That will come only when you know your Self, who you are. The highest aim is to rise into God consciousness. The same Controlling Power is keeping everyone of us in the body. They are of the same essence of God, like us a drop of the Ocean of all Consciousness. Why do we squeeze the blood of others? Why do we torment them? They have the same manbody as we have got. When these things are brought home to us, then our angle of vision will change. So this is the grand delusion in which we are all going down. One is by far sight, just as a man rowing in a boat looks to the shoals of a river, or the other way is to leave the boat. To see things in their right colour, there are only two ways. These things will remain here, you will go empty handed”. Masters say, “You have to leave this world.
Unless we have got the right view, we cannot see things as they truly are. Very great philosophers have come to the world, Masters have come to the world. We have to leave some day, sooner or later. When our body must be left behind, how can all other things which have come in connection with the body go along with us? This place, the earth or manbody, is not the place to live forever. This very body, the first companion that we get on being born into this world must be left behind. All our possessions have also to be left here. They will also have to leave us, or we will leave them. This body won’t remain here with us, nor will others who come as a reaction of the past. When that is finished, everybody has to leave, to take his own way. The question then arises, what about our relatives? We have been brought together as a reaction of our past karmas, our give and take. So this is our condition in the body which we are carrying. You must rise above bodyconsciousness, then you will see everything in its right perspective.
Shams tabrizi quotes on death how to#
So to see this, the Masters have said, “You must learn how to leave the body – Learn to die so that you may begin to live”. If you were out of the boat, you would see the boat and the men who were identified with it all going downstream. How grand a delusion it is! So one way is like that, and the other way is to be out of the body. But we have forgotten ourselves so much that although we see with our own eyes or carry dead bodies on our own shoulders, we are still not convinced that one day we have to leave the body. At these places you will see people bearing dead bodies on their shoulders, either to bury them or to consign them to the flames. Another effective way is to go and sit in a graveyard, or in a place where dead bodies are burnt. So there are two ways and the first one is by far sight.
You must be out of this delusion to enable you to see this world in its right perspective”. So the Masters advise, “O man, you are under a grand delusion, whether you are learned or unlearned, rich or poor. But the best way is to be out of the boat. When a man is sitting in a boat he should look to the shoals of the river and he will find that he is going downstream. There are two ways to be out of this delusion. The question arises of how to be out of this delusion? The body and the world, both of which are made of matter, are changing. If you are identified with the boat and the speed of the boat and the river is the same, then you appear to be stationary. Suppose some men are rowing in a boat and the boat is going in the same direction as the flow of the river. If two things are changing at the same speed and we are identified with one of them, then both appear to be stationary. Matter is changing every minute and at the same speed as our body is changing. The body is made of matter, the whole world is made of matter.
We are under a grand delusion for two reasons. With His grace you have got the manbody, the highest rung in Creation, in which you can go back to the true Home of your Father. You are conscious entities, a drop of the Ocean of all Consciousness. This body has been given to you with the grace of God to find your way back to Him. What is this delusion in which we are adrift? We are the indweller of the manbody but have become identified with the body so much so that we have become as if we were the body itself. LEARN TO DIE SO THAT YOU MAY BEGIN TO LIVE (by Sant Kirpal Singh Ji) Beneath you will find the explanation of it: This quote by Shams Tabrizi, a Sufi Master of Master of Maulana Rumi requires a closer look to make it undstand. But to reborn into a new life, you have to die before dying.” If each day is the copy of the last one, what a pity! Every breath is a chance to reborn. “It is never late to ask yourself “Am I ready to change my life, Am I ready to change myself”? However old we are, whatever we went through, it’s always possible to reborn.
