THE WORLD AND ITS OBJECTS

          The MasterSaints tell us, are all constituted of five elements, namely water, earth, fire, air and ether . Every thing contains one or more of them . Man who has been called the top of the creation, whom God made in His own image, the microcosm that holds the microcosm,the pot of clay that has God within it, has all the five elements . The first category of created things has only one element, namely, water, and comprise the entire botanical kingdom . If we, who passes five  elements, worship plants and trees, we will make no spiritual progress, so the botanical kingdom are not worthy of our worship and contemplation . The second category of created things is that of the insects and reptiles . They have two elements active in them, namely, earth and fire . They also, therefore, are not fit for our worship . The third category is that of the birds which have three active elements -water, fire, and air, and worship result is the same as above . The fourth category is comprised of animals, which lack only the element of earth, possession of which would give them the power of discrimination . The fifth category is that of human beings themselves, who have in them all the five elements .
          One is naturally prompted to ask why one man should worship another, when all people are said to have equal rights . Nobody has seen any of the many gods and goddesses, so on one can contemplate on their real forms . We can not understand the speech of animals, so they are not able to give us spiritual guidance . No one knows the form of God . Because of this we are puzzled about what or whom we should worship . Master Saints solve this problem giving us an illustration that is eyes for us to understand .                 
          If there are a number of T.V.sets which are not connected with electricity, no matter how much we play them in, if, however, we connect them with electricity, we can play them in to give us news or music from anywhere in the world . In the same matter, we have to find a God-Man who has His body on earth but His soul in Satyalok,and who is therefore constantly in communion with the Lord .
          Christ says :-    "He that seeth me seeth Him that sent me" ---( John 12/45 )
          Through contemplation on the form of the Master we go back and merge in the Lord . The drop joins the ocean and becomes the ocean .
          When we become concentrated and one-pointed at the eye focus, we discover for ourselves that there is a sweet melody or The Divine Sound there which emanates from the house of the Lord . This sound is the heritage of all mankind, whether they are rich or poor, young or old man or woman ;Hindu,Muslim, Christion or a Sikh, he alone is on the Truth Path who focuses his attention at the Third Eye and contacts this Divine Melody .
          The Master-Saints call this practice " dying while living ", for by withdrawing our consciousness to the Third Eye and listening to the music of the Sound-Current,the mind and the soul come out of the tomb of the body and become free from world and, forgetting the troubles and miseries of the world and enjoy eternal bliss.
          It is only when we leave the nine portals of the body and bring our thought-currents to the eye focus that we reach the gateway to the Lord's Mansion . Our real home, where resides our Lord . The entrance to it is at the Third Eye and it can be easily recognised, because at that point there resounds the Sound Eternal, The Word . So long as we remain away from this point and do not catch hold of the Sound-Current, salvation remains a distant dream .  Christ refers to this point when He says :---  " Seek and ye shall find, Knock and it shall be opened unto you ."-- ( Matthew 7/ 7 )
