i have been asking this question for long (assuming that al of us pass away at the same time!) and feel that if all of us are no longer there, then i’ll either be born again as jiva and won’t remember my past or i would have become one with Consciousness. In both cases there is nothing to worry about. But if this is not my enlightened passing away, i would like to be born thinking of NARAYANA alone and finally reach Him.
If this is only the final class, i still feel i’ll take the teachings of my Map and Sadguru and work on it until i become one with Them.
Week 19: Feb 13 2024 – Read the last 3 paragraphs of sutra 53 to yourself in front of a mirror. This was very related to the discussion question that was asked: will i be enlightened in this birth? With my complacency here and there i said ‘Work in Progress!’ but after reading Gurudev’s verses, i feel this should be my ‘Taraka Mantra‘. Reading in front of the mirror was asserting this point. Will work hard.
