Baba says, “This is your Godly birth. The Father says: Remember Me alone. It is this that requires effort.“

God, the Incorporeal One comes into the corporeal world for me. He comes into the world when it is at it’s worst, most impure i.e. when it is hell. He comes into an old, impure, ordinary body to be able to meet me, teach me, guide me, and give me back my inheritance. He becomes my lawyer to get me out of jail. He liberates me from the cottage of sorrow. So great is my fortune that God Himself, despite being incorporeal, becomes corporeal just for me. The Father who is beyond sound comes into sound for me. He is the Ocean of Peace and Happiness, the Ocean of all Virtues and Powers and I instantly inherit all of it as my birthright. “Who can be greater than those who hold the key to make God Himself belong to them?“, asks Baba. Do I have this intoxication and is it constant?

If it is, then I will not be worried or anxious or fearful or frustrated about anything. “If you are able to make God Himself transform His form, then can you not change the form and quality of the elements and the circumstances? Can you not gain victory over adverse circumstances with your own original stage?“, asks Baba. “You have received such an elevated and powerful key, and you should be using it, but you don’t.” As soon as I came to Baba, He gave me the key to Himself and all His treasures. It is such a magic key that I can become an embodiment of whatever power I want as soon as I invoke that power. With this magic key, I can become the resident of whatever land I want within a second. I can become a spiritual astrologer and know the past or the present or the future. I can direct the power of my thoughts at the speed I want onto the path I want and claim a right to the power of thought. “So“, asks Baba, “why don’t you use this key?! Have you not understood its importance? Use this key at all times and take all the treasures. To belong to One and remember that One is the method to use this key“

Before I begin any task, Baba teaches, I have to use this key to invoke whatever power I need for the task. Then, the power will serve me. If I don’t invoke the power first, then I come into upheaval – good and bad, success and failure. “These powers are like your arms“, coaches Baba, “your arms cannot do anything if you don’t give them an order first. Order your power to tolerate and make a task successful and then see how success is already guaranteed!“, He challenges. However, instead of ordering the power, I become afraid of the situation and think: “How will I be able to cope with this? How will I be able to face this? Will I be able to do this or not?” When I have this type of fear, I am unable to order this power. “So what will you do now?“, He asks, “will you be afraid of situations or give orders? If even the children of the Great Death are afraid, then who would be fearless? Become fearless in every aspect!“

This is the real effort. To feel worried, and rattled is easy and when I am worried, I feel I have to do a lot- like knock on doors, make things happen using my own strength. But Baba says, “You have to make effort based on shrimat.” Shrimat asks me to rely only on God. He is my Father, He is alive and here with me. Why then would I need to work so hard, fend for myself and make things happen on my own? Instead, let me take my seat of rest and wait for God to tell me what to do. He does things His way on His timing. To wait on Him takes effort because often, I come into upheaval while waiting- what is happening?, what will I do now?, why isn’t Baba doing anything? “You have to create a stage like that of Angad, whom Ravan wasn’t able to shake. No matter how many storms of Maya come, you great warriors mustn’t shake“, He says. God is my Father and He is faithful, He will always come through; that’s why He’s here! But it might not happen in the way I think it will or on my time and so I have to let go of expectations and be patient. This also demonstrates my faith in the Father.

No matter how many vicious thoughts come, no matter how tempted I am to get off my seat of being a carefree emperor and making things happen on my own, no matter how much I feel like getting bitter, resentful, angry, hurt; no matter how much I feel like taking revenge over something that happened, I must remain unshakeable. I must have unadulterated remembrance, no one else should be remembered, nothing else should be remembered. My yoga must not be with the problem, the situation, the circumstance or with a person who did me wrong or with a person who I think can help me. My yoga should only be with the One. This is what Hanuman did, and that is why He is called Mahavir– the one who conquered Maya through the remembrance of the one Father and none other. This is the method to use the key to God Himself and to all His powers- His loving remembrance. My faith and love for Him is what activates His power in my life. A great deal of practice is required for this, teaches Baba. Only then will remembrance be natural at all times. If not, if I suddenly try to remember Baba or invoke a power at the time of crisis, I won’t be able to. “So now“, says Baba, “look after your gift of the magic key and constantly use it for every task.“
