24th October 1994 P1 – Burn Into this Fire of Eternity
This satsang from the 24th of October 1994 is divided into two parts. In Part 1 Papaji interacts with devotees. In Part 2 Papaji introduces Ramana Maharshi’s nephew, Ganeshan, who shares stories about Ramana.
This satsang contains the following interactions:
. Kathleen: a poem – ‘Reed of the Forest’.
. Radha: “I weep in the darkest hour. My life is your blessing.”
. Eric: “Please show me the way to ultimate freedom. Papaji: “This creation of distance is the deception of the mind. Stay as you are, wherever you are.”
. Ella: “When I trace the ‘I’ thought back to its source I feel detached from the world.” Papaji: “In this space there’s no mind. If you have a burning desire to be free, this alone is enough. This will burn the whole universe.”
. Vedant “In the experiencing of Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the recognition and acceptance of it enough for emancipation in this life? Papaji jokes about Vedant’s women and explains Nirvikalpa samadhi. ” Nirvikalpa is when no desire arises from the mind.” Papaji talks about a siddha he met in the Himalayas who was very powerful but did not have knowledge – Jnana. Papaji threw away his staff and imparted knowledge to him.
