I want to share a few truths about practicing the presence of God.

A story – in a school there was 10 disciples and a Guru. One was intelligent and devoted and Guru gave more attention to him. The others were jealous and they want to remove him from master’s presence. Master also observes everything even though he sits with closed eyes. One day he wanted to tell all the disciples why he is giving more imp to the sincere disciple. So he called everybody kept a small test. He gave each of them one banana and told them go & eat where no one observes you. Each one ran to a different place. They all ate and came back except this chief disciple. He came back with the banana without eating it. They all asked why did you not find any place. He kept quiet. Master asked him. He says very beautifully – master I am not able to find any place where God is not observing me, seeing me. I feel his presence everywhere. This story all of you know as knowledge not wisdom.

This story h as multiple layers of understanding. there is no technique for enlightenment. You have to iron out your 24 hours with a clear understanding of practicing the presence of God in your body, mind and everything the clear presence has to be imbibed. 2nd thing whatever you experience as God, when you experience me some will have 30% fear, 30% love, 30% confused emotions, some will have 100% love, no fear, some will have 100% fear. In different ways you will experience the Guru. Whatever maybe the experience you have about Guru whether it is fear or attitude of master, disciple, attitude of father & son, mother & son, beloved, practice 24hrs. one you will fall into the truth, 2nd whatever fear you have the % of fear and other emotions except pure surrender you experience with me will be burnt away. This will happen by practicing the presence of the Guru, by the master.

When you sit in your office think, this place is owned by Swamiji. How will you keep it. When you talk to people think if he was here how I will talk. practising the presence is the only way your arrogant egoistic logic can go on justifying there is some other technique or its okay even if he sees. This is what I call hypocrytic loop holes. The air hole in the copper wire will not allow the electricity to flow. Same way the hypocrisy will not allow the presence to permeate, penetrate into you. That is why people miss me or try to abuse me. Trying to abuse me is like hitting your head on a hill. Hill will never suffer or get abused. People who never practice my presence will abuse me. I am really surprised in the name of Guru puja the abusal that goes on in the morning. Except few people no body is following. Forget about the extraordinary love & devotion you radiate like Ramakrishna. A simple physical procedure which people are expected to do. Being on time, having material, your mantras or chanting it. I am surprised. practicing the presence with tremendous respect is the only way.

My blessings to all of you to practice the presence of the guru & god. Blessings!
