I am termed as a ruthless teacher by some of my students. I acknowledge that, and thank them for their kind words.

Love, cruelty, mercy, harshness has different meaning in different context. From where I come from, love and compassion has a completely different meaning and expressed in different way. From the world I operate, the way I express love, to most people it might look cruel or harsh.  

Let me give an example that most of us can understand. I saw an overweight mother feeding junk food to her overweight child with love, because she does not want to hurt the feelings of the child. This is what I call cruelty. Operating from compassion, I would rather deprive the child from the junk food he loves, and feed him healthy food, even if he does not like it and calls me cruel and merciless.

That was just one example of junk food. People in the world are addicted to junk thoughts, junk knowledge, Junk possession, Junk habits, Junk passion and Junk beliefs. They have a constant craving for it. Separation from those does cause excruciating pain, and swell their emotions. I have no regards for those emotions. I ruthlessly crush those emotions and drag my students out to the real world, to the abundance of happiness and extraordinary power and intelligence.

There are many layers of universe. There are many level of consciousness. Every human being is capable of going to the higher consciousness. People in higher level of consciousness can understand the world of lower level of consciousness. But people in lower level of consciousness cannot even imagine the world of higher level of consciousness. 

The transition from one consciousness to another is like birth of a baby.  The baby inside mother’s womb is in the safest place in the world. The baby in womb has no knowledge of the world outside, but people outside could imagine what a baby in womb go through. In mother’s womb, It is warm, and cozy, no responsibility and no sorrow. However, that is not life is all about. The baby has to take birth to a cold and noisy world. Baby cries aloud while coming to world outside.  Mother does not feel sorrow looking at the crying baby, rather she feels happy. The sorrow of the baby has no meaning for the mother. Because mother knows that, the life fulfills only by coming to outer world. Similarly, the transition to the higher consciousness is painful for some, but, that is the only purpose of life. The pain is however momentary, after that follows extraordinary peace, love, and happiness.

Out of billions of sperms, one reaches the egg and fertilize, and get ready to take birth. Only when the growth is complete the birth takes place. Other billions of sperm die and go waste. Similarly, out of billions of human being only few grow. When they are ready, they move to higher consciousness. All other lives go waste. The growth has to reach a stage for a person to experience higher consciousness, the growth continues and the purpose of life served. If you do not grow to the higher consciousness, your life is an utter waste.

I read that scientists have almost found a way to increase lifespan of human being up to 200 years. I wonder why an unsuccessful sperm would like to live forever. What a laughable and misdirected effort! On a serious note, the way people live their lives today, even 200 years is not enough for them to understand the real purpose of life. Without higher consciousness, life is only all about fulfilling the animalistic and carnal pleasures or pleasure derived from mental fantasies.

What is the nature of the higher consciousness? The world in the higher consciousness is extraordinarily beautiful. No sorrow known in lower consciousness could possibly exist there. People in higher consciousness never get stressed. There is extraordinary experience of freedom. With those comes extraordinary sense of responsibility, they assert responsibility for everything. None of the rule or restriction of lower consciousness exists in the higher consciousness. A person of higher consciousness operates from a place that logically and emotionally does not make sense to people from lower consciousness. The power and resolve comes from higher consciousness is un-imaginable.

Person operates from higher consciousness produces extraordinary quality in whatever he does. They do not associate their work with any result, in other words, they are not attached to the result. They do not do anything for a reason. So a person from higher consciousness might be doing nothing at all, or might be doing a lot and making billions. From higher level of consciousness, there is no difference between the two. When they do, the intensity of their action and the quality they produce is unprecedented.

Let me give an example of how a person in higher consciousness operates. A carpenter operating from higher consciousness, does not make chair to earn money, or to feed the family, or to win prize, or for any other reason. He makes a chair to make a chair. A king rules a country to rule a country. A mason build cathedral to build a cathedral.

The ancient marvels around world are nothing but expression of higher consciousness. Many of those marvels are not possible even with modern technology. There was no purpose of building those other than expressing their higher level of consciousness. They had understood the purpose of life and had achieved it. Those marvels are the footprints of their journey.

Next Generation Leader is a movement to make extraordinary leaders. We make leaders who can transform the world, and that is a serious business. No casualness is acceptable in our operation. It is not an entertainment program or a weekend getaway. It is a life altering transformation.
