How Electronic Devices Are Robbing Our Time
What do you think of time? Time is a game of our own creation.
Yes, definitely. Otherwise, how do I tell you what time to come for dinner. We all become timeless. How do I invite you for dinner, tell me?
We are all slaves to it.
We don’t have to be slaves to it. It’s a device that we use for our convenience. If you don’t divide this day into 24 hours, would you know when to come here for dinner? It’s a convenience. Where’s the question of enslavement?
I come when I’m hungry. It comes even if it’s here.
You may come when you’re hungry, but there may be no dinner when you come. You may not feel hungry til 1:00 AM. That doesn’t mean it’s dinner time here. Any convenience that we create for yourself, time or money or a car or any technology that we created for our convenience, out of unawareness, we get enslaved to it. There is nothing wrong the devices that we create. There’s nothing wrong with a car. There’s nothing wrong with the money. There’s nothing wrong with the time. You got it enslaved to it out of your unawareness. That’s the problem, isn’t it? Time is not the problem. Money is not the problem. Car is not the problem. Any other technology is not the problem. You got enslaved to it. That is the problem.
Enslavement happened because you are unaware. Your unawareness is the problem. How to become aware? What is this awareness? Awareness is in many different levels. What you are aware of is all that exists for you. This must be understood. Right now you’re sitting here. Don’t turn back and see. Right now there is a huge dinosaur standing behind you. You’re not aware of it. Does it exists for you? No. So it doesn’t matter. Such a huge animal is standing there. You are not aware of it, so it doesn’t exist for you. So only what you are aware of exist for you. Right now your awareness is limited to small aspect of your life. Whole aspect of spirituality means to become aware of everything that you are so that before you go you know life, you experience life, in its totality, to live totally. To live and to live totally, that’s spirituality, so that you know life in all dimensions. You don’t go just knowing a little part of your life. You want to know all of it.
If you want to know all of it, how? If we have to use an analogy, let’s say we turn down the voltage for the lights. Now, let’s say just one light is there; it just lights up only that much. Only that much we see. If you turn up the voltage, suddenly you’re able to see much more, because the light has spread. Awareness is just like this. Right now your energy, your body, your emotion, your mind, everything is functioning at certain limited voltage. You crank up the voltage, suddenly you start seeing so many things which were not in your experience til that moment.
So, in a way, to put it very simply, to put it technically, you need to turn up your voltage, the life voltage within you. Today, she was saying she doesn’t want to sleep because she wants to live. If you don’t want to sleep, I don’t want to sleep will not take away sleep. You turn up your voltage, suddenly no sleep. You can turn up your voltage simply with your enthusiasm, but that will not take you all the way. There are other kinds of technologies to turn up your voltage in a certain way where all the time you’re high. See, within myself right now I’m absolutely drunk. Not with alcohol, okay? I never touched it. I’m totally drunk within myself. Am I balanced enough and logical enough to handle any situation? Yes. So all the time I’m fully drunk on one level; another level I’m perfectly sane.
If I want to flip, any moment I’ll flip. If you are like this, inside you’re fully charged, outside you’re controlled. This is what’s needed in your life if you want to experience life in it’s totality. You will try to exercise control over your life and you started putting this control over the very process of life, so life is happening like a trickle. Life within you should happen like huge explosion, but outside it is fully controlled. You will see initially when you go into your phase like this, even the outside tends to happen like an explosion for some time. But within a limited period of time you will gather control over it, outside is controlled, inside is an explosion. That’s how it should be. Every moment of your life, within you life should be an absolute explosion, outside of you it is properly controlled.
When it’s like this, you will get to use your physical body, your mind, your emotion, everything that you have to its fullest extent. Things that you never thought you were capable of, suddenly you start doing, simply because your voltage is full.
