Thought for the day

How can we transform the Akhanda Bhajan that we participated in into true surrender? Bhagawan gives us an important message today.
You declare that you have surrendered, but that is just a verbal statement. If you sit in a car, you go along with it; on a cycle, you move with it; on a horse, you go wherever the horse takes you. But, in this case, you say, and perhaps you believe that you have placed yourselves in My hands, and so, you are going along the path I have laid down. But, your mind and your heart are not fully in Me and so, the surrender is only in name. As a sign of this deed of surrender and in order to sustain it, nothing more is enjoined than constant remembrance of the Name. No regimen of exhausting Sadhana (spiritual discipline) is prescribed. Smarana (remembrance) is enough. You have sung Bhajans extolling the Names which summarise the Glory all through the night. But this is only an appetiser. Bhajan must become an unbroken stream of bliss on your tongues and in your hearts; it must confer on you the uninterrupted awareness of Soham — of the Unity of I and He, of ‘This’ with ‘That’. It is called Akhanda Hamsa Japa—uninterrupted repetition of the Hamsa mantra, Soham. It will ensure freedom from anxiety, fear and grief.

- Divine Discourse, Feb 21, 1974
The state of constant remembrance of God can come only through long practice; it will not be acquired suddenly. So, strive for it steadily. - BABA
