Han meditations Swami Tapasyanandaji Abbreviated memory who was the vice president of our order?
He He writes in one place when you have been given the mantra You have already been given God in a seed form The mantra the name of God is connected to God in a seed form So you already have a direct connection to God when you take that that's one of the importance of mantra deeksha We often do not know what it is.
So this Sriramakrishna story of the washerman and the diamond It applies to us.
It applies to bhakti also and not just to gyana.
What is the diamond?
It's that Mantra which is given to us by by God and we don't we think it's a simple mantra I need some more special techniques of meditation.
Let me see YouTube techniques of meditation search for You have been given the best the direct connection with the divine we are not satisfied in some more thing Some more peculiar techniques will be added and how this is sophisticated nice improved simple thing So Ramakrishna somebody asked for advice for some spiritual problem he said clap your hands and take the name of of the Lord and the Apaki the birds of sin who sit on the tree if you clap your hands hard enough the birds will fly away So these birds of sin who sit in the mind the tree of the mind they'll fly away You take the name of the Lord vigorously and clap your hands.
This person was not at all satisfied.
It's too simple Thought it would mean some,
You know Tantric technique pranayama breathing technique some sophisticated philosophy.
All these things will be there whole package then I'm satisfied won't do anything of course,
But Satisfied this seems too simple All right,
So a lot of times what he's actually saying is just you don't have to overthink things Just calm down and relax Repeat a mantra in your mind over and over again and just get yourself in that high vibratory plane You don't need to do all these complicated things Everything that you're doing is in a sense of permission slip You don't need to do any of these things to get a high vibration you could just boom and have a hybrid You don't need to you know,
Do meditation to get high vibrations to get messages You don't need to do Reiki to heal yourself.
None of this stuff needs to be done You could just do it immediately because you're the creator of your own reality But a lot of times people overthink things people really just sit there.
I need this They're not satisfied until they have I need to do this every day this every day this every day this every day Why don't you just start with something simple getting the negativity out of your mind getting the negative thoughts Cleared away and making sure they're not there think positive thoughts Reinforce those positive thoughts and start doing good on a daily basis Why don't you just start with something simple instead of trying to think?
Oh,
I need to complicate this because if you say you can or you can't either way,
You're right So instead of just saying I have to do this.
I have to do this Why don't you just start thinking in your mind?
I don't have to do any of those things All I have to do is something simple be positive at all times and and really just expand upon that and then see how you feel What do you think about the simplicity Kelly of you know meditation and you know spiritual practices?
Do you think people overthink them a lot or yeah,
I mean you really took the words right out of my mouth that We already are source.
We already are light if we could see what we truly are We would be like,
Oh my gosh,
Why am I trying to complicate things?
I already am what I'm trying to be But we live in this reality where what we believe is what our reality is whether we make it easy on ourselves or whether we make It harder on ourselves.
That's what it's going to be and exactly as Han said Everything that we do to get closer to source to get closer to the spirit side of ourselves It's just a permission slip because in reality you could do nothing and just truly feel what you truly are any Given second of the day because it is what you truly are,
But this world is complicated.
This world is dense Sometimes it's hard to get that connection.
So we all have our different things that work for us That's why so many things exist and it also makes it fun Really to have different things that you can practices that you can do and it makes this life more Interesting because that's why we came here to grow to learn all the best ways to become back to ourselves so that's why all these things exist,
But sometimes for sure we over complicate things when they don't have to be and You know,
You can get worked up.
Oh,
I'm not doing this enough.
I'm not doing that enough and you know,
Sometimes we see People who you know,
They love to do all these special rituals and very complicated and and these things are very fun But you don't have to do these things and if you look at something like meditation,
We all know it's Maybe arguably the most beneficial thing to get back connected to source and it's the most simple thing sit there and do nothing essentially and It is the most powerful method.
So just think of that You can do nothing and that that alone should prove that we don't have to complicate things We just have to quiet out the noise Yeah,
That's beautiful because from doing nothing you gain everything So sitting at home and meditating and just clearing your mind Allowing your thoughts to come and go and thinking nothing doing nothing you allow the universe and space and time to clear So that you can think clearly from your higher perspective,
