That presence is not to be gotten from elsewhere, it is there already; and the one who feels this is the unfolded man. When the mind and heart are opened, it cannot remain empty. It becomes filled with Grace. Gurushakti, or Grace, is a universal force that is existent everywhere and pervades everything in existence. […]
Focusing your attention to Christ, Buddha or Krishna
When we focus our attention on any of the personages of the great religions—gurus, real masters, or spiritual teachers—we are unplugging our hearts. In the unplugging of the heart, the universal force that is there enters. A picture of the great master is used only as a focal point. This can bring those forces and […]
The mission we have on hand
We come to realize that we are functioning from that source which is forever unfolded. Through our meditational practices and the power of Gurushakti, or Grace, we are pushing forth automatically.

Initially we start off with the dualistic attitude that material is separate from spiritual. We think that the would is here and God is there. When the mind comes to realization, we realize that God is not […]
The Teacher and the Taught
If you find a guru, at any time, who tells you, “I will show you God,” discard him. A guru can guide you on the path, but you have to do the walking yourself. No one else can do it for you. When there is a true yearning, a strong desire to find the purpose […]
No doctor can cure your ailment
In any good deed or bad deed the same energy is used—it is a matter of direction. If a person embarks on a destructive course, we say that Satan has possessed him, and if he goes on a constructive course we say that he is goodly and godly. There’s no goodly-and-godliness here: he did a […]
