A perception beyond the physical

Right now your whole perception of life is limited to five sense organs – seeing, smelling, hearing, tasting, touching. These sense organs, in the very nature of things, can perceive only that which is physical.

It does not matter whether you want to know the process of creation or you just want to live peacefully, what you need to do is enhance this erception to its ultimate level, to know the Ultimate, or at least enhance your perce-ption to some level where your body, and mind, and emotion, and energy hap-
pen the way you want them.

Anything that is not in your awareness does not exist for you. And only what you are aware of, you can handle and do things about. If you carefully examine it, you will see a large part of you is not in your awareness.

If you bring more into your awareness, an inner perception of life not limited to the five sense organs, you will see suddenly your life begins to happen on all levels the way you want it.

When I say “an inner perception,” I am not referring about some airy things. Let us start from the mundane. If your perception is beyond the senses, and food appears in front of you, you can simply know how this food will behave in your system. But this perception is today being lost by human beings.

All the activity that we are doing in our lives whether you are a doctor, a policeman, an engineer or whatever you are, fundamentally, your perception of what is right now in front of you decides the effectiveness of who you are, and how much you do on this planet.

Any human being who is willing to dedicate just a few minutes of his life per day can begin to know this. Because it is not sitting somewhere in the Himalayas, it is within you. What is within you is not inaccessible to you.

You are just too busy and enamored with what is happening outside. You never paid any attention to the inside. It is just lack of attention which has denied people this possibility.
