Feel the Meaning of the Word and We are Breath
Fall 2011
Given at the Lighthouse Center April 29 & 30, 2011 Transcribed by Nirali Becky Kleinschmidt
If we utter a word and the meaning does not touch our heart, the word becomes lip service. Most of the words we use, we use as lip service. When light extinguishes, the word stops. Words are lip service if the meaning does not touch our heart. Most people don't feel the feeling of the words that they are uttering. The way the word is uttered, if you feel the meaning of the word, you are on the path to enlightenment.
In Genesis there is a word; there was light, and what it was, it was a word. Word is a light. When you speak, there is light in you. Light speaks the word. Without light, word becomes an empty bulb. It has shape and size, but it has no light. If we go on using word, there are empty bulbs. In darkness, a big bulb will not help, but a tiny bulb will shed light. There was word and word was light, and light is the word.
When we say “Namaste", there is a very deep meaning. All oriental people use it, but at the same time they fight. So if they are fighting, I know they are using word, but without the light. The moment you feel light, you don't have the fight. You see the same in you and the other person. Another person is a reflection of you. If you have a clean mirror, you can see your figure. If you are alive, you see the figure. If not alive, and you show a mirror to a dead person, the person is there, but the seer is gone.
My friend you are not the figure, caste, creed, woman or man. You are the light. When you feel the light in you, you feel it in others. When you feel the light, you will not hurt others. You will help. Light will not hurt light. Light will help light. If there are two or three lights, and you bring in another outside light, li will merge with the other light. Light is not separate; inside and outside is in our mind. I wish and pray that the Lighthouse Center should become center of the light; not outsider. Don't judge anyone who is Christian, Jew or Muslim. See the light, not caste, creed or appearance. Healing starts from this.
