IDENTIFICATION

It is not Corona

How much effort you have put into getting this identity. And you are still adding to it. The most dangerous virus is not Corona. It is this identity that you are stuck to. For this you need a life-long quarantine! (Laughing). It will take guts to come out, and guts to remain without an identity. Name, fame, family, form, race, religion, country all gave you this idea of you, which is absolutely false and has no significance; not even any reality. Consciousness is not Indian.

Then Mahaprabu gave a beautiful example of how quickly we come and go, come and go repeatedly to this earth because of this identity, and all the desires that it has. He said, “SC, you saw the crowds during Girivalam on Pournami day right? (Tiruvannamalai is mobbed with crowds on full moon days) Imagine it is one of those very crowded days. Thousands and thousands of people are walking. Now suddenly hundreds of mad elephants are let loose amongst those crowds. You can imagine the speed with which people will rush into the nearest open door/house. Like that, souls rush into uteruses!! Be it a dog or rat or human. See how bad this mind is. If it is left alone to think for a few minutes, does it ever bring up anyone who did any good deed to you? It only worries and brings up all the bad things and buries you in them. Satsang is to keep the mind from burying you and for you to bury the mind. The mind is that worst relation that stays with you till the end and kills you. Mahaprabu is the Yama (God of Death) to Nabar Thanmai (Ego). Your mind will not like him. But it does not know that behind him is Atma!
