Seeing the Diamond
Dadi has always had the ability to see right
through me. Right through to the to the heart of
me. She first saw me via a photograph of me that
my mother showed to her. Dadi studied the photo
and said 'bring her to Madhuban'. Every time my
mother would meet Dadi or every time she went to
Madhuban my mother would show her my picture and
tell her about me. Later when Dadi visited our
centre it was the time we met face to face. She
looked at me the way a gemologist looks at a
unique, uncut, unpolished diamond. Her deep
loving gaze pierced right through my flaws and
gave me the courage to believe in myself.
If it were not for Dadi's flawless gaze, I don't
believe I'd be here living a purpose-filled
diamond like life; a life of love for God; a
life of kindness.
Dadi on this 100th year of this incredible
lifetime of many lives, I simply say, "Thank You
for the flawless vision."
Words of Wisdom:
To become a flawless diamond one has to leave
the habit of looking at others. A diamond does
not need to look at anyone else. We diamonds are
individual, separate from others and so we have
to look at ourselves. In the soul-conscious
stage, create such a deep relationship with
Baba, that you do not see anyone apart from
Baba. One becomes a diamond through the power to
discriminate. One who wants to become a diamond
is attentive to remove all flaws – not a single
flaw should remain. My thoughts should remain
clean and peaceful. In Baba’s remembrance, such
a soul becomes the form of light and draws in
might.
There are 365 days a year and every day I ask
myself ‘Why have I come to Baba? What is the
purpose of my life?’ My life is to take might
from Baba and give light to others. Others
should receive light through our service and our
stage. Visualize how your life should be. Work
on yourself in a deep subtle way.
The world is in distress. Time is calling out.
We must now share with others whatever we have
attained from the Father. Give others the
experience of the original stage by giving them
the experience of the rays of peace and love
from the Father. Remain equal to the Father, so
that nothing but the Father is visible.
Drishti Point:
As I live my daily purpose-filled life in the
love of God, I let my vision fall on the
flawless diamond within each one and with my
ability to see right through to the core and
essence of each one, I fill them with the belief
that in their original state they too are
flawless.
Karma Yoga Exercise:
As I move and carry on with my daily tasks I
stay connected to the source of all powers and
light. I am light, I am love, I am peace.
