Every one of us is basically in searching for
- A God who can fulfill our desires.
- State of mind where there is no suffering.
We are frustrated with our unfulfilled desires and our mind prevents us from enjoying what we already have. In spite of having many comforts we are not comfortable today. Basically we are not comfortable with ourselves. We are tormented by various emotions like anger, hatred, jealousy, fear, comparison etc., which does not allow us to live peacefully.

We are frustrated with our unfulfilled desires and our mind prevents us from enjoying what we already have. In spite of having many comforts we are not comfortable today. Basically we are not comfortable with ourselves. We are tormented by various emotions like anger, hatred, jealousy, fear, comparison etc., which does not allow us to live peacefully.
Every one of us has tasted moments of pleasure and pain. Pain is unpleasant experience to every living creature. How about pleasure? Let us observe the most intense pleasurable moments of our life. Moments when our son hugged you and whispered in our ears, "Mom, I shall never leave you. I will look after you all my life." Or, those moments when we were recognized as the best performer in our company and given an award in the presence of a few hundred people.
Even a little awareness will reveal to us the accompanying fear with the pleasure. Even in our son's loving embrace our mind starts speaking, "Will this love really last forever? Is it true? What if it changes?" They day after we receive your award, if you find somebody else in your organization proving their efficiency, there arises an immediate fear of him excelling us and taking over our hard earned position. With fear, comes the accompanying sisters – jealousy, hatred, frustration, lack of love … so next time we see our colleague the fear inside us, will make us compare at every step leading to jealousy and gradually to hatred.
One can be liberated from these negative emotions only through the liberation of the mind itself, because the mind is the storehouse of all these negative emotions. Liberation from the mind is Enlightenment or `Jeevan Mukthi'.
It is the cessation of all conflict, of all suffering and the beginning of ecstasy, tranquility and auspiciousness. This altered state of consciousness which as a prerogative of a few saints and sages of the past is now being given to men and women from ordinary walks of life by the Divine Avathars, Sri Bhagwan and Sri Bhagavathi Padmavati Devi.
Sri Bhagwan says, "Man deserves to be happy." To end man's suffering and to take man into this Divine state of existence has been the only desire of Sri Bhagwan and Sri Padmavati Amma from childhood. Sri Bhagwan says, "Enlightenment is the only solution to all problems faced by man today – economically, socially and spiritually." The state of Enlightenment which had been the quest of our ancestors, which has been the essence of the Vedas and the Upanishads, which has been the search of all seers and saints is now being bestowed on us through a process called the `Mukthi Deeksha', at Sri Bhagwan's Oneness University, Golden City at Varadayapalem.
The `Mukthi Deeksha' bestowed by Sri Bhagwan is not an initiation into yet another mantra, sadhana or technique. It is a direct transfer of His power and grace, which will lead us to a state of limitless joy.<< prev next >>
