You know, in Buddhism also they praise this beginner's mind
and I love this term, ‘beginner's mind.’ Because a beginner's mind is not conditioned.
Cleaning under the Heartfulness way brings back this beginner’s mind in an instant.
Heartfulness Cleaning or Rejuvenation,
before I get into that I will share with you a story. It is a small, very brief story from Buddha’s life.
Buddha moved from place to place,
and this is how he shared his knowledge, he shared his experiences.
One day, one afternoon, he felt thirsty. Those days they didn’t have those thermos and water jugs
and things like that. Anyway, they may be carrying some mud pots perhaps, but that was empty.
So he asked his close disciple
Govind, “Govind, why don’t you fetch me some water from a river nearby?” He went with his pot.
But just before he reached the river site,
on the way, a bullock cart had passed through that shallow part of the river and muddied up the whole water.
So he waited and waited and it didn’t settle.“The water is so dirty so I can’t give this water to Lord Buddha.”
So he comes back and explains to Lord Buddha, “Sir, water is dirty, it is not settling”
Buddha said, “Let’s wait, you go again.” Unfortunately it was still muddy.
Lord Buddha sent him after two, three hours and said, “Now you go and have a look”.
So, given enough time, when the dirt settles in your mind, it will become clear.
But we don’t need to wait two hours, three hours for thoughts to clear, in our mind.
Through this Cleaning process,
we can accelerate this process.
If there was a filtering system or RO water system
in those days, then Buddha didn’t have to, there was no need to wait for three, four hours for water to settle.
You can instantly filter it.
So, to me, this idea of filtration is great. You can get rid of a lot of this dirt
that settles in our mind
through this process of Cleaning.
You can sit
and use the techniques given by Heartfulness way, which is aided with Pranahuti (Transmission).
It works instantly. You feel total clarity in your mind
and this ability to clean is also given by the Trainer.
They will equip you with so much strength in you. You will be amazed
that how is it that my willpower has skyrocketed now?
My willpower has become better,
better enough to get rid of
some of the dirts from my mind.
So, to me, besides meditation, Cleaning can help us a lot.
Lot of people, I mean, almost all of us, collect so many things, knowingly or unknowingly,
during our day-to-day interactions.That affects us,
that impresses our mind.
We get conditioned because of whatever happens around us. We get conditioned environmentally,
emotionally, and at many levels. Even physically we get conditioned.
We need to break this conditioning.
Suppose if I form an opinion about someone falsely,
and if I get an opportunity of cleaning out this particular opinion,
then I will be able to free myself from these false opinions.
That will improve my relationship.
I will have total clarity about situations.
In Buddhism also, they praise this beginner’s mind.
I love this term ‘beginner’s mind’. Because a beginner's mind is not conditioned.
Cleaning under the Heartfulness way brings back this beginner’s mind in an instant.
Sometimes when the emotions are so great that you yourself are not able to clean them,
then the Trainers are always there.
We need not even tell them that “I have this problem”, or” I have that problem”, or “somebody did
something to me” or “she refused me”.
You don’t have to go into details.
Trainers are not interested in these details. They are interested in helping us
get back to the depth of our being.
They are well trained.We have almost fourteen thousand Trainers worldwide.
So you won’t have to worry about waiting.
As we discussed earlier, there is no waiting time when it comes to such requests of meditating with a Trainer.
A Trainer’s main job is to clean, to help us come back to
a better state of being through this Cleaning. So I highly recommend this Cleaning.
