Handling Evolution

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30b1PWJq2cE

how do i handle my own evolution

first of all you need to see that i

don't evolve just like i said remove the

eye from here eyes absolute or you can

say that there is no i at all so the

evolution is happening there is no

agency there which can handle it it

handles itself this

basic ignorance should be cleared first

but there is somebody who can manage the

evolution no the whole does it and it

does it in the most optimal way most

efficient way possible

sometimes there is a desire that appears

there that i need to do something to

speed up the evolution and that is also

a perfect desire in the perfect way

which has appeared there and it will

lead to some action or some corrections

which will speed up the evolution

again the individual never does anything

because it's not there there is no doer

so the recommended method to handle the

evolution is to leave it as it is don't

try to meddle with it if something needs

to happen something needs to be

corrected there will be desire to do it

and it does not matter how strong the

resistance is slowly the whole structure

will move towards this desire and it

will be finished and the next step will

be taken this is how it works we are

the driven we are not the drivers as

humans

humans have no power they are the

external appearance of the iceberg like

the iceberg is 90 in the water invisible

so the humans are like that we don't

know what is hidden and so this

evolution is mostly from

that level which is not apparent we can

see the effects of that we do not see

the causes of threat and we cannot cause

it

now this answer will not going to

satisfy many people especially on the

spiritual people they don't like this

answer you mean i'm supposed to do

nothing for the rest of my life should i

just sit and watch

remember the eye is again here remember

to drop the eye when you speak about

evolution and things like this when you

speak on any spiritual topic

yes there is only the witness the

witness can only watch it cannot do

anything it does not do anything and it

it has no wants to do anything the want

appears in front of it and the will or

this desire that drives the whole

structure the body mind structure in

specific direction and we i mean not we

the experiencer simply witnesses

so even if you say that i will do

something it is okay and if you say that

i'll just sit and watch is okay they

amount to the same thing that which

happens is necessary will be manifested

it does not matter what kind of thoughts

appear in the mind what happens will

happen if a thought appears that i have

done it as speeded up my evolution is

perfectly okay if some other thought

appears like i'm just sitting and

watching it happens it is also okay they

both amount to nothing only that

the second thought is more equanimous is

coming more from awareness and the first

one is coming more from seekers

perspective that i'm doing something

however most of us

will not be satisfied by this because

the energy to seek is too much so for

them a false answer is given and the

false answer is as follows it is just

like a medicine you see you give a

medium placebo kind of medicine to those

who cannot

be in this equanimous state and the

answer is very simple if you want to

handle your own evolution first thing

you need to do is get a teacher the

teacher needs to be the most irritating

kind of teacher in the universe

and that kind of person will tell you

all your faults you're not good at this

you're not going to use talk like this

and you think like this that is the

fastest way that i've seen so far in my

experience if you get somebody who

simply says that you are great your

experiencer you are the whole existence

you are brahman now sit down there and

do nothing probably you won't progress

very fast so i gave you the key get

somebody who is expert in finding your

faults who tells you that you are at a

lower level than expected

and obviously somebody who is at a lower

level than you will not be able to tell

you but it is amazing sometimes you see

people are good at fault finding the

faults so for a householder the best

thing is to get into a relation and your

partner your children your mother father

they will become your gurus they will

become your teachers listen to them

carefully how they criticize how they

find faults how they react to your i

want the wrong behavior it's

not optimal behavior

they will speed up your revolution we

evolve here simply by making relations

if you are not in a society then you

need a guru and the guru must be the

strictest possible

if not if you if you are not fortunate

enough to get that kind of very

irritating guru

then use your intelligence use your

intellect do the self evaluation

and the good news is that i have already

produced about six or seven videos about

self-evaluation i have actually done

that before they are in the form of

articles and some podcasts but the

latest one is more organized and in

small parts

20 minute parts where we go through all

the categories of evolution all the

levels of evolution and

we have used some parameters to

self-evaluate those with a good amount

of intelligence can do it themselves

they can just like a doctor can check

himself you know for the symptoms treat

himself with the medical medicine

because he is a doctor he has the skill

and intelligence so a doctor is like a

guru if you are a patient you go to the

doctor similarly if you want to handle

your revolution go to a guru the better

the medicine the faster is the effect

if you are a doctor like you have this

powerful intellect you can evaluate your

own progress and go and watch the self

evaluation parts there there are i'm

still producing them and they'll be

finished in one or two weeks probably

hopefully and i made them a part of our

program so that you get that skill the

program is going to be very complete you

need to be able to evaluate yourself and

you

should be able to evaluate others if

there is a need because the program will

turn you into a teacher eventually

so i don't think everybody from the

program is here but

if you're listening to the recording

this is highly recommended although i

keep saying that you can drop at the

episode number 20 you can drop out i

keep saying it but highly recommended to

go through the whole of it you will

never find anything better than this

whole and complete

so this is one way to handle the uh

evolution

self-evaluate find out at which level of

evolution you are and try to know what

is the next level push yourself to the

next level obviously there will be

obstacles so there are two parts two

part videos

in which i have discussed probably 50 or

60 kinds of obstacles with possible

solutions to them so there is evolution

but there are obstacles also because of

your past actions past impressions they

need to be cleared and if you are

skillful you will be able to do it

yourself if not you need a teacher you

need a guru who is skillful

who is experienced experienced like in

the field not in terms of bookish

knowledge people with bookish knowledge

they can only say things they cannot do

anything

there is another way to handle your

revolution and

it looks like that i have already told

but it is slightly different

and that is surrender you surrender with

a will to evolve that desire that intent

must be very very strong and you can do

some rituals to you know keep pouring

petrol in that like you keep the fire

burning the fire the intent to evolve it

it requires a little bit of knowledge

especially it requires exposure to

somebody who is already more evolved

than you and you must have guessed by

now that i'm talking about the path of

surrender or devotion

it does not involve worship remember the

path of devotion does not involve

worship i don't

say it so many times because you see you

anger a lot of people by saying they are

kind of radical and fundamentalist kind

of people so you can take out a

devotional component from that simply

use the surrender that's all and simply

use the power of intent to continue

there is no need to worship anybody and

obviously there is no need to pay money

to any institutions there is no need to

pray the prayer is actually a method of

expressing our intent

there is nobody who is listening except

you because

there is no you there is the whole

that's all the prayer is an expression

of the intent it is not causing anything

the causal relation is reversed here

so a concession is made for people who

don't understand these things and they

are told to pray whom there has to be

somebody you know because in the social

hierarchy the lower person the weaker

person prays to a stronger person for

food or whatever so you know that

metaphor was transferred there in the

spiritual world and it was catastrophic

people pray to something but that is

great and can fulfill all their desires

that is the whole corruption that has

happened so i never recommend this part

but in this series i am recommending it

because i have a hope there small amount

of hope that these things will be

cleared in coming years probably 50 or

100 or 200 years from now there will be

purification in devotional practices

also hopefully

so we already have two or three ways to

handle the evolution and on the path of

knowledge there is again one method

which everybody knows you can speed up

your revolution simply by remaining

aware which you will be as soon as you

realize who you are

then this realization shows up as

awareness a state which transcends the

four states it forms a background of all

the states and you will find there is a

speed up of the evolution now do not

assume that i am aware or i am doing it

obviously you cannot assume that if you

assume that you're already unaware

you're already in ignorance that is a

sign of ignorance that is the sign that

you haven't realized nothing at all

good way to say it is there is awareness

now instead of darkness and a bad way to

say that it is that i am aware and i am

speeding up my evolution that is what an

ignorant person will say sometimes i

also say it because that is what people

will understand because there is a kind

of blockage there there is a kind of

ignorance or a belief in ordinary minds

that i need to do something in order for

something to happen what do i need to do

to be aware that is the question that i

get a lot you told me to remain aware

because there is a work that you have

given me is a new job that i have which

pays nothing tell me how to do it

here is the limitation of the language

that because the instruction was formed

like a job to be done it was taken as

an action to be

done and then

the person is demanding a method to

remain aware so we try to you know

correct it i use the words like

remembrance and all this into to

make you understand that it is not an

action it is simply being what you are

and if you forget if you slip you can

remember it again you see it is like

staying awake being in your true nature

all the time

sometimes there will be activity

sometimes there will be strong activity

it's all okay come back to where you are

so it involves non-doing it does not

involve doing and we have talked about

it a lot so i'm not going to repeat it

again go and listen to all the past

meetings probably it appears in every

other meeting and you will find that

there is a miracle that happens it

speeds up the evolution

you don't even need to do the self

evaluation or things like this your

evaluation is always in front of you

your blockages and your resistances are

apparent they are already in front of

you clearly visible so on the path of

knowledge we handle the evolution by not

doing anything it is it is basically

magic and is the most direct thing that

i've found

yes there are brute form force methods

of doing it you see and there are

methods where other entities and other

people are involved there are ways in

which the whole group the collective

mind the group mind gets a push from

each other and there are more exotic

ways you see the whole greater mind

sometimes creates a whole universe in

which conditions are provided for

revolution

and you can suspect that we are in such

arrangement right now we are in a school

where evolution is very fast we are

fortunate

if you find suffering in one of the

universes you can simply conclude

logically that it is meant for evolving

it is not meant for experiencing and we

find a lot of suffering here so

conclusion is that we are evolving very

fast even without doing anything

so pick any method to handle it or just

let it happen by itself it's all okay

because it's happening by itself anyway

and remain aware all the time and

evolution will take care of itself

there's no need to worry too much about

it sometimes i call it

floating in the river flowing with the

river or there is even a better

metaphor which is riding in a train

now you are in a train you are sitting

there quietly nicely watching the

scenery from the window and now somebody

tells you that look we are going at a

speed of let us say 120 kilometers per

hour but there is a way to speed it up

to 200 kilowatts per hour and then we

will reach the other station very

quickly and that fellow disappears after

saying this

and you are now worried how how to go

there faster and you find a device that

you know gives you this control over the

train and it is a fake device train is

going at its own speed it is carrying

you at a very high speed already but you

keep worrying that i am not going faster

i need to go fast and then you push some

buttons and so on you see sometimes the

driver of the train will speed it up by

his own will he finds a clear track and

then speeds up and you will simply say

oh look what i what i have done here is

that i have caused the train to speed up

this is the condition of many ignorant

people things happen they say i did it

the train is going already the train

will speed up whenever it wants to speed

up just relax and watch

in the early days i used to get this

trick bet you don't do anything for your

revolution just ensure that you don't

fall back don't do anything which like

destroys your your current progress

that's that's what that's what i was

doing so don't fall back don't go

backwards that was my formula and the

train is already taking you forward so

that is the only mistake we can do that

we can fall we can go backwards

and if you ensure that you do you're not

going backwards then there is no other

way but to go forward

you are already in a boat that the river

is taking you the river is carrying you

just don't start rowing in the opposite

direction and you will be fine so that

is the lazy way to evolve how do we how

do we know that

we are going backwards how can we find

out that i am not going with the flow

there is a resistance there which is

taking me away from the speeding river

the current

and it is very easy if you are resisting

if you are struggling if you are

suffering if you are always sad and

confused and fearful and angry and you

are doing same things to others also you

are making them sad fearful and angry

then obviously you are retarding you are

devolving this is the sign of it

some people will say no no this i am

very good but all these bad things

happen to me it's it's okay it's fine if

you're sad because something happened

accidentally because you're about to die

next week somehow because of a disease

and all

it's not devolution it is perfectly okay

it is evolution only because you are not

doing it you are simply you can say

experiencing that situation i won't call

it a victim of situation there is no

such thing it is all our doing so you

find in sometimes you find yourself in

situations where it looks like it is

suffering is perfectly okay just learn

from it don't blame people or something

else or yourself for it

so turn it into an opportunity the

obstacle is the path the resistance is

the opportunity the suffering is also

grace
