Over 2,500 attendees filled TipsArena, an indoor sports arena in Linz, for Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj’s public talk today. He spoke of the ups and downs which are a part of life. These disturbances, such as the loss of a loved one or a major illness, play an important role in our life. Just as a disturbance within an oyster shell sets off the creation of a lustrous pearl in nature, disturbances in our life signal the beginning of the making of a pearl within ourselves.

Out of a disturbance comes the beginning of something beautiful, the spiritual Master said. Digging deeper into our existence to find answers, we discover our true nature as soul, and from there we unravel the characteristics of our soul. As we begin to embody these characteristics of unlimited wisdom, fearlessness, immortality, oneness, unconditional love and bliss, we introduce the spiritual pearls that we need to lead enlightened, calm, and peaceful lives. All these pearls can be experienced  when we focus our attention within ourselves through meditation, he said. This process of inversion awakens us from the illusionary existence of the outer world and uplifts us into the divinity of the spiritual regions.

The talk was broadcast by the local television station LT1 to its several hundred thousand-strong viewership in the Upper Austrian region.
