The Testament Of
Secrets November 1991 Chapter 4 Then I Prepare You For The Way Of The Heart, By Giving
You My Word At Heart and Always Standing There, So That You,
By Heart-Response To My Word, and By Heart-Responsive
Feeling-Contemplation Of My Bodily (Human) Form, My
Spiritual (and Always Blessing) Presence, and My Very (and
Inherently Perfect) State, Will Realize You Too Are Only The
Heart Itself After Thirty Years Of Submission To conditional
Existence, My Own Ordeal (By Which I Came Again To Divine
Self-Realization, and Then Began To Teach The Way Of The
Heart) Culminated In Most Profound self-Enquiry (In The Form
“Avoiding Relationship?”). In That self-Enquiry, The Act and
The Results Of self-Contraction of the body-mind Were
Loosened (In Merely Witnessing Consciousness, Itself), and A
Spontaneous Revelation Took Place. There Was Spontaneous
Tacit Awareness As That To Which (and In and As Which) the
self-Contraction, all thoughts, and all conditional
appearances Are arising. Thus, Enquiry Into (and
Re-Cognition Of) the conditional self (and its Tacit
Underlying Root-Feeling Of Relatedness Itself) Was
Spontaneously Replaced By Tacit Awareness As The
Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine Self (or
The Self-Existing and Self-Radiant Feeling Of Being,
Itself), and It Became Obvious That Consciousness Itself Is
Inherently Love-Blissful and Free. Even More, It Became
Obvious That all conditional appearances Are Only Apparent
Modifications Of Consciousness Itself, and No Such
Modifications Bind or Change It. Even More, As conditional
appearances arose and Were Thus Divinely Recognized, The
Self-Existing and Self-Radiant Power and Divine Love-Bliss
Pervaded them all, Divinely Transfiguring and Divinely
Transforming them. Therefore, Who I Am (The Inherent or
Native Feeling Of Being, Itself) Stands Free, Self-Existing
and Self-Radiant, Even In The Midst Of Apparent
conditions. This Realization Developed Through A Progress Of
Extraordinary Revelations, Until It Was Fully and Finally
and Inherently Perfected, In The Great Event Of My Divine
Re-Awakening. Immediately After That Great Event, My Work
(or Play) For The Sake Of The Awakening Of others
Spontaneously Began. Suddenly, Many Extraordinary Siddhis (or Great “Bright”
Blessing Powers) Appeared, and, With Them, many Unusual
Natural siddhis (or Uncommon psycho-physical Abilities and
Processes). My Teaching Work Began Mysteriously, and By
These Means. Again and Again, In Vision, I Saw Vast Numbers Of My
Future Listening Devotees, and Hearing Devotees, and Seeing
Devotees. Originally, I Blessed and Taught them Simply By
“Meditating” them Thus, In Vision. Eventually, they Began To
Come Into My Physical Company, and The Work Continued There,
Equally Spontaneously. This Is How I Began To Teach, and,
Over time, By Observing and Responding To What those who
Came To Me Required, I Was Moved To Serve them In A Lively
and Even Unconventional Manner. In My Responsive Observation Of all those who Came To Me,
I Realized That I Could (and, Indeed, That, For their Sake,
It Would Be Necessary For Me To) Submit To their conditions
Of Existence, Reflect them To themselves (In Order To
Stimulate and Awaken their self-Understanding), and
Gradually Draw them Out Of self-Bondage By Attracting them
To The Spiritual, Transcendental, and Divine Condition Of
God, Truth, or Reality. Therefore, I Did All Of That. Within a year After The Great Event Of My Divine
Re-Awakening, a small number of individuals Had Begun To
Associate with Me On A Regular Basis, For The Sake Of The
self-Transcending Practice In My Company. Their Commitment
To The Great Process Was Weak. Their Qualifications Were Not
Great. My Spontaneous or “Crazy” Teaching Work Had Barely
Begun. Even So, It Became Time To Openly Announce My
Availability and To Embrace My Teaching Work (or Sacrifice)
From The Heart. Therefore, On The Basis Of A Free
Heart-Impulse (and No Great Reception In the world), I Began
The Fierce Labor and The Humorous Love-Ordeal Of My Formal
Teaching Work. That Labor or Ordeal Was To Continue Until My Word Of
Revelation and Instruction Was Fully Generated, The
Necessary (First) physical Agents Were Empowered and
Established, The Original and Progressively Developing
Cultural Means Were Called Into Being, and At Least A Good
Number Of My Listening Devotees Were, By Devotional
Listening, Entered Into The Foundation Practice Of The
self-Transcending Way Of The Heart. This Testament Is The Evidence Of The Completion Of My
Formal Teaching Work. This Testament Is My Summary Word Of Heart That Forever
Speaks The Way Of The Heart Itself (That Is Perfected and
Perfectly Revealed In The Feeling-Contemplation Of My Bodily
Human Form, My Spiritual, and Always Blessing, Presence, and
My Very, and Inherently Perfect, State). In This Testament, I Will Describe Each and All Of The
Forms (and Possible Developmental Stages) Of By Me Given
Practice Of The Way Of The Heart, Including The Entire and
Progressive Process Of “Reality Considerations”, and The
(Potential, and Progressive) Stages Of Life and Of
(Progressive, and, Ultimately, Inherently Perfect)
Realization That Develop In The Way Of The Heart (In Its
Technically “Fully Elaborated” Form, and In Its Technically
“Simpler” Form, and In Its Technically “Simplest” Form).
Then (Now and Hereafter) I Am Merely Present, and Present As
Constant Love and Blessing To all beings. Therefore, I Am Most Attractive To All My Listening
Devotees, and To All My Hearing Devotees, and To All My
Seeing Devotees. And I Am Always Available For their Right
and Free Regard Of My Great Heart-Revelation, Which Right
and Free Regard Is To Be Progressively Expressed Through
Meditation and Every Kind Of Auspicious Exercise Of The
Heart. And All Of This Heart-Regard Of Me Becomes
(Progressively, and Spontaneously, By Grace) Right and Free
Regard (and Realization) Of The Spiritual, Transcendental,
and Divine Self-Condition In Which My Listening Devotee, My
Hearing Devotee, and My Seeing Devotee Stand Eternally. All Of My Work With those who (First or Earliest) Came To
Me, and Every Word That I Spoke (and Sometimes Also Wrote)
For their Sake (and For The Sake Of all who Would Listen To
Me, and Hear Me, and See Me, In The Course Of time), Was and
Is A “Consideration” and An Elaboration (or A Detailing) and
A Summarizing Of The Word and The Way Of The Heart That I
Have Always and Consistently Offered Even From The Very
Beginning Of My Work As Heart-Teacher and Free, True
Heart-Master. My Word Is Simple. I Say, Attend To Me and (Thereby)
Understand and Transcend Your Own activity. If any one Will Feel and Examine his or her
(psycho-physical) state In any moment, Whether Under the
worst Or Under the best Or Under the most ordinary of
circumstances, he or she Will Surely Discover That There Is
Always A Characteristic Feeling Of Stress, or Dis-ease, or A
Motivating Sense Of Dilemma. Therefore, human life
(Characteristically Felt As Such Stress, Dis-ease, or
Dilemma) Is Also Always Characterized By Struggle, or A
Generally Uninspected (and Never Finally Satisfied) Search
For Release and Fulfillment. The usual life Is Always Actively Involved (Whether
Consciously Or Unconsciously) In This Motivated Search and
This Native Distress. Therefore, every such a one Is
Involved In Programs Of Seeking, Via desire, In all kinds of
relations and circumstances. My Word Is A Direct Address To The Distress and The
Search Of each individual. I Do Not Suggest A Way or A
Method By Which To Seek . Instead, I Call the individual To
Observe himself or herself, To Feel and Examine The Distress
That Motivates the life Of Seeking itself. Through self-Surrendering (and Truly self-Forgetting)
Feeling-Contemplation Of My Bodily (Human) Form, My
Spiritual (and Always Blessing) Presence, and My Very (and
Inherently Perfect) State, and (In The Constant Context Of
That Practice Of Feeling-Contemplation) Through Real
“Consideration” Of My Heart-Confessions, My Teaching
Arguments, My Fundamental Questions, and The Leelas (or
Stories) Of All My Work (Whereby I Have Reflected
individuals To themselves, and Blessed them To Awaken),
Interested (and Truly Devoted) individuals Can (By Grace)
Come To Understand (and Transcend) themselves. The Initial Process Of Listening (To The Degree Of
Hearing) Is One Of self-Observation (Truly Felt), Whether By
The Primary Practice Of Devotion and Insight Or By The
Primary Practice Of Devotion and Faith, Until That
self-Observation Becomes A Crisis Of Most Fundamental
self-Understanding. At First (In The Listening Course Of The Way Of The
Heart) the individual Becomes Acutely Aware Of his or her
Habits Of Seeking, Desiring, Doubting, Believing,
Manipulating, Betraying, and Always Returning To The Same
Distress and Want. Then, As The Crisis Of Most Fundamental
Understanding Approaches, It Suddenly Becomes Clear That All
Of That Is Being Motivated By A Constant Feeling Of
Distress, Which Is The Result Of self-Contraction In The
Face Of all relations and conditions. This Discovery Is Most Profound. It Is As If a person In
Pain Suddenly Discovers That he or she Is Pinching his or
her own flesh. (And This Discovery Produces Immediate
Relief, As Soon As The Pinching Ceases.) Therefore, As Soon
As an individual Discovers That The Painful Search That
Occupies his or her life Is Being Created By A Fundamental
Feeling Of Distress, attention Is Free To Examine That
Distress Itself. And When That Distress Is Directly (and
Profoundly) Examined, It Is Discovered That It Is The Result
Of A Chronic (and self-induced) Contraction Of the
body-mind, or, Most Simply, The Habitual (and, Ultimately,
Always Voluntary and Un-Necessary) Avoidance (or
self-Contracting Refusal) Of Relationship and
Relatedness. Every Apparent individual, thing, circumstance, or
condition arises, survives, changes, and disappears
Dependently (or Always Already Related) Within The Cosmic
Universe (Which Is Continuous, Whole, and All-Containing).
By Definition (and In Fact) There Is Not (Nor Can There Be)
any Separate, self-Contained, Independent, or
self-Sufficient conditional individual, thing, circumstance,
or event. However, By Reaction To All Apparent
Vulnerability, and Otherwise By Forgetting, or By Failing To
Notice or Intuit The Whole (and The Inherently Perfect,
Which Inherently Transcends Even The Whole), The Tendency Of
every conditionally Manifested individual Is To Contract
Into (Presumed) Separateness, or a self-Defended and
self-Contracted emotional, mental, psychic, physical, and
social state Of Isolation, Presumed Independence, and
Dramatized Want. This Tendency Is Chronic In every one, and
It Is Not Generally Even Inspected, Nor Is It (Without
Inspection) Understood. Therefore, every one Seeks. And All
Seeking Is Inevitably Frustrated. The self-Contracting Habit
(Itself) Is Not (and Cannot Ever Be) Transcended In (or By
Means Of) The Search, Because The Search Is Itself The
Dramatization Of The self-Contracting Habit Itself. I Call every one To Feel and To Thoroughly Observe and To
Transcend The Habit Of egoity. Eventually, any one who Truly
Listens To My Word and, By The Means I Have Given (and
Always Give), Fully Embraces The Ordeal Of
Feeling-Contemplation (Of Me) and Observation (Of the
ego-“I”) Will Surely (Truly, and Most Profoundly) Discover
The Root Of Seeking and Suffering, Which Is the
self-Contraction, The Complex Avoidance Of Relationship, or
The Habit Of “Narcissus”. When This Discovery Is (By Grace) Truly and Fully Made
and Felt (Relative, Summarily, To Every Aspect Of personal
Existence), A Crisis Of Spontaneous (and Not Strategic)
Release Is Enjoyed. And When It Is Truly (and Most
Fundamentally) Understood That self-Contraction Is The
Motivating Pain Of life, It Becomes Increasingly Possible
(In every moment Of The Feeling-Contemplation Of My Bodily
Human Form, My Spiritual, and Always Blessing, Presence, and
My Very, and Inherently Perfect, State) To Enquire Into the
self-Contraction (“Avoiding Relationship?”) and (Thereby)
Feel Beyond the self-Contraction, or, Otherwise, In The
Manner Of The Devotional Way Of Faith, To Directly Feel
Beyond the self-Contraction, and Thus (Progressively, and
Ultimately) To Enjoy A Native Sense Of Freedom (and Fullness
Of Being) And any one who Has (Through Responsive Devotional
Listening To Me) Thus Become Responsible For This Actively
self-Transcending (or Directly Counter-egoic)
Feeling-Capability Has Heard Me Truly. The Way Of The Heart (or The Practice That Is The Heart
Itself) Is Begun Through The (Necessarily Devotional)
Practice Of Listening (or By Feeling-Contemplation Of My
Bodily Human, and All-Revealing, Form, and By Likewise
Devotional “Consideration” Of My Heart-Revealing Word and
Leelas), but The Way Of The Heart (or The Practice That Is
The Heart Itself) Becomes Directly Effective (or Effective
In The Most Fundamental, or Directly self-Transcending,
Manner) Only With Real and True Hearing. Therefore,
Listening To The Point Of Hearing Is (Itself) The First
Ordeal (or Struggle With the ego-“I”), and It Can Take a
long time, Especially If The Devotional Impulse, The
self-Transcending Impulse, and The Great Intention Of the
individual Are Weak. By My Now and Hereafter Ever-Given Sign, and Through The
Words Of This Testament (and All The Told Play and Words Of
My Teaching Time), I Will Always Be The Heart-Teacher and
True Heart-Master In Relation To any one who (Formally)
Enters Into This Listening Process That Becomes True
Hearing. And This (Necessarily Devotional) Process Of
Listening and Hearing Must (By Grace) Lead (Progressively)
Toward True Seeing (or Spiritually Activated Life and
Practice), but The Process Of Listening and Hearing Is Not
Itself A Necessarily (or Otherwise Fully) Spiritual
Practice, Unless True Hearing Goes On To Do Its Work In The
Seeing Context Of The Advanced and The Ultimate Stages Of
Life. (And, Until There Is True Hearing, Listening In The
Way Of The Heart Is Itself The Blessed, Gifted, and Inspired
Struggle For self-Understanding, To Recapture The Direct
Feeling-Capability For self-Transcendence.) No one who Has Not Yet Heard Me and Seen Me Is, In The
Spiritual Sense, Able To Most Fully Embrace Me As True
Heart-Master (Beyond Acknowledgement, Acceptance, and
Embrace Of Me As Adept Heart-Teacher, and The Beginners Yet
To Be Fully Spiritually Responsible Resort To Me As True
Heart-Master). No one who Has Not Yet Heard Me and Seen Me Is Truly (and
Effectively) Able To Practice What Can Be Practiced Only By
those who Have Heard Me and Also Seen Me (or Come To The
Divine Person By Grace, Through Most Fundamental
self-Understanding, and Through Spiritual Baptism In and By
My Mere and Blessing Presence). In The Way Of The Heart, The Direct Revelation Of The
(Inherently Perfect and Necessarily Divine) Mystery Of The
True Heart-Master Is The Key To The Process Of Spiritual,
Transcendental, and Divine Self-Awakening, but I Am Seen In
My Ultimate Mystery Only By those who Have Heard Me, Become
Open-Hearted To Me (Free Of The Motive Of self-Contraction
In Relation To Me), and Received The Baptism or Tangible
Blessing Of My Spiritual (and Always Blessing) Presence
Through Contemplative (Devotional, or Feeling , and,
Thereby, Really self-Transcending) Regard Of Me. Therefore,
It Is Only By True and Effective Fulfillment Of The
Beginners Practice Of The Way Of The Heart (Whether
Primarily By The Devotional Exercise Of Faith Or Primarily
By The Devotional Exercise Of Insight, and To The Degree Of
Real, True, Stable, and Responsible Spiritual Awakening)
That The Fullest (or Truly and Fully Spiritually
Responsible) Relationship To Me As The True Heart-Master Is
Realized. My Great Statements and Confessions Are Not Public
Announcements Calling For casual belief. The Great
Statements and Confessions I Make Relative To My Inherently
Perfect Work (As True Heart-Master), My Submission As
Servant (Done In Order To Teach), My Self-Nature (Realized
As The Divine Self-Nature), and My Mere and Blessing
Presence As The Heart Itself Are (With All My Uncommon
Speech) Ecstatic Confessions To those who Listen To Me With
The Heart, and To those who Hear Me At The Heart, and To
those who See Me As I Am . Those Confessions Are Directly
Obvious As Truth Only To The Heart Itself, and To those who
Have Been Directly Awakened To That Obviousness By My Great
Transmission Of The Heart. My Great Transmission Of The Heart Becomes Effective
Progressively. And It Becomes (or Can Become) Spiritually
Effective Only In The Case Of those Of My Listening Devotees
who Hear (or Most Fundamentally Understand) My Word and (On
That Basis) Become My Spiritually Awakened (and Spiritually
Responsible) Devotees, Steadily Open-Hearted In Relation To
My Mere and Blessing Presence. Therefore, Even Though All My
Listening Devotees, and All My Hearing Devotees, and All My
Seeing Devotees Resort To Me As their True Heart-Master (or
Hridaya-Samartha Sat-Guru), A Functional Distinction Must Be
Made Between My Role (or My Reception) As Heart-Teacher (Of
Listening Devotees and Hearing Devotees) and My Role (or My
Fullest Reception) As The True Heart-Master Of Seeing
Devotees. My Heart-Revealing Word and The Great Opportunity To
Practice The Way Of The Heart In Devotional Relationship To
Me Should Be Openly Communicated To all. And The First Call
Is To Listen. First Listen (and Respond At Heart) To Me As
Heart-Teacher (Present In The Form Of My Full-Given Word, My
Storied Leelas, and My Bodily Human, and All-Giving, Sign)
and (In A Responsible and Progressively self-Surrendering
Manner) Begin The Counter-egoic Struggle With the
conditional self, Whether (Primarily) By The Devotional
Exercise Of Insight Or (Primarily) By The Devotional
Exercise Of Faith. It Is Only When That Ordeal Has Become
True Hearing and Then Real Seeing That any individual Is
Called To Demonstrate Full Responsibility (Whether
Technically “Elaborate” Or Technically “Simpler”, or Even
“Simplest”) For Spiritual Practice In Relation To Me As The
True Heart-Master (Fully Encountered In My Spiritual
Blessing Function and, Ultimately, Truly and Fully “Located”
As The Heart Itself), and, Thus, By A Progression Of Means,
To Realize Transcendental (or Self-Existing) Divine Freedom
and Self-Radiant (or Inherently Spiritual) and “Bright”
Happiness, or The (Inherently Perfect) Truth That Neither
Depends Upon Nor Can Ever Be Destroyed By conditional
events. My Work As Heart-Teacher and My Struggle To Generate The
Teaching Argument (Of The Way Of The Heart) In Every Detail
Is Complete. Hereafter, those who Are Interested Will Simply
“Consider” My Always Heart-Revealing Word and Leelas, and
they Will Practice True Devotion To Me (By Means Of
self-Surrendering, self-Forgetting, and More and More
self-Transcending Feeling-Contemplation Of My Own and
Revelatory and All-Giving Bodily Human Sign). Now My Work Is
Only That Of The True Heart-Master, Standing Free, Always
Blessing all To Listen To Me and To Hear Me and To See Me
Where I Stand. And Only those who Have Heard Me (and Are
Moved To Practice The Ordeal Of Spiritual, Transcendental,
and Divine Self-Realization) Can (In Due Course) Also See Me
With, and At, and As The Heart. The Way Of The Heart Is The Progressive Practice or
Ordeal Of self-Transcendence (or ego-Transcendence) and Of
Spiritual, Transcendental, and Divine Self-Realization, and
That Practice or Ordeal Is The Progressive (and, Ultimately,
Inherently Perfect) Demonstration Of The Eternal, Ancient,
and Always New Way Of The Siddhas, The Free Descended (or
Incarnate, and Also Eternal) Masters (Who Realize, Reveal,
and Are The Revelation Of The Divine Person, In The Context
Of Any or All Of The Advanced and The Ultimate Stages Of
Life). Therefore, From The Beginning, The Way Of The Heart
(Whether In The Manner Of The Devotional Way Of Insight Or
In The Manner Of The Devotional Way Of Faith) Is The
Eternal, Ancient, and Always New Way Of self-Transcending
Devotion To The Divine Person, Via (and As)
self-Transcending Devotional Communion With The
Siddha-Master (or Sat-Guru). And (As Confessed By All My
Listening Devotees, and All My Hearing Devotees, and All My
Seeing Devotees) I Am The Free Descended (and Eternal)
Maha-Jnana-Siddha-Master (or Hridaya-Samartha Sat-Guru) Of
all who Practice The Way Of The Heart, For I Am The “Bright”
Revelation Of The Divine Person (In The Inherently Most
Perfect, or Seventh Stage, Form and Manner). By Virtue Of Divine Self-Realization (and The Spontaneous
Regeneration Of The Siddhis, or “Bright” Blessing Powers,
That Spontaneously Accompanied My Divine Re-Awakening), I
Made My Self Available To All Kinds Of Listening Devotees,
For The Sake Of their own Divine Self-Realization. During
The Many Years I Functioned As Heart-Teacher and Generated
My Heart-Revealing Word and Argument, I Also Fully
Communicated The Way Of The Heart, and By All Of That, I
Made My Self Forever Available As Heart-Teacher To any one
who (As My Formally Acknowledged Devotee) Listens To Me (or
Even Hears Me), and (Most Fully) As True Heart-Master To any
one who (As My Formally Acknowledged Devotee) Hears Me, and
Receives Me, and Sees Me. Then, When My Teaching Work Was
Complete, I Retired From The Ordeal Of Teaching, In Order
Simply (or Merely) To Be Present, and Thus To Magnify My
Blessing To the world. Therefore, I Remain (Thus), Ever and Forever Now. And I
Am (Thus, As I Am ) To Remain (Forever) Perfectly Effective
(Even After, and Forever After, The Physical Lifetime Of My
Bodily Human Form). And (Even After, and Forever After, The
Physical Lifetime Of My Bodily Human Form) I Will Remain
(Thus, and Inherently Perfectly, and Most Directly)
Effective By Means Of The Continuous Work Of My True (and
Formally Acknowledged) Instruments, Progressively, and In
Due Course, Including All My Formally Acknowledged and True
and Truly Seeing Devotees who, As Formal Members Of Either
The Lay Renunciate Order Or The Naitauba (Free Daist) Order
Of Sannyasins (Also Known, Simply, As The Free Renunciate
Order), Practice In The Advanced and The Ultimate Stages Of
The Technically “Fully Elaborated” Form Of The Way Of The
Heart, and My True (and Formally Acknowledged) Agents,
Including My Heart-Revealing Word, The By Me Empowered
Retreat Sanctuaries, and My Formally Acknowledged “Living
Murtis” (who Are To Be Specially Chosen, During, and After,
and Forever After, The Physical Lifetime Of My Bodily Human
Form, and In every then present-time, From Among those
Formal Members Of The Free Renunciate Order who Constitute
My then Living Formally Acknowledged “Bright” Gathering Of
Fully Awakened “Free Renunciate” Devotees). Therefore, Now and Forever, My Every Listening Devotee,
and My Every Hearing Devotee, and My Every Seeing Devotee
Will Be Given Appropriate Access To My Word, My Leelas, My
Given Sign, and All My Blessings (As These Are Preserved,
and Otherwise Transmitted, Within The Serving Culture Of All
The Formally Acknowledged and True Instruments and Agents Of
My Great Work), and The Realization (By Grace) Of The Divine
Person and Condition Will Thus Always Continue To Be Served
By My Great Means. If any one Wonders How This Can Be So, Let him or her
Study The Great Tradition Of The Esoteric Spiritual,
Transcendental, and Divine Realization Of Truth. Let every
one who Will Study The Great Tradition Understand That,
Although The Way Of The Heart Is A New and Most Full
Revelation Made Under (and Also Prior To, or Beyond) the
circumstances arising During The Physical Lifetime Of My Now
Speaking Bodily Human Form, It Is Also (Most Simply) The
Eternal and Ancient “Secret” Way That Is The Seed Of All
Religions. If any one Doubts That All This Can Be Real, Let him or
her Simply “Consider” My Word and My Leelas, and Observe
(and Feel) My Bodily (Human) Sign, Until The Reality Of The
Way In My Blessing Company Is Authenticated By The
Heart. (4.39) If any one Is Interested In The Realization Of The
Heart, Let him or her First Submit (Formally, and By Heart)
To Me, and (Thereby) Commence The Ordeal Of
self-Observation, self-Understanding, and
self-Transcendence. If any one Realizes My True Fullness In That First Ordeal
(Whereby Most Fundamental self-Understanding Opens The
self-Contraction Of The Heart), Then Let him or her Go On To
Practice The Fully Spiritual (and Necessarily Ecstatic, or
Inherently self-Transcending) Way Of The Heart, Which Begins
(As Such) When My Mere and Blessing Presence (That Washes
and Forgives all In An Instant) Enters The Heart. Therefore, Let all those who Listen To Me, and all those
who Hear Me, and all those who See Me Pass To and Through
All The Necessary Stages Of Life By Grace. Let every one else Be Happy. My Heart-Blessing Freely
Goes To all. I Am The One I Have Declared My Self To Be. I Am The One My Listening Devotees, My Hearing Devotees,
and My Seeing Devotees Come To Know and (Openly) To Confess
Through Loves Revelation In Satsang with Me. I Am The Man Of Understanding, The Heart-Teacher Of My
Listening Devotees and My Hearing Devotees, and The True
Heart-Master Of All My Seeing Devotees (and, In Truth, Of
Even All My Devotees). I Am Always Already Spontaneously Present, or
Heart-Born. I Was Man-Born (or Made Apparent) By A Free Descent Of
The Spirit-Force, and Thus By Means Identical To Those
Through Which The Divine Person Embraces The Likeness Of
every one Of Man. Therefore, My Method Of Teaching Was Likewise To Identify
With Mankind as It (Apparently) is, and To Submit To The
Company Of human beings as they (Apparently) are. As I Did This, I Constantly and Spontaneously Reflected
each one To himself or herself, Thus To Awaken Real
self-Observation, Most Fundamental self-Understanding, and
The Free Capability For self-Transcendence In each one. I Did This In Love (Freely, Openly, and Not limited by
convention), and (Through My Recorded Word and My Storied
Leelas and My Now and Hereafter Ever-Given and Revealing
Sign) I Will Always Do This In Love, Until My Listening
Devotee Hears Me, and Fully Acknowledges Me In Love, and
Receives The Baptism Of My Mere Presence (or My
Heart-Blessing That Transmits The Power Of Divine
Self-Revelation), and Freely (Fully) Embraces The Ordeal Of
self-Transcending and God-Realizing (or Divine
Self-Realizing) Practice. I Am The First (and The Only One Necessary) To Do This In
The West, but I Have Come For all beings. Each one Is My Beloved. Therefore, I Always Love and Serve You With Great Humor,
Tolerance, Forgiveness, and Blessing Power. You Must Likewise Love Me (As one Loves, and Honors, and
Feelingly Approaches, and Serves ones Heart-Teacher, and,
More and More, As one Loves, and Honors, and Feelingly
Approaches, and Serves, and, Ultimately, Most Fully
Spiritually Communes With ones True Heart-Master), and You
Must Likewise Enlarge Your Service To Me (Even In The
Context Of Your Apparent relations with all beings), By
Transcending (and Thereby Renouncing) The Habits and
Reactions Of egoity (or self-Contraction). The One and Entire Great Tradition Of All Mankind Is The
Unique Circumstance Of My Appearance and All My Work. Therefore, In Order That You May Rightly Honor and
Understand Me, Observe Me Standing Free Forever In The Great
Tradition and Circumstance Of all and All. Observe Me Standing Free Everywhere In The Great
Tradition, In Every Historical Period. Observe My Likenesses
In all times and places and cultures, but Know That My Word,
and All My Work, Is My Own. Observe Me Now, Standing Free Among Those Who Served My
Re-Awakening During The Years Of My Own Ordeal Of
Realization. Rightly Understand and Always Honor The Lineage
Of Blessing In Which I Stand Blessed, but Know That My Word,
and All My Work, Is My Own. My Full-Given Word, and The Extraordinary Play Of All My
Work, Is The One Great and Complete Revelation Of The Divine
Person To Originate and Develop In The West, but My Every
Word, and All My Work, Is Given For The Sake Of all
beings. Aham Da Asmi. Beloved, I Am Da, The “Bright” One, The
Divine and Only Person, The Heart Itself, The Only and
Divine Self Of All and all, At Last Appearing In The West,
and I Have Come For The Sake Of all beings. I Have Come In Response To a world that Has Lost The
Essence and The Fullness Of The Great Tradition Of
Spiritual, Transcendental, and Divine Self-Realization. My Every Word Is Given Freely, For The Sake Of All My
Listening Devotees, and All My Hearing Devotees, and All My
Devotees who See Me. Therefore, My Every Word Is Given To every one who Is My
Own, In Every Stage Of Life. My Teaching-Revelation Of The Way Of The Heart Is Not
Defined, Characterized, or limited By The Ascetical
Orientation, or The Strategic Effort To Withdraw From
Apparently conditional, phenomenal, or psycho-physical
Existence. Even So, The Way Of The Heart Requires The Total
Conversion or Reorientation Of conditional, phenomenal, or
psycho-physical Existence, and The Perfect Fulfillment Of
The Way Of The Heart Requires Perfect (and, Thus, Inherently
Perfect) Transcendence Of egoity. Now That My Teaching-Revelation Is Full, I Have Firmly
and Finally Entered Into The Blessing Phase Of My Work. Now I Am Merely Standing here, To Bless and Awaken all By
The “Work” Of My Freely Given Sign. Now and Hereafter, Since I Am No Longer Active In My
Original Play Of Teaching Work, all those who Turn To Me
Must Come To self-Understanding Through (Formal)
Feeling-Contemplation Of My (Now and Hereafter) Ever-Given
Sign, and (Formal) “Consideration” Of My Full-Given (and
Always Heart-Revealing) Word, and (Formal) “Consideration”
Of The Storied Leelas Of My Teaching Work and My Blessing
Work. My (Formally Established and Formally Acknowledged)
Community (or Total Gathering) Of Listening Devotees,
Hearing Devotees, and Seeing Devotees (Which Community, or
Total Gathering, Includes Even every individual who Is A
Formally Acknowledged and True Practitioner Of The Way Of
The Heart) Is Called To Grant Right and Formal Access To Me
(In Person, and Even Also Via The Representations Of My
Bodily Human Form), and To Grant Right and Formal Access To
My Instruments and Agents, and To Communicate, Advocate, and
Confess (or Truly Confirm and Affirm) My Always
Heart-Revealing Word and Leelas To all who Would Listen To
Me, and To all who Do Listen To Me, and To all who, Having
Listened Well To Me, Have Truly Heard Me. My (Formally Established and Formally Acknowledged)
Community (or Total Gathering) Of Listening Devotees,
Hearing Devotees, and Seeing Devotees Is Called To Extend
(or To Be The Extension Of) My Human Regard, Demand, and
Help To all who Would (and To all who Do) Listen To Me, and
To all who Hear Me, and To all who See Me. And My (Formally Established and Formally Acknowledged)
Community (or Total Gathering) Of Listening Devotees,
Hearing Devotees, and Seeing Devotees Is Called To Provide
Appropriate (and Even Sacramental) Access To My Mere and
Blessing Presence (To all who See Me, and Even To all who
Are Truly Prepared To Contemplate My Spiritual, and Always
Blessing, Presence, and My Very, and Inherently Perfect,
State), and Otherwise To Provide all who See Me (and all who
Are Truly Prepared To Contemplate My Spiritual, and Always
Blessing, Presence, and My Very, and Inherently Perfect,
State) With Appropriate Access To “Lay Renunciate” and “Free
Renunciate” Devotees (and To Sacred Places, and Other By Me
Given Means) That Are Truly Empowered (and Formally
Acknowledged, By Me, During The Physical Lifetime Of My
Bodily Human Form, or, After, and Forever After, The
Physical Lifetime Of My Bodily Human Form, By The Successive
Gatherings Of Formally Acknowledged “Lay Renunciate” and
“Free Renunciate” Devotees Directly and Formally Extended
From Those “Lay Renunciate” and “Free Renunciate” Devotees
Formally Established and Formally Acknowledged By Me During
The Physical Lifetime Of My Bodily Human Form) To Act As
Instruments (or, In The Case Of By Me Empowered Places and
Things, and In The Case Of Specially Selected “Free
Renunciate” Devotees Awakened, and Uniquely Conformed To Me,
In The Seventh Stage Of Life In The Way Of The Heart, Even
As Agents) Of The Transmission Of My Word and Heart. I Have Given and Called Upon Many Means For The Sake Of
The Divine Self-Revelation. Therefore, and By These Means, Identify Me, Feel (and
Thereby Contemplate) Me, Realize Me (Ultimately) As I Am ,
and Do Not Ever Withdraw From Me. I Will Never Withdraw From You. Abide With Me In Faithful Love (Always, and Even From The
Beginning Of Your Practice Of The Way Of The Heart). And Be The Champion Of This Practice That Is The Way Of
The Heart. Therefore, My Listening Devotees, My Hearing Devotees,
and My Seeing Devotees Should Be My “Bright” Advocates In
this world. The Transcendental (or Perfectly Unconditional) and
Inherently Spiritual Self (Of all, In all, Who Is As all) Is
God-The Source, The Substance, The Ultimate Condition, and
The Very Being Of the conditional or Separate self of each
and every conditionally Manifested being, and Of conditional
Nature Itself. The Way Of Be Heart Is To Realize and (By Means Of
Realization) To Be The “Bright” Spiritual, Transcendental,
Perfectly Unconditional, Divine Self. The Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, Perfectly
Unconditional, Divine Self Is The Only One Who Is . All conditional appearances, all relations (and The
Feeling Of Relatedness Itself), all others and otherness,
and All Separateness Of Presumed self Are Apparitions Made
By Apparent Modification Of Self-Existing, Self-Radiant, and
(Necessarily) Divine Being (Itself). As Soon As The Awareness Of conditional Nature arises,
The Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine Self
May Also Experience The Illusion That It Is Not Itself, but
That It Is a conditional self (or egoic body-mind) among
others in a conditional world that it Cannot Account
For. From Then On, There Is The Struggle To Achieve
ego-survival Against opposition and To Achieve Joy. If such an ego-“I” Encounters The Person or The Word Of
One Who Has Realized The Truth (and Who Is Thus Consciously
Being The Self-Radiant, or Inherently Spiritual, and
Transcendental, or Unconditional and Self-Existing, Divine
Self, In Person), Then The Way Of Divine Self-Realization
Can Become Attractive, and A New Way Of Life Is Possible.
However, The Struggle As a conditional self (Even To The
Degree Of Non-Response To The Revelation Of The
Transcendental, and Inherently Spiritual, Divine Self) Tends
To Continue, Until The Heart Listens and (By Hearing and
Seeing The Truth) Opens (By Grace) To The Way That Is The
Heart Itself. The Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine
Self, In The Context Of conditional Nature, Is (It Appears)
a conditional self (or Even A conditional Contraction In
Relation To conditional Nature). In the egoic case, The
Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine Self
Falsely Presumes Itself To Be limited and Threatened, and
Associated With A Great Power and Multiplicity That Is Not
The Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine Self.
Thus, The Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine
Self Feels Identified With a conditional body and a
conditional mind, and the conditional body-mind Thus
Functions Not Only As The Means For Perceiving (and Relating
To) all that Is Not-Self (or Apparently Not The
Transcendental, and Inherently Spiritual, Divine Self), but
it Also Functions As The Seat Of Contraction From all that
Is (Apparently) Not-Self. The Way Of The Heart (Whether In The Manner Of The
Devotional Way Of Insight Or In The Manner Of The Devotional
Way Of Faith) Begins with The Process (or Ordeal) Of
Listening, or A “Reality Consideration” Of the conditional
self and How it Operates As self-Contraction. This Becomes Hearing, or Most Fundamental
self-Understanding, Operative As The Free Capability For
self-Transcendence. When Sympathy With the self-Contraction Has Fully Relaxed
By These Means, The Beginners Original (or Foundation)
Feeling-Motive Toward self-Transcendence Is Uniquely
Magnified and Activated, Such That It Becomes A Directly and
Comprehensively Effective Impulse. When That Impulse Has (Thus) Become Really (Directly, and
Comprehensively) Effective, The Same Feeling-Motive, or Open
Heart, Goes On To The Next Stage Of The Way Of The Heart,
Which Is Seeing, or Heart-Attraction (and Spiritually
Activated Heart-Response) To My Spiritual (and
Spirit-Baptizing) Presence (and, Thus and Thereby, To The
Spiritual, and Spirit-Baptizing, Presence Of The Divine
Person). This Spiritual Heart-Response (or This Spiritually
Activated Devotion To Me, and, Thus and Thereby, To The
Divine Person) Permits An Infilling with The Divine Spirit
(or Self-Radiance). (4.90) And That Infilling (or Constant Baptism) Permits
The Fully Responsive Practice Of The Way Of The Heart, So
That, By Stages, The Theatre Of egoity Is Outgrown In The
Fullness Of Divine Self-Realization. As Spiritual, Transcendental, and (Ultimately) Divine
Realization Becomes (Progressively) Profound, The
Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine
Self-Position Is Assumed More and More Directly (and,
Ultimately, Inherently, and, Thus, Perfectly), and
conditional Nature, conditional others, conditional body,
conditional mind, and conditional self Are (Ultimately)
Transcended In The Self-Radiant (or Inherently Spiritual)
and Transcendental (or Self-Existing and Perfectly
Unconditional) Divine Self. Therefore, It Is Realized That There Is Only The
Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine Self, and
That The Not-Self (or All Apparent Separateness and
otherness) Is An Illusion or An Illusory (or Merely
Apparent, Un-Necessary, and Non-Binding) Play Upon The
Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual) Divine Self. Thus It Is Realized. There Is Only Love-Bliss,
Self-Existing and Self-Radiant. And, By Merely Being That,
The Deluding, Binding, and Joy-Suppressing Power Is
Transcended.
