Frequently Asked Questions and Misunderstandings
If all creation is a joke, why live?
You did not create yourself. You cannot destroy yourself either. What has created you can destroy you, but only when it is time. If you commit suicide, all you do is destroy the body, which is a violent act against an innocent creature that has no defenses against you.
Therefore, no matter what happens, live and endure the pain you feel. That is the way.
What must I do to meditate?
You must not meditate! Meditation is not an act, but an experience, a phenomenon. It happens when you are in a certain state of enlightenment. It is the unconscious that must always meditate, not the conscious mind. Meditating with the conscious mind is simply a way to keep your conscious mind busy so that you are, at least for a short period, not focused on the garbage of the world, that’s all.
No guru will prescribe a meditation practice for the sake of enlightenment. They do it to keep the really restless ones busy.
If I come to you, what should I do?
Sit silently until I ask you to ask a question, if you have one. If you simply sit silently, you will gain the most benefit. Gurus work silently. All questions and answers are for those who are too perplexed to sit still.
Is it possible to live without any pain?
Possible, yes, but difficult to achieve. You must endure the pain you feel until it is all gone. Most people do not have the skills to do so—they constantly medicate themselves, either with sex, drugs, pharmaceuticals, entertainment or what not. Pain will not leave unless experienced.
What does the Divine Feminine want?
All spiritual entities have only one interest: to create heaven on Earth. Do not pray to God or anyone up there, because they are all interested in us keeping our head firmly focused on Earth and creating a better world here. They are, in fact, serving us. You are not supposed to serve them. Higher intelligences always care for lower ones, like we do for animals. Do we expect animals to pray to us? No. It’s exactly the same way.
Meditation gives me peace. Why shouldn’t I continue?
If a guru has prescribed meditation for you then by all means, continue. Otherwise, you’ll only slow your own spiritual progress. You don’t want false peace, which comes from manipulating your system using yogic technologies like meditation. You want to transcend all that you consider to be false, which includes your physical existence. Only when you have transcended all creation itself can you really be at peace, without meditation. So doing meditation to have peace is like taking a painkiller: it does not solve the problem.W
What is the fundamental problem?
You are not the body. You are not the mind, nor the soul. You are not consciousness, existence or even creation itself. All these are within you, but they are not you. You must rise above all these things, realize your true nature and be firmly established in it. Your fundamental problem, if you aren’t fully enlightened, is that you identify with things you are not. This causes your body to keep trying to fix everything that is wrong with whatever you are focused on, such as your world.
In reality, everything in creation happens to be fine. It is wrong identification that causes misunderstanding, and therefore, wrong action. Fix your identity and you will see that everything is fine.
But what about the world? Isn’t it a mess?
The world is a mess because human beings have meddled in things that need not be meddled with. Life on Earth was just fine before human beings became obsessed with changing everything. Ultimately, humanity will come back to a state of natural living, but for now, it will be fixed only one way: non-participation. Instead of meddling in things further, humanity must let go of all these made-up problems, such as economics and poverty. All these problems are a result of humanity’s actions and the right solution is to stop those actions, not try and perform new/different actions.
In other words, most human beings need to stop wasting time performing action and simply sit still as much as possible. Only then will the world come back to balance.
But what about my job?
Your job will do its own thing, all by itself, if you learn to be still inside. Once you are firmly established in your own identity, no job will be there for you. Then you will simply live.
What about food, shelter, clothing?
There will not be any need for food, shelter or clothing. I know this is hard to believe, but you will not need any of it. Besides, there are many free food resources in most cities and towns in the USA. You are welcome to live off of those resources if you wish. Or you can live poor and eat occasionally like I do.
Spirituality sounds like a bad idea…
Please read my blog post on the why and why not of spirituality: it offers no worldly benefits, only inner peace, love, joy, happiness, etc. The world has always stepped up and taken care of truly spiritual people because we do not care for our own survival. It is an entirely giving, service-oriented life. People who wish to remain wealthy, etc. must not walk the spiritual path. They must serve in whatever fashion they can to make the world a better place though, because that offers happiness and fulfillment even if that fulfillment is only complete at the end of their life.
