Rajpur When what you
think, what you have in your heart and what you give out are in unison, that is
truth. When they're one, that is truthfulness. And this is also the result when
you conceal nothing from God. when your heart says something, your brain thinks
something else and your mouth says something else, you cannot be truthful. Two students
went to a Master. He examined both of them and gave them each a pigeon
instructing them to kill them where nobody could see. One was very clever; he
went out around the wall, shot and killed the pigeon and brought it back in no
time. The other was just running here, there, from morning till night; he could
not find any place where he could kill the bird where nobody could see him. He
came back at night, “I have not found any place. The very pigeon sees me.” the
teacher said, “Well you are fit for initiation.” When you see that he sees
every action of yours. You cannot conceal. I found the greatest thing that
appealed to Master was that very quality. I would tell others, “Go on, tell him
what you’ve done; open up.” We conceal, mind that. Our attitude is to conceal.
I found the greatest thing that appealed to Master was that very quality. I
would tell others, “Go on, tell him what you’ve done; open up.” We conceal,
mind that. Our attitudes is to conceal so that nobody would see, but he sees
all the time. So deeds of darkness are committed in the dark, don’t you think?
When you do something wrong and you're asked whether you’ve done it or not, you
have to tell a lie, then eventually you are found out. truthfulness is the
biggest thing that appealed to my Master, I tell you. perhaps he saw that in
me. I was very truthful – this is a necessity. We conceal,
even deceive Master, you see. We think we are more clever. We put thing in a
way which put things in a way which puts a cover over our deceptions. So, I
always say, “Be true to your own self.” When you do something wrong, you
deceive yourself. You see, and the God Power in you sees when you're clear to
him. And further,
when He sees others faults, he does not crow over them. He wants to cover them.
What do we do? We broadcast like unpaid apprentices of the C.I.D of God; like a
plagued rat we carry tales. Even if there are faults in others. . . . when a
child is besmeared with filth, you wash the filth, you do not kill the child.
God is in him, you see. When that attitude comes, that brings you nearer to
him, nearest to him. You say, “Oh, He's is seeing me.” Then other things follow
naturally. I told you,
truthfulness is when your heart, mouth and brain are in unison. When what you
have in your heart, brain thinks, proves it; it is like that and you know it to
be. When you find no place where he is not, where you are not seen by anybody.
Sometimes we speak something. But we think underhandedly. Do you follow me? all
things are covered. When a child sees his mother working near Him. He is afraid
of nothing. That mother looks after the child wherever he goes. When we see him
everywhere and he sees us, how can we conceal anything? We have to come to
that. Be open to him. Anything which comes out of the heart is heard. So, which
prayers is heard? That prayer which comes out of the heart is heard. So, which
prayer is heard? That prayer which comes out of the depths of your heart. When
your heart, your brain and your mouth are in unison – that is truthfulness. So be true to
yourself. The God is within you and the Master power is within you.
truthfulness is wanted. This appeals to him. When you discover that there is
nowhere He is not. First of all you see yourself that Power overhead which is
everywhere. That is the reason the student who was looking for a place where
nobody would see him replied, “Wherever I went I was looking into his eyes. He was
looking at me. So the firs
thing for clarification that all Master's give out is to just know the God is
seeing you. The God in you is seeing you and the God overhead is seeing. . . .
This is the great teaching of a Master: All things lead to that. Yes, it is all
sin when you forget him; that is all sin. Forgetfulness is the greatest sin.
Consider that during the day. you’ve got ample time to consider it, discuss all
the viewpoints and angles. All right, God bless you. |
