The dreams Babuji Maharaj would have,
he would have put it in simple words,
“Let this world become the Brighter World
so that the lighter beings from above
would be tempted to visit such places like Earth,
‘O let us visit Earth. It is brighter than the Brighter World.’
But that is possible only if we use each moment.
Each moment should be regretted upon,
if that moment is lost without the remembrance of the Lord.
For a true spiritual seeker such moments are very precious.
Imagine, if you are a businessman
and daily you have an income of let us
say one crore, two crores, three crores every day.
At the end of the year you accumulate so much wealth.
Imagine the worst days, when you don’t have such income
and say, oh today it is only ten lakhs,
next day only minus ten lakhs. And life goes on like that,
all in minus, minus, minus, minus everyday.
What will happen at the end of the year? Disaster.
So what matters, what makes this entire year’s productivity
or profitability is how we use each day.
This usage of year, we can say using of time,
how well we use this time element.
Some people make
so much that you cannot even make in ten lives,
just in one day.
Jokingly it is said that when Bill Gates
was walking on a Manhattan street
and from his jacket pocket he dropped one dollar on the floor,
he didn’t have to bend down to pick up that dollar
because doing that much,
within that much frame,
he has already made
thirty thousand dollars without doing anything.
Why am I giving an example from the business world
is to make us all understand the significance of this time,
each moment.
We should not consider so much, “oh what would I achieve
at the end of my life?”, it is a whole entire goal.
Then wiser people break it down into a year.
But people like Babuji Maharaj would say
each moment is important,
how at each moment I identify myself with.
Lord Krishna in the Gita also puts it a bit differently.
He says to Arjuna,
He reveals the secret of himself, “Kalosmi”,
meaning ‘I am time’.
Things happen within this.
It cannot happen outside.
So when He himself has declared, the Lord,
that Lord is time,
so if you want to take His help
we have to make use of the time very well.
Badly utilized time in partying, doing terrible things
will only drain us,
it would dissipate our resources which are so limited.
Timewise we have a limited life frame.
Philosophically speaking that is no moment like now.
But most philosophers say, “live in the now”.
Before you even recognize that now, it has already gone.
Years will pass, lives will pass, Yugas [eons] will pass.
But as Babuji says, with the right attitude
one can achieve the highest.
Just like a man as he turns his head from here to here
and achieves or gains the final Ultimate.
And according to him
this is possible only when we have the right attitude.
At that moment of right attitude where right thinking,
right understanding, your wisdom,
all your subtle bodies come together in resonance, in unison
and your heart cries out for the Lord that
“I like to realize you, I must realize you” - that moment
can become a pregnant moment
full of possibilities of realizing the Ultimate.
Many people may ask what, then, next?
We should worry about the next,
what happens after the realization,
later on.
First, achieve this moment of realization
and see what happens after that.
Then all moments would be the same moment -
moments of opportunities of expanding in other higher levels.
There is no God or there is no Master capable of helping us,
even the best Masters will fail -
if we don’t know how to utilize time.
Are we utilizing it?
I am not trying to make you feel guilty,
you all know very well how we utilize our time.
You are all wise people,
you are all hungry for realizing that I know.
Let us increase a little bit, a little bit more,
some more efforts in this direction.
We have been doing so much for such a long time,
give it one more shot with a different attitude
with lesser ego, finer intellect, refined thinking
and above all love for each other, respect for each other,
being empathetic towards each other
and creating a real brotherhood.
The dreams Babuji Maharaj would have,
he would have put it in simple words
“Let this world become the Brighter World so that the
lighter beings from above would be tempted to visit
such places like Earth, ‘O let us visit Earth.
It is brighter than the Brighter World.’”
But that is possible only if we use each moment
wisely with love towards each other.
