Aptavani-1
who gives up worldly life). On the other hand, a Vitarag will never react to a hundred thousand insults; there will not be any trace of a single vibration in Him. Do not cause any vibrations in this body of yours as a reaction to insults and pain hurled at you. All these vibrations of bodies around you are temporary. Ultimately they will all subside. Whether the body is made of pearls or diamonds, it is still temporary. What do you expect to gain by causing vibrations in it?

You are trapped because of your mind. But when you get married, you become trapped with mishrachetan (the complex of mind, speech, body and ego) which is not your own. If vibrations arise with your father, then why would they not occur with your wife? Wife is a mishrachetan, so what should you do there? You should stop all vibrations. Vibrations with your father are acceptable, but you will not be able to stop vibrations with your wife.
What is this tongue and this speech that creates and destroys and destroys and creates? It is the ego of the previous life. It is because of this ego that the tongue lashes out ruthlessly and creates vibrations, causing conflicts. Most of the miseries today are because of vibrations caused by the tongue and the speech.
In the current time cycle one is not fortunate enough to render good karma but has the misfortune of taking part in evil ones. After acquiring this Gnan the Mahatmas do not like any negative activities that take place due to the unfolding of a negative karma. Whether that karma is positive or negative, it is merely a discharge and in the process it will create corresponding vibrations and then everything will calm down. But for those who do not have Gnan, they may not even feel remorse when a negative karma is unfolding in this life. And so along with the vibrations of the unfolding karma, their reactions,
Aptavani-1 because of their ignorance, creates new vibrations (causal karma). Thus the vibrations are doubled. Because of ignorance there is no telling when the vibrations will occur and it will not matter whether the person is an ordinary householder or a tyagi (one who renounces worldly life). Wherever there is ignorance, there is presence of imaginary fear and where there is fear, vibrations are bound to occur. Vibrations create causes and effects of causes create more vibrations and waves.

What happens to a mirror if a sparrow comes and sits in front of it? The mirror remains the same but the sparrow sees another sparrow that looks just like her in front of her. She sees the same eyes and a beak and her belief changes that there is another sparrow like her in the mirror. She will start pecking at the sparrow. This is how everything is in the world. The world exists on such vibrations. A slightest change in one's belief will change one's vision and perception. Then one becomes what one sees. What a wonder the mirror is but it has become so common with people that they fail to see its mystery. They use the mirror to do their make up, comb their hair etc., and that is why the mirror has lost its worth. Otherwise the mirror is a very valuable thing. What a marvelous play of the physical complex (body) that is forming and disintegrating? When the sparrow comes before the mirror, it is not her knowledge that changes, but her belief. She believes there is another sparrow in the mirror and starts pecking at it. That is how the world is. One vibration gives rise to countless other vibrations.
The knowledge of the Self does not change, but beliefs change from moment to moment. If the knowledge of the Self changed, there would be no Self because the Self is knowledge. They are not separate. Just as a thing and its attributes remain together and never separate from each other, knowledge is the Self. Ordinarily what happens is people become what they imagine through their beliefs.
