One very important point that you must understand is that whatever we have is only for this journey. Our real home is our Father's home. Is this something that you all can accept? If you do not or cannot, then let me know. This present journey has to end, so you can go home. Going to Paramatma (God) is not difficult. As such it is not difficult. It is only our belief that has made it difficult. Understand that this is only a journey. All can understand this. All in all. All are eligible to know this point. All can acquire this knowledge. Just like any child of a mother, can sit in the mother's lap. Any of her children can sit in her lap. All have rights. Similarly, all can attain Paramatma (God). All can get knowledge of Truth (tattva gyaan). All can attain Salvation (kalyaan). All can be liberated. All can attain divine Love (prem).
It is not something new. New things are in world, but Paramatma (God) is an age old thing. We are Paramatma's. It is simple and straightforward. "Ishvar ansh, jeev avinaashi; chetan amal sahaj sukha raasi" (Manasa, Uttar. 117:1). "The Jivaatmaa (embodied soul), is a part of Paramaatmaa (Supreme Soul). It is immortal. It is consciousness, immutable and a fountain of natural bliss." There is nothing to do for our self. Absolutely nothing. What has to be done is only serving (seva) others. The serving can be with our things, our strength, our intellect, our knowledge, our talents and whatever we have received. All are only to serve. There is nothing to do for the self. We are already "avinaashi" (imperishable) , chetan (consciousness) , amal (free of all impurities), and "sahaj sukh raashi" (fountain of natural bliss). Everything that we have received is only for serving. It will leave, therefore serve.
Paramatma is ours. Loving, devotion and worship of Paramatma is Bhakti. The Self being detached from the world is gyaan. Accepting everything in the world as belonging to others and not wanting anything for your self, is karmayog. Nothing at all is ours and we do not want it either. Not even a needle in this entire cosmos is ours. Nothing in this world will remain with us. All will leave. You will get a new mother, new things, but none of it will be yours. Presently where we are staying, that house is not ours. The things in it are not ours. Until we reach home, it is all only a journey. Therefore whatever we have received, make do with it.
May all be happy. May all be healthy (free of disease), may no one experience any pain and suffering. "Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah..." Let your sentiments always be such as to give happiness to everyone, give rest and relaxation to every one. This is the essence. There is no doubt about this. Paramatma is such that wherever you go, He goes with you. He never leaves you. Only He is ours. Be Joyful ! Do Bhajans!
Remember these two essential points. Desiring what you do not have and (apraapt ki kaamna) and attachment (proprietary interest) towards what we have (praapt cheej ki mamta). These two are great obstacles in the spiritual path. The more things that you accumulate, the more unhappiness you will experience. Even the body is not ours, then how can anything else be ours? "ye toh jyaasi hi jyaasi" Wherever you go, it is only a journey. There is no resting place here. Sometimes an animal, sometimes a bird, sometimes a tiny insect, sometimes a tree, it is endless. It is all a journey.
Bhagwaan (God) loves "Patram, pushpam, phalam..." (Gita 9:26)
Whoever offers Me with devotion, a leaf, a flower, a fruit or even water, I
accept these devout offerings of a devotee with love." (Gita 9:26). He likes simple things, but offered with true feelings and sentiments. Just like He loved the banana peel offered by Viduraani. The joy He felt from eating the peel, He hadn't experienced such joy from other foods. He is like that for everyone. What an amazing thing this is.
It is about our real Home. All else is a journey.
