Organizing One’s Life Around a Central Aspiration

1
00:00:01,700 --> 00:00:05,700
One of the things that spiritual
Seekers experience is that

2
00:00:05,700 --> 00:00:09,500
regardless of how strong the
central aspiration of the Soul

3
00:00:09,500 --> 00:00:13,900
happens to be within them.
They experienced fluctuations

4
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,600
based on the various parts of
the external nature coming to

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,500
the front and asserting their
own priorities.

6
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,800
This leads to a confused and
unfocused life punctuated by

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:31,600
periods of spiritual aspiration
times of Consecration.

8
00:00:32,100 --> 00:00:37,200
And then a fall back into the
priorities set by the body, the

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,800
Life Energy, and the mind, and
their relationship to the ego

10
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:47,600
personality that has been formed
and the pressures and demands of

11
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,600
the external life.
The mother suggest that the

12
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,600
solution of this situation is
based in organizing the entire

13
00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,100
life step-by-step around the
souls aspiration.

14
00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:05,400
And bringing the thoughts, the
emotions, the vital responses

15
00:01:05,900 --> 00:01:09,800
and the Very actions of the body
into alignment with the

16
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:16,100
direction of the Soul, a
disciple inquires, you say that

17
00:01:16,100 --> 00:01:21,500
it is necessary to establish
homogeneity in our being The

18
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:24,900
mother notes quote.
Don't you know what a

19
00:01:24,908 --> 00:01:30,600
homogeneous thing is made up of
all similar parts, that means

20
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,300
the whole being must be under
the same influence, same

21
00:01:34,300 --> 00:01:40,100
Consciousness, same tendency
same, will we are formed of all

22
00:01:40,100 --> 00:01:44,400
kinds of different pieces.
They become active one after

23
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,400
another.
According to the part that is

24
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,200
active, one is quite another
person.

25
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:53,100
Becomes almost another
personality.

26
00:01:54,300 --> 00:01:59,100
For instance, one had an
aspiration at first felt that

27
00:01:59,100 --> 00:02:03,900
everything existed only for the
Divine, then something happens.

28
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:08,699
Somebody comes along.
One has to do something and

29
00:02:08,699 --> 00:02:12,600
everything disappears.
When tries to recall the

30
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:18,000
experience, not even the memory
of the experience remains when

31
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,500
is completely under another
influence.

32
00:02:21,300 --> 00:02:23,400
One wonders.
How this could have happened?

33
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:29,700
Clear examples of double triple
quadruple personalities, all

34
00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:34,300
together unconscious of
themselves but it is not about

35
00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:37,300
this.
I am speaking, I am speaking

36
00:02:37,300 --> 00:02:41,000
about something which has
happened to all of you, you have

37
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,400
had an experience and for some
time, you have felt understood

38
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,700
that this experience was the
only thing that was important,

39
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:56,600
that had an absolute value.
Half an hour later you try to

40
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,700
recall.
It it is like a smoke that

41
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:03,500
vanishes the experience has
disappeared.

42
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,300
And yet half an hour ago it was
there.

43
00:03:07,300 --> 00:03:12,100
And so powerful it is because
one is made of all kinds of

44
00:03:12,100 --> 00:03:15,700
different things.
The body is like a bag with

45
00:03:15,700 --> 00:03:20,800
pebbles and Pearls all mixed up
and it is only the bag, which

46
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:26,700
keeps all that together, this is
not a homogeneous uniform

47
00:03:26,700 --> 00:03:31,800
Consciousness, but a
heterogeneous one and quote,
