How a unique conclusion is drawn by “Ma-Mahajnan”

Is there, indeed, anything anywhere?

Prosad : 'A weak mind is prone to fear. Fear is another name for ghosts. A stout mind contains energy. Energy is another name of God.'—If that's true, why do you now say—'We have to recognize Energy owing to the weakness of our mind.' Doesn't that lead to a contradiction?

Mother: A wise, strong and reasoning mind recog¬nizes or looks for Energy. It is in that sense that I said—Only a stout mind contains energy. Owing to a remarkable strength of mind, he can deal with many subjects but not all. When reason comes to the end of its tether, a man has to put his faith in something or other.

Neither Form nor Formless, but there's something to rest on. That's referred to as 'Energy'--the moment a man accepts the principle of Energy—he takes leave of reason. However great his strength of mind may be, he becomes weak at that very moment. So I say, it's the weak man who accepts the principle of energy. If a man can't reason, he lands himself in confusion and at the bottom of that confusion lays fear, unrest dissatisfaction, and apprehension--so on and so forth.

Part of my mind accepts energy and the other part rejects it, too :

There's something called energy, yet it isn't there. There's everything, yet nothing.

Prosad: I don't understand anything about energy or things like that. But you made a reference to 'Supreme Energy'.

Mother: Yes, I did that being fully aware. I have got to put up some figure-head, haven't I? Otherwise what's this energy? There's absolutely nothing. The energy which comes of bodily strength—which enables you to perform various kinds of work— the highest form of that Energy resides in God. Hence we say—He confers Energy.

Where did the word 'energy' come from? When people looked at 'energy' they conceived the highest manifestation of knowledge behind it. They imagined something vast. This is nothing else but that. People saw manifestation of energy and they imagined all that about energy.

Prosad : So part of your mind accepts energy and the other part rejects it, too.

Mother: Right you are. Besides, this mind of mine accepts Form. You speak of Formless; I'm with you there, too. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Be all things to all men. So all this is necessary. You go up step by step and you'll understand everything.

But don't give out what you understand. What can you have by just giving out? You may make it known, but don't ask anybody to go that way. That way is highly inaccessible. So don't assure them by saying that there's no such thing as Energy. That will cause confusion.

There's no question of rejection. I'm for accepting everything.

So much do I think of Him,
Whom I neither know
Nor can recognize!
Lovely He is, I fancy.
Many a garland do I weave
To put round His neck.

0 Thou, lovely one!
I've seen Thee within me—
And have painted Thy figure.
I only think in my fancy
Thou wilt appear indeed.

He whom I don't know
Nor have recognized,
Will possibly come—
Step into my room.
Thus I do up this room of mine
Expecting a guest.

So I went round among all men
I culled from each one
Anything lovely that he has.
Still, O Thou! I think
I haven't made a full tally;
Something is still left out
0 Thou ! Still left out.

Roaming round the world
No response do I get;
Who's there, calling me from within?
Somebody, as it were, calls me indeed.
It only echoes 'Ma*—the Mother;
Sometimes it seems to sound
'Na, 'Na', 'Na'—(No, No, No).

Come, come, and come.
All that's mine, I leave behind
I rush forward, further I rush
Something more I'll search
And bring back
I'll adorn, adorn with all so lovely
Lovely to all,
That—That Splendid One, indeed.

So I set in order one by one
All the things to give it shape,
I create a Form.
God art Thou, Energy is Thine,
Thou art merciful.
Thy slave I would be.

(The song, as a whole, is unique. Here's a section has just been hosted to help growing inquisitiveness in the heart of hearts of all rational people.)
