¹The bodiless stage is the most elevated.

²The soul is at first bodiless and it is said to be incorporeal.

³It adopts a body later.

⁴This is our aim.

⁵But even this is common.

⁶No one has the practice of actually remaining bodiless.

⁷Just as Baba is bodiless, so also we are sitting with Baba in a bodiless stage.

⁸So you have to have this stage whilst sitting, moving, walking etc.

⁹Just as Baba comes and speaks with the support of physical organs and then becomes bodiless, we souls also have to have the same practice.

¹⁰This is the most elevated stage.

¹¹Like a tortoise, we have to enter a body, carry out our activities and then become bodiless again.

¹²There are even certain activities for which we do not need to enter the body.

¹³We shall Continue to receive strength to the extent that we stay with Baba in His remembrance.

¹⁴So you have to make effort to imbibe this stage.

¹⁵Just as one moment Baba is in the body and the next moment He becomes bodiless so, also, if we learn to fly as quickly as Baba does, our wings will emerge.

¹⁶This is not a topic for new people.

¹⁷This is like French to them.

¹⁸This dharna is for those who have been here longer.

¹⁹There is also a method for remembrance.

²⁰You have to make your stage very light.

²¹This is a very simple and sweet stage.

²²Whilst being on duty or whilst being in your home, this practice is like a shield of safety from the many things that make you forget and through which you commit little sins.

²³Then you will not be shot by the bullet of Maya.

²⁴Just as Baba understands that He has taken this body on loan so, also, we have adopted this body for the sake of service. ²⁵So the more you stay in that stage, the safer you will remain from the five evil spirits.

²⁶This is extremely subtle.

²⁷Externally you do not sit in tapasya or go into trance.

²⁸The department of trance is separate.

²⁹We cannot call that the bodiless stage.

³⁰These points are very subtle.

³¹You have to practise this.

³²Our place of safety is sitting quietly with the Father in a bodiless stage, just as a child quietly goes and sits in the lap of his parent when he is afraid of something.

³³We fully understand that we are actors.

³⁴If someone is doing something wrong, that is also his part. ³⁵There is no need for any excitement, or sorrow about it.

³⁶You need this dharna very well.

³⁷You have to pay as much attention as is necessary and then maintain your awareness of the self, Whilst practising this, you will go and sit with Baba.

³⁸Then you will remain safe for twenty-one births, for two thousand five hundred years and your karma is also elevated then.

³⁹The five evil spiiits do not exist at that time.

⁴⁰So the more you stay in that awareness, the more the pure sanskars and the nature of the soul will emerge.

⁴¹This is for uplifting yourself.

⁴²You are going high up, away from this world.

⁴³It is said that the deities do not set foot on earth.

⁴⁴That is, they do not come onto the vicious earth.

⁴⁵But the earth also exists there.

⁴⁶So we have to lift our feet from here and return home.

⁴⁷A guru's duty is to take us back home.

⁴⁸He purifies us, that is, he takes us from degradation into salvation.

⁴⁹This involves making effort and making the self fly.

⁵⁰Baba teaches us to fly in the same way as a small bird is taught how to fly.

⁵¹We have to remain bodiless in the incorporeal world, not in the corporeal or the subtle worlds.

⁵²All this is a matter of the cleanliness of the intellect.

⁵³The term used is: Yoga, of the intellect.

⁵⁴Many people teach yoga for the hands and feet.

⁵⁵This, however, .requires cleanliness of the intellect through which the soul becomes clean.

⁵⁶This is the effort of the present time; then you will not have to make any effort.

⁵⁷You create divine relationships at this time for twenty-one births, for two thousand five hundred years.

⁵⁸So you have to create a clean register for many births at this time, and you have to finish the impure accounts.

⁵⁹People think that making effort means not giving sorrow or telling lies or becoming angry.

⁶⁰However, we say: Even to come into body-consciousness means to give sorrow to one another.

⁶¹This is why you have to remain bodiless.

⁶²You do not have to do anything extema11y.

⁶³See how fashionable the deities are. ⁶⁴People decorate the non-living images so much So their palaces would be so beautifully decorated when they ·truly exist.

⁶⁵Vishnu is so beautifully decorated.

⁶⁶Here there are artificial decorations.

⁶⁷There is no need to use lipstick or powder there.

⁶⁸There is nothing lacking.

⁶⁹There are rivers of milk flowing.

⁷⁰It isn't that milk really flows in the. rivers, but that there is plenty of everything.

⁷¹The deities lack nothing.

⁷²They are fully prosperous.

⁷³That isn't imagination.

⁷⁴No human being can give this knowledge.

⁷⁵Only God explains this.

⁷⁶So you have to make such effort as will enable you to attain everything.

⁷⁷This is why it is said that this is the most elevated sacrificial fire of all, because all sacrificial fires are saaifired in it.

⁷⁸You are praised as the most elevated in every respect.

⁷⁹This is why it is said: I am there wherever there is victory.

⁸⁰Maya defeats you.

⁸¹It is not said: I am present where there is defeat.

⁸²This is the elevated sacrificial fire of God.

⁸³We can see the signs for destruction increasing.

⁸⁴We are also progressing.

⁸⁵You are also said to be bodiless whilst you are in a body.

⁸⁶You have forgotten the bodiless stage and this is why you are made to develop it properly.

⁸⁷The method for this is so simple and easy.

⁸⁸Just sit with the Father, the Supreme Soul, that is all.
