CHRIST AND GURUSHAKTI

  CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS HAS TO ASSUME A HUMAN FORM Christ has never left us. The body of the historical Christ might have disintegrated into its original elements, but the Christ Consciousness is eternal, and it has never left us; it is always there. It had no beginning, and...

WHAT IS NON-ATTACHMENT?

  THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NON-ATTACHMENT AND DETACHMENT The opposite of attachment is not detachment. The opposite of attachment is non-attachment. Let me explain to you the difference between detachment and non-attachment. In detachment, you become detached from the world or your environment. That could be a form of...

HOW TO BECOME FEARLESS?

  IF FREE WILL IS USED POSITIVELY, THEN HATRED WILL BECOME LOVE When we suffer from emotional problems, we do suffer them without the realisation of Divinity. In other words, fear suffers within itself. Jealousy suffers within itself. Any form of negativity is perpetuated by itself. If there...

THE MARK OF AN UNFOLDED MAN?

  SIGNS OF SPIRITUAL UNFOLDMENT Spiritual unfoldment has specific qualifications in our daily living life. The qualifications help us tackle the problems of daily living.

By becoming an observer, you become non-attached to all the happenings around you and the lower layers of your mind. You become non-attached because that Spiritual Force is permeating the lower, grosser levels...

WHAT IS TRUE SURRENDER?
