Ananta teaches that when faced with difficult choices, one should trust the silence of intuition rather than the mind's need for certainty, as life unfolds perfectly beyond our personal calculations.

The silence of intuition is also an answer from intuition.
We can never presume in which way life wants to go or what has to happen.
The idea of right and left, up and down, has nothing to do with reality.

If we could look at a question before we sign off on the land. Father, I have a list today. I have to choose between staying at home, meditating, and following the satsang, but with no money, or going to stay in a psychiatric hospital for one or two weeks in order to get a certificate where we can find help financially. Do you have a feeling about this choice that I have to make now? The question to the air: how to choose between staying at home, meditating, and following the satsang, but with no money, or going to stay in a psychiatric hospital for one or two weeks in order to get a certificate to help me financially? Do you have a feeling about this choice that I have to make?

Ananta

There was one time that is in the past, if it's a long time that's a view, or a seeker fellow who was doing a retreat at home. Somebody came from the Sangha which is about... they were visiting by an NGO for a few days. So he was very, very torn. Then he came to me with this disorder: 'Ananta, where Mooji is visiting back to go and now all we wanted to see, so what should I do? Should I come for the retreat, which I can watch later also, or should I go?' Obviously, some condition here occurs, a known off-using the retreat, other times I can observe this conditional mood stone. So I said, 'Oh, very well, you know, if we think you don't decide with the mind, if the decision is not clear, if you might let life decide and you will know which way to go.' But he said, 'But that means I don't have to be honest and say there was a word that will come true.' So then, as it happened, the thing itself surprised me. The ability didn't come, but the day after that he came in and said, 'Thank you so much for giving that advice. I had to go over there. I'm glad I went. I'm so glad I went because unless I went, I would never have figured out that that's not for me.'

Ananta

So we can never presume in which way life is moving or what has to happen. Sometime life puts us in these kinds of situations where it seems one is leading to this and one to that. It's very strong. It's like with my intuition in this silence, but remember this: the silence of intuition is also the answer of intuition. Remember that the silence of intuition is also an answer from intuition. That can be a difficult answer to swallow because otherwise we feel like, 'I have a cheat for a lifetime and just go to my heart and say, 'Should I go left or right?' and I have become very advanced, I am enlightened, so whatever it can be, the intuition will say right.' So many times, your intuition will just be silent. It's like it used to be more than once. It seemed like there was a time where Bhagavan was not answering 95% of the questions asked. So that was the answer. The not answering was the answer.

Ananta

If you have any... be sure to use to you or receive this great master, simply his son, more insightful, saying that you will become very advanced now. 'I am not able to help you anymore, you have to do this.' This is really an elaboration of something, right? We came to the story of some heart, is your name? It may be visible. So this sage was sitting over there. This student comes and says, 'Master, my master...' Let us see what he should do for the night. 'My master wishes to send me to you because he said you will be able to let this master discipline find me.' Then maybe I suppose we are the fearing master. 'My master wishes to send me and he said that you will definitely help me come to the final truth.' They write a few more times, then as obviously when things don't go as planned, the thought comes and then lower them, or the Vedas. The disciple says, 'You must be fully arrogant and my master must be mistaken. You are not an enlightened being, you know, so I mean, they're not answering anything that I'm asking.' So then this master spoke. He said, 'You have been asking me, you know, I am answering you.'

Ananta

And it's so beautiful. Before I can actually... we have to be rid of this 'yes' and 'no', who can form a right hand or left, and right, up and down. Either this idea, they have nothing to do with reality. At first the mind will fight this. It says, 'But I have to decide whether I go to the psychiatric hospital or go to the satsang.' Like, ask yourself, it is not clear that we will go this time, but I am feeling honest. I am now fully aligned with the standards of satsang. This big money, it might feel like life, but 'Oh my Father, I call you Papa, the least you can do is help me with this simple decision.'
