but the shadow of reality
the experience of a semblance of freedom that these drugs May temporarily give to one
is in actuality a millstone around the aspirant's neck
in their efforts towards emancipation from the rounds of birth and death from samsara
and so although LSD and the like may lead one to feel a better human being personally
the feeling of having had a glimpse of reality may not only lull one into a false security
but also will in the end derange one's mind
although LSD and others are not an addiction forming drug
one can become attached to the experiences arising from its use
and one gets tempted to use it in increased doses again and again
in the hope of deeper and deeper experiences
but eventually this causes madness or death
taking psychedelics is harmful physically mentally and spiritually
but if you take the Divine into your heart
you'll find the infinite ocean of effulgence
and this experience will remain continuously throughout eternity
the best way to cleanse the heart
and prepare for the stilling of the mind is to lead a normal worldly life
living in the midst of your day-to-day duties responsibilities likes and dislikes
and so on will help you
all these become the very means for the purification of your heart
things that are real are given and received in silence
if you are convinced of God's existence or the ultimate truth then it rests with you to seek that
to see this and to realize this truth
do not search for the truth outside of you through the use of drugs
truth can only be found within you
for it's only abode is the heart.
People wait for the big moment the great event
and forget that happiness comes from building steadily on the small daily things of life
people wait for that special moment to express love
and forget that love springs from thoughtfulness practiced every day
people wait
but waiting is Future
and now is always the time
