Becoming Aware of the Central Will of the Being

1
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:06,200
The decisive spiritual
experiences and individual has

2
00:00:06,700 --> 00:00:10,900
stay with him throughout his
life, those who are anchored in

3
00:00:10,900 --> 00:00:14,900
their external lives, undergo
countless experiences.

4
00:00:15,500 --> 00:00:20,000
But these tend to fade become
jumbled, were simply blend into

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,200
one, another, who can after all,
remember what they ate for

6
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,900
breakfast, 10 days ago, much
less, 25 years ago.

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,100
We remember high points in our
lives, whether they are external

8
00:00:34,100 --> 00:00:38,500
events such as a wedding day,
were the death of a loved one,

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,400
or the birth of a child.
Spiritual experiences are

10
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,900
remembered as they like the
external events, we tend to

11
00:00:47,900 --> 00:00:51,400
remember our high points in our
awareness.

12
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,300
This happens naturally without
any prompting.

13
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,900
In some cases these experiences
come upon one suddenly

14
00:01:00,500 --> 00:01:06,600
unannounced on asked for and yet
we remember them this

15
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,100
illustrates the importance of
the experiences.

16
00:01:11,500 --> 00:01:14,700
The imprint of the spiritual
experience on the psyche of the

17
00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:19,000
individual is indelible and we
frequently observed that an

18
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,300
individual who has had such an
experience tries to repeat and

19
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:26,400
prolong the experience whenever
possible.

20
00:01:27,700 --> 00:01:32,400
These experiences are important
because they disclosed a deeper

21
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:37,400
hidden truth of existence and
speak to our true in ourselves.

22
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:45,300
The soul, the psychic being they
lead the individual beyond the

23
00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:49,600
domination of the body, the life
force, and the mind.

24
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,900
And open up the Realms of the
Soul and Spirit, which is the

25
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:59,600
origin, and source of the
central will in the beam, this

26
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,600
leads eventually to the
aspiration and seeking for a

27
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,000
constant experience of these
deeper truths of existence.

28
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:13,300
It is a known fact that memory
is encapsulated and can be

29
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:16,300
released through re-creation of
the site.

30
00:02:16,500 --> 00:02:20,800
The sound, the sent the
environment, the mental and

31
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,200
emotional state, during which it
was experienced.

32
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,100
The triggering effect of these
things, can either reopen the

33
00:02:28,100 --> 00:02:30,600
relation to the source of the
experience.

34
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,800
Or at the very least, put the
body in a receptive state that

35
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,300
takes on the qualities of the
experience.

36
00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:43,200
This is a secret behind visiting
shrines or sacred Groves or

37
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:48,000
temples behind the burning of
incense behind practices of

38
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,400
visualization or chanting of
mantras behind sitting for

39
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,100
meditation in a space.
That is dedicated to the

40
00:02:55,100 --> 00:03:00,400
practice and doing so, at the
same time, on a consistent

41
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:05,500
basis, assuming one is not doing
this by rote or by some

42
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:09,400
mechanical process.
But focusing, the energy with

43
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,200
awareness when is putting
oneself into a frame of

44
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,400
reference that is related to the
experience.

45
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:23,900
When is seeking to reproduce or
extend a devotee asks how can

46
00:03:23,900 --> 00:03:26,100
one become aware of the central
will?

47
00:03:27,100 --> 00:03:31,300
A mother responds.
First of all, one must become

48
00:03:31,300 --> 00:03:35,700
aware of what is highest most
true, most universal and eternal

49
00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:40,700
in one's Consciousness.
This is learned gradually when

50
00:03:40,700 --> 00:03:45,300
learned to discern among ones
ordinary, external movements and

51
00:03:45,300 --> 00:03:48,000
the different gradations of the
movements of one's inner

52
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,700
Consciousness.
And if one continues to do this

53
00:03:51,700 --> 00:03:56,000
with a certain persistence, when
realize what it is, that puts

54
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,700
this high as part of Ones being
into motion which represents the

55
00:04:00,700 --> 00:04:04,500
ideal of the being there is no
other way.

56
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,300
Sometimes this awakens through
reading something, sometimes

57
00:04:09,300 --> 00:04:13,300
through a conversation,
sometimes through a more or less

58
00:04:13,300 --> 00:04:17,899
dramatic that is unexpected
event, which gives you a shock

59
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,600
shakes.
You up, brings you out of your

60
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,600
usual little run.
Sometimes when you are in very

61
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,100
great danger, suddenly you feel
as though you are above yourself

62
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:33,600
and beyond your small habitual
weakness, having within you

63
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,600
something higher, which can hold
out against circumstances.

64
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,900
Such occasions make you enter
first into contact with that

65
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,000
afterwards by a methodical
discipline.

66
00:04:47,300 --> 00:04:49,800
You can make the contact
continuous.

67
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:56,200
But usually this takes time.
But first you get it like that

68
00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:02,400
suddenly for one reason or
another long silence.

69
00:05:03,900 --> 00:05:07,400
This may come with a very strong
emotion with a very great

70
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:12,500
sorrow, a very great enthusiasm.
When one is called to perform a

71
00:05:12,500 --> 00:05:16,900
fairly exceptional action in
circumstances which are a little

72
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:21,400
exceptional, all of us that one
feels something as though

73
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,800
breaking or opening within him
and one feels as though, he were

74
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,500
dominating himself as though, he
had climbed up a higher rung.

75
00:05:30,900 --> 00:05:33,600
And from there was looking at
his own existence with the

76
00:05:33,700 --> 00:05:38,100
habitual senses.
Once one has experienced, this

77
00:05:38,500 --> 00:05:43,200
one does not forget, even if
only once it has happened, when

78
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:48,800
does not forget it and one can
buy concentration, reproduced

79
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,400
the state at will later.
This is the first step to

80
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,400
cultivate it.
Afterwards.

81
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,100
One can very easily call up the
state.

82
00:05:59,100 --> 00:06:04,100
Each time a decision is to be
taken and then one takes it in

83
00:06:04,100 --> 00:06:07,700
full awareness of the
implications and for seeing

84
00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:09,300
everything that's going to
happen.

85
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,000
I don't think there's one
individual in the world who

86
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,400
hasn't experienced it.
In any case, one cultured

87
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:22,000
individual at least once in his
life, something that breaks and

88
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:30,100
opens and one understands And
