I am truth

THE RIGHT SOLUTION

Q: How long does one stay in other worlds between birth and death?

M: The sense of time is relative. In a dream, you may live a whole day's events in a couple of hours. In the subtle body of the death-world, you may do the same and live what seems like a thousand years, although by our time it may be only a hundred years.

Q: They say that choice is offered to us to enjoy merits or demerits after our death. Is that right?

M: Why these questions relating to after death? Why ask, 'Was I born? Am I reaping the fruits of my past karma?' and so on. They will not be raised after you have been asleep for a while. Why? Are you different from the one in sleep?

You are just the same in sleep, in dream, and in the waking state. Sleep is a natural state of happiness; there is no misery. 

The sense of want, of pain etc, arises only in the waking state. What is the change that has taken place? You are the same in both but there is a difference in happiness. Why? Because the 'mind has now arisen. This mind arises after the I'-thought. 

The ‘I’-thought arises from Consciousness; if one abides in It, one will always be happy.
