Mahavir said, "Don't worship me. Meditate and realize your life." It is not a religion, not a dogma. Each individual has to wake up. This teaching is to live day by day. With meditation, your consciousness will be very clean. You will have inspiration, insight, intuition, planning, no cobwebs. Intuition comes from cleanliness of consciousness. It was easy for me to leave thousands of people following me in India, because I had the inspiration to leave. I was not attached to all those people. Each person who becomes a Vegan is an inspiration. If you control your tongue, you will have good communication, a good relationship with the world. Anyone who has conquered their tongue has conquered the world. Mahavir says, "Be aware of your language, use it properly, do not speak negative words."
I am a starter, like jump starting a car when the battery goes down. So the blessing of the Third Eye is a starter for the energy within you. Denial of Divinity is sin. To eat something wrong is not a sin, it brings a wrong consequence. If you eat wrong, you get wrong. If you go on smoking, you get cancer or a heart attack. Instead, breathe in SO-HUM. There is no sin, only consequence. If you deny yourself, and put yourself down, that could be called sin. With awareness you can see and speak what is beautiful about you. Once you are aware of your divinity, you will see the wholeness, truth and beauty of your life.
Whatsoever you are, you are beautiful. Don't compare. The moment you compare, you have lost your beauty. Respect yourself. Accept yourself. You can change your wrong thinking. Then you will be happy and you will not make demands on others. A teacher said, "Each time you fall, don't blame, but pick up something." Each day make a little change for the better. That way, `day by day you are empowering yourself.
The sun does not know what darkness is. When asked, it said, "I don't see any darkness, show it to me." Darkness cannot exist for the sun. When there is no light, there is darkness. In the same way, we are like the sun. When our light shines, we do not see the darkness.
