TAKE THE ADVICE OF HAFIZ

Bhau Kalchuri

 
[At Guruprasad during the East-West Gathering, November 2, 1962] He [Baba] asked Dana Field, "Are you worried? Didn't you hear what Hafiz said, not to grieve?

"Who else is worried?" No one answered.

"If no one is worrying, I have to worry. But my worry is great fun for me! It is a very old habit of mine to worry for the whole creation, to worry continuously for the release of souls from the bondage of life and death.

"It is great fun! Some come to me to heal their diseases, to bless them with better prospects, or for a job, or for children, or because they have too many children! And I have to worry about all those things in addition to my universal worries."

Baba continued, "You see me sitting here with you, but I am simultaneously on all the planes of consciousness, on all those stations on the chart that is here before you. There are souls in the subtle world who want me, and I am there with them. And there are those in the mental world who want me, and I am there with them.

"You are in the gross world, so you find me with you in the gross world. Those in the subtle world find me in the subtle world, and those in the mental world find me in the mental world. And one rare one who finds me as I really am is blessed.

"But remember not to worry. Take the advice of Hafiz and do not worry. Do not grieve."
