Christ also said the same thing when he said, “I and my Father are One!”
What is this “I?”
The difference between the I of the Ancient One and of you all is that the first Iis free of all bindings, whereas your I is bound. What else can I say? I am THAT and I have to declare it. All else is illusion. After 100 years or so, you all will drop your bodies, but still you will be there. Don’t think about your body, think only about me, and just before you drop the body take my name. What you see of me physically is not what I am.
You have yet to see my Real Self. When you see it, you will be free from all bindings. One in a million can have a glimpse of me, and one out of the millions realizes me. Hafiz says that only one out of lakhs who have turned their bodies into dust out of love for God realizes God.”
But Baba has three solutions to free you forever from your bindings. It is impossible, first of all, to become the very dust under my feet in this body. The second solution is to be in the world with family, home, business, et cetera, but take Baba’s name fourteen times daily: not more, not less than fourteen times. Then you will come to me. Even fourteen times is difficult.
If you cannot do this, then do this much. When about to breathe your last, repeat my name, and come to me. This too is hard to do unless you start repeating it or loving me from now on, every second of your life. If you do not do it, you will not be able to remember me in your last moments.
Even if this is not possible, there is a last recourse which might help you. It is to do selfless service for others, as I am everywhere, in all and in everything. Service for the sake of service is selfless service. If you do this, under all circumstances and regardless of what happens, it will bring you to me.
