REALIZATION
Mistake Realization, not Self-Realization
SC during feedback mentioned that one is an orphan because all relations are for the ‘i’ Thought.
Mahaprabu: Laughing. The ‘i’ Thought itself is a mistake. Then we say I have so many problems in relationships. Whose fault is it? Not the fault of those relations. It is your fault. But we keep blaming others for my mistake. Even in day-to-day life when someone realizes their mistake and they accept it, first they become silent. This indicates that when you realize your mistake you will find silence, peace. This silence, peace is proportional to the magnitude of the mistake. When you realize and accept your biggest mistake of all, the basis of all mistakes, imagine the silence, the peace. That is realization. It is Mistake- Realization, not Self-Realization! Realize this primary mistake you are continuously making. This is the only way. Don’t try to realize the Self. Realize your mistake. But you see, you think you are the mistake. As long as you think you are the mistake, how can you rectify it yourself? That’s why only the Guru can help. That’s why Mahaprabu keeps on hammering the Truth. So that you slowly lose all your energy. The Guru has only one expectation. That the disciple will get rid of his suffering. Actually this should be the wish of the disciple!!.
Once the disciple understands and accepts that he is in Ignorance, then the transformation can happen. Suffering slowly goes away. When it completely goes away, what is left is called Happiness. All are holding on tightly to so many things: Materials, Thoughts, Habits, Concepts, Knowledge and worse: Feelings. So many have a bayanda svabavam (fearful nature). Are they holding on to fear or is fear holding on to them?
SC: And we can’t get rid of all these fears, thoughts, etc one by one, correct?
Mahaprabu: Yes, That’s why the way is Total Unconditional Surrender to the Master. Whatever he says, accept it. Give everything for that acceptance and that acceptance will bring you everything!
