The Power Of Truth And Gratefulness
Today's satsang dove deep, into resistances that operate in our unconscious. (When they are brought into the light, these defences dissolve.) We moved into the importance of a grateful attitude and into being true to ourselves. Premasudha reminds us that just as a parent's heart opens when a child expresses gratefulness, the Creator too responds in a gentle, abundant way to a grateful heart. The Creator loves truth too. In a deep way, truth is the Creator. This is why truth always surfaces, even if it is years after an event. The safest way forward is to steer toward truth and gratefulness in every aspect of our lives and to remember to be compassionate with ourselves when we fall short. Amma says the habit of spiritual practices holds us and keeps us steady during times of difficulty. Along with meditation, it is powerful to do the spiritual practice of constantly remembering truth and gratefulness during the hurly burly our lives. Remember Grace will help you do this.

We're calling on grace.
It's the eternal grace in which you're surrounded,
That you're made out of,
It's unconditional love.
The whole universe is made out of it.
It's there in you and it's there for you.
This grace has an understanding and compassion for you that is just off the charts.
And all this grace is wanting is for you to open to it and allow it to come in and enhance your life,
Bring you into more truth.
It's really there.
And you know,
It's us with our anger at ourselves and our fears and that we reduce it down.
So as we overcome our fears and our angers and our grudges and our resentments,
We experience grace.
We get proof that it's there.
We get proof that God exists,
That we're loved.
Yeah,
So just remember the point of power is you,
Not anybody else.
It's you.
Like,
When Amma hugs us,
We have a choice to really let it in or not.
It's like that.
She's always hugging us,
So let it in.
Let the love and the satsang in.
Okay,
Many blessings,
Thank you,
Yeah.
You know,
One of the most powerful things you can do is just imagine yourself feeling grace.
When you go to sleep,
Imagine yourself feeling warm,
Loved.
Imagine that you're opening to grace.
That will be pretty much the most accelerating thing you can do if you keep it up.
Keep it up.
Because the ego will distract you,
It will want you not to keep that habit up.
But if you keep doing it,
Keep doing it.
Same within the morning,
The few minutes when you wake up.
Even try to imagine grace.
You see,
When we try,
Then the unconscious starts to go to work for us,
Just like the elves and the fairies did the work for the heroine in fairy tales while she slept,
You know,
When it's an impossible task.
She sleeps and the elves do it.
This is our unconscious,
It does impossible things.
We just have to make room,
We have to choose it.
We have to,
You know,
Do these things rather than letting our mind run in,
Oh,
I'm so unhappy and life is so hard.
So before I open up to questions,
I just want to discuss something,
And it's around witnessing.
So you know,
Michael,
I'm going to put you on the spot,
Okay,
Because my guidance,
My feeling is you need a bit of a shove on this.
And I just want to bring it up for the whole group to see because this is the same issue for many in the group.
It's not just you.
And,
You know,
Me spotlighting it is grace in action,
In service.
So Michael and I have had some conversations around his health,
And every time he gets the wind up with,
You know,
When the report of the various enzymes and stuff is not normal,
And he gets the wind up,
And he will turn to me for reassurance.
And if we've had a call or a session,
And often in the meantime,
Then there's some medical report,
And Michael,
You totally get the wind up,
And I turn into a reassuring mother,
Okay?
I can't do that anymore,
You know?
I kind of did that to sort of just kind of help you through it,
To help you kind of to introduce concepts to you,
To give you enough safety that you could listen to what I'm saying.
But we do a loop with it,
And it's,
You know,
It's really,
Really important that the next time it happens,
Especially if,
You know,
We've had a session before this,
That you experience fear,
And at the same time,
You witness,
You step back from the experience of getting these medical reports.
Everybody's restless.
It's interesting.
It's like nobody wants to witness,
And you guys,
The thing that,
You know,
It's hard for me is you guys will praise me,
And praise me to the skies,
And it's kind of to avoid me putting pressure on you to witness.
Do you see what I mean?
If we can flatter the spiritual teacher,
She won't bug us.
It's like,
You know,
Flattery doesn't do anything for me.
It's kind of revolting,
Actually,
Because I know what's going on,
And I understand it,
But this is self-realization training,
You guys,
And that's not going to go away.
It's sort of like people signing up for PhD programs,
And then just telling the professor how great she is.
It's sort of like,
Well,
You got to do it,
Right?
And at the same time,
I adore all of you guys.
Pramasutha has had done so many games herself.
There's no judgment.
I'm just getting propelled from the inside to raise this like a firework.
It's kind of like I'm seeing myself pull this drenched flag out of the ocean,
Which means that it's something emerging from your unconscious that needs to be embraced.
It's like a new country.
A new country,
The flag of a new country that's been covered in water but now is emerging,
And this new country is your spiritual understanding.
You're being able to stand and witness yourself.
You have to have enough safety to witness yourself,
You guys.
You have to stand there and know that you're a valuable human being just as you are,
And you witness yourself experiencing your traumas,
Your challenges.
Michael,
When you next get a medical report,
And you get scared about it,
Go,
How part of you go,
This is where my fear grabs me.
So,
You're feeling the fear,
But part of you knows that it's just the game of your ego.
Now,
Maybe you can't do this yet,
Okay?
You know,
We can't force these things.
But,
I'm wanting to make space so that you can move into this as you are ready.
Right,
Because there's no force with this work,
You guys.
I totally understand.
You can't force unconditional love.
You can't force awareness.
All a teacher can do is just kind of point out the ego tricks.
And,
I've done that,
Michael,
And you drop it.
You don't pick it up,
And it's like,
I can't keep saying this to you.
It becomes a dharmic for the teacher.
Right,
And in there will be your experience of separation from the divine and separation from your true nature,
Separation from all of life and other people.
Right,
So Pramasiddha can seem like a separate entity saying this to you.
And,
Maybe you're not particularly wanting to hear it,
But Pramasiddha is not separate from you.
Pramasiddha is kind of an expression of your own soul speaking to you.
Pramasiddha is not separate from any of you.
Right,
I'm glad you're saying it.
Pardon?
I'm glad you're saying it.
Because?
It's always been there,
And I know you've said it before,
And recently,
You know,
Up until last night,
As well,
It dawned on me,
I've always kind of known it,
But now,
It's more obvious.
Right.
I guess you trust that I'm serving your highest good,
And I guess you see that I'm at the end of my rope on this.
It's when mom gets like,
Okay,
Enough.
Right,
And if you,
Like,
This is where I want to say,
Maybe you can't do it.
And,
You know,
But you will be able to do it,
But maybe you can,
Like,
Maybe you'll try,
Just with a part of yourself,
A tiny part of yourself,
And you'll go,
Like,
I'm supposed to witness here,
And,
Well,
I don't know how to do that,
But I don't want to get in trouble with Pramasiddha,
So I'm trying to witness.
It may be kind of messy like that,
Okay?
Don't worry,
Just keep going,
Because I'll feel the authenticity of your efforts,
And maybe you'll take a big step and go,
I just want to do this.
Like,
The thing is,
You see,
Michael,
You really don't believe in the love in your heart or the love in anybody else's heart enough right now to witness.
You don't really think it's there,
Because if you did know it was there,
You would be able to witness,
Because you would be standing in this knowledge of unconditional love,
Watching yourself be upset with the enzymes in your blood or whatever,
And go,
Okay,
This is where I get really scared,
But every time,
All my fears have been shown groundless,
So maybe I can just be a little bit resistant to them,
Not buy into them so much,
Because it's always been quite groundless.
Right.
You guys,
It's coming down into reality.
This is what I'm asking you to do.
Come down out of your heads into your experiential reality and be true to that.
That's what witnessing comes out of.
Michael's had all these results.
He always gets the wind up,
And it's always okay.
Right.
Premasiddha went through the leukemia thing,
And with my son,
And every time we went for blood tests,
I would watch myself just be terrified.
Right.
That's all that's needed.
You just watch yourself be terrified,
Even with like 10% of yourself.
This is where fear gets you.
I mean,
Fear used to get me on whether I could pay rent or not,
That kind of thing,
Or whether I could pay a mortgage or not.
Just watch everything,
You guys.
Bond to unconditional love and observe everything.
That's kind of it.
So,
How are you feeling,
Michael,
Right now?
Well,
Appreciative.
I really appreciate it because that is difficult for me.
And if you point it out again,
It's,
You know,
It just becomes,
Again,
More obvious.
I can't keep pointing it out.
You have to get it.
Like,
You have to like take it in hand.
Have it be your project to do it.
I want to learn.
Show me how to learn,
Amma.
Yeah.
That's what a sincere student would do,
Michael.
Bottom line.
And if you can't do it,
Then,
You know,
Witness and embrace.
But get real,
Okay?
Like,
Come out of fantasy.
Like,
Get real about the truth of your journey.
This is push comes to shove,
You know,
Where the rubber meets the road.
Okay,
Say,
I am unwilling.
So,
Do you have a problem with saying that?
True.
Pardon?
It's true.
Yeah,
So say it.
I am unwilling.
So,
How does your body feel right now?
It almost feels like it's going into defense mode.
Right.
That's the truth of things.
That is what I hit every time I say to you,
Witness.
It's just becoming,
You're just becoming conscious of this defense to premasuddha,
To to unconditional love,
To your own heart.
Right.
You see,
You guys,
The answer is always more awareness,
Admitting the truth of things more.
That is how we get over it.
We get past these obstacles.
We admit the truth.
We admit the truth of the defensiveness.
We admit the truth of the fear.
Unless we're admitting this stuff,
We cannot get over it.
And what people do with premasuddha,
And,
You know,
I have enormous empathy,
But I get flowery language about how great I am.
And it's like,
Oh,
Please,
Don't do that.
Just open up to learn.
If you want to help me,
You can help me post,
You know,
Social media stuff.
Right.
Michael's going to bat to help,
You know,
Get the YouTube channels up.
Like he's,
You know,
This is another form of being Sir Galahad,
Michael,
Is having the courage to learn how to,
You know,
Accept yourself and witness more.
That is an inner Sir Galahad journey.
I call Michael Sir Galahad for taking up the YouTube challenge.
And,
You know,
To face our inner material is a whole other level of courage.
And,
You know,
Maybe even,
You know,
Helping premasuddha with the YouTubes is part of you stepping forward and just becoming more committed to the journey.
It's all good.
There's no error,
Man.
There's no error.
I just can't keep playing games.
And there was no other way to get through to you,
Except to expose it in front of the group.
Because you will listen now.
Whereas I've said it,
Said it,
Said it.
It's just mom talking,
You know,
It's like,
Okay,
Well,
We'll just ignore that.
Yeah,
So it's in front of the group now.
And it's everybody's issue.
Often.
I mean,
A lot of yours issue.
So it's all good.
And remember,
It's like,
You know,
In Abraham's time,
They got dropped out in shark infested waters two miles out.
Self-realization is a no-nonsense training,
You guys.
But please understand this.
It's not for the faint of heart.
But the results are good.
And it's actually safe.
You have Alma.
Yeah,
So I want to come back again,
You guys.
If you want to make real speed in your journey,
Imagine yourself surrounded by graves.
Imagine yourself,
You know,
Able to witness.
Just before you sleep and in the morning and during the days,
Just fuel this.
And your subconscious will manifest it.
It's like using,
You know,
In the Olympic athletes,
They do that.
Like,
Instead of training seven days a week,
They'll have like two days where the athletes just imagine themselves winning.
Imagine huge muscles,
Imagining running like the wind.
And it is as good as physical training,
You guys.
It can actually,
You know,
Even imagining that you've got muscles can actually bring forward your body creating muscles.
It's our secret power.
It's our creator power.
Right.
Right.
Right.
So,
How are you feeling right now,
Michael?
Honest?
I don't know.
I feel—I just want to take it all in and—but I don't really feel much.
No.
I'm just asking,
Do you feel a little small?
I'm just asking.
I don't know.
Sorry,
What was the question?
I didn't hear it.
If I feel— Do you feel a little small?
I also know I'm trying.
So— Well,
You know,
If there is a feeling of small,
It's just the ego showing you how small it keeps you.
And you're getting a big embrace of unconditional love to help you move beyond this.
This is so hard for us to understand,
You guys.
But it's like,
You know,
A dog goes to the vet,
And the dog will lie down and let the vet do its thing because it knows it's helping.
It will—the dog will even let the vet hurt it because it knows it's helping.
And working with human beings with you guys,
You're less sure of what's going on.
You're less sure than the dog that you're being helped,
Okay?
Just because of our psychology.
You're not 100% sure that the teacher is actually helping you.
Like,
You're going like,
Well,
Maybe it's a bit of an attack,
Or maybe it's,
You know,
Maybe whatever.
And it's like,
You just be like the dog.
You just lie down.
You let the operation happen.
And you get up,
And you're more.
Right.
So,
Michael,
There's part of you that holds on to me,
Like,
To please your mom.
And it gets in the way.
It stops you from being really,
Really truthful with me.
Really brass-tacks truthful.
And it stops you from being brass-tacks truthful with yourself.
It's like a little kid who's trying to make sure the relationship with the mother is there because he doesn't—he's scared of losing it.
So,
He stops being himself.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
You see,
All this stuff I have to spoon-feed to,
To get you to admit,
Because I see all this.
And,
You know,
It's not a fault,
But it's like only real radical truth works both ways.
Both ways.
From student to teacher.
Both ways.
Right.
And you're deeply,
Deeply loved,
Michael.
And I've praised you many,
Many times,
Especially for being an older man who's flexible enough to head this way.
But I don't want this relationship going into la-la land,
You know.
It's like it's— No.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Good.
Okay.
Okay.
Premasut is happy.
I felt there was authenticity in that.
No,
I'm happy we got there.
Thank God.
Yeah,
Thank God.
Everybody's watching this operation take place,
And they're all feeling compassion for you,
And they're all glad that it's you,
Not them,
That's on the hot seat.
But they all learned.
Yeah.
That's wonderful.
Thank you,
Michael.
That's good work.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Surgery.
Surgery.
This is the surgery,
You know.
Alma says we have to lie down for these operations.
Yeah.
So yeah,
Look at all the hearts.
Oh,
Look at that.
Yeah.
Sir Galahad on the inside,
Too.
That's great.
Okay.
Well,
I feel like we moved the mountains,
You know.
Yep.
So please,
You guys,
Come forward with any question or concern.
A couple of you do look very pale.
Yeah.
Hello,
Poy Masuda.
Hi,
Everyone.
Hi,
Michi.
How are you?
Hi.
I have a question.
We're talking about feeling small.
And in conflicts or some situations,
I have this,
I tend to bring myself in this yoga child position to make me very small.
Not physically,
But I feel this,
I had this feeling to put myself into this position.
And I ask myself why I tend to do it.
If this is kind of protection or trying not to feel it and to make me small,
To don't let this conflict inside of me.
Yeah.
So what's the yoga position that you go into or you feel?
To make someone very small.
Okay.
Okay,
A couple of things.
One is I would go into that position and I would just go into that position.
Okay,
This is,
You guys,
The radical embrace of yourself.
If you're in conflict with somebody,
I mean,
And you go into that position,
You'll find that you get more space,
More information.
You see what I mean?
And you are,
In a way,
Taking your power.
Just go into it.
Now,
Just experiment with that.
That's one thing.
You see,
This is the thing that Pramasutta did.
I brought the body in because we guys were in our heads,
We cut off from the body.
So when you just follow a physical thing like that,
You will get the information that your soul is wanting you to know.
And Maxi,
Whether it's like,
Oh,
I feel like a little child,
Whether you want to speak it to the person or not,
Maybe it's not safe to speak to the person,
Or maybe it'd just be too confusing,
But you would know what it is.
Okay?
Yeah.
Right.
You can also just go into this position,
Say,
Either during the satsang or afterwards,
And just see what your feeling is,
What information you get.
Yeah.
It is a picture of how you've lived your life in lots of ways.
Right.
You see,
We all know this stuff.
Yeah.
So how do you feel right now?
It's a relief.
Because my feeling was I want to block my heart and I want to become smaller.
But when you told me it's good to do it,
To feel my feelings,
It makes sense to me.
Right.
Okay,
Good.
Yes.
Right.
Right.
So you're making room for the child's experience.
Yeah.
When there wasn't room when you were growing up.
Yeah.
Yeah,
It feels more safe for me,
And I feel that I can embrace these feelings.
Good,
Good.
Yeah.
Just experiment and,
You know,
Get back to me again about it all.
Do you know what I mean?
You can let me know how it goes.
Or,
You know,
At some point,
You don't have to report back to Prema Sudha.
I'm not talking about reporting back,
But it's sort of like just continuing this conversation.
Yeah.
No,
That's not quite it either.
I think part of you would let your ego go,
Okay,
I'll get this part and I'll get it right.
And then I'll be okay.
That's what I don't want.
I want you to realize that it is ongoing journey,
Endless,
Endless,
More and more.
Yeah.
Right.
Okay,
Good.
I know what you're talking about.
Yeah.
Yeah,
Good.
Oh,
Good.
I'm glad you're laughing.
You see,
You guys,
This is the hope that it can be so loving that you can get stuff and laugh at yourself and let things change just easily.
Like a mom found the kid hiding something in their pocket,
You know,
And then she pulls it out and they both laugh,
You know,
It's kind of like that's what I'm hoping for.
Or that is the quickest way to grow.
Yeah.
Okay,
Good.
Hmm,
I see.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You guys,
When I'm in India,
There'll just be satsangs on Sunday.
So we'll do questions after the satsang.
So this is,
You know,
The last question and answer one for a while.
So just jump.
So Primasuda,
This is my first satsang.
Can you hear me?
Yeah,
Yeah,
Sure.
This is your first satsang?
Yes.
Welcome,
Welcome.
With you anyways.
So hi,
Nice to see you again.
Yeah.
And I think I do have a question,
Actually.
Good,
Good,
Good.
So I had this super painful experience,
Like a few days ago,
Really,
Where I know this person,
And I really like her.
And I really,
I've known her for like many years.
But I've always kind of wanted to be friends with her.
But we never really were very close.
I think we like each other mutually,
But we don't really have like a close relationship or like talk often,
Because I'm also very busy and often don't really find the time.
But I'm also never really wanted to contact her much,
Because I thought,
Oh,
Maybe she doesn't think I'm that cool.
Or maybe if I contact her,
She thinks I'm like,
I don't know,
I want more of a friendship.
And she maybe does.
I didn't really want to bother her.
So another friend of mine who I'm really close to,
She moved back into the country like a little while ago.
And so I talked to this person that I like so much.
And she was like,
Oh,
Yeah,
I took a walk the other day with your friend,
Because we all know each other.
We're all in the kind of same community.
And the moment she said that,
It kind of like stabbed my heart a little bit,
Because I was like,
Oh,
No,
This other friend of mine moved into town.
And now they're immediately getting into this close friendship.
And maybe they're going to be better friends than my other friend and I.
And it gave me this feeling of total,
Like being afraid of being close to somebody,
But because then they might not.
Yeah,
Like,
Yeah.
And then at the same time,
Like also being worrying about losing the friend that I already have or thinking she's so much cooler than me.
So,
Of course,
They make friends.
And it made me feel like very much like wanting to withdraw from both of them completely.
But I'm trying to get myself to be like,
No,
Just first of all,
Be happy that they're not friends,
Because now potentially we can be like this bigger circle of friends.
But I'm still like,
Yeah.
So I was wondering what you thought about that.
Yeah,
It's very human.
And in our culture,
You know,
The fear of intimacy,
Fear of intimacy with our true nature and the fear of intimacy with others.
Because,
Yeah,
We can get hurt.
And nowadays,
Actually,
All of our defenses are so well developed.
You know,
That we do often hurt each other.
Right.
So what I want to ask you is.
Do you understand that the answer to this is building a deeper friendship with your own heart,
Right?
Do you understand that like intellectually?
Right.
Right.
So how do you feel when I say this?
I don't know.
Actually,
I feel like some kind of blockage that I don't really,
I don't know,
That I don't really have many feelings about that.
So it's not really possible to do that.
Yeah.
And you looked up,
Which is,
You know,
It's often like up into our heads,
You know.
Right.
I mean,
I feel this heart in you.
I don't know how much spiritual work you've done.
Is that your daughter?
Yes.
Oh,
He's very dear.
He's very cute.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Yeah.
She's coming to give you love when you're feeling a little vulnerable,
Probably.
They feel it.
They.
Yeah.
I can feel it's like the deeper mystery of being in the feminine consciousness.
It's like you don't even know how to address it in a way.
See,
I see this very beautiful heart in you and it's neglected.
Okay.
So this is and this is reflected by the storyline of,
You know,
This woman you kind of are ambivalent about making friends with,
But then she walks with your good friend and you're like,
There's a level that you're the neglected one in this picture.
It's like,
Actually,
It's what you do to your very golden heart.
Right.
And I can feel that you have no idea how to make a relationship with your heart,
But you're,
But you see,
You've come to this training and this is what we do.
So,
You know,
You're going to learn,
You'll learn just hearing this,
That it's really nothing to do with these people.
It's that you,
It's this feeling of neglect,
Of having been neglected and also that you are in fact neglecting the wisdom and the love in your own deep heart.
Yeah.
So tell me honestly how you feel about what I've said,
Just total honesty.
Oh,
It makes great sense.
Because I know on a head level,
I know this and I'm,
I mean,
I'm trying to get the love elsewhere that I'm really not giving myself.
Right.
So that's a strategy.
And in my head,
I'm just thinking,
Oh,
What kind of person would I have to be so that she would also be really close friends with me?
Oh,
Sweetie.
That's what I'm like trying to figure out.
But really it's.
Do you see like how,
Like this is what we're like,
But sweetie,
This is so sad.
I mean,
If you listen to this recording afterwards and just hear that,
Maybe you'll feel the sadness of what we're like,
That somehow it's like,
Well,
You know,
Tell me the rules of the game and I'll play it like what I'm a puppet.
Tell me what to do.
This is what we're like.
But where you have this immortal soul that.
Your job this lifetime is to bond with and to express.
Right.
How old are you,
Kat?
Forty six,
I think,
Or seven,
One of the two.
Yeah.
So this is this is what our job is this lifetime.
To weave our true nature in.
Right.
So did like,
You know,
When you were a kid.
Is this reflecting what happened as a kid at all?
Possibly.
Yeah,
I mean.
Yeah.
Yeah,
You're saying to me underneath,
Saying,
I don't want to go very deep right now,
Pramodita.
You see,
This is so funny.
This is what we're like.
And I so understand that you you don't even have to,
Kat,
But you you brought yourself here and this will just just this will change you.
Just especially if you listen to it again.
You know,
One of the great things about waking up is you don't you stop feeling like this.
You stop worrying about other people so much.
And actually,
They like you more as a result.
You know,
I mean,
The good ones will like you more.
The ones who,
You know,
Who are wanting to stay in their egos will sort of make more space.
Deeper people will.
Yeah.
And it becomes very easy and relaxing to be with them.
Right.
Right.
Yeah,
It's nice.
But to get there,
We often have to feel face a bit of fear or anger at ourselves or fear of who we are.
And all this takes place over time.
You know,
Between 47 and 49 is often a big growth time for people.
And often there's a big expansion in the 50s that follows.
Yeah,
And just for your,
You know,
Just so you make room for growth,
You know,
Just remember it's it's it's often can be an intense time for people where they face themselves more between 47 and 49.
Yeah.
And the results of it are good,
Even if it's uncomfortable.
Yeah.
Because there's a level that this is.
You know,
It's showing a developmental delay in a way.
It's showing you where you're stuck as a child.
With this,
It'll be,
You know,
Someplace where you're stuck at eight or nine.
Sometimes there's an event that happens at an age.
And we don't really step past it till we face it.
It feels like stuck at eight or nine for some reason.
Yes,
You could just think about that and don't worry about it too much.
It's like,
You know,
Just coming forward in the satsang,
You're you're opening up for more information,
More healing.
We don't have to manage our healing.
We just have to kind of open and let the unconditional love work on us.
Right.
You're very beautiful.
You have a very,
Very,
I can see it very,
Very,
Just seeing this golden heart in you.
It's a little cautious.
And it's like it doesn't want to show itself because it's it it feels like it's like it knows it's going to get crushed.
It's like that.
You won't necessarily,
But it's like your experiences when you really are coming from the heart that is dangerous.
We can get crushed.
Yeah.
Right.
So,
It can feel safer just going around in these mental circles than to really drop down and be willing to get to know ourselves,
Open to ourselves,
Love ourselves.
And feeling your true energy.
It's very,
Very beautiful.
It's very,
Very beautiful.
Yeah,
That's a good sign.
I can feel it because it's like you're giving yourself more permission and this will affect everybody in the group.
They will be able.
They're making more room for themselves at the same time.
Now,
You guys,
When you have openings like this,
It's really important to you know,
Treat them well,
Be gentle with yourselves.
Turn to the creator,
Turn to Amma,
Ask for help.
Don't just open the door and then go back to your normal way of living.
Respond,
Treat the creator well.
Right,
Right.
Because if you don't,
Your pain will go way up.
You can't come to satsangs like this and have an opening and not become more reverent to yourself,
To your true nature,
And to all of life,
Unless you want to go into a great deal of pain.
Because the creator is true reality.
It's not a game,
You guys.
And when you open,
You're opening to true reality and it will change you in the best way.
And I can feel,
Kat,
That there's this wisdom wanting to come and that you're wanting to become a wise in your 50s.
It's like a wise woman in her 50s.
Wisdom feels like an important theme for you,
For your 50s.
It's like this work we're doing now is helping to build a base for you becoming a wise,
More peaceful woman in her 50s,
In your 50s.
And you look about 32 to me,
So you're doing something right,
Sweetie.
It's great.
Yeah,
So how do you feel hearing this?
I'm hopeful.
Yeah.
Right.
It just depends on you opening the door to become a little more thoughtful,
More reverent to yourself and all of life.
And please,
You guys,
If you have a question,
Make sure that you listen again.
Because there's so much depth in what Premasut is answering that just hearing it once like this,
To get the fullness,
Really listen a few times to it.
Yeah,
Because Premasut is speaking from true reality.
Yeah.
Right.
Okay,
This is good.
This is very good.
Thank you,
Kat,
For bringing this forward.
It's something that everybody knows in themselves.
Everybody knows what that feels like.
Yeah.
Thank you so much.
Yeah.
I want to talk about grace again,
You guys.
It is so thick.
It's so buoyant and thick.
And the only thing that stops us from feeling it is our fear,
Our distrust,
Our angers.
So just keep giving over all your misunderstandings to the creator.
Just realize that you don't have to keep living this way.
You can find higher ground.
You can feel better in your lives.
Yeah.
And there's no rush.
Please don't get mad at yourselves.
Please,
There's no rush.
But it is the way that works.
When you give over,
You find yourself doing something 550 times.
And the 551st time of yelling at somebody for something,
You go,
Okay,
This just isn't working.
I give it over.
In Kat's case,
She could give over her insecurity about friendship and then open to learn,
Open to change.
Because to solve these problems,
You guys have to change.
You have to change.
You're the point of power.
It's not somebody else.
You change and different things will happen to you.
And,
You know,
I know you've heard this before,
But the universe loves gratefulness.
If you think of a child,
You're walking with your child and your child's complaining and being a jerk,
You just want to get this kid home,
Right?
But if you're walking with your child and your child's like going,
Thank you,
Mommy,
For taking me down to the seawall to have this walk.
It's so nice to spend time with you.
Thank you,
Mommy.
You know,
When you pass an ice cream vendor,
You say to the child,
Do you want an ice cream?
It is the same that God does with us,
You guys.
I am not kidding.
It is that simple.
If you come forward as a grateful child,
If you steer yourself to remembering gratefulness,
The universe will give you random ice cream bars.
It will give you random lovely experiences.
Because you're opening to your own heart.
You're opening to the love in your heart.
And Prima Sutta knows how hard it is to feel grateful on a rainy November day when,
I don't know,
Seven o'clock in the morning on a Monday morning,
Whatever.
It's hard to feel grateful.
But just even remembering gratefulness,
Being grateful that the rain's falling and the trees are getting the water they need.
You know,
Play with it.
Play with gratefulness.
It is your ticket home.
It is one of the biggest,
Most powerful tickets home.
And when you focus on gratefulness,
You will feel closer to everybody.
And you won't ask everybody to be so perfect for you.
You'll just be grateful that there's another person who loves you.
You know,
Flawed they may be.
Anyway,
Prima Sutta has had a lot of trouble with gratefulness.
I've heard this a million times,
You know,
In my journey.
Gratefulness.
And I go,
What do I have to be grateful for?
I look back now and I see how totally my life was orchestrated for my highest good.
How I got my needs met.
How it could have been so much worse.
How taken care of I was the whole time.
And you guys are being taken care of very,
Very deeply by a very loving higher awareness.
Right.
And you came to go through these obstacles,
These challenges.
You came here for this.
So,
Go through them gratefully and you'll do zero to a hundred as opposed to taking five years to take one step.
Right.
Prima Sutta,
Can I say something to this?
I just had an experience just like that.
And I would like to share it.
It just happened when Cat was talking.
Before,
When it was silent,
I was thinking about the feeling of speaking up because I had,
I felt an opening in me yesterday when we spoke.
And this opening,
I felt like talking about it,
But I got that picture.
No,
It would be like,
You know,
Like violently opening it.
So,
I remained silent.
And then when Cat spoke,
And that's where I felt so grateful.
When the daughter,
When your little daughter came in,
It just did something with me.
It just cracked me open.
It was just so beautiful when she came to watch that.
I could feel in her,
She was so happy you would speak and you were there.
And then the way you responded to her,
And it just did something to me.
And I felt very,
I do feel grateful for that.
I wanted to share that.
Okay.
That was so sweet.
Yeah.
We all help each other just by being ourselves,
You guys.
That's the big lesson.
We don't need to do gymnastics or calisthenics or twist ourselves into bristles.
Just being,
Being ourselves helps.
Opening our hearts like this,
Coming together with open hearts helps everybody.
The universe only has compassion for you.
There is only compassion for you.
Love and compassion.
And the journey into deepening into it,
There are lots of ups and downs,
But it's glorious.
You come home.
It's like you come inside this warm,
Welcoming building,
If you think of a warm,
Welcoming home.
And if to the extent that you're in your ego,
You are in the cold,
Looking through the glass with your nose up against the glass,
Feeling on the outside.
It's where most people seem to live.
And they often turn their desire to come home into,
Oh,
I want abundance.
So they'll feel like locked out from abundance,
But somehow through the glass.
But that's kind of a travesty because the real thing is everybody wants to come home and the ego makes us feel like an outsider.
And we're not.
So grace comes behind you.
You're staring,
You've got your nose up against the window of this beautiful,
Welcoming home.
And suddenly there's this warm embrace from behind you.
And it takes you,
Leads you to the door and opens the door for you to go home.
And you walk through the door.
And you're home.
And you do this over and over and over again until you just live there.
You are there.
You never feel separate.
And our journey,
It's every time,
It's like,
Oh,
Is it going to work this time?
Or am I forever going to be like this outsider who's cold,
Feels cold and alone?
And every time,
If you are sincere,
It will work.
And if you're not sincere,
You'll be shown that insincerity doesn't work.
That only real sincerity opens the door.
And we become more and more sincere because not being sincere hurts.
It doesn't work.
So we just get more real.
We just get more honest.
And in a satsang like this,
The honesty is accelerated.
The whole thing is accelerated.
And we get reassured that it's really real.
Because you guys,
We are at the nth degree of separation.
We've got as separate as we can be.
We are now turning to bond to our truth.
And it can be hair-raising.
But it can be done.
And it's lovely.
It's just lovely.
Yeah.
We're just at this critical time,
You guys.
We all came to be here.
That's why we've got so many people.
Because all the souls all want to be here at this time to make the shift.
Right.
And just keep remembering grace.
Keep remembering.
Try to feel grateful.
Remind yourself about gratefulness.
And this is your point of power is to find the energy to remind yourselves to keep steering this way.
Yeah.
You are my beloveds.
You are God in human form.
Yeah,
You are.
You're the creator.
Dressed up like a human.
You give.
I'm a suit of the great gift of bringing your presence.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Say ma.
Blessings,
You guys.
Bye.
Bye.
