40 Days and 40 Nights

  • 0:07 - 0:11
    It happens to many people,
  • 0:12 - 0:20
    even people who are in Sadhana, in Satsang.
  • 0:20 - 0:29
    This pure seeing happens.
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    And for a while,
  • 0:31 - 0:38
    everything is moving spontaneously.
  • 0:40 - 0:48
    You are like space moving in space.
  • 0:48 - 0:51
    Not anymore like object,
  • 0:51 - 0:55
    but like an emptiness,
  • 0:55 - 0:57
    and it is pure,
  • 0:57 - 1:01
    full of joy.
  • 1:01 - 1:08
    Yes, even beyond the concept of freedom.
  • 1:08 - 1:13
    But, surprisingly,
  • 1:13 - 1:22
    there can still be some energy of ego still there.
  • 1:22 - 1:26
    And it will begin to come,
  • 1:26 - 1:31
    sometimes very strong.
  • 1:31 - 1:34
    And you feel, 'What's happened, what's happened?
  • 1:34 - 1:38
    I'm losing it.'
  • 1:38 - 1:45
    Then I want to explain what happened.
  • 1:45 - 1:53
    Still the one who is having this experience
  • 1:53 - 1:57
    is a mixture
  • 1:57 - 2:04
    of beingness or you may call consciousness
  • 2:04 - 2:18
    or presence mixed with conditioning.
  • 2:18 - 2:26
    Yes. One side wants to go to the Absolute,
  • 2:26 - 2:35
    And one side wants to go to the body-mind.
  • 2:35 - 2:42
    And the side which is pulling to go back to past
  • 2:42 - 2:46
    has many images
  • 2:46 - 2:49
    to attract
  • 2:49 - 2:53
    and to frighten you.
  • 2:53 - 2:56
    All these things will come.
  • 2:56 - 3:04
    Yes. When we hear of the story of Christ
  • 3:04 - 3:09
    After his baptism,
  • 3:09 - 3:11
    a pure moment,
  • 3:11 - 3:15
    he was pulled into the wilderness
  • 3:15 - 3:22
    into the desert
  • 3:22 - 3:28
    to experience 40 days and 40 nights in this — had to be alone.
  • 3:30 - 3:41
    And in this time all the potential weakness
  • 3:41 - 3:47
    will come up in his mind.
  • 3:47 - 3:54
    In a figurative way it is appearing like the Devil.
  • 3:54 - 4:01
    Yes. And he had to transcend this power,
  • 4:01 - 4:06
    and you have to transcend this power.
  • 4:06 - 4:10
    It happened also to the Buddha.
  • 4:10 - 4:14
    Whatever is dormant,
  • 4:14 - 4:17
    it will come to the surface now,
  • 4:17 - 4:22
    and you must slay this dragon.
  • 4:22 - 4:26
    It's an ancient battle,
  • 4:26 - 4:31
    one which you must win.
  • 4:31 - 4:36
    You cannot be tempted
  • 4:36 - 4:44
    by something that you have no interest in.
  • 4:44 - 4:50
    You don't have to transcend
  • 4:50 - 4:56
    what is not important to you.
  • 4:56 - 5:06
    So you may find this experience
  • 5:06 - 5:10
    a moment of liberation.
  • 5:10 - 5:14
    It must come.
  • 5:14 - 5:18
    And it gives you the power
  • 5:18 - 5:27
    to KNOW, not believe, that there is that reality.
  • 5:27 - 5:33
    If you hold to this knowledge,
  • 5:33 - 5:37
    then when the mind comes,
  • 5:37 - 5:43
    you will transcend it.
