The Quiet Mind

Speaker: Henry Kashouty
Date: July 1988
Time: 66 Minutes
Location: Los Angeles Sahavas

The discussion of this talk centers around Henry Kashouty’s understanding of a number of Baba’s words, sayings, and messages. During the Q&A, Henry shares his story of his first meeting with Baba in New York, 1956. Here are some examples of Henry’s understanding:

Baba says “Be cheerful”. Henry goes further by explaining if you are cheerful for any other reason than Baba, then you are doing it for the ego. Baba tells us to be positive. We must do it for Baba.

Conviction – Conviction is a gift from God and is given when the soul ready. Conviction means you already have the nazar of the master and to not have to be thrown from one extreme experience to another. This means you are removed from the path of impersonal karma.

Balance of heart and mind – The heart has to dictate the policy and the mind to implement it. An awakened heart is creative. Just saying hello is creative when the heart is awakened.

Remember Me – To think of Baba is to be desireless. Baba says put Me first. You hear the heart by remembering Baba. Anything that reminds you of Baba is good. Paradise is here by remembering Baba but we are distracted by other things.

Henry summarizes his understanding of Baba messages by saying Baba gave us one message: Remember me, Obey me, Love me, and Surrender to My will.

The title of this video comes from Henry Kashouty’s own practice of finding Baba within by quieting the mind.
