Welcome to Mohanji Speaks.
This podcast is slightly longer than the other episodes and it's recommended that you listen to it in its entirety with enough time to listen from start to finish and listen again.
It's a good one to keep listening to as a reminder.
We hope you enjoy.
Hello friends.
Let's talk about positioning today.
We all have certain complexes in us which we might have experienced especially in our teenage years and some of these complexes makes it difficult for us to position ourselves in this world.
Along with that point,
We can also think about our connection with various types of people.
Let's take one category.
Spiritual Masters.
What is a spiritual master?
A person who has settled within himself,
Inside himself.
That is a spiritual master.
Somebody who has taken himself of his senses,
Mind matter and established himself in his consciousness is a master.
That means he is detached from the external world.
His dependencies are less and he is very stable because of that.
Once we recognize somebody in that way,
We tend to connect to that person just because the aspiration of every person who is swayed by the mind is to reach that state.
And what is the sign of that state?
The sign of inner stillness is silence.
No judgement,
No criticism,
No anger,
Hatred,
Revenge,
Peace,
Total peace.
That is the state that you arrive at when you are deeply connected to the consciousness of a spiritual master.
How do people connect to a spiritual master?
Usually as per what they are.
You cannot connect to the world as per the world is because we have our orientations,
We have our inclinations,
We have our disposition.
Having all these orientations,
Inclinations,
Dispositions,
We will connect to the world only as per what we are.
Each person connects to another and connects to the world as per what they are.
They cannot connect in any other way.
People who are of emotional by nature connects to the master with devotion.
Bhakti yogis,
The devotional kind.
People who are of intellectual by nature may connect to the master's philosophy,
What he says the intellectual stuff.
Jnana yogis,
The intellectual kind.
People who are of ego oriented nature connect to the master's personality because ego is the skeleton of a personality.
Ego gives structure to the personality.
So he is more connected to the master's personality.
Then there are people who love to serve,
They are kind by nature.
They want to give to the world,
Share with the world,
The karma yogis.
They connect to the master's philanthropic aspect.
Then there are very rare species,
The rajya yogis who connect to the consciousness of the master,
The stillness aspect.
So as per the orientation,
People connect to the master accordingly.
A bhakti yogi,
A person who is inclined devotionally will find it absurd why the other categories are not worshipping the master.
While a person who is oriented to knowledge will find it absurd that these devotional people are worshipping the master,
A perishable body.
What is there to worship?
Each category will find the other absurd.
This is a very important point to understand.
Nothing is absurd to the person who is oriented in that format,
That pattern.
We must remember that.
Hence we must not judge because a devotional person,
An emotional person cannot understand the knowledge path at all because that's not his orientation.
A karma yogi will find it uneasy to just connect to a master based on the knowledge or devotion.
It's absurd for him.
So if you look at each category,
You will find that they have distinction.
They are distinct in their own thought process,
Inclinations,
Tendencies.
We must respect them.
The rare breed of people who connect directly to the consciousness of the master sees themselves in the master or sees the master in themselves.
There's no need to worship.
There's no need to act in any way.
There's nothing to understand.
That's very rare,
Very difficult.
It is not a mind thing.
It's actually a state.
Very rarely people arrive at that state after going through all the other states.
Those people need nothing from the master.
His presence,
His state is the most important thing.
They directly connect to the state of the master and stabilize themselves.
Just like a spark is enough to catch fire if the wood is dry.
Just a spark.
And the spark is always sitting in the master who stabilized himself.
He is burning fire.
He is a fire which is alive.
If you really,
Really understand all these aspects,
We will never judge,
We will never criticize,
We will never try to discriminate based on the orientations which we cannot understand.
People connect to people based on what they are.
Some people look at the master as freedom,
Total freedom because he's independent from the world outside.
He's detached from the world outside.
Some people feel the master as love because he gives love without expectations.
Free love,
Unconditional love which is very rare in the world.
We all experience unconditional love from our mothers.
Mothers always give unconditional love to their children.
But apart from that the world is full of conditional love.
But master who has found himself is established in unconditional love.
Some people may look at the master as a great romantic when you become everything.
Eternal romance sprouts within you.
You are a romantic.
You are eternally romantic.
What restricts you is your mind eager to create frames with expectations.
If there are no expectations,
There are no frames.
Then you love the world because you are everything.
You see yourself in everything.
There is nothing apart from you.
It's an eternal romance.
Your heart is so expanded that there is nothing else possible,
Just romance.
Some people look at the master and they see a rigidity,
Strictness.
This is because discipline and determination are essential to dissolve.
Mind is captured always by patterns which we have cultivated and nurtured over time.
Master becomes strict to certain people because he understands that discipline is essential to cross the barriers of the mind such as prejudices,
Patterns and fears.
As you are,
As what's inside you,
You see the master.
But the master is everything because he has established in himself.
He has become the universe and he is everything.
He is not just one thing.
So he caters to each person as per what they are,
As per their orientation,
As per their need to take the next step.
What is essential is that aspect or that guidance or that help,
That which makes them or helps them to take a stride further.
In conclusion,
I always recommend that you need to connect to the master sufficiently,
Giving yourself time to ask all the questions to yourself and if it is too much for you to ask the master,
Take time to understand,
Take time to assimilate,
Take time to know the master before you take the plunge.
But once you take the plunge,
Stay put.
Ask yourself what is your orientation?
How do you know?
It's very simple.
What suits you?
What's effortless for you?
That's your orientation.
What's not suiting you,
You should not do.
For example,
A person who's attracted to the philosophy,
The knowledge of the master and is not attracted to the devotional side of the master or devotional aspect towards the master should refrain from doing the devotional side because somebody else who's of devotional by nature,
Bhakti yogi by nature is doing it,
You don't have to do it.
You connect to the master as you are,
Which is more stable and more real.
Every connection should be realistic,
Otherwise it has no longevity.
It will not survive time.
Your connection should be with full awareness of what you are,
Not what the master is.
You can only connect to another being as you are.
Connecting your orientation is extremely essential for fruitful connections,
For maintaining good connections.
And don't look any further.
You realize what is your orientation,
What is your constitution and if you connect accordingly,
You will have stable and real and peaceful connection.
Real connection is extremely essential for the sake of longevity.
Birds of the same feather flock together.
You need to have the same frequency or you need to identify your frequency and connect in that way to a universal frequency so you can derive what you require out of it.
No master needs any worship.
No master ever tells anybody,
You should worship me.
Only insecure people will tell all these things.
Only insecure people will want people to worship them.
This is a perishable body.
This is what you are.
You have taken this body for the sake of experiences and expressions.
That's about it.
All that you are doing or all that is happening in your life are experiences of various nature and expressions of what you are into this world.
Nothing else is happening.
So nobody who's balanced will say somebody should worship them.
It doesn't matter.
But if somebody's orientation needs that fulfillment,
Let it be.
We cannot deny anybody's experience of any kind.
A true master allows that experience to happen.
A true master just let it flow.
How they are,
Let them connect as they are so that there is fulfillment individually.
Individual fulfillment is essential for transition to happen in life.
If fulfillments are denied,
If they are suppressed,
They come back with more force which binds them further to earth.
For liberation to happen,
Fulfillment is essential.
A true master allows that to happen.
There will be no restriction.
What is inside you,
What is burning inside you,
That's what is to be addressed.
It has to be addressed.
A burning desire is an important thing for that person.
If awareness can take care of it,
Fulfill it or through higher awareness,
If you can diminish that fire,
It's fine.
If through higher awareness also,
This fire is not diminished,
Fulfillment is the only solution and fulfillment must happen.
It will happen at its time.
A true master allows it to happen and releases the person from that binding desire.
In nutshell,
If you really understand yourself,
You can connect to a master who is stability incarnate effectively.
If you have not settled inside or if you have not understood yourself,
If you have not understood your orientation,
All your connections will be temporary,
Faulty and with expectation.
Any connection with expectation has a duration.
A connection without expectations,
Selfless connections,
Unconditional connections will live forever.
This is food for thought for you today.
Think about it,
Ponder it and communicate about it.
Lots of love.
This is ONG for you.

Love this talk. Helped me understand how my orientation connects. I don’r need to feel guilty that I connect intellectually and not emotionally. 🙏🏾 Thank you.
