On Space and Time


The Baba said reflectively: ‘Space and time are two sides of the physical reality. They can be transcended with love and creativity. When there is deep love, we can transcend the limitations of space. The lovers sometimes tend to lose awareness of their surroundings. Even when far away from each other, their love remains intense….
‘Similarly, when one is creative, one tends to transcend the awareness of time. For example, an artist who is immersed in his painting can go on for hours and hours together, even days together, without food, drink or rest. A scientist in his laboratory involved with an absorbing research work can also lose track of time. Any creative work takes us deep into a realm of our being where time stands still….
‘Where there is love, there will always be creativity. We want to give our best to our beloved. Love also will bring out the best in us. We display talents that we never imagined that we had. Some people start writing poetry and singing songs, and do many other creative things, which they never used to do before they fell in love….
‘So my son, when you say time is moving very fast for you, it implies you have developed the qualities of love and creativity in your life. It is really good…
‘May God bless you with more of love and creativity.’ 
The guru blessed his disciple.
They had started referring to their weekly interactive sessions as ‘Guruvar Satsanghs’.
Both the guru and the disciple came to look forwad to these ‘Guruvar Satsanghs’.
They always began the Guruvar Satsangh with a silent meditation. The guru then blessed his disciple with great love, and began the discussion on the day’s theme.
