Today I am not channelling. I have been told that I need to speak to the group once in a while. And I am going to do a small meditative exercise and I am going to speak a little about it, so that we know what we are going to do. The meditation or exercise is about devotion; more specifically devotion to self. We are doing Ray 6 as a group so maybe it’s topical because Ray 6 is about devotion to self.

I will speak a little about the meditation so we do the meditation better and not blindly. When I sat in meditation yesterday, three casual incidents came together in my mind, which had already happened; and as it happens in meditation, it didn’t happen in sequence or in linear time.

I had ordered a crystal many months ago from somewhere far away and I was looking forward to it with excitement. the crystal came and I fell in love with it allover again when I saw it, and then I held it up in the light as we are wont to do, and in my crystal I saw tiny scratches and a nick… and my mood came plunging down, and I was very angry and said I am going to ask for a refund, and that love at first sight was sort of disappearing. But I sat with the crystal in my meditation and the crystal told me that it had willfully come to me like that. It could have easily got itself polished and spitted, but it did not because I had asked the Masters that I want to understand Ray 6 and devotion. So the crystal said that why it has come to me, is not because I have to embrace the crystal the way it is, but so that I can understand that I and all of us are beautiful, lovable, love-at-first-sight material, just the way we are. And if I could embrace that then I could embrace the crystal automatically and I would embrace everybody around me. By embracing myself, I would be devoted to self, and that is devotion which the Masters talk about. We usually start with devotion to the Gods outside, and then we move to devotion to higher selves, larger selves, but never devotion to the current Divyaa, Kaushal, Nandinie. So it is through devotion through self, the current self, that you then start being devoted to everybody and the circle is complete.

The second thing which came in my meditation was a joke Mayank had cracked. He is going to be wondering what it is. It was very lovingly and jokingly said if taken in the right spirit. He said our cosmic temple is going to be lopsided….. Tall pillar, short pillar, fat pillar…. and I had given him some rejoinder and forgotten about it. When this came in my meditation I was wondering where it was going, and I was asked to seek that probably all of us have now moved out of the feeling that the physical really matters, but that all of us feel that we are spiritually too thin or spiritually less, spiritually short. We want to be spiritually more. And that’s an oxymoron, because ‘spiritually’ there is no less or more. ‘Spiritually’ we all are just the way we need to be. We need to really grasp that, so thanks Mayank.

And even here another thing came; very often we all think that our ‘purpose’ has to be something very high-funda or very spiritual. Our purposes are just whatever is giving you joy. It might be cooking. It might be a relationship I need to resolve. Purposes are not always large, humungous purposes. If we devote ourselves to whatever is our purpose now, however mundane it might seem, it will open us up to those larger and larger purposes.

The third thing that came into my meditation was something that happened about a month ago. I was trying to understand Ray 6 and I told the Masters to give me an example. I was in the car and had put on a bhajan (a devotional song). I am not a devotional song, bhajan kind, and it was a love song and if you hear the words, most love songs can be devotional songs and devotional songs can be the ideal love songs. A big yearning developed in me in the car. It was a song to Guru and God and I was saying "No, I want to see you." And you know when I talk to my higher selves and Masterselves – Jade Fire and I am telling Jadefire "You know I want to see you, I want to be you." And He is saying "You are me." And I said "No, no that’s not what I am going to do today. That’s only for my meditation. That’s fine, I touch you in my meditation but I want to see you hardcore physical." And he said "Ok, put down the rear view mirror." And I said "No, that’s not good enough. I know where you are going and you are telling me to look at myself." He just said, "This whole song that you have heard, sung, to the whole, to the God, universal consciousness, to me - Jade Fire, now sing it, word to word to current self. When you can really do that, then you are going to feel this yearning for me, but it will become a fulfilled yearning." It will be the delicious ache. That’s the best I can put it.

That is the song I am going to play now and I am going to ask all of you to sing it to yourself, word to word. I would like to tell you, it sounds very easy, but every time I started it Jade Fire would come in somewhere. He would make me do it again and again, till through the whole song there was only Divyaa.

So please try doing that today. I have timed the song before coming. It’s only four and a half to five minutes. The reason I am saying this, is because a lot of us are going to say, "Oh my God, it’s so long because that happened to me." We can spend hours hearing Masters, Godself, knowledge, information but 5 minutes with yourself, is a tough one. So try it. Close your eyes. This is devotion to self.

(The devotional song was played)

While the energies are here, so strongly of self devotion, I will ask you to enter your heart chakra from the back. Chakras open to the front and back. And the reason I am asking you to enter the heart from the back, is because from the front you are usually facing or feeling, expressing to the world, to the physical world and others around you. Try this for yourself at home. Don’t take anything for granted. When you enter from the back you are in ‘no space’ and ‘no time’. Over here, I would like you to create that most beautiful altar. You can go as imaginative as you like. You can go very basic, you can make a shelf, a puja room, whatever you like, but an altar to yourself. Yes, you may have, like you have pictures of your Gods, you have crystals, you may now put what is symbolic of yourself , your essence. It doesn’t have to be something you are good at. It has to be essences that you enjoy. You may enjoy cooking, you may like dancing. You can keep a crystal pair of stilettos there. But an altar to yourself.

Whenever you feel unloved, powerless, lack of self worth, enter from the back of your heart chakra to this altar to yourself. See how good it makes you feel. You must have a mirror of course, but it is a mirror you must understand…. devotion to self, means devotion to everybody else too. So let it be a magical mirror which opens like a window, and all other beings can reflect in this mirror.

You may have two chairs for and whenever you are at odds with somebody, you may invite him or her here. And when you talk to him or her as yourself, you will see the larger picture. And that itself will change the way your relationship is. Whenever you are ready, you may open your eyes. Create this altar at home again. Just don’t do it today; a point will come when you will not need to create an altar. It will be how you feel for self.

Thank you.

Greetings from the Ashtar command. What wonderful new energies are present in the room today with us. Do you see them son (To Sam)?

Today I hold the energies of every single entity within this chamber. Today you shall each look at me and see your true selves. This is more for the so called new comers. They hold wonderful energies.

(To a member of the audience) Let it seep into your system, try it and let go. Thank you.

(To a member of the audience) Do you see yourself? And why does it make you smile? It has to.

Our son here (Sohrab) will hold these energies for the rest of this session. He will transmute them to the room and to anyone who requires them.

(To Nargis) Why do you not look for me anymore? I am with you.

Meherbaba:

Kem cho badao? Saibji. Jai Baba. Kevo badda. Jai Baba

Kevo badda sathe – Jai Yezad. Kevo ni. – Jai Yezad. Kem nallo hase che? Tane pan ek be bamboo ape na. Its important. Pacha kaho – Jai Yezad. (Laughter)

Meher baba: He will not. There is still time for that but I think today, he understood my message. Bamboo malyu ne? Pachu kevrao?

Jai Yezad.

Are wah!

You are all Masters dear ones. Need we say that to you time and time again? Our dear son here refuses to accept that. So even though connections are made, day in and day out, he will make sure that by the end of his working day he severs those connections. I watch you (Yezad) very closely, closer than you will imagine. Too close for comfort actually. And I am there standing with my bamboo. I will never give up. Dare you.

Badda eidam serious thai gay ache aaje (laughter) Just want to show you the more rough and tough side of Baba.

(To a member of the audience) Kem nalli, connect with me. You have made a great leap with your affirmation today. I will be watching you today also.

And to all our new comers, all the people within this chamber and all of those who have come to these glorious meetings time and time again, I am connected with you all. And I ask you once more to give me, give me our troubles. Why do you hang onto them so tightly? Every little pain and trouble and problem that anyone in this universe has caused you, you hold onto with all your might. "He said this to me, I loved him but he did not love me back." Go back to childhood, you will find those instances. You still hold onto them. "He said this to me when I loved him so much, how could he?" "Why did she leave me when I needed her so much?" "How could they leave and go to another realm. I live with grief, I live with remorse. I wish I could have said this to her, before she left." Every little trouble in life, no matter how tiny, is held onto. It sticks to your outer body like glue. It prevents ascension. It prevents a natural evolution of your species. You need to let go now, how much ever you can. It does not mean that you cannot think of that human being, but when you think of that one person, it will be with complete abandonment, with complete joy. Yes, the memories of pain will remain, but they will be only that, memories. They will not carry with them heavy baggage. You see you are the ones that create that baggage. And so does this child, more than all of you all put together. He understands this, he knows about the letting go process. I ask you to let go. So give me more.

Ok Chalo, we shall do one thing. Today I shall stop talking. I shall ask a great, great Master to talk in my place. (Laughter) If anyone understands the process of letting go, it is this wondrous master. You think you have a tough time letting go. Let me ask her to very simply tell us today what it was like to let go of the one most important thing in her life. The one most cherished individual. I would like her to just tell us very simply, what happened in those last few moments, of letting go. Will you do that for us dear one?

I hope everyone could understand beyond the words, what happened in this wonderful case. She truly was happy, because she realized the universal soul connection with that one entity. She realized that their work together, was over, on the physical plane. She realized that the next step in her beautiful and his beautiful evolution was to completely let go. And so she did, with joy and with abandonment. Use her as an example. Now let go.

You see without you, I am but your dream. Only that and that is all. Now finally let’s say once more. Jai myself. Wonderful. Say that everyday to yourself. It’s very important.

Greetings from the command.

Greetings of Metatron.

When one considers with a logical mind, letting go is a foolish subject to discuss. Foolish, ill-logical and completely unnecessary. If you did not let go of the inner breath that would be a finality for you. Try. We command you for the next 5 minutes not to let go of your breath. We command. And you will not obey. Because isn’t survival, your instinct, your given right? And yet, you ponder long and hard about how to let go. Unnecessary. How can you not let go if survival is truly your instinct. Letting go follows but as natural cause of action.

But what is it to survive? Is it to exist? If that be your natural instinct then hold onto your breath for just a few minutes and you will exist but you will be in a condition of what you call brain dead. Go on. Take the leap. Exist. Be brain dead. For what is the purpose of existence, if the moment past is held onto, the moment present not welcomed, because the moment to come is too fearful to behold. Foolish. And you all call yourselves, sentient, thinking reasoning beings and yet, long and hard have you been spoken to of letting go. A subject not worth spending any time over, even when time is an illusion. (Laughter)

A seed falls into the Earth, protected by its hard outer coating, and the Earth lets go but naturally of its nutrients, its water. And the seed lets go naturally of its hard outer coating and its instinct for survival and growth gives it the urge to push, to break. Were it to be stubborn, and remain a seed, it would be brain dead….. In a state of dormancy which you call life.

Metatron does not address those that are dormant. We invite you to leave. Metatron commands only those who respect life. We invite you to leave. And not one obeys. Are we then to surmise that you respect life? Are we then to surmise that you respect yourself? If that be the reason why you are here then, you lie. Several lie. Where is respect for self when you have to be urged to let go?

Metatron commands only those who LIVE. When the shoot, shoots forth from the seed that willingly allows itself from the hard outer coating, to be broken, snapped into two, when it permits itself to shoot forth into the blackness, black of the Earth surrounding it, knowing that the blackness feeds it, nurtures it, cannot be a danger because it lives, its instinct for survival and growth makes it climb further and further and further to that surface, where this tiny shoot that can be broken and crushed by those two fingers of your hand, has the power to move the Earth aside, and spring towards the light because it has let go off its seedling stage.

And then does it rest? Do Masters have to speak on irrelevant subjects and ask it to let go of its infancy. No, it’s wiser than you. It grows. Allows itself to mature with the heat of the sun. Its roots get flooded by rain. It often bends under the burden of heavy winds and hail and frost; all that threatened to kill it. And still it fights, because it has let go.

When the sun shines again, does the shoot even recall the rain and the wind? It has already let it go. And so it grows tall. And then it begins to bear flower. And it grows in beauty. And it is the object of great appreciation and praise of all those who see the flower. And does it hold onto them? Were it to hold onto its beauty and its glamour, the minute you went forward to pluck its beauty so cruelly from off its chest, it would snap you in two. It has the power to move the Earth; it could snap you in two if it wished. But it does not. It lets go. Its very object of praise and beauty, it surrenders into your harsh hands, knowing that soon its beauty will rise again, knowing that the next flower to blossom will be even more beautiful.

But does it hold onto this greater beauty? No, it opens itself up and its very life force, the sweetness of its nectar it gives up to hovering bee that comes. It does not hold onto its life force. It lets it go, inviting the bee to suck long and hard, to take all that it desires from the flower. And then the flowers fall and it lets them go, knowing that what has to flower has to also bear fruit. And were it to hold on in foolish desire for outer beauty, it would never bear the fruit of all that it has worked so hard for.

And so it lets go off the fruit and the fruit falls. And all that it has worked hard for is now lying on the floor to be consumed by another. It lets it go, knowing too well, that it can never partake of the sweet fruit that it has worked so hard to ripen., but that the fruit must be given to another to enjoy. And the plant knows. But you need Masters to speak to you on this! And you call yourselves, thinking, logical, reasoning, intelligent being of light? Where is the light?

When the seed is holding fast to its outer coating, where is the light? When the shoot is scared of the darkness of the Earth surrounding it and refuses to move upwards, where is the light? When the beauteous flowering plant so conceited in self, wishes to hold on tight to the beauty of its flowers, where is the light? When the ripened fruit, is held onto, decaying, where is the light?

Question yourselves. Are you the seed, the shoot, the flower, the fruit? What are you? And if you are the fruit today, then haven’t you let go of so much already. You let go off the seed, you let go of the delicate infant plant. You have let go of the temporary beauty of the flower. You have let go off the sweetness of yourselves, so that the bee could suck, and now is it worth holding onto the fruit? When all that you have strived for is only to be the fruit that falls, so that others maybe nourished, are you now going to hold on to that fruit? Are you so foolish, not to see that if the fruit is not eaten by another it can never be enjoyed by you. No plant has ever enjoyed the sweetness of its own fruit. And yet as a natural course of survival and growth, it lets it go, knowing full well that in the eating of the fruit that it has borne, another seed falls to the earth. Another seed will grow. Another fruit will nurture and nourish someone else.

So we will not tell you to let go, we will tell you to not be foolish. And do not waste any of your illusory time now in matters such as letting go. Every time the thought occurs to you, you merely hold your breath back. If you can survive by not letting go of your breath, you then have the right to not let go of your fruit, your flower, your nectar. But first you must learn how to survive by not letting go of your breath.

Metatron speaks strongly but often it is when the hard nut of the coconut tree falls on your head that you look up and be aware that there is a strong tree and that the strong tree, is you. Look down and see how far your roots have already grown and gone. Look up and see how close you have reached to the shining sun and then laugh and say "how foolish I am." A large strong tall tree, scared to let go. It is the thought that is fearsome, not the act. You have let go of so much already, it’s just that you haven’t thought of it. As soon as you think of it, it strikes fear. And yet, how foolishly thrilled you are to call yourself a thinking being. Were you not thinking, you would be the senseless, foolish, plant that merely grows in order to share itself with another. How foolish, how senseless. It does not even, enjoy its own sweetness. How silly.

Why bear the burden of the fruit when I can’t enjoy it? Is your plant asking that? If it is, ask yourself another question in return. Would I be a plant today, if another plant had not dropped its seed and allowed me to grow?

Metatron commands you all to join his legion of angels. But only those who live fearlessly and in truth; for whom, letting go is as foolish a subject as it is for Metatron, are permitted to join. Ask then if you are ready.
