Become a destroyer of attachment

Baba says, “He gave his body, mind and wealth and instantly became a destroyer of attachment.

It is said that my final thoughts lead me to my final destination. “Death is standing in front.“, says Baba. Indeed, it is the end of the cycle, it is now time to return home. It is the time to wind up and prepare for the return journey. Turns out nothing of this old world can go with me where I am going- in its present form. I can however transfer everything I have to the new world through the Father, the Insurance Magnate. The way it works is that I use my everything – my body, mind and wealth- in the Father’s task of world transformation and in exchange, in the new world, I receive a new, beautiful, pure body, a mind that think elevated thoughts and limitless wealth. Indeed, I become the sovereign of the new world- everything…the earth, the sky….become mine.

But for me to be able to surrender my body, mind and wealth, I must be able to conquer all attachment to it. “I will forget my body and all bodily relationships and have a relationship with You alone”- this has to be my attitude. “Mine is one Shiv Baba and none other”. All my relationships have to be with the One alone, I must only remember Him and only love Him with my heart. This is what Brahma Baba did! This was his very first step of courage on the spiritual path. He instantly surrendered everything, he didn’t even think about it. He gave Shiv Baba full power over everything. He just became intoxicated that he was to receive the kingdom of the world. He didn’t think about his children etc. His attitude was: God is the One who gives; therefore, I am not responsible for anyone. “Look at Father Brahma to see how he transferred everything for 21 births. Follow the father!“, says Shiv Baba.

I too have to claim my kingdom from the Father and day by day, time is getting shorter. There will continue to be events that take place suddenly- death, wars, natural calamities etc. Business people hold their breath in case the demons of death come. Some faint when they see the face of an officer! There will come a time, Baba says, when people won’t be allowed to keep gold etc, there won’t be money to buy anything…the whole world has to change now to become the new world. After great sorrow, there will be great happiness. Before there is great sorrow, it is wise, Baba says, to claim your full inheritance from the Father. While walking and performing my activities, I simply have to continue to remember the Father and I will become pure. There will be so many sudden events but through all that, my remembrance has to remain stable, this is the high destination. And to get there, I need a lot of practice over a long period of time. I have to practice having so much remembrance that at the end, no one but Shiv Baba is remembered. “No friends and relatives must be remembered. Only remember the Father and become Narayan”, says Baba.

If I have anything in my hands, that is what I will remember in the end; if I don’t have anything, I won’t remember anything. No, that doesn’t mean that I have to leave my family or home like sannyasis do. Here I have to continue to live with my family at home and become a destroyer of attachment. The path of the sannyasis is separate. People say: While we live at home with our families, give us such knowledge that we can attain liberation and liberation-in-life just as King Janak did. I am now receiving that. Shiv Baba comes and adopts me through Brahma and gives me my inheritance. No human being can give me my inheritance of peace, joy, happiness and contentment- only the one incorporeal Father can give me that. So it makes sense then that I only remember Him and follow only His directions for my life- including for how to use my body, mind and wealth.

The Father says: “Remove your attachment from everything- your wealth, your possessions, your children, your body, etc.” The wealthy die for wealth; they cannot let go of the money they have in their fists. Out of multimillions, only a handful will emerge who are able to remove their attachment from everything and change from monkeys into deities. Monkeys are said to have the most attachment of all; they even hold on to chickpeas in their fists as if it were diamonds. Similarly, the wealthy and the millionaires are holding money in their fists as if their life is in it. Throughout the day, they remember their homes, their factories and their children etc. “They will die in that remembrance“, points out Baba. This is not a curse but rather a fact that I need to understand deeply and course correct. No matter how hard someone who’s whole life is about accumulating wealth may remember the Father, their remembrance cannot be stable; the law does not allow it. “Nothing should be remembered in the end. Simply remember Me alone so that your sin of innumerable births can be absolved.“, explains the Father.

I have come here, not for a little salvation like a bhagat would. I have come here to become Narayan from an ordinary human. The Father inspires me to make effort, according to my aim. He therefore inspires me to have complete yoga with Him for only then will I be able to claim the highest prize. When people in the world give advice about peace, they receive a peace prize, a medal worth pennies and they become so pleased with that. “What prize do you receive now?“, asks Baba, “you become masters of the world.” This is not hatha yoga where if I do my daily quota of 4-5 hours of yoga, I will become Lakshmi or Narayan, no. I have to make a lot of effort. Only one Shiv Baba should be remembered at the end, no one and nothing else. My heart that was broken into many pieces because of being attached to many people and things, Baba comes and makes it whole. Let me not break it again for He can only live in a whole heart. “You are becoming the greatest deities.“, the Father reminds me daily, “now forget everything else and remember Me alone.
