I am reminded of one of the beautiful example Mother once remarked to a seeker after the programme. The seeker asked ‘Mother what was I in my past life’? Mother smiled and remarked ‘does it really make a difference if I had told you were a donkey or a king in your past life ? Would it change your present status or your action’? So these two aspects are as important as anything.

On one hand, we may recall our glorious past referring our great mythology or history or great works, Inventions and discovery. Not to speak of God’s creation from Adam and Eve to our evolutionary history. They are all knowledge of past upon which we build our present.

Someone rightly said once’ Wisdom is achieved through Experiences and Experiences are invariably derived through our past foolishness.(I am just joking!!! Ha Ha Ha)

Dinosaurs came and went and the lower animals evolved they are all studies and research of past. We cannot forget them. But we are not to get confused with our dark past and crashing through our emotions which may spoil our present also. It gives the balloon over right ear an inflated status. On the other hand the planning future will certainly create ripples over the balloon over the left ear.

So the discussion is on wisdom what we must discretely do and to be in thoughtless we have to be in present ….our present. That is another aspect.

Thank you it is such a nice and sweet discussion. Thank you Ioana for this beautiful composition that we have absorbed so much and leave a scope for each of us to introspect on our own part of consciousness and awareness.

Mother says all human beings are ‘conscious’ and they are ‘aware’ too but of gross materialistic object that they learn by picking it up from their childhood experience. But, Mother says the realized souls have been blessed by a higher awareness by which they enjoy a greater secret of subtle knowledge and discuss such sweet topics. Thank you.

No one is trying to deny the past. But to always live in past is to remember the sadness and unhappiness.

Future has not happened and to always think of future is when you forget to enjoy the beautiful present. And to be in the present is where the balance is. Divine is in the present and that is most blissful to be.

Thanks for the reaffermations.

It is really a question of knowing what is worthwhile… “knowing what to bring forward from the past”

Many of the wonderful deities from Sahaja Yoga are from the past… and they form the essence of the mantras and stories that we can choose to embody…

It is about knowing what to leave behind, the very stuff that gets in the way of knowing the truth that always has been, is and will be…

So being in the present is about knowing what should be at any moment we ask that question… and also… in the future is to be fully conscious in the present…

For me then… the past, present and future are all “one”… when one is fully conscious

So much joy living in the present.

As advised by Adrian I am blowing away the past and the future and feel so light and free.

Thank you.
