Have a Clean Open Heart like a Child's Heart

 

Have a clean open heart like a child’s heart.”

one has to understand that you are part and parcel of the heart of the universe. One thing is essential that you have to be very flexible people. You have to have the flexibility of the heart cells we can say. Now heart has to pump. It has to be strong. And surprisingly lion is your emblem. So you have to have a lion’s heart. And lion’s heart means he is not afraid. He is the king. He knows he’s the king and he lives like a king. Like a lion and Leo as in astrology or if you say is a man who is extremely generous, lion hearted, not afraid of anyone. There should be no fear…

So, to love God is even more difficult, without seeing Him, without knowing Him, without knowing His bounties, without getting Realization. It is very difficult. … Trust yourself. Trust that you are realized souls. Trust that God loves you. That He has chosen you to be His instrument. Love yourself. You are unique no doubt. As it is, human beings, every individual is an unique person. But after Realization, you are definitely unique person. It never means ego trip.

One has to use discretion about understanding. It never means ego trip. If you cannot correct yourself, you are not master of yourself. Yes you are not perfect. You are unique but you are not perfect. You have to perfect yourself. These words can be very confusing. When I say you are unique immediately, you think you are perfect. These are two words, unique and perfect. Somebody can be unique but he can have imperfections. So you have to perfect yourself. And trust in yourself that you can perfect yourself, through your kundalini awakening, clearing your charkas. By understanding yourself, you can perfect yourself. You have to perfect…

If you are seekers and if you are ascending, you are definitely unique, one specially blessed. And you have to pay special attention to yourself. You can’t afford to play with yourself. So you have to discriminate between ego or ego trips as they call it and ascent. Ego trips bring you back with the worst hurting. It would be something like throwing you in the air and again you come back with a bump and break one of your necks or something like that. That’s what ego trip is. But ascent is where you really rise above. Not only that you rise but with you, you make others rise. In your ascent, you develop tremendous powers. The higher you ascend the better it is. But not by understanding that I am perfect you can ascend, never so…

If your heart is clean, you can see the other person clearly through and through. Innocence is such a powerful thing, such a powerful thing that even a glance is sufficient to kill a Satan. Purity of heart, actually when the heart becomes impure the impurity flows down to other places. It is not the other way round, is from the heart. Many people believe that it’s the body that becomes impure. I think it is the heart, which becomes really impure, and then it starts trickling down to the body and then it is residual there. It settles down there. So have a clean open heart like a child’s heart. Open heart.

What is there to be afraid of anyone? What is there not to trust anyone? What is there to be angry with anyone? Talk to everyone, shake hands with everyone, be nice to everyone. On the way you find somebody’s difficulty, give him a hand. If somebody cannot sit properly or has a problem you try to remove the problem. If the person cannot stand, give the place. Try to give from your clean heart. If your heart is not clean, it can never give.

Now how do you clean the heart is the subject …There is no broom available for that in the supermarket. There are no Fairy liquids or anything to wash it down. But there is a way. Allow your heart to be drenched in your Mother’s love. Just allow. See how much She loves you. I trust you…
