How to be Free of Attraction to the Fleeting and Perishing
Question - Maharajji ! We hear, understand, and know and then too we become attracted to the fleeting (rising and perishing) objects and persons. How can we be freed from this attraction?
Answer - See, you have at least recognized this. Or else, nowadays this point is not even comprehended, that these things, objects, persons are fleeting (rising and perishing), and I "Self" am free from that which rises and perishes. Even recognizing this separation between the two is not an ordinary thing. People believe them (body and self) to be one. They do not know that I (self) is the kind to remain and these (body, mind etc.) are the kind to be fleeting, born and later die.
"Kaamopabhogparama etaavaditi nischitaah" (Gita 16/11).
Their aim and goal is only one of desires, passion and enjoying worldly sense pleasures. Brother! You have at least seen that these are the kind to arise and perish ! They do not stay with us, and we cannot stay with them, if we recognize this, then this is not a small accomplishment. If you see among ordinary people, then you will come to know. If you sit with educated people then you will see. You think about your condition. Just as when I first came to Anand Ashram, at that time there used to be Satsang talks in the morning. You all used to also come at that time. At that time what was your notion and what is it now? (to be continued)
