Pearls Of Wisdom

In the physical world, we have only physical sound. Like a bird singing, the musical notes from instruments, the noise from cars and all that, strike the ears physically. In the spiritual world, we don't need all these physical instruments in order to make or to hear the Sound.

It's not that we need to hear the Sound. We need to elevate ourselves to where the Sound is, or where the Light is. The higher the better. It's not in your mind. The soul has to be elevated out of the body, out of the physical world. Sometimes you are still here, you live in this world, you're doing your work, you hear the Sound and see the Light, and you think you're not in the spiritual world. You are, because the soul is not the body.

The soul exists outside of the body, outside of physical bondage, and merges itself into the spiritual world. That's why you can hear the Sound and see the Light. At that time you exist on both levels -- the soul level and the physical level. Most of the time people exist only on the physical level. That's why they don't hear the Sound, they don't see the Light. Normally, we're not physical. That's why we can liberate ourselves out of the physical dimension and then we can hear the spiritual world.

Every word has a different frequency of vibration, so if you use the word "love," even without meaning it, it still gives a very nice vibration and comfortable feeling. It is better than saying "I hate that cat" or "I hate apples". Even if you don't mean it when you say "hate," you are already full of hate. (Master & everyone laugh) Just say love. But when you say "I love you" to your beloved individually, that is of course different. Even though the words are the same, the sound and the feeling are different. For example, you call your child "sweetheart" or "honey," and sometimes you also say to other people outside, "Oh honey, you're lovely!" But that's different from the way you call your own child. Everyone knows that. There is no mix-up about it. The more often you use positive words, the better it is for the world and for yourself. Don't be stingy with love and positive words. Say them at all time.

Before enlightenment we are too busy, too muddle-headed. We think of this and that, and we try to do things the wrong way. We don't focus our awareness. That's why we don't know many things. We cannot harness our energy. Yeah, too fast. Then we just discharge our energy, and we're tired at the end of the day. We've achieved nothing. The more you nervously do things, the less you achieve. So you think you haven't done anything.

After a while, the master tells you how to harness your energy, how to concentrate your awareness. Then that power helps you to be sharper in everything, to be more alert. You can accomplish more in a shorter time. Then you think after enlightenment, maybe you have more talent. It's not true; you always had it. You just have more attention now to use it, more awareness to bring it into realization.

Because we are in this world, we have to abide by the rules of the game, no matter who we are. There are no exceptions for anyone. Since this world is the game of maya, any master who comes here has to abide by the rules of the game, or else he is not allowed to come here, to be a master or anything. That's why it makes things difficult. Well, every game is difficult -- football, baseball, basketball -- they all have their rules. You have to know the rules in order to play correctly; if not, they'll kick you out, no matter who you are.

Sometimes you don't understand. You keep asking me or any teacher, "Why, if you have so much power, don't you change the world?" Why should I change the world? If I change it, it's no fun anymore; if I change it, there's no struggle for people; if I change it, there's no yearning, no effort made to meet their own greatness, to discover their own mastership. You have to struggle. A professor in the university is not allowed to take the exam for his own son. The son has to learn from ABC and has to use his own effort. The professor can only guide him but cannot learn by heart the lessons for the son, cannot take the exam, cannot pass the exam for him. It's not allowed. It's not good for the son also, even if it were allowed. What for? Why would you take the exam for the son? You'd be the first in the class for the son and he'd still remain stupid, not knowing anything, couldn't even read and write.

So the wisdom is yours, mastership ismastership is yours. You have to discover, you have to struggle, you have to learn, you have to want it. I don't change anything. God doesn't want to change anything because Hes has free will, and allows everyone to have free will. So the master or anyone in a position of power also has to understand this. Every master understands this.
