Baba says, “become an embodiment of experience and make others experienced.”

It is one thing to say that sugar tastes sweet and a very different thing to know based on having actually tasted it, what that sweetness is. In both cases, I can talk to others about the sweetness of sugar but while I will need to work hard with my words to convince others about the sweetness in the first case, in the second case, they will be able to see it on my face, in the way I speak about it. One might be a good, entertaining talk, while the other gives an experience. “You have to be an embodiment of experience to make others experienced“, says Baba.

It is one thing to know and repeat to myself: “I am a soul, I am a child of God, I am the master of all the Father’s treasures, I am master almighty powerful…” and a very different thing to actually experience being all that. As in the case of the sugar, one is to be an embodiment of thought and another is to be an embodiment of experience. I think I am a soul but I don’t remain in that awareness much. Unless I remain in the awareness, I cannot have power because awareness brings power. When there is lack of awareness, there are wasteful and ordinary thoughts that become mixed into my thinking. Something little happens and my mind goes into overdrive: “This is just my karma….”, “Baba must have forgotten about me…”, “I am being punished…” or “maybe I ought to call so-and-so and ask for help…”, I worry, plead, feel sorry for myself etc. While in the situation, I even remember and repeat to myself: “I am a soul, I am a powerful soul, drama is beneficial..” but my legs are trembling, and my face conveys worry and anxiety. I consider myself a soul with all Godly attainments but, says Baba, there is a big difference in merely understanding this theoretically and actually experiencing it.

An experienced soul can never be deceived by Maya or experience any sorrow. I watch the situation as a detached observer, do what I need to do and leave the rest to Baba. With the powerful brake of “nothing new“, I am able to stop all waste and negative thoughts. I live the life of a carefree emperor, liberated from fear, worry and anxiety. My face reflects peace in the midst of the storm, others see me remain stable in the face of opposition, unshakeable when everything around me is shaking. When they see this, I don’t need to explain much to them in the way of words, they have an experience. And so Baba says, “The authority of experience is the most elevated.” People are tired of pundits who repeat things they have read about or heard about, but that they haven’t experienced themselves. People wish to have an attainment through an experience. But unless I am experienced myself, I cannot enable others to have an experience.

An experienced soul will always continue to move forward because of being an embodiment of all the points of knowledge and the powers. They will continue to fly because an experienced soul never loses their zeal and enthusiasm to a storm of Maya. “So check“, says Baba: “Have you become experienced with every point? Is the authority of experience visible in your every action? Is your every word and every action based on the authority of experience or is it simply based on your understanding?” To speak about the points of knowledge can also be done even better by outside speakers. However, to be an embodiment of experience of every point means to be an enlightened soul, explains Baba. There are many who sit in yoga but the experience of yoga means to be able to be an embodiment of power– someone who is able to invoke a particular power that is needed at that time and becoming an embodiment that is free from obstacles. If even one power is lacking, I can still be deceived. If what I need is the power of tolerance but what I use is the power to oppose, then I cannot be called an embodiment of experience.

The sign of being an embodiment of experience in all four subjects would be: In my stage, I would have the consciousness of being an instrument; in my attitude, I would always have pure feelings, soul conscious feelings and altruistic feelings. In the atmosphere and in relationships and connections, I would always be humble and my words would be pure and gentle. These specialties would be the natural nature at every moment of someone who is an experienced image, says Baba. To say such things as: “I didn’t mean to say/do this but it happened”, is the sign of lacking experience. I have to become knowledge-full, that is, an embodiment of every point, of every power. It is now the time for intense speed, the time for intense effort. It is not the time for ordinary effort, teaches Baba. That means that I use the points of knowledge in situations, in my interactions, in my every scene of the drama. It means that I am not afraid to experiment. Only when I use something will I gain experience with it, only when I practice with it will I perfect it. And so, Baba says, check which points of knowledge you are not as experienced in and use them. Then Maya will never be deceive you and you will be victorious. And a victorious jewel can never remain hidden; they become visible themselves and glorify the Father’s name.
