Yogaswami’s
Words of Grace-II

(Provided by Mr. C. Kandiah)§

Pointing to a pipal tree Swamigal gave a rare Upadesh. “Look! Just as a seed appears and shines forth as a tree, trunk, branch, leaf, flower, and fruit, likewise the seed of Supreme Reality (Brahmam) shines forth as the world, life, the body, the moon, the sun, the five elements, male, female, the Paramatman and all. The Only Reality shines as world, life and Universe. True knowledge is to see Unity in Diversity.§

Everything is created, sustained and dissolved in God. Therefore, there is NO EVIL. The world is sacred and secret.§

We are not joining God newly. God is always, ever with Atman. He is never separated from us and will not ever.§

Meditate on Siva. The Jiva (Soul) will manifest as Siva.§

Give up the misconception that we are different from God. There is no “I”. Only God exists. He alone dances as all beings, as the world, as life and as Paramatman.§

Even the the noble souls have to suffer from remnants of Prarabdha Karma. Sometimes the mind will go after mundane things and suffer. Chant the God’s name, the Panchakshara, five letter sacred Mantra. You will attain Fullness (of Divine Consciousness.)§

Give up like and dislike. Treat praise and mockery as equal. Live like the tamarind fruit and its shell, water on the lotus leaf. You will attain Liberation, Veedu (Moksham).§

There is no birth and death for Atman. It remains as it is. Praise and worship the Lord and understand this Truth.§

Ignorance is to say this is My Action.§

Wisdom is to say it is God’s Action. §

Ignorance is to say God and me are different. Only God exists. Wisdom is to realize that there is no ‘I’.§

Ignorance is to say God is different, Guru is different and ‘I’ is different. Wisdom is to realize God, Guru and I - are one.§

Realize the Self by Thyself and remain as the Self. This is Holy Feet. This is Liberation, Moksham.§
