From the book "Morning Talks", written by Sant Kirpal Singh 1967-10-18, Delhi, Sawan Ashram Talk available as mp3 (5Mb, duration 16:06) at audio.sant-kirpal-singh.org Never hurt anybody. We hurt others by thinking ill of them. We think ill of others, we scheme. This is wrong, as thoughts are very potent. When you think ill of others that reacts to them like a telegraphic wire. You may not be telling anybody anything but if you think of them, radiation is there. Once Akbar, who was a great Emperor of India, was told by his minister that thoughts were very potent and that great care should be taken in what we think of others. Akbar asked his minister how he knew this. The minister said, "All right, I will give you a concrete example. Let us go outside." So both of them went outside and they saw one man coming towards them at a distance of a few furlongs. The minister said to the king, "Look here, just think something about this man in your mind and when he comes near, you might ask him what crossed his mind at that time. You are only to look and think." The king thought in his mind that this man should be shot. The man approached the king and the king asked him, "When you saw my face, what thoughts crossed you mind?" The man said, "Emperor, excuse me, but I thought that I should beat you with my fists and break your head." So thoughts are very potent. If you think evil of others, the other man will react. You should be careful how you speak to people. If you speak ill to another and say "You are a fool" and things like that, or if somebody calls you a name and you react in the same way, what is the result? There will be a flare-up. A man calls you once, twice and that results in a fight. This is by words, their very root is the thought. A man speaks out of the abundance of his heart. Whatever is lying there, those things take the form of words, then words lead to fighting. So don't hurt the feelings of others, in thought, word or deed. Even in very religious places, if a dozen men are working together they start thinking evil of one another, with the result that the thoughts radiate and react in another's mind. You follow my point? The heart is the Throne of God. The body is the Temple of God. If you defile the Throne where God is, then who will sit there? So blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Purity mainly lies in not thinking evil of others, in thought, word and deed. There are other factors too, but this is the main factor. Wherever you sit, even in an Ashram, if one man thinks of somebody else, that goes round like anything. That is just like a plague, an infection. A rat infested by plague goes around and spreads that infection everywhere. So this is a very strict condition, "Don't be the unpaid apprentices of the C.I.D. of God. Don't take the law into your own hands." If you think good of others, you will radiate good. If you purify your mind you will purify the minds of others. By thinking ill of others, we spoil our own Temples of God first and then defile them. Outwardly, we are all right, quite clean, but our hearts are impure. We are defiled by thinking ill of others. We are all parts of the same machinery. If even one part is out of order, the machinery will stop working. So that is why it is said , "Wanted – reformers, not of others, but of themselves". Charity begins at home. We should first reform ourselves. Example is better than precept. So today's subject is "Don't think evil of others, in word, deed and mind". If you think of anybody else, always think good of them. Why? because they are your brothers and sisters in God. God is active in every heart. Our bodies are the Temples of God. If we think evil, first we defile our Temples, then we defile others. Instead we should think, "Peace be unto all the world over, under Thy Will O God." This is what Guru Nanak gave out in His prayer. Let all the world be happy. How can it be happy if you defile everybody! So the foremost thing is, not to think evil, speak evil or hear evil of others. If you come to know something then it is for you to just keep it to your own self and try to privately tell others concerned for their own well being. We should not become reformers of each other. We should reform ourselves first. If we have sympathy for others, we should tell them privately what we think that they are doing wrong. Then the other person will care to listen. If a blind man is there, and you say, "O Blind Man" he will take it to heart. If we simply say, "Well dear friend, when did you lose your sight?" the purpose is served. There are ways and means to express. So speaking, you might say, is an art. The same words that carry a loving and peaceful effect can also create fire. This is what we have to guard against. So we should not think evil of others at heart, in mind, word or deed. God is not difficult to meet, but it is difficult to be a man. Man is in the make. God is seeking after a man who is a man. So when you are ready, God will come and also give you a commission. I went to London, I remember, on my first tour. There were two children about 7 or 8 years old, that were given Initiation for hearing. I asked them, "What do you want?" "We want to become Masters," they said. "All right," I said, "you have been put on the Way, improve, progress on the Way and you might be selected as a Master." God is after finding out some man who is a man, so that His work may go on. It is not for us to pray for this, but for God to select who is fit for the job. Hankering or only propaganda to have that position which is not in man's hands won't do. It is a commission from God. I told the children, "Well, you may become a Master, that's all right. You have been put on the Way, go on with it and you may be selected as a Master." Each one has after all, to come to perfection. It is no sin. Every saint has his past and every sinner his future. This starts where? From our own self. First of all, we should not think evil. If there is evil in your mind, out of the abundance of heart a man speaks. That radiates, by thought and by word. First and foremost, this is the Teaching of the Masters. We should examine our own self and see how we stand, where we stand. Because these things are there, how can we aspire to become Masters! So purity of mind is essential. Let it not be defiled by the thinking of evil thoughts. You should pray for forgiveness. You should also forgive and forget. Generally, we don't forget. We say, "Oh I don't mind," but that poison goes on working in our mind. That affects, sooner or later. So whenever anybody hurts your feelings in word or deed, forgive. Forgiveness is the only sweet water that will wash away all dirt. Justice won't do it, mind that! If you want justice, then that will react. Forgiveness only washes away all dirt. Forgive and forget, this is the way to Spirituality. A man once went to Lord Buddha and began to insult Him like anything. He went on in this way for one, two, three hours, until it got dark. When night fell, he wanted to go away. So Lord Buddha said, "Well dear friend, just tell me one thing." The man asked what Buddha wanted to know, to which Buddha replied, "If anybody brings some present to somebody and if that person does not accept it, with whom is it left?" The man replied, "With the person who brings that present." "Well," said Buddha, "the present you have brought, I don't accept it." So these are the things to be developed in us and lived up to. If you live up to them, your thoughts, your radiation will change. It is not a matter, I think, of acting or posing, it is a matter of living. The Masters used to say, "Those who live up to what I say, I am their servant, they are my bosses. I will serve them to the best I can." Truly any son, who would be obedient to his father and would do all things what he wants, naturally he is most dear to the father. This is not done by mere outward assent, acting or posing, because the mind radiates. The Master knows the mind, not the outward things. These things are not explained in general talks. They are heart to heart talks in which you are being given these topics. The secret of success is to keep your mind unalloyed.

From the book "Morning Talks", written by Sant Kirpal Singh 1967-10-18, Delhi, Sawan Ashram Talk available as mp3 (5Mb, duration 16:06) at audio.sant-kirpal-singh.org Nikada nemojte nikoga povrijediti. Mi povređujemo druge misleći loše o njima. Mislimo loše o drugima, ne želimo im dobro. To je pogrešno, jer misli su vrlo moćne. Kad o drugima razmišljate loše, to na njih djeluje poput telegrama. Možda nikome ništa ne kažete, no kada o nekome mislite, to će zračiti. Jednom je Akbaru, velikom indijskom caru, njegov ministar rekao da su misli vrlo moćne i da trebamo paziti što mislimo o drugima. Akbar je upitao svog ministra kako on to zna. Ministar mu je odgovorio: "U redu, pojasniti ću Vam na jednom konkretnom primjeru. Izađimo van." Tako su obojica izašla van. Ugledali su jednog čovjeka na udaljenostiod nekoliko stotina metara kako dolazi prema njima. Ministar reče kralju: "Sada pomislite nešto o tom čovjeku i kada dođe blizu, upitajte ga što je u tom trenutku pomislio. Samo gledajte i mislite." Kralj pomisli da tog čovjeka treba strijeljati. Čovjek je prišao kralju i kralj ga upita: "Kad si me ugledao, koje su ti misli prošle glavom?" Čovjek mu odgovori: "Visosti, oprostite mi, ali pomislio sam da Vas želim pretući i razbiti Vam glavu." Misli su dakle vrlo moćne. Ako mislite loše o drugima, oni će na to reagirati. Trebate paziti kako razgovarate sa ljudima. Ako nekoga uvrijedite i kažete mu: "Ti si budala" i slično, ili ako vas netko pogrdno nazove, a vi reagirate na isti način, koji će biti rezultat? Doći će do svađe. Netko vas pogrdno nazove jednom, dvaput i sukobje već tu. To se događa zbog riječi, čiji su pak korijen misli. Čovjek govori iz punoće svog srca. Ono što je tamo uzima oblik riječi, a riječi zatim vode do sukoba. Zato nemojte povrijediti osjećaje drugih u mislima, riječima ili djelima.Čak i na vrlo religioznim mjestima, kad nekolicina ljudi zajedno radi, oni počinju misliti loše jedni o drugima – to rezultira time da misli zrače i u umu onog drugog izazivaju odgovarajuću reakciju. Razumijete li što time mislim reći? Srce je prijestolje Božje. Tijelo je hram Božji. Ako zaprljamo prijestolje gdje je Bog, tko će onda tamo sjediti? Zato su blagoslovljeni oni koji imaju čisto srce, jer će vidjeti Boga. Čistoća zapravo znači ne misliti loše o drugima, (ne povrijediti ih) u mislima, riječima i djelima. Postoje i drugi činitelji, ali ovo je glavni. Gdje god da sjedite, čak i u ašramu (spiritualnom centru), ako jedan čovjek misli loše o drugome, to će odmah početi kružiti uokolo. To je poput kuge, poput zaraze. Štakor zaražen kugom ide uokolo i posvuda širi tu zarazu. Zato je ovo vrlo strogi zahtjev: "Nemojte biti neplaćeni pomagač Božje kriminalne policije. Ne uzimajte zakon u svoje ruke." Ako mislite dobro o drugima, zračit ćete dobro. Ako očistite vaš um, očistit ćete i umove drugih. Misleći loše o drugima, najprije prljamo vlastiti hram Božji,a zatim i druge. Izvana smo uredni, posve čisti, no naša su srca nečista. Mi nismo čisti ako mislimo loše o drugima. Svi smo mi dijelovi istog stroja.Ako samo jedan dio nije u redu, stroj će prestati raditi. Zato se kaže: "Traže se reformatori - koji ne mijenjaju druge, već sami sebe." Milosrđe počinje u vlastitom domu. Najprije trebamo reformirati sami sebe. Primjer je bolji od pravila. Zato je današnja tema: "Ne mislite loše o drugima, (ne povređujte druge) u riječima, djelima i mislima." Ako mislite o nekome, uvijek mislite dobro o njemu. Zašto? Zato što su svi vaša braća i sestre u Bogu. Bog djeluje u svakomsrcu. Naša su tijela hramovi Božji. Ako mislimo loše, prvo prljamo svoj hram, a zatim i druge. Umjesto toga trebali bismo misliti: "Mir neka bude na čitavom svijetu, po Tvojoj volji, o Bože." To je bila molitva Guru Nanaka. Neka svi ljudi na svijetu budu sretni. Kako mogu biti sretni kad svakog prljate! Zato je najvažnija stvar ne misliti zlo, ne govoriti zlo i ne slušati zlo o drugima. Ako nešto saznate, zadržite to jednostavno za sebe.Pokušajte to drugome, za njegovo dobro, reći u četiri oka. Ne smijemo postati reformatori drugih. Prvo trebamo promijeniti sebe. Ako nam je stalo do nekog, trebali bismo mu u četiri oka reći što on po našem mišljenju radi pogrešno. Tada će nas on saslušati. Ako vidite slijepca i kažete mu: "O slijepče", to će ga povrijediti. No ako ga jednostavno upitamo: "Dragi prijatelju, kada si izgubio vid?", to će mu činiti dobro.Postoje različiti načini kako se izraziti. Dakle, možemo reći da je govoriti prava umjetnost. Iste riječi koje imaju dobro, smirujuće djelovanje mogu (u drugoj situaciji) zapaliti vatru. To je ono čega se moramo čuvati. Ne smijemo misliti loše o drugima, (ne povrijediti druge) u srcu, umu, riječi i djelu. Nije teško sresti Boga, no teško je postati čovjek. Čovjek je u razvoju. Bog je u potrazi za onim čovjekom koji je većčovjek. Kada ćete biti spremni, Bog će doći i povjeriti vam također neku dužnost. Sjećam se kad sam na mojojprvoj turneji došao u London. Tamo je bilo dvoje djece od oko 7 ili 8 godina, kojima je dana Inicijacija na Ton. Upitao sam ih: "Što želite za sebe?" "Želimo postati Učitelji," odgovorili su. "U redu," rekao sam, "postavljeni ste na Put, poboljšajte se, napredujte na Putu i možda ćete biti odabrani za Učitelja." Bog je u potrazi za čovjekom koji je (pravi) čovjek, tako da Njegov posao može ići dalje. Nije na nama da molimo za to, već na Bogu da odabere onog koji je za taj posao spreman. Besmisleno je čeznuti za tim ili se natjecati, jer ta odluka ne leži u čovječjim rukama. To je ovlaštenje koje daje Bog. Rekao sam djeci: "Možete postati Učitelj, to je u redu. Postavljeni ste na Put, nastavite tako i možda ćete biti odabrani za Učitelja." Svatko na kraju treba postići savršenstvo. Nije grijeh to željeti. Svaki svetac ima svoju prošlost i svaki grešnik budućnost. Gdje možemo početi? Od nas samih. Prvo, ne smijemo misliti loše. Čovjek govori ono što je u njegovom srcu. Ako je dakle u vama nešto loše, to će zračiti kroz misli i riječi. To je najvažnije učenje Učitelja. Moramo se preispitati i vidjeti kako i gdje stojimo. Kako možemo misliti o tome da postanemo Učitelji ako su te stvari u nama! Dakle, neophodna je čistoća uma. Ne dozvolite da on bude uprljan lošim mislima. Trebate moliti za oprost. Trebatetakođer oprostiti i zaboraviti. Obično ne zaboravljamo. Kažemo: "Ma, nema veze", ali taj otrov nastavlja djelovati u našim mislima. Prije ili kasnije to će imati svoje djelovanje. Zato svaki put kada netko povrijedi vaše osjećaje u riječima ili djelima, oprostite mu. Oprost je jedina blagotvornavoda koja će oprati svu prljavštinu. Pravda to neće učiniti, upamtite to! Ako želite pravdu, to će sa sobom donijeti i novu reakciju. Samo oprost pere svu prljavštinu. Oprostite i zaboravite, to je put prema spiritualnosti. Jednom je jedan čovjek došao Buddhi i počeo ga jako vrijeđati. Vrijeđao ga je jedan, dva, tri sata, sve dok se nije smračilo. Kad se spustila noć, htio je otići. Tada mu Buddha reče: "Dragi prijatelju, reci mi samo jedno." Čovjek upita Buddhu što želi znati, na što mu onodgovori: "Ako netko nekome donese poklon i on taj poklon ne prihvati, kome će on ostati?" Čovjek odgovori: "Onome tko ga je donio." "Dobro," reče Buddha, "ne prihvaćam poklon koji si donio." Dakle, to su stvari koje moramo u nama razvijati i prema kojima moramo živjeti. Ako živite prema njima, vaše misli, vaše zračenje će se promijeniti. Mislim da to nije stvar glume ili pretvaranja, već življenja. Učitelji su uvijek govorili: "Ja sam sluga onih koji žive prema mojim riječimai oni su moji gospodari. Služit ću im najbolje što mogu." Otac prirodno najviše voli onog sina koji je poslušan i radi sve što otac od njega traži. Vanjsko odobravanje, pretvaranje i gluma ništa ne koriste, jer um zrači. Učitelj gleda na um, a ne na vanjske stvari. Ove stvari nisu objašnjene u javnim govorima, no o njima pričamo u ovim razgovorima od srca srcu. Držite vaš um čistim – to je tajna uspjeha.
