Demolition of the past is a chapter in the Natural Path
the original consciousness, which is pure and unalloyed love.
Now that we have got the Viveka about our tranisitory nature of our life and also understood that we have to alter back our consciousness to its original nature our seriousness in sadhana increases. This is what Master said “The real form of viveka is that when a man begins to realise his own defects and shortcomings and at the bottom of his heart feels repentant for them. (DR-109)”.
To demolish our past the solution is to fully co- operate with our guide/master.
The first thing that we need to develop is “Anukulasya Sankalpa and Pratikulasya Varjanam”. All things which are detrimental to our sadhana must be stopped. Things like movies, magazines etc must be stopped as they do only harm to our state of mind. We should always do things, which will help us to be in the thought of the master.
Demolition of the past is possible with master’s support through pranahuti and by our self-effort. We have the continuous support of the master till we reach the goal. We should do our best to co-operate with our master in all respects. All the instructions from the master must be implemented without any excuses.
We need to develop single pointed orientation towards the master and towards the method given by the Master. Our aspiration should be such that every single thought of ours should be about our master only. This we have to develop consciously. This does not mean repeating his name like a mantra but thinking about his help, his love towards every one, his commitment to solve our problem of life. When we try to think about our master with love and devotion we feel the divine grace
