Gopalanand Swami asked all the sadhus, “How do you perform meditation and mānsi?” All of them said, “In mānsi puja we meditate remembering where Maharaj used to sit, and offer food at the place he sat to eat.” Then Swami said, “Has anyone learnt meditation which is performed after overcoming the three bodies?” Then all asked, “How can the three bodies be won over?” Swami replied, “When one sits in meditation and an insect bites, if the physical body is not allowed to move, then know that the physical body has been controlled; and if the meditation is performed without worldly thoughts, desires and wishes, know then that the subtle body has been controlled; and when sleep and laziness are not allowed to interfere in meditation then know that the causal body has been controlled. In this way, control the three bodies and meditate.” At that time Siddhanand Swami said, “The causal body is hard like the black rock mountain and only by much effort can it be controlled. It is like when one wants to cut away stones from a well and one digs using a hammer and chisel, then by evening (only) a basketful of chippings will be removed – that is how difficult it is.” Then Swami said, “If we explode them then 200 cartloads of stones are removed. That is, we drill holes in the form of spiritual discourses and fill them with gunpowder in the form of absolute faith in God and then ignite them with fire in the form of the knowledge of the greatness and glory of God and his holy Sadhu. As a result ignorance in the form of the causal body, which is like the black mountain, is shattered. Thus, after making one brahmarup, we keep one in the service of Maharaj in Akshardham. This is not difficult.”
