Day 10
There are 3 levels of perfection. Perfection in actions, perfection in speech and perfection in your being. Some may do their actions perfectly, but their feelings and their words may not be so perfect.
Some have good feelings, but their actions are not perfect. In tropical countries you find that people feel very good, they speak very nicely, but when it comes to action it doesn’t get done.
In cold climate countries, people’s actions get done but inside they are very rigid, stiff, sometimes angry and upset. But Siddha is one who is perfect in the feeling, in speech and in action.
You can never be 100% accurate in the action, but you can be 100% accurate in the being, in the state of love alone can bring you such perfection. You become so perfect, so complete, because there is no more craving, there is nothing more to achieve.
You are not journeying anywhere. You are at home. He becomes immortal. He knows this consciousness, this being, is not just the body or the mind. It is eternal and immortal, so fulfilled. Fulfillment is one of the signs of Divine love.
If someone is not fulfilled and is frustrated, you cannot say this person has attained divine love. Having attained which, there is no desire left. Nothing to grieve about, nothing to hate, nothing to be so excited about, nothing to be motivated about.
You know for every action there is a motivation behind that action. Something motivates you because you are going to get something out of it. But one who has attained love has no other motivation at all.
Whatever you desire, the ultimate goal of all desires is to be in love. When that is already there, what is there to desire? One of the signs of Siddhi is you have things even before you feel the need for them.
Before you feel thirsty, there is plenty of water. And before you feel hungry, people are already offering you food to eat. Even before desires arise, they are already fulfilled, so where is the question of galloping on a desire?
We are not even aware where our desires are taking us. We are galloping on such a horse of desire, without awareness, without knowing where we want to go, what we want to do, no desires are left to be fulfilled. In a devotee’s heart, as soon as a desire arises, it already gets fulfilled.
Nature awaits to fulfil the needs of one who is in deep love with the entire existence. Buddha has said desire is the cause of misery, of sorrow. When there is no desire arising, where is the question of sorrow? There is nothing to be grieved. They are all linked, do you see that?
You have a desire and when that doesn't get fulfilled, you become upset, sad and when you are sad, you don't want to be in a sad state, so you start hating that person, or that object, or that thing. Hatred is behind the sorrow or the pain.
A relationship causes pain and pain is not palatable to any living creature. So one starts hating the source of pain, not knowing it is one’s own mind. We project that on to the other person, other object, other thing. So then there is no question of hating anybody here.
Nothing to be motivated, nothing to be excited about. Is it a very dull state then? There is no excitement, there is no hatred. Is it so? It does not mean you are devoid of enthusiasm, that you are not enthusiastic about anything or that you are not excited about anything.
