Sign of the Presence of the Spirit
By
Karmayogi
Spirit is old, but the Spirit I speak of is
not known to the world. This is the evolving Spirit, called in the terminology
of this new yoga, Psychic Being. As this version of the Spirit has not been
known at all, the results it brings about also carry its stamp – it acts through
an agency not in existence NOW. This evolving Spirit is seen acting through
newly evolving laws or rules.
A boy foolishly exhausted the four
attempts allowed at SSLC in 1963 and failed. What is the alternative for his
career now, other than becoming a shop assistant? He was an obstinate boy in
every way and was not amenable to advice from any quarter. Someone who had
infinite faith in the Spirit he invoked, gently suggested to this boy that he
accompany him to his own spiritual centre. Luckily the boy consented. Of course,
he was a passive participant in the otherwise LIVE proceedings of the
emerging souls. A couple of days after this visit, the Government changed the
rule so that candidates could take the SSLC exam any number of times. The
faith of the one who had taken him to the centre was redeemed.
Every time
the Spirit acts, it carries this stamp of being new. As it is the evolving SOUL,
it compels life and its rules too to evolve. A village – the first village – got
bank help by the bank changing its age-old habit and offering to help the
farmers. An American author came to India to write a book on Management based on
the spiritual principles of Life. Someone collected a birthday purse without
telling anyone that he was collecting a Purse. Almost all those who contributed
offered their contributions on their own. A salesman was surprised when his
customer offered a ten dollar raise per unit of product over the price quoted. A
client called his consultants at his own expense, contrary to the established
practice in the trade.
