But you have to go beyond illusion; then the gross, the subtle, the mental and God are allhere. Don't think that the gross, the subtle, the mental are higher or lower than each other - all are here. Itis your angle of vision that makes the difference. You begin to see more deeply into the subtle, then moredeeply into the mental sphere, then you take a complete tum and see yourself as infinite. Nothing remainsbut your self."Have you any idea of that bliss? It is continual, without a break, everlasting, never-changing. Babacontinued, saying, 'in a big group, there are big differences. So in Andhra I had to spend a whole night inRajamundry discoursing on work.

As such, there cannot be room foractions of their own: their life is one of inaction but made active because of the prevailing environmentalcircumstances. Actions of Perfect Masters are prompted by the environmental atmosphere prevailing."
