So thoughtless awareness is the first point all of you should achieve. Very important. After that, we can achieve something else, but the first step is thoughtless awareness.
It’s very important to become thoughtlessly aware because then there are no thoughts coming from the left or right, from the (past) or the future. Just in the present you are there. It’s something you all have. It’s not that I’m saying that to you, but all of you have this, but steady yourself. You have to steady yourself at thoughtless awareness. How long – that’s not the point. The point is once you’ve touched it, you’ll go on touching it. Many people meditate, but their thought process is going on. They are not thoughtlessly silent. Now this is the one point which is very important.
All these thoughts are bombarding from both two sides in your mind. These thoughts that are coming to you, have no meaning with you. They do not substantiate you, yourself you are an ocean. And you have to get into that state of thoughtless awareness.
But please try. You can all get into that state of thoughtless awareness, even for a second, if you get it, it’s a very good idea. Then you go on increasing that second.
I think is a reflecting mind. When you look at something, you do become thoughtlessly aware, and then your mind reflects to the depth of what you see. That’s how you all will become really very creative Sahaja yogis. What I find, that this state of thoughtless awareness is not established by many, which is not good.
Today, on this day of Diwali, I would say that you enlighten yourself with thoughtless awareness. It is not difficult, it’s within you because thoughts are coming from this side and that side. And they are not the waves of your brain, no; just your own reactions. But in case you meditate in the real sense of the word, then you’ll get into that thoughtless awareness, which is a very important point. And all these nonsensical thoughts, which are of no use to you, will disappear. They won’t be there, and then your growth is possible and you’ll grow very well. Many people are here who will say, ‘Mother, we don’t get that state.’ Try. Try that. I don’t believe you cannot get it. All of you can get that thought that ‘I can get it.’ And you will get it. In that, you don’t have to discard anything, you don’t have to see anything, just go into meditation, and you’ll be amazed how it will work out. Of course, you are very much there, most of you, but still, I would say, increase that thoughtless awareness, that area.
Today is very important because of this day of Diwali. Diwali is supposed to be Enlightenment Day. But enlightenment within is: how much you are in thoughtless awareness. And everything works out, because you are the ocean of it. You have it within yourself. Only, you have to tap it. If you don’t tap it, then it doesn’t work out. You have to just tap it, and you’ll be amazed that you are a source of such joy, source of such happiness, I should say source of real enlightenment.
So today’s message is that while meditating, go into thoughtless awareness. No thought is important because it’s your own creation. But if you have to become (one) with the divine creation, you have to get to that state of thoughtless awareness, minimum of minimum. What’s that comes to you gradually if you grow, and you’ll be amazed how you’ll be able to grow into Sahaja Yoga in a very big way.
Thank you very much.
