The Problem of Letting GO

In maharaj's teachings there is a recurring theme. When people ask him: what should I do? He says: do nothing. Which is not very helpful to somebody looking to be put to work. What he meant is, do not effort, just flow, do what comes naturally. You'll notice this over and over and he is completely uncompromising with it, as with every other aspect of his message. There is no superstition and very little belief involved in Maharaj's teachings. But there is some belief, so what is it? Another quote, and again, I'm paraphrasing:

"What I'm giving you is the scientific method, so current in Western science...." That's from I Am That.

And the reality is, he's telling you the truth. All you have to do is follow what he said as if it was an experiment, and you'll see what results you arrive at.

There is a problem in modern society in letting go of control. There is a scary feeling as though by letting go we are putting ourselves at risk of doing some crazy. As Wolinsky said, "you won't do it." But don't take the word from me, just go there and see.

Finally, I want to explain the idea of the Guru. The Guru IS within.

And when you do EVERYTHING the Guru tells you to do, you can cross the barrier into true Wisdom.

So who is the Guru?

You.
