Constant Integrated Awareness: WiFi within, WiFi with HIM

What does this mean to you ?

• Please take some time to think about this theme:– Constant Integrated Awareness: WiFi within, WiFi

with HIM

Possible interpretation of WiFi

• WiFi is invisible but it definitely exists; so does our link to God. It may not be visible but it does exist.

• If we are a IPAD and Internet is GOD, WiFi is the critical link that makes the IPAD tremendously valuable. Without WiFi, IPAD has finite and limited use.– So too with us. Without link to GOD we are limited.

• To connect using WiFi, you have to scan for the network first– Similarly, you need to scan your heart and mind to see

where you feel and sense the strong signal.

–HE IS within you.

Setting up the WiFi connection(link to GOD)

• Scanning for WiFi network– Can we possibly see multiple WiFi networks ?

• What do multiple WiFi networks mean in the context of connection with GOD ?

– But a secure WiFi also needs a PASSWORD. • What is our password to GOD ?

• Possible interpretations– There are many paths to GOD. The important thing is to

actually reach HIM.– Just like IPAD “remembers” the password, so TOO we

must remember his NAME. It is that simple.

Using the WiFi connection

• Once you connect with Internet, many things become possible– YouTube/Netflix, Facebook, E-mail, Photo Sharing,

Radiosai..infinite possibilities

• What are some of the things that become possible with our connection to HIM ?

Constant Integrated Awareness

• What does it mean ?

• Why do we need it ?

Constant Awareness(Thoughts from Prof. Anil Kumar)

• “Our experience today is within the framework of our senses and our mind. But our attempt is to know the limitless, infinite, ever-pervasive, omniscient, omnipotent Divinity. This is possible only when we go beyond the senses and the mind. This is what is called awareness.” (Prof. Anil Kumar)

• “Awareness is complete comprehension, total understanding. So that kind of total understanding should be kept in our mind throughout our life. That’s why it is called constant.”

Constant Integrated Awareness

• What are the key barriers to have constant integrated awareness ?

• Life keeps us all very busy. How would one go about having integrated awareness ?

Swami says..

The idea that all forms and all names belong to God is verily Constant-Integrated-Awareness. The experience of sarvan visnumayam jagat, the world is pervaded by Vishnu, is but Constant-Integrated-Awareness. God can be experienced in any form, at any time or place.

Aum Shanti Shanti Shantihi
