55. Give up All and You Gain All

Qn: The Supreme Reality (Parabrahman) may be present in all of us. But what use is it to us?

Ans: You seem to say that you need a place, but don't need space. The Supreme makes everything possible. Its use to you is none in daily life.

It may be a disadvantage being free from greed and fear. He does not protect himself, he abhors accretions; his life is divesting oneself, sharing, giving.

Qn: What is the advantage of gaining the Supreme?

Ans: Relinquishing the lesser is gaining the greater. Give all, gain all. Then life becomes pure radiation from an inexhaustible source.

Timelessness is beyond the illusion of time, it is not an extension of time. Freedom from all desire is eternity. To know yourself, be yourself.

Stop imagining yourself to be this and that. Who waits- dies. Life is now only.

To help the world, you must be beyond the need of help. Then all your doing as well as not doing will help the world most effectively.

The window is the absence of wall and gives air and light. Be empty of mental content and imagination and effort.

The Self alone is unlimited. Give limitlessly of yourself. Do not rush into activity. Neither learning nor action can really help.

Qn: My death is nearing.

Ans: Your body is short of time, not you. Time and space are in the mind.

Understand yourself. That itself is eternity.
