What drew me was his simplicity and deep meaning. His teachings have high signal and propagate the ancient wisdom that there is something changeless beyond what we perceive.
Discussion
When someone asked Bhagavan what the greatest miracle in this world is, He replied that it was the human body.
“It is insentient like a log of wood and yet behaves as if it was an individual being. It is the Self which illumines it and gives it some intelligence and understanding but the light is mixed with the tamasic propensities of the body.
We only function by the Light of the Self mixed with darkness. Like electric bulbs in various stages of cleanliness and of
different voltage which come to life (light) when the electric current passes through them. The current is the same in all. Christ-Brahman,
the Self in one’s heart.”
On another occasion He said:
“Everything is unreal, like dream objects. A jnani’s job is to awaken the ignorant to the fact that what they see and feel is unreal and the Reality is their own Being. This can
be compared to an elephant dreaming of a lion and suddenly waking up and finding that the lion is unreal and that it alone is real. The elephant is the jiva or individual, the dream is the unreal world and the lion the jnani or guru. The guru is the link between the unreal and the Real.”
