Subject: Re: My personal dream journal
If my inner voice, my spiritual conscience decides
that a type
of company cannot really help me, then I will be under
painful
necessity to give it up, and to run away towards my
destination, in
the direction that my spiritual conscience guides me.
Otherwise it
will be hypocrisy, and it will check our real
progress.

If we are sincere in our attempt, then no one in the
world can check
me, or deceive me. Only we ourselves can deceive
ourselves. No one
else. We must be true to our own self, and true to the
Supreme Lord.
We must be sincere.
You have come to fight as a soldier, to save your
country, or your
people, or your honour. What your environment is, that
does not
depend on your whim. It may appear in any way, but you
have to face
that. However complex the battlefield may be, as a
soldier you are
to approach that. Otherwise you have no real faith in
your own
cause. There may be so much fighting amongst us, but
we have not
left the real field. We have not left the preaching of
Mahaprabhu,
in spite of all the difference.

Dear Peter,
Thank you for you enlightening words. It seems that
many religions have been intermingled in you comment.
I feel that we can all meet on a higher plane if we
try.....but we have to be aware of our
surroundings...there are windows that we can open to
deception that can lead to good and evil.

Presently the soul is captivated by a great many
things which produce
mean consciousness, but the solution is given in
Bhagavad-gita, how we
can achieve control of our senses and gain control
over the impulses of
our mind. It is recommended there that step by step we
try to rise up
to the soul's plane, eliminating the lower planes:
first the field of
experience of the senses; then the mental field, the
impulse which
works through the senses; then the intellect, that
which drives the
mental tendency - and crossing those, that we try to
find that point of
light which is the soul. If in any way, by the soul's
introspection you
can perceive the soul, then whatever value you had
assigned to this
whole material manifestation will turn into ashes. You
will see, "My
real identification is here within! It is so
wonderful, and valuable,
and independent of all the hallucinations I was
suffering from by
coming in contact with the external world. The inner
domain is so high,
and my consciousness was focused so low, on such
things." That is
the highest way to control one's senses, one's charm
for the world, for
wealth, women, and popularity.
Golden Staircase
"The self is in a dormant state, but by some external
help it may be
reawakened, just as when one is sleeping, by external
interference a
man can be roused. It is something like that. Someone
is dormant, but
when, by external help, he awakes from his slumber, he
again becomes
aware of himself. Once he is awakened and his
self-awareness has
returned, he immediately knows, "I was such and such;
I am such and
such." By the help of our friends we may recover our
health. In the
same way, if we continue to apply the process of
bhakti, we shall
become more and more conscious of our self and of
reality. We are our
own guarantee."
Subjective Evolution.. Chapter 1
"A comprehensive call is going out, and this is really
nonsectarianism.
Apparently it is thought to be sectarian by the
abnormal thinkers. But
to every normal thinking person, it is the most
general universal thing
that can be dealt with.
At present, we are quarreling in a foreign land for
fictitious gain.
But a sweet wave is coming from above to save us and
take us all home.
Only by the grace of the Lord's loving search for His
lost servants is
it at all possible. And all that is expected from us
is to join the
search for Sri Krsna and march towards the divine
domain. Let us join
the universal march towards the divine domain, save
ourselves, and go
back home, back to Godhead."
Loving Search...
Sincerely
Your Peter
