Always come back to your reality.

You are Consciousness. But you are identified with your projection called 'the
person' . Your goal is to merge your personality with your Consciousness.

To win over your ego, you must go beyond it.

'Self' state / 'I am' state/ Awareness state

Having found the Self, stay with it!

Rules Page 1

1) Do not ask for favors.
Understanding:
▫ Asking, wanting, seeking, etc. are forms of desire. Desires empower one's
personality. If you do not ask anything from others due to your pride, it binds you to
your personality, but if you do not ask for anything, simply because you do not want
to trouble others, then it frees you from your personality.
Exceptions:
Ask only when there is an absolute need, and repay it 2fold with love and gratitude.

2) Give up expectations.
Understanding:
▫ The expectation is a desire. Others are not responsible for your desires. You do not
expect much from a child because you know that the child is ignorant. When it comes
to adults you expect them to act right because you are convinced that they must
know. But, it is not so. Only spiritual knowledge gives a person the maturity to act
right. Without that no one can act right. So, just as you are ok with the child's
ignorance, you must be ok with the older child's (adult's) ignorance as well.
Exceptions:
▫ If you expect something from others, accept both kinds of results; the fulfillment or
non-fulfillment of your expectation.

Rules Page 2
3,4,5

3) Do not be pushy.
▫ Let people be as they want, and things be as they are. Your wanting things to be
a certain way strengthens your personality(body-mind identity).
▫ You may act upon things the first time, if it won't work, take the clue and drop
that act.
Exceptions:
▫ Sometimes your role may demand you to chase the people to get things done - it
is ok as long as there is no egotistic/selfish motive behind it.
4) Do not resist.
▫ Your resistance appears in the form of thoughts and actions. It happens because
of your belief in certain concepts that support your personality. Concepts are
unlimited and are gathered through experiences, desires, and fears. To change or
remove the concepts is like plucking each leaf with an intention to kill a tree.
▫ It is tedious to get rid of every established belief. Non-resistance can be
achieved only by knowing yourself as pure consciousness and being in it all the
time.
5) Fulfill people's needs.
▫ The ignorance you see in others is just the conditioning that their mind has
acquired over the lifetimes of experience. Ignorance and weakness in others need
to be pitied, not shunned.
▫ Practice being conscious every moment, and you can serve the whole world
effortlessly.
Exceptions:
▫ Sometimes wants are disguised as needs. Learn to ignore the wants while attending
the needs, yours or that of others.

Rules Page 3

6) Person Vs Consciousness
▫ Judging, assuming, dwelling in memories, anticipating etc. are of the 'person' nature.
When you drop those, you are in conscious nature.
▫ Express your conscious state of being in your daily sacrifice of desires and fears.
7) Ignorance
▫ Selfishness, jealousy, arrogance, manipulation, imposing, insensitivity, meanness, greed,
cruelty, etc., all springs from ignorance (not knowing one's 'Self '). Mistakes happen
only in ignorance. When you surrender your 'person' nature to the almighty, you come
out of your ignorance.
▫ Do not hate the ignorant. They help you to exercise your tolerance, forgiveness,
compassion, and unconditional love. Moreover, there's nothing in others that you
haven't seen inside of you, onetime or the other, in the form of anger, greed, lust,
infatuation, pride, and jealousy of varying degrees.
8) Recognize God!
▫ Recognize God's presence in your heart. When you recognize him, he comes to the
foreground and your mind goes into the background. Just as churning is necessary to
separate the butter from buttermilk, so is the struggle necessary to push over your
stubborn mind and bring God into the forefront.
▫ Break the shell of memory & thought by being conscious, moment by moment.
▫ Whatever happens is within God, to keep this awareness throughout the day is
'constant meditation on the Self.'

Rules Page 4
9,10
9) Do not protect your 'person' identity
▫ Your person identity lies in your memories, beliefs, ideas, roles, and so on. As long as
you defend them, you cannot get past your false identity. Only when you allow the
'person' in you lose the game that you can actually win and know your astounding
reality. Detachment from your personality is Self-knowledge.
10) Take effort, loss and pain as they come.
(non-resistance to what is)
▫ Do not question loss, pain or effort that you go through. Just understand that when
you ask for a coin, you get heads and tails. Here, the coin is your desire and the
heads & tails are your gain and loss, pleasure and pain etc.
▫ Check where your desire lingers… Are you material-dependent? Emotions-dependent?
People-dependent? Materials bring joy along with the fear of loss, the struggle for
their maintenance, and fear of addictions and habits. Emotional dependency may comfort
you in the beginning, but it will constantly keep you in the fear of losing the comfort
you are accustomed to, from your near and dear. When disappointed, there's a danger
of becoming resentful or revengeful. 'People dependency' may get you going, but at
the same time, it will take away your opportunities to develop the strength to be by
yourself in times of need.
▫ Do not try to extract joy from things and people until they dry out. Be content with
that which is offered freely. Anything demanded will also bring in the tail side of
the coin.(disappointment, loss, effort, pain)

Rules Page 5
11,12,13
11) Be conscious of your beingness
▫ Be free from memories, anticipation, expectation, resistance, fear, desire, likes &
dislikes, choice & control…
▫ Have unconditional love, service, compassion, choiceless-ness, fearless-ness,
acceptance, surrender, sacrifice, prayer, forgiveness, awareness…
▫ Free of expectations and desires, unattached to emotions, acceptance of pain, insult, or
injury, endurance, forgiveness, compassion are possible only in your conscious state.
Hence it's important to be conscious moment by moment.
▫ To be conscious mean to be unattached to your mental activities like emotions,
perceptions, logic, memories etc., and become choiceless.
*Consciousness: Having the sense of 'being', free of body and the mental
structure; a sense of awareness, of aloofness, of fearless & desireless presence.
12) Perform your duties unattached
▫ When you perform actions, accept both possible results, like Success & failure; gain
& loss; pleasure & pain; joy & sorrow; happiness & sadness; ease & effort;
praise & censure; fulfilment & disappointment ; comfort& discomfort etc.
13) Toddler souls
▫ When you see people acting immaturely, causing hardship to everyone around them,
understand that they are toddler souls, yet to grow. Just as you don't expect a
toddler to act perfect, you must not expect the toddler souls to act right.
▫ Employ patience, understanding, let go of what 'you' want, let go of what is right, let
in the mistake, let in the loss, let in the effort…(provided they are not serious).
When you let things be, your mind is free; When you hold on to things, your mind is
busy.

Rules Page 6
14

14) Resistance
▫ Sadness is an unpleasant emotion. There's no need for you to take any action to come
out of it or indulge in it. Just notice that it is there. Just as happiness is a
pleasant sensation, sadness is an unpleasant sensation. They are just there. If you do
not want to experience those sensations, then you must deal with their causes, not
the effects.
▫ Surrender to the situation. Remember the karmic law - 'what you give is what you
get'. It means, whatever effect you face is the effect you've sent. Do not fight it,
do not try to run away from it, just sit through it and it will pass.
▫ Stay conscious of your actions. Maintain discipline (selfless, choiceless, unconditional
love and service) with your thoughts, words, and actions.
▫ Show your conscious living in the daily sacrifice of your desires and fears.
▫ Focus on the internal, then the external will fall in place.
▫ Come out of negative emotions. Do not entertain hate, anger, greed, jealousy etc.
They create extreme bad karma, and bring you lack of peace.
▫ Anger is the result of your old concepts like: 'I do not want to be disrespected. I
do not want to be controlled' etc., To win over this negative emotion called anger, it
is crucial that you bring in the new helpful concepts immediately.
Example,
▫ You may say, 'disrespect, or control coming towards me are the results of my own
karma, let me pay it off gracefully by surrendering to Nature's will at this
moment'.

Rules Page 7
15

15) Material gain Vs Happiness.

▫ Real happiness is in the contentment, not in the pursuit. In the pursuit of happiness,
there is anxiety, fear, disappointment etc. Even after an achievement, you'll find
that the happiness is short lived, and the mind wants something more. This will
exhaust the body-mind.
▫ After all that hold, all that pampering, all that protection, there comes a time to
let go of your body-mind. Lack of dispassion, lack of acceptance, and lack of
spiritual practices, one suffers the separation from physical and emotional bondage at
its height.
▫ It's extremely important to understand the greater truth about one's nature as
consciousness and discard the false notion about oneself as the body-mind, before
leaving the body.
▫ Though the dream may be enjoyable, it doesn't last long; though the body-mind gives
you a sense of being, it doesn't last forever.
▫ Identify your beingness to be independent of your personality and stay with it.
▫ Do not be the body-mind. Be the observer of your body-mind.

Rules Page 8
 16

16) It is what it is!

▫ Your intellect perceives information. It may bring forth the underlying motives behind
people's actions. Sometimes, they are facts and sometimes they are clouded by your
assumptions, judgments and fears. Whatever it is, it is just there. Now, you are left with
two options with that information.
▫ One, you may choose your 'person' identity, where you use that information to fight with
all that doesn't comply with you; to get things going your way. Here your actions bring in
consequences and keep you in the paying and receiving loop.
▫ Two, you may choose your 'conscious' identity, where you don't hold on to your memory. You
forget what people did and you are not bothered what they intend to do as you are more
inclined towards seeing the one connected soul. Here, you observe, you give way, you take
what's offered with humility and gratitude, and you relinquish choice and control for selfish
interests. Within your capacity you can make choices that help you walk straight towards
your goal.
▫ Know that forgetting is forgiving. Forget people's mistakes, and weaknesses. Develop
strength to tolerate discomfort and inconvenience.

Rules Page 9
 17
17) Do not try to fix your imperfections, instead
strengthen your merits.
▫ Imagine two kids playing on a sea saw bench. When one raises up the other automatically
goes down. Similarly, when you work towards improving your good qualities, all other
imperfections slowly fade away.
▫ Connect with the soul in all, ignore your mind's interpretations about them. If you want
to make lemonade, irrespective of lemon's sourness, the water must always stay neutral.
Just like that, irrespective of people's bitterness, you must stay neutral in your
attitude.
▫ Do not worry about your habitual behaviors. When you become the observer of your
mind, your actions inevitably turn out to be beneficial to all.
▫ It's important to be conscious, so you'd not give back the hurt you receive from others,
for any reason. The negativity that comes to you from others is designed by your own
reactions in the past. Do not repeat the same reactive behavior. Instead, take it as an
opportunity to strengthen your acceptance and surrender to nature's will .

Rules Page 10
 18,19
18) Speech
▫ Your words are just the output of what you contemplate in your mind. Most times, when
you are unconscious about your higher nature, you get carried away with what goes on in
your head. Much energy is dissipated due to thinking and talking.
▫ Avoid speaking when your words are not useful to anyone and when they are just there to
pass the time or establish your 'person' identity. Remember to filter them out before you
speak.
▫ Hear, rather than wanting to be heard. You can't learn when you don't listen and you can't
listen when you talk.
▫ Do not speak when you are emotional as you may end up hurting others. Right words come
only when your mind is clear.
19) Do not blame others for their ignorance
▫ Do not hold anybody accountable for the mistakes they commit out of ignorance and
weakness. If you can do wrongs unknowingly, so can others. If you deserve to be forgiven,
so do the others.
▫ Those who have spiritual knowledge will not cause pain to anyone, for they see themselves
in others. Theirs is the soul-vision, hence the perfect view, and all others have the mind-
vision hence their distorted view. The soul sees one, while the mind sees many. In
separation, there is limitation and imperfection. In oneness there's expansion and perfection.
▫ You must change your vision. And this is possible only when you bring your attention back
to your beingness, moment by moment.

Rules Page 11
 20,21
20) Say:
▫ I am not the body. I am not the mental functions. I am the observer of these things.
▫ Stay as an observer of your life movie without trying to change it for your personal
wants.
▫ It's like this: The finished movie cannot be corrected by the spectator but if the producer
wants, he can make the changes anytime and re-release the movie. Here, the mind is like
a spectator; incapable of making any changes. Consciousness is like the producer. When it
is brought into the front, the changes inevitably happen.
21) Attitudes attract opportunities
▫ You entertain a desire and it will lead you to an action. Your action creates a 'like' , the
like creates an atmosphere and your mind gets locked in there. The only point of escape
was at the level of desire/want.
▫ Here, it is not the question of having the desires or not having them, but it is the question
of having an empty mind or an engaged mind.
▫ *Empty mind: Focused on Self.
▫ *Engaged mind: Focused on anything but the Self.
▫ When you bring in the attitude of dispassion, silence, and Divine activities, all other lesser
things will eventually fade away.

Rules Page 12
 22,23

22) Those who disturb other's peace do not deserve

peace.
▫ How do you disturb others peace? By acting on your wants and fears.
▫ Example1, You saw a snake, you are afraid that it'll bite you, and you hit it hard with a
stick. Later, you realized that it was a cat's tail, and you mistook it for a snake. This
action, done out of fear, disturbed the cat's peace.
▫ Example2, You desired to look pretty and borrowed some jewelry from a friend. You lost
it by accident. You may pay back the amount for it, but you may not get back the
sentiments they hold towards that specific piece of jewelry. You disturbed their peace
through your desirous action.
▫ 23) It must always be about your 'Self', not about
you!
▫ How to distinguish your 'self' from you? Imagine that you are standing in a pitch-black
room. You can't see your body even with your eyes open, but still, you know that you
exist. That existence is the 'Self'.
▫ Let's say you forgot your name. Do you have to recall your name to know that you
exist? No. Your existence is the very first thing you know. That is the 'Self'.
▫ As you recall your name and recognize your surroundings, you get identified with the
memory, intellect, and body. This is what you call as 'you', an identified personality.
▫ As long as you stay identified with the physical, you act and react. When you recognize
your 'Self' and stay connected with it every moment, all your actions will turn Divine.

Rules Page 13
24,25,26
24) Live spiritually!
▫ When you perceive selfishness, jealousy, arrogance, deceit, or other negative
emotions in others, understand that falling to that level itself is their defeat and
loss. You don't need to top it with your anger and hate. If you display your anger
over other's actions, then it'll weigh you down to their level.
▫ Being free of negative emotions is a great achievement by itself. Then there would
not be any blockages in the flow of your beingness.
25) What to do?
▫ Rigorous refusal of thoughts. Drop all concepts and ideas.
▫ Bring your attention back to your pure 'Self' all the time.
▫ Use all your spare time to keep your focus on your beingness.
26) How to choose your company
▫ A simple gauge is to check your mind's state around your company. If you feel
agitated, drained, or stressed out around them, then you might want to consider
maintaining some distance until you develop strength in your equanimity.
▫ No one is perfect and you can't fix others to fit your comfort levels. You must
develop strength of acceptance through Self-knowledge.
Exceptions: Sometimes you may find your family members to be disagreeable, and
distancing them may not be an option. Here, understand that unless you settle the
karmic account with them, you are not let off the hook. Anything that's coming to
you must have a cause. Pay it off without any resentment.

Rules Page 14
27,28
27) Bring in the 'let it be' attitude!
For Example,
▫ When you feel, 'she is mean' or 'he is unfair'; if you resist it and react to it, then you
are creating an endless loop of action and reaction.
"You must say: It is what it is! I will not budge from my equanimity because I trust
in the universe's power that settles every account fairly in the end. Besides, I have
greater things to ponder over than to worry about the petty issues of body-mind.
From the ignorant:
▫ Do not expect any perfect action.
From some level of spiritual knowledge:
▫ Expect some actions to be astounding and some below their level. It could be because of
the weaknesses that they are yet to overcome.
From the Self realized:
▫ Expect their every action to be helpful and guiding.
28) Pleasure or pain, loss or gain it is all momentary.
Resist none!
▫ No comment (opinions and comments strengthen your 'person' identity. Drop your
personhood for your higher Self)
▫ No judgement (people are molded from their experiences; allow their mistakes and give
them space to grow at their own pace)
▫ No complaint (understand others weaknesses and lack of knowledge)
▫ No interference (do not correct people in any aspect unless asked)
▫ No violence (anger, hate, judgement, sarcasm, insult etc.)

Rules Page 15
29,30,
29) Question yourself!
Q) Do my actions disturb others in any way?
Q) Will others lose their sleep over it?
Q) Will others lose their peace of mind?
Q) Do others have to take physical effort because of me?
Q) Will my presence intimidate them?
Q) Will my words stir up their desires or fears?
Q) Will my thought vibrations and emotions bother others?
If yes, then fix yourself. Don't mind losing as a person to win as Divine!
30) Why is it hard to forgive or let go of other's
mistakes?
▫ A person is a set of habits, desires, fears, memories, concepts etc. And there is
much probability that every conditioned mind clashes with that of another.
▫ As long as you see and feel yourself as an individual being, there will be
expectations & disappointments; right & wrong; good & bad. To be free of these
dualities, you must let go of your limited identity as a 'person' and expand yourself
as Consciousness.
▫ There can never be any perfection in the mind. Perfection is of Consciousness.
▫ Compassion/love is the very nature of Consciousness. When your viewpoint, of being
a person changes, you'll begin to see yourself in others. Your actions will be of
service and sacrifice. There wouldn't be any need for forgiveness as you are
alright with every tantrum thrown at you and every mistake done towards you.

Rules Page 16
31,32

31) Can't control thoughts?

▫ Thoughts arise from the information you gather, and from that which is present
in the subconscious layers of your mind as past conditioning.
▫ Using intelligence, you must make a choice on what thoughts you must encourage
and what to dismiss.
▫ You can steer your life using your intelligence. If you pursue desires or fears
then you steer it towards involvement and attachment. If you pursue knowledge,
then you steer it towards detachment and freedom.
▫ Understand that body-mind are matter that belongs to physical world, but that
which sees through it is Consciousness.
▫ Keep your attention on your beingness and not on thoughts.
32) Bring your attention back to yourself
▫ If you are thinking, ask who is thinking?
▫ If you are watching, ask who is watching?
▫ If you are upset, ask who is upset? (the mind is upset, and you are the
consciousness that knows it)
▫ Your attention must come back to 'you/Consciousness' every time you ask who.
▫ This is meditation on the Self.
Obstacles:
Thoughts, emotions, memories, desires, fears, expectations, worries etc.
> As long as your focus is on your needs and wants of the person you think you
are, you are away from your higher Self.
> Attention must be repeatedly brought back to your 'Self'; to your beingness.

Rules Page 17
 33

33) What's on your plate today?

▫ Take the day, take the people, take the situations, as they come. Do nothing with it. Be
connected with your higher self. You must let things pass while being in the 'I am' state.
▫ People may have expectations, they may vibrate negative energies, their mood swings may
throw whiplashes at you… whatever the day may be packed with, just watch it as it
plays. Be a detached observer of your everyday drama.
▫ Be compassionate and fulfill other's needs, for you are serving the Consciousness in
others. Their mind and it's conditioning is not your concern.
▫ Pity those that do not know their higher 'Self'; forgive their mistakes.
▫ If you think people are responsible for your feelings, you must also understand that you
have no control over their actions. Don't try to change people for your conveniences, just
make yourself immune.
(* Immune: When you see yourself as consciousness, you cannot get hurt. Because
Consciousness is unlimited and as it expands, it'll automatically include all. Inclusion frees
you from hurt. Ego is limited identification; it automatically separates and hence it gets
hurt)

Rules Page 18
 34,35
34) Self Check
Does your action show
▫ Compassion, Selflessness, Humility, Gratitude, Internal silence!
▫ If not, then understand that you may have to go through certain situations or
deal with certain attitudes of the people, over and over, until the above qualities
are achieved.(until you allow your ego to dissolve)
35) Helpful thoughts
*Thinking is resistance to your being.
*When I am conscious, actions happen; When I am not conscious, I do the actions
out of desire and fear/ expectation and resistance.(thereby I bind myself with
my actions)
* Your actions must always follow the path of love, compassion, sacrifice and
forgiveness.
* Your actions must please the lord, not the ego.
* Give all that you can, unconditionally.
* Being strong doesn't mean being insensitive and defensive. It means to stay
above your mind. Your conscious state is stronger than your emotional state.
* Practice putting your attention on 'I am' state, where there's no fear or hurt.
* Drop your mind; drop your ideas; drop your concepts, drop your beliefs, drop
your right and wrongs, drop your emotions, drop your memories, drop your
identity as a person and just be in your natural state of being like an infant!

Rules Page 19
36
36) To remember:
1. Be free of negative emotions.
2. Be unconcerned of your mind and that of others.
3. Be free of self-interests.
4. Be patient, compassionate and serving.
5. Always yield!
6. Be free of your limited self.
7. See the Consciousness in yourself and in others.
8. Give. Do not ask. Be contended.
9. Let go of your preferences, choices, likes and dislikes
(but abide by your principles)
10. Drop the concepts.
11. Deal with the things afresh.
12. No resistance what-so-ever.
13. Practice of selflessness prevents self-preservation or protection, which is actually
the source of all thinking.
14. Compassion keeps you away from negative emotions.
15. Acceptance gives you fearlessness.
16. Don't try to change your feelings or run away from them. Observe them. Sit
through them. Let them pass as they come.

Rules Page 20
37,38,39
37) Take the day as it is served!
There could be expectations from people; their disappointments may vibrate negative
emotions; there could be mood swings; there could be conditioned actions, there could be
fear based or desire based actions… whatever the day may be packed with, accept it as it
is. Be in 'I am ness' . Don't worry if you couldn't fulfill everything expected of you. Just
be compassionate and forgiving as people are yet to move up into their conscious levels.
Take the day, take the people, take the situations, as they come. Do nothing about
them. Always be connected to your higher self. Come back to 'I am' repeatedly.
38) Understanding takes away your expectations.
When people vibrate negative emotions through their selfishness, greediness, ignorance,
immaturity, insecurity etc. you may have to go through disappointments or suffering. Don't
focus on what people say, see where it is coming from. See it as their weakness, and
you'll able to drop all your expectations with ease. Learn to accept people along with their
weaknesses. Embrace the whole world with your motherhood.
39) How to drop the personhood?
▫ By not asking for anything (desire/expectation)
▫ By not opposing anything (fear/resistance)
▫ By keeping oneself in beingness.
▫ Your words, your presence, your choices, your preferences, your control as a person
must end (as being in Consciousness is higher than being a person)!
▫ Be conscious every moment.
▫ Use the intellect to move towards Consciousness and not away from it.
▫ When you expand and include, you don't experience hurt. Inclusion happens effortlessly
when you connect to your higher self.

Rules Page 21
40
40) Don't expect perfection in others or in yourself!
When a person is selfish or a hypocrite, their words don't hold any value. Don't look for
logic or reasoning behind their words or actions as they are mostly driven by negative
emotions, desires, fears or selfishness. Remember that a *spiritually ignorant person
cannot act perfect as their every action will have an underlying motive to satisfy their
ego. Just as you pity the poor, learn to pity the ones that are poor in Self-knowledge.
When people accuse or blame you, don't look at yourself from their point of view. Your
faults are to be known by your own self. Selfishness is the only fault that needs to be
recognized and eliminated. You are not to be accused for any of your habits or behavior,
except if they are selfish, as they are just conditioned by your memory.
With this understanding you must come out of the clutches of your painful memories. If you
choose to flow with your anger, hate and resentment, you'll be strengthening them
unconsciously. If these thoughts get enough attention and energy, they will turn into
actions which will bring out the consequences. To avoid this, you must stop giving attention
to your bad memories. You must pull yourself into the present moment and stay in
Consciousness. Thinking means falling into the mind state.
*Spiritually ignorant= the one who thinks he/she is a body-mind system.

Rules Page 22
41,42

41)The question is:

 When someone controls you through argument or accusation or restrictions, they only
want their desire over that of yours. Now the question is: Are you ready to let go
your desire? Letting go of your idea, your interest, your like, your dislike, is
nothing but letting go of your separate identity as a person. If your ultimate purpose
is attaining oneness, then you must willingly let go of your limited personal identity,
and it has to be total. You climb high only if you let go of the lower rung of the
ladder.
 When something doesn't go your way, there is always a chance to find fault with
everything around, but there is also a choice to let go of those faults. The question
is: Do you want to take that chance or make a choice?
42) slipping into the world
When you entertain your personal interests, you slip away from your Consciousness.
That means when your mind is kept on the thing you desired, it can't be on your
Awareness. Moment by moment, if you slip into your mundane interests, that every
moment you are away from the Awareness.
▪ Keep simple
▪ be natural
▪ use less
▪ give unconditionally
▪ live consciously

43) Think!
So what if your loss is someone's gain?
So what if someone is selfish?
So what if someone is ignorant?
So what if people expect from you?
So what if people hide things from you?
So what if someone did some mistakes?
So what if people are greedy or pushy or arrogant?
So what if someone didn't care, didn't love or didn't appreciate?
So what if someone is petty or rude or cruel?

 It is what it is! See things as they are, not as you want them to be.
 When you let go attachment to your body-mind identity, what do you care how
other person is towards you?
 Mind, whether it is in you or the other, is just an assimilation of gunas. Why hate
the gunas unless you have a motive of gaining some comfort? Seeking any comfort
is attachment towards your false identity.
 How others are towards you matters only to your body-mind. Loose your body-mind
identity and you'll be free from judgments and analysis.
 As long as you see from your mind, you'll see sourness coming out of lemon and
sweetness coming out of mango. When you look through your consciousness, you'll
see that everything is part of you. Then all anger, and all hate dissolves.

Rules Page 24
44
By knowing
that you are Consciousness…
→ You'll be unattached to your false sense of I.
→ You'll not think in terms of fulfilling your interests over that of others.
→ You'll not mind loss, effort or pain.
→ You'll not entertain selfishness.
→ You'll be non-resistant.
→ You'll be least interested in bodily affairs.
→ You'll understand that people's mistakes are due to their bodily identification and
you'll not expect any perfection in their actions.
→ Thus your perception of others actions will not create further chain of thoughts.

Follow:

Non resistance
Non judgement
Non attachment

45) Direct your attention…
Your aim, your energies, your time, and all your resources must be directed towards
your beingness.
46) Challenges help you grow!
How can anyone win over their ego without the help of challenging situations or
circumstances? If people or situations change themselves for you, where is your growth
in it? You can only grow strong in your 'letting go attitude' during the difficulties.
Take your time, cry it all out, but in the end, know that it is what you become out of
these experiences that matter and not what others did to you. Are you going to be
bitter, unforgiving, and revengeful, or are you going to shed the cause of your
suffering which is your false identity, for good? [Understand that your identity takes
the shape of your desires, expectations, control, resistance, fear, and so on]
It may take several attempts to get there. It may require loads of tears and a
protracted battle with your unforgiving mind, but if you can trust and pay attention to
your Consciousness, you've done all that you'll ever need to do!

47) All pain aims at…
When you are hurt, instead of looking at what others did to you, you must look at
what the experience is telling you. It teaches you to have less of 'you'. It wants to
level your ego to the ground. Every painful experience aims at bringing this false
sense of personhood down. It is to make you let go of your separateness and to abide in
Consciousness.
48) Do not talk about your Spiritual practices
with others.
People cannot see your needs, and they can innocently become an obstruction in your
path. Their opinions, fear, jealousy, level of understanding, lack of complete
knowledge, etc., can become a potential hindrance.
49) The challenge!
▫ Accept the challenge of non-resistance.
▫ Know that the blamer and blamed are but one!
▫ Circumstances will not change for your peace and happiness. You must be peaceful
and happy irrespective of your circumstances.
▫ Don't ask people to change for your comfort. Just make your detachment
stronger.
▫ Be thankful for the situations that push you more into losing your bodily identity.

50) As you age…
As the age progresses, your mind becomes more rigid, becomes strongly identified and
gets attached to its beliefs, ideas, desires, fears, people, etc. A seeker of truth must
have some benchmarks on his/her path.
▫ Minimalism leads to contentment
▫ Disidentification leads to egolessness
▫ Knowledge of oneness leads to equanimity
▫ Desirelessness leads to peace
51) You want half and half ?
The good half may give you pleasurable experiences and create nice memories, but it is
the bad side that you must consider.
▫ You'll have to experience the effects of people's selfish choices
▫ You'll have to experience other's negative emotions (anger, greed, jealousy etc.)
▫ You'll have to experience pains and diseases that comes with old age
▫ You'll have to experience the loss of the loved ones
▫ You'll have to experience the pain of leaving everything you've accumulated
You must seek spirituality in total! Let go of your attachment to your 'person' identity by
dropping your mind and seeking the divine in you.

52) What is a 'Person' identity?

You experiencing the world and expressing it through your words, thoughts, and
actions is your personhood. Pure experience doesn't bind you, but if your
experience is associated with desire and fear, then there will be actions and
reactions.
Sometimes, you may have to face people's negative emotions that may cause
hurt, but know that the experience of pain, coming to you through any situation, is
only to help you let go of your false identity. Nature flicks on your head, at
every opportunity, to remind you of this necessity.
Ignorance of oneself can lead to terrible blunders, causing dire consequences.
No one can escape it. You have nothing to do with others ignorant actions. You are
only to take the lesson of letting your false identity go.

53) All effect one and one effect all!

All are responsible for one person's suffering. If you don't want bad in the world,
then you must first eradicate it within you! Your desire, your anger, your fear-
based actions can't be justified. You are partly responsible for the world's
suffering if you choose to vibrate anger and other negative emotions into the
atmosphere due to your expectations, and resistance.
You may not have the strength to change all, but you have the strength to
change yourself. Your change can affect all and in turn all will effect one.

54) When intellect questions something…

At any time if your mind brings up an issue, learn to ignore it and fulfill the demands of
that situation. Your mind might get anxious about the future as it doesn't want to lose the
control, but your lesson is to let go of your control, whether it's in the now or in the
future.
In a situation, you might see negative emotions, selfishness, arrogance, weakness, or a
desire to control in the people who are involved in the situation, but you are not to judge
them. Instead, you heed to the situation and quietly fulfill its demands.
55) Unconscious vs Conscious
The mind gathers information through the senses and it is stored up as a memory. When
the mind, using this information, begins to act, then it is in autoplay mode. This means
unconscious living. Conscious living requires you to deliberately pull your attention away
from memory and imagination towards self-awareness.
