How Maya Sneaks Up On Us | Ananta on Advaita

See how we get set up for Maya, by Maya itself. It's like, usually it doesn't come in one shot. First softens us up. You had a good evening immersed in God. Then it'll start pulling us into other topics. And then how do I deal? How do I cope? How do I manage? And gets us back in the me mode. There is no such me.

So we keep God in the center of your frame. Like a moment spent remembering God and a moment just moping about the me. A complete waste. What did Jnaneshwar Ji say? Without Hari Nam, man vyarth jaave. You're just wasting the opportunity to remember him. Like we have an instrument which can remember God, or it can mope about me, me, me. What do you feel like is the contrast, the level difference between the two things?

So don't give it a chance to, because it's prepping you already. It's getting you into that mode already. Obviously it'll then, it becomes self-fulfilling in a way. Becomes prophetic in a negative way. That once you are expecting it to be like that, then you're already in the me mode. Then that me is very fertile for suffering.

So don't wait for suffering to return to God. Just stay with God.

So you can... Don't wait for suffering to return to God. Just stay with God.
