Gustav: About the blocks, last time in your talk, I heard you say something new. You said, “If you want to know the truth - wash your blocks. So, this is like my pathway for you, my students, to know the truth - wash your blocks.” So even if we try so hard to wash the blocks, there must be still something that’s not in my hand, or our hands?
Swami: Trying to wash the blocks also needs a skill, heartfully accepting, “Ok, this is my block, angry is my block, I’m trying to get control.” You have to open your heart one hundred percent - accept it. And having a strong determined heart in front of Jesus or Baba or Guruparampara, “Ok, today onwards I’m totally never ever showing my anger. Even the anger comes, ok, let it cool down."
So, you have to put the strong thought to the soul, to the heart from the mind. You’re submitting very strong determination, like a judgement, like an order to the heart and to the soul, “You take care!” Then in your regular days in the actions in your normal life, again you have to observe if you’re really doing that, or still you’re playing that. So certain points you have to have a strong determination as a dictator. But certain things… if you’re like super addictive, have super attachment - you can’t help that, then slowly you have to cut off. You can’t make strong determination, judgment in that case – gradually cut off then it helps a lot.
